Frogs are Damien's favourite animal, so when he sees one, he tends to get excited. Azrael won't say it out loud, but he finds the whole thing to be adorable.
My original characters from my book series, Sanguine Bonds, enjoying a little hike out in the woods. The glowing eyes are because they're both vampires.
Poor Damien was just trying to study a bit of alchemy when his best friend, Azrael, took it upon his mischievous self to help his friend get into the spooky Hunter's Moon (October) spirit.
They're two of my main characters in my book series, Sanguine Bonds. Azrael is a goofy kleptomaniac with a heart of gold and Damien is a mage-in-training who, despite also being a vampire with supernatural powers, is a bit of a jumpy nerd.
I made this a couple of months ago, but never got around to posting it here. This is Azrael Thistlegrove, my vampiric sticky-fingers extraordinaire. I imagine him dressing up like this to go undercover and get some info from some bad guy. He can be very persuasive when he wants to be. And he'd enjoy every second.
I wanted to draw a spooky Azrael for October. It's my favourite season of all. So…. here ya go. My little batty boy being scarier than he is by default. He's one of the main book characters from my Sanguine Bonds series.
This is Damien Hemlock and Azrael Thistlegrove sharing a vulnerable moment together, post torture. My two boys have suffered horrors upon horrors at this point. Despite their vampiric ability to heal physical wounds, some scars don't fade so easily.
When the world seems bright, and warm, and happy - there's always that inexplicable chill in the hearts of those that know trauma. Sometimes it fades, and sometimes it lingers.
This is a nod to those who smile when they don't feel like smiling for the sake of those around them. For those that know sadness and pain that sometimes... just doesn't go away. You're not alone. These are my original book characters for my book series - Sanguine Bonds. Drawn on my XP-Pen tablet with Krita.
A piece I did in celebration of Pride Month. ❤️💛💚💙💜 What better to do that than to draw a tender moment between Azrael and his former boss, Khral?
Khral is an incubus that was banished from hell, and he established himself as a crime-lord in Arandi, one of the southern kingdoms of Yenden. He (much) later recruited Azrael after he was caught snooping around one of his warehouses and taught him how to use his vampiric powers and how to not get caught while thieving. Among other things. 👀
They're both my original characters from my Sanguine Bonds series. This was drawn with Krita on my XP-Pen tablet. 😘
Things two hungarian poets from the 1840s said to each other in their letters that make me crazy:
If my soul touches you and it happens to burn you I'm not to blame... it was you who lit it on fire
I swear to you on cottage cheese and tobacco
If the people rule in poetry, so will they rule in politics and that's the goal of the century! To hell with the aristocracy!
My dear buddy,
My soul, my bastard,
My golden mouthed saintly friend,
My rowdy brother,
My lovable dummy,
If you want to see a dead Pegasus, look no further than me
I am trying to learn to smile nicely ( he did not succeed)
My dear friend, you better side of my soul
I will never forgive you for NOT writing the address on the envelope yourself. A woman's handwriting... and a black seal... dear god, the devil took him! he worked himself to death writing poems, he died! ... and then i opened your letter... Never do this again. Only use black seal vax on your death, and even then, still write the address yourself!
I'm reading (your work) for the sixth time. It's really a horrible thing. I'll need to read it again to understand just how awful it is!
Sincerely, your friend whose balls are itching
It's really good that your sore throat is gone, I can finally strangle you
Leave the dedication! Veselényi is a great man but he's still a Lord, and a poet should never dedicate ANYTHING to a Lord
I'm hugging you a 1000000000000 times!
Nem tudom, most hogyan tanítják ezt (ha egyáltalán...), de nekünk kibaszott röhejesek voltak az irodalomtanáraink, ahogyan próbálták megmagyarázni, hogy "jaj dehogy voltak azok, hogy mondhatsz ilyet, csak hát abban az időben még máshogyan működtek a barátságok", "nem egyáltalán nem úgy értette, csak nagyon jó barátok voltak", "régen nem volt furcsa olyat mondani egy másik férfinak, hogy forrón csókollak".
miről maradtam le, te jó ég
Azigen
Közeli barátok voltak, na.
Why would you leave these in the tags tho? 😄
I just drew this up to make a new banner for my discord profile, initially. Liked it enough to add here too. It features, from left to right - J'Daliah, Hayden, Azrael, Reykala, and Damien.
They're my original characters from my book series, Sanguine Bonds. Drawn on my XP-Pen tablet with Krita.
This piece is a couple years old. It's an artistic depiction of Damien's innocence being torn from him by his cult head-master, Aiken. Damien was a slave that grew up beneath the cruel lash of a cult of Death Worshippers, and he was forced to learn and use Necromancy from childhood, until his death and turning at the hands of a roving group of vampires while out on an errand. You can find more on my stories and associated art on my DA, here!
This is Khraljaam, an Incubus character from Azrael's time before he gets recruited by Valandil to fight the good fight. He's a Crime-Lord that controls a pretty good chunk of his city Zania in Arandi and sees poor Azrael as his favoured pet assassin-thief. This is just an initial concept of the character. You can't read about him just yet, as I haven't finished Azrael's origin story or the third book of my series, yet. But he's something to look forward to. You can check out updates to my story and my characters on my DA, here!
Some outfit concepts for Damien, one of my main OCs for my book series Sanguine Bonds. He's a vampire, and a mage, and he's adorably klutzy. You can find my story and associated art (all made by me) on my DA, here!
This is the character concept for Damien Hemlock, a main character from my book series, Sanguine Bonds. He's a vampire and a mage, and he's an adorable klutz. You can find the chapters of the first book, Emergence, as well as associated art on my DA, here! All made by yours truly, Galowen Sterling!
This is the character sheet for one of my main characters, Damien Hemlock. He's part of my Sanguine Bonds book series, which you can find on my DA, here along with a bunch of art associated with my characters. Art and Story are all by me, Galowen.
The book cover I made for the first book of my book series, Sanguine Bonds: Emergence! This took me way too long to do, I don't usually do much shading or anything anymore because I rarely have the patience, but I felt this was important enough to bother with. It Features my main Big Bad, Alastair staring down Valandil, who's the leader of the good guys, and poor Damien and Azrael are caught in the middle of their conflict that has been happening on and off for centuries, before they were even born. You can read my story and see the associated art on my DA, here!
This scene takes place in the thirteenth chapter of my first book, Origins. It's just after Grayson and Alaric tortured Azrael and before they dumped his body down the garbage chute. Believe it or not, this isn't showing his most grievous wounds. He is alive though, if barely. Grayson was too dumb to check for vitals before he tossed his body. I was in another one of my moods and needed an outlet. This was also practice for shadows and perspective.
This is a "behind the scenes" scene of my first book, Sanguine Bonds - Origins. It's Grayson complaining to Alaric (for good reason, really) about him being the only one that subdued their targets even though there were three other vampires on the mission, and getting riddled with holes and burns, while the others did diddly.
These are my original characters, Grayson Elsher, Alaric Mikalis, Damien Hemlock, and Azrael Thistlegrove. They're all vampires of various races. Azrael looks darker because his skin tone was very tan in life, but he's still very much (un)dead.
....It kinda looks like Grayson's about to bite a chunk out of Az's rear. lol
This is an updated version of an old piece I did back in 2022. I was happy with the background, so I just redrew Azrael and Grayson and the little stalker in the background.
This is depicting a scene in the 11th chapter of my first book, Sanguine Bonds - Origins. Grayson got a foot to the nose, so he's paying Azrael back with interest.
