🦁💏😤POV Disney Prince Lion El'Johnson judges your ship.
43 people looked at Lion boy here and clicked immediatly what this pose was a reference to, so I was forced to color him in a 2D animation style, WHAT IS SOMEHOW HARDER THAN MY USUAL STYLE, but I think it looks great, so thank you!
Drawing short hair lion feels so weeeeeird—
We have Guilliman and Yvraine (based on idiotoftheeast 's masterpiece, but slightly diferent Because I cannot draw Yvraine as cute as he does), Celestine and her Grey Fox mommy, The Geriatric Skeleons, Ephrael and Kyganil, and Magnus The Red doing Nothing Wrong.
Also Now I remember WHY I don't draw these Men in armour.
As Always, these are a bunch of digital drawings done on Ibispaint, 4000x3000 The big One I had to cut, and The usual 2625x3500 the smaller Ones, and JoyToys are Always The best references. IF ONLY VULKAN WOULD GET ONE
it’s Wednesday already where I live so WIP Wednesday!!
Trying to solidify the concepts for characters tarot (see older post), these three are kinda done and waiting to be colored
You can see some conceptual insights under the cut if you’re interested :3
ok so I like to yap from time to time! And this time I want to share small bits of my thoughts on the process.
Cassia right there is quite symmetrical, like religious figures on paintings. I want her to look like one :p also I seek to implement some stylistic elements of bysantinian icons, such as the way of drawing eyes and maybe fabrics? also (x2) I LOVE Botticelli and try to learn from his painting techniques! Also (x3) I want to paint Cassia in most radiant colours because of her vision theme.
On to Heinrix and more orthodox imagery. I highly recommend you (anyone who reads it) watch “Ivan the Terrible” by Sergei Eisenstein, its absolute cinema. What I want to say is, the characters here are rarely alone. The interiors of the palace are filled with faces of saints, and it resonates with WH40K visuals for me: it is rare not to see the Emperor’s image somewhere around. So for Heinrix’s card I chose to add such ever-present image, so he would feel additional guilt for his actions, duh
And Kibellah! As a religious follower, she is also symmetrical, mind you, and I wanted to utilise next concepts: her being chained by the beliefs and her being a part of the ship. So the purity seals around her (believe me they will stand out more….) shall be like a spiderweb, and the background… it is like a mix of muscle tissue and capillaries that surround Kibby and maybe pull her back? Either way she must feel like a logical continuation of it. Also want to give her a bit of tradgoth makeup :p
To anyone who read it - thank you for your attention. Have a good day, hooman
Big smooch to those who tagged me, @annahenriart, @jaal-ama-daravv & @amadicah
Most of the crap I'm tinkering on is rather hush-hush, but I can at least share this from what I've managed to conjure thus far in 2026.
