Something I want to write down for an oc so I don't forget
Context: he is explaining to some visitors in his home who are friends of his lover (Leo) his reasoning behind swindling an old rich guy out of a Japanese maple tree, which up until then was being neglected.
"if you're to truly make a friend of me, and I assume your intentions are as such considering you've made friends of Leo and you're satisfied to lodge with me, than you must know that I live my life by four simple principles:
#1. Pure, undiluted beauty, that which can be known and felt, but not described, is found in all that is natural. Anything else that is pleasing to the soul is either a derivative of natural beauty, or a construct meant to emulate it. Such lesser concepts are apparent by one's ability to describe them.
#2. Anything that opposes beauty is, in some capacity, evil. This capacity is directly proportional to the purity of the beauty that is being opposed. This is not meant to demonize say, a differing opinion in music or fashion, but a concept that disrupts the flow of natural beauties such as peace, happiness, truth, relief and the natural process of life. Such disruptions may include but are not limited to pain, cruelty, lies, conflict, and destruction.
#3. Anything that is cognizant of the concept of beauty is obligated to protect, preserve and nurture it. Especially when it occurs in the fragile and inexplicable circumstances of the natural universe.
#4. Individuals that adhere to #3 must be faithfully distrustful of those who are cognizant to beauty, but do not care to protect it. They forget what they are, an where they come from. They forget that their body is made of dirt and water and stardust, that their mind, and the presence of sentience therein, is a shining symbol of nature's dominion over all. These lost individuals would see this mighty maple as nothing more than wood to be mastered and manipulated, forgetting that it has seen and will continue to see more than their tiny lives will ever know. They think they are invincible, and so they take nature for granted. For this Crime they are punished with fragile lives and shallow deaths."

At the risk of jinxing its completion by posting the draft, here is an exercise in Page layout I’m doing. It’s my first time doing this, and considering I want to start a webcomic, my goals are to make a page that leads the eye where I want it to go while while instilling a sense of shock and panic that Lockdown is feeling at present.

Polnareff as a transformer!
I used @coralus ‘s method of combining the stand character design with the human character design, along with some classic transformers design tropes

OMG THIS IS THE FIRST TIME ANYONE HAS EVER DONE THIS TO ME I AM SO FLATTERED :’)
I was inspired by @crogdan 's amazing art of Hunter and Belos, and decided to try a similar style! The left is with their art as a reference, the right two are on my own.
