'i never knew that i could be in love like this'

some quick bible fanart (Bible moralisée) that turned into an unexpected study of rendering cloth (and by study i mean following my heart and trying my best)

alt version closeups beneath the cut where henry looks more like how i styled him in my playthrough

i love henry w/ brown eyes!!! also it looks like i just straight up didn't render his hair in that 1 pose? lol

i started this so long ago but i'm glad i took my time with it. next up i wanna work on getting their likenesses more accurate and maybe play around with an alternate painting technique to speed things along a lil bit

oh also the original drawing was so much fun, gg to whoever drew that and gave the 1 dude that killer outfit. this was a fun adaptation challenge, even if i originally intended to maintain the original style and almost immediately diverged

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be sir jaromir, sitting in jail, watching this 40 year old, who claims he's there to save u, have the most incredible beef w two 19 year olds one cell over, who also showed up a couple days ago and said they would help u

hansry nation are you there

[kuttenberg-gauntlets]

reverse kcd2 where u play as Hans. the two wedding routes are huntsman Vostatek (easier, familiar) or running 1000000 errands for the Thrushes so they become convinced they have a noble relative (wacky, funny). one side quest involves dealing with mercenaries robbing people by the crossroads and one of the mercenaries turns out to be Henry. he tells you to fuck off. he gets sentenced to death instead of Hans but he's gonna get beheaded bc he was pretending to be a robber baron.

Second & final part of the map marker makers saga

Huge gay foreshadowing that every item Hans uses to seduce women (Klara’s bouquet, Karolina’s love letter and book of poems), he eventually gives to Henry. Can’t understand people who say they never saw the romance coming

Also fun fact I just discovered : when you’re about to see Hanush, if your clothes are good enough, Hans tells Henry he looks "as smart as any courtier" and therefore doesn’t need his old clothes. But he clarifies that Henry can still come and take his clothes later anyway. That nobleman was crushing hard two weeks of long distance relationship in

Also also, let’s appreciate Hans’ poetry skills when seducing a woman vs seducing Henry :

I will bring this up again, as further evidence: if you follow Hans around when he is trying to flirt with bathmaids (especially at the Den), he sounded almost like an incel, desperate and only parroting words he learnt from someone else, even though he sounded sweet, it just felt... off. I suppose because indeed, he had no feelings for them 😂

Then, compare everything to how he talks to Henry. His words rarely falter, the flow unbreakable, all is said with ease; it is confidence based off comfort. He says praises with his full chest, and he effortlessly compares Henry to legendary figures (who were known to have male lovers). 👁️ 👁️

Luke Dale's performance made it even more obvious (let me tell you once again that he truly delivered, he did spectacular job). I cannot stop yapping about this.

There is one similar line that Capon said to a bathmaid (that I remember) and to Henry: "Don't make me beg". When he said to Henry, it was lighthearted, actually already begging, but sweetly with his heart was in it. When he said it to the bathmaid, it, without failure, made me recall the times strange men try to flirt with me and I had to gently tell them off because I was alone and tiny. 😂

Truly, Luke Dale did his job so well that I was convinced he was a creep and then made me coo at him for being a total sweetheart to Henry. 😂

Hans' sweetness toward Henry got progressively more obvious starting from post-Troutsky Heist, I mean, For Whom the Bell Tolls, which was noted by Tom McKay himself. I think we can even dissect Hans' feelings for Henry just from the way he called Henry's name, because it had sent me into essay mode numerous times. (I am so mentally unwell, m'lord 😂)

more studies

[kcdconfessions]

I’m more tired of people complaining about the “princessification” of Hans than I am of people who actually do it. It has been talked about and dissected to death. I feel like people who are meaningfully involved in the fandom take care with this issue and don’t do it. The people who usually do it just drop by the Hansry tag for a few weeks and then get bored and leave. So now we just live in an echo chamber where the people who need to hear about it aren’t even here. Sick of hearing the lectures that don’t even apply to most of the people here.
