Painted Miraig fullbody!
Very much in the painting mood recently.
I also want to use this design a lot more often because I never realized how much I really love it.
This is my main Runeterra OC. And I shamelessly ship her with Viktor. No one can stop me. I’m in too deep.
I’m…*invested* in them.
Her name is Miraig. She’s an Ionian-born spirit mage who fled to Piltover as a refugee when she was very young. Obviously, having nothing, her family landed in Zaun instead. She used her magic to become a horticulturalist in the Undercity, but leveraged her creative skills in becoming a Data Visualization Specialist by lending a fetching art nouveau flair to the charts she’d create. Even when this skill curried enough favor topside, she was often treated as a cute novelty and more of a “pet” to those who employed her. Being treated like a person once she landed in the Hextech labs was a refreshing change of pace.
These are her “Arcane” designs. Specifically s1 act 2 & 3 and s2 act 3 epilogue.
Rest assured she has some “League” stuff, even though it’ll probably be reworked alongside Viktor.
I’m gonna miss the old version, not gonna lie. I started headcanoning him as The Shredder, but with extra steps and now he’s being Thanos-snapped.
Oh well. I’ll still be a raging Viktor Apologist so that’s what counts I guess.
Cameo portrait of Seteth from “Fire Emblem: Three Houses”. He’s so precious to me. I chose Peruvian Opal and Easter Lily for him.
Finally actually starting a real art blog here. Wish me luck.
Another painting attempt.
I need them to be happy at least 50% of the time.
Have some “League” Miraig!
The first one is “old” canon now, as she in LoL lore was initially meant to essentially have been an enabler to her partner, Viktor.
And then there’s High Noon Miraig. She’s an ex-coal miner turned magic-wielding undertaker. She joined Viktor in this AU as well, believing that the only peace left to be found in the world was in creating a new end. And so, she developed her magic in a way that allows her to rob her victims of sentience, leaving them in a quiet haze, unaware of their own existence. This is how she deals with the risen dead - and the few who dare cross her. She’s been nicknamed “The Unmaker” because of this magic. She robs souls of the humanity that once defined them.
The designs for two protagonists for my current visual novel project, “Deathbed Dreaming”.
The main character, Kess, and her wife Quinn.
One of my cameo portraits featuring Viktor from “Arcane”.
I really love to include gems and flowers in a symbolic fashion in these.
Foxglove was chosen for Viktor due to its coloring and what it represents: ambition.
A Piltover character this time.
Meet Ibis.
A chemist whose flexible morals and opportunistic nature can make them very dangerous.
While working as an associate with the Hextech Labs, Ibis created quite the amicable connection with mainstay employee Miraig.
During the peak of tension between Piltover and Zaun, Ibis went from struggling entrepreneur to active bioterrorist while attempting to deal with being cornered by parties from both factions.
If I had a nickel for every biblically-adjacent mechanical savior I attached myself to in fiction, I’d have two nickels. This is the first. KOS-MOS was a light of hope in the darkest time of my life and I couldn’t be here without the inspiration she gave me. I gave her Precious Opal and Hepatica. If you know, you know.

I’m so proud of this child.
I gave her the gift of humanity this year.
