Thank you!! Unfortunately true rest is far away yet, but at least there'll be less stress :} Fleeting love expressions & worship our beloved yes 🤝 always glad to witness, will always love to see again!

And i also love this red glint in her eyes — even though her expression is overall neutral and unthreatening, this does add for some air of danger! Also exceptionally good lighting here - lovely how it enhances all the warm colours and cold shadows! Very pretty!

And i love the texturing on the metal of the crown itself, and how dimly the light reflects off of it, and how the eartips are enclosed in metal too — it's a really good design detail (rarely seen on elf-eared characters unfortunately — it's so cool!), very nice!

and i love this tiny circula texture that you did for those small golden ornaments — I've held such jewellery in my hands before and i can certainly say that this detail inwokes the very exact feeling — good job!

🙂↕️✨ So beautiful! She is the false prophet, yes? Is ye than it's very nice to see her less tense then the last time! Precious lady! Love how sharp the red markings look, and how every eye in the background is different from another,

(Also sorry for getting lost in the void for 2 weeks, didn't mean to — the uni's time management is 👎❌ and we've recieved more hw & projects during that time than in last 3.5 months. At least I've defended the coursework for a 9)

but it remains so gentle and respectful and seemingly holding much joy to them both - with how they smile in this half-embrace!
Absolutely adorable work! Oh and the matching crowns too - very cute!

And i love how in the last frame here they're showing so much more of their closeness compared to fleeting gestures in previous ones,

It's also so so so pretty how she and Obelerio interact here, praying and being prayed to, holding hands and kissing indirectly, kneeling and kissing her skirts while she touches his forehead in what looks like a small blessing (i love the tiny sun-ornament here, very cute),

and how the veil attached to it feels so substantial and heavy but not too much — just like a highest quality expensive 4-ply fabric! And i love this jagged-rounded central ornament and the eye patterns on fabric and accessories!

I love those rich red accents and i love how you've paired golden and silver plating in here so well that it works amazingly together without clashing or overshadowing either tone,
And i love this big nice hat with a thin crown

Hi??!? Omg this is so beautiful??! I love how Cass' armour looks so different yet so similar to her usual one — with the overall shape matching almost exactly but the details being very much different, the colours lighter and brighter and crispier,

Is this corvid-looking bird a messanger from Obelerio? Did she nick that cape off him? Looks more like his style and colour than her usual reds and short practical garments, m? Oh and i love the details on this vine around the window above her! Gorgeous artwork!
comment in response to

I think it's also adorable how Cass is so casually holding her sword by the blade and resting it's guard at her collarbone — very relaxed and not expecting any fighting, and i love gow that tiny smile of hers reaches her eyes fully!

because it's dimmer than this cathedral-looking part of the building which seems to be in a town square! The uneven old brickwork on the building and the cracked tiles of the road with flowers blooming through the gaps make it feel very cozy and well-lived-in!
comment in response to
post
Omg this is soooo cool and precious!! 🥺🤲 Absolutely love the background details and architecture, the composition is so nice and it's got such nice relaxed vibes because it's very apparent that Cass is sitting somewhere in a small quiet alleyway

Thank you dearly!! This thing is technically like a reinforced crop-top with sleeves but it is only separate from gambeson for game reasons — because if this thing has a chance of getting remade in-game, i would prefer to have posed gloves as a separate item, rather than a posed coat!

Did i screw up some of the angles and perspective details? Yes. Will i attempt fixing them at some point? Probably yea. Am i extraordinarily proud of how she turned out? Absolutely! It's like a №3½ digital artwork I've ever made, and it even looks good!

Also this is technically an iteration of my other oc, Nerai, but this is by no means whatsoever her usual clothes, that's basically more of a view on her as witch-knight of Ishtall (the witch, in white n green hat), than it is of her as a Chimerian Queen that she is
comment in response to

I'm a fan of Dark Souls & historical armour in general, thus the witch is a knight, but the tidal motif was actually prompted by in-game recreation of Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus".
comment in response to
post
and i've made armour as closely resembling actual 15th sentury german gothic armour as possible, cuz historical armour is amazing, and it is sad to see the lack of it in modern media (with the unfortunate abundance of stiletto heels and open-cleavage breastplates in female armour designs instead).
comment in response to
post
This artwork is based on the concept of the moon influencing tides, so i made a gothic witch-knight lady to embody the power and magic held by such a thing. I have integrated the elements resembling stained glass and moon & sea motifs into gemstones of the sword and the fabric parts of the outfit,

Also yay the little firelink flowers and all those soft textures and soft lighting and the burn scars on firekeepers' hands and how soft their hair looks! Very precious much thanks 🙏🥺✨
comment in response to
post
They look kinda like as if they were interrupted mid relaxed chatter and possibly some hair-braiding, and i love how they both seem relatively well-rested! More good things to our good ladies!
comment in response to

and how they look focused on someone behind the frame and you can tell they look at the same spot even though u can't see Firekeeper's eyes because of her mask!

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 Anastacia yay!!!
So precious uuuu 🤲🤲🤲 I'm so glad i can see this with my own eyes right now it's so cute! I absolutely love how gentle their touch is and how they half-hug and hold hands

and i love the tiny specs of that warm lighting on his palms and the contrast this has with the overall dark colours of the painting! Amazing!!
comment in response to
post
Also the colours on that halo?? Gorgeous¡ And the rays of light spreading from it, and how they turn into division lines between the tiles, and how those three eyes are looking upwards just as he does,

I love how gnarly and wooden those creatures look, especially the bottom one, and how the upper one feels like a texture of a bat's wing, and i love how the tiny Obelerio at the bottom here looks like a figure of a saint from an icon in a medieval chronicle :} tiny

It feels like something new, and the angle we have here makes it seem like we're watching the scene below standing atop of cathedral's second floor, beyond the railing, and it's a really specific feeling, so i applaud u for getting such an angle so precisely! 👏👏👏
comment in response to

Woah!! Such an interesting artwork — i love the unusual composition here, with the heaviest weight distributed at the top of the painting with the form of this winged demon?-looking creature!
comment in response to

Love the sketches and the textures and colourwork on the main thingy, the clouds and wheats are absolutely crisp and natural-looking, gorgeous!! Beautiful artwork!!

And seemingly helping eachother to dress up? Or just chit-chatting in casual atmosphere! And all those tiny gestures — you've done an amazing job handling weight and fluidity of touch and movements here, so alive so joyful!

They're both so tender and alive and gentle with eachother, holding hands and leaning in to wisper something and getting forehead kisses squinting like kittens n smiling from it and sharing one cloack and getting the other one's hair tangled with their own!

It is indeed gorgeous and a very noticeable progress in this style, even with however amazing the first trial was! 🌟

I also love the 3rd-eye ornament and how sly and "I'm telling u a secret" she looks and how light passes through her ears, very cute!
comment in response to

with how light encompasses her and almost doesn't even land on any of the knights, and how the knights themselves are rigid & static & unimportant enough to not even be in the frame fully💯
