I have a lot of scatterbrained design notes for each of them but generally I wanted them to look similar to their original designs but with different themes. I also imagine that they have the same inscribing tools as their original counterparts but just use them differently (i.e. Magnificus paints animals, Leshy takes pictures of people as they're dying/about to die, I'm not sure what the magic equivalent for P03 would be besides maybe a spellbook that copies the essence of things, and Grimora's quill would either "write" code or write directly onto the hardware of robots).
#i initially wanted to finish these for inscryptober but stuff got in the way#misc design notes erm#leshy's death design is inspired by the actual folklore leshy and the leshens from the witcher games#i remember reading somewhere that the folklore leshy incorporates animal bones and tree bark into his own body#so that's where the main inspiration came from#the markings on grimora are meant to be a combination of patterns on porcelain china and the patterns on motherboards#p03's components aren't actually attached to anything and just float around as needed#also its different functions are powered by the mox crystals in its body#magnificus already looks like a big fuzzy animal to me so i just leaned into that#he probably has a bunch of small animals living in his fur without him even realizing#magnificus#leshy#p03#grimora#g0lly#inscryption#my art#scrybeswap

Luna as the Snow Maiden and dr Klim as Father Frost as a treat. happy new year!!! below the cut is a ver without the strange light
#so i thought of this because in eastern folklore the Snow Maiden#(or Snegurochka. pick your poison)#is a girl made out of snow#in some versions she was made by lonely grandparents! heeh ahha#like yeah a'right she's also known as Father Frosts (or Granpa Moroz. pick your poison!) (grand)daughter.#zero escape#vlr#virtue's last reward#luna vlr#sigma klim#dr klim#(?)#yeaHH this is a bit messy#and they also lack the snow patterns#buuuuuuut i'm toooooo lazy and i think they kinda ruin the art#because they are almost invisible on light blue robes#and here they… aren't#pelmesh risuet

The tapestry test print finally arrived!!! I'm really happy how it came out :D Since this piece is going to be remade this will most likely be the only time this version will be available! The pre-0rder form is also ready go, so now I'm just waiting for the rain to stop so I can take some nice pictures of all the available designs outside!

🪡🧵Romanian women have been coding signs for ages. Their threads bind apotropaic symbols into scrolls of fabrics and garments, according to complex systems, which have been developing since the Neolithic ages. In this pocket size comics collection I tried to gather bits of the pixel's long forgotten story. The rough English version of the 36 page publication is available here >>> https://issuu.com/sorivazelina/docs/mostrar2_eng
To flip through the Romanian version please visit the exhibition, at the Peasant Museum in Bucharest, open till the 9th of January 2025. It was built as a reflection on a unique anonymous textile piece, discovered in the archive of the ASTRA Museum in Sibiu. The hyper-sensorial works, leading up to this marvel of over 200 embroidered motifs, belong to artists such as Aurelie Morillas, Marlene Herberth, Marin Raica, Sillyconductor, Anamaria Lungu, Atelier Vrac, all brought together by the Dala Foundation and Ovidiu Daneș, who has been saving the local architectural, intangible and natural heritage, together with his wife Luminița, for more than a decade, also via the CUCA festival.

first drawing of the year :> drew a character i had in my brain for some time, based on Mokosh. now i kind of want to make more in this series lol
#oc#original character#slavic folklore#slavic mythology#dark fantasy#witchcore#witchblr#anyway yap time#i chose mostly elements from polish folkore/history but its something i tend to default to when i dont know what to do for a character#so i dont feel justified tagging it as polblr#but i will explain regardless#the pattern on the sides is a perebor pattern specifically taken from włodawa. its supposed to be symmetrical but i freehanded it so yknow#dress was inspired by mourning dress of pelagia popielowa. i wanted to use it somewhere ever since i saw it 2 yrs ago#sadly it doesnt really fit i think so ill have to reuse it for another design#fern flower siege

Still pondering over what buttons to put on it BUT my evermore cardigan is done!!!
(Kitted on 5.5mm needles using Stylecraft DK Highland Heathers yarn in Granite & DK Special yarn in Bottle with the same pattern as my folklore cardigan)
#knitting#evermore cardigan#it's soooooooo pretty#I really am gonna need someone to stop me from knitting a cardigan in every colour#and like I still adore my folklore cardigan but I think the pattern definitely looks better in DK weight yarn#as opposed to 4ply

sat down and finally gave gullmar some fresh fits that he deserves......
#oc#original character#tomte#folklore#oc: gullmar#origin wise gullmar actually isnt a pinebill tomte (which is what most gnomes around the vätterunda area are)#but he's from the midlands front which contains a mixture of different tomtar from all over the country#(there are more forest tomtar there though just bcs of where its located)#so i tried incorporating a bit of a mixture of tomte vibes in his clothes..#like curved patterns from harefoots +arrow patterns/colours from oakclaws/pinebills#pareidolia tag#also sorry for just like character design stuff lately ive been artblocked to fawk!!! -.-

Sticking to the subject of Tatomir , here are some patterns
I did these two pieces some time ago as patterns and posted them on my Society6 to see if they would work, and had varying results :p
I did find out that I quite like drawing Tatomir in this style due to his simple shapes I don't have as tough a time with lineless artwork of him as I do with human characters.
The sheep was derived from the sheep surrounding Tatomir. I just find them cute <3

☾ * . Firefox. ☄︎ 。 * .
Basesd on Finnish lore, Tullikettu, also known as a firefox, is a mysterious and whimsical at the same time. At night, his fur lights up like fire as he trots across the snow, his tail sparking and creating the Northern Lights.
My firefox is doing a big stretch, with the galaxy and Northern Lights within him. The small backstitch detail i of the Vulpecula constellation, which is known as the "little fox."
Find this design in my shop! You can also find this at local needlework shops, or ask them to stock it for you! I'd love to see if you stitch it!
Stitched on Charcoal aida by Wichelt and DMC threads.
