"And eventually, he no longer needed to drink to stifle the guilt."

rereading AoA before the comics come out to relive all the tragedy (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ but!!! I will try to draw a happy Jace next to compensate 💙
#mtgfanart #jacebeleren #agentsofartifice
A sketchy drawing in black and white of Jace Belerenin 3/4 profile. He looks sad, guilty and tired with bags under his eyes and a furrowed brow. He is wearing is signature outfit with his cloak, hood down.

Some edits of my #guildwars2 characters I did over the years! I always start this with the intent to do it for all of them and inevitably I give up (because I got 50) 😆
Asvata, a Guild Wars 2 Sylvari necromancer character with yellow skin, slanted, elvish green eyes and lilac and pink hair. She has fairy-like iridescent, colorful wings. Her armor is made out of plants and also very colorful. A collar of leaves is resting on her shoulders and clasped at the throat with a blue orchid. Clarente, a Guild Wars 2 Norn warrior character. She is a woman who has warm toned, light skin and red hair. At eye height, across her full face, is a white tattoo. She is wearing plate armor that is adorned with golden filigrees. Thimariel, a Guild Wars 2 human mesmer character. He has kinda pasty pale skin and dusty brown hair. He wears very ornamental light armor and has a crown on his head. The armor tones are primarily puple but with many metal filigree accents with ornate swirls in silver. On his back is also an ornament with a purple glowing gem in the middle. Luusie, a Guild Wars 2 human elementalist character. She is a young woman who has warm toned brown skin with freckles, and dark brown, tightly curled hair, as well as dark brown eyes. Her armor is super colorful, with a bright yellow scarf, blue undershirt, green vest and belt and a yellow-red patterned skirt. Her belt has many pockets and little bags for all her wizardry needs.

BUG!
A cartoony drawing on grainy paper of a chibi stag beetle wearing a party hat. The outline of the bug is done in black sharpie, the beetle is facing left. He is light brown colored and the party hat has a yellow pompom and orange-green stripes.

After like 100 hours or something I think maybe it is done?? Idk, I can't tell anymore 😅😶‍🌫️
I present to you my soon to be new playmat!! An attempt to represent Vraska the Unseen + JTMS (and a bit of artistic freedom) in the Strixhaven Mystical Archives style 💙🖤💚

#jacebeleren #vraska #mtg
An artwork of Vraska and Jace Beleren from MTG. The overall piece is made up of vector shapes that are filled in with textured overlays and then outlined again. They are on a somewhat abstract background of dark teal and brown, with the teals on Vraska's side and the browns on Jace's side. In the middle of the backgroud is a circle, which contains Jace and Vraska from about the thigh up. Vraska is on the left, and standing elegantly, her snake hair wild and free. Her eyes are glowing golden and she is smiling slightly. Her dress is sleek and simple, made of vines and the shoulder and hip are adorned with orange mushrooms. Jace is next to her in his classic Jace the Mind Sculptor pose, hands held wide, with the magical symbols in between. His hood is up and his eyes glow blue. His cape is behind him and also behind Vraska, framing them both. Additional decorations in the form of little "halftone" like circles are added like bit of a halo behind Vraska, and also behind Jace's shoulders so that they align with his silhouette. Finally, to the left of Vraska swirly magical symbols that resemble Jace's cloak pattern are incorporated in the background, and similarly, to Jace's right, organic looking mushroom shapes representing Vraska's golgari heritage are incorporated in the background.

and also Real Jace Hours
I considered going over the flavor text because Lili is being snide🖤😤but I could not get it to work with too much magical swirls, it was too overpowering. I used a few glitter gel pens for the magic, so it is kinda sparkly in real life 😎
#mtgalter
A picture of someone holding an altered MTG card: Unsubstantiate. The borders have been extended to also show the magical effect above the textbox and to the sides. In addition, magical effects have been added to partially cover the rules text box and the bottom right corner, replicating the blue magics already present in the original art. Out of focus, in the background, a stack of other Jace cards lying on the desk is visible.

an older piece of mine but I also wanted to share it here, a galaxy isopod! I originally did it in purple, but I like to do color things digitally so there is now also a blue one :D #isopod #bugsarecool
A drawing of a cartoony isopod. It is seen from the side, facing left and with their antennae out. The body of the isopod appears to be filled with swirly mystical energy, and sparkes are seen around its body. The colors are primarily blue, but with hints of green and pink swirls too.

There are friends everywhere <3 I will miss them in the colder season but look forward to meeting new ones in spring!!! #bugsarecool
A picture of a black lady bug with 4 red spots, two big ones and two smaller ones. It is sitting on a ceramic garden decoration and very shiny. A picture taken while walking, showing a somewhat sandy path with a snail crossing it. The snail is dark brown and quite large, and is about 1/3th of the way there. A young stinkbug sitting on the edge of a wooden bench. It has cute striped antennae and a brown patterned body. A person (it's me!) holding their hand up, with an isopod walking across the palm. In the background, colorful decor is visible.

Slowly chipping away at my new Vraska & Jace playmat!! This is a little piece of it but I hope I can show the finished thing soon 😎 Trying to emulate strihaven mystical archives vibes but a long way to go, just vector shenanigans for now, mosaic piecing together JTMS and Vraska the Unseen arts
A small piece of a vector based "drawing", with flat colors in different shapes, arranged somewhat mosaic like to show the likeness of Vraska on the left, and Jace on the right. It's a small crop so only Vraska's shoulder and a piece of her hair is visible, and only Jace's shoulder and a bit of the right side of his face are visible.

Tiny plump cactuar friend I did for my Kirri deck, the paint is a little thick here and there but I was mostly toying with stuff, so it will hopefully be a little more sleek on the next one! And apparently Posca markers bleed under my tape, hence the leaves on the left, lesson learned! 😱 #mtgalter

He melted😩
A picture of the cape of Jace Beleren, lying in a somewhat messy puddle on the floor, kinda looking like Jace himself has melted into a puddle.

Also finally I can share the tokens I made for the secret token exchange we did with the mana burners guild community!! Was super fun to experiment with paper and cutout stuff.
Four tokens, made with paint marker and cutout paper on an iridescent foil background. They are in a cute and cartoony style. There are snail tokens with the shells being differently patterned papers with hearts, stripes and dots in bright colors. There is also a wicked role token with a mischievous looking rat on a striped background. The tokens are additionally decorated with golden star shaped sequins and a scalloped drawn border.

Latest alter, used a lot of random new media (gel pen is good??) and also an experiment with glow in the dark paint. The camera makes the effect a lot more intense, it's so subtle irl I don't think I will do it again, but it was fun! ✨
#mtg #mtgalters #mtgalter
An alter of the card "Poison the Waters" where the card has been mostly covered with the swirly, iridescent poison, partially covering the rules text box but going over the title as well. The poison ranges from purple to pink, with black outlines and hints of yellow and green. The same card, but photographed in the dark. The light green parts are faintly glowing.

and last week's big g4m3r nerd moment of #guildwars2 because I finally started fishing so I could grind out some achievement points for the next tier 🎣👨‍💻
also new expansion next week yayyy 😎
A screenshot from the game Guild Wars 2, featuring my character Sepp, an elementalist caster. Sepp has light skin, dark brown eyes and medium length straight brown hair. He is wearing cloth armor toned in dark browns and some blues, a scroll of parchment on his back. He is holding a fishing rod and standing on a boat. A screenshot from the achievement popup of Guild Wars 2. It says 47.000 achievement points have been achieved and I get to choose a skin as a reward, plus I get some other standard rewards like some gold, a very small XP boost and another chest with goodies inside.

water isopods from some time ago <3
#isopod
A picture of a drawing of two cartoony blue isopods, facing each other. Around them are slight water surface effects. They are drawn in a water color / aquarel ish style, with the outlines and eyes of the isopods done with blank ink.

🫖✨using the unbeatable medium of MS Paint to render the best belligerent moments
A drawing mostly in pixelated messy style from MS Paint, it has three panels. In the first, Vraska asks: "Do you take sugar, Jace", while holding a teacup in her hand and a teapot in her other, looking back over her shoulder. In the second, Jace says: "Let's find out" with sparkly eyes and an innocent look. In the third, Vraska is looking exasperated, rolling her eyes and tilting her head back.
