Art Prompts

[alias_sqbr]

Fanart or original! I may ask for references if it's not something I'm familiar with.

Please no: zombies(*), or anything too sexy or squicky.

I've been having trouble motivating myself to draw lately due to arm pain, so these may be a bit slow, but I do really like drawing so it'll be good to have some motivation to do it.

(*)I only have a problem with the mindless contagious sort, or really gross decay. Possessed/controlled corpses or skeletons are fine, and vampires are A+.

Here are a few. I don't expect them all, just pick one if it inspires you.

Some Australian native flowers (Banksia or kangaroo paws in particular).
Any of the characters from Venom.
Thirteenth Doctor, with or without companions/TARDIS.
Crocodiles or snakes, just sunning themselves like noodles.

I hope your arm pain gets better.

[alias_sqbr]

I only managed two of your prompts but it is an Australian snake :) https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/611579381546205184/drawn-for-cupidsbower-you-cant-really-tell-in

[cupidsbow]

That's fantastic!!! Thank you so much. :)

I'm really into XiCheng at the moment so I'd love something with Lan Xichen and Jiang Cheng! <<

I'd be happy w anything - doing sect leader paperwork, sparring, night hunting... Anything you like!

[alias_sqbr]

Donghua/novel style ok or would you rather I used the designs from the Untamed?

[velithya]

I personally prefer the Untamed designs but if you're more comfy/it's easier for you then the Donghua style is fine! As long as it's clear that it's Lan Xichen and not Lan Wangji lol :P I have trouble telling them apart sometimes in Donghua style fanart haha

[alias_sqbr]

I found some Untamed outfits that I could imagine the donghua versions wearing, using the donghua as a guide to making everything more Anime, hopefully they still look right! This is such a cute pairing, I got the idea for the picture the moment I read your prompt :) https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/611535146505601024/lan-xichen-gently-smiles-and-puts-up-jiang-chengs

And you know it's Lan Xichen cos he's smiling ;)

[velithya]

oh my god I'm screaming oh my god that's adorable :D :D :D :D

If you think this is a cute pairing my AO3 bookmarks have some fic you might want to look into reading at some stage!!!! hahaha

Are you gonna post this on twitter so I can retweet it with some keymashing or should I just link to the tumblr post?? I MUST SHARE THIS IT'S ADORABLE

ETA: THANK YOU

[alias_sqbr]

Yay, I'm really glad you like it! pokes bookmarks

[velithya]

Also I don't think I have much/any of it bookmarked but Syriala has some super cute Xicheng fanfics!

[shadaras]

Hua Cheng and his butterflies?

[alias_sqbr]

Here you go! https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/611778319763062784/hua-cheng-from-heaven-officials-blessing-sadly

[shadaras]

Aw, he's so sad and pretty! <3

[alias_sqbr]

Thank you!

Logged-off for vague persona separation, but I'm isabel_lunnen on Twitter (I think you know who I am in fandom).

- I wasn't sure if "original" encompasses OCs, so if not, or just if you prefer it, Darcy/Elizabeth + "After walking several miles in a leisurely manner, and too busy to know any thing about it..." Interpret as you please. ;)

- Otherwise ... I kept thinking about your comment from a few months ago that I should try converting the novel to a visual one. So I was wondering how you'd interpret one of the protagonists in something along that line! She's a frenemy of the dragon you drew before, and a tiny (*googles* 147.3 cm/4 ft 10 in) fire mage with dark hair, brown skin, and blue eyes; she grows up to look roughly like this— https://66.media.tumblr.com/ca4f65ad5d0edfd88b577986034dc2bc/tumblr_ppf0baUIjZ1rsy3fxo4_400.jpg—but is currently 12. Her preferred method of illumination is conjuring fires on her palm. (This is part of the frenmity with the dragon, who has yet to figure out how to breathe fire.)

[alias_sqbr]

Here you go! I hope she looks about right!

It was fun designing a Visual Novel sprite without having to draw ten million more like it with lots of expressions etc :)

(I sent this as a message but am leaving it as a comment too so other people can see the link)

[isabel_lunnen]

I also sent a message (and reblogged on Tumblr, and linked on Wordpress...) but I'm still just !!!!!!

She looks perfect! Thank you so much—now I really need to finish this thing!

[alias_sqbr]

Ah, I'm so glad you like the picture. And I look forward to reading your book when you're done :)

(Also let me know if the permissions on the game don't work dropbox can be weird sometimes)

[isabel_lunnen]

Thank you very much! I hope you'll enjoy as much as I enjoyed this :D

And omg, I didn't figure out the download until you mentioned it. Haha, I love her little scowl and then the flame appearing and the whole ... game concept! <333

[alias_sqbr]

:D

[lilacsigil]

A good* ending from one of the dating sims you've been playing.

*For your definition of good, not the game's!

[alias_sqbr]

When I saw this comment I thought "Hmm, generally with dating sims there's already cute CGs of the characters, so there's not much left to...OH WAIT. I KNOW WHAT TO DRAW"

So thanks for the inspiration to show the world how this route should have ended :) https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/612025760981630976/the-main-character-of-samurai-love-ballad-party

[cheshirenoir]

"That time that Aardvark nearly conquered the world."

Make of that what you will.

[alias_sqbr]

How he nearly conquered the world is left to the imagination :) https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/612075718376095744/an-evil-looking-aardvark-drawing-heavily-on

[cheshirenoir]

That's awesome! Definitely some moustache twirling villany going on there.

[alias_sqbr]

I mean aardvarks don't naturally have facial hair, so if he's gone to all the trouble of obtaining a moustache he has to have reasons to twirl it!

[cloudwrack]

Finn, Rey, and Poe group hug!

Alternately, since I just started reading MDZS/watching The Untamed: Wen Ning and Wei Wuxian hanging out in any context (& or / relationship, I'm not fussed - I just love WN so much. ;o;) (I assume he's fine under the possessed/controlled corpse rule, but please ignore if not!)

[alias_sqbr]

Both very good prompts, but the world is more lacking in Wei Wuxian/Wei Ning hugs so that's what I drew :) https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/612451720973402112/wei-wuxian-cheerfully-hugs-a-shyly-smiling-wen

Also, one of my priorities when writing this post was making sure I didn't exclude Wen Ning. The only problem was that every time I looked at references(*) I got all "Wen Ning ;_;".

(*)even in stills, despite having not watched the Untamed, that Wen Ning radiates Needs A Hug.

[cloudwrack]

♥ ♥ ♥ WEN NING!! His little smile next to Wei Wuxian's giant grin! I love it so much (and think the design smoosh you went for works great).

[alias_sqbr]

Yay, thank you :)

[waterscroll]

I know I'm late to this but...any chance you could draw Chizuru dual-wielding? With or without Kazuya teaching her how.
ETA: Now that I'm thinking about this, you might have drawn it for me already, but if so I'm having trouble finding it. :(

Alternatively: Sen drinking Kimigiku's blood. Or Kazama's blood, that could also be fun.

Or: that duel between Chitose and Yukina that we were promised and never saw. She gets to spar with his epic flaming sword! Alternatively, Yukina passing on the epic flaming sword to Kazama-route Chizuru.

[alias_sqbr]

These are all very good prompts. I misread but hopefully this is close enough! https://alias-sqbr.tumblr.com/post/612539570724175872/chizuru-smiles-and-holds-two-katanas-to-the-throat '
