The 12 Empires
[Zoom for a better view of details]
FINALLY! At first, this was supposed to be experimentation of style that was inspired by when I saw an art of this and this (if anyone knows the original author of these, please tell me. I can’t find the original for the life of me, TinEye can’t properly let me ;-;). It was supposed to include only the inner circle and not that much shading. I was pretty much done since then.
Until the new lore dropped and decided to torture myself with more details. It’s not that much impressive than I wanted to be (since I wanted to go for a stained glass art style) but I tried... :’)
Notes:
I couldn’t find the name of Pearl’s empire after watching through all of her episodes. I contemplated putting Ducky Empire, but I decided to make it a broken glass on her part. If anyone knows what is the name, please tell me!
Many of their looks might be different from their canon skins. That is because I’d given some of them proper royal attires as if they’re depicted in a mural. I didn’t give them crowns because I initially wanted to save my sanity drawing them.
Many of their positions, I deliberately and intentionally put beside or across each other but not everything. For example, Lizzie & Joel, Scott & Jimmy, and the Wither Rose alliance (Gem, Pearl, Fwhip, Sausage).
