A marker drawing of Ishmael & Queequeg from moby dick. They’re both sitting on a bed, leaning against each other, holding hands. Ishmael is a light skinned man with long straight hair - Queequeg is tan skinned and has swirling tattoos on his face and hands. The entire drawing is colored in shades of blue, purple, and light pink.)
C3 E92 spoiler (I also posted just the image, no text/sound in a separate post) - This is my first time playing with adding sound and text. I considered animating it but I didn't have time (and I have other images I want to work on).

Orym after battle, sitting knees to his chest with his arms wrapped around them. In one hand is a glowing sending stone, in the left he's holding the right shoulder (with the double moon tattoo). He's looking up to the sky with a tear running down his cheek. Shield laying on the ground behind him, and both his swords strapped to his back..
what if ahab got to be a little cosmic horror? as a treat? (more art from a few months ago because i’m so good at posting)
(ID: several black and white ink drawings of ahab from moby dick.
the first image is a full body drawing, and shows him hunched over wiping ink that’s spilling out of his mouth from his face while holding a harpoon. his eyes are cast in shadow, but what we can see of his expression is dangerous and angry. his form fades into shadow at the bottom of his coat. from the shadowy coat, both his live leg in a boot and his whalebone prosthetic leg are seen, as well as several squid tentacles protruding. there is a silhouette of the full squid behind him, and it melds with his form — it becomes unclear whether the tentacles are coming from Ahab or from the squid.
the second image has two bust drawings of ahab. most of his face is still in shadow, but he is looking at the viewer with a snarl, and we can still see ink stains spilling from his nose and mouth down his chin and onto his coat. the shadows and his snarl deepen in the second drawing. sideways handwriting on the side of the image reads “God help thee, old man; thy thoughts have created a creature in thee.”
the third image is a drawing of both squid-Ahab and starbuck, both from the waist up. they are embracing, ahab with a firm hand on starbuck’s upper arm, and leaning into each other, almost kissing. ahab is smiling mischievously, and starbuck’s face is in a reverent smile. the black ink is dripping from both their mouths down their chins. tentacles are pulling starbuck closer to ahab. behind ahab is a sketchy halo.
ahab has forgone his coat and is wearing a collared shirt and waistcoat. starbuck is wearing a dark blazer.
the fourth image is a pencil sketch of Ahab in profile, grinning, with tentacles and dripping ink drawn in front of him.)
