First up is this beautiful GIF from@voidpeachesthat shows an adorable Tarnished riding their mount. I’m a huge fan of the chibi art style and the expressions of both the Tarnished character and the mount. I also really like the colors used and the cute little three-frame animation of the GIF.

Next is@@7albi’sdrawing of a Tarnished, their mount, and the tall boss knight lady from the Elden Ring trailers. I really enjoy how “soft” this artwork is, and I also really like the detail on all the characters. The colors also pop nicely, too.
Couldnt sleep I really needed to draw this , have to say the hype carried me I actually was dead tired before the trailer💀💀#FromSoftware#ELDENRING#ELDENRINGart#Soulsbornepic.twitter.com/zhWEEsXCX4Couldnt sleep I really needed to draw this , have to say the hype carried me I actually was dead tired before the trailer💀💀#FromSoftware#ELDENRING#ELDENRINGart#Soulsbornepic.twitter.com/zhWEEsXCX4— Ojan Rezaei.ART (Open Commissions ) (@OjanRezaeiArt)June 11, 2021June 11, 2021
@OjanRezaeiArt’sdrawing of the steel-clad knight seen in the trailer features lots of awesome detail, especially in the cape and the armor’s fur. The gray steel contrasts nicely with the dark red background as well. The perspective is sweet, too, as it looks like the knight is in the middle of swinging his greatsword.
After seeing the Elden Ring trailer the Wolf Knight had to be the one I wanted to draw. So here’s a quick 1 hour doodle. I want to be a badass Wolf Knight now.pic.twitter.com/PbSgQ0w6m5After seeing the Elden Ring trailer the Wolf Knight had to be the one I wanted to draw. So here’s a quick 1 hour doodle.

Speaking of knights, I love the drawing that@KazakhPandadid of the wolf knight in the trailer. In particular, I really like the lighting and shadow work as well as the rough, yet precise style the artist used.

Next is@Berardbro’sabstract piece of several of the characters seen in the trailer. I’m a huge fan of how expressive the characters look in this style, and I also like how much the colors pop against the purple-ish background.

@auroraunity_‘sdrawing of the steel-clad knight features an incredible amount of detail, and I especially love how the lighting in the picture reflects off of the knight’s armor. The green and red leaves in the background also help the knight contrast against the background well, which is sweet.

What about that giant dragon from the trailer?@steel_neck’sartwork of it is gorgeous and intimidating. I particularly enjoy how the red lightning bolt lights up the environment, as well as how menacing the dragon looks.

Last but certainly not least is@wildarrow’sadorable drawing of thePot Goblin that Elden Ring fans are going crazy formingling with a Crystal Lizard from Dark Souls. The style of this piece is beautiful and clean, and the colors contrast perfectly with the white background. Plus, it’s super cute!
