Illustrations for the First Chapter of Hooked (my Jalim Fantasy AU)!
It’s about the meeting of an emperor and an envoy, who are a berserk and a paladin. Their countries don’t get on that well, but in difficult times they have to form an alliance.
Here’s a Jalim Au created solely because I wanted to draw a sexy doctor/psychiatrist Salim in glasses
I actually created this a few months ago but was reaaally dissatisfied with the results so I didn’t post it but I’ve found a new motivation to finish it. I honestly can’t tell you what the AU was supposed to be about anymore so feel free to interpret it as you’d like. It’s probably about some interdimensional shit, maybe some travelling into another dimension, where you and the guy you’ve had a crush on are not dead yet but Jason still has memories of that weird place and his knowledge about it was perceived as a threat by the higherups so they decided to cut him off from the outside world by faking his diagnosis. The psychiatric hospital he ended up in would be doing some shady business with the military or with the people at Centcom, helping them with covering some inconvenient stuff up, although Salim would probably be unaware of most of those things or know just a part of it. I know it’s a mess 😂
As shameless as it sounds, my main goal was to draw a sexy doctor Salim in glasses and the rest was just me trying to set up a background for it. He’ll have to deal with a new patient who’s kinda cute though so I’d say it’s a win 👀
