Top Image

[ID: A black and white digital drawing of Jon and Martin from the podcast the Magnus Archives. The painting is in portrait format and in the style of a printed etching. Jon and Martin are depicted in a dark alley with bare brick walls. Martin is sitting on the ground with his back to the viewer. He is a fat man wearing dark trousers, a light, knitted sweater and has a short, slightly curly haircut. There is a satchel on the ground next to him and he is clutching a short pocket knife in both hands, with which he is threatening Jon. Jon is depicted as an inhuman monster of the Beholding. He is made up entirely of unblinking eyes assembled in the vague shape of a thin human standing in the dark corridor, close to where Martin's feet are. Tendrils of eyes lift up around Jon's "head", giving the impression of long flowing hair being caught in a breeze. The background around Jon is entirely black, showing that the alley continues into unseen depths behind him. /End ID]

Bottom Image

[ID: A digital illustration of Jonathan Sims and Jane Prentiss from the podcast The Magnus Archives. Jane is in the foreground, kneeling on the ground in a pile of white worms and is clutching her face with both hands and crying out in fear and pain. She is outlined in black and colored in green. Worms are crawling from holes that riddle her body and dress, tangled in her lanky black hair, and filling her mouth and empty eye sockets. A semi-circle of lines branch out from her head emphasizing her pain. Jon looms behind and over her, depicted as a black silhouette littered with staring white eyes. Jon's hair flows out in each direction, providing more eyes with structure to cling to. The eyes here are aligned in concentric circles, their corners all pointing towards the middle of Jon's face. Jon's head is framed by a large poisonous green eye, his head and hair taking the place of the pupil. All of Jon’s eyes are trained on Jane in the form of a green cone of light that shines down and frames Jane. More large eyes staring at Jane dot the dark purple background. The purple of the background fades into black. /End ID]

(Thank you to @franzis-frantic-thoughts for the ID!)

[ID: A semi-realistic digital painting of Jon and Martin from the podcast The Magnus Archives embracing on a bed with a carved wooden headboard. The picture is fully coloured and in portrait format. Jon is depicted as a thin British Persian man with brown skin and dark long hair that falls over his shoulders. The hair as well as his goatee are streaked with grey. Jon is wearing purple sweatpants but no shirt. The artist has depicted Jon’s canonical scars: a cut to the throat, various scratches, rope burn around the wrists, a burn on his right hand, circular worm scars on various spots, a lightning-like scar on his left forearm and a large explosion burn on his left upper arm. One top surgery scar is also visible. Jon also has a bleeding wound in the center of his chest and blood dripping from his lips. Martin, a white man (British, Polish, South African heritage) with stronger shoulders than Jon is depicted with wavy ginger hair and a full beard. Both his beard and fringe are tinged with white. He is pale and has freckles over his face and a scar on his neck. He is wearing blueish grey plaid pyjamas and is holding Jon in his lap. Martin supports Jon’s back with his right arm and covers the other’s bleeding wound with his left hand. Jon is grasping this with his right one while cupping Martin’s jaw with his left. The two are looking at each other. Jon has a small smile on his face while Martin is frowning and crying gently. The picture is lit from the top left in warm yellowish light and the artist’s signature is visible on the left, it reads “Yellow Vixen”. /End ID]

Fanart of @theineated fanfic Jonathon Sims and the Bookhunting Goth as part of the @tmabigbang !!! I had alot of fun drawing these, go check out the fic :-D!!!

[ID: Image 1: Digital art of a Corruption Encounter as described in the podcast the Magnus Archives. The painting features both fully and purple/lavender monochrome coloured characters. The scene is set in a subway cart. To the left, a very thin woman, visible from the hem of her dress up to her neck, stands and holds onto a rail. She has light skin and is wearing a yellow spaghetti strap dress. Patches of skin are missing, on her arms, throat and hand, revealing muscles and sinew beneath. There are many long, oval scars on her arms as well as holes in her flesh where yellow and red, segmented works emerge. On the monochrome seat behind her, a monochrome suitcase is visible. On the seat beside it, a man is sitting. He too is rendered in monochrome, except for the bright red tie he wears beneath his knitted vest. The man has short hair, an angular jaw and looks terrified. His teeth are gritted and his eyes narrowed as he looks to his right at the woman in yellow. Sweat is dripping from his face and a dark shadow falls over the top half of his face. The man seems to be making himself as small as possible, tucking in his knees and holding his arms close to his chest. He is clutching a fully coloured book in his hands in front of his torso. The book is wrapped in brown leather and sports a gold-framed portrait of an indistinct figure on the front. The book is also covered in and dripping blood while worms crawl out from between its closed pages. Some of the blood and worms have fallen onto the man's lap. To the man's other side, a torn-up, worm-riddled arm of another person hangs into the frame. Small flies buzz around the scene in various places. Hand-written words in red are overlaid the subway cart window and read "I Understood that what I was seeing Wasn't Acne".

Image 2: Digital art depicting Jonathan Sims and Gerard Keay. Jon is in the bottom left corner, from the shoulders up, in profile. He has brown skin and short, curly brown hair. He's wearing glasses and a green jacket over a white button down, holding a small box to his chest. His expression is slightly frazzles, and he's blushing. Floating around his shoulders, in neon mint green, are four exclamation marks and a small heart. Gerry takes up the entire right side of the image. Ve is wearing all black: a long overcoat over his shirt, pants, and knee-high boots, which have red laces. Veir hair is long and black, highlighted with red. Behind veir head is a splatter of neon mint green, which also highlights veir jacket and boots. Next to veir legs, in the same neon mint green are, on the left a floating eye and book, and on the right, a floating skull and lighter. The background is alternating pink and red, with yellow highlights. On the left side of the image, floating above Jon's head is black text with neon mint green highlights: Jonathan Sims and the Book-hunting Goth. There are eyes drawn on either side of the word goth. /End ID]

(ID by @caedogeist-rights) Image 2 [begin ID: a digital line-art drawing, with blue shading, depicts Jon and Tim.

IDs under the cut!

ID: A digital drawing of the same orange cat (The Admiral from the podcast The Magnus Archives) in three different poses. The picture is in portrait format. The top left depiction shows the Admiral, which is very fluffy with a large bushy tail, walking towards the viewer. Next to it, the cat is being lifted by a pair of hands so its belly and the strings of a harness are visible. It looks unimpressed at being lifted. The third is the Admiral lying down on his side, his feet pointed away from the camera. The purpose of the "harness" strapped to him now becomes apparent: It is a ring pillow and two golden wedding bands are attached to it. The Admiral seems to have lain down for a nap. The picture has vague peach coloured clouds as a background. /end ID

ID: A digital painting of Jon and Martin from the podcast the Magnus Archives. The picture is drawn in watercolour style, partially coloured and in landscape format. Martin is on the right side of the picture and looking away from the viewer. He is wearing a grey sweatshirt and has pale skin with freckles and short black hair. He is looking at his reflection in the mirror, but the reflection is actually Jon. Jon is depicted as a desi man with dark skin and a light beard. He has long, curly brown hair and silvery scars on his face and throat. He is wearing a bright yellow cardigan and a pink and purple flower crown on the top of his head. He is looking at Martin with a softly fond expression, brown eyes half closed and smiling. His head is tilted to the side and the wisterias of the flower crown are framing the left side of his face. The colours of Jon's cardigan, hair and flower crown all bleed out of the line art into the grey undefined background, making it appear as though Jon is an incorporeal mirage and making him glow in contrast to the grey surroundings. /End ID

[ID: a digitally painted image of Jon and Martin from the Magnus Archives. Martin, a fat Japanese-Polish man, wearing a grey hoodie, red jumper, jeans, and glasses, hands a coffee mug to Jon, one hand resting on the table, smiling. Jon, a Pakistani person with medium tone skin, wearing a button down and tie with the sleeves bunched up, accepts the cup. His mouth is open, as if he is saying something to Martin. Jon is seated at his desk in Archives, and behind them there is a bookshelf, a chest of drawers, and several filing cabinets, as well as an empty picture frame. /End ID]

ecstatic to be working with @janekfan again for this year’s @tmabigbang! please check out their fic Revenant!! it’s lovely hurt/comfort for jon once more, heart wrenchingly terrific

[ID: A digital painting of Jon and Martin from the podcast the Magnus Archives. The painting is fully coloured and in landscape format. Jon, a Jordinian man, is depicted with light brown skin and long, curly dark hair streaked with grey. He is thin, wearing a loose dark green t-shirt, dark purple pyjama bottoms with pink cartoon cats on it and white and pink striped socks. He is sitting on a bed with his rectangular glasses lying beside him on the mattress. His left knee is drawn up and he is leaning forwards into Martin's shoulder. His right hand rests on Martin's chest while he holds Martin's right hand with his own left. Martin is depicted as a thick set mixed hispanic man with darker skin than Jon. He has short curly chestnut coloured hair, dark brows and large round glasses. He is wearing a light blue jumper with white cartoon sheep on it and brown trousers. He is looking down at Jon in concern. Jon has his eyes closed and seems to be crying. The two characters are surrounded by a soft glow that is mirrored by the glass pane in the door in the background. There is indistinct writing on the glass. The background is kept mostly dark and simple in muted tones of brown and includes a shelf of labelled boxes. /End ID]

(un)seen

Here is my second piece for the @tmabigbang, for the fic “(un)seen” by @janekfan! it’s such a beautiful fic with an incredible writing style and interesting concepts to the role Jon plays as archivist, and the beholding, and focuses on jon’s and daisy’s friendship and i’m just absolutely soft for it, and so happy to have made art for it! (i might even make more art)

[ID: a digital painting of Alice “Daisy” Tonner, Basira Hussain and Jonathan Sims. Jon is laying on the ground, curled up in a fetal position with his back to the viewer. He’s a brown man with long, brown greying hair and pockmarked skin. He’s wearing a white jumper and washed out jeans, his feet are bare. Basira is kneeling on her right knee next to Jon’s head, one of her hands feeling the back of his head, her expression concentrated and worried. Her other hand is resting on her left leg. She’s depicted as brown woman wearing a yellow hijab black puffy jacket and black shirt, tan pants and black boots. Daisy is standing partially in the shadows behind the two, hugging herself and looking down at Jon and Basira with concern. She is a short, thin white woman littered with scars and freckles. She has stringy blonde hair with streaks of white down to her chin and is wearing a grey hoodie, black shorts and white sneakers. On the wall beside them hangs a painting of a man in a pinstripe suit in an ornate frame, the face is not visible but a sign below the painting reads Jonah Magnus. A golden plaque with an arrow pointing to the hallway branching off behind the three hangs on the same wall as the painting, close to Daisy’s head. END ID]

My two illustrations for @cuddlytogas‘ fic “Missing Presumed Dead” for @tmabigbang 

Consider these a sneak peak to some very spooky encounters, so what are you waiting for and go start reading it!

Image Descriptions under the cut

Image One

[ID: A digital painting of the corridor leading into the archives of the Magnus Institute from the podcast The Magnus Archives. The painting is fully coloured and in portrait format. The three-point-perspective shows the corridor tapering off into darkness, a row of old-fashioned lamps hangs from the ceiling, all of them are turned off. There are doors visible to either side of the corridor. They are labelled "Head Archivist Jonathan Sims" (left) and "Break Room”(right) respectively. A much better illuminated door is half-closed in the foreground. Its window reads "VES" (presumably cut off from "Archives"). A brown-skinned hand (meant to be Jon's) with a white sleeve is gripping the door knob, pulling it closed. The vague black shape of a tall, broad shouldered figure is barely visible in the depths of the archive's corridor. It is indistinct and can only be identified so much as to be considered human. The painting is kept in muted tones of green-grey, except for the Archives door and Jon's arm. It is set on a white background with fraying edges, giving the impression of an unclean polaroid picture. The artist's signature is visible on the white frame at the bottom right. It reads "RMS 2021". /End ID]

Image Two

[begin ID: a digital, monochromatic drawing, depicting the shadowy figure of Martin's ghost knocking on the door from inside Document Storage. Martin is just a silhouette with round, white circles for eyes. He's looming in the window of the door, labeled in white lettering, Document Storage. The sound of the  knocking is emanating from the door in large circular ripples. White fog billows out from underneath the door. Text overlays the bottom of the door: Knock, knock. end ID]

[yellowvixen]

My second piece for the @tmabigbang, this time for the fic By Candlelight by @splitting-infinities!! I’ve been so looking forward to finally showing this piece off, I’m super proud of it. If you like the movie Stardust (and who doesn’t) you’ll love this fic!! Go check out all the other art and fic too!

(Thank you @franzis-frantic-thoughts again for the ID!)

[ID: The first image is a semi-realistic digital painting of Jon from the podcast The Magnus Archives. The painting is fully coloured and in portrait format. It features Jon, a fallen star who is depicted as a brown skinned man, riding a huge peacock away from the viewer. The scene is set in a meadow of blooming violets at dawn. Gently rolling hills are visible in the background where the sun is rising into a peach coloured, lightly cloudy sky. Two large trees frame the picture. Jon has dark skin, long, flowing brown hair and a goatee. He is wearing light blue robes that hang down to his feet and are tied at his waist with a dark blue belt made of stars. He is looking over his right shoulder back at the viewer with a pensive expression. The peacock is looking back too. It is fully rendered with detailed head and tail feathers. Its tail fills the bottom left quarter of the painting and trails from view. The bird’s body is dark blue, dappled with lighter spots. Its wings are brown and its tail turquoise with the typical large orange eye-pattern. The artist’s signature is featured on the right hand side about mid-level of the painting. It reads “Yellow Vixen”. 

The second image is a crop of the first, showing a close up of Jon and the peacock’s head.

The third image is another crop of the first, showing a close up of the top part of the peacock’s tail. /End ID]

A little concept art of moth Jon for @monstermasc 's amazing fanfiction, 'From the Cacoon' as part of @tmabigbang. It's the first of 3 artworks I did.

(1) (2) (3)

[ID: 2 semi-realistic digital painting of Jon from the podcast The Magnus Archives standing in a dark forest. The pictures are fully coloured and in portrait format. Jon is depicted as a British Pakistani moth-man hybrid. He has two large wings and four arms. Jon is depicted as a dark skinned British Pakistani person with long, flowing brown hair, short goatee and mustache. Jon is wearing a white shirt with a cartoon duck on it beneath a turquoise cardigan with puffy sleeves and a leaf pattern, as well as a long dark green skirt but no shoes. The artist has depicted some of Jon's canonical scars, such as the cut to his throat and worm scars on his face. Jon is not human in this. He has black eyes with glowing green irises and cross-shaped pupils, pointy ears and four arms, two of which are hidden beneath his cardigan. He also has large, dusty brown moth wings with a total of four glowing yellow eyes near the joints. Jon is holding one of his left arms out to the side and is looking in that direction too. 1st image has a background that is kept in various shades of dark blue and shows a nighttime forest. The Artist's signature in bright green is written across the bottom left quarter of the picture and reads "Quillma". /End ID]

another art for @tmabigbang​!

for the amazing fanfic “Missing, Presumed Dead “ by @cuddlytogas​​. i can’t recommend it enough and you can find it here 

[ID: A digital painting of Jon and Martin from the Podcast the Magnus Archives. The picture is square in shape and rendered in greyscale. Jon sits at his desk in his office, a paper bin is overflowing beneath it. He is shown as a young, thin man with short dark hair, rectangular glasses and business smart clothes. He is asleep with his head resting on his right hand which is propped up on the elbow. There are notes and books on his table, a PC screen and two mugs. One reads "Best Boss" and is steaming, the other has a post-it note reading "Remember 00113005" on it. Martin is standing to his left, looking at him. Martin is surrounded by wafts of fog and is drawn semi-translucent. He is thick set, has curly hair / an afro and is wearing a jumper and long trousers. To either side of the two figures, there are stacks of boxes and files and behind Jon, there is a notice board on the wall. It features multiple overlapping papers, a picture of Martin and a map. One of the papers reads "Do you know about the Archive's Ghost?" in all caps. Another reads "Curriculum Vitae Martin K. Blackwood" with the line "Education" beneath, followed by some indistinct bullet points. There is an indistinct table and some papers are connected by a piece of string as well. /End ID]
