Tim Downie may be Gale, but Jennifer English is not Shadowheart.

finally getting around to watching the bg3/highrollers dnd stream from this morning and TIM AND DEVORA SHITTING ON EACH OTHER AS GALE AND LAE’ZEL besties in every universe thank you larian

i knew nothing about dnd before bg3, but i watched the highrollers stream and neil's enthusiasm was incredibly convincing, now i'm reading the drizzt books lol. got really hooked, ngl. there's so much more books and everything else than there was to da, so it's kinda overwhelming, but what i read so far is very interesting, esp all the drow lore, terrible as they were. do you plan on reading some of the books at some point? i'd love to hear your takes on them if you do.

I might, who knows. I certainly spend quite a lot of time just browsing through the fan wiki.

i havent watched the highrollers dnd stream but finding out that shadowheart and laezel are apparently coparenting an imp is the only thing i need to know. shartzels stay winning

After watching the special BG3 cast Highrollers streams twitch is now like "oh you like watching ppl play DnD? Here's a bunch of them for you to watch." Jokes on you Twitch, I don't like it. That was an anomaly. We're gonna have to shut that algorithm thought down real quick now

On my art stream, I made a simple gif animation of Nova, a character from the HighRollers DnD show :3 *sparkles*

Final evaluation

The most enjoyable part of making my island themed bottle stopper sculpture was the initial details in the clay and then the final painted details. I enjoyed this part the most because of how much expression and freedom I could have with creating a sculpture entirely from scratch. I feel like I got on well and have produced a successful level of sculpting that I am personally incredibly happy with. I feel that this project does fit with the brief well because it very clearly fits with the theme and story of my Island.

I initially generated ideas for this project from listening to a podcast called High Roller’s DnD (Dungeons and Dragons) which is created by a group of influencers called The Yogscast*. Their Dungeons and Dragons’ character that really inspired me was from a ‘Homebrew Race’ called the Guardians. One of the main characters called Sentry was a robotic character from the guardian race. My initial robotic design was influenced by her back story and fit well with my island’s backstory and theme, so I decided to try and incorporate this for my own work. The other program that I took heavy inspiration from was an old anime called Neon Genesis Evangelion which inspired the genderless nature of my character. Within this anime there are giant mechanoid creatures called EVAs which are primarily used as tools and are not treated as a human. This contrasted with Sentry’s very human nature, so I decided to combine these two elements to create a genderless robot who looks like a human to appeal to the inhabitants of the planet, but its only function is to fight and protect.

My sculpture does and doesn’t conform to a typical gender stereotype we see in anime because of its unique human and non-human qualities. However, it does lean towards being very stereotypically male because as a protector it has a muscular torso. I have tried to offset this by having a thinner midsection which would more resemble a woman. This is the part that doesn’t conform to a typical gender stereotype because women as robotic sentinels aren’t quite common in films or TV shows. This pairing of male and female characteristics enables me to confidently call my design human but genderless.  This is breaking the typical stereotypes found in the anime films but reflects what is going on in society now. You can choose the gender you want it to be and relate to its human features too.

When it came to researching and generating ideas, I struggled to organise my thoughts before making. I created the physical sculpture first because I am more confident in my creative modelling skills rather than my sketching skills. For the next project I am going to develop my drawing skills and focus on sketching some ideas first. I feel I have missed the opportunity to see what my peers are doing which would have helped me organise my thoughts and ideas. Overall, I am happy with how my sculpture came out and enjoyed making it.
