was just thinkin about costume design for the Havenite nobility during Damas’s childhood and early teens… the last doodle is Damas and Ashelin’s first meeting!

#Damas#Ashelin#dress children#haven days#felix art#-it was at the mar's day (midwinter) festival!#-(damas 16; ashe almost 5)#-big fancy ball for the nobility; so of course damas hated everything about it#-there's this little exchange where ashe asks if he's pretending to be a tree#-(because she found him hiding in the shrubbery & he has green hair)#-anyway this bit was originally written as a flashback within cascade(pt.2)#-but it's pre-divergence so the scene itself is canon-compliant & not au#alt.txt

[okay i do definitely wanna doodle the replies for these so it'll take a bit longer; just wanted to give a heads-up to confirm i got the asks!]
question: would anyone be interested if I opened up for in-character Q&A?
like the sort of thing where you could send Damas asks and I’d write his answer, possibly with doodles or short comics…. this isn’t a typical ‘rp blog’ (and i don’t have any desire to turn it into one) but I used to do this sort of ask game with OCs & really enjoyed it.
anyway, send some asks if you got em!

#dadmas lives#Damas#ask dadmas#OP#-to be honest i don't really care for the style/format of tumblr-based rp#-(& just in general i prefer original content for rp rather than fandom stuff)#-but doing simple asks w/ in-character responses sounds like fun!#-and of course regular asks will always be welcome too#-just thinkin of things i could do to give this lil sideblog a bit more activity...#-or you can always send me art requests too; i'm always down to draw damas#alt.txt

Let’s play Writer’s Would You Ever
Send me an ask that says “Would you ever write…” and continue the sentence.
I’ll respond with yes or no and give an explanation as to why if I want to.

more young Damas headcanon stuff!
1: arguing with Praxis (who at this point was Commander of the Guard and chief military advisor to the Crown) about appropriate leadership strategies during the metalhead war– Damas was a hotheaded teen and Action Guy who couldn’t stand waiting safely within the walls like a proper Havenite King, while Praxis naturally did not approve of the last Heir of Mar running off to the front lines.
2: shortly after Damas’s final confrontation against Praxis. I strongly doubt Praxis intended Damas to have any chance of survival– it wasn’t an ‘exile’ so much as a narrowly evaded murder attempt. Damas was presumed dead following his defeat, abandoned in the wastelands with the knowledge that even if he could somehow make it back to Haven he was no longer welcome there.
3: a couple doodles for shortly after Damas and Sig first met! Damas was on his own for a couple weeks (definitely no more than a month) before they crossed paths; after their first encounter they decided to travel together and became close friends. c:
#Damas#Sig#Praxis#felix art#scritches#-someday i'll do a proper analysis of the praxis/exile situation#-cause the more i thought abt it the more i doubted he'd risk damas surviving#-but that's a post for another dayyy

[late reply but] yesss!!! this is so sweet and Good and I'm 100% here for awkward post-reveal figuring-things-out moments, especially involving communication and respect for boundaries... consent is vital to building a healthy relationship, and should be a major aspect of any post-reveal development.
darkwarriorproject:
survived!AU where Damas and Jak keep calling each other Damas and Jak because that’s what they’re used to and it’d be too weird to suddenly change how they call each other
#dadmas lives#Damas#Jak#analysis#replies#-of course it'd also be dependent on how the reveal happens#-but communication and consent are v important & damas wouldn't forget that#-especially since he knows jak has complicated feelings about his parents#-i think that's one of the big reasons the 'mar' thing bothers me so much#-comes across as him forcing that particular dynamic on jak w/o jak's consent#-& damas isn't the type to disregard someone's boundaries like that#-(at least imo; idk i'm just not here for hcs where he's a bad dad)#alt.txt

eeeyyy I did one of these for damas too!

....I learned that 1: I've done so many Damas doodles that I could easily find a recent match (similar expression/angle) for every single one of the old pics, and 2: he's changed much less than the main duo, aside from the overall stylistic drift.
jak and daxter: art improvement meme!!
started this in chat and wanted to bring it over here– share a comparison between your oldest and most recent drawings of Jak! (or any other jnd character, as long as you stick with the same one before/after)
varethane–

duskglass–

if you draw Jak and Daxter art, reblog this post and add yours! :D
#-i guess weird craggy faces are actually easier for me to nail down...?#-the main duo changed a lot more; took longer to 'settle'#-biggest difference for damas is his hair lol; the face shape is p consistent#-yeahhh i draw him too much <_<;;;#Damas#felix art#alt.txt

....now I'm curious, do we know who first started using the dadmas pun?
it brings me joy that this fandom collectively refers to Damas as Dadmas, because we all need to emphasis that pure raw DAD power.
#-was it... me? diD I START THE DADMAS TRAIN#-i feel like i at least popularised it (with my 'dadmas lives' tag)#-dunno whether i'm clever enough to have originated it all on my own tho...#dadmas lives#replies#chatter#alt.txt

you've heard of killing characters off for shock value, now get ready for
actual character development
#-uhh why you gotta call me out like that#-this post sums up all my feelings about the end of jak3 tbh....#-like i still say killing him off was weak writing done for cheap manpain#-serves no purpose (but then nd didn't care about developing any non-title chars)#-i'll just be over here with all my dadmas lives fix-it aus if anyone needs me#dadmas lives#Damas#alt.txt

dadmas shenanigans!! top pic was based on another post (i think by @meeko-mar?) about post-reveal Damas saying that line.
[ end-of-2017 sketchdump 4 /4 ]
#dadmas lives#Damas#Jak#felix art#op#scraps#-tbh i was a lil nervous abt the bath pic... hope it doesn't come off too weird??#-spargus has communal baths and it's normal for families to go together#-tho obviously it'd take a while for jak to be comfortable with the public baths#alt.txt
