#broodart #solas #solas dai #fenharel #trespasser spoilers #sorta...? #i could keep picking at this but honestly im satisfied now so. time to set it free.

[broodsys]

not sure which version i like better so u get both!

there's definitely more i could do here but im reaching a point where im quite satisfied with it, so im gonna take what i learned and move on. very proud of my overall progress tho <3 some detail shots too!

#broodart #solas #solas dai #this was funnnn

[broodsys]

still hate drawing eyes on actual drawings, but im getting better at it. still deciding where exactly to go with this but it's also just a decompressing drawing and it's working well for that purpose <3

#broodart #solas #sure. he gets tagged now.

[broodwolf221]

okay, p satisfied with it now!

an alternate view of the duality of Solas; Pride as the Day, Wisdom as the Night

little stream of consciousness excerpt to go along with them:

a burning wave of brutal sunlight that scorches the earth the ego of it the growth the rising sun the dawn announcing a new day the bright light that dispels shadows and claims to know all the shapes within that claims secret things that casts its eye possessively towards all the noise and bluster of a busy day using all hours of sunlight because you have to, you have a duty, you have a job to do, it must be done pride

the cool wash of a thoughtful night that makes you feel small and a part of everything all at once the gentle comfort of shadows that obscure and let you wonder the questions that press against you the gentle contemplative presence of night, of rest, of dreams and peace, the release of presumption and ego, the curiosity that slips across your mind the distant points of stars like lights in the sky wisdom

and the post that started it all

#broodart #solas #solas dai #fenharel #okay now THIS one is rebloggable <3

[broodwolf221]

was talking abt alternative representations of duality and how i liked the more literal sun/moon (night sky) interpretation, thus... these little sketchy beasts <3

also! i see pride/the 'demon' as the gold wolf and wisdom as the blue wolf <3

#broodart #would normally go on my main but i feel like im edging into spoilers in that case #no rbs allowed bc it's a hella wip but yeah #maybe a little too on the nose? but i still like it #stars strewn thru a wolf's fur is cool #i keep thinking of phrases to add to this lmao

[broodsys]

obv a lot still to do but? um??? im so.... almost annoyed at how well this thing about using heads to proportion out the rest of the drawing is working......

also this is my inky's current gear! final colors still to be determined but this is the basic design. wanted something that felt less rogue-like and more mage-like

[broodsys]

10/30, 10/11, 9/21 - i, uh. think i've made some progress.

#broodart #im being facetious i am honestly RLY fucking proud of how far ive come #ofc there's always more to do and learn but i have been RIDICULOUSLY committed and just drawing So Much

[broodsys]

im having fun AND posting to the right blog this time <3 my inky.... or a small part of her, lmao. this method is fun but it takes FOREVER im like uhhhh i have two whole people to do...? okay.

#broodart #not that it rly matters which blog but yknow

[broodsys]

not sure ill stick with shading with black, but i do like it! i lose a fair amount of detail but still

#broodart #solavellan #last post bc it's done now <3 #black nail solas is so unrealistic but just. let me have this. #delwyn lavellan

[broodwolf221]

you meet a traveler. well-dressed, with an oddly marked hand.

despite his calm demeanor, there is something... foreboding about him.

#broodart #solas #solas dai #i think ive done what i can here #fucking hell tho why did i give him different types of metal on his armor. idk how to render metal for the life of me. anyway!

[broodsys]

okay, i think im done with this one. it's been fun! at first he was judgy now it just looks like he's escaping the glare. which is a Mood tbh.
