First off, my commiserations to those on the otherside of the Atlantic pond. We will get through this.
I've been playing far too much Vampire Survivors Ode To Castlevania and slipping back into a lack of focus on work. So I will stream on Thursday and Friday at 3pm GMT! I will be working on this image and if I can focus on it offline I can get it done by the end of the week.
On the image pack front I have realised there is a slight issue with doing IBSFA races and that is I can't draw human faces to save my life. I always run into the uncanny valley problem and I'm not going to be able to do a human face (as well as dwarf, orc, elf, drow, goblin, centaur, gorgon, drider, gremlin) to a decent quality. I don't want to fall back on to my tried and tested methods to get around this issue as that will not be good enough quality images - of the few images featuring humanoid faces I've done over the years I tend to resort to either obscuring parts of the face or embraced the horrifying elements of my current ability.
I could lean into that horror if peeps would be interested in a image pack like that but for now my ideas are either close ups or sketchy paintings. I could also do a series of images like the nuns above. Themed orgies with random characters squeezed into every space. That could be quite interesting.

A long-term solution for faces is practicing. Do a face study. Like, just draw a bunch of faces, maybe a face-monster or something, and try and figure out what makes them look off. Figure out how to do them in a way you like better.
