sketchy, lined artworks with a watercolor-looking finish of caleb widogast and essek thelyss. the upper one depicts Caleb kissing Essek's forehead in the infamous boat scene of episode 97. The one at the bottom depicts a scene much later in time, of Essek kissing a elderly Caleb, with white hair braided with colorful flowers, on his forehead - presumibly on his deathbed.

sketchy, lined artworks with a watercolor-looking finish of caleb widogast and essek thelyss. The one at the top depicts Caleb kissing Essek on the cheek, as he does in episode 141. In the one at the bottom, Essek cradles Caleb's hand in his and his kissing the back of it, while Caleb looks at him intensely.

🗡Barbarian Yussa, Great Conqueror of the Folding Halls of Halas🗡

The M9 main cast is done, so it's time for some NPCs!
#WhatIfNein is a series in which I redesign the Mighty Nein & Co as different classes. For more like this, check out the post below! #criticalrolefanart

Redesign of Yussa Errenis from Critical Role's the Mighty Nein campaign, as an Barbarian.
He is wearing a quite revealing outfit in black and golds. His chest is bare, showing top surgery scars decorated with gold leaf detailing. He has intricate, decorative gold pauldrons, bracers and similarly intricate gold belt at his waist, from which hangs a tabard, split on each side, to show strong legs. He wears a long cape, of shining gold and black fabric. He's wearing gold sandals and has his hands crossed on the hilt of an elegant longsword.

finally finished my mermay shadowgast picture, which took a while and was all sorts of fun to work on 💜🧡

initially inspired by a vintage photograph (in the replies!); i took one look at it and thought yep this one needs to be turned into shadowgast merfolk

#shadowgast #CriticalRoleFanArt #MerMay

digital fan art of Essek Thelyss and Caleb Widogast from Critical Role, depicted in alternative universe designs as merfolk.

they're lounging on a rocky shore in the light of the golden hour, the still blue sky reflected on the layered surface of flat limestone, with just a bit of the sea and pink horizon visible in the background.

Caleb is light-skinned and is depicted with a long brownish tail, which has short spiky fins edged with brigher orange. it's lighter in the front and darker in the back, with wavy stripes reminiscent of mackerel. similar stripes, but fainter, are running up his arms and back. he has very long dark auburn hair in a braid, with a few light pearls decorating it, and a full beard; both his head hair and facial hair are tinged slightly green, as if growing algae. there are reddish gills on the sides of his ribcage, and he's carrying a pouch strapped tightly around his shoulders.

Essek has light lavender skin and short curly hair; his iridescent white tail is inspired by the spiny fins of the lionfish, the soft ends of them cascading down in the air. he has gills in his sides as well, and his pointed ears, forearms and hands are tinged a darker purple color. he is wearing a white decorative mantle that is hugging his neck and flaring out over his shoulders, its lace-like design similar to the geometric shapes of the venus's flower basket. around his hips, there is a double strand of silver oyster shells.

Caleb is sitting down, his tail stretching out in front of him, while Essek is lying on his side next to Caleb, propping himself up on one elbow. Caleb is holding one of his hands in front of his face, and Essek is reaching up to lay a gentle hand on Caleb's forearm, kissing the back of Caleb's hand. they are both smiling softly, with their eyes locked and half-closed.

Stay safe, protect your neighbors

They’re being disappeared

On the news just now, I heard a young man tell of how he and his girlfriend were at Home Depot this morning when ICE came. They ripped her out of his arms. He yelled out that she is American born. But that wasn't why they grabbed her. The boyfriend said that when they came for her, they said "get the one with the phone." She had been recording them.
Our sheriff deputies and police officers, (and soon OUR National Guard) are protecting and serving a group of kidnappers as if our constitution doesn't exist. These people are being disappeared. I can't imagine my loved one being ripped out of my arms like that, knowing I may never see them again. I can't wrap my head around this. I can't believe our leaders are so impotent and gutless. I can't believe we are the ones who have to lay OUR bodies on the line and not the men and women who train to fight in our name. I can't stop thinking about that young woman and how scared she must be right now - and everyone else in detention and their families. Our coward leaders did this to them and they're leaving it up to us to keep fighting. Fuck this timeline.

They don’t show up like this for school shootings.

People ask how the public knows ICE is there? This is how. Nothing covert about it. They do it this way to make sure the entire world knows they’re coming. A full display of terror on our streets. To instill fear in America.

I know there was a lot going on in American politics today, but I wanted to take a moment to highlight how much I admire the work that Greta Thunberg and the Freedom Flotilla are doing.

They're sailing an aid ship across the Mediterranean to Gaza right now, despite lacking Israeli permission.

I don't have the Chronicles of Exandria book to check, but these here might have ended up in it? 😃 Some people might recognize these fanarts from back in the day, but I actually revised them a liiittle when I was contacted for the book :> I hope people liked them! <3

Was really touched to win Journalist of the Year at the Scope Awards last night.

I used my remote acceptance speech to call for “accurate and dignified” coverage of the upcoming disability cuts. Also pledged to get “PIP is not an out of work benefit” tattooed on my face.
