HUALIAN PAPER-DOLLS
i make a humble offering of hualian paperdoll templates that i drew up.. free use for whatever idrc i just made these for fun! they r based on the donghua designs bc it was easy to find high quality images in could colour pick. tbh there are a few errors since i basically just made them for myself but they’re based on the vocaloid project sekai paperdolls so if you know how to put those together these should be pretty easy to figure out. fafa and gege + optional hat :)

WIP Wednesday Progress
Yes, i know it's Thursday. I wasn't feeling great yesterday though XD
Here's what I managed to get done from the results of last week's poll!
Here's what the results were: -write 1 sentence for Elisabeth and Jasper -Work on my recipe card(s) for at least 5 minutes -work on the drawing for Vanora and Faolan for at least 5 minutes -spend at least 5 minutes working on Vanora’s winter weather outfit -and play Our Life again
and the results below the cut!
Elisabeth and Jasper floriography prompt: larkspur, first time making someone laugh
"..Besides, I did try to point that out myself, but alas, he would not be moved."
MXTX food zine sketching
My phone will not focus on it at all, but the bit i worked on may have involved a decorative little paper airplane ;)
Vanora's winter outfit
My fashion illustration class was a long time ago and not a great experience either, so i don't really remember how you're supposed to draw chonky knit wear, but this is working well enough for me. Also, decided to make her belt more of a woven material (tried sketching it as rope/ cord but that looked bad) instead of something like leather to have ALL the textures! and a seashell shaped buckle. because i can. Is this what someone from the tropics would think of to wear in colder weather as opposed to my native to colder weather thinking what would be good? i'm not sure xD Once i get the base of this outfit done, though, she'll have two different coat options; a ruana that she probably would've picked up at some point, possibly before acquiring said chonky sweater, and an actual wool coat the bard in our party, Peach (played by @december-snow) picked out for her a few sessions ago when we learned we'd be travelling into some mountains and it's just about winter in game :3 I'll draw those as separate things, sort of like a paper doll situation.

Play Our Life again
I finished step one with my redo of Sylvie's file, since I got a new computer and started step 2! I'm trying to remember how i did things on my old computer, but I guess we'll see how it goes xD Saving the Runaway moment for last always feels appropriate for step one though...
I didn't manage to do more for the drawing for Vanora and Faolan this week, unfortunately. I looked at some reference things on pinterest, but didn't specifically work on the drawing, and they were some i already had saved. I have a few days of working from home, and a long weekend next weekend, so I hope to make some more progress on it then!
Since i've been a little under the weather lately, I'm skipping a poll this week, but will probably be back with a new one next week, to take advantage of my longer weekend next weekend ;)

One of my favorite things about MDZS (the novel in particular here) is the magic. It doesn’t have a hard magic system precisely, but it sure relies a lot on both genre conventions and taking common idioms that get turned into a bit of clever magic.
I know it got limited a bit by budget constraints (and possibly restrictions of supernatural elements being portrayed on tv), but I always liked this scene.
We last left off meeting the ghost of Ā-Qìng, though she just disappeared after something freaked her out. That something was this:
The sinister fog had grown thin for a time. Now it was gradually starting to swirl around again. But they spotted a sorry-looking figure that burst through the white fog and was rushing towards them. The person was dressed all in black and seemed to be injured, staggering as he fled. A sword was hanging from his waist and wrapped in black cloth. Lán Jǐngyí softly said, “Is that the mist-faced man?”
Lán Sīzhuī quietly answered him, “It mustn’t be. The mist-faced man’s martial art movements were completely different from this person.”
Who could that be, I wonder? :P
While they debate who it is and how to save them, WWX springs into action.
Pondering for a moment, Wèi Wúxiàn moved away from the window and back into the main showroom. The group of young disciples couldn’t help but track him with their eyes. He was just looking at the group of various paper dolls and was quietly standing between two large wreaths. Wèi Wúxiàn then slowly walked along in front of the display before pausing in front of a pair of female paper dolls.
Each doll had its own unique appearance, yet this pair seemed to have been specifically made to look like twin sisters. Their eyebrows curved with their smiling faces. It was like one could hear them “teehee-ing” with cheerful laughter. Their hair was pulled into double-buns while adorned with red pearl earrings, gold bracelets around their wrists, and embroidered shoes on their feet. They were definitely meant to be servants for a very wealthy family.
Wèi Wúxiàn said, “These two will do.”
He smoothly drew one of the young disciple’s sword from its scabbard and lightly swiped across its edge, drawing open a cut across his thumb. He turned back towards the pair and put a pair of eyes on each of them, four eyes in total. Right after, he took a step back and with a faint smile said, “Coy eyes demurely closed, laughter escapes lips of cinnabar. Good and evil matters not. Painted eyes awaken and heed my call.”
A gust of yīn blew in from who knew where and enveloped the entire shop. All of the young disciples unthinkingly took tight hold of their swords.
Suddenly, the twin sister paper dolls gave a violent shudder from head to toe.
A moment later, there really was the “teehee-ing” sound of laughter floating out from their scarlet lips!
The Painted Eyes Summoning Spell!
So neat! I also feel woefully unskilled when it comes to the task of wording magical incantations ORZ. Especially incantations that come from Northern and Southern Dynasty era poetry. Sorry He Sicheng. I definitely butchered this!
As most of you probably already know, the four types of supernatural creatures in this novel comes from an actual idiom just meant to convey all manner of supernatural beings (妖魔鬼怪). Here’s another example of a bit of an idiom and an old legend getting turned into magic!
The Painted Eyes Summoning Spell is written as 点睛召将术 but the interesting bit I’ll focus on here is 点睛 (diǎnjīng) more literally means “dot the eye.” It’s from a longer idiom 画龙点睛 which means something to the effect of “adding the finishing touches” or kinda like “getting the final word in to make a point.” That sort of thing. But the origin of the phrase itself comes from a legend!
It means to “to dot the eye when painting a dragon” and the belief was that if you added this detail to a dragon painting, you could bring it to life.
So this combines both the old and new meaning to bring the dolls to life! It’s just a very clever use of wordplay and old folklore to me. I like MXTX’s take on using common language to create her magic.
I’m also the dumbass that went a decade without realizing Knockturn Alley from Harry Potter was a wordplay on “Nocturnally.” So I will admit I’m not at all clever and therefore very easily entertained.
