It's March and i'm finally posting Syrrys and his raptor hanging out in the flowers xD
This is my piece for this year @calendar-krewe ✨
This is one of my most struggled pieces but also one from which i've learned a lot!

some director sketches I've been meaning to upload here for like. seven weeks!!!
similar to my Sebb Posting, assorted thoughts and ramblings below the cut
I. am not quite sure what to make of him lmao. all his motivations seem particularly murky to me (and I'm sure that's intentional) so this is just gonna be some Wild Speculating. I do genuinely think I need more information about him and his motives bc even he himself DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING.....
that alone makes him compelling. and also maybe stupid. which makes him even more compelling.
I think vloxx's hero complex spills over into some form of a martyr complex. I mean, he himself says that he "has no desire for power or legacy" but is like. still taking on all this responsibility and danger and probably is going to put himself through IMMENSE DISCOMFORT for NO REASON.
(this also leads me to believe that he's a bit of a masochist but in like.... a Mental Anguish sort of way. not so much chains and whips.)
his backstory is surprisingly well fleshed out??? I feel like the suspicious gap in his history is a huge tell to what his motivations will end up being (if we ever DO end up learning what that suspicious gap in his resume is).
"you deserve better" was such a sultry, loaded line and it genuinely made my heart skip. what does that MEAN. what the fuck does that mean. vloxx come back. vloxx. what the hell are you talking about what does the Commander DESERVE? is he talking about ascension? retirement??? pampering?? what the fuck. wgat the fukcccc.
I think it's craaaazyyyy that vloxx "trusts [us] entirely" and is our "sincerest admirer." I really hope that sort of worship/admiration is expanded upon. OR. or. vloxx is just lying through his teeth to butter us up in order to get us to trust/work with him. but flattery also isn't a major motivator for the commander?? idk, the Commander is very humble; not swayed or convinced by flattery. which vloxx would probably know if he knows that much about us. which makes me believe it's sincere. but I don't knowww.
there was a post floating around in december that posited the theory that vloxx was maybe once part of the astral ward, or knew about it before the masses of Tyria did (if that was you, PLEASE let me know. or link it. it was so good). How else would he have known about ancora and ascensions? did he gain access to some sort of information kept deep within the astral ward's vaults about these upcoming catastrophic events that he keeps alluding to?
I also LOVE the theory of vloxx forcibly ascending the Commander. it's so hot. sorry. sorry. I'm so sorry but that's such a crazy fucked up theory that could lead to so many things going wrong that it's flipped a complete 180 into being something that's incredibly sexy.
and I do think that whatever ends up happening in this expansion, the Commander and Vloxx are going to be side by side.
I also love that it's pretty much universally agreed upon that vloxx has a gold inlay, limited edition physical copy of Commander of Your Heart by Snargle Goldclaw
vloxx probably also carries some sort of lip balm on his person at all times
A bit late but these were the Ko-Fi rewards from December~ I finally got my pen nibs back so I'm catching up on everything! Next week the vsartparty drawings should come along! Thanks for your patience and support! <3

The journal got two new pages. It's now in "Order Neophyte" phase. At first I wanted to keep it PG with no curse words, but you know what? The politics game is so messed up, that I don't think Gnom would try not to curse them out in his personal journal. He is an asura, it's in his blood.
My last drawing of the year of one of my favorite characters with its mystery and suspense story, I love its aesthetic, I like to draw with different styles
