Hahhaha ofc ofc, they aren't really doing anything in specific, I personally enjoy conveying emotions in my art, because I think it's amazing how you can sometimes tell so much about a character in a single image, it's the magic in art for me personally.
And with PJO the inner emotions of characters are so amazingly written even when you're only able to read them through the eyes of Percy (in the first books ofc) and I really wanted to show the emotions Luke felt towards the camp after his first quest in contrast to young Annabeth who was all in all, even though she's smart, just a young innocent girl at the end of the day, with nowhere else to go besides the side of the one family member she has left after the loss of Thalia馃馃き
I know I'm a tad late to the discussion but what fairytalepsuedonym wrote is what happend with this particular piece!
I'm personally a huuuuuge Luke fan and really wanted to draw him with Annabeth, also since I was rereading the books after the main three of the cast got announced, so I was really in the Annabeth and Luke headspace hahaha, but there weren't any actor announcements for Luke yet, that's why I went off the version I've always had of him in my mind!
Although ngl it was a bit fun to read through everyone's thoughts and opinions on this, as a mostly digital artist it often feels like I just throw my art into the void and it sits there silently, so it always feels like my art regains a bit of life whenever it's discussed! Not to mention that it gives me some insight on how people view my art and how I can improve on it/make it more inclusive!!!!
Hi! I just want to say that as a PJO fan, your art is very delicious and you're super underrated. Also, I love that you're a Luke Castellan defender tee hee.
Aaaah thank you so much 馃槶馃槶馃槶
I'm always happy to hear my silly little illustrations are being appreciated by the community!!!
And ofc I'll be a Luke defender till I die hahahaha 馃き
Animation I did for a school project, where we had to make a 10 second animation on a Dutch audio fragment, and I animated a fragment from Lekker Spelen (basically the dutch version of oneyplays)
!!!Spoilers for the Percy Jackson Series Episode 2!!!
I personally (as a Luke apologist), LOVED how percy talked in the second episode regarding the gods and their role as parents.
Most notably with the night time sc猫ne where percy burnt the blue candy as an offering to his mom (note how it was to his mother, because she's the one he wanted to talk to and not his father who he, at that point still didn't know). In that specific sc猫ne Percy literally voices what Luke stands behind. His resentment towards a father, who is alive and well, and very powerful, who didn't come to help him or his mother who he supposedly should have loved.
Percy talks to his mother about how he will bring the Gods down from their high and mighty places so they can be equal. It's literally everything Luke stands behind and I love how that sc猫ne showed that in the earliest moments Percy spend at the camp, he was actually very close to following down the path Luke ended up on.
I remember often feeling like maybe I read the books wrong, or interpreted Luke and his situation wrong. I've always been very convinced that Percy and Luke were two sides of the same coin, they both could've ended up on each other's paths. And the only reason why Luke was deemed the evil bad guys, was literally just because external factors manipulated him into thinking there was only one way, I've always seen Luke as more of a victem than an actual perpetrator (making me love the moments in the books that compared Percy and Luke's points, showing how they basically felt the exact same towards the gods). But from some of the fans I always felt this intense hatred and just general distain towards Luke, almost writing him off as just a bad guy that no one should like, when there is so much depth to him as an antagonist.
That made the sc猫ne of Percy, using a method to pray to the gods, to pray to his mother all while condemning the gods, so powerful to me, you could've literally swapped Percy and Luke in that sc猫ne and it wouldn't have made a difference (considering if Luke's mom was still sane like Sally is, btw on that note image how easily percy would've turned into the antagonist if his dad dared to do to Sally as what Hermes did to May, just saying).
Anyway this was an analysis of something that had always been on my mind, and even more so after that second episode, it felt like it really confirmed to me that Luke really is a subject to his enviorment, because how can Luke and Percy have the same goals, but can only one of them be called a hero. I'm so happy to have seen it reflected to perfectly in the series, that when I saw it, and I heard that music swell up in the background, it stuck with me the entire day and I just had to put it down, so thank you to anyone that read this far, I appreciate your interest in my rant about how Luke is actually very tragic and I love him hahahanfndnfndnd
Congrats to the actors and everyone who worked on the #pjo show on the first day of release! I'm super hyped to watch the first episode today!!! For today I quickly remade the illustation I did when the show got first announced in the small bit of free time I have hahahaha
A; "You can analyze all you want, but that's my 72nd consecutive win Perc."
G; "There is pride in admitting defeat Percy,,,"
P; "I've beat Ares in battle,,, why can't I get one win?!?!?!"
