Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Design inspried by the White Rabbit Candy

It's been on my to-do-list for a very looooong time to make a White Rabbit Candy inspired rebind

It's an HTV wrap cover, and I'm glad most of the measurement turned out correct

He does cut a dashing figure indeed

[szynkaaa]

it's not like they live on a mountain with other monkey citizens running around

Or also known as Oz trying to flirt (??) but it backfires on her.

set after BMW when Oz is living on Mount Huaguo, hence the hanfu and the neater hairdo

I think I'm also slowly getting the hang of drawing Sun Wukong without having to look at 81 reference images

His travel companion asked him if it really was necessary to kill every single enemy they encounter, so he decided to push the yaoguai back into the ground

based on the One Piece scene with Luffy and a zombie

"Black Myth:Wukong" Art Exhibit in Hangzhou

From April 9th to May 21st, the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou, you can visit the Black Myth: Wukong Art Exhibition.

The Exhibition features concept art, previously unreleased concept art and various in-game assets made into life-scale props

I combed through Weibo hashtags to find some photos and videos of the exhibition:

I'm only able to upload 30 photos in one post, so I will probably make a part 2 in the next coming days!

oh no, consequences of my own action

sometimes the Destined One is terrified of the things his travel companion says. Not that he understands half of the things.

BMW Monkey King Simp Discord Server

Hey fellow Monkey Simps!!! On a Kai personal note! I am planning to be actively writing and posting here again soon and getting to those Asks! Sorry I've been away so long, I'm pretty sure no one remembers me at this point LOL! But I've gone through a journey with writing and such so see you soon! You can view my works with #bk kai writes Discord Server! I just wanted to remind everyone I do have an active discord server for BMW ☺️ specifically reader x Wukong / oc x Wukong (or destined one) and general talk about the monkey we simp for. It’s a simping server 🤣 We share links to fics, art, and our own creations!!

There are SFW and NSFW channels to talk, art, or write.

We also have channels for other fandom Wukongs like LMK, Nezha, Monkey King Reborn, JTTW! The server mainly has BMW but we have spaces for all other Wukongs! AAAND shipping Wukong with other characters!!

Just a few rules:

Age 18+ no exceptions. - We have NSFW & SFW only spaces.

Somewhat active- we don’t require 24/7 activity ☺️

We do ask you to participate here and there as lurking isn’t really allowed too much - because we do share works and spitball ideas about Monkey and it’s only fair to have people involved.

We have all kinds of people - so if you’re looking for a space to chat about monkey and simp like the rest of us, we’re here!

If you’re looking for somewhere to be encouraged to write your own stuff or draw it - we are here - we have a fun prompt system!

There are a LOT of specific channels and we ask you to try to be mindful of where you post what - we never kick anyone for mistaking a channel and will gently remind you to move to where you need to be though - since it can be a lot.

We have a server navigation or you can always ask where something goes if you want some help ☺️

In general we are super chill and just wanna talk about a fictional monkey king.

DM me for a link if you’d like to join 🫶 (To those that recently were removed for being inactive for over 3-4 months, we know life happens and you are welcome back in any time!!!)

Current major aracana progress!

10 our of 22 cards down, so I'm almost at the halfaway point :)

I wanna get them printed out at some point and sold in a limited quantity end of this year - will think about the details and interest check once I have a full deck

which one's are your favorite so far?

✦ Justice ✦

Featuring Non-Void and the snow fox. Card illustration is based on the achievement drawing for completing the snow fox quest:

I like to joke that the DO is the one who drew all the achievement drawing (because most of them are so dorky), but is the only one where the art is "normal"

Here's the stop motion animation as part of the Non-Void/Scholar and the snow fox story

Major Arcana ✦ 00. The Fool ✦ 01. The Magician ✦ 02. The High Priestess ✦ 03. The Empress ✦ 04. The Emperor ✦ 08. Strength ✦ 11. Justice ✦ 12. The Hanged Man ✦ 15. The Devil ✦ 17. The Star ✦ 21. The World

[szynkaaa]

in black myth wukong, do you think Erlang Shen is open to starting a relationship with the Destined One or do you think he refrained because that's technically no longer Sun Wukong(his pookie)?

There’s a distinction between DO and SWK in the game that’s understood by the denizens we meet- DO is a monkey of the mountain, and a possible inheritor of SWK, but before he submits himself to become SWK once more he’s a separate entity.

Erlang’s interactions w/ DO show he too sees DO as connected to him but not SWK at all. It also depends on how we understand the soul rekindling to work (in the non-true) endings. We see that the shell remains and another monkey becomes DO, and SWK still doesn’t come back. So it isn’t like DO is how the west understand reincarnations. DO is like a leaf born from SWK’s tree.

I would more personally describe Erlang and DO’s dynamic to be more 伯父 + 侄子, uncle and nephew, similar to SWK and Red boy. With the mentor-goals of Erlang in ensuring DO is strong enough to withstand SWK’s soul.

Always loved this achievement art and wanted to expand on it for the Justice card, featuring the scholar and the snow fox

I'm not usually available for art commission as I use most of my limited free time to either bind books or draw self-indulging art, so if you are interested in commissioning art from me, happy to announce that I will be auctioning off an art commission slot over at Press the Patriarchy.

What is Press the Patriarchy? Press the Patriarchy is an auction supporting Trevor Project, ACLU, and Planned Parenthood. Various artists, (hobby) bookbinders and even authors will be donating items to be auctioned off. All profits will go directly to the charitied mentioned above.

How can I see what items will be available for auction? Please give the Press the Patriarchy instagram account a follow to stay up to date announcements and how to participate in the auction. Various recased paperback-to-hardcover books will be donated, also signed ARC copies from authors such as Ali Hazelwood and Julie Soto, and many artists are also donating art commission slots.

What am I donating? I am donating one full-body art commission slot, bidding starting at 100 USD. Can draw in any art style I have previously done before. If the bidding amount exceeds 200 USD+ a second full-body character can be requested.

I will also be donating a recasing of This Is How You Lose the Time War. This is how my previous recasing looked like - I will be updating the cover design and look this time.

If you have any questions, please reach out to me directly!

This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
