rn I'm lowkey brainrot free but Endres is my forever blorbo no questions asked (rn I'm thinking about other characters from his story frequently too tho haha)
Endres laying in the snow eyes closed, his winter coat half-undone and his right hand holding a glove, with red camellia flowers surrounding him. His head is surrounded by a golden glow akin to a halo in Renaissance paintings. character sheet of Endres Taiyong with a fullbody illustration of him in his courtly everyday outfit at age 24 with a half-up half-down hairdo and four other hairdos he wears/wore at some point (a high ponytail at age 15, a ponytail twist at age 19, and a french braid and a braided knot as an adult). the sheet also shows swatches of his skin, hair, and eye colour as well as more info: "pronouns: he/him, gender: male, sexuality: bisexual, height: 183cm birthday: 30th September, zodiac: Libra | water goat, voice claim: Hu Xia"

it's Endres' birthday so I wanted to draw him quite self-indulgently.

Discord wanted to see him in commoner clothes so here is a sketchy drawing of him as a teen when he lived in Jeonwon-Do.

a little bit of #worldbuilding today bc I'm finally quite satisfied with the map I have for basically all things happening in #HeirsToTheCrown, the comic I'm writing atm!
almost all of the plot happens in Yashida but it's still fun to dig into the different other cultures & have dignitaries etc
A political map of parts of a fantasy world. The central continent is almost island shaped and the southern continent borders the bottom of the map and is only partially visible. The central continent is connected to a northern continent via a landbridge but the northern continent is barely on the map.
