A halfbody I did featuring my personal oc, Lucille Sinclair. This piece is far from perfect in my eyes, but for the longest time, when it comes to my human art, my perfectionism has called me to struggle with making any sort of personal art of my ocs outside of references. I've been trying to break out of that mindset. So even if it isn't perfect- I'm happy I've made it<3

I also did a timelapse for this piece that I'm really excited to share.

More info about Lucy under the cut!

Lucille inhabits an original world/story of my own creation- a dark gunpowder fantasy with gothic Victorian (and other historical) influences loosely based off of Bloodborne, Elden Ring, ect. The setting is a large, port city called "Grimmstone" (Which has been rattling around in my head since I was 15). Lucy is a brilliant Doctor (gifted both academically and magically) from a noble family whose well regarded amongst the citizens because of her apparent altruism- often providing medical aide to those in need and expecting nothing in return. A reputation that strengthened when a mysterious and deadly plague began to spread throughout Grimmstone's lower quarters and Lucille was one of the only doctors who were willing to aid the afflicted.

However, unbeknownst to all, Lucille is actually a witch whose been studying and actively practicing black magic- Necromancy being her chief interest. and one of the reasons she was so keen to provide assistance was to acquire new test subjects to continue said studies.

You can read a bit more about her on her Toyhouse, if anyone is interested!

Physically I'm in bed, but mentally I'm walking dramatically down the long corridor of my Gothic Victorian mansion with my black cape blowing in the wind of my majesticness.
