Embrace

What’s it like to get hugged by hair? Only Shiro knows. And yes she’s probably standing on a box or something because he’s at least a foot taller than her normally. And this is in her garden on board the Castle… I seem to like backlighting things this month. (side note: there are lots of Japanese horror stories involving hair. I hope that doesn’t bother him. >.> ) But anyway this was the point of all my Voltron fanstuff: to get Shiro into a hug. A hug with a girl involved, but not Pidge and Allura because I don’t know who the show is going to ship them with yet. Also girls’ existence shouldn’t be reduced to shipping partners (says the woman who just made a female character solely to be a shipping partner). Continue reading →

Quinnkulina sketches

Can’t stop drawing my favourite yandere and her chew toy… mostly thanks to their new, much more appropriate romance theme song. Top left: yandere being yandere in bed. Top right: difficult to work when your boss is a Sith Lord and also your girlfriend and also likes cuddling to sleep at inopportune times. Bottom left: be careful what thoughts you think when shirtless lest it summon a horny Sith Lord girlfriend. Bottom right: just trying to get the hang of her face/clothes in my own style. These two both have absolutely fabulous cheekbones.

Telling that I can seemingly only draw her being vulnerable when she’s asleep. Continue reading →

After Hoth

A quick picture made from a screenshot to go with the post-Hoth interlude of My Cruel Valentine. Quinn was originally going to be holding a stylus, but without his other hand visible holding a datapad, it just looked like he was holding a sharp pointy thing which kind of ruined the mood. So, nah. Used references (pasted other screenshots and drew over them) for both Quinn and Akuliina. Realized too late she should probably be wearing her grey dress instead of her red battle armour, but meh. All you can see is her pants anyway. But she’s not wearing make-up because she just had a shower. Continue reading →

Elslince

My Voltron: Legendary Defender OC, Elslince, a green plant woman from the planet Teler for my romance/hurt/comfort fanfic. Studying to be a doctor to help the Teleran Resistance against Zarkon. Telerans have yellow blood so her blush is yellow. They also have prehensile hair and star-shaped pupils. Also, possibly my first character who wears pink?

Been listening to Zenzenzense (poor sound quality but translations! also the same version as is available on iTunes and not some cover) and Nandemonaiya (which is not the same as the iTunes version, but at least it’s RADWIMPS) while drawing this and just in general. Guess they’re my soundtrack for Voltron plantshipping now!

Dang, Akuliina is being super distracting today. And forever. Guess I’m drawing her next, and not in a shippy way, either. *shock*

Detailed head-er

Click for larger. Decided it was high time to turn the temporary header into a slightly more detailed header. I tweaked the anatomy a little bit but Esgalwen’s nose is still blurp. I mostly did this to procrastinate on the last Transistor fanart which is the most ambitious one. I may tweak this further but it’s a lot shinier than it was before.

This week I found out that front break-falls in karate have been messing up my neck so not going to do those anymore.

The Spine of My World

CLICK FOR LARGER

SO GUYS I think I figured out what the Spine is about. At least for me. It’s another love song for [John], as in: he is the backbone of her world…? Anyway I made a visual representation of the two verses and refrain. At first I was just going to do John, when I realized that verse 1 is entirely about Red. The interlude is still incomprehensible but I thought this was kind of neat.

Also, references: frame is from Tigers-stock, John’s hands are referenced from a random Shutterstock photo. I’m not 100% happy with his head but I’m not sure how to fix it so I’m not. For Red, I was going to use Night’s Rest by Mucha of course, but then it turns out that the reason I wanted to use it was because I was subconsciously thinking of the Transistor album cover! So I didn’t. : P

The Kiss

Another scene from my fanfic, the first kiss. It was surprisingly difficult to find image references of kissing couples with a big height difference. I also looked up art nouveau kitchens, and the pattern around the edge is based on that one picture of Red eating pizza with the sink in the background. I’m not sure my ‘art nouveau’ fits into what we see of her apartment there, but I tried, guys, I tried.

Two more Transistor images to go! One based on The Spine (I think I finally figured out an interpretation I like) and one based on the Delain song Stardust. Those ones will be more paint-intensive, so will take longer.
