i have a prompt for you (or a few lol, but this is the first): wiv and doodles!
The mess hall was much smaller than what Wiv expected. Looking at the size of the space when they boarded, he pictured huge rooms designed for hundreds of Coalition soldiers.
This place, it was closer to a cafe. The tables were sized to match, not the long cafeteria style tables meant to maximize space but individuals ones with three to four seats bolted to the floor. They were spaced enough for the semblance of privacy while anyone talking loud enough could be heard throughout the room.
It worked perfectly to his needs. He was slouched into a chair, legs up, face buried in his sketchbook. He stole furtive glances over it then his pen set to work sketch in board, round strokes, white ink on thick dark paper.
The subject of his undivided attention was Thelnym, eating slices of vegetables one at a time.
They had existed as larger than life in Wiv's imagination since he was a kid – a hero, an idol, the chosen of the progenitors. The real thing did not disappoint.
His style was usually very loose and based on the emotions people invoked in him, capturing their essence in a mess of lines. Thelnym's lines were hard to contain, to define. Wiv sketched to the very edge of pages and beyond. White ink covered the side of his hand. He liked the smudges it caused, the unpredictable nature of it, additions outside his control.
In quick succession he filled five pages. He had to memorize every detail, every feeling, immortalize it.
Their scales became spirals that wandered across rolling, overlapping hills of a body, their hair tangled vines transforming into a sky overhead. And always they were orbited by the vague shape of the woman they dwarfed as a planet does its moon. The woman sending disapproving stares his way. Thelnym didn't look at him once.
Wiv would pay more attention to the woman named Özgür later. He had sketchbooks designated for them all. The Coalition's first paycheck was put to good use stocking up on them before they left.
He didn't really have that much clothes anyway.

Okay so about those headcanons-
I believe ascending to god-hood in Great God Grove is heavily Tied to a persons mental health, whole post is under read-more for the sake of everyone, poorly written ramblings by someone that struggles to write out thoughts below with some doodles (obviously spoilers too!) :
Aka dumb idiots who girl-rot (/silly) and don't handle their internal issues end up ascended in the realms hours to DAYS after the event instead of immediately after like in the case of King. In my headcanon this is because a gods new form is tied to who they are, and if you hate yourself, don't know who you are, or think you're nothing, it'll effect how you turn out, fighting with other aspects of how you see yourself for dominance. The harder the struggle to create a form, the more of a recoup period for said god to actually start being able to do things- think about it like recovering from exertion or from being sick.
This of course can lead to some problems for the said gods with more problems than others, like Inspekta:
He fears being nobody, dying, leaving nothing behind, and being forgotten- and when he ascended he quite literally lost his whole torso and his tail popped off! hands possibly representin' the others that propped him up! Finally waking up after ascending I'd take it he took his form rather poorly and actually needed extra time to recover *emotionally* before anything on top of the time needed to pop into full existence as a god. I believe when the other gods saw his entrance into the realm, it was quite literally him dropping in from a long ways up with a thud for the jacket and his head bouncing away (really silly, like a ball). while being able to put it together for the other gods he ended up really struggling about what he'd become in private.
Another god i believe may have had issues with ascending is not surprisingly, Click Clack. A god i feel in his human life spent making himself palatable and burying editing out how he felt about things and being unnoticed. Also wouldn't be surprising some of the burying editing came in during the time between him and Thespius ascended, his lover was above them now, after all! I actually drew how i envisioned his entrance to the god realm, because i'm biased.
like a sudden ink spill appeared after a while and he crawled out, exhausted.
anyway i've rambled incoherently enough hope u enjoyed my nonsense and the doodles [explodes]
#great god grove#ggg inspekta#ggg click clack#ggg thespius#ggg spoilers#ggg miss mitternacht#wish i was better at writing my thoughts its a bit of a mess#but oh well! c'est la vie#fun fact the drawings of cc appearing in the realm was like the 2nd thing i drew of ggg its been here good second#also calling my ass out on last post “all the non hc doodles except one” NUH UH YOU FORGOT THE CURSED ONES.#those exist too they just suck completely so u forgot they existed lol#but yeagh. anyway#i think about these two specifically w god hood becuase of [gestures] lOOK#miss mitternacht is telling thespius Click clack's gonna be fine in that last image btw for context. she's seen some rough entrances before

Halo
#mmm ok lemme just start w the tags then ill ramble#welt yang#hsr#honkai star rail#hi3#honkai impact 3rd#my art#ok anyways. i didnt have too many thoughts when i started it beyond “uni is killing me but i NEED to do my daily drawings”#some thoughts did go through my mind while drawing which determined the direction this went in#which is that this could be a badass heroic drawing but.. it isn't. this doesn't feel very happy does it?#it makes him look a bit lonely#but something about the pose and the red is ominous. like he's unreadable but theres something sad about it#the moon in the background has a bit of a double meaning - namely the actual moon and its purpose in hi3#as the final destination of the honkai and the story but.. him as well#and as a halo. i love that the three major organizations in hi3 are basically religious groups#and AE basically worships joyce and his legacy (!) and welt tries to fill that. i mean the title sovereign alone means like. absolute ruler#an untouchable figure in terms of power and control over their people#so i really like to give him some sort of fucked up fake halo. he can imitate a saintly figure but it dehumanizes him in turn#he even talks about humanity like he's not a part of it#what's left is some kind of creature mimicking divinity but becoming isolated and inhuman in the process#(gesturing wildly) THINK ABOUT THE COSMIC HORROR POTENTIAL OF BEING A HERRSCHER. HE LITERALLY PERCEIVES REALITY DIFFERENTLY. CMON.

thank you nameless bard
#“for what” everything#NO but . i hope so desperately one day there’s like . an artbook released of old mondstadt#i NEED to know what their thought processes were for the bard#and for the old mond crew too#like hi. amos’ dress#the heart in her bow#what did the other gunnhildrs and ragnvindrs look like throughout the centuries#give us her full body outfit#SAME with that warrior is2g if the next shot of him is him turned with the slightest bit of his side profile AGAIN#and .#and !#decarbian.#gestures to him. Decarabian#it is fun though how many people go wild with his design#really do hope he has a fluffy cape or cloak#deca cold and solid ….. cape warm adn fluffy ………#like why …. did they give bard the Cecilia#thus so far. he is the ONLY one in the crew to prominently display their rebellion code#and while that certainly says something about his character#where did it COME FROM#was it from amos. gunnhildr. wispti? did he pick it himself? is it even a real cecilia?#AND the scarf. why is it wrapped around his Cloak ?#<- i love the scarf so much. for someone who keeps forgetting to draw that detail 😭#did he …. add progressively to his outfit as the years went by#those shorts look kinda hand made#like he torn them and fixed them up#Hhhheyyyyy . hi#genshin#lantern says stuff

HMM maybe classic ol moon and pebbles and the vanilla sibs (monk, survivor) for rw requests? You have no idea how excited i was to see someone else point out the possible parallels/symbolism between the 2 pairs of siblings when you made the post abt them ... either that or daszombes "iterator logs" characters, if youve seen it!
i am SO sorry for how long this took me to get to, holy shit, but ouhg yesssssss the sibling parallels are SO -punches wall- GOOD. are they speakin to the slugs? are they speaking to the wind, hoping it will carry their words all the way to the other? nobody will tell, nobody shall know
#rain world#rw#the request box#five pebbles#rw survivor#looks to the moon#rw monk#my art#IT... TOOK SO LONG CUZ LIKE the more vague the req is the harder it is to figure smth out like everyone gives me their ocs to draw so i go-#-into town with em right away cuz i just gotta put em on the paper but This oh boy.... i had to turn my brain on </3#n im STILL -so so gesture- bout this. the words r- once again- from the song funeral bell just a bit scrambled to fit better#hope ull enjoy!!! wanted to put more effort into it as an apology for the wait

"This is a message to you, who listens. You must trust me, because we are friends. You just don't know it yet. "
(The Road to PARTIZAN 05 : Ech0 & dusk to midnight)
currently halfway through PARTIZAN (making my way towards palisade extremely slowly. see u guys there in a month or two) & this is to date my favourite intro Austin has done. what an great introduction to an extremely cool character
#Partizan#road to partizan#friends at the table#fatt#gur sevraq#ive been wanting to draw something for that intro ever since i first heard it but i didnt. even know who gur sevraq was at that point.#but its been On My Mind#rosa art#im fairly happy with this i had a lot of fun coming up w the composition. it felt like a puzzle bc i knew what i wanted...#the lineless artstyle is something ive been trying out more and it doesnt come easy but it is fun. (so many layers.....)#you can zoom in for details because. ofthe person i am i always have to add little lines everywhere#well i usually write kind of a lot in the tags but ive been drawing for 5 hours nonstop. my brains kind of wiped.#i havent taken my walk yet so. i will now do that#...usually id listen to more partizan but millenium break is. literally not relaxing and i need to chill a bit#might put on the new bluff.#oh one more thing every time i relisten to that intro i do a little ME? gesture i hear that first line. its fun to me#edit: ok i moved the text slightly it was bothering me !#probably noone else will notice.

Day 12 - Once you had one hole in your skin, you've had 'em all
#My art#Requestober#Vargas#Jake#Nny#*looks at your comment of NnyGaster being cursed* *looks at this* Well I mean at least you're consistent#Of all the crackships I haven't considered I possibly haven't considered this one the most#I mean considering I Just got into Nny/Scriabin lol#I have extreme Edgar/Scriabin blinders lol this is known#Is this a thing and I just don't know? I can't even snark I just - it Literally Never Occurred to me lol#Edgar got all the shipping charts and diagrams and graphs he's special that way <3#I love Jake dearly and don't want him to be hurt! Unlike the Vargases lol ♥ I love them dearly and Do want them be hurt#Precarious position anyone who gets paired up with Johnny haha#I suppose if Johnny's still in Sweet Mode that's one thing but!! the rest of him!!!#Their dynamic over something like piercings Is interesting tho - Jake hangs out with artsy types and Nny is definitely that lol#And Johnny's y'know - weird about stuff lol - I could see him getting into a pierced partner! No pun intended#And obviously Jake is very good on boundaries <3 He's not actually touching him here just gesturing at his ear#It also occurs to me that I can't think of a time I've seen Johnny with tattoos :0 Body modification+art! (+bodily weirdness)#Might be something there to look at sometime hmmm#Anyhow - continuing my trend of drawing Nny on the hood of the car over the cliff haha#I didn't think I had leveled up all that much from last year but comparing the two??? I'm Way more pleased with this one#Still struggling with the bottom of the shoe but better! Practicing!!!#Maybe there Is something to drawing just a bit bigger lol#Nny also looks significantly less anemic from not having died yet lol#Really pleased with the harder edges of the unlined shapes ♪ I used that grass brush on everything and it's dope#Do I like backgrounds???? First lining now this so much to consider

When Maul and Obiwan touch foreheads in a piece of writing, my lifespan increases.
This was partly based on a scene in @nicolabarth's fic, Rage and Hope. Go check it out if you haven't already :)
#obimaul#obi wan x maul#obiwan kenobi#darth maul#star wars#star wars the clone wars#fanfic fanart#swtcw#my art#shippy things#i just think this gesture is so tender#i adore when any ship does it but especially these two because maul has horns and it's a sign of trust i feel#i didn't make obiwan's eyes completely gold because like i wanted this to apply to them in general not just in the fic#but if you look there's some specks of gold in there#maul#obimaulartfire#i get embarrassed drawing shipping things but i'm coming out of my shell a bit#anyway hope u enjoy :)#oh ALSO! (bc I love rambling)#i really tried to make the expressive nature of my artstyle more apparent here#i'm trying to embrace it you know? as much as i love clean lineart i love expressive pieces too

hey that's not supposed to be out there (uploaded wrong version at first haha whoops)
#not supposed to be that color either#i wonder who that belongs to#i had a very vague meaning for this in mind but saying it would spoil the fun#christ this took me forever#i wanted to do a quick project to give myself a break from my final#but accidentally made an entirely new kind of nightmare#BUT i can proudly say that i am very proud of this despite how long it took me#alrighty this blog is all about tracking progress so my thought on this;#it's not really as energetic as i had hoped to make it so i think that's the biggest technical issue i have with this#i'll try to get back to doing more gestures soon as a way to help with that#i think my shadows are a bit confusing too#i'm looking at it now and his glasses kinda taper off into the void of his fur bc i didnt mark the shadow along the left of his ear#but the thought of digging back through layers to fix it and blending that mess in is giving me a headache so i'm content with leaving it#i think i learned a lot about light and reflections though#my shadows aren't the greatest but i had so much fun rendering the glasses#and the glow of the soul pushed me to think about bounce light a lot more#figuring out how to make the colors look like they were glowing was a whole separate issue#i did it in the last big ralsei drawing i did but not nearly to this extent#i won't be doing something this large for a while after this but i'll keep trying to work on the things i didn't like about this#i think i'm gonna start putting my self-crit in the tags from now on#it really does bulk up the posts and it's hard to scroll past#i like reflecting on my work like this though#i've been able to draw a lot more since i've started doing it because it helps me create specific goals for myself#lets me keep pushing myself while still having fun with my art#ralsei#deltarune#deltarune fanart

my only artistic goal in life is to become an expert at painting florence welch and florence welch only. i just have to like...learn how to draw first
#the hawk draws#florence welch#i know i'm not very good now but someday i will be the best fanartist she has ever had#i learned how to draw faces today. that was the first two attempts at drawing a real person after i studied the method i was trying to use#i am actually pleased with it considering i have not studied or tried to draw a detailed face in like 3 years#or like..really i haven't done a single thing except gesture drawings in the last 2-3 years#bc every time i tried to draw for fun it would just come out so bad and i'd get frustrated and quit drawing for another 6+ months :/#anyway yep i see some mistakes but i'm not going to touch them because these are studies not masterpieces#and the fact that i can see my mistakes is a good thing anyway#anyway yea i'm still not like. using tumblr but i figured i'd share a little bit of what i'm up to in case anyone cares lol

completely normal roommates bonding over completely normal things like *flips through notes* murdering each other and having complicated opinions on giant alien bats
#continuing my brainrot over this weird bat i made up: the saga#yin art#fallen london#they're fallen london ocs. it technically counts. even if one is imported from another school#everytime i draw the scoundrel they get a little bit more creature and that is so wonderful#also their coattails became curly. i dont know how or when this happened. they've just sorta got a little train#like a loser#if the anatomy looks weird that is because i am also a loser and fail and lame.#anyway. the scientist! he made a cameo! he's just chillin! my lovely guy who exists to be tormented forever and ever#no he doesn't wash that coat. no he probably doesn't wash. stinky guy. he'd probably eat the soap if he tried#he is going through the horrors every second of every day and still he finds time to lace up his boots and serve like that#what an icon#also the scoundrel doesn't actually probably wear their robe like that. i mean they would but it's not like a design update thing#they just have it for this doodle bc it's a cute nod to their batsona#ive run out of things to talk about. guys. they exist. gestures at them. you can imagine the rest.#oh and there's a spade. of course.#because if you know you know 🏠#my condolences to everyone else in the FL tag who's normal and sane. makes you look at my cartoon ass ocs#no apologies to my followers however this is the price you pay for letting me exist unfiltered on your dashboard#scoundrelventures

Down time...
Just some VERY messy quick doodles. But it's soooo important to me.... bite bite kill kill bite chew gnaw chomp kill maim murder
+ some extra expressions I like enough to post (but please look away this is private........... like you don't really See Anything/it's cropped out, just suggestive LMFAO)
Mostly just bc of Moe tbh. I like how silly it is LMFAO
#man if it weren'f for the moe biting sketch i wouldn't even post these. but that one is just SOOOO GOOD LMFAOO#LIKE. first sketch i didn't even like that much and def wouldn't bother posting. i have a million of these.#really bare minimum too messy moefonses. they're fun in the moment but have no staying power#also v much a warm up. the thing i like most actually is moe again. the way it's resting is just really funny#LIKE. don't get me wrong. idk how even to explain it though. some work just feels not all there though. yet.#i mean i also did redo a lot of that sketch way more than i would have if i wasn't posting it. redid the poses esp#to flow better w the sequence. and VERY last minute decided it needed minimal touch ups#alfonse does look waaay better. he looked janky. not enough care into the nose. the nose is focal. it's loadbearing. ect.#ENOUGH nitpicking though the second reason i'm posting is bc i feel like these have focal moe characterization actually#beyond the actions. but the actions are v funny. but it's SO in the expressions.#WHICH IS WHY. I DID INCLUDE crops of the more suggestive doodles.#these moe expressions in particular feel so... moe. core moe expressions.#i actually really struggle to get sexually intimate moments right. which. may be ironic. considering#broadly gestures to moe's Tendencies. man i feel like i'm fleshing out SOOO much in that regard too though#like moe. how are you gonna be that fucking sexually open when you seem to have a history of being terrified of sex and intimacy as a whole#the answer is right in front of you. the fear. have you SEEN the way it is about lif that thang is NOT well adjusted about it!!!!!#BUT ALSO. AS I'VE BEEN. DEVELOPING MORE. i've actually been drawing kisses more. esp way more intentionally#and i've found that it works best if moe has a funny expression about it. you'll see what i mean eventually#but it seems VERY much like a signature look is developing and that's crazy to me. you see it a little bit when it licks alfonse LMFAO#idk idk big things are happening. here. congrats on whatever is occurring here moe#fe alfonse#moe tag#moe lore#my art#okay special shoutouts to alfonse too though. guy who just lets you do anything to him.#GIVEN. you have the rapport. the Trust. the comradery. the power of friendship. ect ect ect ect#alfonse has his own version of 'okay ❤️ yay ❤️' which probably sounds more like 'hm. compelling.'#summoner oc#I FOGORT

kuwabara sketch dump bc i had a dream where he was just sittin there last night and i love him and i miss him :((
#im just projecting onto him a little bit#had a profound experience sitting in front of a drum kit that i never posted about but wrote a long ass ramble about. rip kuwabara you#would've loved drumming#hey wait wasn't he the drummer in that band official art#HE WAS OMG#anyway default gesture/stim/filler action has become doing the rock on thing at people like. all the fucking time#and i've also been getting vaguely into metal bc my buddy has good taste and is very passionate about metal#so like. again im just having experiences that i am now channeling through him. think it would be really funny to draw him renovating a#bathroom or something bc that's also going on in my life. i mean im not doing it but i wanna make him do and then regret diy plumbing#yyh#yu yu hakusho#kuwabara kazuma#also posting this at like 5am bc that's when i did it and also it's kinda bad lol#sometimes posts are for me. that's all#skrunkart
