Barbarian Rage (born out of love)

#ttrpg #dnd #ocs #gambit #habagat #my art #habagat - gambit's dad - got savagely attacked by a werebat during one of our recent sessions #and gambit raged. i make it rage very sparcely #(it's only the second time in fact after playing more than a year)#because it's such a tender being. i technically could make it rage at every fight very easily (and it would make fights easier)#but i prefer using it when it matters. and here it did #first time i let it rage since it turned lvl3 and gave it wild surge #so as it raged surrounded by many blue sparks a small flame-like spirit blew out of its body #and went to explode on one of the foes #lots of energy for its dad. habagat wasn't in too horrible a state but he sure got shook by this encounter #so did the rest... so many things i could draw about this short fight so many things happened #so much character development #i'm still thinking about it #anyway i tried things with this piece and fell short of what i wanted - not entirely satisfied - but it's not too bad #some symbolics here and there #hope yall enjoi ♥

My page for @sheikahzine; about Impaz's duty to her village, empty of people and full of memories.

[id in alt text]

#legend of zelda #loz #twilight princess #loz tp #i'm still reeling that someone sent me an ask about this one.. that they took the time to find my tumblr and tell me they liked it #it really meant a lot; thank you to anyone that stops to leave comments like that. they make me happy #but yeah! here's the usual symbolism ramble:#i thought it'd be cool to have the 'spirits' flowing one way and the cats walking through them the other way #to kinda show the difference in life inhabiting the village in the past and present #link's face is covered because impaz was just waiting for 'the hero' so his clothes are what matters; not his face #and it (hopefully) gives a surreal and intangible sense to 'the hero' she could only hope would actually show up #you can feel free to interpret the glowy blue sheikah as ghosts or just as memories of the past! i couldn't decide either way #the one on the bottom left is oot impa since she's implied to be the village founder. so i guess she would be a ghost actually?#fan art #my art #project stuff #and ahhh the book-- everyone's stuff is so beautiful!!#especially the writing. some of the fics made me really tear up and some were so fun and clever. i really love them #a lot of them captured the sheer burden of the role of the sheikah; all of the time and grief and doubt #i know i always say this stuff about every project but. the people i get to work with in these are truly so skilled every time

some of my kin liken humans to beasts to illustrate their ruthless ambition.

i do not.

the wolf hungers, and hunts to sate that hunger.

the bear must rest, and hunts to sleep once winter comes.

the human does not merely 'hunt'.

they torch forests and poison rivers. they build giant constructions which spew gas as black as night into the very air we breathe. they hunt and hunt and hunt until nothing is left.

describing them as anything other than 'human', is to undersell the reality of their callous disregard for any semblence of mercy.

TMNT AU COMPETITION - CONTEXT COMICS: COMIC 1 - COMIC 2 - COMIC 3 - COMIC 4 - COMIC 5

Don't mind, Omega. He's just being dramatic. Thank you so much @abbeyofcyn and @thegunnsara for pulling me into this hilarious mashup as well as @kittynomore @tapakah0 @hylwicks and @isaacz for letting their characters be a part of it! Figured I would use this opportunity to do my Replica introduction as well!

The @tmntaucompetition has barely even started and I am already overwhelmed by the amount of asks and support I've received! Thank you everyone! There are so many things I want to respond to, but I just don't have the time!

However I am so excited to get to interact with some of you! I'll be sure to respond to a few more that reference Omega directly when I can (looking at you @intotheelliwoods and @karonkar )!

Also, please don't destroy my asks trying to offer chew toys to Donnie... it's too late. His fate has been sealed. He's in autistic robot hell now. Goodnight sweet prince.

Also also, uh... THAT one image? Don't think about it too hard. :)

#I love me some impending doom symbolism #everything is great!#no problems here #on with the competition!#I don't know what Rep!Leo and Fracture!Donnie are talking about #but Rep!Leo is so happy to be by his twin again #tmnt au competition #tmnt au propaganda #rottmnt replica #replica #rottmnt #kathaynesart #save rottmnt #blood #tw blood #character death mention #tw character death

A Linked Universe meets The Dark Crystal AU! I don't even remember what started it at this point. I remembered that the Dark Crystal and Age of Resistance are things I like, blinked, and woke up three days later with an AU and a bunch of art.

The designs and the story are a wip and for fun so expect a lot of variation! (I have a few different beginnings, ideas for different designs, etc)! :D

In addition to #linked universe I'll be using the tags #the dark crystal lu au and #courage of the dark crystal!

#linked universe #tdc aor #the dark crystal lu au #courage of the dark crystal #lu au au #lu legend #lu hyrule #lu four #I've made an au of the au I've gone too far help help-#I gotta get better at drawing gelfling! Their facial structures are very distinct #ALSO I went really big with the ears here lmao #the hugest ears ever seen on gelfling #TRANS ROOLIE TRANS ROOLIE TRANS ROOLIE YIPPEE!!!!#I drew this last month (except for Four) sO HAPPY PRIDE! Roolie gets WINGS! :D #I'm SO pleased with Wind's design! he's a lil fishy! and Four with the horned headband/armor in place of the lil ups in his bangs #gonna try to put the aureyal or symbol of the conjunction and triangles on all of them #IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE AU PLS ASK THEM #I'd love to tackle some worldbuilding mayhaps?!#I'm thinking of placing them somewhere before the first battle of stone-in-the-wood in the arathim wars #or after the events of the comics with Kensho and Thurma somewhere #and just figure out another reason for the crystal to be shattered. so many possibilities!#where's the crystal shard this time and how can I split it between them? >:3 niiiiine shards made whole >:3 #quest for the ~~triforce~~ crystal #Hello from summer camp also! Lots of shenanigans!#I'm surprised I was able to draw Four at all last weekend I've been so busy!!!#having fun tho!!! we're having a lunch cookout at archery and campfire is tonight!!! It's going good! see ya!!!

one thing about ik is that she will always reach out

#obey me #art #i had the idea for this and managed to bulldoze through drawing it all without losing motivation halfway through #but Do Not expect me to post art this frequently in future #idk how to do panels so if the middle bit with the text might be laid out weird #i added the stars and feathers and stuff because there was a bunch of empty space around the boxes #obey me satan #jtta ik #(btw the crumbling symbol next to the exploding feather is the wrath symbol from in-game)#(with the pride symbol attached upside down at the bottom)#(not so much symbolism as it is just me whacking you over the head with the point but it looks cool)#i had a lot of fun doing satan's more monstrous design so i might try my hand at some of the other demons later?#i do have some ideas for levi (deep sea creatures are just really fun)#also happy nightbringer release day!! it showed up on my homescreen like half an hour ago and i was like “wait what”#for some reason i thought it wasn't releasing til next week??#the new genshin patch is today as well so looks like i'll have plenty to do with the rest of my free time for the easter hols #(i promise i'm also working on the next chapter of jtta but i am so stuck on how to get lucifer actually Talking)#anyway. here's a gold star for making it through all my rambling in the tags for anyone who did so: ⭐

Behind every tumblr sexyman is a bear who is just absolutely GOING THROUGH IT

ID and alternate versions (no glow + no string) under the cut :]

[start ID:

A drawing of Bill Cipher and Stanford Pines from Gravity Falls. It is mostly rendered in different shades of purplish gray, with sketchy ballpoint lineart. Bill is in a 3/4 view, floating on the left, with one knee drawn up and a hand held up to his eye coquettishly. His other hand is trailing behind him. He’s looking over his “shoulder” to the right. He is surrounded by a faint yellow glow.

Ford is on the right, also in a 3/4 angle, head tilted slightly downwards. He is shown from his shoulders up and looks to be in his mid-60s, with wrinkles and spiky hair that stands up at the front. He is wearing a dark turtleneck sweater and slightly cracked glasses, and scowling wearily off to the right.

A thin, swirling red line connects them; it loops around Bill’s left wrist and ankle and Ford’s head.

end ID.]

alt versions!

#doodle #illustration #procreate art #bill cipher #gravity falls #stanford pines #bill x stanford #billford #book of bill #the book of bill #book of bill spoilers #the book of bill spoilers #<— not explicitly but just in case #btw I put some symbolism in here #the string is curling around bill but just kinda floating around ford to show that bill is way more caught up in the divorce that ford :]!#symbolismmmmmmmmmm 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

"I only hope it felt like falling asleep."

for @barrenclan because asphodelpaw has me fucked. up. may she have sweet dreams of better places

#barrenclan #asphodelpaw #also had to do my favorite: flower symbolism #fitting that some asphodels have that red accent to them.....#my fanart #my art #fun fact: this was originally a cool sketchbook drawing fanart and its actually verrry slightly overlayed over this drawing #barrenclan spoilers #spoilers #tried to give this one a bit of a storybook vibe #also inspired by some funerary animal photos i saw like many many years ago here on tumblr where they were surrounded by a wreath of flower #blood cw

“Haven’t You Noticed (I’m a Star)” from Steven Universe works so ridiculously well for Leo

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt headcanons #rottmnt leo #rise leo #listen it’s morning now and I haven’t slept so bear with me for the sudden unwarranted lyric analysis haha #a lotttt of the lyrics work so well for him #not even just the overall theme the words just work great #first lyric is literally ‘I can’t help it if I make a scene’ which is one to one with ‘Leo’s makin a scene’ from the rottmnt opening like-#‘I’m turning heads and I’m stopping traffic’ -> Leo has not made it a secret that he values his looks a LOT #-not just his looks but also his ability to get people’s attention #‘when I pose they scream when I joke they laugh’ -> I feel like this speaks for itself #-posing and joking for the crowd and himself #‘I’ve got them dazzled like a stage magician’ -> works both with Leo’s canonical love of magicians and his aptitude with tricks in general #‘well everybody needs a friend and I’ve got you and you and you’ -> I just think it’d be cute to imagine his friends here just as his bros #‘I got you and you and you’ = ‘my brainy guy my smashing guy and eats peanut butter with his fingers guy’#‘haven’t you noticed that I’m a star?’ -> Leo loves attention and especially loves when his feats and efforts are acknowledged #+ he loves glam rock and sci-fi and being a champ and - listen he has a LOT of star symbolism with him #‘haven’t you noticed I made it this far’ - Leo is well aware of how dangerous situations get and thinks himself only a part of a whole #-so hey it’s notable that he’s survived this long yeah?#‘now everyone can see me burning’ -> self-sacrificing with his family bearing witness + all his star and flame symbolism in general #+ how attention naturally goes to him - including bad attention where his mistakes are highlighted and burn bright #also even the limo lyric-#obviously this boy has never and will never own a limo but one of his main secondary colors IS pink so even that #okay that one is just a joke but he would #(on that note though I think the other colors the boys gravitate to outside THEIR color are fun to notice)#I don’t actually know too much about Steven universe beyond the songs and some eps but I like the music #and this just came to my tired mind so here you go anyone who’s interested #may draw something with these lyrics dunno yet #it’s a good song in any case even though it’s super short

This project is officially out of hand - I swore 3 months ago that I won't expand it to clones territory, I really won't, and look where I am now! I also had to double down on Rex, if I'm here and have accepted defeat, as I finally got around to watching Rebels and I just love him so much with that beard, and his freckles omg TTnTT (I really really wouldn't mind seeing him in the Ahsoka show either, please)

The rest of the Mandalorian Star Wars meets Hades AU project is here

I've spent my sick day real productively, I believe :3
