I'm not sure what system you're asking for, but for Pathfinder default SR is CR + 11. |

Thanks; exactly what I wanted to know. |

Image for the week was the Devourer. Someone on /tg/ requested it, I think, and I was happy to comply. Need a few more undead on the blog anyway, and this is a little more interesting than "it's a corpse that walks and is angry".
Also this weekend I shall be at the London MCM Expo in the Artist's Alley with Joe Sparrow. We've got quite a good spot in that we're right next to the main road. I'll be selling a handful of Dungeons and Drawings things. I think I'm sat next to some other friends who are promoting Detective Grimoire, a game for the iPhone that should come out soon.
I'll admit it, this one kinda snuck up on me. I intended to have a lot more printed and even a comic, but I got a sudden windfall of freelancing work and ended up unable to do these things from sheer exhaustion. Oh, excuses. Next time, though. Getting my act together. Making a proper logo. Finding places that will do A5 prints at a decent price...
Still any Londoners should feel free to come by and say hi. Buy a Rakshasa postcard maybe.

Siege crab postcard? Is there a list of postcards somewhere?

Sadly, no Siege Crab. Mostly because of the aforementioned me screwing up and failing to order on time. I was planning that, as well as a bunch of others.
Currently available are the following:
Stickers: Hobgoblin, Rust Monster, Kappa, Howler Wasp, Atropal
Postcards: Rakshasa, Gnoll, Wee Jas
A5 print: Defacer
Ones I has planned (and failed) were the following creatures to be made as postcards: the siege crab, Tiamat, displacer beast, drow, Spackle, demilich and kappa.
I'll definitely have them done for the next MCM expo (I think it'll be in October), along with a non-D&D related but still D&D inspired comic.
If anybody has any suggestions as to creatures they'd like to see as prints, please suggest away. Obviously, I can only in good concience to ones that either me or Joe have done.

The MCM Expo went really, really well this time around. I sold a few more things than last time, and sold out on all my stickers except the rust monster. This is good because it'll force me to definitely get stuff printed on time for the next one. People were quite nice and I even got to speak to a couple of folks about Order of the Stick.
And somebody recognized me from the internet! That was quite exciting. I drewed her a hippogriffffff.
I should probably figure out how to set up some kinda store system to sell people stuff. I don't think Dungeons and Drawings will ever get big enough as a blog-thing to warrant me coming to american cons, which is where my core audience is.
Anyway, I also drew a Medusa, this time for the blog rather than for anyone at the con. I've been doing some animation work on this Cartoon Network thing where I've been having to do a lot of their classic characters. I think it shows in this.

Did some myconids, which are sentient mushroom people. For your horror-Mario game. Throw in some raptors with a tongue-pull attack and a dragon turtle with fire breath at your bad guy and you're set.

I've been really really bad and somehow forgot to crosspost my Dungeons and Drawings updates across the various forums I frequent. For a whole month. I'm not entirely sure how you forget something for this long.
So it's a month's worth of updates I'm about to dump here. Monsters I've illustrated are the Zelekhut (justice terminator from the robot dimension), Brain Mole (brain-draining... mole), Eyeball Beholderkin (teeny tiny beholder) and Bogun (a homunculus for druids).

I've spent a good part of last week making up for all the weeks I'd missed on Dungeons and Drawings whilst on my last job, working up a buffer for when I get my next job, and preparing some images for next month. Which will be the two-year anniversary of the blog and therefore needing something special. Last year we did Dragon Month, which ended up running for a bit longer than a month due to some poor planning. Won't happen this year. I've already got two of the four images ready.
So two of these images are to make up for the lost weeks, with the final one being on schedule (I love being able to say that).
The first one's the Aoa, a giant blob of mercury that exists between dimensions. It eats magic, which is bad news for the wizards hopping through the Astral Plane. They're what happens when the Positive and Negative Planes touch at the edges.
Next is the Behir, which is a classic creature of D&D. Big snake things that really hate dragons. I spent a good while trying to decide what to make this look like and failing, then being reminded of a simpler style when I looked up at my postcard wall (the wall behind my computer is covered with the business cards and postcards of other illustrators and animators).
The final image is of the Conflagration Ooze. It follows on a similar style to the Behir, albeit not as bare bones. They're giant amoebas of fire and spite.

The last image I did was of the Dark Creeper, one of those classic creatures of old D&D. Not pleased with the pic, but you can't help making a less than stellar image every now and then.
The more important this is that this month will be the celebration of the two-year anniversary for Dungeons and Drawings. This month will be dedicated to the gods of D&D. Joe (who used to update with me some time ago) will be joining in on these festivities and doing his own version of the gods.
This first week of God Month has my Fharlanghn (god of travel) and Joe's Boccob (god of magic). We'll be doing more gods until the end of August, so that's gonna be six more images over the next three weeks.

Who's terrible at cross-posting the new images from their blog. Me.
So this is gonna contain about a month and a half of pictures, so brace yourself. Joe has officially rejoined the blog, so that means twice as many monsters from now on.
Blanca:
Hippogriff (animated!), a half-eagle and half-horse, all skippy.
Ixitxachitl, intelligent manta rays with a baaaaad disposition
Jahi (NSFW), a spirit that makes people give into hedonistic desire
Kelpie, a sinister water horse of Celtic mythology.
Lodestone Marauder, a big magnetic beast of war.
Mummy, a classic monster, which I'm sure many of your have suffered at the hands of.
Joe:
Pit Fiend, a hell-thing you really don't wanna meet
Bhut, an angry spirit able to possess dead meat, but not with enough strength to create a zombie.
Lumi, a humorless, neckless being of light
Balhannoth, because sometimes you hate your players.
Leviathan, literrally a giant whale despite being classified as a Magical Beast
Morgh, the spirit of a mass murderer as a gooey snake thing that puppets corpses.

Ok, I officially love the Ixitxachitl, and the Jahi flipping from one image to another is a nice trick that works to show the creature's hidden nature.
Thanks for sharing these!
