[original drawing date: 11th Apr 2023]

Start of another giant project of mine, drawing a bunch of my OCs in various outfits they're usually in. Unlike a bunch of my other projects, though, I'm not trying to draw all of them at once and not trying to keep all of them stylistically identical - I draw them when I draw them, and the only consistent thing is they're all scaled to each other.

Anyway, here's Theta, who I decided to give a slight redesign to cuz I wasn't entirely sold on her current hairstyle. In order:

Default

Casual (also highlights what she wears under her boots and hoodie

Fancy

Empowered (showing off her Soulward power and her summoned axe, and also her hair down)

Undyed hair (to show what her natural hair colour is and how she looks with it)

I also played around with her hair colour but decided the blue looked too good so I kept it.

[commodoresigma-personalblog]

once again, another large project series (though this one I’m explicitly trying not to make myself complete all of them and then have the project stall, instead taking them one at a time whenever i have the drive) of taking some of my ocs and drawing some outfits and stuff for them.

Started with Theta, who I wanted to tweak the design of a bit.

First is her default, second is more casual loungewear, third is a fancy outfit for going out, fourth is her with her Soulward power and summoned axe out (because y’know she has powers and stuff) and the last is her with undyed hair.

white flames

winter, white season snow and ashes, hidden hearts; a flame burns soulwards

the darkest night of the year shows the fire blazing in me

Oh breath don’t fail me now, my heart beats firm and proud. Oh feet dare carry me towards a calm shore. Oh eyes would you deny a shadow does reside in warring winds and in the landscape of my mind. Darkness gently takes my hand, guides me towards desolate lands, gloats while whispering his commands. Sing forth, unleash the siren. Wild soul, soar and obey. Bow down, no more defiance, all your cries will be futile. Sing forth, unleash the siren. Wild soul, or burn at the stake. Bow down, dance on the pyre. Crucified! Erased! Oh stand my ground, be soulward bound. Once upon a darkened night, pure evil shone his light: “Sing forth, you worthless witch, or face your own demise”. Claws ensnare my weakened voice, tightening slowly with his words, douse my flame without remorse. Sing forth, unleash the siren. Wild soul, soar and obey. Bow down, no more defiance, all your cries will be futile. Sing forth, unleash the siren. Wild soul, or burn at the stake. Bow down, dance on the pyre. Crucified! Erased! Ah! Maleficence is here. Ah! In eerie nights and waking dreams. Viator peraudax provoca timores. Delius hum Vader dixit: Indigna Delius hum Vader dixit: Obdura Delius hum Vader dixit: Te perdam Delius hum Vader dixit: Te deferam Sing forth, unleash the siren. Wild soul, soar and obey. Bow down, no more defiance. Crucified! Erased! Thou hast, unleashed the siren. Behold, I will prevail. Go forth, build your own pyre, all your cries will be futile. Thou will, face your own demons. Behold, hellfire awaits. None shall delude the devil. Crucified! Erased! ✧ #diannevangiersbergen #DIANNE #afterthestorm #Soulwardbound #soloalbum #symphonicmetal #frontwoman #womaninmetal via YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGI-f90QbDs

15 for Sueenie! @heartmxss

platonic prompts: send a symbol for my muse’s reaction to the following!

[carrying them (piggyback, over shoulder, etc.)]

Sueenie couldn’t help but chuckle, especially after the short stunt she pulled in order for Morty to give her a piggyback ride. She feigned weakness and pretended to trip, acting like she banged her foot on the road too hard. Besides, she didn’t expect today to be so muggy, and if she was forced to walk in high heels in this heat, she might as well collapse. Good thing Morty didn’t mind. She hoped.

Yo mod, that post about dnd was officially debunked: op isn’t Jewish and Jewish folk have stated that don’t even use that word for that object. I mean we still don’t have to use that word for the dnd thing but the outrage was fabricated

why. are people. like this. well anyway now I don’t like the word so much so maybe I’ll use some of the cool other suggestions given to me including but not limited to:

Koschei (Russian folklore egg thing???)

soulward (love this one bc it makes me think of squidward)

reliquary, Talisman, Trinket, Periapt, Idol, Keystone, Charm, symbol, emblem, insignia, Lure-

and my personal favourite;

bitchinabox

--

OH NEW UPDATE apparently Koschei is a dude!

so hey that’s a thing to know, maybe we can call it after him? like a Koschei-object. Koscheiegg. Koscheithing? 

... Koscheilajig.

“That magic was too near to daylight.”

He didn’t want to say that it frightened him, that it made him wonder what his mate REALLY was.

2 for Eusine!

platonic prompts: send a symbol for my muse’s reaction to the following! (Currently not accepting)

[tending to their wounds]

💜 “Guess I must’ve slipped too far towards the current,” Eusine chuckled, then winced slightly at the small cuts on his exposed back. Although, all his pain was immediately forgotten once the Gym Leader soothed his back with some bandages.

He was practicing his powers in a secluded river, until his mind thought it’d be a great idea to sink deeper in the water. Was he suicidal? Possibly. But the Gym Leader didn’t need to know that. What he did need to know, at least in his opinion, was the scar traced across the front of his chest.

“Oh, don’t worry about the other side. That was the scar from Unova I got Arceus-knows-when. I forgot when I got it…”

The last line cements it all for me.

Living without fear is everything.

Devils & Ghost Trains

Starter for @pathofthedemon

It was sunset and the hustle and bustle of Limbo town were starting to wind down. At least, the parts of the town where the living lived. As the furry and fleshy townsfolk yawned and closed up their shutters, graves and tombstones began to quiver in their graveyards, eager for the garish sun to vanish behind the mountain tops. Finally, when the pink and purple hues of dusk gave way to starry velvet of night, the old cemetery church bell rang out into the night. Soon the bone orchard was humming with the noise of ghosts, skeletons and other ghouls eager to get out into the fresh night air.

Among them was Bonely Bonachard, a short, stocky skeleton in black and purple pinstripes chatting away with the tall, lanky grave keeper he called his brother. As only human awake in the area, Salem Bonachard took his job as cemetery caretaker very seriously - especially when his cemetery doubled as the towns Soulward Train Station. But it was always nice to have a good laugh with his late brother, even if he was a skeleton. 

Bonely grinned stretched, his joints crackling like rice crispies. “Aaaaaaah, that’s better. Yeh think anythin’ interestin’ll happen tonight?” he asked with a casual yawn.

Salem sighed and rested his chin on the end of his shovel handle. “Dunno, but after that fiasco with the last batch of red-ticket ruffians, I’m ready for a good, quiet night in.”

Bonely snorted and opened his mouth to reply when something caught his eye sockets. He looked over and grinned mischievously. “Well, looks like ‘quiet’ ain’t gonna be your night. We got a visitor Sal,” he chuckled, pointing to a new face complete with upturning horns and a plush white bow tie. “Well c’mon, ain’t good manners teh leave a visitor waitin’.~”
