Ian & Cerno, a commission for @/thewitchiness on twitter 💘

Materials used: Pen, watercolor, marker, colored pencil, & gouache.

And a closeup 👀 Ooooooh I need to use more hatching with pencils!!!

Surely I've only seen a tiny fraction of the Gortash/Dark Urge theories and headcanons out there, but here's mine and I've never seen anybody else say it 👀

I like to think that pre-amnesia, Gortash was down bad for Durge but it was 100% one-sided. Durge respected Gortash or whatever but outside of their work, he was not interested at all. Gortash probably came on pretty strong but Durge either ignored it or repeatedly rejected him.

So, that's how it was, but then Durge disappears and comes back with no memories. And Gortash sees an opportunity. Maybe a normal person would be like "Oh perhaps he'll like me back this time," but no. Instead Gortash attempts to gaslight Durge into thinking there had been something more between them, which might trick Durge into actual reciprocation. Thus: Gortash's highly suggestive dialogue without plainly saying they were in a relationship. Gortash wants Durge to read between the lines and make that assumption without Gortash actually lying about it.

It's so yucky and I love it. LOL. I think it works well for Gortash because, I mean, he's pathetic and evil and he would gaslight the object of his affection. It doesn't totally work with Durge's "Prayer for Forgiveness", however it does work with Durge thinking Gortash's name sounds "sickeningly" familiar 😂 Somewhere deep in the back of his mind... "Oh, that fucking guy who's always making bedroom eyes at me" 😂😂

Anyway. That's my headcanon, teehee. Maybe someday I'll draw Gortash with his fucking puppy eyes and Durge sneering back. 🥰

(To be clear I also enjoy them being madly in love with each other, in a fucked up way or an incredibly soft way. I enjoy almost every single interpretation of Gortash that exists. He's so wonderfully versatile 🥰🥰🥰)

Was listening to 90s music and "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" by Celine Dion came on. Seems like a pretty good Durgetash song, maybe. 😂

The two mini paintings I did of Gortash and Karlach 🥰 I'm obsessed with the Gort one lol. I need to make a big painting of him too... I have an idea but I'm scared. 😂 Usually I don't wanna do backgrounds and shit but he deserves it!!!! 🤔💦💦💦

I still need to make an ATC-size sample (it's been so long since I made an ATC that I really do need to make a new one) and I may as well continue with BG3 characters...

Astarion maybe!!?? 👀 Tbh I don't love him that much but I do feel something when he's covered in blood 🤪

Timelapse of a mini Gortash painting! 🥺 He's so tiny and evil 🥰

omg listen I'm definitely in the "Gort's face doesn't need mods because he's perfect" camp, but I'm tolerant of light modding. Making him look a lil younger or whatever. Giving him a good night's sleep. I'm not into that but it doesn't offend me.

HOWEVER, giving him a NOSE JOB? STOP IT!!! Leave his nose ALONE 😭

My kind of Durgetash tbh

All this booping is totally unsustainable. But I'm trying my best!!! 😂

Hi Casey - I was wondering how frequently you open commissions? I can't do so right now (lots of life things happening that require additional money), but would love to do so in the future. Thanks!

Hello! Commissions are pretty much open indefinitely. 💖 They are my main source of income right now!

The only reason I would close commissions is if I suddenly got a lot of them, and then reopen after making some progress. But that hasn't happened in a long time, it's been very slow these days actually (which is the case for many artists I think).

I suppose in a few years I might re-evaluate my life and stop taking commissions 😂 But for the foreseeable future, I'd like to keep doing them! Thank you for asking 🥰

Heyo~ I'm open for commission! I'd love to paint your D&D characters, OCs, Tavs, etc! I can do fanart too of course 🥰 Here are my most recent comms as an example 💖 You can find the commission form here ✨ Reblogs are greatly appreciated!! 🙏

A mini watercolor of Karlach!! 🥰 (It's her datamined face btw hehe) I'm not really into timelapses but I was testing the camera on my phone and it was SUCH a pain in the ass working with these files so you WILL look at all of the footage... lol.

This is a sample of a new commission size I'll be offering. I think there will be ATC size (2.5 x 3.5 inches), the size above (kind of like an "extended" ATC, roughly ~3 x 4 inches), and then something between these and my standard commission size, so maybe... 4 x 6?
