I call this one

Fire Starter.

This is Dainix from @comicaurora. Not a whole lot of symbolism to say for this piece. I just wanted to draw my favorite fire boi <3

As for technical things, I used 6B Pencil from Procreate for the ink (I’ve been using it so much since I discovered it; WHY WHERE YOU ALL HIDING THIS FROM ME?) and a custom coloring brush I made. I used a whole bunch of chromatic aberration and red/blue rendering bc it looks amazing, but the hardest part was trying to render the fire in Dainix’s cruicible form. This was mostly a practice for an upcoming project of mine, but it went out of my control and ended up as a fully rendered piece.

i just. i just think he's neat

erin/the void dragon is from @comicaurora

The chekhov's gun has begun to unload.

Characters with communication barriers who care about each other anyways have my heart

You know what’s an underrated trope? Language barriers. The frustration of not being able to communicate. The determination to figure it out anyway. The love and dedication to learn. The secret languages and charades made along the way. The “wait what” sillies when learning what a word or phrase actually means as opposed to what a character thought it meant.

Language barriers.

‘Not even on his worst day.’ Ok rip my heart out why don’t you
