Getting to know you (again)
Steddie Big Bang Proj 017
I'm vibrating with excitement because I can finally announce that for the @steddiebang2024 I'll be working with the incredibly talented @boybonebird!!!!!!!
Under the cut a little snippet!
A business proposition, that’s how his father has defined it.
A business proposition: as if it wasn’t going to change Steve’s life entirely.
Richard Harrington dared say to him that he was too spoiled and that, for once, he had to do something for his family after his family did everything for him. For a moment Steve thought he meant to ask him to join the family company, which would have been surprising, but not as much as the real thing he asked of him: use his good looks to get a good marriage.
A normal person would have screamed that he was crazy, that he wasn’t going to get married to a stranger just because Richard Harrington thought that a good name could have cleaned the shadow from their family’s past. A normal person would have left storming out of the room and slamming the door behind him promising not to get back. A normal person. Not Steve. Steve took his glass of whisky, swirled the amber liquid in the glass, gulped it down, and accepted the proposition because he is nothing more than a fucking coward and the idea of leaving his comfortable life scares him more than the idea to marry someone he has never seen before.
He hasn’t even taken a look at the picture his father has slid toward him, he has just left quickly with an excuse and has run back to his apartment like a fucking child. Now, finally, at home, Steve grabs a bottle of beer from his fridge and goes to the terrace, trying to breathe for a moment.
The view from the penthouse is always incredible. He looks down at the lights of the cars that move like swarms of little fireflies and sips some beer. The drink in his hand is getting warm, while he swirls the bottle mindlessly, sitting on the ledge, staring at the town moving frantically under him.
One wrong movement and Steve Harrington, scion of the Harrington family, will be just a bloody mess on the pavement, and finally free from his family obligation.
The chirping of the birds that are flying in the white metal cage in his living room, attracts Steve’s attention. His mother has a huge pagoda-shaped aviary at their mansion and she has chosen that couple of birds, especially for Steve. They are lovebirds, or at least that's how they are called, Steve is pretty sure that his mom knows their scientific name and all the other very important information that concerns them, what he knows is that they are colorful, they sing and that they are supposed to be together for life or some shit like that.
Do they know that they are in a cage, Steve wonders. Do they know that there is so much more than the little space they are allowed to fly in? What would they do if given the opportunity to fly away? Would they just leave or would they stay?
Forever ago I promised a part 2 to my comic balloons and tails pack, and finally I have made it!
I'm sure a part 3 comic pack will come at some point as well, but I've put up a bunch of nice effects/expressive hand drawn/painted balloons and outlines up for this month's star tier reward!
A new batch of clean, textless pages, a full sized illustration, and the full sized early sketch to the chapter 3 cover have also gone up.
I almost defeated that migraine yesterday, but we ended up finishing up the pack today...so, if you're interested, you can hop over and grab it!
get it here! RIGHT HERE. as well as all of my other asset and brush packs! woohoo!
Steddify How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Eddie is the Grinch. Steve is Martha May. Dustin is, of course, Cindy Lou Who. Someone else can write it or draw it. It's up for grabs. The image just popped into my head.
Plus, Steve in the Martha May outfits! Plus: Dusty Lou Who. 😂
Art for the fic The Heart of Loch Nora by @steviestits for the SteddieBigBang2023.
Note: The comic only shows clips of the larger story, for the full thing I highly suggest reading the actual fic on AO3. It's so SO good I can't recommend it enough, just be sure to read the tags because it is a horror fic.

Why are people so stupid I just saw an ig reel of an artist being like "tee hee we weren't allowed to record at this nude life drawing session but I took a risk!!! Here's my processes I videoed" you idiot thats such a huge violation of that model's privacy. They're not saying you can't record because they hate you they're saying that you can't record to keep the model out of a potentially exploitative environment that's such a shitty thing to do. They have rules for those sessions for a reason and as an artist you should be trying to make the situation as respectful and comfortable as you can for the model you're drawing and that includes keeping your fucking camera device in your pocket
Also they put a kind of nsfw song over it and idk how to articulate this but it feels really shitty to take a person who's literally just doing their job as a figure model and not only record when asked not to but then also portray them in a sexual light for no reason. Like life drawing sessions are not sexy in the slightest and the models are not there to be sexualised and its not right to do that to them. If you can't abide by the boundaries established in life drawing sessions then you don't respect the model that you're drawing and you shouldn't be there in the first place because it's a very delicate situation that can go south and hurt people very easily
Embracing the fixation this October -- come join me! Draw, write, whatever! Interpret the prompts however you like, for whatever characters/imagery, go nuts!
