Sun Wukong's assorted lingpai (mandate tokens)

[ID: 1) An illustration of the two sides of a mostly rectangular lingpai made of wood. One side reads "令" and the other reads "弼马温", both written in seal script. The bottom of the lingpai is adorned by horses facing outwards, clouds by their feet.

2) An illustration of the two sides of a stone lingpai shaped mostly like a rectangle, but flared at the top and bottom. One side reads "令" and the other reads "美猴王", both written in seal script. The top of the lingpai is adorned with a dragon-pearl surrounded by flames and clouds. The bottom is adorned with mountains, the sea, and coral. The borders of both the top and bottom are decorated with clouds and flowers. The top is swirled in a way that resembles a lingzhi or a ruyi.

3) An illustration of the two sides of a red jade lingpai, shaped mostly like a rectangle but with a curved top. One side reads "令" and the other reads "齐天大圣", both written in seal script. The top of the lingpai is adorned by a ruyi with a flower and mountain at its center. Below the ruyi is a lotus flower, which sits on top of the forehead of a Yazi carving. Clouds extend out from either side of Yazi and below him are flowers. The two sides of the lingpai have the carvings of cloud pillars wrapped in a stylized waterfall. At the bottom are clouds which could also be the foam from the waterfall. Lotuses float atop this foam/these clouds. At the center of the bottom is a mountain with a ruyi at its foot. This ruyi also has a flower within it.

4) The lineart for the three lingpai, with accompanying commentary. The one labeled "BiMaWen" reads "carved and burned wood," "simple, only horses and clouds," and "ornamental, basically no power." The one labeled "Beautiful Monkey King" reads "carved from a chunk of Sun Wukong's stone egg," "customized from Ao family royal lingpai template," and "mostly sea, cloud, and dragon pearl imagery." The one labeled "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" reads "carved from red jade," "fully custom, in style of an emperor's lingpai but HuaGuo," and "flowers, waterfalls, mountains, ruyi, Yazi, and clouds imagery." At the side are simple doodles of the three lingpai. The first is light brown with a yellow cord, captioned "simple cord, no tassel." The second is grey with a red cord and tassel, captioned "silk cord and tassel." The third is red with a red cord and tassel, captioned "braided cord," "jade and gold accented." End ID]

#my art #journey to the west #jttw #xiyouji #visual development #prop design #in case youre wondering about the note on the Beautiful Monkey King lingpai-#yes he did harass Ao Guang for that #as soon as he came back from being BiMaWen he wanted a proper lingpai of his own #so he marched down to Ao Guang's palace with a stone in hand and demanded he get it properly carved #the Great Sage lingpai was carved by the artists of the Heavenly Palace and presented to him when his title was recognized #you may have seen a rough draft of that lingpai on swk's belt in the Seven Sages lineup 👉👈#much simpler though of course gdhfsjkkdskl #at the time i was thinking of it as being carved from red wood #but nah now it's a solid chunk of jade you could knock someone out with it #also- 如意 means 'by one wants'- same as the ruyi in ruyijinkubang 'as-you-wish golden staff'#but ruyi here refers to the clustered swirls (google image it) bc its a common auspicious piece of imagery #Yazi is one of the famed Sons of the Dragon God #he's a violent and skilled fighter so he's usually used to adorn weaponry and armor #but i think swk would get a kick out of his lingpai having Yazi on it too
