f1 au save me

[bg3nerd]

Okay so I ended up finishing the buttons for Driven by @nivasichakano!!! I had some time during the hour and a half delay on the Belgium GP today since I’d already slotted out that time to work on them and it ran super long.

Okay so notessss:

Avernus : it’s the same wheel design as Weave but with a different center and I used the Ferrari colour palette, I just thought that would be cool

Selune : drawing this moon and making that colour palette almost killed me istg but it’s so worth it and honestly one of my favourites

Bane : it took fricken forever and I redrew it like 40 times but the out come is just *chefs kiss* also I colour picked the colours from Gortash’s gauntlet and outfit and added the purple gem to match his gem so that’s pretty sick

Shar : I already posted this one but I realized i did it in English so I went back and fixed it

Now that im done the digital part I just need to wait till im home so I can get them pressed out into actual buttons! This unfortunately won’t be for about two weeks because im not in the same country as my button press. On good news Driven has me on such a creative rampage now where I’ve realized that I have some spare purple t-shirts and access to my local library’s cricut so I might make a weave tshirt with all the different sponsors and make all the sponsors baldurs gate three references cause obviously (if anyone has any ideas for like baldurs gate three Easter egg sponsors I’m trying to compile as many ideas as possible specifically ones that could alone with weave idk @nivasichakano if you thought about that lmao it’s very random)

Once again if anyone wants a set I can ship them out for free once I’m home and have them all pressed out so you can contact me on discord, my username is : @astrid30743

OKAY so first couple pin designs for Driven by @nivasichakano are done! (You gotta click on the pictures to see the whole thing it’s kinda weird)

Sooooo some notes:

Number one I can’t picture things in my head so I kinda winged it to the description if anyone has ideas on making it better I will take it.

Weave Racing - ITS CROOKED AND ITS KILLING ME, I can’t fix it though so I’ll have to straighten it out when I print it to press it into a button

Lathander : 10/10 joke I love the The Animals so that one was fun to do

Shar : there wasn’t a logo description so I combined the symbol for shar (dark circle with purple boarder) and the symbol that shadowheart has so I hope that’s chill

P1? : I came up with these two at like 3 AM and I was like “if I was in this universe and cheered for this team what button would I make to wear to a race and possibly give to the drivers?” And so it was born. Which might possibly be one of the nerdiest things I’ve ever done.

Astarion and Gale : same idea as the other one just more professional looking and with the Driver numbers and some little 8-sided stars to match the weave logo. Making Astarions eyes gray was a pain but SO WORTH IT. I also made Gale 2 because I could and I tried to do Gales scars but it looked like ass so I scraped it.

I’m on a train right now and it’s SO HOT and qualifying isn’t stressing me outttt so this is all I’m gonna do today but I have another 6 hour train ride and 12 hours worth of plane time coming up in the next two weeks so up next will be the rest of the Team Buttons and a few of the other random designs I came up with.

Also if anyone wants a set I can ship them out for free once I’m home and have them all pressed out so you can contact me on discord, my username is : @astrid30743

Eyes that speak what words never could

[bg3nerd]

Such beautiful eyes, it would be a shame a tadpole crawled inside them.

WHAT THE FLIP THATS STUNNING

To be honest - this was done in one go. So you can estimate how much I am into this AU. I have no words how insanely good this fic is - I do have, however, a time lapse of the almost 6 hrs of insanity that went into this ;) Read Driven by @nivasichakano <3

It's funny how fast I fell for the F1 AU written by @nivasichakano.

But also, I am deeply grateful that it catapulted me out of an art slump and right into a manic creation phase where I'm not afraid of experimenting with my style again <3 Go, read Driven on AO3

[bg3nerd]

Driven - Monaco. Fic so gud this artist recolored a racecar. And drew a background. This IS an advertisement. (No, honestly, I'm a nsfw artist mostly because I don't have to draw complex stuff - but oh look where I am at now...) Go, read Driven by @nivasichakano.

Pj party for the gang <3

[BG3 PRINTS] - [COMMISSIONS]

(Please don't spoil me act 3, I've still not got around to play it-)

Everytime I go to camp to clock in for the night, and a good 4 out of 6 of these fuckers go to sleep wearing *leather* outfits- I understand it from a 'this is a video game of course they don't change clothes to go sleeping' perspective..... But on the other hand I slept once in leather pants and that was one of the worst experiences of my life, so to think these people do it voluntarily everynight- freaks. All of them.

So I gave them pyjamas :D that was a lot of fun ! Also I like when characters have a more diverse builds and sizes, so I killed two birds w one stone and drew what the gang looks like in my heart <3 and of course I made a quick little line up !

A lot of yapping about the pj choices and process below vvv

Gale : fancy depressed wizard gets a fancy bathrobe type get up ! I don't think this man was getting dressed a lot in that sad year post his breakup, so why not invest in a comfy cool pj he can slip on in the morning feeling like it kinda counts as dressing up ! And I get that they didn't exactly pack before getting kidnapped by aliens, but Gale is a wizard I'm sure he can just reach into a pocket dimension where he stores some of his belongings (ala my tes mage !) or something

Astarion : I don't think astarion owns many clothes. He isn't wealthy, and well.... Let's not talk about Cazador in the fun pyjama party post- so his ruffled shirt untucked from a pair of looser cotton or silk pants it is ! Also I learned that elves are typically shorter on average in dnd and that's great, that's perfect, that's so funny, I can just picture him insisting this is true (which it is).... And then enters Halsin fjdjdk anyway

Halsin : I just know in my heart that man sleep in his bear form. It's when he's most comfortable, and he doesn't need to talk to other people when sleeping so why not. Also comfy bed mate :) ! Other option is completely nude (yes I forgot to include him in the lineup, sue me but I'm too tired to re open photoshop rn-)

Shadowheart : this is my art, and if I want the resident goth girly to be in a cute little nightgown I can >:( she gets lace and everything let me be a lesbian !!! Also she small and sturdy

Wyll : a slight variation of his canon camp clothes :) made his top less skintight, and once again changed the texture from leather to something less terrible to sleep in seriously why are all these people committed to this lifestyle-

Lae'zel : no pjs, a githyanki must be ready for battle 24/7 only the weak wear comfy clothes and don't commit to sleeping in leather pants and leather underwear. She's a freak and I love her dearly

Karlach : she deserves the best pyjamas of them all : topless in underwear. Nothing comfier than that and it's not like she'll get cold :) also she wears it very well what can I say fjdjdkd

I started working on the lineart like a month ago alongside a commission that I really didn't like working on- so anytime I got work done for the commission (btw not from someone online so it's none of you tumblrinas), I would reward myself with adding more shit to the bg3 drawing djdjdkk which resulted in a lot of details and clutter, that I didn't want to start coloring because that would be a nightmare to figure out and very long to do, so I would continue adding shit instead of starting colors- and the circle kept turning. Also 10 hands..... So this took a while to get right fjdjdk

But on the bright side, it's the most detailed illustrations I've done yet and I'm really proud of it (especially all the little story elements I could include <3)

you put up with what you think you deserve, and the things you want you resent

Finished Feyre’s dressser and decided to add some extra details ✨

[bg3nerd]

Made a little header for the upcoming part of IBTTW, 'Rising of a Wave', which will be coming soon.

June's been a bit hectic, but I'm hoping to return to a normal schedule next month. Thank you all for your patience and for the kind comments and messages. <3
