hi friends
as we boycott in support of palestine, here is a little reminder of the companies that specifically supported israel in their crimes against palestine (taken from the al jazeera website)
do as much as you are able to during the boycott, but if you need essentials or need to go to work to support yourself, that is okay! anything helps and boycotting these companies specifically is great because of their direct role in the violence against people in gaza
free palestine
explanations and details about the various companies and their associations here, on the bds site

Jonesy commissioned some lil rat guys from me

Your Jaheira and Astarion art is so big brain. 10/10 I love it
yes...yes encourage me more....
ive made a bg3 sideblog for those who dont know! trying to be less discerning with what i post of there. things like sketches and my petty jaheira x astarion agenda. unless im stopped im calling it jahstarion btw but who here is gonna stop me? HM???? another jahstarion fan!!?!! speak now!
Anonymous asked:
here’s a question :3 uh do you have like any favourite anatomy or reference books/texts. or any tips for doing study’s??
sorry if this is like annoying or weird idk i’ve just been a little obsessed with your art lately. the way you capture shape and movement is so fantastic. you have such a talent for capturing characters personality through visual quirks too. idk like the way you draw ellie tlou is so specific. it’s not exactly on model but it’s kind of better lol. i can instantly tell most of what you need to know about her. same with your recent astarions like idk you’ve just managed to capture a real physicality about him that i think can be hard. idk i’m maybe biased but i think without any exposure to the game you could probably guess how he moves and sounds from your art.
idk uh sorry if this is worded weird i feel like i always do that LOL okay though anyways i adore your art it’s just so distinct. i’d eat it if i could. i’d honestly do a lot to capture even a fraction of the magic you’re creating. okay hope this message finds you well BYE
no need to feel self conscious about doing me a kindness in the form of gratifying to read, thoughtful observations of my fanart!!!!
thank you. very late response because i wanted to respond with some equally thoughtful advice and also let my ego calm down a bit, but..
im 'lazy' and like to keep drawing for fun as easy as possible. So i dont have any reference books hm... You obviously look at art and are able to relay to yourself and others what you saw and felt. thats the skill you should always indulge. looking at all kinds of things youre drawn to and observing why. best ref! (thanks again btw, best feeling being on the receiving end of that. to be... astarion voice: Seen in the Eyes of Another)
I have studied (and continue to do so when i get the chance) figure drawing at my community college, which was a big leap. i ended up focusing a lot on the relationship between the ribcage/pelvis/flow of the spine at that time. still my favorite part of drawing lol. During my most recent artblock i started copying muscle anatomy pages from a Morpho book as a way to keep drawing without a proper fixation. which is great because i also love the weight of flesh :^D
if you'd like my 'woo-woo advice' it's to get lost in the process and less invested in the results. and never be embarrassed. it'll keep you drawing (behind every piece of successful fanart is a mountain of scrap drawings of Fictional Guy #2378 facing 3/4 left.) and its meditative!! cathartic? personally i like to have a song/playlist to keep up the emotion im trying to work out going throughout my drawing session. helps me tell if the expression im drawing feels 'right'
and on the topic of drawing off model--!! Anytime im onto a new character i do spend a few sessions tracing their proportions/copying their models. after i figure out more or less what about their original design makes that Character i like to lose the training wheels. artistic interpretation is more interesting for me to look at and create. and i think it frees you up to better convey a feeling. the more you draw something the more you settle into 'what works' but i never set out to draw the same way twice! usually never anyway
thank you again for taking time to observe my drawings, and relaying back what you saw and felt. it honestly makes my day(s) to the point i almost feel guilty about it
happy astarion, hotfix10 kissing cope, and a tav
so i'm writing this astarion fanfic, and i realized it's only fair to let you know that i wrote a whole scene about astarion being released from the year in a the tomb because your art inspired me so much. like, down to dal being the one who gets saddled with taking care of him. thank you so much, i love your style and the story those few pics told spoke volumes
I just finished reading the sample on your blog and its SOOOOO GOOOOOOODDDD thank you for letting me know!!!! for posting it to share!!!!
I love fanfiction i wish i had the fortitude to write out so many things in my free time, but my mode is to push lines around while playing it out in my head instead. and hoping it comes through to someone..anyone. or no one thats fine too heheh
anyway the great joy of posting for me is seeing people respond to it. and when my fanart inspires really great fanfiction that makes me want to ...draw more fanart it feels like cheating the system!!!!
thought about astarion and jaheira the other day and now i canNOT STOP
just a little blood!
anyway Punished Astarions
i like to think astarion comes out of the 1-year-tomb a feral starved ghoul. and dal gets stuck with making him co-inhabitable cuz shes the doc
i havent reeallly drawn for fun in one thousand years and in that time forgot what the Human Skull is. drawing through the pain for tenderoni though :,^ ]
pretty occultist
