favorite female character of the year

if you hate her i hate you

[kalbaishakhi]

Inspired by this

[the-overanalyst]

it's always so fascinating and heartbreaking when a character in a story is simultaneously idolized and abused. a chosen prophet destined for martyrdom. a child prodigy forced to grow up too fast. a powerful warrior raised as nothing but a weapon. there's just something so uniquely messed up about singing someone's praises whilst destroying them.

Artwork done for Subterranean Press's limited edition of The Dragon Republic by R.F. Kuang. I really enjoyed working on this one, too. I love the ocean and bodies of water and stuff like that :)

Sketches and other bonus content are available on my Patreon.

After sparring

I'm so miserable

[queenofnabooty]

this is my understanding of the trilogy so far

[blackthornarchives]

‘I have become something wonderful, she thought.

I have become something terrible.

Was she now a goddess or a monster?

Perhaps neither. Perhaps both’

Rin x Nezha / TDR Fanart

They continuously break my heart every single day.

.

“You poor thing,” she said.

“What are you talking about?” he asked.

She just hugged him tighter. She didn’t want this moment to end. She didn’t want to have to go. “I just don’t want the world to break you.”

I'm running out of ideas for the backgrounds

but here they are Unegen and Baji

I am currently doing aratsha

[kalbaishakhi]

Can we talk about how Kitay is confirmed to be aroace and was the only person not affected by the Vipress' charm, while Rin was down bad, helplessly enamored by her whenever she looked at her??

Rin I know what you are. 🏳️‍🌈

[jexversea]

the most sad part about the ending is the fact that they can't never fulfill their hope and dreams for their country since they only talk about it with each other. nobody alive knows about what it. rin wanted a free tuition for school, venka wanted to make a rule to punish sexual predator, kitay wanted to preserve ancient text in every university.

and yet, the country they fought for. the country they spend their blood, sweat, and tears, will have none of that.

their dreams are buried with them.

I worked on a limited press run of The Poppy War series by R.F. Kuang, published by Subterranean Press. Featured here are the cover art and interior illustrations for The Poppy War.

I also did work for book 2, The Dragon Republic, and book 3, The Burning God! Those will be posted soon!
