Tennotober 2022: Day 21 to 27.

🩸𝗩𝗢𝗜𝗗𝗧𝗢𝗨𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗗 - 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘂𝗲 (Oὐλόμενος)🩸 Of death, blood, and conceptual embodiment. Will you escape Void's embrace?

Full comic ⬇️

Script was originally written in 22nd Dec 2022, but I couldn't work on it until September due to work and life events. 2023's tennocon really got me motivated to start and it has been a very slow process to get it completed as I rely on commissions and work (I LOVE YOU CUSTOMERS)

I am extremely thankful for those of you who have been patient to see it completed! Thanks again to my patrons and commissioners who have allowed me to still work on this on my free time with less financial concerns!!!!

I have much more planned for this story, but for now I hope you liked this short episode!! I've been spinning for the last week because I've been so anxious to post this 😵‍💫

This is kind of a love letter to Digital Extremes because I've been wanting to get into a personal project based on Warframe for the longest time (even before I started doing Destiny art) and I am ecstatic that I finally got the chance to do so. ALSO SELF INDULGING CONTENT WOO 🕺

Anyone else realize how much of a contrast there is between the Void on the Zariman and in Albrecht's labs?

Like, the Zariman itself is practically infested, inside and out, with void energy and ruin. It is a mess, and yet for all of it the actual influence of the Void is minimal, is it not? Sure, theres the Thrax and the Angels but aside from that the Void is more passive there than in Albrechts labs.

Speak of the devil (get it?), tmitw and the Void take a complete 180 in the new tileset. Not only is the whole thing a lot more neat and tidy, with orderly rooms and even drones to make sure any chaos we cause is immediately repaired. The contrast between the Void infested areas and the labs themselves is also very clear, with actual cutoff and melding points, rather than the wild growth of the Zariman's Void. Now add in the fact that the Murmur is a very active force and you can see just how opposite the two locations are.

What intrigues me the most however, are the thematics of both regions. The Zariman, for all of its sleek, futuristic design, clearly has an undertone of religion. From the Organs used in the themes, to the name of the themes themselves, to the focus on song and choir and angels, it all implies a biblical view of things.

Now contrast that with Albrecht's labs, which feature a much more...grounded view of things. From the the fact that these are literal research labs, to the constant references to the human body, bodyparts in everything from enemy design, to the name of the hub, to even the Jahu (Form) gargoyle, everything speaks of science and nature through a more...scientific lens.

Duviri too, kind of falls under this view, but instead of being science or religion, its more along the lines of culture, fiction and just overall creativity, which really makes me wonder where theyre gonna take this with 1999 and beyond...

So yea, just some thoughts I had recently that I felt like sharing.
