I don't know where to post this to be honest. I drew these two concepts and thought, "Why not share them?"

Just sketching some concepts... These aren't professional level by any stretch of the imagination. But the more I draw and paint, the better I'll get.

Dwarf Drunken Master Monk

Gnome with Kukris

Hello all,

This is my first post. I am happy to be here.

But I would like your help if you can. I have a few questions and concerns. If you can do anything to address them, it would be greatly appreciated.

I am an aspiring artist and fan of fantasy art (DnD, MTG, Pathfinder, and more). I have been kicking around the idea of doing a submission of artwork. But I am possibly not ready in terms of skill to go the official route and submit via the site. So I am slowly building up a portfolio while working a full time job. It’s hard to find time, but I’m trying. I am not a Pathfinder player either, so certain fine details about gameplay will be lacking (although I do read pages and comments). And that’s where I am hoping you can help me streamline the process.

I am wondering has anyone ever posted their own artwork here or links to artwork here?
Is it completely unrelated to do so?
Would it be annoying or fun to be involved?
Anyone able to give any artistic / style critiques?
Would people be able to provide feedback on things obviously wrong with a picture that a newb would miss? -- Example: “No a wizard cannot equip a sword”.
Must haves - "A halfling ninja MUST have a wakizashi as his weapon".
Or feedback on what they would love to see in artwork? -- Example: “I would like to see a half-orc sorcerer instead of the typical barbarian / fighter role”.
Give suggestions on how to make characters look less cliché? Example: "Wizard always wearing a long robe". Fantasy fashion lessons, lol.

I am currently sketching / playing around with these concepts right now since they don’t seem to have been done yet by other artists:
Mounted gnome summoner
Half-orc scarred witch doctor
Halfling ninja

Of course all of this would be voluntary and not paid (remember, this is a hobby for me at this point). And I will probably not be able to fulfill most, if not, all suggestions depending on how many come in. But I figured this is a route nobody has tried before and it would be fun to see what kind of suggestions I get. It can’t hurt, right?

So let me know what you think. Your feedback is appreciated.
