Some tesgala sketches I used my 1/4th of a fashion degree to whip up. Didn't do anything super historically accurate like I wanted, but what's scheduled is scheduled.

Asna (she/her) (right) is representing the serpent, which is the sign that she was resurrected/reborn under, with a dawn theme, the role of Magnus being eaten by it being taken by her hair sculpture.

Aldercaine (he/her) (middle) is representing his sign, the atronach, with a dusk theme, a long flowing cape and floating replicas of Masser and Secunda floating in her traditional reachman headdress.

Meridi- I mean- Their Third, an... Ayleid?? (she/her) (left) is representing the steed stone with a fractional light themed look.

Thoughts under the cut:

Thinking that the aspects of modern fashion creeping especially into Asna's and Meridia's outfits are Magna-Ge inspired, particularly with the presence of the serpent, and the fact that the stars that make it are canonically some of Meridia's sisters (in my canon the mage/warrior/thief trio are as well).

Wanted on the technical aspect of things to keep things very cymk for Meridia, whereas the blends of purples and blues fit the more fluid spirit of the inconstancy of mortality, even if they technically both aren't anymore.

Also meant to keep the silhouette of the constellation as pure as possible, thought it would be a fun challenge to keep them incorporated. The gems/blue dots are supposed to be aetherium as a flex, because Meridia is extra like that <3

Lastly, for curious parties, Aldercaine's mirror finish is part of his deals with Molag and Meridia clashing over his vampirism.

A theoretical fic cover for Amur's story, showcasing his one last night of fun on mirror ball island before he set sail with the buggy pirates.

Look at my Captain dog 😭😭😭 I'm not making it back to the Grand Line 😭😭😭

set before One Piece Episode 1 (my own little au)

still image/original artwork (as well as thoughts) under the cut

Trying to figure out how to get as much rendering from the original as possible into the video and taught me a LOT about the software, so I'm really excited to drop this one. I took elements of the PNG as well as procreate staging and essentially cut the file into main model vs background vs foreground. This was different from another project where I used a paper doll anatomy setup. Every moving element came from a merged file, so I ended up doing a lot of erasing and redrawing. Hope you enjoy!

ever since i got my ipad in february 2023, i've made nearly 600 pieces of art, bringing my daily average to about half a full piece.

anyways here's my first piece versus my most recent complete piece

February 13th 2023 ^^

December 29th 2025 ^^

I feel like I still have a lot further to go, but it's nice to look back and see where I was so recently.

THOUGHTS UNDER CUT AGAIN

i tried translating the art technique from my study to an original piece a few days after. i think there's definitely some things lost in translation due to the roundness/density of muscle in the figure i chose to draw (pose by @adorkastock btw i just rounded it out for the character). it's also worth noting that the artist i'm trying to emulate (cardo) works in blender a lot, and might have a better sense of weight and form for it, whereas my placement of color came a bit more randomly (though i was referencing muscle charts a lot, the fat placement skewed it a bit). i like the color composition and the weight/translucence of the fabric for the most part, i futzed with those a lot.

TECHNIQUE STUDY

original by @cardo-de-comer

thoughts under the cut

for this one i didn’t allow myself to color pick anything, it’s all eyeballed. some things i noticed were the initial shapes (i started with a thumbnail approach) were hard for me to block in, as if my eye couldn’t focus on what i was seeing. so i scrapped that and ended up just going for it, and once i sort of put together the correllation between muscle and the shape and placement of the color, i started “getting it”. i allowed myself ~1 hour to do as much as i could. about 4/5ths through i realized my brush texture wasn’t super accurate and did switch to an oil brush for more of the wispier detail, but it was late at that point.

overall very enjoyable, and i highly recommend checking them out because allllll their art is this tasty. i’m definitely going to try their style for study again. soon.
