Watch me try my hardest to fit this witch somewhere in this book because I fell in love with her and her little huahua as soon as I sketched her :)

I loved making that lore infographic on witchmarks, so here is another one! This one is on one of the DnD witch subclasses in Hexbound: the Warlock Witch!
I released this subclass for free as a teaser for the full book, so... you know... here's the link👀

The graphic details and windowing in the borders are referenced from, once again, a thousand other Mucha illustrations. He often used stars and filigree and flowers. I went for the first two.
But the references extend past the figures! For the far background, I referenced several other illustrations using the widow-effect of many Mucha illustrations. Most of them used silhouettes that hinted at a place, so I did that!
The figure in the middle was the most important one for me.
She's supposed to be a witch receiving her witchmark and she's a conglomerate of a ton of references. A posing reference that had to be slightly changed, and then like a thousand others for body-type, clothing, and hair.
The woman on the left is much more faithful. I loved the pose of the reference, but I wanted to make her heavier and east-asian. I think that the billowing clothing and sleeves somewhat hide her body-type which is a shame, but I'm very happy with the change to her expression :)
The man is the least faithful to the reference source because I failed to find something that work with the composition. It's really hard to find references of how Mucha drew beards, or men for that matter.
So this entire illustration is a big reference to Mucha's entire body of work. Mucha was instrumental in the Art Nouveau movement, born in the 19th century. I've seen tons of illustrations referencing specific illustrations, I wanted this reference EVERYTHING, including fonts!
I've been waiting ever since Hexbound was announced to reveal this!
✨My DnD witch supplement Hexbound is getting its own Collector's Edition with it's own alternate cover!✨
This is my favorite illustration I've ever done :)
Thread bc I'm dying to explain every reference!
look at all the #dndartists!!! I never ever do tags but this one is far too specifically my thing to pass up.
I'm Antonio and make my own DnD books! Last year I did a cooking 5e supplement and this year I'm getting ready to release one all about witches called Hexbound :)
