Meet Gareth, Lord Alchemist for his majesty. A very serious and dedicated old badger, one might even call him a grouch. His peerless talents make it easier for those who dwell in the castle to forgive his mood, and his position as the king's own potion-maker has been wholly earned.
But Gareth has a certain... weakness, shall we say. Oh yes, there is fire in those old bones.
This was a tough one! Lots of details I wanted that could only be done manually. Almost everything was a pain, the robe, the glasses, the hands, the background. I could probably make tweaks to this piece forever, but I think it's time to let it go. Upscaled with this lovely oil painting LORA: https://civitai.com/models/127139/classipeintxl-oil-pai...
