Lady Lilac Art

Posts as inconsistent as my art style Mostly Dragon Age

[ladylilac]

So recently I’ve seen this post circulating again and was hit with nostalgia. It was one of my earliest posts and my first time ever drawing Fenris. So in honour of my first attempt I decided to redraw it! I’ll always be proud of it but I think I have improved a lot since then.

Hey there! Just wanted to pop in and ask if you were doing well! :)

Oh my god I’m so late answering this, thanks for checking in though! Truth be told I had a tricky summer and have been busy. However I have some ideas for art pieces that I hope to share soon (:

I wondered why I hadn’t drawn good ol’ quizzie in a while. Then I got to the vallaslin…

[rhubarbtonapalooza]

The eye(s) are gorgeous. Love how you drew the lips too, that blending.

Vallaslins are hard and I hc that since they are tattoos each one is a bit different and crooked, Nyra’s was obviously done by someone with a sugeon’s steady hand tho :)

[ladylilac]

Thank you so much! This is one of the pieces I am proudest of, and they vallaslin especially was really tricky. It means so much to me that took the time to write this lovely comment!

Rollin’ out the first piece of my giveaway for the lovely @ocean-in-my-rebel-soul who won 2nd place! They requested Blackwall with some flowers in his hair/beard. Really fun to draw!

[ocean-in-my-rebel-soul]

I’ve been wanting to write a thing for this and it finally came together for @dadrunkwriting tonight. Hey @ladylilac, have a ficlet!

“Wouldya look at that? That’s right pretty!”

Sera’s voice perked up as they approached the river, pointing toward the rushing water. The riverbed was dotted with tiny flowers, white and red patches spreading like wildfire before the grassy earth gave way to the water’s erosion.

The Inquisitor studied the sky for a moment before calling back to the group. “Let’s make camp and rest, we’ll ford the river tomorrow.”

“Aye-aye, Quizzybits!” Sera slid from her horse and dropped her pack unceremoniously on the ground. “Just in time, too,” she confided as Blackwall dismounted, “my arse feels like it’s gonna fall off with all that riding.”

Blackwall couldn’t help the bark of laughter that jolted from him at her words. Shaking his head, he hoisted his travel bag high on his back, finding a suitable place to pitch his tent close to the river.

“Pretty, right?”

He drove the tent stake into the soft earth before looking up, finding Sera twining small flowers through her fingers. She plucked the petals from them one by one, gathering a small handful. He frowned slightly and had just opened his mouth to speak when she blew the petal confetti directly into his face.

Blackwall coughed and choked on the small debris, batting them away from his hair and beard with his hands. Sera laughed at his momentary misery, dropping to the grass in an undignified heap beside his half-set tent.

“You’re a tit, Fuzzyhead,” he said with a grin, and sank down to the ground to tear grass to throw back at her.

“Yeah, well, you’re too serious, Beardy!” She shoved the remains of her flowers at his face with a laugh and playfully punched his shoulder. “Live a little, you big bear.”

Keep reading

Oh my god this was so fun to read! When I was drawing the piece I imagined Sera putting the flowers in his hair but you just enhanced it so much! Honestly just wow!

OC as a Child

thanks for the tag @a-shakespearean-in-paris!

Who named them/Significance of their name:

Leandra and Malcolm lived in a small house on the outskirts of Highever when they first fled to Ferelden. Malcolm had gone into the city for supplies when Leandra went into labour six weeks early. Having no where else to go, Leandra traveled to their closest neighbour, who was an elderly woman living on her own. The woman was often regarded as cruel and odd by the locals. The woman took one look at Leandra and brought her in and helped her deliver a healthy baby girl. The woman’s name, as Leandra learned was May, so she named her new daughter Maéva in her honour.

Home they grew up in:

The Hawkes continued to live near Highever until Maéva was four, as the two room house would no longer cut it for a soon to be family of five. That was when the family traveled south to Lothering. It was a vine covered cottage that stood next to a small pond,where Maéva and Carver would catch frogs while Bethany helped Malcolm with the crops. The frogs usually found their way indoors much to Leandra’s dismay.

Relationship with parents:

Maéva loved both of her parents dearly, but she especially adored her father. He was somehow always able to put up with her short attention span, which proved useful when Maéva’s magic began to show. Malcolm always told the best stories before the children went to bed. Leandra, however appealed more to Maéva’s feminine side as Maéva loved how her mother would tie colourful ribbons into her hair.

Three words to describe them as a child:

Independent, cunning, and loved.

Childhood friend(s):

For the most part, Maéva’s closest friends were Bethany and Carver and she was extremely protective of them. Though when Bethany’s magic showed, her and Maéva became closer while Maéva and Carver grew apart.

Favourite toy:

A small, worn out stuffed mabari. It wasn’t particularly impressive and maybe calling it a mabari was generous, but Leandra had made it for her and she loved it dearly. It was one of the few possesions Maéva grabbed before fleeing Lothering.

Childhood Trauma:

When Maéva was 12 she was out practicing magic in the woods despite her father’s warning. It was then that a young templar stumbled upon her. In her panic, Maéva let out a large bolt of electicity. The templar fell to the ground and she ran and didn’t look back. Maéva waited and waited for the templars to come get her but...nobody came.

Hobbies:

Practicing magic, exploring, playing dolls with Bethany, and making up stories with her siblings.

Childhood fear(s): 

Sleeping, she didn’t like the whispers.

Quirks:

Singing at the top of her lungs, biting her lip when she’s thinking, can’t sit still.

[ladylilac]

So I just wanted to address a few things. I’ve gotten a couple asks asking if I’m ok and why I haven’t been on in a while. Well... things have been a little tough lately. A friend of mine passed away pretty unexpectedly. I’m doing ok though and I appreciate you guys asking. Thank you to everyone who has still stuck with me through this and I’m going to try to be back soon.

Xoxo Lilac
