#wynter art

[porcelainseashore]

I'm extremely thrilled—*giggling and kicking my feet like a total fan girl* 🤭—to share this gorgeous art by @bqpsy of the very lovely Prince Lettow and my OC Wynter. She handled them so well, and it goes without saying that she's unbelievably talented. Check her out if you can!

I always imagined Wynter to have an air of reluctance even in her most intimate moments with Lettow. Sure, she gives off those "La Femme Nikita" vibes and knows she's good at what she does, but she's terribly insecure and has doubts as to whether Lettow can truly accept her for what she is. Unfortunately, she isn't the type to communicate openly, so I always wonder how her relationship with Lettow would pan out deep in the Gehenna War in Cairo.

One of things I really enjoyed about Night Road is its premise for the Hecata starting character. It lends enough mystery and autonomy to truly make it your own. As a Della Passaglia, you operate on the fringes of the main Giovanni branch, belonging to The Family, yet not quite.

I loved leaning into the gothic family with plenty of skeletons and secrets angle when creating a backstory for Wynter. Here she is, as I imagine, in one of the rooms of her old family home, still tied and bound to the past, unable to escape it. Perhaps it is time to visit the place that haunts her dreams?

Thank you @ma-ar for working on this for me. Your art is simply gorgeous and it's been wonderful getting to know it over the past year!

Dropping this track I sent over for Wynter's vibe:

...Can you tell I really like Invader Zim and Hollow Knight?

Anyways uh- REFERENCES FOR ALL OF MY Z-O-M-B-I-E-S MONSTER HEADCANNONS WOOOOOOO FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!! These are all rlly self indulgent tbh, especially all the alien headcannons, but in mY DEFENSE! I can do whatever the fuck I want lmfao. Which means pointless patches of darker skin in very specific places on the zombies, references to raccoon Wyatt and alien lore that you have to do olympic level mental gymnastics to fit into the plot of the movies WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

The ref sheet for the Armistian's true form is kinda old(and I've actually posted it on here before lmao), but I haven't actually changed anything about their designs besides like, a couple minor alterations to the colors, and I genuinely think the art holds up to my current standards, so I decided to just reuse those refs instead of redrawing them entirely. Also for the record I have a LOT more headcannons about the aliens, the werewolves and some rewrites to zombie lore to make zombieism more akin to a chronic illness then a race thing, I just don't feel like putting them in these ref sheets. Because that would take a lot more effort then I am willing to put in rn. Feel free to send me asks abt them tho!!! I love infodumping abt my Z-O-M-B-I-E-S headcannons and rewrites :D

My least favorite parts of drawing refs and stuff are one; I have to draw the characters in their underwear half the time so I fully understand where different markings and shit are supposed to go, which makes me feel weeeeird, and two; I never have the energy to give the characters unique poses and shit cuz I have to draw and write so much shit that they all end up just fuckin. Staring blankly at the camera. It makes me uncomfyyyyyy-

Also the "very strong bones" bit on Addison & Bucky's refs is a TFB reference. Because I am insane.

Ignore the fact that I'm literally posting this in the middle of the night I had a really hard time finishing Bucky's ref okay-

I'm literally awestruck by this beautiful piece that I commissioned @arc-tu-rus to create 🥹 She's such a lovely, sweet-hearted and talented artist who really outdid herself here. I cannot thank her enough for putting her all into this artwork 🙏 Her commissions are open, so do check it out if you're interested!

Here, Lettow and my Hecata OC, Wynter, share a tender moment in the forests of modern day Poland, maybe even somewhere the former Prince of Tucson was familiar with. This was their private fairytale wedding they wanted to indulge in, knowing that their future lies in uncertainty. Their nights may be numbered, especially with the Gehenna War looming ahead, but at least they had this night together.

@kmpshitposter I've adored your art from afar for ages and it's a dream come true to see Wynter's portrait in your style. You handled her so well, thank you! The mystery of this is: who is she receiving Communion from?

Here's a silly little script that came to mind:

"Throw on something nice, Gretch. We're heading out. Girls' night. No boy toys allowed." "Pfft. If Andrei knew I was hanging with the Cam, he'd Vicissitude me in ten different ways." "Don't tell me you don't enjoy the sound of that." *smirk, wink* "Uh-huh, but not before he calls me Mami first." *grin* "What about bird boy? Don't suppose daddy Prince knows you're hanging out with your Sabbat bestie way past your bedtime?" *rolls eyes* "Hmph, it's ex-Prince. And what he doesn't know won't hurt him." *grabs GG's hand* "Come on, let's hit the road before sunrise." "Wait! Can Magenta come along?"

A Sabbat befriending a member of the Camarilla? You best believe it!

This is my half of the art/writing trade w the super lovely and incredibly talented @porcelainseashore; starring: her femme fatale Hecata courier - Wynter della Passaglia along with my equally sadistic Tremere Antitribu - Gretchen Grim!
