I entered two paintings into the Ori discord's October art contest (the theme was "enemies"); I had a great time with them and honestly they helped me continue to solidify my watercolor process (each one featured a slightly different way of painting)

The first is inkwash, watercolor, and colored pencil (roughly 9x12")

The second is watercolor, colored pencil, and digital color edits (roughly 6x20")

The second painting--the boss rush one--ended up being one part 'enemies' and one part tribute to the games as a whole and the sense of determination throughout. I'm not exaggerating when I say the Ori games got me through some weird times in life. They're a comforting sense of constancy.

UPDATE -- 03/15/24

To the Nucleus, whatever the cost.

I've been putting the science connections/easter eggs in the creator comments on webtoon canvas--but for those reading on the website, I figured I'd start mentioning them here as well!

I'll probably reblog with all the science notes every few updates, to give people time to try and guess what things are based on.

Notes under the cut!
