I can't figure out how to make this scroll box biggerrrrr, I mean I COULD but then it messed with the size of the container it's in, so I fixed that by giving the container a specific pixel height, and now my lil updates box just won't change. Grrrrr

Disgust has absolutely no ethical weight. If you are basing your ethical positions on the emotion of disgust you should stop, it is entirely unjustified and leads to a huge amount of harm.

The landscapes are studies, based off of screenshots. The Vulpes one used another painting as a reference
These are from the beginning of the year. I haven’t been able to get myself to do much digitally lately

so. it finally happened 🫣
this is the link to my OF!! now—it’s going to stay very casual until i get to a point i’m comfortable making more content. i’ll be posting more nudity to OF—no more nipples here on tumblr if i want my account to stay up—as well as longer videos.
i will also be posting on the drive still, of course!! videos on OF will be shorter clips and more polished videos, as well as more photo sets :))
this is a casual thing!! a good way to support me would be subbing to the OF—a lot of y’all have asked about this so here it is!!

'i hate jason grace because he thought he was worthy enough to compete with percy' I'm sorry have y'all SEEN jason. this man defeated a TITAN without weapons and his bare hands to the point the titan wanted to rise from the UNDERWORLD with the help of a GODDESS to seek vengeance over him. I think we can cut him slack for having some well deserved self respect bc I'd brag too wtf

Hello, I may be needing to close my shop (again lol) in April, so I’m having another small sale. Until April 1st, you can use the code FREESHIP for free shipping on orders over $60cad ($42usd), or you can use 10OFF for 10% off of any order! (they can’t be stacked, sorry ^^) I have mini prints for $5cad ($3.50usd) that can be sent by letter mail. There are also discount ā€œmisfitā€ prints, which are a random print with some small flaws. There’s also still two chokers available ^^ Thank you for the attention on my work recently, and hello to new followers! I’m sorry for the advertisement post. My shop has really taken a hit with the loss of Twitter and I’m honestly not sure how to peddle my stuff around anymore lmao.
šŸ’ here’s a link to my shop! šŸ’

Etadinii priest (cult of Inyamache) standing near the serpent stone, a megalithic structure predating any historical record. Contrary to first impressions and occasional jesting, this is almost definitely not a giant penis (though Some level of symbolic phallic intent is possible), and was probably shaped to cast a long shadow resembling the head and neck of a snake.
Its location is within the present-day province of Wardin adjacent to the city Jaesai, close to the border of Ephennos. A temple to Inyamache was built around it three centuries ago and greatly expanded within the past century, though the stone and the majority of the associated site remains intact.
It is most likely at least couple thousand years old, long predating the written record and having only hazy and conflicting accounts in different oral histories. Most of its original features have been worn away by erosion, but petrogylphs of a snake and rows of scimitar deer (locally extinct or possibly never extant in this area), gazelle, and aurochs remain visible (and may have been re-carved at various points in history), and there are traces of concentric rings at the 'head'. 21st century level analysis would also find traces of ochre within the lines of the petroglyphs, which were painted and repainted red for at least a couple centuries after its creation.
This is the largest single prehistoric megalithic structure located within present day Imperial Wardin (unless burial cairns constructed over slab tombs are counted) and its existence is very technically impressive, especially given the nearest possible quarry is about 50 miles away. The builders of the site were almost certainly a fairly small society of nomadic pastoralists, so the diversion of time and manpower to the quarrying and movement of this stone (and others on the site) would have been absolutely exceptional. Most similar structures from the era are significantly smaller (about human height) and found closer to quarry sources.
The stone is part of a larger site that was mostly or entirely constructed in the same period. It stands adjacent to a shallow, rounded manmade pit buffered from erosion with brick walls, encircled by smaller horizontal slabs. A single circular slab is placed in the center, which is currently referred to as the sun stone. A nearby arroyo also shows signs of modification from the same period (beyond typical redirections for irrigation), diverting any potential floodwaters away from the site to prevent inundation of the pit.
The primary purpose of this stone and the site itself is recording the winter solstice. During the solstice sunset, the snake's cast shadow approaches and perfectly engulfs the circular slab at the center, appearing to devour it. The notion that the sun is eaten by a snake (either on the winter solstice, during total eclipses, or both) appears to have been a common thread in religious belief in the region. This notion is no longer held in the Wardi sphere (the night of the solstice is the sun's yearly death and total eclipses are a concerning premature and unnatural death) but still has linguistic traces, particularly in the word for total solar eclipses being a compound form of the phrase 'swallowed sun'.
Ownership of the site has changed hands numerous times over its history, but it has been in near-continuous use by all its owners as a place to observe the winter solstice and perform related rites. Virtually all proto-Wardi monotheist animist worldviews cast the sun (or sun + sky) as God and/or the source from which all beings emanate, and most considered the winter solstice to be an exceptionally significant (and potentially dangerous) moment in the year, as the time of the sun's dying and subsequent rebirth.
Within the faith of the 7-faced god, veneration of God has shifted to focus more upon the earth (with the sun as an Extension of the earth, all parts of God's body) but the winter solstice still retains extreme religious significance- it's used in part to determine the date of the new year (which occurs on the first new Nyaram moon on or after the solstice), and is still recognized as the moment of the sun's death.
The state cult of Inyamache currently maintains this site as part of the temple grounds and uses it to measure the winter solstice in the same capacity it has for millennia, using the total engulfment of the sun stone as the signal to begin their most important rites of the year. It is understood that it's at least Possible that the sun could fail to rise the next morning if proper action is not taken to ensure its rebirth.
The serpent stone stands in contrast to the brightly plastered and painted temple (and the other prehistoric slabs on-site that have received this treatment) in remaining unaltered in the modern era. The state cult holds that the serpent stone and its associated site was created by the first men, and considers the location and the serpent stone itself to be sacred and regulated by taboo. The only people permitted to enter the site and touch the stone are Etadinii priests (who cleanse it with water once per solar month). Solar eclipses (and subsequent misfortunes attributed to them) are occasionally blamed on trespassers.
#It looks a Little less phallic in context because half of the structure (the face visible here) is flat.#The reason you can tell that it's Not specifically intended to be a phallus (unless there were wildly different attitudes#towards depictions of genitalia here 2000+ years ago) is the fact that they would have absolutely zero hesitation in making it unambiguous#It would be much less pointy#Going into the highly visible traces of prehistory here. The big ones are pathway slabs + astronomical megaliths + lots of burial#cairn mounds. There's also some cave art and TONS of petroglyphs but modern day Wardi peoples also carve petrogylphs#for ritual or magical purposes and/or for fun so it can be difficult to distinguish very old ones from contemporary ones#Some Chenahyeigi speaking peoples have contemporary cave-art producing cultural practices (besides just For Fun) in veneration of#the goddess Od (who is usually considered to live underground) and as sympathetic magic to encourage the earth#to produce crops and sustain their livestock/wild game#The Cholemdinae people is the only one that still produces standing stones as a Practice (though usually MUCH smaller and#acquired close to the placement site) as trail markers and they maintain some of their own astrological sites#Also just note I retcon stuff A Lot as a matter of better fleshing out concepts and figuring out things don't work/would work better in#different ways so if you see me contradict myself just assume the newer information I give is the current canon#There's a couple retcons in here dropping for the first time I Think irt new years

my limbus bugs mainly based on characters that may or may not show up later... and one mystery feature for your guessing fun:]
#heads up for uhhhhh really long tags#had half a mind to do a style study/imitation but gave up like. one layer in#i guess i should tag these a bit differently on the chance that they show up later in canon. ill put 'lcb' before their names#as opposed to '[character] lcb' that i use for canon characters#with this ill go back and tag for montag as well#digital stuff#colored sketch#limbus ocs#lcb avdotya#look upon my rodion clone. my beautiful son#they hired the worst photographer (me. colors are scary) in the city for their wedding no wonder that thing's cursed#that wedding dress photo was supposed to be an id photo mockup too but i just kinda gave up. started over with the next one#eyeballed the height measurements sorry if they look off...#lcb dmitri#her. well. you will hear more about her. this is a threat (joke)#lcb knauer#cheetos-flavored sinclair..#trivia: my friend's impression of knauer was ā€œi mean this in the nicest way possible but he looks like a femcelā€#personally i think hes cute#lcb beck#clair's college ex. what else is there.#these are mostly so that i can mess around and come up with some designs for funsies.. i havent given much thought to their stories#and in any case most of them are side characters so that'd be a bit difficult#that said. even for the one who's the protag in her source i havent really written anything either... oops#she's good contrast with sinclair the way she's both taller than meursault and also the worst brawler youve ever met#if anyone guesses her source i'll edit this post with a tag:D#well that was fun! i'll probably do another handful of sketches and then never draw these guys again#disclaimer: i got the german off google translate so if there're any glaring mistakes please let me know#i dont know russian either but i got the subtitles from their names so it should be ok.. avdotya's is just rodion's also.#let me know if i got anything wrong still. thank you
