Face your daylight horrors!
(Except acorns, it is totally fine to avoid those whenever possible. Seriously, they bother me.)
I am an emotional and enthusiastic person, so here there will be feelings! Mostly good feelings, but awkwardly expressed. That is just how I do things.
He should not think of the markings as beautiful, not when they had caused so much pain and posed such danger to its host, but the way they outlined his muscles and caught the light still were so, without a doubt. It was an additional cruelty, Karl thought, to design the markings to be so beautiful that they would distract from the person who bore them and come to define him in the eyes of too many.
At least he did not touch them, even as his eyes lingered; instead he traced the unmarked skin around them with careful fingers, softly as if the skin still burned from within and were in need of soothing.
The first kiss was pressed on his chin, between the white lines, earning him a soft sigh of a body’s yes, but he had to make sure.
“In words, if you please.”
Fenris chuckled, amused but content. “Do go on.”
And so he did, tongue carefully travelling the paths between the markings on his neck, fingers caressing the skin they met as he undressed him with all the reverence of a first time.
Ok, I’ve had it. Over the holidays I am gonna sit down and draw a whole sheet of those damned ears.
My brain is not quite up to being coherent right now, so I will go “that nose, those eyes, those lips” and then feel a bit better looking at it. I mean, this is absolutely terrific, the grove between his nose and mouth, and his lips looks so soft and his eyes are so realistic, and now I am rambling. He is just that gorgeous.
So! This will be the Anora chess piece. She is tiny - I will be able to play chess with these when they are done, but as it is now, she is far from done. I find WIPs very fascinating, though; I love it when people post and document the journey of their art. So this is a part of her journey. She is out of the ugly monster state (armatures can look rather creepy, to be honest) now, but there is a lot of fine tuning left to do. Most noticeably, she has no eyes, and it is clear to see that ears are not my favourite part to make - they are basically outlined, now, just so I have everything in place. The mouth is a bit off (I smooshed the clay while photographing, but the worst has been taken care of now!) and she needs more forehead, but she is starting to take shape. Still a long way to go, but I am excited about it!
WHAT IS PERSPECTIVE
WHAT IS ARCHITECTURE
Sorry everyone. I’m expanding the canvas so that there is more for Fenris to look at and then I will do the proper lineart. I just really liked the image Sebastian dreamed up.
I think the word combination should be something like “What is awesome? Oh, this perhaps!” instead, because I find it so gorgeous in its simplicity and dreamlike feeling that brings sunlight and soft breezes to mind. I, too, really like the image Sebastian dreamed up, and I am really glad I got to see it like this, and I am looking forward to seeing the expanded canvas so much because I am so curious to see what it is Fenris is looking at, what it is that gives him the expression he has.
Never apologise for putting artwork out there! Things like this brightens peoples’ days.
OH GAWD MY EYES *_*
But I’m done learning about “paths” (even my writing was done with a path) and simple coloring with them. At least I finished the tutorial and learned one PS function (question is: is this “path” thing useful? no idea! lol)
This is definitely a day where I need to see an elephant and Karl in the same picture. And it is so adorable. Definitely elephantastic!
Argh I feel like I haven’t uploaded any art in forever so here is a little parade of current WIPs to maybe motivate myself by adding some accountability
like that has ever worked.State of the headcanons:
- Karl (and a little Anders): still 17/20 :|
- Tobrius and Maurevar Carver: fuuuuuuuck
i am never writing again
Kaaaarl! I might not be able to see his face, but I know that he is there, and that is a comfort. And… he is comforting a sad little Anders? Oh, Karl. Oh, now I want to read a fic where he does that so very, very much.
