Three kinds of storytellers
We've spent years working alongside the people who care most about their characters. Here's who usually finds us.
D&D PLAYER · CLOSE-UP · 5:401 · The Player
For your weekly D&D character
your hero deserves a portrait
You've played them for sixty sessions. You know their backstory better than your own. A cheap fiverr sketch or AI mash-up won't do them justice — a real painterly portrait will. We commission tieflings, half-orcs, drow rangers, gnome wizards, every flavor of fantasy character.
Tabletop RPG portraitsD&D 5e & PathfinderAll species welcome

NPC PACK · ZIPPERON · 5:402 · The Dungeon Master
For the campaign you've built
consistent NPCs, ready for the table
Running a long-form campaign? You need a cast that feels real — not stock art mashups that break the table's immersion. We do NPC packs in matching style: 5 to 20 portraits delivered to a schedule you can plan sessions around. Strahd campaigns, homebrew worlds, Curse of Strahd, Storm King's Thunder — we've illustrated for them all.

PARTY PORTRAIT · HEIRLOOM · 5:403 · The Gift Giver
For an 1800s heirloom portrait
their party, framed like family history
Wedding, anniversary, retirement, milestone birthday — for the friend who's played D&D every Sunday for the last decade. We paint their adventuring party as a 19th-century family portrait: central oval cameo of the main party, supporting NPCs in smaller medallions around the edges, ornate gilded borders, the works. The kind of painting that gets passed down, not just hung. Surprise-friendly process — you brief us, we coordinate references with a co-conspirator at the table, you approve at every step.

What clients say
Words from the table
Lyra came back better than I could have pictured. Every revision sharpened the piece. This isn't a transaction — it's a collaboration.
