Thank you so much!! I didn't actually plan to post it here because without the video context I think it's actually quite an odd painting that I assumed wouldn't be that interesting, lol... But I'll post the finished piece here shortly! A lot of people have been asking

37th set of speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were painted live on stream!

My penultimate Oblivion paintings! A self-portrait of my plucky player character decked out (mostly) in the Imperial Dragon Armor, plus artist's apron, seated back in the very prison cell where the game kicked off.

Also she's cradling a wheel of cheese - did I mention I had been collecting cheese all game? Every single bit of cheese I could find? It seemed fitting to paint my cheese heap for my hundredth painting. One last painting to go, of the Imperial City!

36th set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream!

Ah, Martin, So brave, so dragon-y. It took a while for me to get around to doing this portrait, but I'm glad I waited. Watching him completely obliterate Mehrunes Dagon was suitably dramatic, and very fun to paint.

And that's the main quest wrapped up! I'm nearly done with this series, though I do have a few more things to wrap up before I say goodbye to Oblivion.

After having gotten Martin killed once I told him to hang tight while I checked out the arena for a bit. I was really hoping to paint the Adoring Fan, but once someone in chat pointed out I'd have to do like twenty arena battles to become champ, I had to abandon the idea. I did get to paint Porkchop striking a pose though! We love Porkchop! Towards the end of the stream I started daydreaming about the Anvil Lighthouse again, so it's painting number five of the place. I just can't stop going back there.

33rd (and technically 34th) set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream! I put these together since I only got one painting done on stream 33 - the game crashed so badly I made the executive decision to go play Overwatch instead.

We're getting towards the business end of the game now! I took down the BIG oblivion gate and headed into Mankar Camoran's Paradise, and then found a spectral crab and painted it along to Crab Rave, at chat's request. After that I barged into Camoran's palace and shot him full of arrows as per usual. Also a bonus painting, courtesy of the fact I just sort of jumped off to do my own thing when the daedra were attacking the imperial city. My bad!

He'll totally walk it off.

Finally finished this art of my latest DnD character, Vic! Time was a bit under 9 hours, including a lot of waffling on stream. She's an Aasimar Divine Soul Sorcerer who really didn't ask to be involved in all this religious nonsense, but is not above selling fake holy relics to make a quick buck. A church or two may have been set on fire in the process. I wanted to follow the art style/layout of the classes and races in the Player's Handbook, I really love how the archetype characters have a little bit of thematic background in the torn page behind them.

32nd set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream! Pushed in to Miscarcand for this stream in search of the Great Welkynd Stone for Martin. I'm not gonna lie, the greatness of said Welkynd Stone was a little... underwhelming. Some artistic licence may have been taken. After that I did a bit of a rambling and painted the church spire in Bravil and our good friend Norbert Lelles in Anvil.

My Oblivion painting stream earlier in the week went a bit sideways when I kept having technical issues with the game, and after a certain point I just said "screw it, we're playing Overwatch". Got a stack together, played a round, and spent the last 45 minutes of the stream painting this elegant Ramattra from the enemy team doing a cool jump on Colosseo. Timelapse below the cut:

31st set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream!

Back into the Oblivion gates! The sea of lava reminded me so strongly of Wanderer above the Sea of Fog that I did my own limited take on it. I'd really like to come back to this one and give it a bit more attention. More generally I want to go back and properly finish a lot of these paintings, I'm trying to figure out the best way to go about it. Elsewhere, I popped over to Bravil Skingrad to do some street painting, and then we finally ended up pushing forward towards the ruins of Miscarcand.

30th set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream! I'm thinking of splitting these posts into the individual paintings so I can includes timelapses, since tumblr doesn't allow you to post more than one video per post. Thoughts? Anyway, this was an especially chill stream, everything I ended up painting was quite mundane for once - no dead bodies or magic nonsense, just hanging out in and around Chorrol. The first painting is, confusingly, not a pie - I don't know why the sweetcake model in game looks exactly like a pie, maybe I'm missing some key piece of lore.

29th set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream!

Having returned to Cyrodiil I set about buying a manor (haunted, of course) in best city Anvil. Sorting that out involved a quick detour to the Imperial City, which presented this lovely and completely non-suggestive view of the White-Gold Tower.
