DnD Equipment art | Bloodsilver Helm and Assassin Moth Blade

DnD Equipment art made for a 5e DnD magical item guide cover — Calloval’s Magical Items by Cody Lewis.

These are the “Bloodsilver Helm” and “Assassin Moth Blade” found in the book. When beginning this collaboration, me and the client discussed some rough tests displaying the items in a still-life, snowy scene.

I was given a lot of creative freedom and could pick from any of the book’s items to illustrate. This was overall a pleasure to paint, thank you Cody!

The images have been Glazed.

The print is up in my INPRNT and Patreon as well.

Refs and WIPs

Among references is the iconic Clegane/Hound helmet from GOT, snowy photos, and Suzanne Helmigh‘s works for Grim Dawn, which I’m using as a quality standard. Having a goal or master work like this among my refs helps me polish my art further.
This is how it started. We used this to discuss placement and some details, such as the moths.
