In my book series, Nihilian Effect, the goddess portrays herself as mysterious & elegant, but has a quick temper that she constantly struggles to hide, & at her core she is shallow & unimaginative. These aspects are represented in the layers of her sword.

After 20 years of sitting unfinished, I have finally completed the sword of the goddess Lianandra from my book series, Nihilian Effect.
Let me know what you think! Can you draw any conclusions about the goddess from the design choices?

Meta, after your bot autobanned me from Threads for no reason, this is just cruel to show on my Instagram profile ...

Testing shading and highlighting for the first time in about 20 years with the wrap on the handle of my goddess sword drawing.
Not sure if this is the style I want to go for, though, as it looks a bit cartoony, but it was easy to use for practice.

It seems when I adjusted my username a few days ago, it alerted the system that it was a fake name? Because my account was suspended for being fake/impersonating someone. Ridiculous if you HAVE to use your full name on your account, or else ...
Careful out there using a pseudonym, I guess 😕

Big question time, friends! My wife doesn't like the current design of the guard of my sword drawing. It represents the goddess's 2nd set of wings, but doesn't need to LOOK like wings, just curled feathers of a sort.
So, opinion: Current vs New vs Half'n'half? Or other idea?

Well, since my Threads account was suspended, I will start sharing my drawing here instead.
Here is a glimpse of the line art for my goddess sword drawing. I had hoped to finish it entirely by today, but alas, life, work, indecision, etc. got in the way.

Hope, the 1st moon base after a series of failures. It may be the one thing deterring world war.

The gods of Nihilian Effect are worshiped to some extent, but all are treated like celebrities. It's difficult for them to go anywhere without causing a crowd. Each god reacts differently, some try to help, some get annoyed, & some abuse the attention. #Booksky #fantasy

Something a bit more science fantasy from a WIP several releases away. I am very excited for this murder #mystery story about long-time magic users being flatlined for their bones.

Idk if you could consider Namubari (a massive 3-eyed black wolf with a mane made of tentacle that can speak telepathically & was created as part of a series of deadly gloom-beasts) counts as a "pet", but he's Daggis's right hand & trusted friend in NAMING THE BANE. #Booksky #fantasy

I've always been intimidated by mystery. Not only do you need to set up the usual plot, but you need to throw in red herrings, & make it all witty & clever, & then keep track of it all.
Also, honestly, cyberpunk, because it's hard to make the world feel alive without over describing it

#SFFChat 1: Are we talking personal or physical?
In Naming the Bane, Daggis's personal strength is that he will sacrifice everything he has for his family & friends, sometimes even his meals.
His physical strength is that he can use shadows like doorways, & he's a vampire 🧛

It looks similar to one of these, but with another horizontal like in the middle. I can't tell more than that via this pic.

Time to tackle this chaos that has been building for over 10 years. I want to include a decent map in my post-apoc pirate #scifi #fantasy novel, so I need to finally hammer down some of these details.
Currently it reminds me of a football play, lol.

My biggest problem with #drawing isn't the act itself (that will need work, obviously), but brush settings. Already today I've spent 3hrs trying to get strokes to look good, & it still isn't perfect. It's fine with fast strokes, but slower causes stepping I can't seem to solve, even with plugins 😔
