I'm in AWE of the way you draw horns & Lekku!!! They look so weighted and realistic and gorgeous!!! Any tips n tricks on how you do it?

Omg hi hello thank you so much!! It's taken some time but I have a pretty okay system down for these funky dudes- (at least, trying to conceptualize how they'd work in reality lol)

Wall of text up ahead :D

Admittedly, it took messing around with some 3d sculpting to really figure it out but I know that's not always the most accessible thing

So this is generally how I go about sketching them! I tend to work with either montrals that are directly connected to the lekku (first two sketches) or montrals and lekku with different roots on the skull (third sketch); based on the work we've seen of baby 'soka, they both just kinda....grow...? From the? Skull/side of the face? So. Up to interpretation from there lmao

For the montrals, I break it down into simpler forms until i'm satisfied w them looking reasonably like expanded cone-ish shapes, however that ends up hahaha and then depending on which shape I chose, whether they go directly into the lekku or not

From there, the lekku I try to think of having the flexibility somewhere between a cat tail and lizard tail; they're probably mostly muscle and fat, so I imagine they're vaguely wiggly and respond to weight similarly to the way thighs squish when they sit on chairs (so where the lekku rest on the shoulders, a lil bit of squishm, not nearly as much but you get me)

Anddd that's really about it! I'll add some wrinkling where I feel skin would naturally bunch, and on older togs more than the usual because skin loses its elasticity. I tend to think of the montral/lekku set as being somewhat distinct from the head, but being solidly rooted still in the spots I showed :>

I hope this makes sense to some degree??? Thank you again for the ask! I don't get to explain my process often HAHA

trying to describe black sails to people is my personal sisyphean task. “it’s a pirate show” bad. “it’s functionally a prequel to treasure island but also it’s not at all” bad again, and also confusing. “it’s about pirates trying to destroy western civilization” mostly only true of the second half of the show and also doesn’t fully capture what i love about it. “it’s a pirate show about the power of stories, how civilization uses shame to keep people in line and turns them into monsters, and the power of queer rage. it’s got some of the best acting, writing, everything of any show i’ve ever seen.” the most accurate, but way too long and makes me sound pretentious and insane. send help i just want to talk about my favorite show.

#black sails #i usually just got for ‘it’s functionally a prequel to treasure island’ but that says nothing about it. i tried to give my coworker the las #one yesterday but i do think i just sounded unhinged lmao #does anyone have a way that works i’d love to hear it so i can stop living like this

So we put on a mask. It's not hard to understand why. What's hard is knowing that sometimes, the mask is who we really are.
