Hold on, ya’ll, I’m channeling my inner @elsa-fogen to make something for their blinded!au.
It’s captured my heart, so take this phone sketch (alas my tablet pen is woefully in a different city) as proof of my madness. I hope I’ve done your universe justice, because sight referencing an art-style as a perfectionist is secretly my fandom love language.
What do you call fan content of fan content? Double fan art? Fandom squared?
Will Alastor actually hold a grudge against Carmilla? Prolly not. He’s got bigger fish to fry, like adjusting to living in Hell while blind. Does he like making her uncomfortable during meetings nonetheless? Absolutely. Will Carmilla pretend not to care but also quietly make accommodations for him during said gatherings? Also yes.
For my fellow nerds, see under the cut for the references (and more links)!
The Alastor poses (his hair to be specific because hooo boy is that bob difficult to draw from memory) was referenced from this concept art, and the majority of the Carmilla references used were from an interlude of the Breakfast AU. Particularly this frame:
Some great resources I love using are these (1) two videos (2) that explain my preferred practice techniques. And this one (3) which gives a more visual representation of it (sight referencing).
A more casual alternative to learn from (because one can only sit watching lectures for so long) is this video (4), which looks into the stages of drawing from learning to draw reference.
I’m seriously lacking in the digital art resources department, however. So if anyone has anything fun to share, to share feel free to drop me the link! The process of studying art in general is just so intriguing to me as someone with an eidetic memory.
Plus, for my fellow law enthusiasts, see if you can spot all the Spanish Law references I threw in to this sentence. Double points if you can tell me the purpose of the real ones, and which are fabricated.
And it wouldn’t be my art if I didn’t throw in a joke about my own over-complication
“Business Jargon” is there for all the Hazbin Hotel writers that are forced to include adult sounding dialogue for the beginning or the end of an overlord meeting. I too pull fake quarterly stats and buzz words out of thin air.
I legit love how Charlie's drawing wasn't too far off from what happened later on, except it obviously missing Prick, Hatchet, Valentino, and Velvette from it as well as they weren't all holding hands, but hey, unity still transpired. ;) ^_^<3<3<3
Also:
Valentino and Velvette could be making these faces because they're concentrating on funneling their powers, but considering everyone else is smiling, I think they're just not happy about having to help save everyone. ;) XD
