Symbiote Spider-Man entrance was one of the highlights of the trailer, I was inspired to draw something like this.

Hi!!! Idk who Bathsheba is but your fanart of her is absolutely gorgeous! (Ik that some of them aren’t ur art but it’s still consider urs.)

Actually no fanart made for my fanfics is mine. I know how to write, but not how to draw. Fortunately, I’ve been blessed with the friendship of many amazing, talented people who have been kind enough to read my fics in the past and decided to gift me some art made by them, based both in my OCs or other TR characters.

Since you asked, I want to mention them again to tribute their love, friendship and dedication to my fics. None of this works were commissioned - not because I won’t pay for their talent, which I’m doing anyway in other aspects (Patreon, Redbubble), - but because it’s my moral guideline not to tell artists to draw something for me. I feel happy enough to see they draw and keep their talent alive. So, all of this pieces were given out of their good heart and free will. I’m gonna just mention and show some artwork.

1. @hydraballista

Powerful, passionate, this artist who is well formed in comic style drawing and digital design has gifted me many drawings, scenes and sketches devoted to my fics and my OCs. She has done some wonderful works, indeed, but I want to remark the digital covers made for the Spanish versions of The Golden Seal and Lilith’s Scepter, my first two TRAOD sequels, a wonderful design out of her brilliant and creative mind. Not only that, she’s been kind and generous to gift me two copies of my own fics in this design and the original of Lara kissing Kurtis at the end of the first sequel, among other little scraps and sketches.

It is well to highlight her rough and strong Lara and his cheerful and carefree Kurtis, liberated from all grief, she loves to draw, far from any sexualization or shallowness. It is good to mention she’s right now working in her own comic project of Bloodline, which was meant to be Kurti’s first spin-off game.

2. @adayka

Sometimes sweet, sometimes powerful, sometimes dramatic, sometimes funny as hell, Jasmine, to whom belongs the Batsheba you’ve seen and has generated this ask, is one of the most recent blessings to my fanfics. Her drawing and colouring talent has really no limits. Despite she has a very defined style for her faces, she’s able to draw a wide range of expressions and situations always managing to touch your heart. There not a thing she can’t draw, and she’s been the most prolific in drawing for my fics.

Not only prolific, but also kind and generous: she’s been amazingly altruist to gift me practically all the originals she has drawn for them, including an amazing, craft handed Kurtis’ journal taken from the lore of my fics - Kurtis having a sketchbook to practice drawing; and this far before that we knew Murti Schofield has plannes a similar reward for the @trdarkangel project. Inspired, also, in Werner’s diary in TRAOD, of course.

3. Carola Funder

Used to be a very appreciated TR fan artist, though now it’s been a while she has moved on to other projects, she drew some scenes for The Golden Seal out of her good will, which I’m still very grateful for. 

Her strong, well built - even buffed - athletic figures are very remarkable of her style. She has drawn some of the best classic/TRAOD Laras AND Kurtis that I can remind. All in traditional style.

4. @angel-in-shadow

Recently arrived to the current fandom, she’s a digital artist who has done many fresh, new renders using the actual models taken from the game, for which I’m grateful since I don’t like renders using “realistic” new models, or models for other games (specially LAU trilogy and reboot, ugh).

She has done covers and renders for The Golden Seal and Lilith’s Scepter, too, and some scenes for the first one. She’s also a fanfic author and is currently working on renders for her fic, The New Order.

5. @anentireamazon

- Anna, one of my latest OCs, from the fic The Awakening. Surely she reminds you of someone in particular, but with a slight change… :)

Currently developing her own style, my sister Elena works on digital art with her tablet out of her own motivation, that means, she’s autodidact. She has made many drawings for my fics and will probably kill me for sharing this one but here goes anyway.

Not many have dared yet with my Anna, so, this is a must.

6. Kyu Chan

Speaking of people who has dared with Anna… here comes Ariadna, Spanish reader and friend who has made some artworks for my recent fanfics Mr Vance Renner and The Legacy, the one still on updates. She also uses tablet and she’s one of the scarce, scarce Spanish readers left.

I’ll have to stop here so the post doesn’t go too far and it’s too long. Of course, many other artists (***) have worked on my fics in the past - I’m so lucky! - but I’ve mentioned them in past asks and if I recall correctly, those posts stop where this one starts. So I hope this one was useful and entertaining to you.

*** My love and tribute also to Kaworu, Damian, Mystique, Scheroff and @anyathebloodshell (*) for your contributions ***

Please, consider following these artists and giving them your best - likes and reblogs - for each one deserves love and have more and amazing works apart from the ones they did for my fics. And of course, if you once feel like reading my fics which are linked in this post, I’ll be immensely grateful myself, too.

As I said at the beginning, I don’t reclaim ownership on this works, they are theirs, not mine. But they were gifts and no gift shall be returned, right? ;) Thanks for the ask!

Merry Christmas to me by my dear friend @hydraballista ❤

What a morning to wake up to a ringbell of our postman who brought me this beautiful package from Turkey. I am speechless. I fangirled (and still am fangirling every five minutes) so hard!!!! Not only I've been sent absolutely beautiful Christmas and New Year's card (we have only Xmas ones and the Galata Tower is just wow) but she gifted me with her first ever Kurtis drawn for me some time ago.❤ It's a totally different feeling to hold it in hands. *insert incoherent fangirling sounds* Also the little Kurt on the other side is yummy 😏😁 I will never get over your perfect goatee depiction

Last but not least, my Potterhead me is crying! I can't contain my excitement over the Hogwarts list of required stuff for a first-year. With my name on it!! (McGonagall wrote meeee😁) That was missing in my collection and you remembered, I caaaaan't!😢 I cannot thank you enough! Thank you thank you thanjk you, m'lady!❤

#for real #merry christmas to me #fangirling level: epic #this means so much to me #i don't deserve this awesomeness #my living room looks so much prettier with these cuties on display #kurtis asking me every time i pass him #magnificent beast #and the letter #omg that letter! #i have all i need for my 1st year at hogwarts now hahaha #i can't #thank you million times for everything m'lady #hydraballista #the queen of art #let me screeeeeeeam in hapiness

Alternative Airlock by Hydraballista

I love this Illustration, always reminds me of that scene back in the airlock when Kurtis glanced at Lara that tiny little split of a second longer <3 

Awww that cute look on his face ^____^

The Bamboo Cage

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @positivelyamazonian !!!

Yes. This fanart is your birthday gift this year. I wish I could have bought you something but the future is uncertain to say the least and there’s a lot going on, you know it. So I thought that the best gift I could give you (according to the circumstances) was my time, my effort and my love for your fanfics.

Also, I know you love when someone draws something about your fanfics and even if I drew your characters I’m not happy with those drawings AT ALL. Ofc they were my first digital drawings with the iPad and you understand that it’s all I could do back then.

I’ve wanted to draw the bamboo cage since I read that chapter but I just didn’t feel like I was ready for it.

Drawing Lara is not easy for me. After all, she’s made of polygons and I always use real people as reference when I draw. However, I’m particularly happy with this older AoD Lara. When I draw scenes with Lara, I want the art to be cartoonish. It’s the first time I’m proud of the result.

Surely you remember my first attempt which was also inspired by one of your fanfics (Tomb Raider The Golden Seal). It was Lara looking at the Chirugai. I imagined she was doing that just before the first chapter of your fanfic. Well, it’s a mess. Now when I see it, I’m ashamed XD I failed completely when trying to draw the cartoonish/comic style I pursue.

This time I’ve wanted to add a quote so everyone can see the source of my inspiration. After talking to @luluvonv @hydraballista and @adayka we decided this was the best one. I had another 2 options and I’ll send you the sketches. I will also send you the original without the quote for you to do whatever you want with it.

A lot of talking here. I must be really bored if I’m taking all this time to write.

Anyway, happy birthday again. I hope you liked it and have a wonderful well deserved day!

Virtual kisses and hugs.

Your sister.

3 artists who I like the style off (In order: Mitografia, Inna Vjhuzhanina, Hydraballista).

#research #not sure how this links

[hydraballista]

A bit different than what I usually share here but, now that I'm studying Concept Art I wanted to share a thumbnail study I did as an assignment. Which was mainly about colors, which was something I was reaaally scared of until this study. And now I can even say I like trying colors? 😁 So anyway here they are.

People Are Strange... by Hydraballista

I love that song!! 

Also, funny idea of how Lara passed the time trapped in the airlock  :D And it fits the whole theme so well, after all Kurtis is still a stranger at this point. Very cool idea @hydraballista
