Hanseo deserves to be happy and alive wearing comfortable 80s clothes I said what I said
#vincenzo#vincenzo cassano#hanseo#jang han seo#jang hanseo#vinseo#? I half ship it in fanon so there are vinseo deets if ur into that#spoilers from now on#I literally cried for 20 mins when hanseo died he was so miserable in the show and assoon as he started getting any semblance of happiness B#AM ded#I am very into the idea that after a lifetime of wearing restrictive brand new suits Hanseo gets into comfortable second hand and vintage#clothes and likes the freedom of old clothes and styles because you don't have to upkeep current trends at all#and he likes the idea of saving old discarded clothes and giving them a second chance at life just like he was :)#art#my art#digital art#digital illustration#also soz for disappearing I finished school and my mental health was not in a good place so I'm back! hopefully gonna do more regular posts#kdrama

My first three inktobers feat. Xie Lian and Hua Cheng’s ashes for ‘crystal’, Vincenzo in a booralro suit for ‘suit’ and Wei Wuxian for ‘vessel’ because yllz wwx was kinda a vessel for resentful energy
#xie lian#vincenzo#wei wuxian#tgcf#the untamed#vincenzo cassano#heaven official's blessing#inktober#marker#texta#texta art#my art#art#sketching#drawing#sketchbook#trying to get good at posing and drawing again#textas are low stress so so good to draw with#I recon xie lians pose could have a clearer silhouette but he was my first so I forgive him#wei ying#tian guan ci fu#sorry for the huuuuuuuuge hiatus I am one (1) month from finishing school and am stressed & depressed so not much art lol#texta ink technically counts for inktober....right.....right..???????#the stippling on xie lians outfit is meant to be like embroidery or something#I like the idea of him picking up practical skills that he ends up using recreationally#vincenzo looks like a reg guy so to spice it up a bit for myself I did some foreshortening bc normally I'm to chicken to do any crazy angles#mdzs#mo dao zu shi#mxtx

hey bestie just want you to know that ur art has inspired me to write a lotr/silm/cql crossover featuring the blue wizards who went east and were never heard from again and half elf lan clan
so like. thanks for the inspo 💕
Thank you so much!!!!!!!! omg silm/tolkien in general is so special to me and I had no idea that those drawings would reach anyone apart from me ahahaha because they were so self indulgent so I am so glad that you liked them
The concept sounds sick I love blue wizard shit bc there are so many possibilities in fanfic due to us knowing literally nothing about them apart from where they came from. Half elf lan clan too!!!!!!! I can defs see the potential and if u want pls send me a link to the fic when u are ready!!!!! would love to see it im always down for tolkien cql crossovers <3

appreciation post for Lan Xichen and his objectively best outfit
#Lan Xichen is the second best dressed character in the untamed#the first being jc of course#it is so hard to find any pictures of this outfit at all#I had to go off a ref from a fucking gif set#also fuck the pattern on his outer robe it took so long to draw#Nie Mingjue im blaming u#art#my art#digital art#digital illustration#illustration#lan xichen#lan huan#zewu jun#the untamed#mdzs#cql#mao dao zu shi#mdzs fanart#cql fanart#fanart#the untamed fanart#also the dragon headpiece thing fuck that too there are zero (0) good pictures of it#I think it’s his outfit from the banquet after the sunshot campaign? Might be wrong tho
