Hi, I'm whevs!

I'm a vector-oriented artist who draws in a cartoony style.

I like fantasy genre, dragons, fairies, mermaids and cartoons.

I also enjoy Greek mythology, but I have a second blog dedicated to it. This blog is mostly "everything else that is not mythology".

Smaugust 2023 bonus! Young Malefor, the Chronicler and Pyra!

Context for who's Pyra:

"Pyra is a young dragon in The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning that appeared in one of Ignitus's flashbacks. He was Ignitus' battle squire, the banner-bearer for Ignitus' battalion of war dragons called the "Inferno Battalion" during the war against Malefor's armies. Although he didn't make a full appearance in the trilogy, Jared Pullen, lead concept artist of A New Beginning and The Eternal Night created a backstory for Pyra." - The Legend of Spyro fandom wiki.

Q&A with Jared Pullen Lead Concept Artist of TLoS. (Date Posted - Feb 19, 2016).

While it's a well-known fact that most book-based musicals greatly alter the basic premise of the original, I found it amusing to imagine the reactions of the key characters in these works to those alterations.

As much as I love musicals, I came to the conclusion that listening to the songs out of context can sometimes be the better choice, because seriously, some of those stage productions lost their grip on basic common sense for the sake of emotional impact, which resulted in a rather corny experience when viewing the whole picture. I'm not saying mindless entertainment is bad, however, I do think that musicals, when based on a classical literary source, should pay due respect to the original and preserve the original message, rather than changing everything at the core for the sake of emotions that weren't there in the first place.

A selection of narrative drawings I made in May 2023.

I've been thinking about drawing a sequel, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

A collab my friend (@sinderyden) and I did, based on a conversation we had about the Roman retellings of Greek myths and how much mass media often confuses the two.

This happened to me more often than I'm willing to admit.

Reading various mythological canons on the subject of the Odyssey, whether Scholia or Roman authors that divert so much from the Greek original is both hilarious and infuriating.

One can only guess what reactions the characters of these myths would have to these rewrites. p.s. Poor Telemachus. He had it rough too.

My absolutely positive experience with Supergiant Games' Hades.

I love this game.

It was my best friend's birthday (@sinderyden), so I've spent the entire May drawing her gifts with her Tav - Mirna - from Baldur's Gate 3 and Gortash, creating a small AU based on The Phantom of the Opera (one of her favorite books).

Happy belated birthday, Sindery! ^-^

Oh? Silksong is out? Time to remember the most embarrassing situation I've had in Hollow Knight.

A redesign of my old Steven Universe OC - Citrine (he/him). I'm still sad that there was no canonical citrine in the series!
