Somehow I managed to draw the portrait of Ezmeralda for my game, now that my players won’t see her again before a while. I was supposed to draw the men of Ravenloft, but I kinda lack motivation, so I've decided to clean the sketches I have for Ez.
I tried to stick to a canon-friendly appearance for the portrait, but as her mentor, I don't understand how to properly draw the split-shoulder part. I didn't like the orange hue as well, so I opted for the crimson one she wears on 5e VGtR's cover.
Feel free to use in your own game

Bonus pic I made of Brandy and Blinsky as Santa and Mrs. Claus because she has a crush on him.

More Notes, May 26th-28th
Arthur was portrayed in the 1992 film by Cary Elwes, aka Westley from The Princess Bride and Robin Hood from Men in Tights.
I agree that 'I bear news that will make your ears tingle' sounds a little in 2022 like he's starting an ASMR channel.
For ages I thought Stoker had made up the word used here to refer to the Roma people whom Jonathan gives his letters to...but nope, it exists and is a racial slur. The portrayal of Roma in this book, whilst not as in-your-face as some other authors of the time, is pretty gross and does not improve from here.
In any case since a lot of vampire-hunting lore apparently originates with Romani culture they'd be more likely to be the Count's enemies than his minions.
aka the only people around who take one look at this guy and go "Nope. Screw that guy. Obvious vampire."
Keep that in mind next time you're running the Vistani in Curse of Strahd.
This is also why I was mad that Van Richten's Guide retconned Ezmeralda d'Avenir's ancestry. Couldn't they have retconned the shitty parents and kept the baddass vampire hunter representation? But that's a digression.
In any case Jonathan notes that this guy is probably loyal to the local lord and then is surprised when the local lord turns out to be Dracula. The guy who owns the only castle in the area. That he is in. Jonny...
All of that said though, this is a great scene for portraying Jonathan's quiet despair as his attempts to get word to the outside world are instantly twisted against him.
And another masterful moment of Dracula rubbing his full domination of Jonathan's fate in Jonathan's face whilst still keeping up the friendly facade they both know is a lie. Because there's nothing Jonathan can do about it. Chilling.

I’m running a Curse of Strahd game with...more than one alterations. Made some of my own art to fit with the course. 
Changes include: 
Madame Eva = Madame Ava (one of our PC’s real names is Eva..was weird to me haha) and she is also a tiefling in this version
Ezmeralda D’avenir is now Mariola - a tribute while Ive been doing my best to research actual Romani people and trying to add more nuance and depth (excellent take here, where I got this name change from). Plus having a one-legged, non-binary vampire hunter seems way too badass of an opportunity to pass up. 
The infamous Strahd is a woman - whose name is Ekaterina Strahd von Zarovna (images to come...)

here are some close-up pictures of the wagon! Ata glance it looks like the officially painted one, but I’m much happier with this.  It’s hard to see, but I dry brushed some dirt on it to make it look more rugged, and especially the dry brushing on the top looks good, making the lines pop out more. And the details were heavily ignored in the official. Where I have the dark blue, stainglass, they just painted purple, and the detailing on the wood trim also was lame.
