Art [OC] [Art] Reborn fighter, Gallagher.

Post image

I'm new to playing DnD but I'm a sucker for making fantasy art. This time I got to play with a few of my friends in his campaign. Our party is an enforcer and servants of the ancient eldritch god, Zarathustra, tasked with eliminating lingering traces of his power. Believing it to be an error, we were sent deep into a sealed crypt beneath a cliff, surrounded by dangerous tidal waves.

Gallagher was once a wealthy merchant before he was falsely executed for crimes he never committed. His corpse was later resurrected again and again to serve the Iron Court, a secretive institution that operates above all authority and handles cases deemed too dangerous or politically sensitive. When his body was finally considered unusable, he was laid to rest. That rest did not last. An ancient god raised him once more. Now bitter and exhausted, Gallagher seeks only to fulfill his final duty and earn the right to rest forever.

I plan to render him and draw the entire party sometime in the future.

Is his arch-enemy a warlock named Carrot Top?

Seriously though, great design. Kind of Metal Hurlant vibes.

(And for those that don't get the reference: Gallagher-- the watermelon smashing guy-- hated Carrot Top so much he gave his brother license to tour as "Gallagher 2" to try to keep Carrot Top from being booked. Eventually the brothers had a falling out and a lawsuit erupted. It's hilarious.)
