I had a recent rush of inspiration to start painting portraits of characters from one of my all time favorite series. I started with the Shol'Va, Teal'c!
Do you have a suggestion for another Star Gate character you'd like me to paint? Share!
If you have another series in mind, share too!
My screen brightness was down so I did NOT realise this was a painting at first. This is beautiful—I am obsessed with all the brush strokes, they are just so perfectly textured, and stars what a specimen you chose. xD
Teal’c is my favourite Stargate character after Sam Carter, my beloved for ever and ever and ever and ever. So thank you for sharing this!!! :) <3
"Let me see if I can make you understand, okay? These results don't just say the ZPM won't work. They say this reality isn't governed by any natural laws. It's like looking through a microscope at a cell culture and seeing a thousand dancing hamsters! It’s impossible.""Rodney, you need to calm down.""No, no, what I need to do now is get very agitated, because what I'm realizing is all of this is a lie. This…and this…and this!"
I redid this piece a solid 3 times with completely different ideas. It was hard to get the scale of colossal in a way I was happy with. I ended up with this piece centered on the Stargate 1994 film. Stargate is one of my favorite, if not my absolute favorite, movies. I find a lot of inspiration from sci-fi movies and this one is no exception. Stargate gets a bonus for using mythology in a way that is not unique but entertaining and a much-needed departure from ancient aliens while keeping the aliens ancient. For this piece, Ra’s pyramid is the main focus. I tried to make it look big with perspective so it would fit within the Stargate frame. Jack, Daniel, and Sha’uri are at the bottom though you can’t really tell who they are.
Okay, listen. Do you enjoy The Mummy (1999)? Are you fans of Rick, Evy, and Ardeth Bay? Then you need to read this because it's everything your soul needs, courtesy of @mirabilefuturum.
“I just got up too fast” for teen!sam please if you so desire?
Canon just gave me the perfect angsty opportunity for Sam to open up to the team about her history and her ED... and I've already established grief is a trigger for those habits... so have some adult Sam reaching out to her support system when she starts to relapse :))) TW for discussion of eating disorders and ED recovery, and some comments on body image.

"Sam!"
"Woah, Carter!"
Despite the fact that she'd intended to get off the floor, when Sam blinks the spots out of her vision she's still seated amongst the insurmountable stacks of books, journals, and paraphernalia they'd all been trying to clear out of Daniel's office. In fact, the way she's sprawled over the floor, articles and folders underneath her, suggests her descent had been less than controlled. As does the fact that Janet and Jack are both standing over her, looking concerned.
"Major Carter." Teal'c tilts his head, looking down from his seat at Daniel's desk. "Are you not well?"
She groans, shaking her foggy head. "I'm fine, guys. I just got up too fast."
Janet gives her a hand this time, and Sam lets her hold onto her arm until she's sure she's steady on her feet. "Want me to check you out?"
She smirks. "If you thought that was necessary, I'd be in the infirmary by now."
"Maybe we just need a break," Jack suggests. "This is... hard work." A frown pulls at his lips. Sam takes a shaky breath.
Slowly, Janet lets go of Sam and straightens her skirt, rumpled from sitting on the floor and then, presumably, diving when Sam had fainted. "That's not a bad idea. Sam, if you're sure you don't need anything..."
Sam nods habitually, because the empty numbness she's felt since Daniel's death is preferable to the pain of digging into the materials of his life. As soon as she processes that thought, though, she pinches her arm, hard, and calls out to the others. "Actually--"
