Meet Levinia – Commissioning Art of my DnD Character

On Thursdays, I’m still playing Curse of Strahd at Badwolf Adventure Studios. Our game was a semi-weekly game, however, the players voted on making sessions on a weekly cadence instead. This is the longest campaign I have ever been a part of and I have grown attached to Levinia, a half-elf Blood Hunter. She’s a level #10 which is also the highest I have ever leveled up a character. Besides offering sessions, Bad Wolf also allows for character commissions. I asked for a commission of Levinia because even if she were to die, I won’t ever forget her. The commission was completed in January and I’m pleased with how it turned out.

[Image is taken in a forest. It's dark and there's fog. In the center is a woman with black hair and white hisps through her hair. She's holding a rapier and is dressed in armor and a fur shawl. She looks menacing.]

I’m in awe! Levinia looks so good! I felt that this image captured her character. In addition to having a digital copy of the art, Badwolf framed it for me too. I haven’t hung it up yet as I’m figuring out where I want to hang it in my house.

I cannot say enough positive comments about Badwolf Adventure Studios. I always look forward to our sessions and it’s helped me destress throughout the week.

  1. Hello Mariah… A professional quality portrait of your favored character… That is ‘effin’ awesome! Maybe sometime in the future I could do a ‘guest’ appearance at your regular RPG game?

  2. The character art looks great! Every so often I go on hours long searches to learn more about AI art for generating character art. I am curious what every thinks about it? One viewpoint I hold is that as long as the tools stay free(ish) – it could add a lot more art to tables around the world.

    • I think the problem with AI art is the fear that art is going to be stolen with little to no consequences. I don’t know enough about this topic to personally speak about it, but I feel like that’s where a lot of the concerns are from.

      • Hello, Bizarre Brunette. Yes, that makes sense. My understanding is a lot of these AI systems are learning from existing art to generate new art – so I think the fear of stealing (or closely mimicking) is a risk here. AI art has definitely amped up the aesthetics of my campaigns, but after this chat I will reflect on if/how to use AI art in my campaigns!
