House of Arcane Treasures

Still fiddling on and off with this story idea. I always enjoy trying my hand at creating new mythologies, and the antlered owls and cat-centaurs I've been playing with are such a good time. Also treasure hunters, because that's never not fun.

Jack Adrian of the ever-changing face. Because I have yet to nail him down exactly how I picture him.

Adrian and Kizungu, known by some as Stripes. Being cute as they do.

Abigail of the twitchy trigger finger.

And also some sihiri dawa. Hadharani's mother, for whom I have not yet thought of a name.

This is Talifa. She and the antlered owl Lorisander have been charged with the task of watching over the human girl Severine following her parents' disappearance. Over the past fifteen years of discreetly guarding the girl, the two myth-beings have become quite excellent friends.

I do plan on attempting to draw Lorisander as well, but I need to look at some reference photos first. Owls are hard. (And cat-ladies are naked. Wow, there has been much breasts on my blog lately. Huh.)

Currently having a blast roleplaying Erik and Suvoi with Gideon. God, they're such a hot mess.

MSG dump

Because I definitely draw MSG characters in the margins of my notes waaay more often than anything else.

Suvoi Suvoi Suvoi

Remembering Thorn's death.

Sorry 'bout the naked.

"We've been down here for weeks, Erik! I need the sky, I need the air, I'm suffocating in this pit! I just... I'm cold."

This hasn't happened and probably won't happen, but it is technically an option for Lotus-exorcism.

Playing around with a younger Erik Laroque, about the age he would have been when he destroyed the Tabara camp and killed Suvoi's family.

Still trying to nail down a haircut for Angarhad Dorsal, Ceridwen's perpetually naked sister. Too long here.

This is better, I think.

Also trying to age Kaly and Teris Thorn up by seven years so they can participate in the Rebellion thread. Teris remains much the same, but Kaly becomes more relaxed, more comfortable with herself. Her brother is a good role model. Now they're both fighting to take down the Cleansers like a couple of total badasses.

And then there's the End Times, which I would love to get going again. Here we have Razma standing guard over Noah as he freaks out about the voice only he can hear.

Also, psychic possession issues (Miasma you are a bad.) Also the potential for eventual cuteness.

Thee end. Thanks kids.

in which Kip is still completely absorbed by Mass Effect

I finished 2, lost Tali and Samara and Miranda, and was like NOPE NOT ACCEPTABLE so I did several of the loyalty missions and the suicide mission over and fixed it. Now I'm chugging through 1 and trying to lean more paragon where possible. 

Early on, I attempted to draw the entire team from 2, but you can see where I gave up (and where I didn't even really try.)

 And then there's Jack, who I think is really a beautiful character.

Also Garrus holding Shep's space hamster.

Also Garrus and my Shep being sweet.

 Ugh I will get better at drawing turians I promise.

I confess, I have been neglecting this blog in favor of my new Tumblr blog (http://lotusinaseaoffire.tumblr.com/) but I have not forgotten about this one entirely. I'm also working about thirty hours a week to make a little spending money for Italy and enough for a plane ticket to go see Matt. Basically these days I'm either at work, playing Mass Effect, or on the internet. Woo. Life.

hmm, been a while since I freaked out about X-Men

If this isn't the most epic thing you've ever heard, you are wrong.



Also, Days of Future Past was... delectable.
