The Shimmer Shields - Uniform design

#digital art #illustration #artists on tumblr #art #dungeons and dragons #dnd #ttrpg #homebrew #concept art #original characters #ocs #my ocs #Fen tag #Alowin tag #Setting: Heim #I was gonna do this rendered all pretty and stuff #but i've already spent too much time fiddling with this so flats will have to do #i really wanted to get the Shields uniform down on paper #as well as two of my silly little guys #Fen is wearing the standard officer uniform that people would commonly see on the streets of Novo-Mellior #Alowin is wearing the private hire uniform since he gets assigned to Tethry after a failed attempt on his life #The private hire uniform comes with a cape meant to cover the sword at their hip during formal events. #also anyone who ends up on private hire is ribbed pretty heavily by the rest of the soldiers since #that often means they get assigned either to some arrogant noble or an important caster (like an archmage) #and with the way that Shields and casters don't get along very well you'll get bullied for babysitting one. #The Shields value their uniforms and gear very highly since to a lot of them it's the only thing of significance that they own. #Their bracers and shields (not pictured cause idk what i want to do for them yet) are tiled with flail snail shell #which allows them to both block and reflect any spells cast at them back on the caster #it's also where the name of their order comes from cause shiny #I had big plans for this piece but at the end of the day it's just a design sheet

My 10-year-old computer died, my new one finally arrived, and you'd best believe the first thing I did is install TS2. I still need to get my old files off my old hard drive but I'm finally biting the bullet and installing the Ultimate Collection rather than trying to reinstall from disks on Windows 11 and ... I wanted to weep lmao. Everything loads so FAST it almost scares me. I thought I was used to the game loading fast when I took out all my CC, but that's NOTHING compared to this. Fully optimised TS2 on a modern computer is frightening

It's also a good opportunity to start my DL folder from scratch with a better organisational system and being stricter about what I know I will/won't use. Challenging myself to CC-free builds has pushed me even further into a MM-game and now I'm embracing it. Like, I'm flirting with the idea of not having reflective pond water? Just changing the colour, but keeping the slab-o-blue vibe? Who am I? Beach lots would look ugly as hell but maybe I can make it work.

Anyway, a very exciting new development in my Sims career :)

#the new computer was Not Cheap and I am Very Poor so if you like my CC or gameplay and would like to donate or something #I have a ko-fi .com / landeg #also I might play around with that 3rd party launcher so maybe the no-pond-water thing might not stick #since I was always curious about how it fixed the need to have pool tiles on lots/reflection issues #who knows what I'll do with this whole new world!! #gosh. I'm so glad people still love this game so much. makes me teary-eyed

Despite everything, it's still you.

#me #ive cut back on lifting a lot due to injuries and struggles with my joints and instead picked up lane swimming in march #i had never used a public pool in my life and never swam with intent before #it was new and kind of terrifying but i needed to move my body again in a way that didnt cause pain #the first few times were pretty rough- i couldnt swim well or hold my breath and struggled with the repetitive motion and breathing #one day beams of sunlight shone through the airy space and large windows and cast shining watery reflections on the pool's bottom #i had been learning water caustics for 3d art and i loved to watch them #its gotten a lot easier now and i can let my mind wander and enjoy the sensations instead of worrying about drowning #the cool water on my skin #the muffled amniotic sounds of bubbling fluids #the mosaic tiles and patterns #the sunlight and caustics #every time i go its a social stress test- but I've gotten better at handling it and it helps me connect with other people in a tiny way #i dont know what the future of my body's training will look like as i plow into middle age #but im proud of myself for doing something totally new and finding joy in it

Back to Kai's nude photographs... What would it take for them to convince J of modeling? Be it nude or clothed👀

“Are you fucking kidding, Jean/Jade Gray?”

J rolls their eyes, “I’m just telling you to wash the fucking dishes for once, Kai,” perhaps there’s a little smirk on their lips as they say so—perhaps—they add, “Or do you have... so little interest in— in my body— in your craft?”

Almost offended, Kai purses their lips, crosses their arms, “Don’t joke around. Of course I want you.”

“I don’t feel exactly wanted. Especially when you’re not willing to compromise,” J pouts, almost mockingly, “Just the dishes, dear.”

A groan, followed by a complaint, “I know it’s not gonna be just the dishes. You’re playing so dirty.”

#yeah Kai's cleaning the entire house until J can see their reflection on the bathroom tiles #dropout #ask #dropout if #j gray #kai alofa #alofray #little drabble thing

Made it past Tuesday, or did I? After all, every day is Tuesday in Tuesdayville ... pinkest of skies this morning so I'm thinking of shepherds ... the shiny metropolis trip yesterday brought me a book, to go with all my other books, tsundoku is the only way ... there was a particular story that caught my eye, moths as vengeance for murder. As I crouched down with Signor Floyd this morning admiring the water trays, he pointed out that we in turn were being watched ... he tapped at the little pebble, and I tapped my camera, and then we left the pebble to its pebbley existence and went in for coffee ...

obssessed with the suite eyrie has in radz-at/han that I’m building in my mind

#it’s a smaller suite—all one room #it’s got arched lattice windows along one side of the room #with these beautiful thin gossamer white curtains on them #the adjoining wall is all doors that overlook one of the gardens #it’s often host to all sorts of creatures in the mornings #like peacocks and wild parrots #there’s two beds tucked away behind partitions #and white curtains draped over the beds (bc mosquitoes are certainly a problem) #they love the suite when it rains bc all of the windows are open air and let it the cool air #and they love watching the rain and the light in the suite reflecting off of the rich colors and tile of the suite #and yeah there’s two bed but eyrie and Estinien end up sharing one a lot #the night terrors go brr #me slapping the top of this place in my head you can fit so many fic ideas #I have got to find a prompt list for myself bc I’m sitting here with ideas and general vibes but no real direction to take them in #not looking tk be asked for prompts but looking for prompts as a jumping off point #Owen talks

very loose mockups of Cardinal and Domino

#oh my poor sleep schedule. but the hyperfixations #my art #the compass logo is bc of the cardinal directions #the domino logo is meant to be a cross between the domino mask. domino tiles. and also the red hood logo #bc in universe these costumes were meant to be jason's so the design elements reflect that

no title, just a little thing i wrote up just now bc i had the idea

takes place roughly around book 5-75, replacing the scene where yuu goes to look for grim. mild content warning for an injury but it's not too graphic i dont think

~

The sky is black and grey with the remains of storm clouds; the streets are glassy like mirrors, made as such by the sudden downpour of rain during the evening and all throughout the night. Reflected in the slick stone tiles is the magical flame from the streetlamps, setting the ground ablaze with harsh light.

Yu pays all of this little mind as he dashes across campus, his sneakers already soaked through the soles. The cold hardly bothers him—it doesn’t stand a chance when his anxiety is already gnawing away at him.

[ x1 Blot Crystal remains at the coliseum. ]

If the blot crystal remains at the Purple Stage, it won’t be found until after the Culture Fair—and if so, it will continue to affect visitors to the end of the event. Yu is far from a saint, but after bearing witness to five separate overblots, he refuses to run any risks. 

He has to get to that crystal, and hide it with all the others. And soon.

After what feels like too long, he finally reaches the coliseum. The gates are closed, almost mockingly so, but that’s fine—they’re not too tall, so without too much overthinking, Yu manages to scale them and end up free on the other side. As soon as he does, he pushes his freezing feet and hurries to the stage.

[ Set tracker to find target object? ]

“Yes, please,” mutters Yu, feeling jittery. While he waits for the tracker to activate, he looks around in short, shivering jerks of his head.

[ USER is 10m from Blot Crystal. ]

And so begins the game of hot and cold pursuit—relying on the tracker, Yu searches desperately for the latest blot crystal, even as he has to zip up his pitifully thin jacket and rub his chilled hands together through his gloves. But he refuses to give up, strangely motivated by some reason.

Until he finally finds it.

[ USER is 0m from Blot Crystal. ]

Thank fuck, he thinks, forcing a hand through the foundations of the stage and blindly grabbing until his grip connects with a rock-like object. One numbly painful extrication later, he has the blot crystal in his hands. It’s almost identical to the others, but with a distinct sickeningly saccharine scent, and a violet hue around the edges.

And, disturbingly, it feels warm through Yu’s gloves. No, not warm—warm would describe the feeling of Riddle’s crystal, with the lingering effect of his overpowering fire spells. This feels more like—like—

At the same time that Yu becomes aware of his palm being corroded to rawness, his head is assaulted by an acute feeling of painful dizziness. He gasps and drops the crystal, hearing it sizzle menacingly all the way down, and tears off what remains of his glove. The cold air stings where it touches the now-exposed skin of his palm, an angry red. Veiny lines of black start to stretch outwards from the edges of the corrosion.

[ DEBUFF ACQUIRED — Fairest Poison: -1 HP every second until medical intervention or unconsciousness. Increased dizziness, nausea, and shortness of breathing. ]

[ DEBUFF ACQUIRED — Blot Exposure (Lvl. 2): USER will begin to experience lightheadedness and other symptoms of sickness. Max HP is reduced by 20 points. ]

[ BLOT METER: 30/100 … 38/100 … 46/100 … ]

[ HP: 68/80 … 67/80 … 66/80 … ]

“What the fuck?” asks Yu aloud, because his head hurts too much to think right now. “Why does the crystal have poison on it—oh, who am I kidding, it was V—”

He staggers, losing his sense of balance as pain blooms in his head again. It throbs again, then, so intensely that his vision blacks out for a moment. More and more notifications pop up in his peripheral, but he can’t read what they say. 

“Ughh…”

Yu sways dangerously when he tries to take a step forward, losing control of his body for a frankly terrifying amount of seconds. When the coordination partially comes back to him, he tries to continue, but his head hurts even more, and—

Suddenly he’s on his knees. When did that happen?

“Gotta at least… get someone to help,” he mutters, shaking his head to try and clear the dizziness. It doesn’t work. And then, placing his damaged hand on his knee, he tries to stand up but immediately hisses in pain. “Shit—I just need to—”

Out of the corner of his eye flashes the biggest notification so far:

[ WARNING: HP is low. Fainting imminent. ]

“—get outta… here…”

The ground seems to come up to meet him. Yu’s eyes slip shut, and he experiences the peace of one’s senses vanishing.

#kai's writing #twst oc #yuusona #i had... this vision of a street at night made wet with rain #and the reflection of streetlights on the tiles #and the splashes created by someone frantically running #so here we are i guess? haha #i don't think this is meteorologically(...???) accurate but #ok well. it had to serve my vision ok. that is a higher purpose
