Terra-Essence Art

Guess what? I've decided to post up all of my old fanfic. I'll be going through it and lightly editing it before putting it on DeviantArt and Fanfiction.net . I'm super nervous about this because I've always been overly critical of my writing, but whatever. I used to post fanfic up on Quizilla back in the day before it was bought out. Eventually when Quizilla turned suckish, I took all my work down, got super ambitious, and wanted to create my own fanfic VNs. Basically, right now, I lack the time and the funds to create quality VNs for both Naruto and Death Note. I planned out writing all these paths for each character (which for Naruto is an undertaking haha~), but I decided to put everything on hold and pretty much drop the projects. Instead, I'll focus on my original rpg/VN because honestly I need to generate money (gotta eat, you know~) and I want to make a living off of my art and writing. For now, I've decided to simply post up what I've already w...

So recently I got into a novel called Uncertain Magic by Laura Kinsale. It's a fantasy/romance/historical piece and I absolutely adore the characters and admire the way Kinsale weaves her tale. Though Faelan (the hero) calls Roddy (the heroine) "little girl" as a disturbing nickname, I was still enthralled with the story and plot. I have to admit I fell in love a little with Faelan and so this fan art was born! Personally, I'm still not happy with the way this came out (-_-") I went for a semi-realistic art style which isn't something I'm completely comfortable with, but I tried anyways. I tinkered a lot with his face and it still didn't come out as 'realistic' as I wanted it to, but whatever. The picture I created depicts a scene from the novel. It takes place on the night of November Eve when fairies come out to dance with the dead. Faelan declared he was Finvarra, King of the Fairies, and that Roddy was his lady, Lassar (which means '...

I did some more art recently. This is an apprentice priest for my rpg / visual novel.   And here's a video of the process!  

Here's some concept art for my character, Jaws. He's a daemon from the capital of Mareterrae (the water kingdom) - Trenton. He's one of the main characters in an rpg / visual novel I'm making. I haven't posted up much (or anything, actually😅)  about my visual novel, but eventually I will! 😁Down below I posted a time-lapse of me digitally painting. *Suddenly gets pushed aside* Jaws: You're in the way. Jaws: I'd like everyone to know that's not my blood. Me: Oh, really? Jaws: Yes, really. It's not my fault the enemy decided to bleed everywhere. They were particularly messy today.

I finished this a few days ago. It's based on the Japanese mythology about Amaterasu hiding in a cave. Apparently Amaterasu hid herself away in a cave due to an argument and refused to come out. Since she's the sun goddess, the world was covered in darkness and evil spirits roamed all over the earth. To lure her out of the cave, the other gods tried many things. They placed a large tree outside the cave and decorated it with magatama, white clothes, and a mirror at its center. In addition, another goddess danced so wildly with a strip-tease routine that the other gods' laughter caused Amaterasu to become curious. She opened her barricaded cave and was distracted by her reflection in the mirror. Eventually she was yanked out of the cave and there was sunlight over the earth once more. Here Amaterasu is entranced by her reflection and is being honored by a priest and priestess below.

This is some new concept art I'm working on for a visual novel and also for a 3D environment I want to make in Unreal Engine. It depicts Trenton, the capital of the Water Kingdom/Mareterrae. Mareterrae is the birthplace of all Daemon. Though most Daemon have only horns and long claws to distinguish them from Runamak (Humans), Daemon are built sturdier and are quite different. For the past few centuries, the two races haven't had the best of relations. They're quite prejudiced against each other due to skirmishes and blood shed on both sides.

“Imagine instead spires of crystal twining through the branches, palaces floating among the clouds. Imagine beings who lived forever, for whom magic was as natural as breathing. That is what was lost.” ―Solas This is what I imagined, Solas! (Can you tell I'm a Dragon Age fan? :D)
