She shimmered and was abruptly in the form of a stout opera singer, complete with medieval robe.

lily be the kind of vampire to awkwardly flirt her way into acquiring your blood type and barty be the kind of shithead to laugh and mock her for it while she actively has her fangs inside him

lily as a vampire is a wonderful concept because i have trouble imagining her out of the sunshine. i think she still looks as lively & red-blooded & sunkissed as the farmers daughter she was before getting turned and it’s very dangerous.

vampire!regulus is my favorite though… that man is allergic to three different blood types and will despondently sigh after sucking someone dry because now he has a rash. he got turned in 1446 after his monastery gave shelter to a dark & mysterious stranger (he was the ambiguously homosexual spare son sacked off to go illuminate manuscripts) and he specifically was bitten because he was the only monk bitchy enough to verbally be like “hey maybe we should not give shelter to this guy his vibes are fucking terrible”. only thing he ever enjoyed in his undead life was living to see high collars & male corsets come into fashion and he’s still sopping around moping about how short-lived it was like a century later

#a #t #you didn’t ask but i sure am thinking about it #vampire barty was 10000% a medieval knight. but like a really shitty noncommittal one who kept fucking off on ‘quests’#<- the quest in question took an extra 8 months because he can’t stop charming noble daughters into letting him stay in their castle #they’re like tell me about your noble quest ser knight and he’s like *having a really good time in the provided robe*#*eating a pheasant*#so you said your father was hunting boar this afternoon? how stimulating. i myself am an excellent huntsman

Adam outfit layers:

Zero: Nude (fig leaf for censorship). He’s tall and has a lot of body hair. Was really fit when he was human, but has gone to seed after a millennia of wealth and power. Large gold wings. He usually lets them hang by his sides because Comfy. Halo. Generally scruffy looking.

One: undergarments. A linen shift to absorb sweat and protect the skin. Socks held up with ribbons. Leather gloves and shoes.

Two: Kirdle. A wool support garment to smooth out the lines of the outer layers. Close fitting buttoned sleeves.

Three: robe. Wool vestments with a punk rock twist to them.

Four: outer garments. An embroidered wool doublet. His Exorcist mask - the face plate lights up and is semipermeable because Angel Magic . He only takes it off when he’s sleeping.

My man is Bundled, hope it’s not too hot in heaven, otherwise he’s gonna be sweating like crazy.

#hazbin hotel #my art #hazbin hotel adam #reference sheet #I realize that these layers are mostly medieval woman's wear and my mans homophobic #but he doesn't wear pants idk what to tell you #in another world he'd wear cargo shorts and graphic tees #but i don't see that fitting nicely under his fancy robe

oh paul was fed up with that hag and i can't blame him

#my art #ask #dune #dune art #gaius helen mohiam #she's insufferable but in a kinda iconic way #anyways i like to think she had some additional jewelry alongside the regular bg robe #to symbolize the power of the sisterhood? while in darwi times it was more about gals being pals or smth and they all wore the same thing #if that makes any sense #and i ended in a medieval nuns attire rabbit hole on pinterest the other day sooo yeah it's totally her #dune messiah

Random thoughts for the day, which came to me not just because of Fire Emblem but also my own comics-

This is probably not surprising to anyone who's followed me for a while but, I really don't like the aesthetic of classic high fantasy. I'm talking like knights and elves and wizards....it's alright and I've definitely enjoyed stuff like Elder Scrolls and Dragon Age ect. but the actual settings are pretty forgettable (unless you're specifically talking about the WEIRD areas like Morrowind or the daedric realms).

I think this is because I grew up on games like Tales and Final Fantasy. These games take the tropes of high fantasy but they tend to mix in elements of lost technology, or aesthetic elements that are somewhat alien. If you've ever played Tales I'm talking about things like the dungeons within the planet in Tales of the Abyss with the floating music themed platforms, or the entire realm of Spira in FFX which is so colorful with the oddly shaped buildings, or even the way FFVII mixes things like magic and spirits with highly advanced cities.

I just think it's so much more fun when designers are able to expand their influences out past medieval Europe gray/brown colored familiar sameness. That's why I made it a point to reference Asian cultures in my own comic (and for my future project ideas I want to do stuff like turn of the century American fantasy, or Mediterranean inspired fantasy and things like that).

I think this is also why I like Awakening and Fates (and Kozaki designs in general) more than other FE settings even though the world's themselves aren't that fleshed out. They're just more interesting to look at.

Tldr: I think it's important for designers to take inspiration from reality when creating a fantasy world, but I also think it's way more effective when the push the boundaries past just making things look "realistic". I want to see more fantasy realms that are inspired by things that aren't medieval Europe, as I've said many times before. Let it be alien. Let it be anachronistic.

#this is partly an excuse for me to complain that ive always thought wizard robes look stupid #which is part of the reason i dont like soren's archsage robes :P #too wizard-y #yes its true i prefer kozaki's designs over the ones from tellius even though im a tellius fan #theyre pretty good for being kind of bland medieval-ish designs #at least most of the laguz designs are a bit more interesting

So I saw the D&D movie this week and I loved it as:

a child of the 80s who has watched The Princess Bride and Monty Python & the Holy Grail a lot

someone who played D&D on Saturday nights in college (yes, my friends and I were very cool, thank you)

a professional medievalism-enjoyer

Film tropes! D&D tropes! Visual and aural acknowledgement of the fact that D&D was created and is played by people who have read LOTR a lot! Also some subversion of tropes! Just... A+ work all around. Also I love knowing when the bard rolled a nat1.

But anyway what I was going to say was: how did you all (by which I mean largely @letmetellyouaboutmyfeels) convince me that the bard/paladin thing was at least canon-adjacent? How did you get there? I am... both bewildered and deeply impressed.

#fun with medievalism #dungeons and dragons: honor among thieves #d&d #fandom #the backstory™ bits alone just... sent me #also hugh grant is having SO much fun in his flamboyant robes #good for him

This is the other version of DA user Colinidas's character Priscilla/Queenie and is much closer to his vision. Here she's more obviously a queen with her crown and robes and I may draw her as a human queen if I feel inspired. In the meantime, check out his summary for his story Queenie of the lamp to know what these characters are about: https://www.deviantart.com/colinidas/art/Don-Bluth-s-Queenie-Of-The-Lamp-1032080511

Both of these characters belong to Deviantart user Colinidas.

As always, comments and critiques are welcome.
