Extremely rough late-night sketches for me to get to know one of my MCs (info post to be shared sometime later).

Props to whoever recognizes the dialogue I’m referencing in the fourth image :)

『 Important Disclaimers! 』

Please read this if you aren’t already familiar with me and my work. A more complete/general list can be found on my main blog’s pinned post; this stuff is more specific to the fandom.

BYI ➥

This blog, overall, is a 16+ space. If you’re younger than 16, I won’t block you, but you’re on thin ice. My blog may feature the following:

gore

angst

various flavors of horror

explorations of trauma/traumatic events

occasional eyestrain

I’m asexual, and a minor, so sex/sexual themes aren’t really going to be present. Please don’t be sexual in reblogs/comments/asks, it weirds me out.

My opinions about Dorian are mixed at best. I’d rather ignore the app and do my own thing.

I neither like nor dislike Lucio. I think that his route is pretty flawed, but I won’t judge you if you’re into him.

DNI ➥

Please block me if you/you’re:

A NSFW-heavy blog

Fit basic DNI criteria (queerphobic, ableist, racist, etc)

A drama-heavy blog. I’m here to interact with artists and share my work, not participate in fandom discourse.

Also, you might want to block me if you aren’t comfortable with the themes my blog features. I promise I won’t take offense. Take care of yourself!

I will block you if you’re:

Fitting into the above DNI criteria

Sexualizing Valdemar

Crossing my boundaries, despite being given warnings

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

Other Boundaries ➥

I would like to keep my main blog separate from this one. That means this: The Arcana discussions stay here, personal project discussions stay on @caustic-caffeine. Aside from my main reblogging art I post on this blog, the two blogs won’t overlap very much. Cool? Cool.

Don’t try to pry into my personal life. You are not entitled to know anything about me. I will share what I see fit to share, and nothing more.

Don’t use slurs around me.

You may reblog my work and use it as pfps/profile headers with credit. Outside of that, do not use my work without my explicit permission. DO NOT feed my work to an AI or turn it into NFTs.

『 About the Blog! 』

Hello! Call me Asphodel. I’m a digital artist seeking to study The Arcana’s art style, both out of appreciation for the game and as a challenge to myself. My post schedule is fairly sporadic on account of my health, so I can’t really predict how often I’ll use this blog, but I figured I’d make one just in case.

I got into The Arcana for the first time all the way back in 2017, around the time of its release. I remember impatiently waiting for the bottom three LIs’ routes to update, as they were completed post-launch. Over the last few years, I periodically would hyperfixate on the game and then grow bored of it for a little while, before the cycle repeated itself. The Arcana was one of my inspirations for me to start taking my own art seriously, back in 2020.

I’ll be using this blog to document my study of the game’s art style. I’ll share headcanons from time to time. I’m also interested in meeting other fandom blogs, especially other artists!

『 Other Info! 』

I don’t currently take commissions.

DM me if you want to do an art trade or a collab! I may decline if my health’s flaring up/I’m too busy, but I’m happy to do them when I can.

Constructive critique is welcome on my style studies, with these conditions:

Be respectful. Don’t insult my work for the sake of being an ass.

Be descriptive. What works in my pieces and why? What doesn’t work and why?

Give pointers on how you’d improve weaker aspects of the work.
