July Pinup #1 - Brotherhood Lost
Added 2022-07-10 20:08:27 +0000 UTCTwin brothers and knights of the realm return from their respective diplomatic missions, each changed by the journey. One, sent among the savage Elves, has spent years exposed to the raw primal magics of the land; interfaced with animistic spirits who care only for the true powers of survival, might, and fertility; and dined on the protein rich elven diet of game meat and supplement heavy plants. The other, sent among the secretive Nightfolk, has spent his time living in a world of sinister magic rituals, cutthroat and conniving politics, and the fawning worship of Imp minions. Their experiences has made them hardly resemble each other, though they each independently came to a rather dramatic change...

I had a story in mind for this pinup but for some reason I got a weird kind of vertigo as I was finishing the shading and I can't really sit and type right now. I did write a first draft yesterday so I'll probably update this with the story later <3
Hope you enjoy it without the story though <3

Ah, home is where the hate is I guess. Still can't deny that living outside humanity paid off for them. No more beans on toast! \o/

2022-07-11 08:45:32 +0000 UTCI hope you do post the story if you choose to type it up I would also love to see an origin of story similar to Josie one day. Especially for the elf

2022-07-10 23:12:36 +0000 UTCAbsolutely lovely work! I can't help but feel a little sad that these two disowned their familial bonds so completely, but maybe they just need to get roped into some grand quest to bond as sisters!

2022-07-10 22:21:18 +0000 UTCOooooh! She's looking side eye! I somehow read that as looking straight on, so large grey pupil - iris - white sclera! Should have read that in reverse!

2022-07-10 22:17:26 +0000 UTCSo far I've drawn them with white pupils because it seemed right ^^ So yeah, glowy eyes!

2022-07-10 22:09:54 +0000 UTCOkay, silly lore question for Kim: Does the Nighfolk sister here have spooky glowy eyes like in the gem swap 2 image? I can't tell if it's the angle, or if the spooky eyes are just with some Nightfolk (or 'natural' Nightfolk).
ChiCha
2022-07-10 22:03:37 +0000 UTCTo be fair that was from the Nighfolk sibling, I think aka goth halflings that stole height from demons to live their best hot topic lives, and in this case the elves are all beefy barbarians.

2022-07-10 21:59:23 +0000 UTCMan, this turned out simply wonderful! Really enjoy the designs and how they contrast both each other and their former selves so well, and the dialogue is absolutely hilarious. 10/10, send more of this family on diplomatic missions.
