aaand here's deadlands! it didnt take seven months this time, who cheered?

i'll probably do another post grouping all of my line-ups together, but that's gonna wait for when i do the wyrdwood PCs as well :] more thorough design thoughts/smaller details will be under the cut, but im putting this here so that everybody has to know: their eye shines are all different card suits, except for nate, who gets J for the joker card :]

oxventurers guild | the hobby horses

unlike my other designs where i let everyone have individual colors/palettes, i tried to keep colors more consistent across these designs! the oxventurers guild has the fantasy element and theyre all very different, so the wide mishmash of colors are fine, and the hobby horses all have a lot of dark colors so that keeps them looking consistent together. but for these guys, i wanted a more consistent feel, so i tried my best to reuse colors between each design (especially between delacy and nate ^-^)

silas - ough. my boy. i wanted him to be broad with a strong build, and i hope i pulled that off :D i had so much trouble with his hat that i almost just didnt give him one, but eventually i decided it was better to just. give up and rock with it, even if he looks a bit like a mountie hbjgfjhd and he is wearing cowboy boots, theyre just tucked into his pants because he doesnt feel the need to flash them (looking at delacy, lol). he has spurs on his boots, even though he doesnt ride horses, because he likes the way they jangle <3

garnet - people really liked it when i gave garnet dark roots, so i have decided to always give her dark roots. i like how it looks hehehe and i also like to give her freckles!!! i think theyre cute!!! for the vest, i struggled for a while trying to capture the vibe of jane's vest, because its so so strange and specific in a way that makes it impossible for me to picture garnet without it. i'm pretty happy with where i landed with it, especially the pattern, since i've never tried to make a pattern like that before :3 i dont know why ive been loving patterns so much lately LOL but i will keep riding this wave and regret it later when drawing the designs again

edie - definitely the furthest departure from canon outfits, though still in the right wheelhouse. i just don't like drawing multiple layers of ruffled skirt. i didn't like how my sketches kept looking. i wanted to give her a skirt slit, especially after my friend reminded me about her thigh rifle holster. so today, i stared at a bunch of victorian ballgowns and party city costumes, and then completely redesigned her skirt before i lined these XD and i think it was worth it!! i love the layers and the way her rifle peeks out, and it meant i could show off more of her boots and give them a pretty design :]

delacy - my main thought going into drawing delacy was just. "i need to malnourish this boy" LMAO i refuse to believe that he is eating properly, i just know that he is not. otherwise, i mostly just stuck to the campaign art but scuffed up his clothes a bit. as implied on silas's notes, i very purposefully had his boots be Big. he's overcompensating a little bit :] also sorry i did not want to draw rooster so he just gets a generic handgun. i didnt feel like drawing complicated guns, and i wanted it to be a smaller handgun so that he could be poorly copying edie :') he has no trigger discipline but neither does edie so its fine

nate - that's just nate, baby!!! i think, canonically, he's meant to be a bit. emaciated. but i cant help but just picture him being a bigger guy, i think it fits his vibe better and its more fun for me to draw that way. i like having variety in body shapes, and garnet and delacy already have the rail thin thing down for this line-up. let my old man be fat !!! also. he has a weird nipple because he is transgender. heart emoji

"Why are you so afraid of that small child?"

Also known as the moment when I realised that the showdown with the episode's villain is going to be great

I cast a hex, sending a Catherine Wheel of sparks towards the roof.

Garnet is one of my favourite characters ever. I love how genuinely funny and outgoing yet level-headed she is. And how strong and dangerous she is when she needs to be. I can't wait to see how she starts acting as a fresh deputy.

Garnet seems like the kind of person who would play neopets. idk why

Garnet Munro, weird west demon-wielding magical girl.

Delacy looked small, standing in the middle of the dusty dirt road. He held his head high, his shoulders back, and his chin stuck out with a scowl on his face. He looked like the cover of one of those cowboy dime novels. Delacy stood like what he thought a man in a duel should look like.

Next to Nate, Miss Garnet shuffled her cards nervously.

Bellows stepped out into his position, his shadow falling long in the morning sun. The man looked unconcerned without a trace of tension in his posture. If anything, he looked amused. Bellows chuckled at the sight of the boy’s small, thin frame.

���Are you sure you’re old enough for this, son?” called Bellows.

“I don’t see what age has t’ do with shootin’ you dead, mister,” bit back Delacy.

Bellows laughed heartily. “We got ourselves a spirited one!” He glanced at Nate and Garnet with a malicious grin. “Seeing how you’re still so lively, I’ll give another chance to forfeit. No shame on tapping out and going back to your grandfather and aunt over there.”

“Nate ain’t my grandpa and Miss Garnet ain’t my aunt.” Delacy scowled. “I’m gonna kill you and take that prize money.”

That only made Bellows’ grin wider. “Very well then.”

“I don’t like this,” Nate whispered to Garnet. “Something doesn’t feel right.”

“The kid’s got good aim and he’s quick,” said Garnet, a tightness in her voice betraying her true feelings. “And with a little luck, he’ll win.”

Garnet shuffled her cards a little faster. If he had been paying more attention, he would have noticed the glow was from the cards themselves and not the bright sun.

What followed in the next seconds would be burned into Nate’s mind.

The clock chimed with the hour at the same moment the crack of a gun echoed through the town.

For a moment, the world stood still as a painting. Delacy had drawn his gun but hadn’t even had time to raise it. Bellows had his pistol pointed directly at the boy with smoke billowing out the muzzle.

Rooster fell to the ground from his grasp.

Delacy collapsed on the ground next to it with a lifeless thud that was as loud as another gunshot.

Nate’s legs felt like they had been turned to lead and his stomach was in his boots. His breath was trapped in his chest. He stumbled as he ran to the boy.

Delacy’s straw hat had fallen down next to him. His worn shirt and overalls were turning red with blood as his chest wound gushed. His eyes had already glazed over. He stared lifelessly at Bellows’ statue.

Delacy was dead before Nate got to him.

Nate pulled the thirteen year old into his arms and pressed his face to his shoulder. His own shirt became warm and sticky from the blood.

“Oh, Delacy,” Garnet whispered next to him, “No…”

“Mr. Janssen,” shouted Bellows, “I hear you’re a gravedigger. It seems I have need of your services. You may feel free to pick any plot you like to bury the boy in.” He gestured broadly to the headstone lined hill.

Nate’s chest rattled with a deep breath. He reached for Rooster and slide it back into the holster at Delacy’s hip. His holster, he noticed, was a few scraps of leather haphazardly sewn together. The boy probably made it himself.

Nate clenched his jaw so hard he was surprised his teeth didn’t crack. He watched as Bellows’ figure left the street for the gaudy mansion.

“Miss Garnet?”

“Yeah, Nate?”

“We’re gonna kill that bastard.”

Deadlands DnD Au Garnet sketches

[oxventurequotes]

delacy: if a fella was to say to you that they don't like jerky, you would consider that to be a lie?

garnet: definitely a fabrication

delacy: and is lying a sin?

delacy: I REMEMBER IT BEING A SIN

[a-casual-egg]

There's a point in The Town That Dreaded Justice where Silas mispronounces the word hypocrite because he's only seen it written down, and Johnny says "That's good, because it means he can read!" then when Jane/Garnet repeats that Silas can read, Johnny adds that he owes Jane/Garnet five dollars now as a joke. Looking back at it now, it's more likely that it's meant to be Johnny saying it to Jane, but at first I really thought that Nate and Garnet made a bet over if Silas can read in the short amount of time they've known him.

I think it's funnier if it's after Nate becomes a harrowed, like "Okay, so I know you're struggling with fact you're undead now but do you that guy who hates horses can read?". Actually, the joke implies that Garnet bet that Silas can read, so it's more like "Now, Miss Garnet, most of my thoughts are about how I'm now undead and how that, um, sucks, but there is one nagging thought in my mind and that is, can that very angry young man read?".
