They/them You could say I’m pretty es-static about art

Greetings! Welcome to the broadcast

I’m basically going to use this blog to post art of whatever interests me at the time, so don’t expect consistency.

DNI-

-phobes, terfs, maps, racists, etc.

[cryptidcuriosities]

I need motivation

Does anyone wanna see more tma au stuff

Out of Corbeau, Adder, & Emmet... who's bolting out the window during a scary moment in a horror movie or horror video game?

in my heart I feel as though it’s adder bc he can handle fist fights and brawls but the supernatural? that’s something you can’t punch sksks though he would also want to thug it out as to not abandon corbeau so I can see him closing his eyes and staying as still as possible <- scientific way to have no harm come to you

emmet would stare unblinkingly at the screen in pure fear so he can see what ever comes at him while corbeau would be tense the whole time and cut circulation in adder’s hand from gripping it too hard

[cryptidcuriosities]

Idk man felt like making them vampire bat monsters

[nartothelar]

he’s so pookie for that

[nartothelar]

Are there any moments between Emmet and Adder/Philippe in ToxicTrackShippimg where they're like:

Emmet: "Hey Adder, could I borrow your face for a moment? I bought some new lip balm/lipstick and I wanna see how it looks on you first before Corbeau

what’s a little making out between friends (smooches under the cut)

- at this point emmet and corbeau are a thing (this thing has not been specified as to what it is by either one them)

- emmet and adder has hooked up once or twice (corbeau was in the room supervising); emmet knows of adder’s crush on corbeau

- adder has been calling emmet by his name but switches to calling him mr. gray around corbeau

Saw @nartothelar cleaned up one of the sketches from our holiday trade and decided, screw it, I haven't draw in ages but I want to draw these sillies.

So here it is.

Anyway, idk how to do this, but here it is!

I love that everything about Corbeaus outfit is designed to make him look taller than he is (From a both in-Universe and Character-Design perspective)

1: He wears high waisted pants that shorten his Torso and make his legs look longer -> his pants also end just above the ankle to amplify that effect

2: His suit is the lenght of his knees (including the poison-drop thingies) and he doesn't Button it, making his entire front and back silhouette look elongated

3: His Accessoires also aid to that effect, wearing a long tie (instead of for example bow tie) as well as his droplet Glasses chains

(4. I dont necessarily count it but he does have a good amount of heel and his hair is sticking up just a bit)

Considering that Corbeaus suit is (most likely) custom made by him, everything about the outfit is fully intentional

From a Character design perspective (not a professional, just an educated guess!!): We’re supposed to perceive him the way he wants to be perceived, but still notice that there’s more to him than that. We’re supposed to know that he’s that authoritative, smart, cynical and ruthless figure, just someone who should not be messed with.

However, Given that he is that short, and has kind of a Babyface (imo) and round-ish design features (accessories and hair for example) we just know that’s not everything there is to him. But we only truly find that out after getting to know him in-game

TLDR:

He's fully aware of how short he is and is actively trying to make himself look taller. It serves both in-Universe and Character design purpose, since we get a good impression of what kind of a person he is before we even meet him, and then get to fully appreciate him once we meet him in-game

In my humble opinion: Very adorable- he's trying so hard to look intimidating- i love him-

Here we go, spiral Emmet in some of the forms he takes within and sometimes outside of his domain

Lore for his character below

vvvvvvvvv

I may get into the story later but for now i’ll focus on Emmet here-

-no, he’s not actually THE Distortion despite appearances but rather an entity that shares a few similarities- mainly the hands and some of the way they catch victims, though instead of doors it’s just people lost in the subway station.

Also importantly…he is the station itself, having become an Avatar by literally fusing with the station after a nasty railway accident. You can see this a bit hinted in his more abstract form with the pattern on his vest literally becoming like the tiled walls of the station

-as an avatar he’s not actually as evil as he could be, normally taking a “catch and release” approach to getting fear unless someone has really broken the rules

A collection of doodles and drawings that i didn’t want to make up one post under the cut

[cryptidcuriosities]

Welp took me awhile but finally drew corbeau and philippe for the TMA Au, Corruption and Buried respectively

Lil rant below

Still working out the details but essentially they run the syndicate….mostly the same, with the main exception being some of their clients tend to disappear under mysterious circumstances.

Despite being avatars though they are still trying to do good for luminose- or I guess just paris in this case. I may go into how both became avatars but for now Ill explain what they can do

Corbeau- corruption

•a little strange compared to most other avatars of the rot- instead of being a hive or carrier of disease he specializes in poisons. This can be injected through syringes or just from physical contact- though his many legged assistants also help with the process

Philippe- Buried

•we don’t actually get a good example of buried avatars in the podcast- not one i remember anyway so i imagine his ability is literally dragging people underground. He can travel underground and bend architecture to some degree as well- not to level Emmet can but it’s come in handy more than once

[cryptidcuriosities]

So getting into tma again
