WHOS the yellowblood w the blacked out eyes in yr header so i can go thru their tag

That would be Bronte Voltej !

Bronte Vultej (she/they/ze) was a troll with renound psionics and a rebellious nature, but not enough gut to act on it. She stayed in a lowblood neighborhood, and helped out with local shops. Life was very good until a turf battle occurred in the town between loyalists and rebels. It was a very violent experience, and Bronte was caught in the crossfire. With all the chaos and distress, plus the violence she would inevitably get caught up in, their psionics went off with a bang, in a very literal sense. Zer psionics caught onto the nearby transformer, and executed a chain reaction to every transformer connected to the telephone lines.

Zey wake up disoriented, short circuiting, and with only the barest form of psionics keeping them alive despite what is, essentially void rot minus the rot. On top of this, she loses all of the memories of their former life. Bronte Vultej eats batteries to feed the psionics in her body, and has physical subconscious jerks + a stutter due to the physical trauma.

#bronte vultej #refs ; dutiful diagrams #fantroll #homestuck oc #hs oc #my art #my oc #oc ref #oc reference #homestuck fantroll #i dont draw this character a lot #she was made for a roleplay and ultimately the rp died #and theyre not a Session troll so i havent thought ab them too actively #but i was delighted to have someone ask ab one of my header trolls!!#i just like when people ask ab my trolls in general hehe

#spy x family #sxf #yor forger #thorn princess #tumblr polls #okay in case you didn't know: Yor has references to sleeping beauty #first ref is her code name. Thorn ironically being what put the princess to sleep while it's what Yor uses to put others “to sleep”#Technically her weapons aren't thorns but they could seen as one with her being “the rose” and her stilettos the “thorns” she uses 2defend #herself. Also the rose being her signature flower shown both in her headwear her pin and her assassin clothing #The less obvious fact is her maiden surname #Briar is the name in Little Briar Rose. The ENG title translation in the german version of this tale #Another fun fact considering Ostania is based on Germany so obviously none of these were coincidences #At first I thought the rose could be one of the emblems of the organization as a whole or in general #but after seeing the shopkeeper the only resemblance I could find between his design and Yor's is that both wear those daggers accessories #Yor wearing them in plain sight as earrings while the shopkeeper has them hanging from the ends where he ties his apron behind his neck #so maybe those are the emblems much like that symbol with an eye is to WISE #Of course given how the organisation is called Garden I suppose one of the main themes are plants/flowers/nature #Which has me wondering if other characters may have tale inspo as well or Yor is one the few/only who has references to a tale #it could be something that appears frequently perhaps? Just like many spies have code names related to the different times of day 🤔#anyway this is just a chance to bring the topic and see if others are cooking theories. Feel free to shout your speculations here #sxf manga spoilers #just in case #god now I want to make a sona just to shove on them all my interest about flowers and tales #MY BAD the shopkeeper has the stilettos (?) hanging at the ends of the strings to keep his hat in place ☠️

It you liked my Napoleonic au, here is some Fernando from it :)

Under the cut: process

him face:

(I absolutely had to draw his Theee Musketeers look, that's honestly why I did a Ferrari alt)

I mentioned earlier how every time I opened the drawing, I'd just completely change it. Here's what I meant:

The Renault suit really lends itself to the Hussar uniform! Also the Ferrari one is kinda stunted a bit comparatively bcs I accidently drew over the Renault one so I had to recover the backlog and was afraid to touch it any further LOL

#do you ever think about how Fernando's F1 career has lasted longer than the entirety of the Napoleonic era?#because now I do.#I was thinking about how team changes would work/fit in and then realized Nando's career is longer than that whole era 💀#ah unfortunately no history ramble this time(the hussar stuff was my thesis LMAO)#but yeah i have been thinking about how his career would align with the different kingdoms #ex. 2007 mclaren would just be him being a double agent since the uk and france are enemies atp #every time i draw Napoleonic stuff i always listen to: 1812 Overture and Viva La Vida. every time. without fail.#lmao on the third/final revision you can see how much taking a ref pic of myself for the pose helped me #its generally very difficult for me to use random pics as reference #ig irs bcs its not *exactly* what i want so i prefer to make my own :)#this is kinda based off how i kept randomly standing bcs my back hurt but instead here it is slay #im especially glad tho that i went back to redo his face/hair bcs the earlier draft isnt even really in my art style so #f1 #formula 1 #formula one #fernando alonso #fa14 #catie.art.#f1 fanart #formula 1 fanart #f1 art #formula 1 art #i accidentally posted this even tho i meant to queue it so i had to redo all of this UGH #hussar au

In Game Model Heights

Disclaimer: Nothing shared here is being asserted as canon. They are models extracted from the game and do not always reflect how they are actually scaled in game.

Disclaimer aside, my personal stance as I've established before is that I don't rely on game models because they're unreliable and aren't always reflected in cut scene models. For example, male vashoth/qunari Inquisitors are shown as a head shorter than The Iron Bull but their extracted models are the same heights.

Regardless, I do like to take a peek and see what they have for no other reason then fun. It is cool to see that Morrigan and Alistair match their figure heights. The Iron Bull and Varric's game model heights don't, additionally Bull's officially stated height in WoT doesn't match his game model either.

Which as a note, after measuring Bull like a tailor, his gaming head model comes out to be 7'7 / 2.31m sans horns, bit 8'4 / 2.54m with the horns. He's a tall lad. But I digress.

I've separated the heights between NPCs and Inquisitors. I will periodically update this as I extract more models.

NPCs

Alistair: 6' / 1.84m

Blackwall: 6' / 1.83m

Cassandra: 5'9 / 1.77m

Cole: 5'11 / 1.82

Cullen: 5'11 / 1.82m

Dorian: 6' / 1.83m

The Iron Bull: 6'9 / 2.04m

Josephine: 5'9 / 1.77m

Leliana: 5'10 / 1.78

Morrigan: 5'8 / 1.73m (sans heel) 5'10 / 1.78m (with heels)

Sera: 5'10 / 1.78m

Solas: 5'10 / 1.79m

Varric: 5' / 1.53m

Vivienne: 5'8 / 1.73m (sans heel) 5'10 / 1.78m (with heels)

Inquisitor

Male:

Dwarf: 5' / 1.53m

Elf: 5'10 / 1.80m

Human: 5'11 / 1.82m

Vashoth: 6'9 / 2.04m

Female:

Dwarf: 4'8 / 1.43m

Elf: 5'7 / 1.71m

Human: 5'9 / 1.76m

Vashoth: 6'7 / 2.01m

[Image ID: Four images of grey character models on a dark grey, gridded background. Each model has a dotted measurement line with height displayed in meters. End ID.]

Note: All the Inquisitors are in the Vivienne bathing suit from Trespasser because I did NOT want to export the arms, legs, torso, and heads for every Inquisitor over and over. They're the same height regardless I checked with a couple before I remembered the potential onesie model that wasn't nudity lol

#dragon age #dragon age inquisition #dai #model heights #ref #None of these are canon since we know they manipulate heights in game. Both cinematically and in the engine in general #It is cool to see the difference #Cassandra and Sera lost their hair for whatever reason. Blender just refused to show them #Game reference

Finally finished a reference pic for one of my favorite ocs, Xadian!!!! I mostly left this peice to flats and some important textures (like the fading speckle effect) but I think it turned out wonderfully!

His story is long and kinda complicated to answer all in one post but I’d gladly answer questions if asked about him but here are some basic facts and tidbits to go off of!

Currently he shares a body with one of my other ocs, Jasiker Willowspeak, but pictured here is his true form when their souls arent sharing a body, its also the form that jasiker sees anytime he looks in a mirror or in phantom form lingering around when Xadian isnt in control of the body. He’s very annoying like that.

He is canonically in love with jasiker, albiet in a very toxic and manipulative way. He’s terrible and i love him for it.

In regards to dnd mechanically speaking, he’s a frankenstein of homebrew imagination but can be chalked up to a shadow sorcerer for basic class

#ocs #my ocs #dnd ocs #oc ref sheet #oc reference #xadian #xadian reference #i love him dearly #he’s also on my f/o list!#i will say though this reference is kinda just a general flat color and physical form ref #it doesnt reflect his personality very well #and his expression is kind of blank #his face doesnt translate well dead on like this #but i hope to draw more of him being the chaos gremlin he is!!#he is very cute to me #and yes he does have pawpads on human hands #they’re more resistant towards heat than normal palms so he can handle hotter hell-climates #plus they’re just kinda cute #his skin always looks like its dusted with soot but thats just his skin pattern #his fur is also very coarse and rough cause mans doesnt bathe #but how are you gonna bathe in hell i mean-#he probably would if given the opportunity #i have MANY thoughts about him and his relationship with jasiker

yall are being spared from me revamping my oc designs again bc i wanted to make marlow more obviously a servine hybrid but idk how i can do that without making his design more cluttered or just annoying to draw djfjfj

#im just gonna opt for redrawing his ref bc ive tweaked the exact way i draw brionne in general #and the pic i use as his ref is just old #though i miiiiight change his ribbon to be the same color as valeries? its green to reference the servine #but if he and val have the exact same accessory then oooo the visual storytelling #echoed voice #i am Considering adding the neck thing bc it looks kinda regal?#but it looks annoying to draw alongside the dress and his performing style is more cute than regal

Hello! I just want to say I adore your Sandman art,it's so pretty!!I have a question do you have any tips on drawing male heads or male anatomy?

Why thank you!

Oh gosh, I feel like I'm terrible at giving tips or anything since I don't know where to start or what's... kinda fundamental uuhhhh. It's usually said that masculine features are more angular, bone and muscle structure are more prominent. Feminine features are rounder and softer. But it has so much variety depending on stuff like race or age or body type or just.... because people are different.

I always suggest doing life/figure drawing if possible. The point is to train your eye, observe the forms and shapes and put on paper what you see. The more you do it the more you start to see patterns and when you have just a couple of minutes to draw the pose you figure out the key shapes. I hope that makes sense. There are some websites for practicing figure drawing, like Line of Action and Quickposes and I guess there are pinterest boards dedicated to these sort of photos as well. And when you see a photo with a nice face or a nice body, save it and draw it.

#was this useful at all??? I don't know #I've been drawing for forever and I draw dudes a lot and I just.........draw them?? idk I'm so bad at this #I've learned from so many very specific tutorials floating around the internet over the years and it's kinda hard to pinpoint what would...#...be a good tip to share.#doing image search on buzzcuts gives good results on young adult head shapes :D #hair cut results in general too #or image searching mens underwear for body reference #I wish I could have HQ screenshots of that clip of Tom Sturridge training as refs so I could draw those muscles

Updated Einin’s reference <33 god she really needed it

I’ve been really updating/fixing up character references for Duck Duck Goose lately. As well as making refs/designs for new characters……. I think you guys will like them ;)

#also she just needed a redo in general because like #her old ref was technically in a different art style than everyone else’s refs #but that was because I was still figuring out her design so. yeah.#really just got rid of the sunglasses cause those were hard to draw for some reason #also she didn’t really need them per se #I think it was just an extra accessory she didn’t need that much ??#she’s keeping the combat boots though despite those being a NIGHTMARE to draw #fun fact I HATE drawing shoes #worst things to draw for me #also Ducky now actually has a duck on the tip :)#I know I’ve added that in already in other works but it’s in the official reference now :)#Einin #Duck Duck Goose #Ocs #original characters #original stories #Character refs #The Kiwi Draws
