I have obtained a Universe '08 Powerglide toy, and used it as an excuse to draw him with this look. Might actually be my favourite design for him.

Featuring obligatory Astoria inclusions.

I'm trying to figure out how I want to draw her face, and in the process these exploratory sketches were born.

Ok, so Worlds Beyond Number's "The Wizard, The Witch, and the Wild One" campaign Book 1 is one of the greatest pieces of fiction ever written and acted out, and it made me cry, gasp, and say "I'm going to kill Brennan Lee Mulligan" more times than I can count.

So, I made a Llengrath doll for @ennaway for the @secret-st-waidwen-exchange this year!

She is made of polymer clay and wire, has a posable neck, and moveable, - although limp, - limbs. All the clothes are hand-sewn, however their design, due to the lack of observable detail in game, is very much just "yep, close enough".

Some more pictures and written comments under the 'read more'.

This project accidentally became three-dimensional, I at first thought of doing an illustration, but then the craft called. Oops.

Actually settling on the clothing design was so hard, because let's be honest, there aren't that many details in the game. But I, nonetheless, managed to make something, including a very very big for the doll wizard robe.

All this clothing is, theoretically, removable: the robe just rests on the shoulders, the overdress can be veryyyy carefully pulled over the head, the dress is only stitched shut in the front, but it is very easy to un-do and re-do if necessary. The boots and tights can come off pretty easily.

I don't know why I did this to myself, but all these pieces are lined, the white dress has quilting lines, it's all (mostly) hemmed. Mind you, I'm in no way a skilled or trained sewist, so if you are one, and looking at this makes you think "wow, this is a nightmare structurally" — yep 😅

And here are a few progress pictures:

More A.B.A sketches with her joint weirdness.

Slowly internalizing that I can draw whatever I want forever, so here's mer!Hound again.

Boom — some of my Watcher stuff in art form.

Her name is Sveelt, she is a death godlike monk, and I love her. One day I may do a personal lore dump for her, but for now this exists for reference purposes.

Game screenshots and some build info are under the read more.

Do NOT fucking judge me for my build, idk if it's good, I'm terrible at planning out a good character, lol /light-hearted

That said, it definitely works better with my party in Deadfire, because I actually have a frontliner with me, unlike in PoE. Sorry, guys, the tankless days are over 😔

My Watcher when she realises her blue bisexual short king finds her Godlike features off-putting:
