Practicing backgrounds... this is a pretty easy one, it just looks a little boring I guess? What do we think?

And just to be fully transparant with my last post. As I have said before I really hate posing so if I can find free to use bases? I take advantage of them. I don't HAVE too, I don't do all my pieces that way.... it just reduces the amount of time I spend on my concepts. Im looking to move away from that though.

Also if anyone knows of tips to help protect/poison videos/timelapses against AI that would be great. :)

So I am drawing Aela and I know already that she has some illness that is at the very least, unique to her universe causing her hair to grey prematurely. (This is based off my finding btw, various White Eyelashes in my early/middish 20s)

But this is where I wonder. Do I give her POTS or hEDS or Orthostatic Hypotention or Hypermobile Sectrum Disorder. Or Fibro. Or ME. Or any other of the variety of things Ive wondered if I have before/doctors have told me I have maybe probably/others have told me I definitely dont.

She's one that I made with the intention of projection after all. Her whole story is a metaphor for my own anxiety issues.

Or maybe I just give her this vague illness that makes her hair grey and it just so happens to also overlap in symptoms to Whatever Is Wrong With MeTM- and the symptoms are just eerily similar to all the other things I listed 🤣

I can give her Hashimotos 😂 Im actually diagnosed with that.

I mean it can kinda play into the idea that extreme anxiety can like. Idk activate these kinds of problems?

I also have to take into consideration that she's a warrior. And how these issues will effect her ability to fight.

Nox: Don't worry, I've got a few knives up my sleeve. Klaus, just meeting her: I think you mean cards? Aela: She did not. Nox, pulling out knives: I did not.

Breen: Can I have some water? Caroline: *starts chugging her water bottle* Caroline: *chokes from drinking too fast* Caroline: *spills water all over herself* Caroline, coughing: I don't have any water.

Klaus, being genuine: Here you go, Aela, a nice hot cup of coffee! Aela: It's cold. Klaus: A nice cup of coffee. Aela: It's horrible! Klaus:...Cup of coffee. Aela, having flashbacks to his last prank: I'm not sure if this even IS coffee. Klaus: C U P.

Anessa: I have the sharpest memory here - name one time I forgot something! Aela: You left me, Collette, and Breen in a Walmart parking lot at 2am a day ago. Anessa: I did that on purpose, try again.

*Everyone is standing around the broken coffee maker* Aela: So. Who broke it? I'm not mad, I just wanna know. Everyone: Collette: ...I did. I broke it. Aela: No. No you didn't. Klaus? Klaus: Don't look at me. Look at Edmund. Edmund: What?! I didn't break it. Klaus: Huh, that's weird. How'd you even know it was broken? Edmund: Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken. Klaus: Suspicious. Edmund: No, it's not! Breen: If it matters, probably not, but Caroline was the last one to use it. Caroline: Liar! I don't even drink that crap! Breen: Oh really? Then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier? Caroline: I use the wooden stirrers to push back my cuticles. Everyone knows that, Breen! Collette: Okay let's not fight. I broke it. Let me pay for it, Aela. Aela: No! Who broke it!? Everyone: Judy: Aela... Anessa’s been awfully quiet. Anessa: Really?! *Everyone starts arguing* Aela, being interviewed: I broke it. I burned my hand so I punched it. Aela: I predict 10 minutes from now they'll be at each other's throats with war paint on their faces and a pig head on a stick. Aela: Aela: Good. It was getting a little chummy around here.
