Here’s a little WIP of my picrew progress of the facial features! Can you tell that I like drawing teeth? I’m going to add more black options and more yellow options eventually:)
Please tell me if there are any particular facial expressions you’d like to see or if there are any special mouth customizations you’d be interested in.
*Edit: I think I might be able to add a color picker to the teeth? Like if I make each option come in 4ish colors? White -> yellow -> rotting -> black
??? Maybe???? Idfk lmao! We shall see ig >:D
Also QUESTION: is there a canonical color for Nostraman gums/tongues?
**Edit 2: YEAH NO LMAO NOT HAPPENING
consistently making a black tooth option that looks good with compression is killing me:v
On today’s episode of trying to add more Night Lords whimsy into my life, I present to you:
An ear!
I am learning how to work with latex, which means I am currently at the stage of the hobby where every project alternates between “this is going surprisingly well” and “I have accidentally created evidence >:D”
The tear you can see happened because latex got trapped in one of the deeper airless grooves of the mold and never properly cured. Then I got impatient, removed it anyway, and the ear immediately expressed its opinion on my impatience. Nothing a little blood can’t fix, right?
The mold is silicone, so in retrospect it makes perfect sense that thick pockets of latex would struggle to dry without airflow. I’ve been building it up in layers and letting each layer dry between coats, but apparently the correct amount of patience required is greater than the amount I currently possess. But the second ear is already underway! And once I get the process working reliably, the next step is making sheets of skin.
Normal crafting progression. Don’t worry about it.
The original plan was to “bedazzle” my 40k carrying case with flayed skin decorations, but after some consideration I think I should probably start with something slightly less ambitious (ya girl hasn’t figured out how to reliably bond latex to other materials yet without sewing/stapling).
Current contender: ✨a fashion statement shoulder wrap✨
I already have leather lying around somewhere that I could use for straps, which means I am now only a few poor decisions away from becoming overcommitted to the bit! If all goes according to plan, I will soon possess wearable human skin accessories!
I’m still chipping away at the Picrew, and I’m still working on my other silly little doodles in between. Right now I’m deep in the armor stage, which has slowed things down a bit because I made the questionable decision to tackle the infamous skull pauldron😅
It… does not look good yet. I also refuse to trace it. (Not because I’m against tracing as a learning tool - I think it’s perfectly valid for practice! I just don’t want to end up with the exact same skull size, spacing, and proportions as the official media. I’d rather struggle until I find my own version.)
That said, I’m going to take a short break from the Picrew over the weekend so I don’t accidentally speedrun burnout.
I would, however, love to draw some more Night Lords OCs!
So, if you have a Night Lord OC (or you’d like me to design one for you) I currently have ✨ ONE ✨ request slot open.
This blog is still pretty new and sparsely populated, so realistically I don’t expect to get flooded with requests. But if, by some bizarre twist of fate, I get more than one, I might end up drawing those too if time permits.
My partner and I are celebrating our 3 year anniversary so I made us a night lords themed cake!
She’s a bit of an abomination in terms of flavors lol - she’s red velvet + buttercream the color of Nostraman sunset + raspberry jam + fondant for fleshy bits + candy wafers/white chocolate for blood and wings in the middle^^
Hopefully she’ll bleed when we cut her? I layered the flesh fondant over the ocean of raspberry jam so hopefully it’ll work:)
And the fingers have an outer layer of fondant and a white chocolate core for the crunch! So the finger biting should feel lore accurate^^
So I figured I’d give a more minimalist version of the NL cake a try. This time it’s French vanilla and buttercream flavor^^ well supposed to be… the frosting might taste a little too much like food coloring lmaoooooo
But hey, those colors be looking vibrant af and I’m vibing with it:)
First of all, thank you for all the enthusiasm around the Picrew and my art in general. 🖤
I absolutely welcome art requests! I can’t promise I’ll draw every idea, but I genuinely enjoy hearing what people come up with.
That said, I have a few preferences that I’d like you to keep in mind when requesting art from me:
✅ Warhammer only.
This blog is dedicated entirely to Warhammer, so I’ll only be taking Warhammer-related requests here.
✅ OCs and canon characters are both welcome!
I’ve always had a huge soft spot for OCs. If you send me your little guy and ask me to draw them, your odds are honestly pretty good!
❌ Romantic ship art.
This one isn’t because I think shipping is bad, or because I’m a prude, or because I have some grand moral stance. It’s just… not the kind of art I enjoy making. The easiest way to explain it is that my art style is aroace.
That is not a statement about me or my views on relationships. I’m very much LGBTQ+ friendly (I’m bi IRL, for what it’s worth). This is purely about my relationship with my own art.
Art is primarily therapeutic for me, and for whatever reason, drawing romance - even completely wholesome PG romance - just makes me feel oddly vulnerable. It doesn’t fit the artistic direction I enjoy exploring. So I simply don’t draw romantic pairings of any kind.
That said, if you draw ship art? Hell yeah!
Please do!
I love seeing other people’s romantic art. I’ll happily admire it, reblog it, leave comments, scream in the tags:)
I just don’t enjoy creating it myself.
As for everything else:
✅ Gore? Absolutely.
✅ Body horror? You have met me.
✅ Emotional devastation? Delicious.
✅ Non sexual NSFW? Generally fine.
✅ Night Lords behaving like poorly socialized feral wildlife? My beloved.
Thanks for understanding! Now go forth and send me your weird little ideas! 🖤✨🦇
