New theme alert!
I’ve been wanting to revamp my blog for a while - so I did! It should be MUCH more streamlined now, so for anyone who wants to know what other fandoms I dabble in, we got a sexy Tag Index ~ As well as just some quality of life links
And for any *cough ALL* you PTUTU fans, there's also an AU index now
Thnx love yall ^^
The second half of a gift comm for @turianmailman || View Full Image
Sodden and soaked in small deaths
posting online everyday is unsustainable i hope all you fellow internet artists recover from the bullsh*t “”expected”” rate of pumping out ””content”” for the algorithm (what the hell are we… robots???) and reclaim the pace (and peace!!!) you were actually built to keep
The divine banquet of menses || full version
for @turianmailman - their Tav, Blaethe, and Astarion

this quote from hbomberguy’s plagiarism video really resonated with me:
“creative people have trouble recognising their skills as skills, because eventually they feel like second nature. […] this stuff really is valuable. if it wasn’t, people wouldn’t be stealing it. creativity doesn’t feel special or unique until you realise people have to plagiarise it”
your craft is and always will be valuable, please never let anyone make you doubt that
*firmly grabbing all beginner artists by the shoulders* you have to embrace inconsistency. inconsistency is good because it means you are learning. if you focus too hard on making all your art look the same you are really just holding yourself back and forcing yourself to make the same mistakes rather than develop and grow. style and consistency can come later on when your grasp on the fundamentals is stronger. now take this juice box and get out there and make some art.
Noooo way. No fucking way. On god i just got into balder's Gate (i got into astarion actually) and i thought, i promise you i did, "uh, this feels like the kind of man turianmailman would draw so so so good. He has so much trauma, he is clever, he is patético in that perfect despertate way. Man he would look incredible with their style. Actually I havent checked on them for a while, I miss their Fakir... I'm going to check them out" and then i came here!!! And youre drawing the man!!! And he looks so good ando so desperate and traumatised!! Good good... Also your TAV???? In my mouth goes. Incredible the things you do with expressions. I'm well feed today.
IM RATTLING THE BARS OF MY CAGE YO this made my DAY you have no idea i read this ask out loud to my co worker I was so happy that a Flavor of Sad Man made you think of my art 😭😭😭 thank you so much!!!
As a treat have some vamps
Baldur Gate’s favorite unwashed and depraved politician
when ur in love with a she/they warlock orphan who you meant to seduce but they nerfed you with the ‘Tism rizz
Let it be known that today at work I jump scared myself with an Astarion I drew weeks ago and who was promptly hiding behind a shield of cardboard
Debut doodles of my Tav; Theyre name is Blaethe!
Theyre a warlock packed with the Old God and in a situationship w/Astarion
Can you post about your tav/dark urge from bg3? Share any other game opinions you may have please
Of course! Here comes Blaethe (she/they) (32)- an Old One warlock with the street urchin background
Tbh I headcannoned them as a Dark Urge character but it’s recommended you do a Durge run post game so I’m going Tav run first
Regardless, her left eye is fake (hi Wyll eyeball bestie!!!) her backstory parallels Astarions with her having a near death experience and changed by a supernatural power (in this case what is, essentially, a space ghost)
They’re charisma is VERY high, like 18 or smthn - RP wise this is account of her street smarts, they’re very good at I guess personal politics? Knowing what to say and when to get desired results (usually to diffuse/assist/protect/advance.) That said, Blaethe is autistic! So again sharing similarities w/Astarion with masking vs unmasking
They’re major flaws are living in extremes (so like, show no emotion or lose complete control and lash out) and RAMPANT theft (mostly from corpses)
As for the Astarion aspect of her life, to quote a bestie, they “approach each other like scared chihuahuas” - Blaethe can’t fathom someone being attracted to them (lots of Dysmorphia from years of injuries) but is DEEPLY starved for an intimate/genuine relationship - Astarion back peddles at these attempts but often feels abandoned when she doesn’t flirt back (the tism is STRONK.) His favorite thing to do is tease them with loud and flamboyant acts of PDA :p
And here are some little doodles
