The Watchers wear grave gold in acknowledgment of our own deaths.
It's a grave-dowry. Mementos to catch the eye or stir the heart.
It's Nevarran custom to wear precious objects we'd like to take to our graves.
This bracelet was presented to me on becoming a full Watcher. The ring with the large stone was my father's. His last gift.
Bonus:
Taash: How 'bout the little skull pin?
Emmrich: Oh, I just enjoy the look of it.

I’m finally able to upload the reason I haven’t been posting art as much recently. This took up a good chunk of my free time. A lot longer than I figured it would. But even though it broke many a needle and took my blood a few times I’m pretty happy with how he turned out. He was a Christmas present I made and was finally able to get him to his person. This is of course yesman from fallout a very good character.

two movies that play with history in costuming in ways that make Brain Go Brrrr for me:
Jingle Jangle, A Christmas Journey (2020). the actual plot was very much a "this is fine but I'm not the intended audience and I didn't watch it as a child, so it will never have the nostalgia factor and it doesn't particularly compel me as an adult. and that's okay!" situation
but the COSTUMES. oh my god. Cheyney McKnight calls this "Afro-Victorian," and they did it in such an amazing way. one part that struck me is the way the clothes change over time- they didn't have to start it with 1860s-inspired fashions and then make the 30 Years Later timeskip clearly 1890s. it's a fantasy land; people would have forgiven them. but they DID and it's SO COOL
beginning of the movie. the hoops! the little perched hats! this is clearly like 1865, but it works in a lot of both fantastical twists and colors and patterns inspired by various African cloth-dyeing traditions
main character's adult daughter, after the timeskip. puffed sleeves! menswear-inspired tailoring! this is clearly Fantasy 1890s!
main character's granddaughter and her friends post-timeskip. honestly, I say African-inspired textile colors and prints, but some of these would definitely not be out of place in classic European Victorian fashion. mostly the plaid on the white girl here. appropriate skirt lengths for little girls! Cute BootsTM! hats on 99% of the female characters in this shot!
the other is The Favourite (2018)
early 18th century is severely underrepresented in film. the 1690s-1710s were gorgeous and I will die on this hill. plus the way they play around with laser-cut trim and exaggerated hair and makeup is heightening the period look, not watering it down to suit modern sensibilities
Queen Anne and her lover are doing something here; I forget what. I liked the movie, but it wasn't a- pardon the pun -favorite
would she have been wearing full-on masc clothing to shoot? probably not. is it reasonably accurate masc clothing for the era, but Stylized? yes! Also This Is Hot so I'm not complaining. maybe I'd be more into butches if they wore historical menswear...? anyway I digress
holy Tim Burton wet dream I love it so much
do I think Black Panther deserved to win the Oscar that year because the designer had to create a whole visually cohesive clothing culture from scratch? yes. do I still love the costumes in this movie? YES.
so like. it's not that I require 100% accuracy! I just like movies to be having a conversation with history rather than shouting over it, if that makes sense. (also avoiding my specific pet peeves- just be normal about corsets and put women's hair up/add hats where there should be hats. please?)
I will forever die on the hill that Ortho's Fairy Gala card is THE BEST SSR IN THE ENTIRE GAME.
Like I love Ortho but she's not even close to my favorite character (live laugh love Diasomnia) but this. This is perfection.
Imma be real I would kill a man to have a doll or something like this.
Sigh... some day...
