I think people should gas up their own OCs more
What's a mannerism or habit that your OC has that you just love, that is really interesting or easily overlooked, or something uniquely personal to them?
#Vanquish bounces on her hooves a lot!#i like it because well its a combo of: she's really fucking old and it's funny and cute#it's like#a habit when she's excited emotional or bored#and also because she sometimes stretches up on her hooves for tall people#especially the githyanki when she gets to be around them a lot#but i also like it because it's a disarming tactic she learned to be instinctive over the years to make people forget just how#deadly she is. and also as part of her charm and deception and way with words :)#vanquish tag

Do you have tips on how you draw mind flayers? I cannottttt get a handle on that anatomy (especially the head) and your art is so impressive! 😁❤️
of course! I threw this together pretty quickly, so it's not exactly comprehensive, but I hope it helps (and please, feel free to ask if you need clarification on anything)
I take a fair amount of creative leeway with how I draw illithids (and god knows that has been a process, please know I'm honored that anyone would ask this lmao), but also keep in mind that no two are the same. For example, I draw Thyneron and the Emperor broadly similarly, but some key differences that I keep in mind are that Thyneron is both shorter and more slender than the Emperor, and in turn, I prefer to draw the Emperor slightly more built (larger biceps, broader shoulders, etc).
However--I do also have a ripped model from the game that I use for reference. It's a fully configured fbx file (shoutout to @arcandoria for both supplying me the model, and helping me figure out how to get it to work in clip studio!), so below I've included some basic head angles, as well as a few trickier ones
As always, reference reference reference, and never be afraid to trace things for practice. I spent a lot of time just tracing the Emperor's head shape to get my hand and arm used to the motions of drawing something so alien. I rarely need to do so today, but if I'm drawing the Emperor's head from a particularly weird angle, you bet I'm loading the model in and grabbing exactly what I need. Thank you so much for asking this (and for the compliment <3), I hope this is useful!

I drew Jah’za in a swimsuit! She’d definitely go for one that’s more simple. Definitely not concerned with fashion like Dahlia lol

'Take me with you' Vanquish had said, already knowing the answer. 'I take what I want,' the grip on her hand, tighter, 'when I want.' 'Yet you stand. Do nothing.' Voss' grip, tighter still. The moon cold. His breath hot between her eyes.

creating and consuming art while the world is on fire around you so you can remember what it’s like to be a human and why it’s important to keep going and feeling connected to the generations before you who did the exact same thing during tumultuous times and future generations who will do the exact same thing because art is what unites all of us regardless of circumstances and struggle and war and peace and stress and happiness feels like this

Thank you so much for the tag my love !!!
Here's Van's core :3 a lot of dark academia and space and dusk skies showed up. And Aston Martin Vanquish's LOL






I imagine the apothecary shelf to be something she'd actually have, since she makes a lot of her own tinctures. And ofc, the sea is special to her and Voss.
The castle, remniscent of her adventures and life. The skies - speaks for itself. And the mistletoe night/dusk picture of the tree and river is just...I love the vibe. Very Vanquish moody-esque alone at night communing with Caiphon, or keeping intrusive Nezarr at bay.

This was fun as hell...well kinda 😅 because I wanted to pick more than 6 for my OC Valerya. 😭
Rules are simple: go to Pinterest and search "your OC's name + core", post six photos. Then tag 6 people!

I tag @whiskeyskin and @luna-struck and whoever else wants to join!

#vanquish tag#doll parts tag#tiefling#dnd#bg3#art for me#happy tag#makes me think of an art portrait Orpheus would get commissioned of her with all his cash moneys and she'd hate it and hide it away#but voss would find it one day and he'd just stare at it for hours like that meme#like he'd unlocked a new emotion

Lae'zel getting used to the egg.
Anybody else noticed that Lae'zel is tanning leather by her tent? I wonder if that is a hobby of hers or if young githyanki are also expected to bring back some resources besides the ilithid head for their graduation.
