Cosytober Day 1: Pumpkin (prompt list by @rosiesocosy)

It's a bit rushed (like most of these are gonna be), but I think this is a good start. I tried to use this colour pallete but I got bored of that really quickly, maybe next time I'll use only the pallete colours, who knows (ᵕ—ᴗ—)

tryinggg. to get some commission examples for my kofi. hoping to throw myself back into commission work. my lifes a little less Fucking Hectic nowadays so i feel more assured of myself

so yeah. side note; seeing ive got 76 followers on tumblr is insanely shocking, btw! again im not really used to much social media attention. i really appreciate those of you that like my art enough to follow me

since im hoping to open my commissions up more soon, thats on the table! in the meantime, take this little thing. one of the examples i did

guh

alright trans ppl we're returning to the fucking sea until shit gets better lets go everyone

Cosytober Days 2, 3 & 4: Leaf, Broom & Bunny (prompt list by @rosiesocosy)

And today's pallette that was barely even more than a suggestion... This one is even more rushed than the last one. I was trying to figure out what to draw and then I got frustrated and then idk what happened and then boom!! ˗ˏˋ ★ ˎˊ˗

Tomorrow's will definitely be simpler (╥﹏╥)

asking out of curiosity, how are rain world ship names chosen? I tried figuring it out myself but couldn't get it?

the they/thems

The full version of my interpretation of Myla's song ("Bury my mother, pale and slight..."), based on the tune she hums. Sung by me (at 2am) (with a cold). I'm… actually pretty proud of how this turned out!

Context: When the city was condemned, were the miners still in Crystal Peak left outside? Did they wonder what happened to their families left within? Did they sing for them? For the knight and dreamers whose memorial they may once have seen? For the desperate hope for a brighter future? Even just a chance to mourn?

Additional Context: The really fun thing about rounds is how one by one the voices inevitably die off until there is only one remaining. :)

(I really didn't expect so many people to want to hear the whole thing! Many thanks to The Embraced One and Camellia Flingert on Youtube, whose recordings of Crystal Peak ambience provided the perfect background noise/pickaxes/ominous rumbling.)

Full lyrics under the cut.

Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, yo-na-la (Ke-ti-ya) ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ye-le-ki, ye-la-ka, no-na-na ye-le-ko

[Chorus:] None shall enter, none shall leave, the king has sealed our kin. But we yet breathe, unite and grieve and sing for those within. Gates will open; we take hope and mourn ‘till morning comes. Soon the knight will bring the day – it’s this the crystal hums!

Oh, bury my mother, pale and slight, Bury my father with his eyes shut tight, Bury my sisters two by two, And then when you're done, let's bury me too!

Oh, bury the knight with her broken nail, Bury the lady, lovely and pale, Bury the priest in his tattered gown, Then bury the beggar with his shining crown!

[Chorus]

Oh, bury the traitor marred by pride, Bury his daughter at her lover’s side, Bury the sage and his sons all three, But save by their grave a space for me!

Oh, bury the smith and his blood-soaked art, Bury the writer with a broken heart, Bury the fool with their shield stained red, But ask them thrice to be sure that they are dead!

[Chorus]

[As a round] Oh, bury the teacher in her hallowed hall, Bury the watcher in his tower tall, Bury the beast in her silken cave, Then bury the one who dug their graves.

Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, yo-na-la (Ke-ti-ya) ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ye-le-ki, ye-la-ka, no-na-na ye-le-ko

...

This started as a ditty to sing while chopping wood and ended with three separate ambience loops, boss scream cameos from the Radiance and the Crystal Guardian, and the realization that the official soundtrack has a perfectly good cover of someone going na-na-na to the tune of the main theme already, why not throw that into the chorus somewhere quietly while we're at it…
