Here is my #DrawThisInYourStyle drawing for @mary_dimary #dimaryredraw, so no repost this Tuesday 😉 . I haven’t done a challenge like this for a while, I just didn’t had the time for them, but when I saw this one I my feed, I had to! I love how the colours flow in the original and I had to see If I could do it too. I have been drawing a lot more laity with fluid colours, so I had a good idea on how I wanted to do it. And I feel it works! And I want to say, that the right inspiration makes for a brilliant piece of art! What do you think? I loved getting all the details in. So inspired by @mary_dimary there page I included my sketch for my work too. I do like to draw more of these kind of challenge again! So I need to find the time to do so! . #Meiillustration #DTIYS #create #procreate #prettygirl #dtiys #OwnYourBody #illustagram #challenge #BodyPositivity #FaministArt #prettyface #screibbling #pose #different #hair #enjoylife #eveninthebadtimes #happiness (at The Hague, Netherlands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSZcBzhDnYk/?utm_medium=tumblr

"He's following me."

Only 11 days to season 2! I've been so excited for it since the first scene in the first trailer - give me all of that good good ominous Yassen stalking after Alex...

(This is the start of an informal collaborative event with the aim of having at least one new art piece posted every day in the lead-up to season 2. If any artists out there are interested feel free to just jump in and contribute!)

A few light-hearted pieces I did for the Team Cherik Discord server; had a lot of fun with these! Thanks for all the good memories! ❤

the one where elf!charles tries to figure out how to cuddle with his dragon (but not really) boyfriend without getting impaled by his horns

ok no ACTUAL AU DETAILS BELOW CUT

For centuries, the Holy See of Ishgard had been locked in a bitter war with the dragons of Dravania. Ishgard itself is rife with internal turmoil: with the threat of the dragons a convenient excuse, the Temple Knights and the High Houses of Ishgard cemented their control over the city-state, turning a blind eye to the greed and corruption in their own ranks.

Charles, formerly the heir to the High House of Xavier, was usurped from his birthright due to House politics. Now, he is part of the Temple Knights, seeking to enact change to the system from within.

Erik is Au Ra, a race of people with draconic features hailing from the Far East. Fleeing the violence in their homeland, he and his family arrived at Ishgard only to find themselves caught in the middle of the Ishgardian-Dravanian war - and the Ishgardians immediately mistake them for allies of the dragons. Erik was the sole survivor of the ensuing massacre. Now, he seeks justice.

Thrown together by chance, Charles and Erik now have to untangle the complicated lies that obscure the origin of the Dragonsong War - that is, if their own differing ideologies don't tear them apart first...

Art for @kaydeefalls and their incredible Pacific Rim AU We’ll Show Them All, done as part of the 2020 Cherik Big Bang (@cherikbigbangandbingo)! Please absolutely read it if you like Charles and Erik reconnecting after ten years, Raven being awesome, mindmelds, and strength (and giant robots) in the face of adversity (namely, gigantic monsters from another dimension).

Link below, Pacific Rim knowledge absolutely not required to enjoy this fic!

  We'll Show Them All 

Pacific Rim AU. Ten years later, the monsters are back, and newly-instated Marshall Charles Xavier needs to pull a team together to prepare for the coming war. That means finding his talented sister a Drift-compatible copilot -- even if that turns out to be his old flame Erik.

What’s the favorite piece of art you’ve ever done?

THIS IS GOING TO SOUND TERRIBLE but I don’t actually have one - I tend to like individual things about certain pieces but not be particularly fond of them as a whole, if that makes sense?

Although some standouts are “take me back to the start” which is one of the first major pieces I sat down and did a lot of planning on composition, colour, storytelling etc before diving (heh) into the actual art; “answers” where I really sat down and thought about colours and lighting; wholesome buggame memorial where I really started appreciating the use of texture and actively incorporating it into my art.

And just so this post isn’t devoid of content, here’s a piece I liked that I never posted on Tumblr! I really liked how the patterning and highlights in the obi came out.

Happy year of the metal (lab)rat! Wishing everyone luck, prosperity, and good health for the coming year!

Erik won the first game, though Charles hadn't made it easy. Erik rose to refresh their drinks -- the rain had yet to ease, blast it -- and when he returned Charles' tumbler, their fingers brushed.

Some last second unofficial pinch hit art for @ireneadonovan and her Big Bang entry Learning Curves featuring Charles as the tutor for Erik’s three rowdy kids! Can you believe I’ve never done anything with Charles and Erik and chess before now?

riding the silent wind a falcon flies alone, reaching out with his wings, grasps the empty sky we’re far from the ones we love and never can we return, never can we see again, the countries of our birth

some sketches vaguely connected to the high fantasy au ficlet I posted awhile back! dragoooonsssssss

to listen, to suffer, to entrust unto tomorrow

ffxiv-inspired AU for cherik! bigger size, lineart (feel free to colour/ask me for a transparent png)!

For anyone interested, the AU details are below the cut - warnings for possible (very vague) spoilers for the Coil storyline!

Eorzea is a land locked in eternal conflict. The invading Garlean Empire constantly harass the borders of Eorzea, seeking to annex the entire territory. Closer to home, the beast tribes — those races which are half-man, half-beast — have forever been engaged in territorial disputes with the humanoid races of the Eorzean city-states. However, the beast tribes have one advantage: they’re capable of summoning primals, massive god-like beings brought to life through an immense quantity of aether and the fervent, desperate prayers of the devout.

Primals have ever been a weapon of last resort. Anyone within their proximity falls under their thrall and loses all free will — a process known as “Tempering”. Worst yet is their effect on surrounding lands; to sustain their existence, primals must constantly drain the land of aether until the very land itself dies.

The primals were a nigh undefeatable threat against the city-states until the arrival of Archon Xavier and his followers from a land far away. At the same time, a lone adventurer quickly began making a name for themself, and will later be known as the Warrior of Light. By all accounts, Archon Xavier and the adventurer joined forces, pooling their knowledge and martial skills to fell primal after primal.

Then, five years ago, the Calamity struck. In a mad ploy to annihilate Eorzea completely, one of the Garlean commanders sought to bring the red moon crashing down onto the land. They succeeded — partially. In its descent, the red moon cracked open, revealing that it had never been a moon at all; it had been a prison, a device that had captured and held a massive Elder Primal for centuries upon centuries.

Furious from its eons of imprisonment, Bahamut laid waste to the whole of Eorzea. Mountains split, rivers and lakes evaporated in an instant, verdant meadows became plains of ice and snow. Massive, corrupted aetheric crystals sprouted throughout the land.

But something stopped Bahamut. Most speculated it was Archon Xavier — who has been officially declared dead by his comrades. Others insist it must be the Warrior of Light, but strangely, nobody can quite recall what the Warrior looks like, and they seem to have vanished off the face of Eorzea entirely...

In the present day, Erik Lehnsherr is an adventurer newly-arrived to Eorzea. It doesn’t take long for him to make a name for himself, and he finds himself often being favourably compared to the fabled Warrior of Light, who has now faded into myth and legend.

What he doesn’t tell anyone is the strange dream-visions he has, of a field of starry black, of a towering blue crystal that stretches higher than the eye can see.

Of the blue-eyed man that waits for him every time he dreams that same dream, who greets him with a smile and a soft: “My friend...”

Then Erik hears reports of primal activity. A forest drained of aether. People in the surrounding hamlets, looking to the sky, their empty eyes blazing with unearthly hope. He will deliver us.

But that should be impossible — there’s no beast tribe in the area...
