Hello! I'm FeatherSnek! I draw a lot of Tales of the Rays fanart while my own stories and characters are on hiatus. On my Discord, Kocis Squad, I work on private Tales of the Rays Translations. Currently working with a team to make public TLs as well! I also stream on the side! || @ FeatherSnek on Twitch | Twitter | etc || 日本語OK! (まだ日本語は勉強中です)
Can be found right over here: https://feather-wips.tumblr.com/
Artwork I'm working on when I'm working on it and at any point I feel like sharing it. The quality will vary, but you can find things I'm working on but haven't completed/posted on my main yet, such as these:
I'm making this side blog so I can keep my main one running normally while having a cozy place to share updates on whatever art I'm working on freely. Especially since I might binge some rough sketches every now and again that I won't have time to finish for a while.
My main blog will still get some of the art over here, just in a more organized manner (multiple images in one post in more spread out updates) / some of it might not get posted here until it's fully completed, so this blog will get some of both. Meanwhile the side blog will likely never have completed pieces, as I'll put those on this one.
School is over, so I'm fully opening commissions again! I've got a new commission type, activated Vgen's request function, new sales markers up on Vgen from 20% - 30% off, and a 20% discount code (CANS4LUNA) for my Ko-fi!
Being an artist that likes getting general prompts but proceeds to turn around and not have any prompts for other artists other than "I just want to see them, I love them" makes me a problem child doesn't it. Lmao. I'll do my best and also leave some reference material here!
Tales of the Rays: Recollection:
Don't know what Reco is at all or sort of do and want to get to know my requested characters better? You can take a look at my character introduction posts to get a general feel for them.
I did privately EN summarize the entire story chapter by chapter in detail on my Discord, Kocis Squad! But, uh, linking it would probably out my assignee to me via joining huh? ...W-well here's the opening animation and a playlist of the raw chapters if you want to take a look. The main story chapters in particular are fully voiced at least.
Character thoughts:
Elnath:
She's cute! She's badass! She's perfe-- *ahem* Um. Let's see. Naturally she's adorable, but she also just. Carries a claymore over her shoulder with zero effort and leads a military squadron. Please note that Elnath is also an adult even though she doesn't look like it. Like the rest of my requested Reco characters, you can find a write up of her in my linked character introductions tag above.
Making a read more cut for the rest for the safety of everyone's dash.
Haze:
Above is her fall outfit, and it's gorgeous, but I welcome any design! Haze really grew on me, and before I knew it I was part of the Haze fanclub. She is sincere and dotes on everyone as if they were her own child.
Kodama:
Petty crime greml-- Kodama is a fascinating character, and you can really just sit and chew on him analyze his character. He's exceedingly clever and utilizes street smarts, including for petty get backs at anyone who bullies him, but he's very kind hearted and will throw himself under the bus to help others. You really never know what this boy is up to at any given time.
Lugh:
Feral cat. Does bite. Stubborn, loyal. Pretty design. Maybe a little unhinged. Under certain plot circumstances she did soften, and was found crying. She's been alone for a very long time... Her pupils are indeed white, but it's really hard to see with this internal image resolution. I do own the art book, so if anyone wants her actual settei sheet with the 3D turn around and eye detail, I can provide it to a secret santa mod to send to you perhaps?
Tales of the Rays:
...Let's just cut to the chase on this one. Here's the writeup I did on Kocis. I love him with all my heart.
Tales of Luminaria:
Honestly as my 3rd request, this is most relevant if you were actually specifically matched to me because of this so! If that's the case I'll assume you know Lumi pretty well! Because we have to love and remember Lumi or no one else will--
I'm calm.
Anyway, even if you weren't matched to me because of this you're of course welcome to enjoy drawing these characters! Mostly I actually just don't know what to say haha So in that case, lemme grab some references.
Here's a story playlist in English dub. There is also a JP dub on youtube, but it's organized a little backwards. The neat thing about Lumi is each episode focuses on a character, so if you want to get to know my request characters, you can get a good idea by focusing on their specific episodes! Which are clearly labelled. They do show up in other character's episodes naturally, but that's the quickest way to check them out.
The exceptions to this are Grace Menil and Frederick Logerot, who are actually supporting/background characters haha I just love them. Grace only shows up in this specific episode starting at this timestamp if you'd like reference of her. She is very cool and I'm sad we didn't see more of her. Meanwhile Frederick is Maxime's butler and he's just a bro. You'll find him in various episodes with Maxime, but here's one timestamp of him.
Ho ho ho... What's this? Spooky season is over? Then it's time to take out the Christmas decorations! The Tales of Secret Santa fanwork exchange is coming to town 🎅

Thanks to everyone's help with commissions and the half off sets, I'm under review for verification! Thank you so much!
Just a heads up that my price sheet is going to be adjusted after my experience from taking these first ever commissions, so I've taken the original down while I work on a revised sheet. Sorry for the changes, but this is a very new process for me 🙏
Colored sketch commissions for V, requested as gifts for their friends! @soft-serve-soymilk and @windor-truffle
Dism Dandelion (OC) with a dandelion crown and a sunflower. Dandelions represent hope, resilience, and emotional healing. They're related to sunflowers! 🌻
Min's Eleanor sketch commission! Supporting Peers IN Achieving Cohesive Harmony! Thank you so much for commissioning me!
There's a cross-language joke going on here lol
In Berseria's JP version, there's a skit about Eleanor disliking spinach. The word for spinach has the same pronunciation as a common business acronym/method for communicating in work environments* which she starts lecturing the others on at the end.
In the English version, they stayed true to the spinach reference and made an acronym out of it. (SPINACH)
The joke here is that Tales of the Rays Theatre has Lowell P constantly bring up the same JP acronym for work communication. So I drew Eleanor P talking about SPINACH 😌
