'It All Starts Here...'

Published:

Description

Done for the #PremiumMembers Group Thursday contest of "enchanted fantasy lineart". I'm not exactly sure if this is what they were looking for exactly...wasn't sure if we were supposed to draw a journey scene, the magical realm/world, or how we got there...but the "Say you got the opportunity to fly somewhere mystical and otherworldly. How would you get there? Via unicorn? Magical train? Angel wings? What would that place look like? It's up to you! " line really stuck out to me 'how would you get there'.

I mused up plenty of images and ideas for this of magical elven forests and whatnot but the HOW would you get there popped this image into my head...the d20. After all, you CAN go on magical journeys through RPGs, both video games and table top. And how have I gone on most of my grandest adventures? Through D&D. It's what really opened up my imagination and took it to new heights. And so I got this image of a close up of the d20 sitting on the 20 projecting the image of an elven mage fighting/squaring-off-with a great dragon and you get to see the corner of the character sheet from that very mage and the pencil and dice and whatnot ....unleashing the journey through dice rolls, character creation, and unfolding plot ^^; You can go on a magical journey into a world where elves and dragons and dwarves and celestials and fiends exist and battle monstrous hordes or devious traps...you can develop and grow into an important world-renown individual. You can throw down evil empires--or build them. You can save the fate of the world, yourself, and your friends with one roll. You can become epic with one critical roll. Or you could roll a 1, critically miss, stab yourself in the foot and die. But who's counting? ;P

Either way...it all starts here.

Enjoy. :D

no references used, except for holding up my d20 so I could try to get the shape of it right. everything else was from the top of my head right to the blank paper ^^;


oh and even if you're not in the group, and even if this doesn't get picked to color...you can feel free to color it if you wish, regardless. just give me due credit ^^;
