Okay, we got a new one, boys.

Close enough welcome back Chekov's gun.

Prev you can’t bury this in your own tags

ID: A screenshot of tags left on the tumblr post. They read "#it's actually kind of a reverse Chekhov's Gun #Chekhov's Gun says "If there is setup there must be payoff" #Asimov's Tail says "if there is payoff there must be setup" #and I think the tail is also important #a tail is not something you'd expect to see on a character unless explicitly pointed out #someone stepping on the tail not only reveals its existence but also tells us things about it #eg it's floor length sensitive and the character either can't or won't keep it out of the way of foot traffic #the upshot seems to be "acclimatise your audience to things they don't understand before you use them" #you don't need to explain how a gun on the mantelpiece works in the same way you need to explain how your protagonist's tail does" End ID.

Another sword, another cairn. Cut up an old necklace for the chain. The background fabric is scrap fabric from a thrift shop in Edinburgh, Scotland. Photo doesn't do the fabric justice! It's very pretty!

(Also, yes - the sword CAN come out!)

Had a day. Stabbed this into existence. It's being shipped off to a friend soon, but I'm pretty amused by it so I thought I'd share it here!

Second sword-embroidery, this time with roses and (?) blueberries.

(I'm not as happy with this one as the other - I think the foliage looks a bit too yellowish and the sword disappears because of it.)

Does it count as 'sword in the stone' if it looks more like 'sword in the cairn'...?

Reze Arc still has a hold on me. This was supposed to be a sketch

🎉My final contribution to

Illustrations for the timeline section! We worked with a road trip theme, so I made a little gas station pit-stop scene and a Fallout-style welcome sign for Eden!
