Howdy y'all, thanks for stopping by! 💖 Sorry for the gap between uploads, it's been a lil' hard to keep pace with speedpaint recording with all the animation work we've been trying to get done the past few weeks! Thanks as always for y'alls patience, and I hope you enjoy this one! 💖 If you need 'em, all the relevant Print Store and social links are in the description as usual! (^^)/
I think it's amazing how I barely know anything about any of these characters but just from seeing them in your artwork I'm so emotionally invested in their stories.
I feel like this poster shows how you would meet the characters, Paddy: He was sent to give you a letter, Rook: Watching you curiously from across the room, Torlin(?): Singing/Playing a song, Nagar: Looking hopefully in the distance, Ava: At a Party, Gwing: Ready to go into battle, Gimgar: In battle.
This looks absolutely incredible! The colors blend together so well and it just gives off the vibe of an amazing story to come! Keep doing what you’re doing and what you love! ^^
I love that you and your friends are making the story of high hope low rolls come to life. I wish I could do the same for a campaign I'm in someday! Also, love the artwork! It looks like a movie poster!
I just want to say, you have inspired me to be more accepting about the fact I'm non binary 😁 thanks to you I've become happier with myself and even though I'm not out to my family I'm out to lots of my friends so I have to say thank you for inspiring me and just being amazing and accepting ❤️💖💙💜
I wanna do a poster like this for my party, but we haven't been able to start the campaign due to quarantine. :/ Edit: I have a big group and about half of them don’t use chat programs or I don’t know their numbers.
If you all have access to computers you can discord/video call each other and use a website called Roll20. Roll20 is a free virtual tabletop designed specifically for D&D, pathfinder etc. Me and my friends live all over the world and can play weekly thanks to the website.
Simillar thing on my end - weve been playing for a while, but the confusion of the whole quarantine and new players joining just.... left me with absolutely no clue who should be on the poster (since one player showed up on literally one session.... and we have no clue if shes even playing anymore)
My group is running campaigns on multiple Discord servers. If you can do that, I’d recommend it. The audio is trash sometimes but it works alright for us
I always really liked this poster: It’s so whimsical and fun! Anyways, great job to all of you guys on the Shrieking Wizard Co. team! I cannot even imagine how difficult it has been to work on this, but I hope you are also having a lot of fun with it. I also hope that you guys can take at least a little break after this episode is done. You are all awesome and we cannot thank you all enough for your hard work on making this amazing series! Love you all! ❤️
This looks soooo coool!! It really inspires me to see how much effort you're all putting in this project, and it's turning out great! It makes me want to create my own story, thank you all for high hopes low rolls 💕💕 (Also your voice is so relaxing to hear lol 😂)
y'all working so hard on this animation just for us to enjoy 😭 i can't wait to see the next episode and hearing more about y'alls adventures!! but also y'all, pls don't forget to take care of yourselves in this trying times too! anyways lots and lots of love from turkey!!
I kinda wish Roosterteeth would pick up this series and help you fully animate it. It seems like it could be up their alley and I know you’re a fan of RWBY, so it would be a cool collab.
I've been having a really rubbish time rn, due to university stuff, so this video is going to be a godsent! Hearing your voice and watching you draw is always so therapeutic!
I'm early! I always love your videos. It's a tough situation, but I wish you good health. I will always be cheering for you on my side of the earth. Greetings from Korea!! +: Your videos always bring me too much peace and warmth. I always turn on your video on especially difficult days. Then, without fail, your calm voice and wonderful paintings soothe my heart. I'm always enjoying your videos and praying that you'll continue to make such a wonderful progress in the future :3
I'm so excited about the prospect of a new episode! I fell so hard for High Hopes Low Rolls, it's insane! You put so much work into the characters and the art and you can feel the love for the characters and story radiating from it. It's infectious, really. So excited that you're taking your time with it as well, so we are sure that it's the best it can possibly be!
I think the gasp between uploads is earned due to how much you guys are working on this series. I do not play DnD, but I do love seeing y'alls characters and how you draw them. 💜
I just wanna let you know that your sharing your guys' campaign on here is what inspired me to finally make a home-brew campaign for my friends and I! Honestly, I probably would've given up on it a while ago if it weren't for these videos, so thank you!
this poster looks awesome, I'm very excited for the next chapter once you finish it. Make sure to take care of your selves we don't want anyone getting sick during this time. Thank you everyone from Shrieking Wizard co. for deciding to share the story of High Hopes with everyone.
So idk how to explain this without sounding weird but the way u draw hands reminds me of the feeling get when you’re sitting in front of a lit fireplace, hot cocoa in hand, all bundled up in blankets in the dark the night before Christmas. Idk why my brain works like that but that’s just how it makes me feel lol
I can’t wait for the next episode of HHLR to come out! I think it might be a successful series if this does really well. The art is really beautiful, the story is very interesting and the whole idea of it intrigues others to watch it! When quarantine is done, I will definitely recommend this to my friends!
geez this turned out amazing!!!! Your art inspires me all the time, and I can't wait for the next episode to come out!! Thank you so much for working so hard!!! :D
This is amazing in so many ways! I love your art and I'm super interested in the adventures of HHLL. Props to you guys for being able to create such great content (especially you, Alex)!
My gosh.. I absolutely adore your art and you’re a huge inspiration for me in my illustrations. The fact that High Hopes Low Roles is a d&d thing is also awesome seeing as I am a part of a close group who all play d&d! :)
This is lovely, and the advice you gave is helpful for anyone to consider when doing compositions. Also, I'm really excited for episode 2 of HHLR so thanks for the update there.
this made me smile a bunch while watching this ☺️ it reminds me how my dnd group would get together and play, albeit there being a bit of chaotic sidetracking along the way lol im so excited to see chapter 2, and awesome job on the piece alex!! keep on doing amazing things!! ❤️
Composition is amazing, but I never took it seriously until I saw the cover of Fire Emblem Awakening. The artwork shows all the characters charging and pointing their weapons in the same direction, symbolizing fighting similar goals. All except one person: Lucina, who’s facing the exact opposite direction. This symbolizes that her goals coincide with the rest of the party, but her focus is on a new enemy entirely, letting people know that there is more than meets the eye. Finally, the best part, was looking back at the artwork the second time and realizing that Kellam, the fully armored tank who has the weird knack of never being noticed by anyone, was in the artwork the whole time, unnoticed in the background. Gotta love how composition tells you so much about the characters and story in general simply on how they are positioned! Thank you for talking about it!
I am excited to watch the High Hopes Low Rolls new episode soon! And this series of your and group's homebrew campaign should turn into an actual pilot series. But this series is so precious and amazing qwq Keep an good work for you and your crew!
Ah this is so amazing!! Your art style is one of my favorites of all the artists I follow, and it's hugely inspirational to someone like me just trying to wiggle my way into the art community. I've also been trying to get into D&D for a while, and while I haven't been able to find a group to play with, and honestly have no idea how to start even if I did have a group, it's so fun watching other people play or even just seeing their characters and/or stories advance. Sorry for the long rambly message. Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you, king. And queens and rulers who are all working on this! I feel blessed to get to experience this. Also, whenever Alex chuckles, I gain ten years to my lifespan.
I adore your artstyle! Everything about it is so amazing! And it’s really satisfying to see the way u coloured the drawings it’s really amazing. I can’t wait for Episode 2!!
ok man I already love your artworks and you're amazing as is, but(!) the little laugh sometimes and your soft soothing voice and ahhhhh it's so satisfying to listen to you ♥
i first found your channel through your "my biggest speed paint so far" and i started tearing up by how good it was and im tearing up again the same way i did a year ago.
Thank you so much for this cool video! It surfaced on my page today and Im sure this will help me greatly with my next big PnP illustration coming up! I waited so long to do it (Thankfully the person comissioning me is very patient and has no deadline) but now Im really looking forward to let all the characters shine! I wish I could ask you for feedback for it but you sound like you have your hands full (and thats very good!). Im not really in the loop with the Pen and Paper Universe, but gratulations to your animated series! Awesome work, stay safe :)
Your art is the art I look up to inspire me, in regards to what you said about finding movie and anime posters for yourself. Keep up the amazing hard work!!
I love your art so much,the colours blend so well together along with the characters.Ive always wondered how you do composition so im really happy that you made this video thanks
I wish this poster was available on your Redbubble, I think it is absolutely stunning, I love your High Hopes Low Rolls animated series! Carry on good friend, carry on.
Wow your art style is just always so beautiful and I rlly love the painty one u did this time, the more videos u make on these characters and their story makes me love them all more and more
You're such an amazing artist. I love your style SO much and I'm so thankful that you make videos talking about your D&D game. It's really inspired me in my own character creation and I can't express how grateful I am for that. I enjoy hearing about High hopes low Rolls even more than I do about critical role, so thank you for sharing these wonderful characters and stories with all of us.
Man I love your videos so much, I always enjoy watching your speedpaints and listening to your voice, even when it's just old vids in the background. You are such an inspiration to me, I envy your amazing compositions and the way you bring across character so well in just one image. You're actually the one that inspired me to start coloring my art :) Tl;dr: I love you so much my dude
The... the *everything* is absolutely stunning- I’ve always loved your videos and your art and your speed paints of your DnD campaign made me actively want to join a campaign and make (748263 characters-) my first ever Bard and yeah! I’m so happy for you!! And again, amazing piece (as usual u w u)
You know, in the D&D campaign I play with my friends we have one girl who, no matter what the predicament, always responds with, “Burn it.” Lol. I don’t know why but every time I see art for High Hopes and Low Rolls I think of her. I’m sure we all have that one person.
Dude I ADORE how you design armor and outfits for functionality/does-this-fit-the-character over sex-appeal yet keep everything looking sleek and gorgeous. Keep up the good work! :)
I think DnD artists from all walks of life would think of this, especially with female characters (and before you yell at me, I know Alex is gay, he's mentioned/implied it a few times in the past, shut up) and especially with classes that wouldn't be heavily armored, such as barbarians, bards, sorcerers, warlocks, monks, druids, hell, even rogues and wizards. And yes, I've seen sexualized artwork from WotC (or just something in relation to the class) for female rogues and wizards.
I saw the upload and clicked as fast as I could. I love all the characters and their designs! Your videos are always amazing and I love your art style!
I don't know if this is just me but I like seeing the time, like how long it took, because it makes me feel better taking more than 2 hours on a piece myself
They all look wonderful. I love your art style, you are also a big inspiration to me. Besides, I can't wait for the next episode of High Hopes Low Rolls💜
This-- really gives me the itch to draw my own characters in a composition like this XD Anyway, it looks incredible! I love how well put-together this looks!
This is so inspiring!! i got a little teary at the end haha, trying my best to stay safe and happy! thank you Alex! I will surely think about this when i draw my party's poster (cause that's happening now).
Your artwork is very incredible to see, and how much time you all put into it. It’s inspirational it shows beauty, I always love watching your videos it gives me inspiration and wanting to keep drawing and to keep up my passion with it! Please keep up with your work because I can’t wait to see more of it 😊 P.S. your laugh is very adorable just have to say that 😊💙
