was struck by sudden inspiration to paint everyone's favorite hot boy with watercolors 🎨
#art #watercolors #CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanArt

a shoulders-up watercolor portrait of Essek Thelyss from Critical Role. he is depicted as a young-looking slender drow with light gray-purple skin and short white hair. there is a silver ornament hooked around his pointed ear, shaped like a small leafed branch. his shirt is filled in with almost black purple ink, allowing his face, neck and right hand to stand out; the hand is up by Essek's face, the fingers touching his lips in a pensive gesture as he looks off to the side. the background behind his head and in the upper right corner is sectioned off and filled in with the same ink as his shirt, balancing the composition and providing a dark backdrop for Essek's light hair.

thinking about how we know theres a limited number of shapers. but also that we've been told that we have an orcish god of war, an elvish goddess of life, and a halfling god of trickery. has me wondering about possible human, dwarf, and lionkind (nara? nada? nnnnn?) dieties. #criticalrolespoilers

13 is a LOT of cast to draw, but here's my first explorations of 5 of them! Loving the vibe for CR4 already!

Group watercolour image of 5 members from Critical Role's new campaign, including Wick (tattooed teal hair cleric), Tyranny (pink tiefling in cleric garb) Occtis (victorian dress with long black hair), Timble (brown haired fairy with bright green dragonfly wings) and Hal (handsome orc with greying hair.)

i truly cannot get over the fact that we've named leann rhimes's character fucking DIXIE. when the chicks choose to remove that from their name? maybe *ryan murphy* shouldn't pick it up and use it again. #911nashville

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

The image is a six panel black and white comic

Panel 1- A small child is being told "You'll want kids when you're older!" The child responds with "I don't think so..."

Panel 2- The same child, now a teenager, is being told, "You'll change your mind when you're older." To which the teen responds, "I doubt that"

Panel 3- Now an adult, someone off screen asks them, "Aren't you thinking of having kids?" To which they respond, "Nope"

Panel 4- The same person, an older adult now, is being told, "better have kids soon, or it'll be too late!" to which they respond, "That's fine"

Panel 5- Now elderly, they are once again asked "Don't you feel like you missed out?" to which they say, "Still nope."

Panel 6- They are now in their death bed, clearly close to death. The nurse says, "Shame you didn't have kids, don't you regret it?" To which the person says "You know what just kill me already"
