Ichigo-Hime

A "powderless", or pure, clear, and crystalline version of Watermelon tourmaline from land of the lustrous sits in the center of a lotus flower.

A blue crystalline figure in a white robe (Hemimorphite) sits on the edge of the temple pond with her feet and lower legs in the water as it rains. Lily pads surround her and a frog sits nearby curious at the scene.

The Dreaming one and the Grounded one

Land of the lustrous Watermelon Tourmaline and Hemimorphite

Hemimorphite - Land of the Lustrous / Houseki no Kuni

Wanted to make a sister piece to my Watermelon Tourmaline image I did a bit back (Cause I love this pair)

While Watermelon's is more fantastical, I wanted Hemimorphite's to feel more grounded while still keeping the dream-like quality.

Woon (the central figure dressed in pirate garb, with a cat tail and a tricorn cat) Examines a beautiful jewel white sitting atop a throne place at the peak of a pile of gold. Two sirens, one male(left) one female(right), approach from either side of the pirate: But woon only has eyes for their prized jewel. A fun detail about the sirens: The siren woman on the right's jewelry is largely made up of shark teeth: representing their role as the primary hunting group while the male siren mostly wears decorative and pretty shells!

Got this as a fun Commission from a friend of mine!

Their character is named Woon, new costume and had fun designing this!
I loved the vibe of the character they described and definitely had fun designing the sirens!

(labeled it as mature just to be safe, but nothing scandalous is showing)

Alexandrite holds a broken heart made of chrysoberyl in between her hands as shards of chrysoberyl swirl around her. Chrysoberyl's hands rest on her shoulders, representing how alexandrite still feels her presence even though she's no longer around. alexandrite's hair swirls around her, turning red from rage and grief as she looks at what she lost.

Missing Pieces

Alexandrite - Land of the Lustrous

Image of martin featuring the three phases of his personal journey, on the left is him during the early stages of your interactions with him, where he is, in his head, still just a priest of akatosh who is in way over his head but still here to help you. The Middle represents him, more confident in his new role, dressed in armor and ready to lead the charge. The right he is in his emperor robes, with an understanding of his greater role in the universe and what he most do and what he must become. In the back on the right is mehrunes dagon, focused and ready to attack whatever is in his way, in the middle, the oblivion gate, on the right is the avatar of akatosh itself, in all its fiery radiant glory.

YALL, OBLIVION GOT REMASTERED AND YALL HAVE NO IDEA HOW PSYCHED I AM

i have had a crush on martin since i was A KID so I mean

This was from my old, deleted twitter, never reposted it cause i felt like i couldn't do martin enough justice

Grimora approaches Royal Dominguez as he watches out a window, telescope in hand. Grimora: "Tell me Royal, any signs of our dear challenger yet? I am quite excited to see those "Movies" she mentioned" Royal: "Nothing seen from the crows nest yet Ma'am. ...Wait a second." Royal turns so his voice can reach those inside the crypt royal: "CHALLENGER APPROACHING FROM THE STARBOARD BOW" Grimora's reaches for Royals telscope. Grimora: "Splendid, would you mind if i take a look?" Royal: "Of course Lady Grimora" Grimora: "Would you look at that! There she is! And she brought one of Magnificus' mage pupils and is that... P03?!?" While Grimora is speaking, The lonely wizard, the challenger, and an out of frame p03 are seen walking along a trail. The lonely wizard stops to examin a set of skeletal hands popping out of the ground while the challenger worries over him. by the next panel the lens is focused on p03 while the challenger and the lonely wizard are seen recoiling, presumably the hands tried to grab them. Grimora lowers the telescope and worries over the situation with royal Royal: "Now what's the challenger doing bringing that bucket of bolts to our turf?" Grimora: "... I am unsure. I would not think he would come all this way just to enjoy this "movie night" with us." royal: "but don't go starting any fights just yet. Those to be your orders correct?" Grimora: "Yes." The panel changes and we see the challenger laughing about the previous encounter while the lonely wizard watches the ground worriedly. P03 looks at the pair annoyed by the delay. Now done with their journey the three enter the crypt with The challenger shouting. "Guess whose back! And with some friends for movie night." The lonely wizard is curious about the crypt while P03 looks absolutely done with the situation.

Challenger: "INTRODUCING! All the way from the mage tower they may not know their name anymore but they know how to have fun!" more quietly "Though i've been calling them "Blue" and they seem to respond well to it." "And our VIP, the scrybe of technology himself, P03!! He has very generously offered his wifi and his monitor to play our movies for tonight! Make sure you give him your thanks!" Grimora, putting her hand on P03's shoulder: "Well, as one scrybe to another, i give you my sincere thanks for taking time away from your factory to help us make our movie night a success" P03: "Yeah, whatever. Let's get this over with so i can get back to doing something actually useful. You do absolutely owe me for this though. Grimora: "Movie night's" In the trader's room. Head on in and I'll be there in just a moment!" As the lonely wizard and p03 make their way to the room, grimora stops the challanger by gently grabby her wrist as she passes by. Grimora, whispering: "Do tell me, how on earth did you manage to get P03 to volunteer his face as a tv for our "movie night"? Challenger: "Oh that? It was much easier than you think. I made a bet with him, whoever won best 2 out of 3 would win. And he was SO sure he would win. but then he lost once... twice... each time by oh, i don't know. only a few hundred points!! The challenger shows off her overpowered ouroboros card with 300 attack and 300 damage. Grimora tries to hold in her laugh but burst into laughter. Grimora: "How absolutely brutal! I almost wish i could've seen his face when he lost!" Challenger: Best part is, I told him i'd forgive his debt if he came and helped us out for a few hours." Grimora: "Well, you little trickster, We'd better get to the "movie" room before P03 has a chance to change his mind."

Panel 1 is labeled "First viewing, Pride and prejudice" Grimora, her 3 ghouls, the trader, The lonely wizard, and the challenger are all sat on boxes in the traders room while P03 sits across from them, playing the movie. (From left to right) Kaycee Ghoul sits shivering, having trouble paying attention The trader leans against a box, watching but impossible to tell if they are actually enjoying the movie or not. Grimora is having a good time engaging with the movie, remarking "Oh to be so young and gaurded. Always something to prove" Royal domiguez is more skeptical. saying "this is what you landlubbers handle things? Stuff like this is why i will always prefer life at sea" the lonely wizards sits behind the challenger. The challenger is letting them fidget with her hair to keep (the lonely wizard) from getting to hyper during the movie. Saywer Pattel watches on calmly. Panel 2 is labeled "second viewing, Pride and prejudice and zombies" Grimora, her 3 ghouls, the trader, The lonely wizard, and the challenger are all sat on boxes in the traders room while P03 sits across from them, playing the movie. (From left to right) Kaycee Ghoul sits shivering, though between the candle by them and the pelts layered ontop of them, it appears efforts have been made to make them feel warmer The trader, seeing a sudden swing of royal dominguez's weapon, draws her own knife and keeps an eye on the situation. Grimora is laughing, both at the movie and royal dominguez's reaction to the fights. Royal domiguez is scolding the movie characters for their sword fighting skills. "You can't fight your foes with a weak stance like that! If you want to protect your friends there you must use your whole body in the swing of your sword." the lonely wizard and the challenger jump back as the sword swings. At the end grimora, the challenger p03 discuss the experiance. Grimora: "well, i think it's safe to say the "movie night" was a success! Should we have another one, we ca…

MORE BRAINROT
This was based on a convo between a friend and i about how Grimora looked like she'd fit in the setting of "Pride and prejudice and zombies"

so of course i had to make a whole movie night comic over it.

....

This was way too much of an idea and i should have stopped myself.

A dramatic recreation of the prospector slamming his pickaxe into one of your cards. most of the man is in shadows but is clearly identifiable by his deranged smile and said pickaxe which is, again, currently being slammed down into one of your cards.

A sketch of grimora from inscryption. She is smiling as she says "En Garde" the words that are written above her head.

Some recent inscryption work.

wanted to draw Grimora cause I just adore her and also decided to play with contrast and perspective when i was working with the prospector.

Can I just say I absolutely love the way you designed the speech bubbles for sign language??? That's actually so clever!!

A "powderless", or pure, clear, and crystalline version of Watermelon tourmaline from land of the lustrous sits in the center of a lotus flower.

Watermelon Tourmaline, Land of the Lustrous

Been wanting to do a "powderless" version of this character for a while because not only do I LOVE tourmalines (With my own OC / Online sona being "Queen Ichigo Rubellite") But I also really just wanted to try my hand at the layered colors of gem!

A goofy-er side of the au

apologies for typos i am very sick.

The player/challenger holds a camera while cowering against a pile made up of the dead bodies of other challengers. she Is gripping Leshy's camera like her life depends on it with an expression of horror as she comes to realize that she just killed a man AND almost died herself. on her wrist are intense bruises from leshy trying to pull her arms off the camera The great scrybe Leshy all the meanwhile lays dead in front of her.

A comic depicting the basis / inciting incedent to the New game plus AU. Leshy lays on the ground dead, his soul captured by the camera that captured so many souls before his. Unseen narrator (UN): "through great grit and determination, another player had bested the scrybe of beasts." The player is seen standing, no longer having a use for it, she lets the scrybes camera fall to the floor. The focus changes to the New game card, shining against the wall of the cabin. Even now it is somewhat apparent that something is wrong with this card as it is seen actively glitching. Unseen narrator: "Surely the relief they felt must have felt overwhelming. After all, with the great scrybe beaten, all that was left to claim their reward" In a sequence of panels, the player is seen reaching for the card, after touching it however, the card turns dark and corrupted, and though she trys to draw back by the third panel it can already be seen to be corrupting the player. Unseen Narrator: "Most assumed that their reward for surviving was escape, But i had a much grander reward for them in mind, for what better reward for those so devoted to my litttle game... .... then to make them a part of it" The comic goes black for a moment before we are shown the players eyes wide open, corrupted in a way that almost looks bloodshot. The red corruption coming from the old_data between them. the player is seen bent over in agony as the old_data from above is seen reaching it's power into her. what is presumed to be her soul is all that is left standing against the old data and still remains fighting against it. Unseen narrator: "The first trial was over, it was time for a new game to begin."

The player / challenger is seen standing in a crowd of people. Dialouge at the top and bottom explains to the player "whether you failed or survived the first challenge was irrelevant. Your souls were his the second you accepted the challenge." with this context it becomes clear that the people around the central player / challenger are other challengers who also fell prey to the same deception she did. its left up to interpretation, but is suggested that those who are greyed out died to the first challenge while those who still have color survived, only to be trapped forever.

Inscryption: New Game Plus+ AU
Enjoy the brainrot that I've been distracting myself with while i try and suffer my way through a cold

(if your wondering why leshy's body is still there when it's not in game, its cause everyone else leaves a body when they get their photo taken, idk why he wouldn't)

Behold! The (way belated) results of My Pokémon art study!!

This was done for me and my closest besties, all of theirs were done by Christmas but I got burned out and didn't finish my own until just a few days ago XD.

A scene based on the game Spirit City Lofi Sessions Player character is seen in the process of making pancakes for all her spirit friends. 3 have been fully served, with stacks of 3 pancakes + 1 pancake art each, the vootodoo's meal is in the process of being made while the trashnuki is patiently waiting its turn. from right to left: lenny, goopii, bobapoles, trashnuki, vootodoo, Avatar

My Entry for the Spirit city lofi's Draw this in your style challenge, Ichigo and her friends having a midnight breakfast!

I'm really happy with the result but best of luck to everyone!!

Some of the Final exercises I did once I was satisfied with the result of my study

poses from the Non-Anime Reference photo section from
@adorkastock.com's Deviantart page.

Cant say enough how grateful there was such a huge resource to use when trying to translate human form into the anime style

The Girls Notes: -Moreso than the standard anime style, (try to) see torsos as simplified ball jointed dolls. - On fatter forms: Bust makes up majority of the rib section, creating more circular forms. - Focus on flow and simplified designs more so than 100% Accuracy. -5-6 Heads tall. On the right side: Melony, Katy, Palina, Iridia, Nessa. They have been broken down to basic shapes and proportions. On the left: 4 rows of faces looking around at different angles. The bottom most row has been broken down into what planes build the facial structure of this style.

The Guys Notes: -Legs Vs. Torso proportions seem to vary more than the girls?? - Base torso shape can best be described as "Slightly compressed rectangles." - Shape over accuracy unless character is highly muscular. -5-6 Heads tall. On the right side: Team skull Grunt, Gaeric, Professor Laventon, Blue (Gary Oak) , Player character (pokemon Scarlet violet). They have been broken down to basic shapes and proportions. On the left: 4 rows of faces looking around at different angles. The bottom most row has been broken down into what planes build the facial structure of this style.

A Pokémon Art study:

Wasn't Feeling particularly inspired to draw a whole finished illustration so I settled on a doing a bunch of sketches and as one thing led to another, it became a whole study.
Suprisingly: It actually did refresh and inspire me cause now I wanna test this new skill some more!

Zelda Stands to the left in the image in an ensemble similar to both that and Ganondorfs demon form in TOTK yet in a style that evokes a sacred light inspired by Hylia. The light that surrounds her is pure and golden Her hands and chest have become marked with magic in much more rounded and flowing than the jagged edges of her cursed form. The background is light and uplifting, illuminated by the sacred light of the triforce.

Zelda: Light Restored

A version of TOTK Zelda. After the final battle with dragon form Ganondorf and an injured Dragon Zelda and Link plummet, the sages reveal to Zelda that the way to return from her dragon form and become whole again is to forgive herself and let go of her grief and regret.

Didn't get to add my little creative writing bit here due to limits on text length, but trust me on tumblr I went crazy a bit and wrote a short little excerpt to give people and idea of what I was thinking for the AU

Yeah it's a little cringe but I had fun. Theres a reason I'm not a writer XDD

Zelda Stands to the left in the image in an ensemble similar to both that and Ganondorfs demon form in TOTK. It glows with a purple blue light with bits of Zelda's golden light still poking through. In her left hand is Sonia's Necklace. Her hands and chest have become marked with magic in the same way Ganondorf's did in his demon form. The background is dark and ominous swirling with purple and magenta light.

Zelda: Light Enraged

A version of TOTK Zelda where Zelda; upon losing Sonia, snaps, temporarily forsaking her guiding principles of kindness and wisdom in a blind attempt to take out the man who keeps taking away everything she loves.

Totk Zelda Floats in the back: Enraged and partially corrupted. The horns on her forehead and her eyes both resemble that of her dragon form Botw Zelda stands in the forefront; holding her hat in her hands nervously and due to her being unsure of her status as a witch. Zelda's clothing, though inspired by her clothing from the game, has taken on a bit of a witchy aesthetic

A little mix of Legend of Zelda and Halloween / spooky month vibes

Enjoy Witch Style, Princess Zelda!!! (Botw/Totk ver)

Zelda Stands ready to attack / cast. Pointing her Tri rod forward, light beaming from it's tip. Zelda's clothing, though inspired by her clothing from the game, has taken on a bit of a casual + witchy aesthetic 8 little echoes dance around zelda as tri sits cozy in her scarf/cloak

A little mix of Legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom and Halloween / spooky month vibes

Enjoy Witch Style, Princess Zelda!!! (Echoes of Wisdom ver)

Your thinking about my upcoming witch Zelda piece ;3

Actually the background was originally going to be MUCH more complicated. Gonna have a whole lunarians army rendered.

It was too distracting from dia and bort so I simplified it

An artistic Rendition of the scene of Dia fighting Bort from land of the lustrous. The battle has been interpreted in a more dramatic and dance-like matter, Dia's pose in particular being inspired by the Arabesque Ballet pose. The moon lights Dia's back and the Lunarian sun spot looms behind her. She wears a smile on her face despite being split by Bort's rope as Bort's final act as she falls to the ground shattered.

One Last Dance

Land Of the Lustrous Fanart Ft. Bort and Dia

Hatsune miku is floating/jumping against a blue-black background amongst a bunch of floating musical notes. Her hair is made of aquamarine and her dress not only has motifs of piano keys, but also aquamarine clusters on her skirt and shoulders.

Tonal Treasure; Mikumarine!!!

A mix of Magical girl, Aquamarine, and music Miku-marine is ready to save the world with the power of her songs!!

Thank you!!!!♥️
she's one of my favorites to render! (both for her beautiful color and the fact that leaving her gemmy is 100% in line with canon)

Cairngorm sits in a state of peaceful rest with the nightsky behind her, decorated only by the faint glow of starlight and a single comet. The Dress she wears is a two piece made of extravagant, sparkly tulle with gold accents. Above her head is a halo like crown that includes a thin tulle viel draping behind her almost like hair. The image plays with the high contrast and harmony between the black of the sky and her skin vs the white of her hair and her gown.

Cairngorm, Land of the Lustrous

Another piece based off of cairngorm, I CANNOT get enough of drawing her simply because of her beautiful gemmy self and great potential for high contrast compositions.

(also why I like posting Dia and bort without their powder. Just so shiny.)

26 Characters Stand in a black marble ballroom. each in their own visually distinct and magnificent outfits designed just for them. In the front is Phos in a lacey multi-layer dress with accessories of gold, lapis, pearl, and tassles colored to look like agate. Antarcticite in snow colored gown with snowflake embroidery Stands behild them but still holding their hand. Sphene in a multi-colored tulle gown talks to Peridot who wheres a dress of paper fans, both appear to talking to each other. Padparadscha in a stylish mix of a suit and a dress talks to rutile in a classy but professional looking ensemble. Yellow is listening but does not seem as invested in dressing up for the occasion. Euclase in a greco inspired gown talks to Jade wearing green 2 peice dress. in The background, left to right. Amethyst 84 and 33 / Obsidian / Lapis and ghost / Red Beryl / Cinnabar / Neptunite and Benitoite / Dia and Bort

A Lustrous Gala

My own little "Thanks for everything" to Land of the Lustrous, envisioned as a season wrap party / gala.

I May be late to this party but a serious thank you to land of the lustrous for being such an incredible story and experience.
