Oh this video is awesome! He doesn't just explain problems. He provides doable solutions for individual protection that directly contribute to a larger collective/community. And I learned something about anarchism!

Hello everyone. I'm a #digitalartist and I love making #folklore inspired #art and #originalcharacters

Currently working on a #fantasy #worldbuilding project for my story about a #pirate crew of #monsters called We Never Plunder Silver

#portfolio #digitalillustration #darkart #horror
THE DELICATE FILIGREE PETALS OF THE AMBER ROT EXTENDED FROM ITS CRADLE. CURLING AROUND ITS OFFERING. A HARD SPHERE OF BONE AND FLESH FOR THE BRIGHTLY COLORED SPHACELUS MATERIAL TO GROW FROM. YELLOW TENDRILS WRAPPED OVER THE SKULL. CONSTANTLY AND CONTINUOUSLY CONSTRICTING AND CRUSHING INWARD TO BREAK THE MEAL DOWN. THE FIRST LAYER OF PETALS COMPLETELY ENVELOPED THE NEW. CRYSTALLIZED CORE. A RAPID AND REPEATING CYCLE OF NEW SOFT BLADES SPROUTING FROM THE CORE WITH A DESIRE TO SPREAD OUTWARD AND LAY CLAIM TO NEW TERRITORY. AS THE GOLDEN ARMS STRETCHED AND MET AN OBSTACLE IT SIMPLY WOULD GO OVER IT. ONLY THE BARRICADE WAS TALL SO THE PETALS CONTINUED UP AND UP AND UP UNTIL THEY REACHED THEIR LIMIT OF STRENGTH WHERE THEIR MASS AND GRAVITY OUT PERFORMED THEIR ABILITY TO EXTEND. THE SOFT HONEY COLORED TENTACLES CURVED AND CURLED DOWN AND INWARD TOWARDS THE MAIN BODY. THE PROCESS BEING EXPEDITED BY THE FORMING OF NEWER LAYERS OF PETALS FROM BENEATH TRYING TO FIND THE SAME PURCHASE AS THE PREVIOUS GENERATIONS. OVER AND OVER THE AMBER ROT RELEASED ITS CURIOUS COROLLA BUT COULD DO NOTHING BUT TURN ON ITSELF. THE ORIGINAL PETALS MEETING THE CORE BEGAN THEIR OWN CALCIFICATION. IN A MATTER OF HOURS THE AMBER ROT WAS A HARDENED, BRITTLE BALL OF TRANSPARENT YELLOW LAYERS. THE VISAGE OF AN EXPLODED SKULL IN THE CENTER. NOW PERFECTLY HARMLESS AND READY FOR HANDLING. Happy holidays to @cafedot discord server. I decided to participate in their Secret Macha art gifting event and had the opportunity to make art of Woolia for @viperiumprime I highly recommend checking out their work on their profiles: https://asabovesobelowstory.carrd.co/ FROMSOFTWARE's "The Duskbloods" commission for Souls content creator @saintriot Lady Blasphemous, out of her cage. The semi corporeal paramore to the Vampire King. She cannot speak on her own and must possess a living (optional) host in order to participate in conversation, one on one dialogue is extremely awkward. Her relationship to the Psychic Vampire is both symbiotic and codependent with how much she relishes the extreme emotions he feeds off of and feels. The Vampire Queen gives it a few hundred years, at most.
