Swordtember is a yearly event much like the critically acclaimed inktober, wherein instead of drawing with ink for the duration of the month, the focus is mainly on swords! Being a portmanteau of the words SWORD and SEPTEMBER, it is an artistic challenge where designers, illustrators, creators, and imagineers create a unique sword every day for the entire month, oftentimes following a list of themes to help give influence and direction.

Instead of just designing the swords, I also decided to illustrate my characters alongside them! Each character comes from a different narrative of mine. The entire breadth of the project even spans multiple conceptual worlds and paracosmos I’ve developed.
