Well I like that tattoo but this might have to be a kill your darlings situation where I might have to say no to a left shoulder tattoo for the sake of 'less work for me'...

Finally finished this I think. The poll I put up about the clouds and moon tattoo ended in a tie between the 'Yes (keep it)' and the 'Yes (keep it), but simplify it' so I simplified it a little. Also realizing I've been waaaay over complicating his art deco tattoo but didn't feel like fixing it right now I will later probably.

Anyway! Some fun facts about him:

-When he's really tired he tends to just bounce between languages at random. So it can get hard to understand him.

-His handwriting is ATROCIOUS and only a couple of people can even come close to reading it.

-He loves to read just about everything, but especially trash novels. The trashier the better.

-The scar on his eyebrow is from running into a low door frame.

-The only person who knows his exact birth date and place is his mother and nobody's heard from her since he was eight.

I haven't been able to draw at all this week due to a particularly severe bout of depression brought on by irl shit.

This little sketch of Casey as a teen isn't a sign that things are getting better but damn did it feel good to get done.

[argothiathedreamer]

managed to continue the scene a little further because I thought of a kind of nonsensical joke.

[argothiathedreamer]

Finally done! The second in my Tarot cards for my OCs series! Izzy gets the Death card, it's a bit special because that skeleton isn't upside down for no reason. I love how the wings turned out and the next time I have to draw chains I might cry but it's done and I'm happy with it!

Tell Me All Your Thoughts On God

Enjoy this nice Izzy pic!

[argothiathedreamer]

All 8 Page WIPs! And we've hit the point where the scene in my head has ended. I guess what I do now is go back and finish the pages that are already done and start really thinking about what comes next.

I feel like I'm going to come to regret giving Casey that art deco tattoo...

TEXT????? In my dialogue boxes????? It's more likely than you think!

In other news poor decisions might be being made.

Casey and his favorite pastime: Reading anything and everything he can get his hands on.

How come I'm actually pretty good at drawing big cats but domestic cats are still a struggle?

Anyway, attempting to right a wrong in that Romero doesn't yet have a ref and I didn't include him in the height chart. Which is a CRIME and I deserve prison. But better late than never. Here is the boy!

Updated Heights of the FoC cast w/100% more Romero. There I've dodged jail time.

Everlasting

I could spend the rest of my life trying to pick at this until it was perfect and I don't wanna so

Have Izzy and a bunch of symbolism!

Enjoy because if I ever draw stained glass again it will be under duress.

[argothiathedreamer]

Working on a new ref for Casey and...

Loathe as I am to give myself MORE work nearly every time I draw him... I think he needs another tattoo. That left arm/pec are just giving me blank canvas vibes... still trying to decide what though.

[argothiathedreamer]

Work in Progress.

My cat likes to interrupt me when I'm right in the middle of working on something at precisely the moment where I'm starting to like it but I'm not ready to share it yet and this time I decided not to let him get away with it and post what I've got done anyway.

So yeah.

Apologies to the very dignified Crispin 'Nightwatch' Drake, who would rather not be spotted half naked (or half drawn as the case may be) but here we are.

Blame the cat.

I might end up scrapping this whole base because I'm iffy about how it turned out but by god you will look at that fucking tattoo because I spent hours on it.
