lil artfight ref for joyce
mind over matter principle.
hai :3 back with more faceless drawings of dina's tattoos and this time i actually share my thoughts on them woohoo!!
When designing them I wanted to go for a much more industrial, black-out look for them as opposed to something more detailed and intricate. They’re hard and heavy and in your face. They serve a purpose and are not meant to look pleasing or inspire anything but wariness. Imo the same way you don’t stop to marvel at the way a road sign is designed, regene tattoos have one purpose and that’s to inform you what you’re looking at is something to be wary of... Didn't stop me from making them look cool, but I imagine since they're standardized depending on the kind of regene that they are pretty to-the-point and featureless beyond bits necessary for identification.
It’s release day for Heavenly Tyrant, the sequel to Iron Widow, by Xiran Jay Zhao! I'm still proud of this one a few years later, if you haven’t yet it’s definitely worth finding a physical copy to see the full wraparound. I also have prints available in my print shop!
Many thanks again to AD Terri Nimmo for working with me on this one!
i finished retribution :-)
if, like me, you had to manually import your rebirth stats to retribution, you may already be aware that failure to set your curse of choice results in sidestep swearing with “Oh no!” but if, like me, you get swept up in the story and don’t notice any awkwardness of dialogue til far too late, you might get completely blindsided by this and end up pissing your pants
filled up my reading notebook so until i get another one. microblogging
