#The Butterfly

[polliwoggers]

wanted to try drawing spider lilies and considering the symbolism it felt only natural to throw the ol’ soul parasite in there

[cits-kirby-brainrot]

So the waddle dee I drew a few days back?

Yeah, I came up with lore.

(I am ignoring any lore given by the light novels as I know nothing of them, apologies)

+ Bonus:

Gala’s traumatic childhood in the making

A creepy lil thing.

When you suddenly remember that this blog isn't only about cotl

[fruitsofhell]

no one knows that i actually really love these two panels because in them im trying to contrast the deep, mortal, exhausted madness a of haunted, cursed man against the careless musings of a being that has known and become one with the void that man has torn himself and the world apart to escape.

this is my morphogala. Galacta raving with borderline lovecraftian madness and Morpho - the lovecraftian knowledge librarian - going "ive been saying this lol".

The Butterfly is another character from the Hell Rider comics and may be the first black woman superheroine. I didn't really alter her too much, it's just mostly material work with her costume and shortening her hair.
