Incredibly specific commission for a lad named Trister (no socials)

Love it when a client trusts me to draw something dumb for them.

Okay so the thing that I love about the Guild — inarguably a bad organization — is that the Guild Masters are all just fucking, coworkers. Yeah sure they're a propagandist, a rogue necromancer, a monster hunter, Boston Dynamics, the dictionary definition of police brutality, Sir Civilian Casualties, a supernatural entity masquerading as a lawyer, and an evil wizard but they all also have to go to the company picnic. They have the same boss. Everyone has to take the same Soulstone safety and compliance training at the beginning of the year, every year.

It's just funny to me to think about the element of mundanity involved in this being their job. Some other Malifaux characters are forces of nature or evil spirits or otherworldly monsters or are motivated by individual desire. These guys? Yeah, it's their corporate job. Sorry I have to show up to beat your ass, but it's what I'm getting paid for. Yeah, benefits are great.

They're also all bad people, because of course they are, they've chosen to work for the imperialist colonizing rainbow capitalist military. Boston Dynamics and the Monster Hunter are kinda the most decent, on account of having the least harmful jobs. This is one of Malifaux's highest selling points, imo, which is that each Faction is awful but also not entirely in the wrong. It's a nice balance, fitting for a wargame.

Huggy as the Devil.

I expect this one to be considered odd, but I can't think of another character in Malifaux that encompasses the "everything" of Nexus. The berzerker husks, but the scientists. Kainhearse and the Ahool. All of the Eyes and Ears from their varied walks of life.

Questions I think to myself a lot when confronted with certain kinds of Online Posting:

Do you want a better world, or do you want revenge on those you think aren’t doing enough to improve it?

Do you want a more just world, or do you want to see bad people suffer merciless punishment?

Do you want a less oppressive world, or do you want the reins of power for yourself?

Do you want to do the right thing, or do you want to feel righteous?

[es-space]

Yes. I may be up to nonsense. Sketchy nonsense. We'll see how long it runs, maybe someday I'll clean it up and ink it. And ... something about the page I smeared hand cream on...

I looked up the word on the green one and came up with some horror movie that was a pretty strong transmortis vibes.

The lastest SPS episode makes foot-fetish-nighmare sound like Som'er.

Writing Malifaux lists is fun

Bringing back some of mt painted miniatures posting - WIP of the King's Hand from Wyrd Games' The Other Side!

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

re: that last post, ive said it before and ill say it again: no one deserves to die (deserving is fake and death is bad) but some people need to be stopped and choose to make death the only way to stop them

Refuge.

Finally bothered to run this through my scanner. (It's oversized, so I had to scan it in halves and stitch it together.) No real point to this, I just wanted to play with contrasting colors in my shadows.

The church bells are ringing from beneath. And as the bridegroom staggers back, aghast, he sees the angels part, and his promised bride comes forward to the head of the procession. Swept inland upon new towering legs, smiling as she strides forwards to meet him.
