Finally got to finish this piece! Raphael and @sky-kiss 's very own Joi from her amazing fic which I highly recommend giving a read (in fact go read all her stuff honestly)! Referenced after Leyendecker's Couple Dancing.

More prof Raphael wips for the havers

Raphael as a professor in a contemporary setting? Who could've seen this coming.

I thought for a while that your banner was Elias Bouchard and now that I've realized it's not I'm very interested to see your take on him (if you ever happened to get into the Magnus Archives). Not a request more a recommendation lol

Also your Raphael gives me LIFE my boyfriend bought me two prints of Italy vacation Raphael and they're hanging next to my coat rack. I'm obsessed

YOOO that is awesome! I'm stoked you guys liked it enough to get the prints (big shout out to your bf too wooo ✨✨✨)!

Haha I have gotten MANY comments about how some of my Silco and Peter Cushing stuff gave Elias Bouchard vibes. Even though I'm not familiar at all with the series and the character, from the images/art I've seen, he certainly seems to be up my alley 😂 Maybe one day.

I’m sorry people are being mean! I’m glad you’re here; it always brightens my day when I see your art on my dash. I totally get it though, I’ve had bad experiences with anon too. Some people’s children, mirite?

Eyy sorry if this was late! Tumblr notifs being weird as per usual.

Thanks for the very nice message! Some people are terrible but there are also very cool, awesome people. Thanks again!

sending a ✨ positive ask to undo the shittiness

sometimes you just gotta hit that anon off/block

is there something you're looking forward to in 2024? a book a movie anything

♥

Aaahh thank you ❤️❤️

I am looking forward to getting more productive in general. Late last year has been a good start, so I'm hoping to keep it going. Hopefully 😅

Gonna turn off anonymous asks for the foreseeable future. Some of y'all out there need to learn that being absolute shitheads will not get you what you want. If you have the capacity to send rude messages to complete strangers under anonymity, than I would assume deep down you know it's a shitty thing to do. And YET.

So, massive apologies to the very nice peeps who do come in under anon. These entitled babies ruined it for everyone else, but it must be done. Just know, I will always appreciate the lovelies!

Edit: Big shout out to anyone being cool in the replies (in any of my stuff really). Just know I see you and appreciate you. I just can't reply back because tumblr being tumblr.

i just found your blog and jesus fuck am i glad that i did because your raphael is…. RAFAVEBANAMABVSSHAHALDDJH.

it makes me feral.

anyways your art is absolutely gorgeous and inspires me to make more; i can’t wait to see what else you create 🫶 have a lovely day babe!

Aww thank you so much for the very sweet msg! I'm glad you enjoy the art that much! ❤️ I hope you have a good one too!

Ayo bro i just found your blog and your art is STUNNING marry me tf you're so talented ily

Sorry for the late reply!!

This is very sweet, nonny! I'm very flattered but I am taken. Taken by THE CLUTCHES OF FICTIONAL UNROMANCEABLE SILVER FOXES.

No, but seriously thank you, this was hilarious and lovely ❤️✨

Young Raphael learning the ways of his kind through abuse, young raph learning the ways of his world through betrayal and anguish, young raph learning not to fall in love with the people you make deals with, young raph learning that the world is black and white and there are no saviors, young raph learning that it is every devil for themselves.

🙃😢🙃😢🙃😢

Oh man, I got HELLA deep in thought whenever I think and imagine Raphael's childhood. Like, no wonder dude's a walking book of issues 🥲

thanks for not putting any sort of nsfw label on that art like I totally wanted to see that shit it's sooooo cool that you didn't give enough of a shit to even tag it as nsfw or nsft so my filter would catch it

Hey anon, I would've definitely tagged it as such if you were just you know, nice about it. It would've been SOOOO easy for me. But I suppose that was super difficult for you, so guess what?

I'm not gonna tag it.

Fuck off.

I love love Love your art, it's really beautiful and full of amazing detail and textures. I especially love the new piece with Tav/Raphael, oh my god. But I have a migraine & I'm sleep deprived, so when I came to compliment you & saw your commission info post, I kept misreading every c-word (commission, character, colour, etc) as "chewed", like we could order a print and you'd chew on it 😭 I thought I'd share that to give you a chuckle, but otherwise your art is breathtaking and I can feel the passion and dedication to your craft in every piece ❤️❤️❤️

NONNY... This was the funniest ask I've had in ages. Thank you very much for the sweet words and the laughs but also OMG go rest 😂😂😂

@sky-kiss and I had a convo concerning size diff stuff and uh... Yeah. She's got a ficlet here!

More early and additional sketches (including a more ahem exposed angle for this piece) can be seen on my Patreon!
