Haha they're awful <3

Inktober Day 25: Dangerous

I love never knowing what possesses me to make these comics btw(lie). Just fun

Black & white, flat penning, & sketch

And a bonus

The cover picture for the insta post

Fwhish wants sushi. Nom nom.

A short comic of Rivendell's Winterfest preparations

Inktober Day 20: Frost

Watching Scott set up for Winterfest was a delight I won't lie

Overviews of the full comic, yippee

I'm not sure about you, but having a crown pressured into your possession by a God making you fight its war just seems like a rather heavy burden.

Inktober Day 16: Angel

Extra thingies under cut, yk how it is

I could go on a very long tirade on my thoughts on Aeor, Exor, & the debilitating affects religion had on Rivendell & its descendents but maybe that's the religious trauma talking idk <3

Totes don't have a parallel post for tomorrow nope notta chance

Coin Flip

I happen to think a lot about how on edge and guarded Fwhip was when Sausage first tried coming back to talk to him when he got uncorrupted.

I'd think there were a lot of irreversible and unforgettable scars left over after the dust finally settled.

[Sketch & Pen Undercut]

Also it wasn't meant to be a It Takes Two To Tango piece buuuut

I ended up discovering the song while I was sketching a dance pose for them & you know what. Bonus motivation

Gemcyt au that stars the cod alliance from season one empire’s and where most of the other characters where crystal gems that fought in the gem war

Grian was the leader of the rebellion that worked together with Lizzie a diamond in disguise to fake her shattering and just like in cannon the diamonds retaliated by the corrupting all the gems still on the planet 

Lizzie used her weapon to block the blast and like rose she was able to grab two others before it hit

Joel who never left her side and jimmy who stayed close to joel 

the story takes place 5,300 years after the war and starts when a modern human historian named pix befriends the survivors 

lizzie a pink diamond disguised as a rose quartz that is a scammer and is the one that makes their fake ids and legal papers 

joel a green off color pearl that was originally quiet but over the years became more outspoken and confident 

and jimmy a defective clumsy lapis that loves human board games and organic animals 

Pix questions them about the gem artifacts and ruins he has been studying and as they get more comfortable around him they start info dumping about the caste system and the war

It steadily gets more and more personal until it gets to the point where he becomes their unofficial therapist 

Then the home world gems start coming to earth again and pix becomes a diplomat that ends up using Lizzies status as a diamond to defeat the other diamonds by talking to them like Steven did in Steven universe 

this au is heavy inspired by @playername-player-of-games and @marblegroves

my gift to @rain-bow88 for the @esmp-gift-exchange! I drew the Seablings! I actually finished the piece a while ago, so though if I were to do it again now I would definitely do it differently, I also find it really fun to look back at how I drew just a few months ago, like a little art time capsule, and I’m really proud of the concept behind it!

As I said, I drew this a while ago, so I don’t entirely remember the thought process behind it, but the general idea is that I had been watching Jimmy’s pov of empires, and I was thinking it might be fun to consider why the music disc was so important to him, and the fact that he, a fish person, liked the sound of it, but everyone else found it weird, reminded me of stories where mermaids sound really amazing under the water but not so much in the air, so I had the idea that maybe it was the same song that Lizzie used to sing to him while she waited for him to hatch, but that it sounded unappealing to all the other emperors because they could only hear it above water. He couldn’t really remember where he knew the song from, but it was comforting to him (in my headcannons). Hopefully that makes sense lol, I think I’m explaining myself poorly. Idk, I hope you like it!

I was rewatching Joel’s esmp 1 because I wanted to. So I did a little drawing.

That’s all! Just a silly doodle, I’ve decided that not every drawing I post has to be something special, sometimes it can just be something simple like this lol.

Heyyyyyyy...... I have some old art! (I forgor to post this during a week challenge that I didn't finish :/)

The challenge was empires and so enjoy a lil Shrub for your troubles

designed a few empires tarot cards for the battleship exchange! they were a lot of fun to draw, i loved doing the relaxed painterly sketches so much.

Would

"I am the mastermind, he's my accomplice"

"You're only still alive because I made a promise"

Fit FH in Crowns of Antlers (fic by scribblingdragons)

I was just scrolling tiktok and heard it and popped the idea,

if not what do you think would fit them?
