Dead Worm in a King's Crown

Gen 5 & 8 are top of my list for pokemon art right now :3 haven't decided which to do.. currently fighting for my life (college exam season) but when I'm done I'll finally have some time to draw. rejoice two wolves fighting inside of me (want to draw ocs vs want to draw pokemon) so I'm not sure what will come first but!! on the horizon for sure

im not really up to date on the bbq sauce community so i dont know what the current meta looks like or what the optimal builds are but i would drink bachan's bqq sauce from the bottle

The General I've been wanting to try my hand at digital painting for a little while now - I definitely think I could do better, but it's not a bad start and I really wanted to draw this character :^) anyways this is Dalton and he's got a hugeass snake named Gildian

Thank you!! <3 I've been having a lot of fun doing the pokemon sketches, Kanto isn't currently on my radar but I would like to do all the starters at some point, whenever that may be. So!! Eventually? I'm not sure when I'll get around to doing more pokemon art. I have thought about eeveelutions, I think those would be tons of fun so I would definitely like to do them.

here's an old charizard I never finished, though!

on the floor. sobbing. head in hands thank you very much :)) im glad you like my work <3

Kalos sketches this time around.. which may be related to z-a crumbs being dropped...who knows... I WAS going to do the starter lineup for z-a but i've already done 2/3 of them so i just did the gen 6 starters instead

it looks like they're squaring up but they're just dramatic

every day I stare at my drawing tablet like a starving medieval peasant boy but college has been keeping me busy </3

timelapse below

last ask made me just now realize that two of the characters I have posted are purple and I am not sure if I yapped about the right one hmmmm....

thank you!! I would love to yap about these two :3

First up, the angel in the armour's name is Alden, whose species was synthetically created by a god named Dalton for the purposes of hunting down and killing Progenies.

Knight/soldier type deal who, like the rest of his species, was born to fight and is very good at it - they are able to directly wield a substance called Ichor, which is the fundamental fuel for magic in this world (Gods have a lot of this in their blood, which is why they're so powerful), which they then use to form weapons and their golden armour.

Over time, Alden felt that this cycle of violence and fighting was doing more harm than good, and eventually exiled himself from his god and his people.

Dalton goes missing at some point, which becomes the catalyst to the downfall of his species - Alden very well could be the only one left.

An Event™ causes Alden to have his left wing completely mangled, and leading him to believe that he is a failure. He is left lost in the ruins of his people and his beliefs.

Eventually meets a weird pink moth guy and he's doin a lil better now. Not as optimistic as he used to be but still tries to do good.

unfortunately don't have any recent doodles of him to post with this so erm erm erm uhm uhm moving on -------------------------

The purple one goes by "The Prince". I'll keep this a bit vague since I was planning on chatting about him a bit more in the future. The Prince is only one half of the whole!! He is a Progeny, which you can kind of think of as like a demon/demigod type creature that are born in...strange situations involving mortals somehow surviving coming into contact with something that their bodies & minds cannot handle. (cough). This also almost always involves a near-death experience. He was originally born as elven royalty but then Bad Things Happen, naturally.

Once upon a time, The Prince basically appeared out of nowhere and then went on a warpath. Would show up and kingdoms crumbled around him. He very quickly became notorious as a terrible omen and a creature to be avoided at all costs.

Until one day The Prince completely vanished - and hasn't been seen since.

In reality, he ended up sealing away the majority of his power and has since stayed in a smaller form more reminiscent of what he looked like before his original transformation:

He goes by the name Sylvan - he considers himself and "The Prince" two separate entities (hence, the pseudonym). Bit of a hermit and rarely makes appearances - "Sylvan" is still quite well-known, but the realities of his true self have mostly been lost to time.

He is still able to use some of his abilities but they come at a much steeper cost. He has managed to carefully build up a reputation of strength and cruelty for himself despite his weakened state which wards off the majority from attempting to come after him for any reason. He often puts up an act when in public for this reason.

Like most progenies, the exact workings of his magic are mostly a mystery - but the vast majority have some inkling that he is able to affect the mind in some way.

thank youo my incomprehensible little guys bring me joy :^)

i think he's neat My oc who goes by the pseudonym "The Prince" :^)

I'm really happy to hear that, thank you so much!! :D (Referring to these guys)

Just for some general info: Those four characters are creatures called Sovereigns, who are essentially responsible for how magic works in my oc's world, and have power over the fundamental forces of the universe (although these are just the consequences of them existing, they didn't do it on purpose).

The tag "The Gods" for that post is admittedly a little misleading, since these guys are something a little different. Think more eldritch creature, but not really malicious. Their names are: Oreion, Sovereign of Order Deimere, Sovereign of Chaos Neyliene, Sovereign of Life (Although a more accurate title is Sovereign of Growth and Decay, "Life" is how the majority perceive her) Sorren, Sovereign of Death They are "siblings" in a loose sense, not biologically related due to what they are but have that kind of dynamic. Neyliene is the only one that mortals are actually able to interact with, as long as she doesn't kill them by accident (or intentionally).

None of them are particularly good or evil, but being around them usually has consequences. Hopefully the worst thing that happens is death, but some are not so lucky. And here's some neat little icons I did for them a while back:

I wasn't planning on drawing more pokemon right now but ????? i tripped
