Illithid surgery

Description

This is another D&D-inspired artwork. It's an illustration for an adventure book I am writing. Hope my players are not reading this, but if you do... You know what's comin', so be prepared!

This painting has also given me the opportunity to illustrate an illithid, a creature I adore (metaphorically). This one practices archane surgery, and enjoys grafting monstrous body parts onto other creatures.

Pencil sketch, colour with Photoshop CS2 and Wacom Intuos2. No references. Some custom brushes for the background textures. Around 8 hours, pencil drawing included.

Thanks for viewing :)

Ohhh magical surgery. I dreamt of it from the moment I read about golems...
