Premium character artwork for TTRPG players.
Welcome! I'm Raphael and I'm a working illustrator and concept artist in the game industry. I also provide character illustrations for players who want to have their own characters rendered in AAA quality with the accuracy and view that no AI can offer.
You interested? Great! Take a look below to see the kind of stuff we can create together. And by "we" I really mean you and I. No AI crap like Midjourney, Dalle, or whatever thing they come up with next.

Here's what some satisfied patrons have to say about commissioning artwork from me:
Working with Raphael was a pleasure, since he was as professional as anyone can hope for. He gave great time estimates and described his creation process very accurately, so that everything went smoothly and I always knew when to expect updates.
He managed to get my vision for the scene and really brought my character to life! In summary: One of the best artists I have commissioned from, I would recommend him for sure!

When I found Raphael on social media I knew I had to get something commissioned. The art was of course amazing as expected, but what surprised me more is the quality of his customer service.
From the first email I knew he had his stuff together and that inherent confidence combined with his positivity really made me feel comfortable through the whole process.
The process itself went smoothly with all deadlines upheld and any questions or concerns answered swiftly.
If anyone is daunted by the process of commissioning and or wants to make sure they get their money's worth, then I cannot recommend Raphael enough.
10/10 will commission again.

Raphael is extremely professional, quick to respond and his artwork is simply beautiful. The entire process from start to finish was fantastic, and I have absolutely recommended him to friends and will always gladly do so again to anyone I show the art he created for me.

I cannot express just how much I recommend Raphael. This was my first time commissioning a piece and I was extremely apprehensive. Raphael's courtesy, professionalism, thoroughness and transparency about and through the entire process eliminated any stress from the transaction. The piece he provided me far exceeded anything I expected. Not only was I blown away, but friends in the digital art industry expressed their amazement at both the quality and value of his work. If you're on the fence, don't be 10/10.

First off, I found Raphael through a friend who had also commissioned their D&D character, but when I saw how much detail there was in his “Complete Scene” tier I couldn’t resist going for it!
I wasn’t sure what to expect really, my previous commissions definitely were not as fast as his were! There were some hiccups with scheduling but that happens!
But once we started talking I could tell he was really kind and helpful with getting the style of art I wanted, I’m not a very descriptive person, but with the help of many references I got across what I wanted with the art, and I still love it to this day.
I’ve already posted it on Twitter and Raphael has done the same on his social media, I’ve even already recommended him to my friends from how impressed I was, from how fast the commission was and to how amazing the piece looks!
