that new perpetua video game looks great! veile is such a cool character :)

(anyway i have been really enjoying perpetua so far and it inspired me to go basically learn most of blender from scratch to model some characters, starting with veile!! all hand painted modeled etc.)

some more shots:

[larena]

Its so well made its perfect

Found these old screenshots from when I was going through some of the 3D files from the first game, and I do admire the dedication to give Thaos sick robes when you can barely make out the details in the actual game

[larena]

Thinking about Servant of Death (Berath's Council of Stars quest) and how the Ethik Nol and Ovates are both religious groups that don't actually worship the gods. And Berath asks you to assassinate their leaders.

And then thinking about how Thaos talks about the pre-Engwithan "heathens" they wiped out and supplanted and their "barbaric" practices.

Just interesting. Interesting quest there, Berath. No no, yeah. It's about them staying out of the cycle for too long. Uh-huh. Definitely.

a good idea

It’s always so funny to me in Doctor Who when the Doctor says to their human companion “oh I’m a Time-Lord. We are basically the most evolved race in the universe and above petty human squabbles and discriminations” but then you watch any story set on Gallifrey and it’s like:

Time-Lord 1: “If I was loomed into a Dromeian house I would kill myself and not regenerate”

Time-Lord 2: “Rassilon yeah. Anyway are you helping with Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’s seventeenth corrupt political scheme this week?”

Time-Lord 1: “Of course lol”

Shobogan: “I’m starving and my people are unfairly treated by the Time Lords”

Austin flips the script and makes Keith improv a list of things this time (and also helps) (mild realis spoilers)

Austin (as Curly): We've dealt with…how many bad things have we dealt with over the years, Wellaway?

Keith (as Wellaway): 12.

Austin (as Curly): 12. You name the first six. I'll name the second six.

Art: 12 things.

Austin (as Curly): We'll go back and forth. [Art laughs]

Keith (as Wellaway): Okay. There was quicksand.

Austin (as Curly): There was the vampire.

Keith (as Wellaway): There was the slow sand.

Austin (as Curly): There was the maelstrom.

Keith (as Wellaway): There was the… 

Keith: [chuckles] No, that’s bad. 

(as Wellaway): There was the, uh, really really tall tree that spit acorns.

Austin (as Curly): There was the little mosquito swarm that stuck around for a year!

Keith (as Wellaway): There was the witch who wanted to make a house out of clowns. [Art laughs]

Austin (as Curly): There was that annoying reporter.

Art: Who wanted to make a house out of clowns.

Keith (as Wellaway): There was the strangely alluring reporter.

Austin (as Curly): There was the just right reporter, who we thought was on our side! And then they went and published that story—you know the one—filled with lies.

Keith: How many is that so far?

Austin: 10.

Keith: 6? 10?

Austin: Yeah.

Keith: Okay. My last one, then…no, not my last one. My second to last one is—

Austin: No, I think it’s your last one, 'cause we're doing 12.

Keith: 10, then you 11, then me 12.

Austin: You're doing 11.

Keith: Oh, I'm doing 11 now. Okay.

Art: You went first, Keith.

Keith: Okay.

(as Wellaway): So then there was, uh, the very first problem that we ever had was the other lord who tried to feed us to some other thing.

Austin: Fuck! You took mine. [Keith and Art laugh]

(as Curly): Well, and then there were the space pirates.

Keith (as Wellaway): Okay. And we'll say, on the count of three, what the thing was that the first lord tried to feed us to. [Art laughs]

Austin (as Curly): Which we both have a good memory of! Real clear memory.

Keith (as Wellaway): Yes. Three—

Art: Oh, it was an incident.

Austin: Yeah.

Keith: It was an incident. It was in the newspaper.

Austin: Uh huh.

Keith: It was actually how we met one of the first three reporters.

Austin: Yep.

Keith (as Wellaway): All right. Three, two, one. Gi—

Austin (as Curly): Shark.

Keith (as Wellaway): Yep.

Art: Giant shark? Is that what you…?

Keith (as Wellaway): [simultaneously] Giant shark.

Austin (as Curly): [simultaneously] Giant shark. That’s right. 

Austin: I almost said giraffe, which would have worked also. [Keith laughs] Gih-raffe.

Art: Gee-raffe.

Austin: Gee-raffe shark. The giraffe shark. 

Art: Oh, I remember the giraffe shark.

Austin (as Curly): Longest neck you ever saw on that thing.

Keith (as Wellaway): Yes. Sharpest teeth, longest neck.

Austin (as Curly): And if we could have gotten through all that, we can get through a lord who tries to feed people to pigs.

friends at the table just began their new season called perpetua and it's like a really excellent point to jump into the show. I've been following the show for a really really long time and I think you should come with

totally new main campaign, you don't need to have seen the previous seasons

[larena]

This is CLASSIC flegg behavior!

[larena]

to know how it ends

and still begin to sing it again

as if it might turn out this time

[larena]

Just learned that Cassian and K-2SO meeting was already in a comic, and now I'm so upset because this is so much better than "idk throw him in the truck"

Like WHY is it.... why is the vibe... Uh... why's it.... uh.... hm why's it kinda... 🏳️‍🌈

There's going to be a conclave to elect a new Pope.

I hope it doesn't-- OH MY GOD

All my Veilguard dishonored portraits in one post! Next couple projects are full illustrations so it will be a while before they're done, but I might return to do some other dragon age portraits and give some love to my favs from the previous games :)
