    Nurn'Kal looks like THAT? I can see why people join the cult then...

     Wait,  Nurn'Kal cult?  Well  I mean,  he's objectively the best looking Shadowling Ascendant so I can see that.

    I hope at least one of those photos got Zeke's good side.

    I'll have you know that every side of Zeke is his good side.  lol

  2. Technically this would be a redraw, here we have Comm's Officer Jenkins and Nurn'Kal

    a scene based off of a round I had a few(?) nights ago
    pictures_by_phantasmicdream_ddcj8yq-full

    So,  context there was an officer that was kind of following Zeke around taking his picture.  don't know if he was trying to be stealthy or not and didn't really bring too much attention to it.   Later on the captain approached Zeke with a bag (not sure where it came from tobehonest) and inside of it was full of these pictures of Zeke (and of course other people who would have been around).  

    I dunno,  it just really stuck out to me.  Also I unfortunately don't remember who the captain,  I just remembered a blue skrell with short tendrils.  RiP

  3. The Multiverse and/or The Alternate Universe 

     

    These are some of my favourite things to play around with every now and then,  and what it really boils down to is a bunch of what ifs.  The concept of this for characters and stories and characters have been floating around for a long time,  an example of this would be with Marvel's Spider-man.  This could also be played as a sort of split in time line;  was there a big decision that your character have to make?  What if they chose a different option?

     

    So why think about making an AU?
    It can get you thinking about what your characters would do if they were placed in a different setting, or if they chose to do something different in their life journey.   Would your characters act the same or differently if their original ambitions where changed?  If one character's life changed,  how would this effect other characters? This can help give you different ideas to play around with, without having to mess around with your character's actual canon.   And who knows,  you might like the idea enough to make it canon or to use for a new character!!

     

    What would be examples of an AU?
    A few ideas you could play around with is,  What if your character is now a villainous type?   What if a major event in their life went differently?  or What if that major event never happen?   What if they placed in a modern/future/medieval/ect. time setting?  What if they were a different species?  or gender?

    Some examples using my character  Zeke

    For a villainous type, we have Vampire Zeke.   Where everything in his life has went the same as normal canon,  but having the unfortunate thing happening where a Vampric Blue Space entity take over his body.   At this point he could have become a whole new character,   being a monster striped of his 'humanity'   He's a lot more careless, messy, and dramatic.   He's just floating around being 'evil' trying to look good.  Due to being in a relationship while this happened would have ruin it, or at least made his partner want to try and save him

    Having gone down a different path +Villainous type, we have (traitor) Agent Zeke where the majority of his backstory is the same.  However, when learning the truth or full story of the events of his parents death and the rest of the members of that mission, he grew a hatred of Nanotrasen.  hating how NT seemed to play a huge role in his life,  he no longer wanted to have anything to due with it which lead him to join the syndicate.   In this case,  a lot of things that had happen on stations would no longer be valid,  Not having long ass tendrils,  no longer having the friends he did, and no lover being in any sort of romantic relationship.

    Lastly  different setting +different species,  Padawan Zeke  because who doesn't like Star Wars.   Which has been an interesting setting,  taking a very emotional character who really seek to have love and affection and in a setting with a role where he would have to suppressed these sorts of feelings to be a Jedi.  He's a very flustered boi.

    •This was fun to do up,  and I'd love to hear about other people's AUs!•   ^-^

  4. Colour theory, something Artist should know but most artist don't really care too much to know about it.   But what is the purpose of colour theory?  Basically to know what colours go well with each other, and how to use them to portray a mood you're setting. 


    FIRST;   The Basics

    1443218418.png.fe72e94d786bad66fbe05958ca5d5a41.png 0fd3eb72412dd2ec588db4476b8dcebc.png.327cc7162c9b07ec7952653335ba0b10.png

    Primary Colours:  Red, Yellow,  Bluee
    Secondary Colours:  Orange, Green, Violet
    Tertiary Colours:  Orange-Yellow,  Red-Orange, Violet-Red
                                  Blue-Violet, Blue-Green, Green-Yellow

     Hue Saturation -  
    This would be colour before adding any lights or dark.  Most of the time you wouldn't use all of your colours in full saturation as it can sometimes be straining on the eyes, plus they don't always look well together.

    Complementary Colours-
    If they're opposite from the from each other on the colour wheel, they'll probably go well with each other
    Red - Green
    Yellow - Purple
    Orange - Blue

    RGB - Red, Green, Blue
    This is what the internet and computer normally uses
    CMYK - Cyan, Magenta, yellow, Black
    This is what printers normally uses 

     

    SECOND;  Picking the right colours

    things.thumb.jpg.d4a75abd64e121dabb749d95a5986327.jpg

    There's a few things to keep in mind what you're wanting the setting of your drawing/picture to be,  is the setting cold are dark?  Have more blues and/or purples.  Is the setting more warm and bright?  Have more yellows and oranges.  Do you want colours to be more in harmony?  Looking at the colour wheel,  pick one colour and then the two beside it will still work with them.  Example,  picked green?  You can use Yellows and Blues with it.    If you're wanting something to pop from the picture,  that's when you keep the complementary colours in mind.  Example,  if you have mostly blues and violets in your picture the object you'd like to pop would be orange or yellow.

    Colours and Meanings
    Colours can a many sorts of meanings, and can make people feel things. 
    So here's some examples that I took from my old book from college, "Color Workbook" by Becky Kornig

    Red- Blood, Martyrdom, Sin, War, Anger, Fire, The Sun, Sexuality, Evil, Fertility, masculinity, Festivity 
    Yellow- Treachery, Cowardice, Light, Truth, Warning, Cheerfulness, Spirituality, the Sun, Gold, Radiance, Earth
    Blue- Heaven, The celestial sphere, Water, Baptism, Space, Coolness, Eternity, Faith, Serenity, Wisdom, Feminine
    Green- Spring, Resurrection, Envy, Holiness, Charity, Regeneration
    Black- Death, Evil, Darkness, Void, Witchcraft, Sadness, Mourning, Time, Rebirth
    White- Light, Air, Purity, Marriage, Death, Redemption, innocence, Surrender
