Some reasons under the cut ^^; if, you know, that's something you look for
Where will your commission fee go?
Erm. I got laid off actually. So. This is gonna be my main source of income while I look for a job. I have also been attending more events recently, so some of the earnings will go to helping me attend more events. As is usual these days for people my age, I'm in a lot of debt and would really really like to not be in debt any longer.
Character sheet commissions?? Is that FR??
Yes. I actually just need to finish samples. But, I can definitely just make use of the current time to take on some commissions in the meanwhile. Maybe I'll be ready to for character sheet commissions by May. March would be great but I have a big event in April to prepare for.
[old] Why are you posting on your personal account?
I find that my personal account has more "reach". It's just that my art account is a bit neglected right now. (And IG and FB have been my main platforms recently) Though I will be reblogging this post on there. haha.
[old] I don't have money, how can I support?
Thank you for reading so far! The way the economy is so far, there's no pressure to buy. The best way to support is by reblogging. And if there so happens to be someone looking for an artist, you can send them my way if you feel like my art style suits them. ^^
I was feeling agitated and artblocked yesterday so I decided to give my brain a rest by watching TV and then the next thing I knew these were in front of me
This has never been officially confirmed, but there are several indications that Tartah was abandoned by his family. Or perhaps they have unofficially cut off contact with him.
Although he isn't studying under any teacher yet, Tartah lives only with his grandfather. It's likely that when his Silverwash came to light, Nolnoa was the only family member who didn't give up on him.
Whatās more, Nolnoa taking Tartah in caused them to lose a lot of social connections. It got to the point where they had to ask Qifrey's atelier to help run the stall, even though they were just regular customers. They literally had no one else to turn to for help.
Itās a very subtle and easy to overlook, but it starkly illustrates just how cruel society can be toward someone who had no control over their condition and also toward those who try to help them.
people are like you just need to apply to 10 jobs a day meanwhile each of the jobs want you to write them 1500 words of uniquely tailored sycophancy & then manually input your cv into their custom application form 3 different times
The reason Qifrey is so awesome and relatable is because he wants to live. Man in his twenties being ominous as hell and breaking laws left and right and messing with forces beyond comprehension and lying to the cops and doing horrible things to the people who love him most and constantly destroying his own mental health and you peel back the layers and the motivation is "God I want to grow old someday."
God and the way in which he transforms from āI have to live because Olly wants me to liveā to āI want to liveā is so incredibly important to me. He was ready to give up, to let the Silverwood take him but Olly stops him. Olruggio traps him in a hellish pact because he wants his friend to live and he knows his friend wants to as well, Qifrey just has to come to that realisation.
The way all of Qifrey's signature spells aren't just water, they're water formed into sculptures, flowers and creatures and creations. The way his most signature spell, the water dragon, is a spell he crafted for Beldaruit, a spell that does nothing at all. It just looks pretty. The way Agott is fascinated with the old creature glyphs, because they dont serve a purpose, they don't need to, they just make a spell more beautiful. How freeing she finds that idea, of not needing to be useful. Her sharing the glyphs with Coco and asking her to just make magic for herself. Olruggio burning himself out creating contraptions, and not finding drive again until he heads up on the roof and weaves creatures of light that do absolutely nothing.
"A gentler kind of magic" indeed. It's art. It's art all the way down.
This is true of the manga, but I love how the anime accentuates the absolute physical trust the apprentices have with Qifrey. Specifically with Agott, the way she is so ready when Qifrey says āhang on tight, I need my hands freeā to cling to him a mile into the sky, and then in the latest episode, how, as soon as she impacts Qifrey while flying to him, she makes no move to save herself, she just curls into him and trusts that he will keep them from falling.
And I think it works as a signal to the audience, to subtly go āhey, I know we donāt trust Qifrey right now, heās being shady, but we can always trust him to protect the physical wellbeing of his kids. Remember that.ā Idk man maybe Iām getting too attached to a teeny detail but aaaaaaghhhh thatās her dad.
#anyways i think it's particularly notable that fiercely independent always-has-something-to-prove Agott is like this with him#and that none of the apprentices really hide how they're feeling around him even when that feeling is negative#Agott and Richeh make it known when they're unhappy with Qifrey#and they (two abused kids) just flat out wouldn't do this if he wasn't a safe person to be unhappy at
