The kobold crew ? I just love all those funky little dragon gender guys
Tumblr media
 RQG requests #11, FUNKY LITTLE DRAGON GENDER GUYS!!!! thank you so much for your prompt!! i’d never sat to think about their individual designs before this, and as much as i prefer to plan beforehand, it felt great to just doodle and build them as i went! this is pretty much exactly the result and vibe i wanted, so i’m very happy with this one. it’s really cute! they’re all so cute!!!!! character design is great!!
 going from top to bottom we have meerk, draal and driaak, natun and tadyka, sassraa at the center, and our guy skraak on the front. what absolute lads.
 mechanical pencil on cream paper, with digital colors.
 ID under the cut!
[ID: an illustration of all the kobolds. it's drawn with mechanical pencil on yellow paper, and is colored digitally with flat, warm colors. the style is simplistic and shows everyone in profile. they're all shown in full body, and are bunched together each posing and doing their own thing. skraak is on the front, crouched down, and sassraa is just behind them, standing up straight, at the center of the composition. natun and draal are standing out to the left from behind her, while tadyka and driaak are doing the same, but opposite them, towards the right. meerk is directly above sassraa, at the cusp of the pyramid. they are all variations of red with yellow fins, horns and eyes.
  skraak is crouching and leaning towards the right, resting his left arm on his knee, and keeping balance with their right hand on the ground. he's the biggest of all the kobolds, bright red, with a longer tail and spikier, fan-like ear-fins. he's frowning and has his eyes narrowed, with his head turned to the left but looking right. he has tight black armor on his torso and long gray cloves.
  sassraa is wearing a white lab coat and goggles. her fins are spiky and pointing diagonally upwards, making them look like cel. she's facing left and is looking right, with her left arm behind her back, and her right holding a test tube up to her face. she's smiling softly.
  behind her and stepping towards the left is natun. they're small and reach to about sassraa's chest. they're leaning forwards and have syringe spear on their right hand, and are wearing plain leather armor on their torso. they have a shorter, snubby snout, small horns that curl like a ram's, and two sets of ear fins, which give them a more aquatic look. they have an attentive, eager face and look younger than the rest.
   above them is draal. they're wearing a fur-lined, dark brown coat and are holding a fang on their right hand, holding it in front of their face with a big grin. their horns and fins are sharp and short, pointing backwards in spikes.
   opposite natun is tadyka. she's a slim, lanky kobold, standing with a bit of a stoop. they're holding a syringe spear in both claws, in front of them. she has a long, less angular snout, and her fins are split into two horizontally. they have plain leather armor. her horns are short and slightly curved forwards.
   above her and opposite draal is driaak. they're as tall as draal, and are also wearing a fur-lined coat for the cold. theirs is white with light brown fur, anf they're a dark maroon rather than red. their horns are very small, and their fins are wider towards the top. they're stepping forwards and have a left claw up to their eyes, looking into the distance with a cheery smile.
   behind them all is meerk. his body is facing right but he is yelling upwards, sticking his tongue with a grin out and holding drumsticks on each claw. they have a black headband around their heard, spiky bracelets on their right arm, dark gray gloves, and a shiny leather vest. they're bright red, their fins are short and spiky, and their horns are shaped like lightning bolts. his tail pokes out from behind draal in a curl, and the tip of it is a small spiky ball, like a morning star. end ID]

panel 1: azu is coming in from the left, with an excited smile and raising a big jug of chocolate milk in her left hand. she's shown from the chest up.   AZU: I found chocolate milk!
panel 2: hamid comes in from the right, hovering. he's also grinning excitedly and is holding up a red bottle with both hands.   HAMID: I got rum!

panel 5: same angle and distribution from panel 4. in the background, azu and hamid are pouring down the milk and rum down sasha's mouth, pumping their free fists in the air. sasha stands a little unsteadily. grizzop is turning to the camera with an unimpressed, disapproving expression.   GRIZZOP: I have six kids and a mortgage. I am entirely too old for this.   AZU, HAMID: Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!   SASHA (gurgling): Blrghughblhgbh-

 ID under the cut!
[ID: a page with two drawings of zolf and grizzop. it is drawn traditionally with a mechanical pencil, and colored digitally yellows, violets and light blue. the picture above shows zolf to the left, with his back to the viewer, head hung low. only his raincoat and messy blond hair are visible. he's holding his right hand up and to the right grizzop is walking in, with his own right hand held up in response, like a sports high-five. grizzop has a confident smirk and is strutting in with bow in hand. he's wearing his long coat and silver breastplate. in the picture below, on the left zolf is the one walking in, in his season 4 look, with short white hair, beard in as single plait, and a shining breastplate beneath his jacket. he has a determined frown on his face, and is holding his hand up in the same manner as the previous picture, but with more decision. grizzop is the one with his back to the viewer now, high fiving zolf as he walks away. he has a celestial hunt themed outfit, with a long, flowing scarf, a fitted sort of vest-armor, and a long skirt-like cloth held around his waist. end ID]

Hello! For the RQG requests, bc you said to get specific, I would like to req Wilde falling asleep at his desk and Zolf trying to get him to bed withouf waking him up
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
 RQG requests #31! i was actually unsure about how to go about this one because i didn’t want to do something too literal and boring, but i also have trouble connecting with zolf and wilde. surprisingly, it didn’t take that long to think of something that felt both very me, and very them, so here it is! sometimes you just gotta get a little silly to make a drawing work. i’m very happy with these! despite how messy they look, they didn’t really need any fixing. thank you for your request! enjoy! <3
 fine brush pen and alcohol markers on  yellow paper.
 ID under the cut!
[ID: a four page comic of zolf and wilde. it's drawn with sketchy black lines and shaded with grays. zolf is depicted as strong, fat, with a serious face, blond hair pulled back in a bun, and beard in a single plait. he's missing both legs below the knee and is on a wheelchair, wearing a sweater and a folded blanket over his legs. wilde is tall and skinny, with finer features, a white button-up and dark trousers. his long brown hair done in a loose braid, and it has a broad white streak running from the top to the tips of the left side. the comic is as follows:
page 1, panel 1: zolf's profile in the foreground to the left as he passes near a doorway, and sees wilde sitting slumped over his desk. panel 2: a shot near wilde, who's shown sleeping over some writing. zolf peeks from the doorframe.
page 2, panel 2: zolf's face looking towards the viewer, with a finger to his lips, making a pensive face. around him, in blocky mauve letters, reads "what shall we do with a sleeping oscar?". page 2, bottom half, and page 3, top half, without corners: four doodles representing the possible plans.
option A is labeled "the sack of potatoes". it shows zolf moving forward with wilde slung over his shoulder, his feet dragging behind them. a list below the doodle rates: "practicality: 3/5. hilarity: 2/5. risk of waking: low".
option B is named "the reverse sack". it's the same base drawing, but zolf is smiling lightly, and wilde is slung over his shoulder but the other way around. he's flailing and cursing, kicking his legs. the list below says, "practicality: 3/5. hilarity: 5/5. risk of waking: certain".
option c is "the mummy". zolf is carrying wilde, bundled up in a sheet with little hearts, smiling in satisfaction while wilde, with only his eyes uncovered, gives him the stink-eye. the list says, "practicality: debatable. hilarity: 7/5. risk of waking: certain".
option d is "baby time". it's the same base drawing again, but with zolf looking calmer, carrying wilde bridal style. his legs hang over the side of the wheelchair, and his head is resting against zolf's. the list below reads, "practicality: 2/5. hilarity: 1/5. risk of waking: null".
page 3, bottom half: the panel is a shot from above zolf's shoulder as he wheels himself over next wilde. wilde is seen sleeping peacefully, looking tired.
page 4: a full page panel with wilde sleeping, his head resting against zolf's chin. he's fast asleep. the panel starts below zolf's eyes and only the lower half of his face is visible, as well as his left hand holding wilde's leg. text above the panel reads, "right, then. let's get ye to bed". end ID]

for requests, if you're willing to do something in the garden of yerlick? sasha the knife fairy or cel and their spouse or whatever else you prefer! your art is SO good I could look at it forever
Tumblr media
 RQG request #12, a very sweet one. thanks so much for your prompt. i’m actually surprised i didn’t go with sasha the knife fairy (which i sincerely think is a severly underrated line) since doing something about the visitations kind of intimidated me! so i let this one sit for a while and then it just sort of came out of me. the lineart on its own is sincerely very nice, and i was nervous about over-rendering it with the colors, but... i think it’s a lovely result. i’m very happy about the faces. i think they’re all the emotions i wanted. look at cel and yuuko. i might never be able to top that tenderness.
  also, i love my design for feryn, so having the excuse to bust him out was great.
  hope you like it as much as i do <3
 mechanical pencil on cream paper and digital colors.
 ID under the cut!
[ID: an illustration of the party going through the garden of yerlik, accompanied by spirits. it is drawn traditionally with a mechanical pencil, and colored digitally. it shows hamid, zolf, cel, azu and wilde walking with aziza, yuuko,  grizzop and feryn. most of them are in profile, walking from the right to the left. there are tall trunks behind the group, as well as blue betals and cold breezes blowing through. the living and the trees are colored and rendered in cold palettes of purples and blues respectively, while the dead are colored in a flat, warm orange.    from left to right, first in the walking order are aziza and hamid. hamid has his eyes closed, and his head is hanging a little. he has a sad smile on his face. his skin is brown, his hair is darker, curly and slicked back. he's freckly and has a bit of stubble on his chin. his thick coat has a fur-lined hood. just behind him, and leaning forwards to look him in the face, is aziza, who is holding his left hand with both of hers. she has long, wavy hair and expensive jewelry. she has a build and face almost identical to hamid's, rounded, short and fat. she has an elegant dress and a shawl over her shoulders. she's smiling and talking to hamid with interest.    behind them, further back just a little, are cel and yuuko. yuuko is a tall orc with tusks, gentle eyes, and hair done up in a braid that runs along his scalp and then down. he's wearing a plain button-up with an open collar, and a simple waistcoat. he's walking side by side with cel, offering them his left elbow. he's looking at them with moved adoration. cel is white and blond, hair spiky and tall. they're wearing their goggles and a long coat with fur along the sleeves and collar. they're holding onto yuuko's arm with their left hand, and have the right intertwined with his. they're nuzzling into his neck, since he's a little taller. they're smiling, looking melancholic, both sad and elated.    some paces closer to the camera, behind hamid and aziza, are zolf and feryn. zolf is closing his eyes tightly, with his head hanging down, and he's walking with hands balled into fists. his hair is short and white, and his beard is done in a single plait. his coat has no fur on it. he's strong and stocky in build. behind him and one step closer to the camera, is feryn. he has his left hand on his pocket, and tje other on zolf's arm. he's talking to him in an animated manner. they have the same build, with feryn being very slightly taller. he's wearing an old, long coat with a breasplate underneath, and his hair is long and straight, somewhat uneven. his beard is done in three braids.    behind them and behind cel and yuuko are azu and grizzop. azu is looking down and holding the heart of aphrodite necklace in both hands, sad but smiling softly. her eyes are closed. her coat with a wide fur-lined hood is only partially visible. on her shoulders sits grizzop, who also has his arms crossed on top of her head, looking onwards with a cheeky grin. his long coat, plain trousers and boots are visible. he's bald and freckly, with dangling arrow piercings hanging from his long ears.    on the far right, behind them all, is wilde. he's the only one of the living with his eyes open, and he's looking behind them, off to the right to something off-camera. his eyes are wide and he has a surprised, searching expression. his hair reaches his shoulders and is dark brown, with a streak of white on the left side. his coat has a wide fur-lined collar, and there's a rope tied around his waist, tying him to zolf. end ID]

 RQG request #14, a continuation of @crayonturtle​‘s prompt... here’s many flavors of wilde being annoying, just for you. 💙 some needed a little fixing because i got too sketchy around the eyes, but, hey, the first and last one look really good! what other npc does it like him? what an mvp.
  thank you for your requests, jerry!! <333
  fineliner on yellow paper and digital colors.
  IDs and a bonus under the cut!
[ID: a series of 8 portraits of wilde. they're drawn in black fineliner on cream paper, and colored digitally, in bold, flat colors with a little rendering. they each show him with a different, annoying expression, at a different point in the campaign. 
 in the first one, his hair is long and shiny, with a broad streak of white on the left half. he's wearing his fur-lined, dark brown coat and light makeup. he's speaking animatedly, with both eyes closed, and gesturing with his right hand. 
 in the second one, he's wearing a light purple button-up, and is leaning slightly forwards as if talking down to someone. he has a light smile and an eyebrow raised. his hair is long and slightly wavy, brown all over. 
  in the third one, he has a dark green suit and a yellow button-up with an orange cravat. he's got his chin slightly tilted upwards, looking down to his left with lips pursed into a smirk, in mocking interest.
  the fourth is a reference to the knife cat meme, and shows wilde looking back with a mean little smile and narrowed eyes, tilting his head slightly away from a knife being pointed to his face.
  in the fifth, he's shown putting a finger to his lips and the rest below his chin, watching with interest. his hair is a little shorter and wavier, his suit blue, and his shirt orange.
  the sixth shows him in a faded orange yukata, leaning forwards again with an interested, if mocking, smirk. he has a scar across his right cheek, looks paler, and his hair is shorter and droopier, not really coiffed.
  in the seventh, he has the scar and the fur-lined coat. he's looking over his right shoulder to the viewer with a wink and a sure half smile. he's pale and his hair is longer and more faded.
  in the last one, he's wearing the robes of the thespian. the chest is purple with yellow lines, the sleeves bright pink, and it's also got a neck-ruff. he's smirking confidently with a hand to his chest, raising an eyebrow. his skin has more color and he looks less gaunt. he's got lavender lipstick and his hair is shiny and wavy at the ends, with the white streak to the side. 
 the bonus doodle is an ugly scribble of wilde in the robes of the thespian, standing with blank eyes and a silly smile, surrounded by sparkles and the word "STEALTH" above him. end ID]​

‘‘So sticky...!’‘.
 and, last but most definitely not least, RQG request #38: @quite-a-misty-mystery asked for the best possible thing -everyone in the cellar of the japan inn, with special appearances of octopus cel (the second best cel probably) and azu’s guns.
 i made this one in very separated stages but it came together in a very satisfactory way with the very last handful of requests. it’s not exactly what i’d hoped, but it’s pretty damn close. i was looking for the vibe storyboard artists have when drawing scenes just for the hell of it? whether i got it or not, i’m really happy with the result, especially since i made the bulk of the lineart in the midst of not having drawn proper figures for like two months. i also really love the faces. even now i still get weird when doing an all-digital piece, so this is a good reminder that letting loose and stop pretending are great measures to trust my gut and get things done. thank you for this request! <3
  and thank you all for sticking by and pouring your ideas together for this wild ride in honor of the best campaign 💙💙💙💙 i respect all of your crafts 💙💙
 ID under the cut!
[ID: a digital, grayscale illustration of the lolomg + barnes and carter sitting together in the cellar of the japan inn. it's drawn with sketchy black lines and shaded with bold grays. it shows, from left to right, zolf, hamid, azu, barnes, carter and lastly cel, turned into an octopus, right in front of them all. the shot is low so cel is at the forefront, and the rest of the cast is seen a little from below. cel still has their goggles and is grabbing at a set of playing cards with their tentacles, cartoon flowers around their beady eyes. behind them, on the far left, zolf is half reaching towards them with his right hand, while bringing the left to his hair with a distressed expression. he's fat, muscular, has short white hair and his beard done in a single plait. he's wearing a plain undershirt and trousers. next to him and somewhat behind is hamid. he's sitting politely with his legs together and his left hand on his thigh, holding a hand of cards in his right hand. he's got an eyebrow raised, and a corner of his mouth pulled up in disgust. he's short, fat, has dark skin, a bit of stubble on his chin, and slicked back hair. much like zolf, he's only in a shirt with rolled-up sleeves, and trousers. to his side is azu, who has hastily lifted up a board game above all their heads, away from cel's tentacles, some oieces and cards scattering everywhere. she has her eyes wide snd eyebrows raised but looks only vaguely surprised. she's fat, big and muscular, with strong arms on display since she's got a sleeveless shirt on. after her is barnes, a little in the shade. he's looking perplexedly at cel, with a confused squint and drooping shoulders. his long, straight dark hair is half-undone from its warrior's knot and looks a little messy. his wide open billowy shirt is visible. lastly, in front of barnes, closer to the camera and to the far right, is carter. he's pointing down at cel with his left hand with a big smile and tears of laughter in his eyes. his hair is short and disheveled, and he has small, circular spectacles on the bridge of his nose. he's wearing a plain button-up and trousers, with an undone bowtie hanging around his neck. around them all are the stone walls of the cellar, with the grate to the cell behind them all. cel's hammock hangs above them from the ceiling. end ID]

  RQG requests #5 & #6, because not one, but TWO anons asked for cel and barnes, and i think these make for a lovely pair! one of the requests was for them on the bear specifically, so of Course i had to draw the moment of The Line in eat, drink and be merry. if that could be the start of their relationship, i thought it would be sweet to pair it up with an anniversary at sea, after the end. they had 30 years ♥
  the first one was simple but it’s really cute. the second one needed a little bit of fixing cause barnes’s head looked too big 😂 
pencil on paper and digital colors.
purple fineliner and colored pencils on paper.
   IDs under the cut!
[ID: two drawings of barnes and cel. the first one is of them at the inn on the bear, in eat, drink and be merry. it's drawn traditionally with pencil and colored digitally, in sepia and orange tones. it shows barnes to the left and cel to the right, sitting next to each other at the breakfast table, facing each other in profile. barnes has medium-dark skin and long, straight black hair half pulled up in a warrior's knot. he's wearing his commander's coat and a wide open billowy shirt. his hat is hanging from the back of his chair, to his right. he's sitting up very straight, with his hands hanging shyly to the edge of the table, close together. he has a slightly surprised expression and is blushing. to the right, cel is leaning towards him with their chin resting on their right hand, left arm slung over the back of their chair. they're looking into his eyes with an interested, confident smirk. they're wearing a fur-lined coat, long dark gloves and their goggles. their skin is pale and their hair is blond, tall and spiky. there's two empty plates pushed away from them both on the table, and a wooden glass to barnes's right. the wall behind them is plain, and the door at the center frames them together.
  the second drawing shows cel and barnes in the venga, older, watching the sunset together. it's drawn with a thin purple marker colored with a warm palette of colored pencils. they're shown from the hips up, with their backs to the viewer, but again facing each other in profile, with cel to the left and barnes to the right. they both have an arm around the other's waist, and are holding champagne glasses out to the sides with their free hands. they're smiling warmly as the sun sets behind them, right between their faces. cel maintains their design from the previous illustration, only with a few more laughter lines, a bandanna beneath their goggles, and slightly shorter hair. barnes stands a little shorter than cel, and has a beard and longer hair, the top half pulled back into a braid, and the rest still loose. his face is also somewhat wrinkled and he looks up at cel with adoration. the sea is calm and colored with orange. the sunset sky is red, orange and yellow, while the railing of the boat and the two figures are colored with darker reds. end ID]

Zooms in HELLO I am requesting a zoscar! In any way you would like to draw them
Tumblr media
  RQG request #37! any way, you say? alright, then! (:
  why are you booing me?
  this one got reaally messy cause i used a very inky permanent marker that didn’t interact too well with the wash. i was about to leave it like that because the feel was still there, but i wanted zolf’s expression to be clear, so i did some cleaning and touching up in post, and boy howdy, that sure was an experience. it wasn’t the first time i did that, but something about turning the fixit layer on and off and comparing was really wild for this piece in particular. crazy to think that at some point drawing over a traditional piece digitally or fixing them in any way was assumed to be cheating. you’re always the one doing the drawing. how could that ever be cheating? i’m glad we’ve moved past that. this one communicates the scene much better thanks to that little bit of sharpening.
 hah... raise your glass if you were here at the end. 🧃 i miss you all.

[ID: a traditional drawing of zolf and wilde. it's drawn with a thin black marker on white paper, and rendered with inkwash and digital touch-ups. it shows them in the aftermath of the last battle, on a burnt and collapsed rooftop. zolf is sat down on the left with his unresponsive legs, and wilde is falling into him from the right, burying his face on zolf's chest and wrapping his arms around his chest. zolf looks taken aback. his hair is short and white, he has dark circles and blood on his face. his cape and armor are partially visible. he also has torn trousers and high-heeled levitation boots. wilde has his back to the viewer, and only his long dark hair, robes of the thespian and a single shoe are visible. there's smoke in the background to the right, and above wilde reads "*sob* *sob*". end ID]

for requests, skraak got described with this cool cowl and mask thing in 155 that no one besides me ever seems to draw him in? so i'd love to see that in your style (maybe with 'heroic complexity'?) or for something simpler/softer, grizzop and sasha hanging out
Tumblr media
  RQG request #30! listen, i KNOW i asked for palette prompts but. i got out my dry pastels to dick around a little anddddd i kind of forgot. sorry about that, but thank you for your request!! i had indeed forgotten about his cool cowl and mask. which is a shame, because he looks really good with them. hope you like it!! i had a lot of fun with it!!

hi if you are still open to rqg requests, can i ask for any sort of azu/sasha?? I think about your drawings of them a lot and would love to see more similar stuff... 🥺👉🏽👈🏽
Tumblr media
  RQG requests #7! berry. honey. darling. my liege. how could i NOT fulfill a request such as this. i think they should get to be little messy. i made this vaguely about sight, since sasha has always worked to make herself unseen...
 thank you for this request, i needed it. i had to fix sasha’s face a bit in post so it looked like an actual kiss, but i really like the mix of digital and traditional here. also, i am cursed with the space pals special because ALL i could think of when working on this very heartfelt piece was alex saying ‘’now, if someone were to be climbed LIKE a tree...’’ and then the chorus of ‘’HHHOT’’. please release me from this hell.

[ID: a drawing of sasha and azu. sasha is shown as very pale and gaunt, with burn scars across her cheek and neck, short black hair that's longer on the front and shaved in the back, with a patch of white there. azu is tall, strong and fat, with dark brown skin, a shaved head, pointed ears, tusks and a scar on her left eyebrow.   it’s a traditional pencil sketch on yellow paper, colored digitally. it shows them kissing and holding onto each other, with sasha wrapping her legs around azu's chest and an arm around her neck. she's covering azu’s eyes with her left hand, and her own eyes are closed. azu is holding her up with a hand on her thigh and the other clutching at her back. sasha is wearing her studded leather jacket, black trousers and boots. azu has a bright pink and orange kitenge, and her left (front) arm is uncovered. her closed eye is partly visible beneath the tips of sasha's fingers, she looks passionate and falling into sasha while she curls around her. the background is the natural color of the paper, plus a broad, hot pink stripe running vertically behind the two figures. end ID]

 RQG request #20, for some reason it’s not letting me tag scatteredheroes, but, um, they asked for wilde using zolf as a head/armrest and that was actually my idea for another, less specific request of the two of them, so you beat me to it!!! 😂😂 here they are!
 proportions came off, but the vibes are there. oh, to have a cozy dwarven husband...

[ID: a traditional sketch of wilde and zolf. it's drawn with thin, sketchy black lines and shaded messily with dark gray and light brown brushpens on white paper. theyre lying in bed together, with zolf propping his head up on some pillows, and wilde to his right, resting his left forearm and head on top of zolf's. zolf is shown from the thighs up, wilde is visible only from the hips up. wilde has long, straight dark hair with a broad white streak on the left side, which is spilling over his forearm and a little over zolf's face. he has a calm, pleasant expression and is reading a book he's holding delicately with both hands. he's wearing a white button up with little vertical stripes. zolf is laying next to him comfortably, with a focused frown. he's tapping at his temple with a pencil on his right hand, and is holding a book up with the left, propping it up over his belly. his undershirt and shorts roll up a bit, and his single-plait beard pokes down his chest from behind the book.  the speech bubbles above them read: ZOLF: I'm runnin' outta synonyms for "aroused". WILDE: Lecherous, salacious, lascivious, wanton... ZOLF: I knew there was a reason I keep ye around. WILDE: *snort* end ID]

[a traditional drawing of ada. she’s as a young white woman with long, tangled black hair with kind, wide eyes, goggles on her forehead and long leather gloves. she has a dress with light, poofy sleeves, a high collar, a long skirt, and a corset that's lined with tools and from which a leather apron hangs.   she's on the center of the composition, shown from around the knees up. she's standing up from working on assorted machinery to the left of the illustration, and she's pulling her goggles off of her eyes with her right hand, while holding a wench on her left. her eyes are wide and she has a very faint smile, as though plesantly surprised. the tube holding babbage is partially visible on the background, to the right. she's shaded with light yellow, dark gray, and light brown. end ID]
