i think possibly the chiefest point of horror in my first viewing of the terror, which still gets me every time, is Irving encountering the Netsilik family.
it’s a great, gutwrenching scene. Irving doesn’t intend any violence to them. he’s earnest, and they’re earnest in return—Koveyook feeds him, and you know it won’t save him, he’s asking too impossibly much of them when he mentions the rest of the crew, but it’s good in what it intends. on both sides, even.
and you know watching, from the outset, that somehow Irving is going to kill these people. somehow, in short order, this officer of the largest empire in world history is going to blow all their lives up. just by showing up, he’s condemned them to something; just by being aware of them, he’s taking from them. blast radius of imperialism.
and it’s so terrible, because they fed him and he gave them the only pretty and sentimental offering he had on him and ultimately, Irving won’t ever even know he got them killed, though they will have died thinking he meant to do it.
and even so: it doesn’t matter that he didn’t mean it. because they didn’t know him!! and they fed him! and they were murdered for it. take and take and take and take. fuck

A landscape commission for @dreadfutures plus a little Lavellan. This was insanely challenging to make and ended up taking months to make; many hard but valuable lessons learned in the way. Endless thanks to Blue's patience and trust in this 🙌
I don't usually add the process video into the art post itself but here it goes below the cut

hi I saw your sketch requests, and was wondering if you've ever drawn fenris x anders? i feel like you portray the combination of hurt and love so well that they would be a perfect pairing for your work!
Thanks! I think if I weren’t so loyal to handerses, I’d ship them. I love that they’re two sides of the same coin. And their banters ohhh... they don’t write dialogue like this in games anymore :c
