#nomads fanart

[dark-overlord-of-rainbows]

Drawn Feb 28 2025 itty bitty a little lopsided since I just used some sketchbook doodles as the base (if anyone cares that original sketch was done on the 26th, same as this. I did these so tiny in comparison) @captain-juuter I still can't believe the comic's almost over....

Hey guys! To celebrate Nomads’ return in 3 days, I drew Poko in my style!

Nomads is by @captain-juuter on Webtoon. It’s an amazing series with super cool worldbuilding and interesting/lovable characters. I’m super excited for the return and hope some of you who haven’t seen it before come to love it just as much as me!

Incoming yap about the current genshin problem:

As a Chinese person swarmed by western media, Liyue means so, so much to me. Seeing the culture that I've been taught to be ashamed of all my life being represented so accurately and positively makes me incredibly happy. It was the first time I saw the famous landscapes that I've visited in person and recreated a fantasy game. Seeing characters wear clothes with similar designs to what I’ve worn and eating similar foods to what I’ve eaten, is indescribable. The euphoria I felt when I first climbed atop of Qingyun Peak and heard the music is something I wish I could experience again.

That being said, Sumeru was a mess, and Natlan is just depressing. What I would give to have people from SEA/SWANA, Latin America, Africa, and Indigenous groups etc. to feel the same way I did when strolling through Liyue.

HYV’s colorism isn’t just stifling their character designs; by whitewashing real-life people, real cultures and even their deities, they are inadvertently whitewashing history. They are taking from actual ethnic groups: learning their history and struggles, then retelling these narratives after replacing their people with bleached protagonists in orientalist clothing.

All this because of what? Out of touch beauty standards? The possibility of lower sales? Dehya is extremely loved in China and her fans donated thousands to a children’s charity in her name. Other Chinese companies like Lilith Games and Bluepoch don’t have this problem. Dislyte is able to consistently pump out gorgeous character designs with varying skin tones and Reverse:1999 makes accurate designs and does in-depth research into the cultures of their characters.

It’s a basic lack of respect.

I've heard that Iranian players were extremely happy and touched by their representation, and that's amazing. And most European, Chinese, and Japanese players are fine with theirs. I just wish this extended to the representation of people with skin tones that are darker.

HYV has shown that they are capable of making characters with darker skin tones and interesting designs, but they will only do that for npcs and enemies. Orientalism, culture mash-ups and inaccuracies across regions is unfortunately common in the game, but the problem with the unchanging pale color of playable characters reflects an obvious and sinister bigotry. I do personally believe that a lot of this has to do with the meddling of higher-ups; many playable characters look like they’ve been white-washed at the end of the process, and just from an art/design standpoint, they fit darker skin-tones much, much better.

It is impossible for Genshin to be a fully “fictional fantasy game” because they chose to bear the responsibility of incorporating real life cultures into their world-building. The criticisms about Sumeru and Natlan are what they brought upon themselves. If you don’t want to represent properly, don’t do it at all. You cannot take everything from a culture and leave their people out of it. They deserve the same respect and research as the region representing your own nation.

For the people who have seen themselves represented in media over and over again, or for those who do not care about being represented at all: even if YOU don't care, others do, and they have a damn good reason for it. This is a big deal, it isn’t too much to ask for, and I will be blocking racists. Peace.

I got a bit bored while drawing hypno Marie because I couldn’t get her mask right so I sculpted it.

I should get bored more often.

Mostly memes because what's a fandom without them 1: Drawn Nov 13 2024. "You're telling me a shrimp friend this rice" & "Apartment complex? I find it quite simple" 2: Drawn Nov 16 2024. "it is pride month, walter. you know what that means" literally just hastily edited this one before posting because Ididn't want to put too much more effort in this silly meme but I drew the directors body really badly idk why. 3: Drawn Nov 15 2024. "The smart kid, not understanding how he's losing to me/me, who's been eating his pieces when he's not looking" + I attempted a tiger cub and housecat saber. I'm not that good at drawing animals but I thought it'd be interesting to attempt comparing their proportions I think I've been preemptively "apologizing" about my art a lot again lately, I do mostly like my art now! but y'know how it is. I'm not gonna rewrite this Nomads is by @captain-juuter
