So, by the way, does anyone have sources for really solid historical documentation on traditional outfits from the SWANA region, especially before colonialism happened, and very preferably from first hand fashion researchers? I'm trying to build myself a small collection to understand what the hell I'm doing when I'll attempt redesigning OoT gerudos a little (keeping some elements but making them les… Like This), but a lot of what I find is from european scholars. If you have any book or series or text or anything that you think might be a staple of that particular subject, I'm super interested!

🫀EROS, GREEK GODS AND JEWELRY🫀

Gold earrings, Greek c.300 BCE, the MET Museum.

I'm in loveeee with these earrings! Depictions of gods in jewelry were common in Ancient Greek, especially the God of love, Eros.

These types of motifs were not only used by the Ancients, though. In the next photo, we can see depicted a centaur, its body made of a baroque pearl and decorated with sapphires and rubies.

Pendant in the form of a centaur, 16-17th century, the MET museum.

Another example, again, from the early 17th century, is this gorgeus pendant of Neptune on top of a sea monster:

Pendant in the Form of Neptune and a Sea Monster, early 17th century, the MET museum.

When I see objects from the past, I sometimes wonder who owned them. In this case, I think they were really lucky (and rich, too).

In all seriousness, this is my first post in English!! :) yaaay

the costumes of HotD arent Bad per se, but i really wish they had given it its own visual identity instead of leaning so much on the GoT aesthetic. like if there ever was a time to lean into like a byzantine aesthetic or the like, it would have been here

SOME STICK OF TRUTH ART

they are consuming my brain, i love them

At first I didn't ship them but their fics are always so good

I took some liberties with their designs too, mostly with kenny's dress and kyle's crown. I tried to make kenny's dress more historically accurate.

Though it ended up being more like me sticking whatever I liked on one dress lmao. I also added more jewlery, because, royalty.

First Heartbreak

A Rensuke Kunigami x Fem! Native! Reader drabble, not really a full on detailed fic. Based off of this post and an angst of Kuni and the reader. Might make a yandere vers. follow up or something. Non Natives can interact, just be respectful of the culture!

Your jaw is tight as you string three more of the same colored beads into the fabric, the thread tightening and securing it into your piece. It feels too quiet for you and you hate it. You hate not hearing the sound of a soccer ball being kicked, the little grunts of him giving it his all and pushing himself to be better, you hate when you pierce your finger with your needle because you miss him kissing it better, but you just mostly hate the fact you miss him at all.

You don't realize you're crying until you feel a tear fall on your thumb and you sigh. You loved this park but you have to get up now, because memories of you and him still lingered there. Moving to Japan in middle school was hard for you, the way everyone stared at your hair. The way you heard them whisper about your jewlery and earrings. The way they made fun of your dialect when you spoke, mocking your accent because they hadn't heard it from any other tourist from other countries. You were alienated for a while until you met Kunigami.

He asked you about your jewelry first. You tried your best to explain to him about the significance it had to your culture, how you used it as a creative outlet and how you felt more in touch with your people with it. Then he asked another question and then another, not trying to be annoying but out of sheer curiosity and intruige. It was the beginning of your beautiful relationship and now you were beginning to experience your first heartbreak.

"Fuck does it even matter now?" You think, your anger consuming your sadness, "Bet he's gotten over it already."

He wasn't the same now. He wasn't the kind and loving Kunigami you knew before, the person who came back from Wildcard was a completely different person. You wished so hard that you could be numb to him, care about him a little less and focus on anything else but you couldn't. Being with Kunigami had been such a dream but it was time to wake up now. You wiped your tears away and tried to keep a straight face. One that had no tears and would get past your family without any prying or teasing, one that you could take off behind the safety of your door and hide under a blanket for a while.

Kunigami laid down on his side, the pillow on his head and the necklace you made for him in his hand. It reminded him of the historical beaded jewelry he'd seen in many displays, yet it was still so different. You had beaded a soccer ball emblem on it, which you apologized since you knew it was basic but he had disagreed. He had never seen anything like it before, no one had ever even made him anything like it before. It was meant for him but it was just so...so you. He still loved the texture, his thumb caressing the beads gently as he imagined what it must've been like for you to get them all arranged into the picture you wanted it. The exposed synthetic buckskin comforted him and broke his heart at the same time. The beading details you had done one the lace that went around his neck was orange, like his hair, combined with colors patterns from your tribe and clan. He put it under his pillow as he felt his eyes get tired...or maybe it was because the tears starting at the corners of his eyes began to bother him a little.

He remembers when things went downhill.

When he became colder to you, he hadn't meant too but you were just such a distraction. After his failure in the Blue Lock and being given a second chance, he couldn't afford another distraction, but he also didn't want to let you go. He didn't want to live with that regret...maybe that's why he acted like that, so you'd push him away instead and he wouldn't feel so bad. He was wrong. It only made him feel worse.

At least he still had a piece of you. Slipping his hand under his pillow, he closes his eyes and lets his thoughts go. He remembers your hand running through his hair and the way you sang to him, your voice moving and shifting in a melodic yet soothing way as you sang vocables. Sometimes you'd sing round songs from pow-wows your people had, other times you'd just sing what you wanted too until you messed up, laughing at yourself when your voice cracked awkwardly and him laughing with you. He'll miss those moments but they'll be back soon.

He promises.

When he becomes the World's Greatest Striker, the first thing he'll do is make it up to you. Try to make you see that he had to act the way he did to accomplish his dream and how he'd be better, not just reverting back to being your old Kunigami but someone better; someone not so niave and easily shaken. He'd be stronger and he'd be better.

And you'd take him back.

Right?

What type of clothes do u think Sylvia wears😽😽

idk y but her in a black track suit w a simple red tank top pops up in my head??? and she has hints of gold jewlery???? but i feel like the way im thinking about it is a lil TOOOOO 2000s SO in a more general sense

the way she dresses is simple but effective, it makes her look good, she wears both jeans and skirts, she has a black leather jacket, if u want me to be as close as historically accurate as possible, she’d dress along the lines of wanda woodward from cry baby in her black leather jacket and red scarf tied around her neck, just w more edge to her

NOW IF WE WANNA REALLYYY GET INTO MY IDEA OF SYLVIA heres some pics of her general outfit to me

imagine the purple top is red lmao

i feel like angela looks up to her and that kinda rubs off on sylvia that she somewhat dresses like the cool aunt, it also does kinda rub iff on angela w the way she dresses

sylvias color pallet to me is mainly red and black and w angela its like pink and brown

and before anyone says anything about this not being historically accurate i stated multiple times most of the time ion see these characters in their setting of the 60s in my head they r a weird blend of the 60s and the future or just in the 2000s🙄🙄

im sorry for yalping u asked such a simple question but i love designing characters</33

Imagine if the guy who designed totk Ganondorf got to also write his story. Sweet baby Ghirahim, that would have been one memorable story-quest.

The Ganondorf Designer has so much love for the guy in their heart, and I really wish them everything in the world and I would love for them to just.... express their entire vision one day.

Like the amount of subtext and detailing in his design that feels like it should mean something but doesn't is truly.... yeah, it kind of makes me sad! The careful historical and mythological references that don't really build up any parellel to anything deeper in the actual game, the one side covered/one side bared situation (with the one side bared being how we get to see gerudo tattoos and jewlery), the absolutely gorgeous, rich and ornate inner layering of his outfit VS the sober dark tone of the outside... The outfit tells such a complicated story! it's kind of a waste to have all that built-in subtext and barely using it at all. :(

New Project - Movement Mindmap and Initial Concept - 'Movement Through Time' (11/01/23)

When I heard the word movement I began to think about movement of the body or movement in nature, but these ideas didn't jump out at me. But then I began to think about movement in terms of travel. I still wasn't gripped at this stage but then I thought of the concept of Movement Through Time (aka time travel) and my physics/history interested brain lit up with excitement. Time travel combines two of my interests history and physics whilst looking at movement also.

I made a rough mindmap and then made a timeline of periods that I want to move between

I plan to 'time travel' (mentally move through time) from the pre historic period to modern day. My plan is not to make a sculpture of a time machine but to allow my paintings and prints to mentally transport me through the periods with their period focused subjects/styles. I plan to travel through time with my animations as well.

I have gathered some objects for my inspiration box which includes history books, old toys, jewlery and photos, a venician mask , an old style quill and much more

I plan in getting a better understanding of the science theory of moving through time by watching documentaries (such as Steven Hawkings documentary 'Genius - Can we Time Travel?' ) on national geographic and then using them as inspiration for my works. I also planning on watching history documentaries on national geographic to gain a better understanding of the historic periods that I want to move between.

I also want to link my disciplines well throughout the project so I made a list of possible opportunities to do so:

I have also had a very brief look at possible artists and artworks that look at time travel or make artworks on historic periods that I could use as inspiration for my works including John Stezaker, Nick Morely (printing) and the animated film Mr. Peabody and Sherman by Dreamworks Animation Studios (animation)

My three disciplines:

Painting

Animation

Printing
