Colors of Fodlan - Faerghus (Part 2 of ?)

I don't want us to change, don't want us to chip away.... Could we stay in bloom?

Every time I listen to that song, it reminds me of how Aya views her relationship with Khalan. after some time - and especially after he starts showing signs of illness - Aya realizes that things are changing in their lives and doesn't want to accept those changes.

so she wants to hold onto the past; the way things were before - when their familial relationship only first started to blossom. when she wasn't afraid of what the future might hold or afraid of potentially losing Khalan. when things were fun and new and the responsibilities of growing older didn't weigh down so much on her.

I tried to portray that sort of 'moment of reflection' with this image, loosely basing it off of this particular entry in Khalan's Journal: a moment that's both serene and comforting, yet somber at the same time. but despite those complicated emotions that Aya is struggling to deal with, Khalan always does his best to give her the love and support that she needs to help her through it, as every good big brother should;;

gosh I love these two so, so much;; everything about them gets me right in the feels every time <3

Please excuse me sending this to you at 5 am but alas I was hit with a sudden silly thought jcbcjhdsj

The fact that we’re friends in our shared universes but I only have one s/i is so funny to me cause like,, every universe I pop into I’m like “woo time to hang out with my buddy Emile who I’ve met multiple iterations of” but for you it’s a relationship that’s locked for each universe. Like,, King Devin and Dorian are two completely different friends in completely different worlds for your s/is but for me you’re just,, my orange buddy whose different versions I happen to run into every now and then as I travel the multiverse,,,

I had this little headcanon that you were just multiverse faceblind; So no matter how many times you met me (or any other characters who may exist multiuniversally) I always seemed like a completely new person every time. I even had a little comic idea sketched out I was gonna finish when I finally got out of surgery recovery

But also you just like. Knowing it's me every time is equally as funny. Especially when comparing the Mes. Like Jelly Emile is dead Silent but Mario Emile cannot shut up. Pokemon Emile's the chillest Go With the Flow man you'll ever meet, MLP Dragon Emile is stressed 25/8. Sonic Emile's dumb as a box of rocks, Deltarune Human Emile is majoring in 5 subjects at once. I contain multitudes.

Platonic Soulmate kind of thing where you just keep bumping into me everywhere you go. Friends in every timeline.

hello everyone! now that team picking is out i wanted to say that i am participating in artfight for the first time this year on team werewolves! (its the color blue. i love the color blue.)

you can find my profile here! https://artfight.net/~crescentfool

sometimes you just need to draw blade getting stabbed because it's what he would want 🙂

me when i ship zhaohan 😔 there's next to no content unless i'm just not looking in the right spots

be the change you want to see in the world my man.... if i can trick people into thinking masadai is real then i know you can rally the troupes with them lovable goobers......

it’s him…. mr whore vegas

also YES this is the humphrey bogart pose bc i saw some old art from somebody who didn’t survive the tumblr purge where they made benny look like bogart and i went feral for like three hours

I forgot theres like 3 schools that all let out where I had to go lol getting a forced break/snack time until all the busses and cars from them are gone lol

i feel like if it were not for the fact that the people there are all busy shopping and often likely cannot afford to stop to be easily drawn, costco would be a gold mine for references if you wanted to practice drawing a wide variety of people

how are you so good at so many things. i am in awe

AGAGABSHBSHS WHAT DO YOU MEAN!!!???? I SUCK AT A LOT OF THINGS!! I CAN DRAW AND ANIMATE (sorta) AND THATS ABOUT IT!!!!!!! IVE GOT 1.5 SKILLS (animations really just a lot of drawing with extra steps) IN TOTAL

okay actually i take that back. ive got 2.5 skills because i know how to juggle.

"Th' difference between just Makin' Shit and trying to make something look good's hell.." She's tossing aside a piece of crystal that looks like she might have been trying to make it look like something but gave up.

There's another piece already crystallizing in her hand, being fine-tuned agonizingly slow as she grumbles to herself-- then curses as it juts out to just another chunk before being tossed aside.

This seems to be the easiest style for me to draw in without needing a reference or anything. So I think I might try to develop it more. I mean simplistic styles seem to be sort of where things are now anyway. So if I learn how to get more poses and stuff in I should be okay maybe lol

i went to sleep an hour ago but i can’t actually fall asleep for some terrible mixture of anxiety and caffeine and being scheduled wrong from all of the winter break sleeping incorrectly compared to school. anyway i have a stomachache (anxiety variety) scary high heart rate (anxiety variety? caffeine variety? just my heart being stupid as usual? probably all of the above) and also terrified of living with my dad for the next week. and i was drinking a caffeinated beverage past 5 pm today because. i was really stupid and let that happen without thinking about it. so there are so many things getting in between me and a good nights sleep to get to school in the morning. doesn’t help that i’m stressed about school itself too or that my irl friends are constantly hanging out like literally all of them i try not to be offended if like tara and elanor hang out together without me cause everybody is allowed to have smaller on their own engagements but it’s like literally every friend i have!! like i have maybe fifteen friends total in my school and there was like ten of them were all ice skating together on new years and went to a play together and did all of these things that i wish i were invited for. and so i’m stressed about a lot of things at once and it’s no good

Hey crescent!!

I was so busy during new year that i only had the time to look at your art journey now, and I have to confess i actually saved a bit of yours on my phone uwu

I look forward to your art next year! (Pls feed my p3 demons), and if it isn’t too much to ask, is there any tips to getting gud at drawing? Id like to draw myself but im not sure where to start TwT

Anyways, happy belated new year! Hope to see you more this year! :3

hi bkza555! thank you so much for the kind words, and happy new year to you! i'm really happy that my p3 arts could keep you fed throughout 2022, ryomina and p3 brainrot is too strong! 💛💙

re: wanting to draw, i'd say go for it! 🙌💪 i think that it can be a fun skill to develop, and i'd recommend starting with things that YOU want to draw / see art of (because making yourself happy w/self-indulgent things is great!).

drawing advice under the read more, because this kinda got long oops 🥴

i would say that being resourceful and patient make for good qualities to have in your learning journey (among many other things)! art can be a rollercoaster with how we feel towards our own work ("WOAH I DREW THAT" vs "NOO WHY DO IT LOOK LIKE THAT").

so basically: striving to have a good mindset + drawing something that interests you will keep art as a sustainable practice!

if you're looking to get better at art- i highly recommend finding some kind of visual reference and trying to recreate them / understand them! i wouldn't be where i am without them 😭

i usually focus on photo references but i also look at drawn references + 3d models sometimes (mostly for likeness purposes).

for photo references, i like to look through pinterest + stock photo sites + google as a starting point! or you can set up a tripod with a camera and pose in front of it if searching the web doesn't exactly have what you want...

and if you want to draw persona characters, i think i've seen their 3d models for both miku miku dance (MMD) + xnalara which can be helpful if you want to see them from all sorts of angles (when official artwork doesn't suffice). hell i have to regularly look at manga panels of ryoji sometimes because i forget how to draw his hair every time LMFAO ITS SO DIFFICULT... 😭

honestly, trying to provide any concise art advice within an ask is difficult since the practice of breaking down references can be hard to convey over text. so i'll link to my art summary from 2021, which has a list of resources that you could check out!

it might be helpful to watch videos/streams of drawing too! or any tutorials that walk you through the basic shapes.

AND I SWEAR i am almost done talking BUT! the most important part is to have fun and focus on getting what you personally want of the art process. i hope that the list of resources can help if you want to find some guides on How To Do Things.... if u need any clarification feel free to leave a reply or come by the inbox again!

thank you again for your kind words! may 2023 be kind to you, and see you some other time! 👋

Dizzy-suke?

I just wanted to practice drawing Sasuke's Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan but somewhere along the line I got carried away.
