And then boom the true form of archangel Gabriel in my interpretation

I wanted to do something anthropomorphic, but still reflecting this chthonic and frightening, but also with references... so Gabriel seems to be very close to the image of a man, but he hides his face behind the wings, and no one knows what this face is

He creates as many wings and arms as he wants, because in general he can change his shape any way he wants, but we‘re tryna find some kind of stability here

Plus, he has a halo with a pattern of a six-petalled lily - a reference to the lily with which he appears in the Catholic tradition

A little sketch of a drawing of Angel Gabriel. I want to make it in a big format.

But in the time, I want to show you this.

Yes, is inspired in supernatural, because I am obsessed with the serie and with the angelcore

Back on my trueform angels bullshit, this time with the archangels

I'll reblog this with the design concept stuff and reasoning later

[tytoz]

Thank you!! I’m glad you like them...though tbh I’ve been very lazy when it comes to drawing these guys so I put a bit more effort into my sketches for this one. 

Gabriel is first and foremost a messenger, The messenger that brings forth everything, from news this virgin is gonna have a child to blowing his trumpet when the end of the world comes. So when I think of messenger, I think if birds. Birds have been used as messengers for thousands of years and his true self reflects this. It doesn’t mean that he can’t appear as a dragon after all he’s not only Gabriel he’s also Loki and as Loki (or Gabriel) he can appear as whatever he wants.

I also did his true form before though I do think he needed the revamp: here 

Raphael is described in the bible as a healer and while I think that can be true. He’s also extremely hardened to other suffering. It’s hard to be empathetic and treat those wounded or hurt. So, along the way he stopped caring. He’s always the dutiful brother who listens to his older brother Michael and believing that he can do no wrong. Taking every order without hesitation. 

I also redid my Lucifer design a bit...it was pretty halfassed so here is a better one. Kinda. But my thoughts on him still stand, Lucifer was once the most beautiful of Gods angels but after the fall he became permanently scared, forever bleeding from his wounds, and never truly healing. I also switched his wolf skull head with a Megalania one. Keeping a more dragon/serpent vibe with him.

Trueform Archangels because I love them all so much. This was actually heavily inspired by @consulting-cannibal ‘s amazing pieces on these preciouses (I hope she won’t mind). They’re not nearly as beautiful but hey, I tried (:

Some trueform angels wip! When I’m done with the easier stuff I’ll go back on them! 1st one is Balthazar, 2nd is Gabriel, 3rd is Michael. As a size reference, I think Bal is more or less Cas’ size (320m) when Gabriel is more 800m and Michael is the biggest. 

My headcanon is that, the more an angel is closer to humanity, the more human he looks. That’s why Michael looks like nothing, btw this design is also easier to make into gif later.

Sam never told Gabriel about his fear of clowns and never will because he doesn't want to be teased about it. Gabriel never misses the way Sam would flinch when the word 'Clown' is said or seen on TV. A band of guys with heavy make-up on came cruising by and Sam flinched away to be close to Gabriel and gripping the archangel's forearm, whimpering softly and mumbling the words 'leave me alone' and Gabriel going Godzilla on any clown that passes by to protect his moose.

It's hardly a secret. Sam isn't exactly subtle about it, even though he seems to think he's hiding his reactions, and Gabriel decides not to make an issue of it. If Sam ever wants to bring it up, that's up to him.

Incidental encounters are one thing – posters, television, the occasional graffiti. But it's another situation altogether when Sam is getting intentionally antagonized, and Gabriel doesn't tend to respond well to that, to say the least.

It's a few days before Halloween, and a raucous bunch of teenagers are making their way down the sidewalk in the waning dusk. Their faces are made up in macabre paleness, their features exaggerated with paint and makeup. They're stalking other pedestrians, leering creepily and making rude comments and occasionally boxing someone in against a storefront, harassing them until either a can of mace or a threat to call the police sends them cackling off to their next victim.

Sam is trying valiantly to ignore their approach as he and Gabriel come up on the restaurant where they were planning to grab a late dinner. Gabriel has been calling it "date night" all day, while Sam has kept rolling his eyes and smiling and shushing him because "we can't have a date night, Gabe, we're on a case," but obviously it's date night because Gabriel decided and he's an archangel so his decisions are to-the-end-of-the-universe final, and that's that.

And no group of asshole kids is gonna mess it up.

Sam's body is exuding every telltale sign of anxiety, so much that Gabriel can almost smell it, as one of the gang notices them. Gabriel has no doubt about the types of slurs that are sure to be fired in their direction, and he grips Sam's hand a bit tighter as the pack of clown-faced miscreants hones in on them. Just as they enter jeering distance, Gabriel twitches his fingers and throws a filter on the other passers-by perceptions.

His brows drop dangerously as his eyes narrow, his shoulders hunch as though coiling for attack, and he draws in a breath and roars. The reality around him cracks with light and flame, eyes and fangs and feathers, molten gold and blue-white heat, screeching, surging, thundering. The ground quakes, the air vibrates in deafening pulses, and "terror" doesn't even begin to describe the mob's reaction.

Another twitch of fingers and everyone else on the street stumbles to get out of the way of the inexplicably panicked, hysteric stampede of hooligans. Gabriel just grins brightly up at Sam and nudges him toward the door of the restaurant.
