Void Out

When @peevedpigeon wrote a fic about Higgs and the Luxor, introducing a chiral sphinx, I knew I had to paint it. A wonderfully rewarding collab, and a chance to explore making a brand new BT <3

i genuinely don't think there's much, if anything, hotter than someone clearly having a blast doing something they're really good at. doesn't really matter what it is. the combo of competence and joy is absolutely lethal to me

first photo on my dating profile is a head and shoulders shot of me smiling at the beach and the next eight are just an unending column of smooth iridescent scales

“Say my shuttle exploded. I died, and it was such a shame. Give me a break, Crux, I’m begging you here—I’ll trade you a skin mag. Frontline Titties of the Fifth.” This rendered the marshal momentarily too aghast to respond. “Okay, okay. I take it back. Frontline Titties isn’t a real publication.”

I spent the better part of a day painting this and looking at a lot of smutty pulp covers for palette and typography purposes (and for science.)

One of my favorite things about tumblr is the longevity a post can have. I made this over three years ago and sometimes the TLT crowd lifts it back up. Sometimes I’m told she’s holding a rapier wrong (yep), sometimes there’s concerns there’s more ass than boobs in something with titties in the title. Some don’t like its pulp instead of porn. Carry on, I love you all, and know Gideon is still gonna read it anyway ✨

the number 1 rule of fanfic is have fun and be yourself. the number 2 rule is the average healthy adult male can lose roughly 2 liters of blood before dying.

Herald, executor, pawn.

Death for life. Theirs for mine. A fair exchange.

Vanitas

A vanitas is a specific type of memento mori painting. 

Memento mori says you will die. Vanitas says and everything you did before that meant nothing.

Lore/BTS: I set up a physical maquette with similar-enough objects to help with perspective/material/light. Red liquid watercolor still stains my nails. I never expected I’d research grease stains on cardboard. The text in the foreground pages is from CERN. I repainted Tut like, four times, and said good enough lol. My designer heart was 😑 looking in my library for a script font (pizza box lid) but I wanted to try for accuracy.

i do genuinely believe that the best thing that can happen to a person Creatively is to just get obsessed with some random-ass guy

[soulren]

“Ghosts are real” I can see how you could believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real” it’s very fair and rational that you believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real anymore” I’m about to hear a poem or very sad story

“Ghosts aren’t real yet” the fuck are you going to do

[eldritchblep]

I have an unknown small window of time amid a large project I’m working on, and my next piece revealed itself during my run this morning.

Patron saints of sad things and emotional gut punches, don’t fail me now.
