Your art is phenominal jfbfhfjkd
Thank you so much!! ;o; ❤❤
Wow apparently I havent been following you for months bc tumblr unfollowed me back when it had that unfollow glitch and I'm so busy with work I didnt notice. Cool cool cool tumblr.
JSDFH IT’S OK tumblr is silly like that ;u; thank you for following me back!!
Are you changing to viera? If you are, how old will you be? Will you write out your new history?
I’ve been considering it but ultimately I.... don’t think I’ll change my duskwight boy over, I love him too much as is to change him around and his lore and everything QvQ but it’s super fun to at least draw him as one!! maybe on a different shard/au he’s a viera hjsjhdf
Currently he’s 29 in canon, so his age won’t change regardless! I’ll prolly make a lady viera when they come out since.... males don’t exist yet....
Hey just an FYI your art got posted uncredited in the official FFXIV forums for Male Viera as a playable character! show your support on page 242
thank you for letting me know!!! I made a reply in the thread about it and sourced the credit back to my handles!
I love love /love/ that everyone is supporting male bunnies in that thread but.... oh goodness the amount of artwork going unsourced.... orz;;; it pains me.......
i saw the hoods tutorial you drew and was like, hmm, why do I recognize that name... WAIT THAT'S RUNESCRATCH OF THE DARKPATH AU!! hi!!!
hahaha hello!!
I’m glad that’s still making rounds! It kinda surprises me that so many people have found it useful, but I’m super glad and hope it’s managed to teach everyone a thing or two!
I should do some more tutorials when I have time....... but time is, uh..... a big factor
Hey there my names Andrew I saw a picture ages on the FFXIV page that I think you did. The Aymeric one back to us looking up at the sky+dragons! I loved it and so I thought I’d ask if I could buy a print, if that’s a thing you do? If not, no worries, and happy hunting.
Hello! Yes, I’m the one that did that pic!! It’s still one of my favorites :’> It’s funny you ask about a shop because I have plans of setting one up and selling prints hopefully by next year if I can! I’ll be sure to put a link to the shop once I get it going!!
I really like your big hero 6 darkpath au and I wondered if you were still working on it.
Hello!!
Since I still get these asks more or less.... weekly (wow guys I’m really glad you like that au so much! really! thank you!) This is more or less the last time I’m going to say or mention this:
Darkpath AU has been discontinued for.... a year or so now. I’m no longer working on it. Not for the time being, and I have no plans of reviving it right now due to current workload, juggling multiple jobs, stress, and trying to get my life in order. I have no time for it right now. At all.
I know that’s a bit disheartening, and I had a lot of plans for it, but I essentially bit off more than I could chew. That was my fault - and I shouldn’t have begun the comic in the first place without fully realizing that I wouldn’t have the time for it. I found out the hard way; my workload got heavier, and I was forced to discontinue it for a multitude of reasons that I’d rather not disclose.
I fully welcome anyone that wishes to still do things for it, pick up where I left off on their own takes of it, etc. - so long as I’m credited for the idea and designs.
I’m sorry, and I know that disappoints a lot of you that enjoyed the AU and were hoping for further updates, but I really hope you enjoy my art enough to stick with me even if I won’t be continuing the comic! ; ;
Man... I joined tumblr back in 2014 because of your Talon blog, and I loved what you did then-- but like looking at your stuff now you've come SO FAR. God, your art is hella beautiful Rune. I hope you are having a wonderful day because you are a wonderful person and you deserve to have wonderful days.
SHDFH anon this was so sweet gahhh thank you so much ; ; this couldn’t have been better timed honestly, I needed a little pick me up!! Thanks for sticking with me for so long! ;v; I hope you have many wonderful days too!!
Do you sell prints? I would love one of the last Estinien/Aymeric one!
Actually I have plans to put up some prints for sale here very soon!! I’ll keep posted here on my blog when I have a site available for them :’D Thanks for asking!
what ffxiv server do you play on?
Coeurl! You can find me there as Aristide Gauvain, Roylan Safai, or Ser Aymeric :>
YAY! I'm SO HAPPY YOUR BACK *hugs you* I hope everything is going okay for you and I can't wait to see some more of your amazing drawings as well as ideas for BH6. 😊❤️💕
Hahah well i’ll have plenty more drawings coming mostly after the holidays and stuff are over! As well, i’m kinda hoping the BH6 tv show that gets put out was it... next year...? may revive my need to draw more of it >>
ur alive
I’M ALIVE
b-barely
now it’s just cleaning up around here and dusting stuff off, trying to find a new theme and a bunch of other fun stuff heh, BUT HEY HOW’S IT GOING sorry for my absence
life’s been super nuts since I got a new job and it’s left me pretty exhausted, plus some personal related issues had me pretty down and unable to work properly, but i’m gettin back at it. hope everyone’s been doin as good as possible, i’m gonna try to draw as much as I can now that things are going a bit better for me
Hi! I was wondering: have you ever heavily referenced/traced for any of the art that you posted before as part of your learning process? Because I'm a beginning artist and I've been struggling really hard with drawing my own art without some form of copying and I have been feeling really guilty about it. So I was hoping you could give me some advice since your art looks really natural!
Actually back when I was a younger artist, I used to trace all the time! And I still use references, those are something you kinda never grow out of, heheheh.
I think it’s perfectly okay to trace so long as you don’t claim it as your own. It’s kinda a mixed thing, some artists believe it’s not a good idea, others do - it goes back and forth. But I’m one of the ones that tell you that it’s okay to do!
It’s especially fine for the learning process, because you’ll be able to learn things from it, learn lines, etc. As long as you can take something away from it, it’s worth it - but don’t get used to tracing all the time! Make sure you draw freeform too and don’t trace things, it’s sometimes better to eyeball something and then put it on paper that way instead.
I actually do also heavily reference poses for my art sometimes, but I change around some of the limbs to make it more like something I wanted it to be. And that’s totally okay! Don’t be afraid to reference- even artists who have been in the field for years still use references and learn from them!
I hope this helped a little. Let me know if you have any other questions, i’m here to help!
What it your favorite thing to draw? Wether it is people, a specific person, nature, animals, etc I'm curious and would like to know. BTW you are an amazing artist and I'm a huge fan of your art!
Honestly that’s kinda a tough one, but I’d have to say long hair is one of my faves, or flowing clothing heheh
It’s just super fun to draw, especially when there’s a breeze or wind blowing it, because it reminds me of waves almost? Really relaxing to look at and to draw, coloring is another story though
