Vivacias - Under A Larger, Kinder Sky

mind over matter principle.

hai :3 back with more faceless drawings of dina's tattoos and this time i actually share my thoughts on them woohoo!!

When designing them I wanted to go for a much more industrial, black-out look for them as opposed to something more detailed and intricate. They’re hard and heavy and in your face. They serve a purpose and are not meant to look pleasing or inspire anything but wariness. Imo the same way you don’t stop to marvel at the way a road sign is designed, regene tattoos have one purpose and that’s to inform you what you’re looking at is something to be wary of... Didn't stop me from making them look cool, but I imagine since they're standardized depending on the kind of regene that they are pretty to-the-point and featureless beyond bits necessary for identification.

Old comic page I did, depicting the beginning of Rebirth. Something in Chen staring back at Sidestep through the crowd always stuck out to me.

I have been listening to the Hobbit audiobook while working. Bad idea. I didn't work, I drew Bilbo and his fancy home ♥

I've been rereading the broken earth trilogy and finally managed to nail down my Essun design

psst… kettricken is a bottle blonde

Been meaning to draw do fanart for Iron Widow for a while now and I finally got the chance to do a quick one. If you haven't yet, please check out the book Iron Widow!

Do you know this queer character?

Tonkee is transgender and wlw, and uses she/her pronouns!

I'm pathologically fearful of sharing art I do for work online anymore but this just simply means to much for me not to commemorate it so I'm taking advantage of my surge of courage this morning.

Anyway here's some cover art I made for the 10 year Anniversary editions of the Raven Cycle for Owlcrate
