The gang all together 👍

Sketch v final + refs below!

First pic was reffed from My Own Private Idaho, which ended up being a really bad idea because this focal length was ridiculous to try and flatten out and match with the others lol

Second pic was obvi The Pieta by Michelangelo, but shoutout to my partner for suggesting the role reversal cause I was initially gonna draw Viktor in Jayce's arms again, but having it the other way around gave me the idea for the last piece where they're mutually in each other's arms and on equal ground in the composition

Third pic was reffed from The Blossoming Of Love by Miquel Blay! Had to move Jayce's hand to Viktor's shoulder because he was too yolked for his arm to fit between them lmao

it’s not just the fact that isha sacrificed herself, it’s the fact that she didn’t even hesitate. not even for a single moment. she was a child, yet the instant she saw jinx in danger she immediately ran to protect her, even if it wasn’t her job, even if she was the one who was supposed to be protected. she loved her so fucking much she was GLAD to sacrifice herself for her. isha, a little girl, died happy knowing she had been loved by jinx and had loved her in return with her whole heart. the love isha had for jinx was pure and fierce and without limits. i will never recover from this.

I’m completely normal about this woman I swear.

Timelapse. And yes I did forget the lipstick stains before I exported it forgive me.

This piece is pretty significant to me as I’ve never felt comfortable drawing any Arcane characters until extremely recently. I didn’t think I was skilled enough to make them look even remotely similar to their actual design. But I finally took a stab at it with some encouragement from friends, and here we are. I’m genuinely so proud of it. My anatomy isn’t perfect but I have a lifetime to get better. This is my first time starting greyscale and coloring with gradient maps and honestly it was such a treat. I am very pleased with how it turned out.

Also here’s a mid-hair render that I thought was really insanely funny:

Anyways sorry for the rant. I hope y’all enjoy my art as much as I enjoyed making it.

I’ve been so down bad for Sevika and I saw this thing about a pirate AU and I had to draw it

Scissor me timbers indeed

For everyone who did not have enough to see Sevika in the universe of the arcane. I'm here for you and our queen!

I need to stress how important it is that Jinx made that prosthetic arm for Sevika.

Jinx, for as long as the audience has known her, has only ever made inventions for her own personal use. She designs them in a way that is specific to her whims and interests, which gives the overall impression that no one should be using her creations without instructions. And they're made to suit her fighting style, which is why we don't see anyone close to her, like Silco, using them.

That prosthetic arm she designed for Sevika is quite possibly the first invention she's made that is purely and entirely for someone else to use. Jinx saw how Sevika mourned Silco, saw that her unrelenting loyalty for him still held layers of resentment and rage, but that she still grieved him anyway.

It's not coincidence that immediately after this encounter (during which she saw Sevika struggle to repair her old mechanical arm), Jinx creates this prosthetic for her, pouring all her creative innovation into it. She deliberately designs it as a gift in every sense of the word, wrapping it neatly into a bow like a present, for a woman who may or may not even be her ally anymore.

And the second Sevika puts it on, we see Jinx's trademark eccentricity, her wild colors, her manic machinations whirring to life. It's a sparkling, visual reminder of Jinx's affection on her body, a physical manifestation of her desire for Sevika to live and succeed. She gave the arm tricks, weapons, instruments of brutality--things we expect to see from her--but also music and fireworks, features that serve no purpose in combat other than making her smile.

We have never seen this from Jinx before, never seen her do something like this for someone else. When Sevika asks why Jinx made it for her, knowing the novelty for what it was, she'd simply responded with, "It was something I could fix."

It's no surprise that Sevika continues to protect Jinx aftewards. Whether Jinx was consciously aware of it or not, she had been openly declaring, "this is my ally; attack her and face my wrath."

Morally, I do not agree with a Caitlyn's Evil Cop Era. The lesbian in me, however, really likes that dumbass coat.

Like. Really likes it.
