so the cat's out of the bag! i was lucky enough to paint the art for the upcoming cast reunion. you can check out the poster here! but i thought it'd be fun to share the painting, some detail shots, chit-chat a little. so here it is!
detail shots underneath
this one was a lot of fun to do! that centre line is the focal point, so i had a lot of leeway with how loose i could keep everything outside of it. a really thicc paper overlay hides all sins
head! it's pretty different from how i normally paint him, but pulp heroes tend to be really built! broader than how i usually do it. blood is pouring from his mouth but don't worry about it. he's fine
torso! now we're getting gory! easily the part i had the most trouble with. initially, i was gonna do the clawmarks along his dress shirt with the wounds underneath poking through, but between the cloth fabric, the flesh (which is almost the same colour and value as the shirt!), the bleeding, making the cloth look wet, it ended up way too busy!! so, the shirt had to go. please, dry your tears. those claws tear up other clothing around the canvas and i was originally going to carry that over into the belt and pants, but when i painted it and took a step back it veered more into pulp romance than it did noir. speaking of...
pants drapery! you can see what i mean about loose painting. the pants are very rendered while that arm is a block of colour. that broken finger was actually a mistake, but i really like how it looked, so i kept it in. he's also double-cheeked up on a thursday afternoon. the style demanded it, you understand. let's never speak of this again. talking about style...
here's the original cover i was asked to riff on! originally i misunderstood what the sign was going to be, but when i fixed it it turned into a real bob ross happy accident because it means that, with a little tweaking, i could sell it as a fractured shoulder! yay! on and off, this took about a month. i'm thrilled to finally be able to share it!! crazy this is gonna hang in the va's home, right?

Okay, walk with me here: so McMahon has a ring on his finger, meaning he COULD be married and to whom, we don’t know. That being said, this opens up the potential that later on in the story, there could be a chapter where he and his spouse(?) could go on a double date with Loid and Yor, wherein someone from Garden outside of Yor comes face to face with Twilight.
Shopkeeper, already suspicious of Loid after Yor tells him about Loid’s interest in the Desmond party, tells McMahon to keep an eye on Loid and pseudo-interrogates him about his political interests. Loid gives a safe answer, but still prompts McMahon to look more into who Loid Forger is; somehow leading him to figuring out his true identity as Twilight.

Yes, a lee not being as ticklish and having the ler assure them that they're just as valid and working with them to find spots and techniques that work is great and all
But consider
Vice versa
A ler who is self-conscious about tickling and doesn't really know the right techniques or ways to go about it, and a lee who patiently walks them through it and works with them to find what tickles most

Can you imagine Gale during his isolation? An entire year, an entire year with little more than the shadows swelling in the corner of your library and the growing thoughts pressing hard against the cage of your skull. Gale with his Molotov of emotions, his bouts of extreme sorrow, bone-crushing hopelessness, the anger, the bitterness, the acceptance of a guilt he has no business accepting. Imagine how he suffered before he found out how to temper the teeth and hunger of the orb in his chest. Did he suffer? Did the rot spiral to a frightening degree? What he thought when he felt the skin of his arm break, spot the drip of blood that poured not red but purple, a shade of purple so steep and dark that it paled night and voids and whole penumbras. How he felt as Tara turned her eyes on him, her composure riled, ruptured just a touch with a worry she tries so very hard not to show around Mr. Dekarios. How he felt getting letters from acquaintances, not friends, that dwindled and dwindled as the months passed on with no response from Gale of Waterdeep, famed archmage and lover of Mystra herself. How he lost so much of his magic. How he felt spurned from the goddess he looked up to for nearly all his life, how he felt when the Weave, when the spells he spent so long learning and perfecting were torn from him, swallowed by this sucking bomb in his bones.
How alone. How quiet. How Tara would leave to find artefacts once they discovered the Weave inside them would balm and thwart his ticking doom by a whisper of time. How, in those days, he would sit there with books he's already read thrice over, his hair speckled with more grey, the beard he's been growing out scratching against his face. His lonely terrace. Mother's tone of increasing concern in her hand-written letters, piled together on Gale's desk with quaint twine, the broken seal of House Dekarios waxed in an indigo shade over the parchment. It smells of her. He misses home, and home has never felt so far.

Made a ratio pkmn friend roster, had to give him some duck friends too
he's giving the slowpoke brain training and iq tests every day so it can evolve into a wrinkly brain slowking one day 😂
[ID: digital drawing of Dr. Ratio with 6 pokemon team and 3 on standby. His portrait has him wearing a doctor's lab coat with glasses and a stethoscope around his neck. His tie has his purple gem on it. His team consists of a psyduck (with a matching laurel!), metagross, noctowl, alakazam (with mega stone), uxie, and reuniclus. His standby pokemon are slowpoke, shiny porygon 2, and quaxly.]

Slowly making my way through eskew after a very very long break.
And I am happy how much Weird City loves/loves to torture that odd man, David Ward. This is what that tumblr-trend feels like to me. Like "sorry (not sorry) but i put your boyfriend in the dryer without checking if there was something already in there (i knew what was in there).. now he smells like old shoes and has multiple new holes in him".
Obsessive and absurd. Eskew is rotating that man around like he is in a microwave.
Edit: I am in love with Riyo.
