i am pain. that poll is happening at the worst possible time i cri. it is giving me so many freaking drawing ideas and i am incapable of drawing any of them. wrists why
I finally got around to making vanilla-sized portraits for submas! There's no HD Portraits support for 1.6 just yet, so I cleaned up their original portraits to match Stardew's color palette a bit better (so much hue-shifting...) since I couldn't really record events with lazilly downscaled portraits. I'm still working on Elesa's right now and I still need to get to everyone else, but it's chugging along...
Anyways, here's Ingo and Emmet's new portrait sheets!
This was in equal parts interesting and painful. I already had a lot of respect for those who do more realistic artwork now but I have even more now; y'all are way stronger than me (ˉ▽ˉ;)...
Thank you to everyone for the input on the original post!
\( ̄︶ ̄*\))
oh but I gotta see "something sappy and pretty" please oh please
There you go, I cleaned it up for you! (I’ll figure out a way to make it PrettyTM eventually, see how that’s been the sticking point on this one? That is why it’s been a Wip for so long T^T)
On an unrelated note, I completely lost the ability to see any recent post in the bobadin tag, does anyone have any idea what I could do to remedy that???
I thought it would be fun to try designing some coats of arms/heraldry for the Centaurworld characters! Here's the Mysterious Woman, the General, and the Nowhere King.
More thoughts on each below the read more-
Mysterious Woman: Probably the simplest, but I think that fits for royalty? Hers is split right down the middle to reflect unity and two halves. The yellow shape is actually the head of the Key in spear/staff form! Happy coincidence that it looks kind of like a lily or fleur de lis to me!
The General: I think the General would probably fight under the Mysterious Woman's banner and use her existing coat of arms, because he was a nobody before marrying in? I also think appropriating royal symbols would lend him authority, but I wanted to design something for him anyway.
If he did want his own crest (or perhaps a logo for his army?), I'm not sure if I could see him incorporating elk or deer in any way... On one hand, I don't think he'd want any reminders or association with his true nature/past. But I could also see him egotistically liking something that reflects the narrative he's crafted in his mind, symbolizing what he views as triumphing over the lesser part of himself.
The Nowhere King: He gets two because I couldn't decide which vibe I liked more. Especially in AU contexts, I tend to imagine the Nowhere King leaning into the 'King' part of his title and styling himself as a ruler over the minotaurs- viewing them as his subjects and trying to create a place where they can belong, legitimizing their 'kingdom'. A flag featuring their kind would make sense to me, but I also really liked the idea of a crest featuring his antlers, because they're so distinctive. I think the green leaves would only feature in a more peaceful AU.
