Some concept for Black Panther : Wakanda Forever. Helping the director having a better view on how Namor would fly. One of the keyword from director Ryan Coogler was « brutal »! So I developed something with more breaks and direction and speed changes. Not straight pace and path. One other inspiration was parkour. And instead of using real resistance and obstacles in thin air I thought about Namor being able to change the density of moisture all around him and using those « clouds » as springboard. I’m doing those « animations » from time to time on the movies. Different from usual concept art and quite challenging. But fun to do!!
On that note, I want to spotlight the fundraiser for an Afro-Palestinian journalist, and Lama Jamous' uncle. He has less of a following amongst allies because he posts almost entirely in Arabic, so I'm going to spotlight him on my blog and put him on the fundraiser list as well.
And please follow him on IG as well, even if you only speak English he has small captions on the videos he posts that translate his Arabic.
Hussam's GFM is still extremely low on funds, so I'll be doing some fundraising for him! For every 5 euros you donate, I will write you 250 words. If you donate 8 euros, I'll write you 500 words. This rate is good up to 2,000 words! After that, every 10 euros donated will get you 250 words.*
Fandoms I've written for and will definitely write for: The Raven Cycle, Six of Crows, We Hunt the Flame
Fandoms I will NOT write for: Harry Potter, Marvel, OFMD, TLOU
If there's a fandom you want me to write for but I'm not that familiar with it, you can send me a DM and we can work it out! I'd just need some background so whatever you'd like to see in the story/characterization can be hashed out. Please make sure you DM me before donating so that we're both sure I can write for/am willing to write for the fandom of your choice. For artists: I will also write for your OCs if you'd like!
I will not write smut or anything NSFW.
You can send me proof of your donation and your request for a fic through DM. Please make sure to block out any personal information on your GFM receipt.

*please note that i am a student and it's currently exam season, so it will take me at least one week to get you your fics, possibly longer if they're over 2,000 words or if i'm unfamiliar with the characters. please be patient with me! thank you <3
I never feel as human as when he is near me. Vashti tells me there is something different in me when he is near. I don’t know how to tell him the truth, so I just smile and nod. But there is something different in me when he is near – it’s true. He makes me feel like the sun.
– excerpt from the private journals of Prince Namor of Atlantis, the Avenging Son, and the Scourge of the Seven Seas

It was strange to Namor that there could be such a beautiful, mundane day amidst one of the worst wars the surface world has ever known. Somewhere on the European continent, there were men dying for what they believed was right. Amid blood and screaming, lives were being lost under the tyranny of evil. And yet, the sun shone like a beacon in the sky above, the ocean glimmered like a jewel, and Namor was flying.
read the rest on AO3. written for @namorweek day one: Wings & Sun. reblogs encouraged + appreciated. thank you excelsiorfics for the tracked tag!
I love when artists give Namor's eyes this underwater glow. I think it's neat. I headcanon that he has a second set of lids that close over his eyes to help him see in the water. While other Atlanteans don't have one for the surface, so when they come up it's too bright for them

things I think about, like how in the comics The Serpent Crown is an important magical artifact that Namor is linked to & how in the movie he wears the crown of the Feathered Serpent, but unlike the comics where the crown is evil, the Feathered Serpent is a revered deity
Thought I'd try my hand at drawing what Quicksilver might look like in the new X-Men '97 series if he were to ever appear! The suits I used were based off X-Men: The Animated Series, All New X-Factor, and Magneto Rex!
If you'd like to see how I made them and why I chose these suits specifically, my video below goes far more in depth about it! ✨
