I am going to start working on a Night Watch animatic (time permiting) so here are some sketches for "Keel", young Sam Vimes and young Havelock Vetinari, I think I am going to go with the short hair but frankly he is going to be wearing a hood so it does not matter too much

Lady Sybil Ramkin sat off to one side, wearing a few acres of black velvet. The Ramkin family jewels glittered in her fingers, neck and in the black curls of today's wig. The total effect was striking, like a globe of the heavens.

How do they rise up.

Glorious 25th of May animatic which is slightly less elaborate then I would have preferred but I really like how it has turned out regardless.

Edit: Apparently it is restricted in some territories so I am adding the actual file under the cut as a back up

The Glorious 25th May

Truth! Justice! Freedom! Reasonably Priced Love! And a Hard Boiled Egg!

I might have been slightly overconfident with this piece

Does the Emperor fit Lord Havelock Vetinari?

Yes, this is the perfect card for him!

This fits him well enough.

No, another card would work better.

I don't know this character (Results)

Voting ended onJun 1

The Emperor represents fatherhood, patriarchy, authority, courage, structure, stability, leadership, logic, mature masculinity, maturity, protecting others, and steadiness. Reversed, it indicates stubbornness, arrogance, immaturity, lack of confidence, insecurity, poor fatherhood, lack of power, loss of control, poor leadership, or abuse of power.

These are not new, but I thought I might post them again for the 25th of May.

Havelock Vetinari, and Roberta Meserole with her cat.

[weepylucifer]

this years 25th of may thought is about vetinari once again

vetinari who, after spending the entire book concealing himself in the scenery by forgoing the traditional but impractical black and camouflaging himself in greys and greens, who definitely used that unorthodox stealth to get INTO the palace, enters that ballroom in the very black assassin garb he kept on saying he wouldn't want to be caught dead in, literally. who enters that room with intent to kill a tyrant in the bright light, where everyone can see it. who, when asked who sent him, says "i come from the city".

after he did the deed, lady meserole and her allies covered it up, and the common people never get to know how winder died. getting him into that room required the whole of ankh-morpork's upper class to strategically look away at the right moment. in particular it is ankh-morpork's rising bourgeoisie, not the old nobility, who does all the backroom dealing to make the assassination possible. enterprising minds, merchants and guild leaders, proto-capitalists even, got rid of an inconvenient ruler to enthrone (what they thought was) their pet candidate, someone who would help businesspeople do business.

vetinari knows this, and that knowledge is what gets him into power later down the road. but he enters the room in a way that ensures he's seen, and he comes from the city, and he wants justice done in the light, the assassin in that moment not a rich idiot who does other rich idiots' killing, but an executor in the name of the people of society. and later, he's at the last barricade, in a street fight, killing with his hands to protect a handful of poor people who don't know him and the ghost of the people's republic, lilac blossom clutched in his mouth. how many perfectly unremarkable lives of the lilac baricadeers did he save in that fight? it says so much about vetinari's ideals and how they come through despite his cynicism about his lived reality

A relatively messy study/fanart for project hail mary, the last month has really awakened my inner space loving child again

Also fun fact, while drawing Man of war by Radiohead started randomly playing which i think is very veru fitting for this
