Vacuan Nights, Like Vacuan Days

They’re just so great together! I’d love for Jaune and Weiss to get a little downtime in Vacuo to live out a moment like this. They really deserve it, and I’d love to see Jaune’s guitar make a reappearance.

The comic here was inspired by u/Silverstar1243’s excellent piece of art, A Serenade Under the Moonlight. Send some love to them on their twitter, commission some art if you’re willing and able, they’ve made some great stuff.

You folks may have noticed I threw in a couple of references for those in the know; the Golden Oreos behind Yang (double stuffed, I might add) for the trio’s ship, Weiss liking it rough for Mallobaude’s great fic, and of course I made a whole theme around the Arabian Nights Disney song. A song, along with its Aladdin compatriots, which I spent the better part of a day finding covers for just to listen to on repeat while I worked.

This one’s now officially my longest comic project, with 14 panels, two over the past record since I added the White Knight kiss at the end. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Not sure I’d say it was more difficult than my Vanity of Vanities post, but for this one I actually knew how to use my editing software going into it (at least somewhat).

Put a lot of work into this one, been working on it on and off since February. Took a few breaks for vacation, to make my memorial post for Rooster Teeth, and another five meme edits or so, but I came back around to it. First half was pretty easy, relatively minor edits inserting characters into scenes and so on. The second half with Jaune and Weiss was tougher though, with color correcting, merging poses, redrawing features, drawing Jaune’s entire head to fix some lighting issues, etc. Really like how the edit to make Jaune strum his guitar turned out.

The time it took to make the whole comic got me down a little, until I did a bit of math. Including my side projects since starting this, all the scripting and editing and all, I’ve been pumping out a panel every two days. That seems pretty good to me, that kind of accomplishment makes me a little proud of myself.

Really need to get around to watching the second part of the Justice League Crossover movies. It’s got a few Vacuo scenes that might make things a little more authentic instead of me just using Saphron’s house and pretending it’s a suite in Vacuo. I do love taking yet more character stills from Jaune and friends experiencing deep trauma and turning it into something positive, been making that a bit of a personal habit. And I’ve got to say, the background for Jaune and Weiss’ scene is really beautiful, pulled it from when Sun and Neptune hear Ruby’s message about Salem. That’s just a really good shot all on its own, I even saved a copy for my computer’s wallpaper after editing out the two.

Posting a big RWBY White Knight edit, watching not one but two RWBY Beyond episodes, and all on the trail of the news that RWBY’s found partners that they’re negotiating with and that the creative team is expected to stay on. And I'm sipping bubble tea. Life is good.

Anyway, pardon the long write up. I’m invested in this one, and am quite pleased with how the comic turned out. I hope you all get a kick out of it as well!

As a sketch request, can we plz see Gerard of Greenleigh as Tuxedo Mask (or anime prince of choice)? I just want him to be happy tbh

I’ve been so excited for this one, as soon as I read this prompt this came to me fully formed (with a bonus Princess Ser-Elody)

Sketch requests are currently closed!

#dimension 20 #neverafter #prince gerard of greenleigh #princess elody #doodly #lots of pretending I know how to draw frogs for these #I spent so long trying to figure out how the mask would work #before realizing it was way funnier for it to just not fit #I love this sweaty frog #thank you for the request!

A scene in @holleighgram's Life Long Strangers fic that I really liked!

[ID: A drawing of Sora and Riku from Kingdom Hearts dancing and singing together, holding hands as they do so. Sora is looking up at Riku while Riku's eyes are closed as he dances. Sora is wearing a red hoodie with black accents, grey basketball shorts and red converse with the Kingdom Hearts heart and crown logo in place of the converse logo. Riku is wearing white and black shirt, black skinny jeans and black converse with the same logo as Sora's in place of the converse logo. He is also wearing a black wristwatch.

The background consists of dark pink with warmer light pink light behind Sora and a cooler light pink behind Riku. There are numerous semi-transparent hearts scattered in the background. The lyrics

“It’s not enough to take the one you love for granted!” 

are in the background as well.]

#kh #my art #digital art #fanart #soriku #sora #riku #(please read this fic omg) #(its so fun to read and it gets sora and rikus dynamic so fucking well!!!) #(its just fun and sweet and aaaaaa) #(i love the fic a lot and i need more people who i can talk about it with) #(so if possible) #(please read it so i can talk about all the ways i love it to you-) #(it was super fun drawing riku and sora like this!!) #(but also) #(fuck their hair) #(i took a solid few minutes just trying to find references and figure out their hair in a side profile) #(note to self: practice drawing more spiky hair) #(the hands are something were not gonna talk about okay?) #(i spent too long on them and i think theyre... good enough) #(it was fun drawing the two in much simpler designs) #(even if it took all my will power not to add some decals to rikus shirt) #(but yeah) #(im pretty happy with this!!)

Esme's 3 warmest days

Baby Blanket

I want to meet you, precious stranger. You're voice and name are foreign, though your warmth is familiar. I stretch my fingers ten months forward to grasp you, though you're here taking each step beside me. I know you, little alien: i braid an ancestral tapestry as we grow close. I pull my frayed heartstrings like thread to seal you to my body. I use my needle to hole punch my skin and weave you through the open wounds, so your easy company in my organs might heal me like a salve. Every pull threads you tighter to my flesh and the goodbye will surely shred me.

But I pull the stitch closed, regardless.

My needle is unsteady. I tread lightly. I defer. But this goodbye is mine to wave and when I come to tear your skin from mine, I will recognise you in the blood. I will kiss your cheeks and pet your eyes and I will thank you for the holes you leave behind, for the opportunity to press salty lips through my seams and whisper endless farewell. I don't regret getting to know a pain like yours so, please, when i peep through my holes from time to time, wave goodbye to me from the other side. And tell me

you'll pull our stitches closed again, regardless.

#not my cleanest or most skilled drawing but definitely the one thats had the most hours spent on it #i love to think about this part of Esme's life and i know she does too #hc that Carlisle recovers that little yellow blanket with her body bc she took it to the cliffs with her #and she continues to take it with her to every house for all eternity #its a knit blanket with a little cell stitch w holes just big enough for his tiny fingers to poke through #and she cuddles it to her on long sleepless nights w her husband #lil comfort item tehe #be kind this one means a lot to me #esme cullen #my art #twilight fanart #this ones for you lil flower 🤍 #appending some tags to say the artist of the drawing and the author of the poem has experienced infant loss #so be gentle in ur reblogs pls <3

[arthur-r]

just finished a drawing for the hhvcd anniversary but the problem is. i spent like eight-ish hours on it???? over the course of many days???? and my goal had been to make three pictures of each of them. and what i have is a singular drawing of haricot

#i hadn’t like. actually spent time on a drawing. in a really long time like i’ve only sketched for like 20 minutes at a time. maybe an hour #so i was very very lofty with my goals!!!! and now idk what to do cause cd is important and i love cd and i really meant to draw them both #i meant to draw them each in three different super cool and unique outfits and poses!!!! but here i am shdhdf #anyway maybe i’ll have time to make cd but i doubt it. maybe i’ll just be late???? #i’m proud of myself for spending so much time on this picture like more time than i have in years. but it’s sure an inconvenience shdhdf #i think i will probably hold on to my picture until the day of? but i might show it to my best friends private #problem is the hhvcd people are my best friends. nobody to surprise with a picture of haricot if brian and june see it two days early #anyway i’ll see about making cd in the next two days but like. i don’t think i would’ve finished hh if there wasn’t a snow day today #and making just the two original people was supposed to be making it easier for me shdhdf i was going to do something with fog/maybe maggie #but i knew that would be too much so i did the two people who were actually came up with on the day that i’m making them for #but apparently when i actually make art that i don’t entirely hate that actually takes a lot of time and effort #like i knew it would take multiple hours. just not several evenings of hyperfocus and missing dinner #speaking of which. i should stop typing this and go eat some food. and also turn on the light the sun set two hours ago and i didn’t do that #so im sitting here in complete darkness drawing pictures on my phone lit up in a spooky glow probably #so that’s nice. anyway i have to go eat. excited to show everyone my drawing eventually. see you in a while!!!! #me. my post. mine. #delete later #disordered eating cw #(better safe!!!! obviously it wasn’t on purpose. but good to be safe) #ask to tag

Amor absolutus mortem vincit.

[Image description: a black-and-white digital drawing of Caleb Jansen, a white man with long black hair, from the SPECTR series by Jordan L Hawk. He's blindfolded and reaching up as he's kneeling on a furry surface, and behind him is darkness, and in it closed tiger eyes and tiger stripes. The place he touches the tiger face is glowing, and it lights up his fingers and parts of his mostly naked body. End description.]

#caleb jansen #spectr #spectr fanart #jordan l hawk #spectr grey #spectr gray #art #described #described art #described fanart #dan draws #concept sketches!!! i love making them. i want to eventually come back to this and make it look rly good #i spent sooo long browsing the latin dictionary to see if i could find a synonym for absolutus but. we stuck w it in the end #i looove tho that mors mortis f can mean both death and murder #v apt for this scene. since its the scene from the uhh 5th book? yknow the thing that happened that irrevocably broke sean and john up #or like. my interpretation of what happened after it #i looove gray and calebs relationship. it warms my heart so much <3 i love a lot abt spectr. but thats my fave thing #(latin translation for anyone who needs it: unconditional (absolute) love defeats death

[mushroom-winners-proof]

the way you draw skulls and faces is very sharp and recognizable. i notice that you put a lot into making them look particularly distinct for every character

thank you for the observations everyone i will let it affect my brain chemistry for the rest of the week

#snap chats #'consumed nothing but jojo for years on end' alright. ok. alright. hold on #no but uhh i did draw jojo for a long time LMAO SO IM NOT SURPRISED THE INFLUENCE IS STILL NOTABLE #im trying to think how long i drew jojo #i drew it every day and i would do multiple drawings a day since i ran daily blogs so. Yeah A Lot #its funny that my art screams 'jojo' when i spent a good year drawing nothing but dragonball #i aint gon act like the first time i started posting kh people were saying my art looked very DB tho LMAO so fairs fair #also ty on sayin my faces are distinct anon :) #my friend said once that i had same-face syndrome and i havent emotionally recovered #i know i still suffer from it when it comes to drawing kids and teenagers but i like to think my adults/middle-aged characters are distinct #i probably fuck up though but im glad people think they look distinct #i do very much like to make my facial features sharp on adults that is very true #i cant place why i just know i make eyebrow bones and cheeks Sharp most of the time #i try to make them rounded for some characters but i know i default to a point #i definitely make them round for kids and teenagers thats what helps make them look young i feel #i also just like to draw what i see when it coems to faces esp when its a character i like a lot #like a reason why i love them is probably because i think their face is fun to draw cause of how distinct it is #like xigbar has a very distinct face to me and its why i adore him
