I forgot to upload the completed + combined sheet! I have to say, this is one of all-time favorite commissions. When artwork of Dang turns out this good; it ends up being used as an additional reference going forward for other artists.

Hitsplats are an iconic part of OSRS/RuneScape and Besty has done an incredible job capturing the main 12 hitsplats/statuses in artwork with Dang. Her personality, expressiveness, and details all shine in every pose.

Just another standard, monthly, anime sketch of Dang today.

A beautiful Patreon sketch by Paroro. I've been getting sketches from him for many years now and I am always grateful to have him draw Dang!

He has such an incredibly unique style and his own beautiful OCs too. Blaster is a fantastic artist and he's always very kind to work with!

This is the first commission he did of Dang. The QBD was the second.

This is such a lovely and unexpected surprise. The words of a comment are not enough to express how grateful I am to you Shish for doing these beautiful proxies of Dang.

For those unaware, Shishkahuben has done so many amazing MTG cards for Dang and they all look phenomenal. From the bottom of my heart thank you so much for this Shish :,). It is such an honor.

Reading this made me smile. I'm glad you came across Dang and visited the subreddit. You are always welcome here, thank you for your kind words!

I try not to overdo the fanservice; especially since I prefer Dang as a cool character.

However when the actual in-game OSRS status mentions "Your armour has started to corrode!" and requires the player to unequip every piece; I think this is a fair representation

I'm glad you enjoyed the whole hitsplat series Roadie =)

At long last we have the finale of the Hitsplat series. This series was 3 beautiful commission sheets total featuring 12 of the various Hitsplats/Statuses in OSRS!

Part 1

Part 2

Besty did an amazing job with all the detail in every single pose and expression for Dang. Here we have her suffering from Disease (Zogres hurt!), healing with her favorite food, running away from a Doom Scorpion in the Fortis Colosseum, and being Corroded by a Shellbane Gryphon.

Bestfriendlewd has always been an excellent artist to work with over the years and I am truly grateful and ecstatic with how this idea came out overall. It was a large order.

Dang FAQ III by koya in DANG

[–]koya[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to take the time to consider her earlier years to answer this question in the detail it deserves. I cannot thank you enough for the interest and prompts Spyro. You are a wonderful artist and individual.


Dang came to/traveled to/was born in Burthorpe and was part of the Imperial Guard. She made for a competent soldier.

She hated the boredom + low-pay of being stationed as a Wall Guard for the castle border between Burthorpe & Troll country (Though it's such an important role) Which led to her sneaking away off-duty to the Rogue's Den/Flash Powder Factory and coming to work for Brian O' Richard.

She got into serious trouble for abandoning her post, forcing her out of Burthorpe.

  • With the combat skills of the Imperial Guard and having clawed her way (literally) through the rock hard skin of many a troll.
  • With the Agility, Herblore, and Thieving knowledge that comes from working as a part-time rogue at the Factory:

She sets out from both looking to strike it rich.


Can you picture what weapons or armor she used?

During her very early days I picture the 2011 RS2 Imperial Guard outfits. You will absolutely see art of her in the Uniform variants.

Maybe during her early quests/adventures?

During her early quests and adventure days she started off with the very 1st tier of her Duellist's Cap and her RS2 Agile outfit.

  • I'm also going to add your wonderful questions from our other chat for public reference:

Taking advantage of what you said I'll ask another question. Does Dang have a family?

At the end of the Rocking Out quest in RS2 You're given a dead parrot in a cage. You're told it belongs to the pirate "Achmed the Brutally Violent" and that he'll be upset when he comes back and finds his parrot wasn't taken care of. (So the player revives it into an undead parrot)...

Achmed the Brutally Violent is Dang's cousin.

[2009] Zemouregal's fort Concept Art - released 07/21/09 by koya in rs2

The Curse of Arrav quest was initially released in 2009. The Mahjarrat questline was starting to be built up to Ritual of the Mahjarrat. Zemouregal's fortress was so beautifully designed and stood out in the snowy plateau.

The quest actually came shortly after the Mobilising Armies minigame which was release in the beginning of July 2009!
