12/29: Memento Mori, but the Inverse

12/20: Memento Mori, but in the Past Tense

[dtiys-december]

12/31: Last one! A panel from this comic I made 8 years ago based on a quote from the show Preacher. A comic redrawn from a comic based on both a TV show and on a TV show based on a comic...

[dtiys-december]

12/30: I wanted to take another crack at this emulation of Dante and Virgil in Hell I originally drew for my comic (comic page + the painting this panel is based on both under the cut)

[dtiys-december]

12/29: For the last few days of the challenge, I'm re-drawing my own comic art to see how my style has changed :)

First up is a page from my old comic series Memento Moried, an AU where Magnus & Melmord are resurrected to work for Charles as klokateers. The context of this scene is: since his death, Magnus has been unable to remember most of his time with the revengencers, but after seeing Melmord's scars, he suddenly has a brief flashback to when he kept Toki captive.

12/28: Dethwedding if Seth had been the son of an oligarch, probably

[dtiys-december]

12/27: Fencing is a bit like dancing, in a way..

+ bonus doodle

[dtiys-december]

12/26: Throwing Magnus & Amber into my favourite part of Ex Machina, because I do love an unhinged dance scene. Also apparently if I was going to cast a live-action Magnus, it would be Oscar Isaac lol.

[dtiys-december]

12/25: Merry Magcharls :) Two drawings today because Withnail & I was my favourite movie for a long time.

[dtiys-december]

12/24: Happy Christmas Eve! Your gift this year is Magnus & Seth as these stylish guys from Fargo. If you are not a fan of MagSeth, be comforted by the fact that Seth at least ends up in a woodchipper I guess 😭

[dtiys-december]

12/23: I haven't seen Kill Bill in like 20 years.. I just wanted to draw Magnus in this outfit to be honest.

[dtiys-december]

12/22: On to crossovers week, where I redraw screenshots but swap in my fave MTL characters because it amuses me & I can 🙃

I loved the new Frankenstein... and I think it’s fair to say after getting kicked out of the band, Magnus might regard Dethklok as an experiment that failed to meet his creative expectations, took on a life of its own, and rejected his control. Also, I would like to see Nathan throw Magnus across a room like an empty can of pringles.

12/21: Suggested by @mommagranate

Have you seen Lake Mungo? Or into any found footage horror with a cool still? Feel like that would be a challenge :)

I could tell Lake Mungo would be too scary for me 😅 so I ended up finding a frame from a found footage movie that was popular around the time I joined tumblr, Cloverfield. I wanted to try another environment drawing, and it was an interesting challenge trying to emulate the "shaky-cam footage" look. Thank you for the request!

[dtiys-december]

12/20: Suggested by @nightklok

Another request! Any frame from knives out? (Can be any of the sequels!)

So many good frames from that series, so it was hard to choose haha. Thank you for the request!

[dtiys-december]

12/19: Suggested by @lampmeeting

Also I wanted to give the option of something from one of my other favorite movies, Lawrence of Arabia 💛

I love the palette for this one. Also, I have been meaning to watch this for a while, so it's going up to the top of my watch list. Thank you for the request!

[dtiys-december]

12/18: Suggested by @gluku-pikron

Draw something from Park Chan Wook's Sympathy for Lady Vengeance :3

I keep struggling to draw faces/likenesses & then choosing to draw more of them anyway 😭But I really wanted to try capture what I could of this complex expression. Thank you for the request!

[dtiys-december]

12/17: Suggested by @nightklok

Hii :D for requests I think any frame from the Superman 2025 film? 🙏

I haven't seen this film, but I liked the cool green backdrop in this shot + the characters' dynamic (sorry the rest of the background is just kinda scribbled in there, I am fading fast tonight oh man 😭)

[dtiys-december]

12/17: Suggested by @lampmeeting

Amadeus perhaps? 👀 always loved this moment when Salieri first sees Mozart conducting.

I feel like I didn't quite manage to capture the energy/likeness here, but I agree, this moment is SO good. Thank you for the request! :)
