Reiko's Daydream

Yasmir, the bride of Khaine

I finally started reading the Warhammer End Times novels (yes, it is as depressing as the name suggests) and it made me want to re-read the literary jewels that are the tales of Malus Darkblade.

I fell in twisted love with the main protagonist many years ago (like twelve...?) when the first book appeared in the local bookstores. Dan Abnett and Mike Lee managed to create a damnable character for the which you still want to root. The books, glorious and gory, full of plot and plot twists. And amazing dialogues.

So if you are into spiteful, sadistic, dark haired, miserable, cunning, disaster of a man, You will love Malus. By the Dark Mother, go read those books right now!

About Yasmir - she is Malus' half sister. Hauntingly beautiful and dangerous.

Drawing of Malus to come when I practice drawing druchii a bit more. Soon, hopefully.

Another frosty melancholic guy

By the way, I am very interested in one question - what was the life of Titan-puppy eyes-Bi-Han?

Surely, his life turned out somehow differently (very differently)

———————

I just wanted to thank everyone for the kind words regarding the floral Sub-Zero post. 💙

This inspired me to create another similar piece. (this also happens when you manage to sit on your ass and do something more or less decent, and not as usual)

F R O S T and C H A I N S

Inktober days 20, 21 - frost, chains

Kuai Liang and Bi Han, fighting side by side.

Mortal Kombat 1 brain rot still here and not going away any time soon. Hence, more Lin Kuei sketches to come.

I am Awfully behind the schedule of this year's Inktober. Half assing the whole thing, just like I half assed half of this drawing. You guess which half (sorry, Bi Han).

[shkretart]

A few sketches on MK1. I draw during breaks from work, give me strength.

[justreiko]

Ooooh this is so nicely done! I wish I could draw like that.

Big respect for your skill and thank you for sharing such beautiful art *bowing*.

A N G E L vs. D E M O N

Inktober 2023 days 16, 17 - themes angel, demon

Scorpion vs. Sub-Zero

Kuai Liang vs. Bi Han

Brother vs. Brother

Angel vs. Demon - kind of.

Another Mortal Kombat 1 inspired sketch.

Honestly I am not a big fan of mk1 Scorpion, due to his personality (or perceived lack thereof...). I like Bi Han much, much more ;). To me he is one of the fewer morally gray characters, not downright evil, definitely not unstainly good. Just the perfect mix.

And top that with those expressive brown eyes, the deep voice (oh the grunts) and the insatiable hunger to prove himself to be the best Grandmaster the Lin Kuei ever had. What's here not to love?

[justreiko]

"Obey your Grandmaster!"

- Bi Han, (probably) every 10 minutes

D A G G E R

Inktober day 15 - dagger

Sorry Naruto, had to get the MK1 Bi-Han brainrot out somehow... Hence this unfinished sketch of my favorite cryomancer. This version of Sub-Zero is simply a chefs kiss.

The sketch will probably remain unfinished since... ugh... I hate his complicated choice of clothes. And I hate drawing anything symmetrical in general.

I am currently hooked on Mortal Kombat 1 characters, so for next inktober themes I might do some of them. Smoke next maybe...?

Yamato enjoying his S P I C E Y whisky

Inktober 2023 day 12 - spicey

My love for Yamato and whisky burn knows no bounds. Why not combine them together 😏.

W A N D E R

Inktober 2023 day 11 - wander.

Kakashi wanders aimlessly through the street of Konoha, not minding the downpour soaking his clothes and making them cling to his skin.

He doesn't hear the tap-tap of water hitting the concrete, doesn't see the people around hurrying home to escape the rain. He just feels - pain, slowly turning into numbness. His insides full of icy shards.

"I am so sorry Rin... Obito."

The rain on his face tastes like tears.

Late again, have some angsty Kakashi!

Sukea the F O R T U N E teller

Inktober day 10 - fortune.

Kakashi’s undercover mission took an interesting turn. He ought to pose as a fortune teller at a festival in the land of Tea to gather intel and possibly, to act on that intel later on.

What an opportunity to bring Sukea back, though Kakashi, smirking underneath his mask.

Awfully late with this one, had to redraw it multiple times... But the end result is... passable :D.

T O A D sage + B O U N C E

Inktober 2023 days 8 + 9 - toad + bounce

Tsunade being bold, letting (or rather forcing) Jiraya to feel the qualities of her bossom. Jiraya is obviously excited horrified.

Delivering some youngish JiraTsu! Because I wished for oh so much better ending for them.

Had to prioritize adult stuff yesterday, so I tried to squeeze two themes into one drawing. That's not cheating, right?

And just FYI it's hard to draw bouncing boobs so this would have to do for the bounce theme.

Drawn based on a reference from an unidentified anime.

[peachdoxie]

This makes me cry, actually.

[thesharpestlance]

Just to add on. Libraries in many cities have 3d printers you can use that charge you only the price of materials. So if you can't wait for the shipping from the engineers, try your local library.

[justreiko]

Reblogging since this is really important!

Inktober 2023 day 7 - drip.

Kakashi got himself into hospital again.

G O L D E N

Inktober 2023 day 6 - Golden.

Orochimaru eyeing you with cold calculated stare, his hand grasping a syringe with a shimmering golden liquid. Based on his signature evil smirk, he's up to no good.

Karin's M A P of scars

Inktober day 5, theme map.

A map of scars stretching across Karin's body, betraying her precious Uzumaki blood.

They never truly fade and no healing jutsu works on them. So, she always wears long sleeved collared shirts and high boots to cover the bite marks.

Yet they still creep to light when the sleeves roll up or when she tilts her head.

Inktober day 4 featuring Obito sensei dodging some lamely thrown shuriken. He is not amused.

Deva P A T H of Pain

Formerly Yahiko of Amegakure, after his untimely demise made into Deva path of Pain by his fried Nagato. Here caught shedding his akatsuki robe.

Amegakure trio has such a tragic story... I cried a lot during Naruto, but I seldomly cried as hard as when Konan died and finally joined her lover and friend *sobbing silently*.

I sure forgot some piercings somewhere... But kind of happy with this one. Today's inktober theme being path, this was an easy choice :).
