Papercraft commission of Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian (and Li'l Apple and a bunny), in a pose inspired by Gustav Klimt's famous painting The Kiss! Lan Wangji may be a little disgruntled at being interrupted, but Wei Wuxian is, of course, laughing the whole time.
This piece had some of the most complicated layering I've ever done in a papercraft, which meant I had to take even more care than usual with how every piece of paper was placed and the order in which they could be glued - and I already take a lot of care with that, no matter what I'm making! But the extra time was definitely worth it - I'm really happy with how the final piece came out. ^_^ A very sweet scene for WangXian!
I'm deep in the sauce of Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation
sketched some wangxian fanart but bear with me as I'm still trying to get a hang of drawing these characters (and they'll look better in the future I promise)
Lan Wangi's hair is very hard to draw :')
Last sketch is based off of The Untamed's Wei Wuxian
[He wasn't scared of falling. He had fallen many times over the years. But hitting the ground still hurt. How wonderful it would be if there was someone there to catch him.]
The amount of delusion of people confidently saying "LWJ and JC could have been closer if there's no WWX" is just...out of this world~
It's like saying JFM and YZY would be a lovey dovey couple if there's no Zangse Sanren.
Dude, read the goddamn book! JFM disliking YZY is due to her personality, not because of someone else.
And LWJ, you think Hanguang-Jun who comes out at every chaos regardless of it's size , will be closer to JC who will only take care of cases in Yunmeng if there's a death report??
LWJ who has a peerless virtue will be closer to JC who "Forget Gratitude, Remembers only Grudge" ??
Fine, this may be a conspiracy theory, but does anyone else thinks that after seeing the popularity of the non-canon ships in the scum villain fandom MXTX decided to write her next protagonist to be completely isolated on purpose? Because that has been on my mind a lot. Like, it's a fact that she hates it when people ship her MCs with anyone other than their canon love interest, MXTX wrote her first book with an MC that had a long list of people who adored him and were willing to die to protect him in-work, people ate it up, she noticed that a great part of the fandom ships her MC with basically anyone, she hates it, but no matter what she says the ships keep going, then she writes her next book. In that work her MC is a charming, popular cultivator, who suffers a terrible fall from grace and by the end of it he's lost pretty much everything from his past, except his canon love interest. Even if we take away all the love, respect and adoration Wangxian has towards each other it's pretty clear by the end of MDZS that Lan Wangji is the only one left for Wei Wuxian, everyone else is either dead, distant or just hates him
Lan Zhan, honey, there is no need to be jealous. Wei Ying is oblivious as hell. However, I believe that Nie Huaisang had a crush on Wei Ying during their time in Cloud Recesses.
i love a good polyship<3 i do actually like these three a lot tbh!! theyre fun! ive written/drawn a few comic pages about them even. if that says anything
Okay but… tears of the kingdom AU? Lan Zhan is Link and wwx is Zelda… the final battle with Ganon gave me way too many thoughts of PrinceXian and knightJi. I can’t do this
Like… Tell me LWJ wouldn’t devote himself to protect wwx. Tell me he wouldn’t search sky, earth and sea for his beloved prince who went missing as they were exploring the Burial Mounds in look for clues and history about their kingdom.
Tell me LWJ wouldn’t internally lose it when wwx falls like this and he’s not able to catch him.
Tell me LWJ wouldn’t shed a few tears when he finds out his beloved prince sacrificed his mind, his heart, everything that makes him “Him” just so he could protect his people… so LWJ could thrive and put an end to the evil plaguing their beloved land. Even if it meant they wouldn’t see each other again.
Like… Just seeing wwx in his dragon form, shedding one last tear and sending his last memory. His sacrifice—
Okay I've always been a fan of merfolk that look different based on their regional environment like seal or whale merfolk for cold regions and tropical fish for hot regions and like merfolk that live in the deepest areas having no vision and being bioluminescent and I think if you haven't done that already it would look amazing in your style!!
I've been going for koi fish mostly in the past for mdzs characters and then I kind of just did whatever elements of fish looked pretty and slapped them together. So this was a fun challenge! I found a very much Jin coded tropical fish and an amazing picture of a leopard seal in motion that immediately inspired me. So have these sketches! Thank you very much for the prompt!
