Hi, I love your art! As a request, I would love some Empire siblings, maybe studying together, or Beau teaching Caleb how to throw a punch, or really anything your heart desires with those two. Thank you and congrats on the new followers 💜
Good requeeest, thanks! I love the Empire Sibs, but I've never drawn just the two of them interacting, so yeahh this was fun.. I was planning on adding colour (that's why Caleb has no scars on his arms), but I'm going to do that later I think!

Hello! This might be a silly question, but yknow that wedding commission you did? (https://www.tumblr.com/sergle/748659165732454400/everyone-pls-direct-your-attention-to-these-tags).
The foliage in the background has that really nice yellow glow, and I was just wondering how you did that. Is it a layer effect or done by hand? It's a lovely touch and adds such warmth for being so subtle, I like it a lot. :^)
Have a nice day!
Ooh!! okay, I definitely remember this and didn't just go back and look through the layers to see what I did on the piece.
it's basically just a couple of overlays!! in various shades of beige and yellow.
The foliage bg on its own, with nothing on top of it, just looks like this:
I have one layer of beige overlaid, which does this:
plus another layer of yellow, smudgy this time to make it look softer:
then just super loose yellow lineart overlaid on the edges of the leaves, and a noise filter to go on top of it.
it's super duper quick! the rest of the lighting comes from a super low opacity orange tint and a super low opacity watercolor scan that I keep on deck. but yeah basically just a few layers of yellow on top of shades of blue!-- I was originally gonna do a plain color bg for this portrait, but it didn't look right until I did the foliage thing!

this is probably going to be controversial and it's not meant to be a slight against gale or people who enjoy that particular headcanon, but:
i love gale, i truly do. but gale would not be great with kids imo. i can't see him as a father. i think i may have talked about this before, but i keep seeing it and while he has many great qualities, this, in my eyes, would not be one of them.
(apart from him saying outright that he doesn't consider himself "father material". which... why is this constantly being dismissed, lol? not wanting yenna to starve or arabella&mirkon not to die does not a good father make.)
he's extremely impatient. he states that several times over. even with the protag ("if the roles were reversed, i don't know if i would have your patience."), and while he does like sharing his knowledge and engaging different types of people from different cultures and walks of life in conversations, to learn, he has again, no patience.
there is a line about him having had students, too, but he does also state in the same breath that their "ineptitudes" irked him. he strikes me more as a professor with older students, who already have some sort of knowledge that he would be able to build on - and even that is sort of reaching tbh imo. what i would find more accurate is him being in the role of some sort of researcher, being able to do things alone and at his own speed. exchanging ideas with colleagues every now and then, perhaps.
so if he already disliked having students, and being annoyed by them, having no patience for them, i just am unsure how this is meant to work out with tiny little kids. again, i just cannot stress enough how much patience you need with children.
there's also other minor stuff like being sensitive about chaos, messes, smells, etc., liking his quiet and solitary time, etc.
all in all, i just think that gale being kind with children you meet in-game, not wishing for them to starve or die, doesn't necessarily translate to being a good parent.
i also think that someone being reluctant - or in gale's case, outright saying he doesn't consider himself the material - is not a great place to start either.
