Death First To Vultures And Scavengers

carpenterrrrrrr

i respect jon ware's decision to never make an official fun episode, but that aint me. enjoy that one tiktok trend with the sillies !

transcript (sry abt my handwriting) + my fav frames below !!

carpenter: I'm carpenter and my this is my first drink of the night.

off camera: carpenter? hhow many caprenter?

faulkner: I'm faulkner and this is my first drink of the night

off camera: FAULKNER! how many faulkner?

paige: I'm Paige and my first drink is vodka lemonade.

paige: kidding lol. Hehe imagine though. I don't know how many. We're on bottles now. I'm pretty functional. Just ask my cult.

[her bottle: Silt Russian VODKA]

hayward: I'm James Hayward and this is my first beer of the night

hayward: paaaaaaiiige. paiiiiaaiige...

[paige holds up 4 fingers]

working on a design for a tattoo I want to get sometime soon

we'll never be rid of each other

siltcord was talking about a rane + faulkner anglerfish saint, so i did what i had to do !! are anglerfish riverine? no, but neither is kelp. all waters are one baby

original convo is below, plus some design notes

speedpaint will be linked here

great contributions from @thermodynamic-comedian @lights-at-night-art and @unbloodiedmartyr that all contributed to my design :]

rane is growing into faulkner. faulkner is not growing into rane

rane has lost their face, faulkner's is only a mouth. rane has no identity in faulkner and his only identity is the words he speaks

faulkner is the one holding the lure, but rane is the one holding up his arm. it isn't clear how much say he has in their pose

faulkner's hand is growing into the lure because he can't let go/escape his position

the gossamer fins are intended to emulate angel's wings, the lure a halo

there are no prayer marks on them because i do not want to design parish prayer marks on the fly like this. imagine they were on their faces, chests, and stomachs if you must

theyre nude because ive seen a lot of greco-roman statuary lately and the pose was too nice to cover with robes. genuinely please dont be weird about it T_T

limited palette celebrimbor

Wouldnt it just be truly fucking awful if it was only people out here, and nothing else?

anyways this is like my favourite carpenter monologue of all time it destroys me. so yk i had to draw it. ALSO you can BET i used @catwyk 's incredible parish designs and @valtsv 's leech halo for faulkner. because i gotta steal their smartypants ideas

the world don't revolve around you, so don't you revolve around someone else

i saw a sculpture by rodin called brother and sister and it inspired me :3 speedpaint here, inspo below cut

this is the sculpture !! i saw the name and immediately thought of Them because my brain is full of silt. carpenter's pose, clothing, hair and colouring, is evocative of nana glass in this portrait i did for her

happy sibling rane saturday everyone!
