Inktober Day 18: Deal

This is a specific scene from my story. This might be the first time I show any actual magic in my public art for it.

The deal was not voluntary on Junar's part. He was forced into it.

The whole thing with Anubis and weighing the heart against a feather was a misinterpretation, it's actually just this.

You pass, btw.

Alex says "i'm going to take a selfie under harsh overhead lighting." She continues with resolute determination "I'm also gonna use a reeeeeal unflattering focal length." The selfie renders a predictably monstrous portrait. Alex looks at it and exclaims "OH GOD! I objectively look like this!"

Inktober Day 17: Ornate

It's past midnight and the time crunch is really bad but I swore I'd do all of inktober and I will!!! 😭

I've made this Shaman design for my story and I drew it for today's prompt.

She's one of the important characters actually... But I'll keep her mysterious for now >:)

Oh actually you know what, I'm going to give myself a bit of leeway on this one

My premise is that watching an LP of a Quantic Dream game is essentially equivalent to playing it yourself

So Heavy Rain, Omikron, Detroit, or Beyond: Two Souls would all be easy contenders for this category

Reading Hawthorne has me talking to the rabbits all weird

"Hello, my darling. My beautiful girl. No, do not shrink away; I will not violate your peace with a finger's touch. My ogre hands could only impose stress upon your beatific loveliness"

Meanwhile Cocoa just stares

An older picture of Cocoa from when she was still being kept separate from Mochi. Cocoa is a black rabbit with a white underside and markings around her eyes, lean and long, constantly conscious so that even in still images her nervousness is still somehow communicated. She is seated next to wire caging, on top of a faded green hay mat, with a white ceramic bowl in the foreground.

Surprisingly, I don't really have any quotes about Koroks themselves! But luckily the Deku Tree is listed as a Korok in the game's character profiles, so it totally counts!

PEOPLE:
- Makoto Yonezu. Senior Lead Landscape Artist for Breath of the Wild.

QUOTE:
Yonezu: I wanted to put a cherry blossom tree somewhere in the Hyrule of [Breath of the Wild]. I think that giving the Great Deku Tree a slightly Japanese aesthetic allows the player to imagine a different view of this world.

Linktober 2: Secret/Sorcery

#zelda #legendofzelda #linktober #ocarinaoftime

A digital painting of Sheik from Ocarina of Time. He looks to the right of the canvas, having completed his transformation from Zelda, standing tall as the mark of his previous life is burned away. Strands of long golden hair separate and blur into the background to form a halo for Sheik’s short haircut, interspersed with white wrappings from his disguise as a member of the Sheikah clan— as well as a single gold triforce earring. Other pink, purple, and blue fabrics from Zelda’s dress are torn away and melt into the background, revealing Sheik’s body. He holds his arms in front of his torso, almost defensive but framed instead to display his chest, complete with top surgery scars.

I'm of course sad that Gene Wolfe is gone, but given that he wrote at least one story about an author being brought back from the dead against his will (can't recommend A Borrowed Man enough), I take solace in being able to groundlessly assert that he would definitely be against AI on principle

Obviously not an excuse but it’s worth preparing yourself for like every geriatric artist to dabble with this because they’re curious, they want the opportunity to make whatever they can before they kick it, and they will not live to see the consequences

If I made a deal with a devil it would be some nonsense like "I want to win a Smash Bros tournament through perfect play, and in exchange I will never play any fighting game again"

Mephistopheles would hate my ass

"Stop calling me," he'd say, "you're not even blaspheming the name of God"

Thank you, that is very validating

My top three Baldur's Gate 3 characters, in terms of how well-written I think they are and how they help prop up their part of the narrative:

1. Karlach
2. The Dream Visitor
3. Lae'zel

Sometimes I wonder if I have my own opinions nearly so much as I'm reacting (positively or negatively) to the opinions of the people around me

I'm not mercurial, exactly, but I sometimes feel like a shapeshifter whose internality feels less concrete than what I assume of those around me

He's genuinely the best at it!

A painting by Alex Ross of a shirtless Superman dragging an absolutely colossal plow across a comedically dusty field in what I think is Kansas but can't quite remember

Related is that it's very rare to see Superman working the land... the only time I've read him doing so is in Kingdom Come, when he farms (maybe to no one's benefit) because he's disillusioned with his true calling, violent heroism
