ETHARI CHANGED HIS MOONSHADOW MARKINGS ON HIS ARMS???? FROM THE CIRCLES TO A SWIRL????

A) So does that mean they’re painted on?

B) if they are painted, does he change them because runaan isn’t there anymore to help him paint them??? Because like, an even circle is real difficult to draw on your shoulder without help.

C) in terms of character design, I will be interpreting this as him losing stability. His old design was perfectly symmetrical, whereas now he’s a little off kilter, literally spiraling with grief. To me, there’s a lot of meaning in his markings specifically, especially the ones under his eyes that look like permanent tear tracks 🫶

D) goddamn it now I have to relearn how to draw his markings

ok I’m going to draw something for the happy bit of the reunion later but OH MY GOD. THE ANGST??? ETHARI BEGGING RUNAAN TO STOP HAUNTING HIM????? WE USED TO PRAY FOR THE REUNION TO BE THIS GOOD. I AM THRIVING. MY CHEST HURTS. I CRIED WHILE DRAWING THIS. IM ON CLOUD NINE.

Uh gay gay homosexual gay

I’m alive!!! Work sort of took over my life for the last few months (and so did a Star Wars obsession but there’s not a lot of content from that) but I’m back to my very infrequent posting schedule

Aaaaand my hand slipped oops

I am obsessed with how much Ethari’s designed changed juxtaposed with how little runaan’s did, and on the flip side, how much runaan changed as a character vs. how Ethari remains an anchor, both for runaan and as a character

Here’s a funny doodle i did for a friend! I thought it’d fit on here sooooooo have a Hubert meets Sampo Koski from Honkai StarRail :)

Maybe I’ll do a follow up with Ferdinand and Jepard?

A good couple of months ago, I rewatched the Ferdinand and Hubert FEW3H supports with the intent to re-imagine Ferdinand’s twin jewel speech as a comic—until when this first part of their A support totally derailed me. I realized that Hubert’s line here about how easily Ferdinand could kill him is:

A) actually hubert’s twisted way of saying “I trust you enough for you to kill me and get away with it”, and

B) totally angst in waiting because Ferdinand *does* kill Hubert in other routes, and Hubert’s line is such a funny wink wink to the player acknowledging that

So anyway, obviously I had to adapt that specific scene into a comic instead. I’ll probably do the twin jewels speech at some point, but rn I have another comic in the works for these two that’s not support related, so stay tuned I guess?

Personal Art Blog!

Hi y'all! I don't normally do stuff like this, but I'm starting a second blog to post more of my personal art, and to document making a short original comic! It's been a long term goal of mine to make one, and after making this ruthari comic in just 12 hours, I realized I needed to sit down and try.

My goal is to make just a five page comic from the ground up and document it all here. I invite anyone else with a creative goal to join me, let's make 2025 a year to be proud of!

On a less optimistic note, my life is about to get a lot more hectic, so I probably wont be able to post daily ruthari fanart like I have been. I have school and a job, and sadly I have to prioritize real-life over my interests. I will post whenever I can though! Ruthari and Ferdibert are still some of my greatest muses, so I will be drawing them more in the future for sure lol

More sketch book etharis! Ngl I totally forgot how his actual face looks, I’ve been doing a completely different interpretation for the last like five years 😔

Also he’s 100% daydreaming about runaan in the first doodle

Doodle of them ❤️

I cant stop thinking abt Ethari singing that lullaby Rayla sings in s6
