“If I had known that I was always doomed to lose him so young…That there was nothing I could do to change his fate…” Dream swallowed and when he spoke again the unshakeable calm of his voice wavered and finally broke, “I would have told him how I loved him, each day when he woke and each night while he dreamed. I would have embraced Eurydice as if she were my own daughter. I would have danced at their wedding.”
“I know,” Hob tightened his arms around Dream. “I know you would have.”

This fic absolutely destroyed me! One of my favourites! Love it! 💕
I had it marked for later and avoided to read it because at the time it was already considerably long and I didn't really have the time for it (I have no self-control I'm hopeless binge reader so it would totally fuck up my schedule). I decided to read it not long ago aaaand then I caught up... to chapter 18 😭. WHY WHYYY WHAT A TERRIBLE TIME TO CATCH UP!?!??!!!
The day is over,
and it is time to let the mind, soul and body rest.
You did such a wonderful work today.
Now get yourself a well deserved good night ☽
So I learned something a while back that I’m surprised I didn’t learn earlier:
Pyrography fades considerably in even bright indoor lighting: specifically, gallery lighting. Doesn’t even need to be sunlight, I guess any intense sunlight within the span of a year will drastically lighten the burned in marks.
So this piece suffered after its time on display, and it was only today that I set about trying to remedy it by going back in and darkening the tones and deepening the outlines. The final resting place of this piece will have to be a more dimly lit wall or corner until I can think of some good archival method that won’t crack or discolor over time.
The top of the piece has yet to be touched; you can see the contrast with where I’ve been working in the middle/bottom.
how do you get such amazing skin texture in blender? love your blog so much btw
Thank you! 🩵
The short answer is what I’ve been telling everyone who asks which is Surface Blur in Photoshop. The long answer involves this Golyhawhaw tutorial lmao.
+ A random video of me editing Donny's skin in real time:
I always imagine Minhyeok as this guy, with a prettier face than most girls, like a young master that picks flowers kind of face.
Anyway, this is just a rough painting so it is messy, if I have more time like this I will practice drawing more. Cause it would be great if I could draw some headcanons I have for Hell's worldbuilding.
