An excuse to draw hot shirtless men is not one to be missed. : D

Then followed twenty minutes of shirtless, leanly-muscled, sweaty, long-haired men grunting and punching each other and eventually wrestling in the dirt. Lavinia got a massive nosebleed, and Xanda got Midnight to tell Kali to bring popcorn. Everyone enjoyed themselves except the ones who were male.
And then Jayce showed up and was horrified and cleaned everything up and scolded them. Everyone agreed that was probably for the best.
[This entire thing never happened in canon.]

Grumpy Long-haired Men

Hrulash and Yintan, similar in temperament if not other things as well, including being rivals for Lavinia’s affections. Except Hrulash ends up giving up that contest in the end because reasons.
But before that, we have two delicious soldier-boys of different races glaring daggers at each other. Hrulash is a 6’2″ human, and Yintan is a 4’10” or 11″ Talfyr. Shenanigans!

Hrulash: It’s pink.
Yintan: F U!

No, Hrulash doesn’t get a break for now. But he doesn’t mind this way so much ifyouknowwhatimean. I think this would need toning down if it were part of the main story… It’s too developed. But it’s not part of the main story, so nyah.

Also this was scanned after I installed the proper software to scan things on my new computer, and… eh, it’s not very good quality. I will have to tweak a few things next time. Continue reading →

My crappy illustration of Jayce and Hrulash’s totally platonic heterosexual manly friendship. And Xanda laughing at the fact that any way you look at it, it looks totally not. Oh, boys. (No, really, they’re both heterosexual, and Hrulash would really appreciate it if you would “get off his case about his failings with girls or he will hunt you down and bend your ear on statistics until you stab yourself in the eye out of boredom”.)
And yes, Hrulash is saying to Jayce that he’s glad they’re friends with the very angriest face he can manage. He’s weird like that. Fortunately, Jayce understands. A little too well for Hrulash’s comfort.
Hrulash swears he didn’t use to use such obscene gestures until Xanda drove him to it. He is a nobleman, after all, and they’re above such stupidity. I think he’s actually pretty mad about her seeing this, though, and might even go after Xan (fear of getting his butt kicked aside) except for the fact that Jayce is still hugging him.
I’m not very good with Jayce’s hair.
Now I have to go finish this DMC fanfic. Ugh, figments. Continue reading →

Jayce

So Yllamse shared Jayce’s theme song with me, and from then I was compelled to draw Jayce. My first pose for him was beyond my technical capabilites (looking up at him like he’s a giant, through a fish-eye lens – I’ll say that’s complicated! : P ) so I changed it into this, which is the same pose but from a more basic angle.

What a cutieeeeeeee. XD

Non-existent background is non-existent.

Hrulash sparring

So I’m drawing a totally unrelated picture for someone else, when this guy comes up to me.

“Hey,” he says. “I need you to draw a picture of me.”

“Hrulash, what are you doing here? The Rifted Riders are off-duty tonight.”

“So? I need a picture.”

“Hrulash, I don’t even have any ideas for you at this exact moment…”

“Doesn’t matter. I’ll come up with something. Just… draw me.”

*sigh* “Well if you insist… it’s a good thing you’re pretty…”

“What was that???”

“Nothing, nothing!” *begins drawing with anime sweatdrop leaking out of head*

He won’t even tell me why he wants this picture. Attention, most likely. : P

He says it’s from sparring practice in Quintus. Obviously this is human!Hrulash and not elf!Hrulash. Elf!Hrulash wouldn’t be so nice about it.

Hrulash and Tseo

My two dragonriderboys, in their AU setting of the Rifted Riders (which in itself in its current incarnation is an AU of the original RR, which was set in a sort of bastardized FFIV Blue Planet which was partly Wayriftian and partly very much not). I’m working on a story to go with this painting. This depicts them just before they met their dragon partners, when they were two semi-irresponsible (can you imagine Hrulash being irresponsible? NO YOU CANNOT) noble brats running around a city in Quintus, getting in trouble, honing skills they never imagined they’d seriously use in real life. Continue reading →
