Description My first fully rendered piece of Dwarf Fortress fan-art. Really pleased with this piece; I think I've managed to get the balance of semi-realistic style that I've been going after for months.

I like how the glowing mushroom patch at the tunnel entrance invokes wonder and the menacing stalactites the dangers of the caverns.

Thank you; I really wanted to capture the idea of the start of a fantasy quest, about to enter a dangerous and unknown world.

Thank you! Ironically, I think they're two of the parts I spent the least time on; certainly I spent a lot less time on the female dwarf's face than the male's, you can definitely over-fuss on things sometimes.

Super cool, Blake. I really like the lighting/shadows and how the dwarves are proportioned. A lot of work went into this.

Thank you! I worked on this on-and-off for a few months in between other (more lucrative) things, so I don't know how long I spent on it, but it was certainly a lot of work.
