michael the archangel🙂‍↕️

finally i painted this!! i hope u like my version of him. i’m going to explain the design under the cut in case u want to read it :)

i tried to mirror lucifer and reverse it completely.

brown skin and blond hair. i made him have long hair because not only is the opposite of luci but also the cast is missing a man with long hair cmon!!!

overall soft features, brown bambi eyes. contrary of lucifer’s red foxy eyes. did u know there’s not a single character with brown eyes in obey me?? justice for my people.

honestly the colors was a challenge, obey me uses bright colors and pastel colors AND black and white for their angel designs. this was hell. considering my color palettes tend to be very desaturated and also limited, i tend to use max 5 main colors and that’s pushing it lol. so trying to find harmony in all that was hard.

i decided to use royal blue, because i think it goes very well with blond and decided to use that as his main color. which is ironic, bc luci is represented by blue. but tbh i associate lucifer with the color red more than i do blue.

as for the pastels, i had a conversation with a friend and told me she associate michael with wrath if we had to choose a sin for him. so that’s why i used pastel green. and orange. bc we need warm colors to blend with his skin/hair.

as for his clothes. i gave him a long cape (if u can call it that) that only covers the middle of his arms and stays in place thanks to the gold hoops at the sleeves. white pants with a pastel green gradient at the bottom to match with the bodysuit. this bodysuit looks the same on the backside too.

gave him some tiny wings near his head bc he’s a seraph in nightbringer. so they stayed in the design.

michael is a militar angel. so i tried to add metal boots (a suggestion from a redditor, a cool one btw!) but it just looked so out of place with all the gold and pastels that i opted for giving him a cool gold sword instead. (i wonder if he fought lucifer with that one)

and that’s pretty much it. i liked how it turned out considering i almost never draw full bodies. hopefully i can incorporate him more in my art from now on.

let me know what u think, if u like it or u hate it. i’m open for both opinions :)

Why does Cain wear different clothes from the rest of his family?

From a very young age, Cain showed typical angelic aversion to animal products. He doesn’t eat meat and can’t wear clothes made from animal fur or skin! Hence him eventually becoming a farmer and artisan. As a toddler, he developed a horribly painful rash that threatened his life. Luckily Gosh sent his uncle Michael to provide some clothes and healing for the boy.  Extra note: Michael was fully aware of what Cain was, but he told Eve and Adam to just ignore his differences, saying he was simply a ‘special child blessed by heaven’ to explain his abilities. Heaven didn't want to further encourage rebellion from Eve by reminding her of her ex lover. But of course, some things about Cain (specifically his ability to bend and influence light) would always make her think of Lucifer.

"When you and your uncle both master the menacing but slightly uncomfortable stance."

[hawthornebush]

Listen, if Michael isn't a goober and a nice guy who loves his brother and feels terrible about what happened then I will genuinely cry cause

A) we need more than Emily and Abel(?) For good angels

B) You have no idea how fun of an uncle he could be to Charlie

C) the absolute emotion he could bring to the show would be infinite

D) I am his biggest fan despite never meeting him and if he's an ass I will feel horrible cause Lucifer is my son and favorite to show up in the show

E) Lullaby for a A Princess. No I will not elaborate.

MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL Hieronymous Wierx, Quis Sicut Deus? (2016)

In Christian ethos, many different angels serve God. One of them is Michael the Archangel who leads God's army in the war against the red dragon Satan when he threatens to devour the divine child at the moment of his birth, who is none other than Jesus Christ. This powerful angel dwells at the right hand of God, a symbol that has persisted for thousands of years to convey God's noble goals. It is also attested in scripture that Jesus Christ stands at God's right hand at the great hour of judgment, which has led some theologians to interpret that Michael is actually Jesus in a different form. This is also plausibly reinforced by the meaning of Michael, which is 'Who is like God?' (Quis sicut Deus? in Latin). Their positioning at God's right hand has to do with how God was historically perceived as originating from the northern direction via the pole star, seen in the image of an All-Seeing Eye when all stars are observed as circumnavigating around the constant pole star at its center. When this eye-symbol of God looks down on Earth from the north, it is the western direction relative to our view that is thus His right hand. This direction sees the sunset into the western horizon where the glorious underworld exists, a place where all mortals should strive for their souls to travel in order to find paradise, as opposed to the eastern sunrise since it is the material realm of this world. All this ties in with the lore of the returned King Arthur as echoed in medieval British lore.

got the chance to pinch hit for the @spnangelbang for the excuse of drawing Adam as a unicorn which is something I didn't realize I needed to draw, a bold move for someone who can't draw horses. also even though this art looks weirdly...idk like it is, the fic is kinda dark so keep that in mind

for the first time I made a banner that doesn't involve a table or tree let's goo. decided to make this one a map with various fic-related elements on it (plus the band from the fic connecting the words in the title) and tried to kinda show the age of it by adding smudgy ink spots and a coffee stain and yeah idrk what I was doing here but the inspiration was an old map with fairytale-y vibes. this was made back when I thought the fic was more of a fairytale but it's actually not all that much of one. basically there's a reason the unicorn is black and it's not for aesthetic purposes

picked up this fic because unicorn reasons and unicorn reasons has manifested in the form of an art piece, albeit with a smaller canvas because I was on a bit of a time crunch. went crazy with layers on the background of this and idk how it turned out looking half decent when I'm pretty sure my eyes were at least a quarter of the way closed while I was doing this because it was very late. also Michael was supposed to be invisible but I couldn't make it look decent so he's just hiding behind the tree instead. also also I know his hair looks kinda like Dean's I can't stop thinking about that fact okay. also also also that other dude in the dark green robe is an OC from the fic and idk why he gives me Metatron vibes but he's very much not

this fic ended up being a lot darker than I thought it was gonna be so the art doesn't entirely match the vibe, especially since my art style tends to struggle with making things overly angsty or serious. I made another art piece to try to make up for that and came up with this. I don't think I've ever tried to draw a pained expression or anything even resembling cuts on someone's skin so it does look a bit wonky. tried to mirror the other art piece by having Michael in a similar position except actually somewhat in Adam's line of sight. this scene was originally a little more idk romantic I guess but that didn't fit the vibe of the fic too much and man I think I definitely went overboard with all the cuts (although that brush seems like a good fit for this kind of thing, gotta keep that in mind)

the fic this is made for is called "Never Leave" by @avalonsilver for the angels and demons bang

Michael Design (maybe)

This is my attempt of designing what Michael would look like (??) since idk if solmare is going to release a sprite for him in the last lesson so i took the matter into my own hands lol

I picture him as a tall man with long hair. blond, tan and brown eyes. some moles on his face and feminine features.

I used mostly Belph, Sims, and Satan’s angel forms as inspiration since it’s the ones i like the most out of everyone.

Glasses version:

This is still a work in progress bc i have never designed a character in my life so i’m not fully convinced this is what i want

Im open to suggestions btw!

Also, i’ve been trying to color this following official designs but it’s so hard for me to mix pastels and bright colors tgt and making it look good so😭😭 the struggle is real.

anyways enough of my rant. i will post it when it’s completed😝😝

only true fans witnessed this phase of mine in instagram

yikes

[pablohunie1993]

the trope of michael being less important does something to my brain. like you were practically fated to rebel and fall but you were gods favorite and hung the stars and no matter how close in proximity i am both literally and through service you retain this influence and empty space in place of your old self WHAAAAAT

[chapelofmyheart]

Does anyone have offering ideas for St. Michael? I already have an altar for him but there is a very small amount of offerings due to me not knowing what to add for him.
