I love BG3 but one thing that always bugged me is wanting more body types. Especially for companions. Like Halsin doesn't have a dad bod? Really? And Astarion has ever done a push-up in his life? Like a swimmers body I could imagine but I don't think a 200 year rat diet is ideal for gym gains. Honestly Shadowheart too i don't think she'd let others see her sweat and ruin her eyeshadow.

Wyll, sure 100% he's doing sit-ups with Leazel and Karlach every night. Now Gale, i can definitely see him using magic to give him abbs and my head cannon is that is what the enchanted underpants are for.

Bless the modding community because dehydrated is now not the only body type <3

Trigger warning yet again for Astarion trauma as my deep dive continues-

as just thinking about writing a fic about Astarions time under with Cazador. It's not surprising I find it so interesting and I'm a little obsessed (clearly it's my whole page at this point I'm hyper fixated leave me alone 😂) with his well written their dynamic in game is, but I kind of want to pick it apart.

Sometimes is feels people who dismiss Astarions character don't have a full grasp of what 200 years of torture would do to someone's mind.

Like I'm re reading a song of ice and fire, and Reeks chapters are very Astarion and Cazador. You could basically swap out names and places in some paragraphs and have their dynamic down. Right down to the flaying. When you see events laid out like that you get a much better grasp of the effects of torture and manipulation. chapter here- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHP6YGg_loQ

I kind of want to explore that through Astarion and maybe even his he could find his way back to the light again

Watching BG3 EA content while I work on an Astarion commission and omg I didn't expect to be hit so hard 😭 ⚠️ TW-Astarion abuse truma ⚠️

Like omg it's so upsetting 😭

Tav is talking to him about dreams and you can say it was an erotic dream, and he will say his was aswell. But you can do an insight and see that his expression tells he's lieing. He'll admit it was a nightmare he had about Cazador and he'll get all distant and say "I don't want to talk about it" and Tav tries to reach out to touch his shoulder and he recoils and asks you to leave him alone.

Then another night you can see him having a nightmare, his hands on his chest almost like something is on him and begging his master to stop.

When you talk about it Tav can pick the very messed up option of asking if he said master in the bedroom and obviously he gets extremely angry and threatened Tav

Just when I thought I was over this story I'm not.

Obviously I know EA is no longer cannon, and in a way I can understand why it was cut. If they were going for hiding his true intentions for longer it does give a lot away quickly. They changed the charecters a great deal and some changes I think worked really well. Such I felt his corrupt past kinda removed some of his complexity and I personally prefer it ambiguous. But some changes in my opinion watered the charecters down (don't get he started and Wyll and Halsin), especially removing lines that don't alter the charecter or story but instead add context. it does add even more context and I can't help but feel having that so early in the game would stop a lot of people dismissing his character as just an arsshole for no reason like they do because omg does it hammer home why he's struggling

It's really a shame how all the amazing tattoo artists who can draw Astarion so well (you) don't live anywhere near my country so I can commission them (you)

Love your art it's so amazing and the colors and the art and the Astarion. Wow. If you're ever with free time and willing to talk about, could you explain how you do your lineart? It's a little sketchy but very solid I admire it so much it truly is peak comic artwork

Thank you so much! Sorry about the delayed reply, been slacking on tumblr asks

I think my lineart is very dependent on the way I hold my pen and the type of line that's more natural to me. It also general comes from years of sketching light lines with pencil - a lot of repeated short strokes instead of continuous ones, etc. I never move my arm or wrist much when drawing, it's mostly my fingers, so it keeps lines short and straight.

I'm a big fan of the sketchy look in any type of art so I try not to do anything crisp or high resolution unless it's a job requirement

Have a random process video maybe that'll help understand a little:
