Big recent art dump since apparently Tumblr is letting me post pictures now?!

Pet portraits, dog illustrations for my friend and I's pet grooming business, and lil OC comic practice snippets since it's kinda cringe rn with dialogue

[ars-a-tergum]

(Part 2 of design dump)

More supporting characters, Flaga and Nyxa being Aura's parents, Nova being the foster and raising Aura.

Lillium is just kinda...there. She's Eurion's sister and a jealous one at that since he is next in line to rule.

(Part 1 of design dump)

OC designs/fake covers for (VERY distant) graphic novel- Aura, the main character, and some of her friends and such in her clan at the beginning of her story.

headcanon that Mizu’s swords break because she is bad at making swords

also Mizu could have been a graphic designer in another life. she uses orange glasses to cancel out her blue eyes so she clearly understands color theory, and she designed a sick ass logo for herself when she was like 12

Sometimes shipping is hard when you like a paring others don't. One ship dynamic i always have a odd take on is enemies to lovers..what can I say, I'm new to it.

I see people ship these two

I heard people bash them for being toxic and having those Shippers around them.but why do i like Taigen and Mizu. The biggest argument is taigen used to pick on her as kid.

The screen shot has the creator of this scene and will be kept so you all will know who made this great scene from Blue eye samurai.

This is a deleted scene from the show, so apparently, spoilers for Blue eye samurai, Taigen used to sneak food for Mizu. If you don't know Taigen was a massive bully for Mizu and thats what everyone pointed out.

Its disappointing they got rid of this scene cause it showed he cared about her as a kid.
