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!!

#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

im drawing my ocs as viltrumites rn because episode 2 had me so shook viltrumite socirty is everythijg i wanted it to be. here's johnny and krastev. each one of johnny's rings from braid to neck to fingers represent a planet conquered; krastev is, believe it or not, part of viltrum's genetic research and works with kregg

tommy and arina's side of the old, old story (when the end comes we'll finally sing) has a much more outright horror lean than other parts that kinda sneak in the dark crux of the tale But U Genuinely would not know it bc i have no serious art of him. That stops now maybe? maybe. Anyways i have all my art of him in my .finalsong highlight now
tommy himself has a thematic focus on glitch horror, the uncanny infinity of urban legends and mythos in the digital age, the omnipresence of the internet as a humanity-homogenising deity, and yk, all the terror and wonder that that entails. angels are machines are gods are the internet u know what i always say
anyways i chucked some old art of him thru the sora pixel converter for fun. also added a piece of the little monologue he does when he's reunited with marigold, long long long after she puts him down and brings him back wrong. hes a motherfucker hes a bastard hell live forever hes the worst just the worst #originalcharacter #oc #illustration #digitalart oc art digitalart originalcharacter horror horroroc
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!!!

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

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.

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
