*New Pin post* Reassessing my approach this year to what I illustrate, and where/how I offer it. Commissions are closed for the foreseeable future. I still sell commercially licensed TTRPG stock art, as well as my fan-art designs over on Teepublic. 💀~**Check my bio for links to all the things**~ 💀

A bust of a hooded, mummified skeletal sorcerer with beaded necklaces and nose rope, shoulders sprouting a feathered mantle, sitting nestled in a gold token ring. Their eyes glow with an orange flame. "JOHN LATTA ART" appears as an overlaid text.

An obsidian dragonborn barbarian with one foot raised on a rock outcrop, wielding a fiery artefact great-axe, and wearing a simple skirted belt. The dragonborn's scales are cracked along its chestplate, showing a glowing orange internal flame. Veins of flame streak the rest of their body.

A blue t shirt with a framed splash poster of The Muppets dressed as TTRPG fantasy adventurers. The text reads "Dungeon Muppets".

Beaker of the Muppets dressed as a medieval retainer or porter, freaking out because his hair is sprouting flaming pink tentacles - he is caught in the act of dropping items he has been burdened with, including a container of tools, empty vials, a green d20 with a pulsing "1" on it, and a slavering chest that's actually a mimic.

We are going to have a harder time prying the reasoning of AI out of people , than the technology. They are leaning on the idea that humanity will anthropomorphize ( and forgive) things that remind them of hegemonic power Than people who challenge it

How about this Makonde drum with a foot and a fashionable sandal?

A small drum with a hide top and wooden base, the base tapers into a skinny leg with a big foot at the bottom, wearing a fashionable sandal

If you see this, post a monster! 🐺

A lunging werewolf with a mouth split into an array of wolf heads - the creatures claws and fur whip off into loose strands of protoplasmic bio-mass.

#DnD #VGtober2026 stock art!

9 - The original Greg Bell's beholder art always creeped me the hell out, so I wanted to try it. 👁️

10 - A shapeshifting yuan-ti malison. 🐍

A loathsome beholder locking its eyes on its victim.

Basset hound sketch, in green ballpoint

-3564 🎨 #dogs #art

A green ballpoint sketch of a Basset hound, viewed from the side and facing to the left of the image. The tail is held high, the right forepaw is raised, and the head is turned a little to look at the viewer. Also, the body is extended out so overall it's about three times the length it should be

Helpful doge 👌

If this also happens to stop me seeing the garbage genAI Pinterest is now endorsing, I'm there in a heartbeat.

Yeah, basically "brown girl listening to metal while rummaging closet tells Chatgpt she's got nothing to wear; it dresses her".

I'm going to start asking a magic eightball every morning if I should go commando, just to keep myself, and now you, guessing.

They've literally been running those exact ads on YT, what is even happening anymore.

OK, the typo, unfinished text and layout issues brought me back to tweak the Goatmother. #Morktober

Morktober Entry for the Goatmother:

Goatmother
HP 7 Morale 8
Armor Prestige d8; reduces to d6/d4/d2 whenever insulted; Test Presence D14 to ruin her pride.
Horns d4
Song of the Ram All who hear the song test Presence DR 12 or attack the nearest person next round. Use every d6 rounds.

Covered in gore and glory, A goatmother earns her place through fervent commitment to the Horned God. She rules the court of Horns with a velvet glove, cast in iron.

I'm with your dog on this one. 😂

My wife whipped out pencil and paper and wrote it down in two tables for me, I'm just sitting there like "holy shit". 😂

@johnlattaart.bsky.social Oct 9, 2026, 9:49 PM

I came back to say "actually, it's 51%", but I see you got a bunch of ppl who pointed it out. My wife who does statistics corrected me "no, that's right; still, you don't need AI for this, there are tons of online probability calculators from years ago that do it more reliably". 😅👍

@johnlattaart.bsky.social Oct 9, 2026, 5:56 PM

Y'know, I think she's fine with those.

@johnlattaart.bsky.social Oct 9, 2026, 5:53 PM

I think she's put off by the mouth-feel of "chunks in water" as opposed to "steeped flavor".

@johnlattaart.bsky.social Oct 9, 2026, 5:50 PM

Perspective and position of the horns-head-ears-neck all needed a second pass; the foreshortening was off in relation to the body, and as a result way too squashed, so I went back in for edits. Stronger wolf-form in profile now.
