A year later I decided to update one of my favorite art pieces! I had a phase of urban background practice, and one of my favorite pieces was this!
Tumblr media
It was aiming for a Humid rainy city with spooky cold fog kinda vibes! This was actually concept art for a dnd character based off of The Magnus Archives, with a mix of lonely and extinction avatar (similar to how Martin is lonely and eye aligned). Basically a city of stone! And now, I've updated amd redid some of the colors and contrast!
Tumblr media
Tada!

Random Martin doodle I did really quick last night
[ID: A drawing of Martin Blackwood from the Magnus Archives. He is standing in a cloudy area, watching his hand disappear into fog with a solemn expression. His skin and hair are washed of color and his coat almost blend with the clouds around him like he’s disappearing into the background. \End ID]

"I thought you might be lost." is one of the most delightfully romantic things Jon ever says to Martin.
It's so devoid of blame, of derision. A truly neutral statement, soft, no touch of sarcasm, no hint of cruelty. A gentle hand reached out to pull him from the depths of the lonely.
Such an unusual phrase for Jon, especially at that time. There's no definitives, it's entirely open to correction, open to being wrong. 'I thought' not I knew. It comes from Jon's perspective, he holds himself out to rejection, something that's hard to do at the best of times.
'you might be lost', not you were, not you are. He respects that this may well have been a conscious choice, that Martin really could have chosen to abandon him, preferring the lonely to the lack of certainty in their relationship. But it retains the softness and love, the worry and care. He was worried that Martin might not be able to find his way back, but not willing to drag him out of a place he might have chosen to be.
And that's not even mentioning the softness with which he says it. In an intense moment of great urgency and importance he's able to drop his fear, stress, and anger, in an attempt to reach the man he loves.
It's such an elegant moment of love; in a second Jon is willing to let go of the gravity of the situation and put all of his being into connecting with Martin, and when it comes down to it, it works.

relating to martin blackwood is all fun and games until you are deeply lonely and depressed with no friends in love with a coworker

Got this idea while listening to TMP (again) yesterday and thought it would be fun/cute. Then I thought it would be extra cute to put the actual Jon and Martin in the same concept so I made that:
Tumblr media
After that my brain was hyper focused on this concept so i made some alterations....lol

Second Discworld x The Magnus Archives drawing!
I got lots of great suggestions on Reddit for non-Monstrous Regiment characters, so I’ll be doing some of those too.
Wazzer and Anogovia have always been The Lonely in my eyes. It’s funny that The Lonely gets two characters, but they’re lonely together, you know?

Oddly specific, mundane things that are aligned with the 15 fears:
The Eye- Making deep eye contact with a stranger on the platform as the train pulls away.
The Hunt- Wanting something so badly that you can't stay still anymore.
The Buried- Trying to get your phone back when it falls between your bed and the wall
The Vast- Being a child and hearing about how unknowably large Chuthulu is for the first time.
The Flesh- Looking in the mirror and realising your body's changed since the last time you really looked.
The Lonely- Realising you're the only customer at the supermarket.
The Corruption- When you see one ant but once you've focused on it you can see the rest of them.
The End- Holding an antique object and knowing that it's original owner is long dead.
The Desolation- That gut wrenching feeling when you've lost something you know you're not going to be able to get back.
The Stranger- Looking into the eyes of a loved one and not being able to see anything you know in there.
The Spiral- When you say something loud enough to be heard and absolutely nobody processes it or responds.
The Dark- Straining your eyes to try and see something at the end of an unlit corridor that you swear you could almost see.
The Slaughter- Ripping up a letter with your full name and address on and throwing it in the bin.
The Extinction- Being the last player left alive in a survival game and realising that in another life that could happen for real.
The Web- That burning, guilty feeling after you're manipulated into doing something you didn't want to do.

[ID: A pen doodle on index paper, of Martin Blackwood and Jonathan Sims from the Magnus Archives standing in a windy area. Martin has a jacket on and seems unbothered by the wind. Jon on the other hand seems worried about his friend and also cold and folded in on himself. \End ID]

Mundane things that feel like TMA entities
The Buried - When you cover your entire body in blankets but have to poke your head out a few minutes later bc you can't breathe.
The Corruption - Being anxious about opening a tupperware from the back of the fridge, the contents of which have probably been rotting in there for months.
The Dark - When you turn off the lights in a room and walk just a bit faster than normal back into the light.
The Desolation - Burning paper, tossing something into a bonfire just to burn it.
The End - Trying not to think about how the elderly people you know won't be around in a while.
The Extinction - Anxiety about not recycling a singular plastic bottle.
The Eye - Looking at yourself in those little surveillance monitors that show customers in a store what the cameras are seeing.
The Hunt - Playing tag or any other chasing/being chased game.
The Flesh - Picking at your skin, in any way.
The Lonely - Driving at night through the suburbs.
The Slaughter - Killing any sort of bug, stomping on ants just because.
The Spiral - Losing something small, upturning everything around you, only to find the thing in a pocket or a place you don't remember putting it.
The Stranger - Not liking your voice in recordings because it sounds different from how you usually hear it.
The Vast - Looking out the window on an airplane, watching the world fade away beneath the clouds.
The Web - Going through a bureaucratic procedure like renewing a passport or filling out banking paperwork.
