#Azemetweek Day 4: Gilded
I'm very much in love with Amaurot's art deco aesthetic, so I changed Azem and Emet-Selch's fits to something more fun✨ I like to imagine Amaurotines host private parties without "black robes only" dress code now and then.

male Azem (l) and Emet-Selch (r) dancing together. Azem is wearing a glittery gold dress and afeather headpice. Emet is dressed in a shirt and tie and a waistcoat. They are laughing together, Emet is leading the dance. The background are geometric gold stars on a flat green. The frame is art deco style.

helpppp I feel evil.

AU where both Marian and Garrett exist as twin (mage) Champions (even tho I acknowledge that Hawke losing their family over the game is important and good writing and there being two Hawkes lessens that impact a little) and now I’m thinking what if they lose each other at the end as well because Anders romance for Garrett and Sebastian for Marian… And either Marian can’t decide between her brother and her lover and goes her own way post game (maybe joining up with Merrill and that’s how Marrill can still happen), or she is the one to stab Anders while Seb and Garrett yell at each other… And maybe he doesn’t die from it, but Marian will still leave with Sebastian at the end and become miserable because she feels like she betrayed her brother, and also does not like how Sebastian ultimately marches against Kirkwall. Now I only need to decide wether Garrett or Marian show up in DAI - if it’s both, then they haven’t contacted each other since DA2, despite missing each other dearly. Marian would willingly stay behind in the Fade until Garrett knocks her off her feet and tells Inky & Varric to take her back out as he is the one to stay behind.

Frick. Merrill was my canon romance for Marian for the past ten years, but playing friendly romance Sebastian for the first time... Can’t believe I’m letting go of best girl for a Chantry boy 🥲 Feels wrong, but for the drama… Yeah.

Nearly done replaying DA2 after years. Still obsessed with default Hawke, the Champion armour, and Varric.

Cropped screenshot from Dragon Age 2, Varric on the left looking up at Garrett Hawke wearing the champion armor. A heart is drawn over Varric's wonderful chest <3

Love this from Guillermo del Toro
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

Does anyone else sometimes obscure the eyes of their references when drawing something very silly or very spicy? It's so stupid, but sometimes I feel like they judge me ꉂ(≧▽≦)

hhhhh legit so happy with these. Took me many redraws to find a brush (setting) that works for me for lineart.
I'm glad I got a good amount of work done despite feeling so down today :)

In a little slump since yesterday :( Had troubles with my artbook, wips progressing slower than planned, family all want something from me, and it’s still so cold.

I never enjoyed cooking by myself, but in the past two months it has become a really nice way to focus and turn my brain off for 1-2 hours each day. I’ve even spent 3 hours making kimchi one afternoon!
It’s nice how quiet my thoughts are during it; no worrying, just the anticipation of good food.

I didn't focus on improving in 2025, but on just drawing what I want, which was a ton of low pressure fun.

2025 continued my Rings of Power phase, then back to my favourite mmo FFXIV, and now I carry Deus Ex (and a ton of wips ꉂ(≧▽≦)) into 2026.

Thank you for all your support🥂♥️

I have so little time for personal art nowadays that it has become precious to me. This year of 2025 I made these two that I adore - Time's End and Sea of Giants, both for a personal project :)
Time's End, an illustration by Eleonor Piteira of a statue of a woman reaching up with light emanating from her hand. On the background there are ruins of a building with plants growing amidst the remnants of a broken stained glass window framing a sky filled with stars. Sea of Giants, an illustration by Eleonor Piteira of a night scene on a desert landscape with giant rocks, some of them sculpted. A giant statue of a woman indirectly points at a moon/planet in the sky. The sky is full of stars and 4 comet-like phenomenon.
