#monmanmoodmon prompt: wip you REALLY want to work on. here's DAY, who first appears in glory to the fool court. His face isnt really ever seen beyond the mask, which i have yet to post a ref sheet for, which means i can just draw whatever until i publish. 2-4 are colour variants, with 3 being the most canon accurate, 5 is the moodboard, 6 is a passage from a short story (?) i wrote, (inaccurately) narrated by aquilo as a version of the story where love surpasses everything, and agnosticism wins against a fevered world parched of logic and reason, and the rest of the court do not feature at all. its on substack so lmk if u wanna read it heh! the court storyline is the planned first book of the main body (??) of my project, though you'll come to see it's sort of discordant from everything that succeeds it. i cant work on it rn because im pretty intent on finishing weird kids, and i have a lot of math + physics concepts to brush up on, but its blanched wasteland, threefold supercult oligarchy, and non-euclidean architecture are all very dear to me. it's a bit personal posting about it but ages ago i saw a photo of the cocullo festival where saint domenico's entire head was wreathed in convolutions of snakes. i couldnt stop thinking about it or how it made me feel and after several years of ruminating and turning things over i sort of had the court storyline, and i finally managed to wrangle it toward the rest of the universe last year. still, it's sort of odd, the idea of ppl reading my stuff at all and subsequently examining this idea of faith as if it could be held in our hands and turned around. anyways. if you can guess even 1 plot point from the moodboard i will pat you on the back. isaiah is exempt from this on ig bc i am pre sure i have already ranted to him abt every single thing that happens extensively. so #hidwellcanon 📖 [s]: in the old world, the stars spoke to each other - astrophysics fantasy / cosmic horror / intergenerational tragedy #artistsoninstagram #characterdesign #oc #bookstagram #indieauthor #originalcharacter #ocdesign #fantasyhorror #cosmichorror #characterdesign #digitalart #illustration #digitalpainting #writergram

#hidwellcanon "[...] Well, Rasmussen was the first one into that dark water - he's always the first one, he was just so excited to.... [indistinct] I don't know. None of that mob were ever gonna turn out all that well, if we're honest here, but I feel something about it sometimes. Not sorry. I don't feel sorry for them. But I feel something. None of his friends heard it up-close, only Rasmussen. He got that drowned whisper from the dark, kept it close to him, ran a few laps, brought it back to school with him, didn't know what else to do. He was still a kid, then. He had... unsteady hands when he was little. Too huge to really get a hold of, what he learnt, so he told Krastev. Believe it or not they were real friendly when they were little kids, pissing away all of summer over the farm. I think that [indistinct] I think that Krastev got the worst of it. I don't think... he was ever the same after that. I mean, we all say it was the painkillers, but he was a nice boy, back in year nine. He would've kept the secret to himself, too. But of course Stolt had to ask - Stolt was the runt of the lot, even back then, always looking for any way to get his foot in the door, you know, any way to step up to Rass. And Stolt's never kept a thing to himself so he told Dean who told Yosuke who told Johnny. And you know what happened to Yosuke. And it can't be Carver next, because Carver's too high on the food chain now, so it has to be you, Ming. It's going to be you."

swipe to see clothes and details and stuff my entry for @m0dazine #m0dazine5k !!! i chose to draw taffy and minghua in MCBLING!!! i was thinking about jdm export magazines adn those $2-4(?) magazines off the racks at the supermarket in like.... 2008.... i lov thinking about oc style/ mcbling fits them in their bedazzled glory/ minghua is the patron of prismatic diffraction and so the patron of colour trapped in the space from eye to eye and so the patron of possibility limited only by what its vessels will hold, taffy is one of rasmussen's foils/ this was really fun to draw bc ive been angsting over rasmussen's 2017 sneakerhead hypebeast wardrobe for ages.... smth fun and colourful for a change, w clothes to match!!!!! Kthanxbai!! #art #oc #illustration #hidwellcanon

AS IF I EVER HAD A CHOICE. swipe for all my cool colours! 🐒 if u saw this earlier no u didn't, i fixed it now #invincible #markgrayson #invincibleoc #art #illustration

#hidwellcanon [ i hear it through the spring squalls and across the hummingbirds' private dialect that concerns itself with miracles entire and cherishes little else- in the salt spray it saves me, this travelling, righting sound; to the temple it does not come at all. no less indelible, (...) infallible: you must not let god break you to have something He can mend. ] brianne (left) and arina (right) brianne is the adopted sister and mediator of sublime and scherzo, night's intact son-sculptures; arina is a saturation diver resurrected from the plague era in '72. after 23 consecutive half-lives spent trying to brutalise tommy, shes pretty good friends with him. actually, these two havent even met, yet, but they both have a sweeter spin on the transformation/water motif many other characters bastardise ive been thinking about the tone of my work recently, especially moving past my horror stuff and into the pantheon. many parts and tails and loose innards of the story insist that there is no point in assigning human conventions of morality and responsibility, often determined by consequence and time, onto gods. consequently certain characters' moral codes twist and shake as they mull that over... there are so many ways to be human, to seek and cherish loveliness, and to love- many are unrecognisable. nevertheless brianne and arina are two of the most virtuous characters i have despite all the difficult stuff theyre put through and the actions of those closest to them. consistently reliable and merciful and tender. they do what they can whenever they can, and over in the distance the tides rollick and gossip to clandestine and well-learned rhythms also, please read "radiance vs ordinary light" by carl phillips.... break your heart, break mine #art #originalcharacter #illustration #oc

swipe ➡️ for close ups and original colours you wont regret it. im really proud of the armour here!! also lots of colour variants. always super super grateful to draw these two!!! #art #illustration #darkfantasy #digitalart #fantasy

WEAPONS COLLAB!!!!!!!! THIS WAS SO SO SO FUN i so enjoyed testing out all the stuff i learnt about character design over this last year, and seeing everyone else's creativity on display was SOO AMAZING ahhhhhh also this was rlly rlly challenging for me it took ages and reminded me i need to lock in for composition!!!!!!! ANYWAYS i designed the meteor hammer, and i had so much fun w the colours n themes i was going for that i got a minghua design out of it!!!! my iteration of the meteor hammer has an astronomical + musical theme, cos, u know, #hidwellcanon , alchemies of sound and light and space, half bell, half spiked flail, as planetary as i could make it without going completely off the rails. i rlly wanted him to have a pronounced kinda hourglass silhouette to reflect the meteor hammer's weights + duality, hence the disjointed sleeve!!! i liked the alt design i cooked up for this so much i recycled it into minuet (last slide) pls swipe for all the other weaponlings ok the character select screens r so so so so cool Scythe: @halfassedtea Battle fan: @mongmong0137 Gauntlet: @_kimsugii Katana: @hazeoki Greatsword: @l3m0n_pie Battle Axe: @mokkegeko Rapier: @ganadarart Dagger: @spookiiro Shield: @arialavie Whip: @moe_woe27 Bow: @feelin_anemoia Crossbow: @mintish_chococookie Khopesh: @halite.salt Bakh Nakh: @shanoiasuna Shuriken: @unagiiri Haladie: @hyperwashere Nunchuck: @ssiminie #art #oc #illustration #originalcharacter

patron of mass extinction. long time no villainposting (not that long) the vivisected boygod of the twenty-seventh lunar mansion, the irradiated pyrite wasteland. the exquisite distillation: porcelain gargoyle, planet eater, composer of tragedies, deigned the patron of mass extinction. #hidwellcanon swipe for colour variants, details, inspiration. had lots of fun trying to pin down the fool's gold texture of Hys body. credit to tvblestools for showing me the clone stamp #digitalart #procreate #arttrend #artchallenge #illustration #art #oc ##originalcharacter

repost - i had to fix some mistakes ! "(1) venerating horror vacui (2) in defense of the predestination paradox two sacrifices, heads raised towards the stars, startle, swallow, and finally speak. COCKHEAD: GOD- when you took my milk teeth i was only joking when i said i wanted them back. there was a mistranslation: when i was in the dark room confined, my want for eyes was to be placed where the sun comes in. GOD- i did not ask to be handsome. i would have been happy with my face. SCHERZO: never would i have wanted- i will stay the entirety of my long life in your belly. i would have liked at least to see your teeth. COCKHEAD: i will die here. SCHERZO: i would have always died here." ➡️ full image, colour variants, detail. really wanted to contrast scherzo's electric blues and the gritty monochromes of the wasteland. ive been chipping out some progress for my cosmic horror work and the pantheon. the pantheon dont interact outside of their own often but these 2 are special. their relationship is fun to think about as the plot moves away from the threefold supercult oligarchy arc. 📖: these guys are introduced in glory to the fool court but arent the focus until the sons of night// scherzo is a deity of mathematical axioms and quantum entanglement building a new library of alexandria for his Father, night; cockhead is the halfway excavated sacrificial prince of the newest of the 3 cults, selectively bred to carry the names and faces of a commune of farmers that mass-congregate to starve the continent after their lands are irradiated by the third sun, the nuke that was god™️ they kind of have like a toxic yaoi thing going on #digitalart #hidwellcanon #illustration #poster #design #oc #originalcharacter

sorry that ive posted and deleted this like ten times. i keep noticing mistakes and stuff. this piece was inspired by my thoughts and feelings for my dearest so i got to get it right. if it's not out of love why paint at all thinking of the following while painting, its stuck in my head - have you forgotten what we were like then when we were still first rate and the day came fat with an apple in its mouth it's no use worrying about time but we did have a few tricks up our sleeves and turned some sharp corners the whole pasture looked like our meal we didn't need speedometers we could manage cocktails out of ice and water i wouldn't want to be faster or greener than now if you were with me O you were the best of all my days - frank o'hara, animals. ➡️ bunch of colour variants and detail posts some less eye strainy than others but some REALLY eye strainy you have been warned experimenting with painting lightly over 3 textures from tkdesigns texture pack + using a looser, less compact rendering style. other textures are directly painted + isolated from my own photography. also buncha bug pictures and circuitboard pics i found #thesummerhikarudied #hikarugashindanatsu #tshd #hgsn #yoshikaru #yoshikitsujinaka #hikaruindou #digitalart #illustration #design #poster #procreate
