New hard-shading test, feat. tm!Viktor. Inspired by the arts of one of my favorite manga artists, Tomio Ogata (he's known for his work on the Devil May Cry manga: Visions of V).

Bloody version under the cut :v

Don't worry, it's not his blood xd

New chapter is out! Go check it out: https://archiveofourown.org/works/42401721/chapters/167924917

This chapter shifts the focus to Undercity, showing the perspective of Vi and Silco about what happened and what's going on. We also have some of the lore expansion I did for this AU.

NOTICE: As more and more fanfic writers are using generative AI for their works (you uncreative dweebs), I hereby swear on everything I hold dear that I have not and will NEVER use generative AI in ANY of my written work. Everything I post will be organically and creatively my own.

I LIIIIIIIVEEEEE! /jk

Sorry for the lack of art recently (;-;) It's just that work sometimes uses a lot of my creative/art braincells, and I don't want them to have a burnout >_>

Anyways! I'm doing tm!Jinx's reference sheet now \o/ it will be two sheets for her and one for her ArcTech companion, Buster (tm!Pow-pow).

Also, I will probably leave that other rendered art as its own artwork and not use it on her profile because I'm not liking it that much (to be used in a profile), to be very honest... but I still want to finish it! Someday (._.)

Where is Smolder's Mom in this AU?

Oh! I'm glad you asked! :D

She's basically Jinx, Viktor and Caitlyn's coach* in magic and fight, while also guarding the ArcTech laboratory inside Mount Targon. All that she asks in return is for they take care of her son and teach him how modern society works.

*I believe that's the word is English.

That reminds me, I need to give her a name, because she canonically doesn't have one (I'll do a tumblr poll about it).

Just to let you guys know, I'm not on a hiatus again xd

Just irl keeping me busy >_>

Since I haven't posted art for a while already, have another teaser of the upcoming chapter of the fic:

I'm adding more flavor to some of the secondary characters and to the Firelight's community here too :D

Something that just occurred to me, and I'm sure I didn't make it on purpose: the relation of Jinx and the characters she interacts with in canon are mostly completely inverted/reversed in this AU 🤔

Spoilers below!

These are the most extreme examples:

Silco: family -> deadly enemies

Caitlyn: sworn enemies -> besties

Vi: no voices in her head -> got voices in her head*

Ekko: saves Jinx -> Ekko is saved by Jinx (but for different reasons)

Viktor: separated by plot -> united by plot

Jinx about herself: hard time accepting herself -> embraces herself proudly

*Okay, maybe this one was on purpose.

“MA MEILLEURE ENNEMIE” - STROMAE, POMME

[arcanetoymakerau]

So, timebomb nation. How are we feeling?

In case you missed: [check this out]

[arcanetoymakerau]

Two days seems like a really long wait...

Will we finally have a glimpse about what happened to Jinx and Ekko during the one month timeskip* between episodes 8 and 9 of season 2?

*it was confirmed by... Amanda, I think... I lost the link to the tweet, sorry.

[arcanetoymakerau]

thank you so much! 🥺 ❤️

Although, this art is rather outdated now, I changed her animal symbol (?) to a wolf, because of some lore with Kindred I added during the rework I did.

But yeah, I can totally see that on canon like you said *w*

Arcane: The Toymaker AU - Jinx's Glorious Evolution!

The "Glorious Evolution" in this AU is an almost literal meaning of evolving (low key digimon inspired). The more you rank up with your arcane embodiment using ArchTech, the more you "evolve" your connection with the Arcane itself.
