So excited to take part in my first @malevolentbigbang.bsky.social! I got to do art for this amazing fic written by The Carrion Queen: archiveofourown.org/works/722940...
Art of a large stylized green eye with a yellow silhouette of Arthur falling in front of it. In the top left corner is a stylized version of John, in the top right there is a stylized stained glass owl of the Magnus Institute, bottom right is an obscured smirking face, and the bottom right is a stylized bloody footprint.

This was made for Malevolent Big Bang 2025 for the fic "i was warming all the cold parts of my head in cups and coffee pots" by wawrthur on ao3. This has been my first Big Bang and I had a total blast collabing and hanging out with wawrthur, Basil and Ixora. Link in comments. #malevolent
Image Description: There is a single digital image of John Doe making a coffee for Oscar, while reflected in the coffee machine beside him Arthur can be seen smiling and blushing as he looks at Oscar. The cafe around them is light and modern, the counter made of planks of scuffed wood, the coffee machine composed of shiny silver panels and copper panels on the sides. Behind the counter next to the coffee machine plants with big green leaves are poking out. Oscar has short curly brown hair with shaved sides, a maroon jacket with fake fur lining and dark green eyes. His skin is pale, his cheeks freckled and blushing and his expression is surprised as he watches John make swan latte art. John's dark brown hair is long and hanging loosely around his shoulders, his skin a warm tan and his eyes are golden brown. His expression is focused and nonchalant. He is wearing a scuffed blue denim apron that has a name tag that reads Arthur and beige tshirt. Arthur reflected in the mirror is wearing the same clothes as John but has a short cropped hairstyle with Sandy Brown hair. His eyes are the same colour as John's.

you guys should totally read my malevolent big bang fic, just saying.

#malevolentbigbang2025
An image showing two reactions to lines of the fic. The first line is "Nothing else could explain the taste of blood in his mouth and the painful stinging in his lungs." The reaction reads "me after running for 100 meters... maybe even less." The second shows a screenshot of the fic saying "this fucking room." The reaction reads "me going into the room of anger and doom".

"John’s heart aches. He coils around Arthur’s heart in case his, too, might shatter inside his ribcage."

My art for this year's @malevolentbigbang.bsky.social for M_Moonshade's fic "Waiting For the Shoe to Drop". [ archiveofourown.org/works/71523391 ]

#malevolent #malevolentbigbang2025
Art of a skeletal hand holding an anatomical heart. The bones of the hand are coloured black with a yellow sleeve covering most of the arm that can be seen. The red anatomical heart is the centerpiece of the artwork, being held in the middle of the picture. Veins and arteries make their way out of the top of the heart and go into different directions in the upper part of the piece. One vein makes its way almost to the bottom of the picture, being cut off before reaching it. The heart is covered in small and dark blood vessels and yellow pieces of fat tissue cover parts of the front of the heart. At the bottom of the heart a small hole can be seen with part of the tissue that was covering it hanging to the side, from the hole a few small cracks make their way up the form of the heart. The background behind the heart and hand is a red colour with different big brushstrokes varying in darkness of the colour. Surrounding the piece is a simple, drawn golden frame.

[ID: A comic-like digital page, set within an aquarium tunnel, depicting John and Oscar - John is a taller man with brown skin, long curly hair, a white shirt and slacks, and Oscar is a shorter man with darker skin, missing his left arm, short curly hair, a beard, wearing a cassock and glasses with a gold chain. The first panel depicts John touching a pane of glass and blood seeping out into the water beyond it, almost like an anemone, red fading into the blue water. The second panel depicts Oscar blushing as he washes the fish tank window in front of him and looks over his shoulder, with a shark curling around the comic frame in the background. The third panel depicts Oscar suddenly startling and squeezing the rag as John in the foreground looks sad and forlorn, the pupils of his eyes slightly glowing. The last panel depicts Oscar's point of view as John, with his back to the viewer, still pokes at the glass in the first panel but the shadow of a shark has passed over him revealing a cloak of tentacles following the pattern of light diffused through water. In the background numerous other fish are shadowed - another shark, tuna, a manta ray, a grouper, a school of fish - and seaweed rises up from the presumed bottom of tank almost like John's tentacle cloak. The blood from the first panel still seeps out into the tank from where he pokes the glass. /end ID] [ID: Digital lineart and color closeup of John touching a pane of glass and blood seeping out into the water beyond it, almost like an anemone, red fading into the blue water. /end ID] [ID: Digital comic closeup of John and Oscar - the first panel depicts Oscar blushing as he washes the fish tank window in front of him and looks over his shoulder.

Page 1: A wide shot of Arthur sitting at a piano with his back towards the camera. To the right are 2 panels with Arthur in profile. A woman's hand rests on his shoulder then moves up to caress his cheek. She sits behind him on the piano bench, it is Lilith with pale skin, long black hair resembling feathers, black neck and black tipped fingers, and markings resembling feathers along her cheeks and jawline. Dialogue reads: Arthur glancing over his shoulder at Lilith: What are you doing here? Lilith, eyes closed, head tilted back: What else? I came for you. Arthur, looking down and eyes heavily shaded: You're not going to lift a finger to stop me. Lilith, eyes still closed, head tilted down and looking smug: Of course not. You're as ruthless as they come, Arthur. And I do so enjoy watching you work. Page 2: Tilted wide shot in profile of Arthur sat at the piano with Lilith leaning against him from behind, she is higher up in the shot than he is. Lilith: After all, you are... On the floor below them in a flowing script font says "My Favorite." Below that is a box with writing credit to my writer, and inks, colors, and lettering credit to myself. Page 2 is styled like the title page in a typical print comic.

#malevolentbigbang2025 #malevolent
An illustration of a roleswap between Arthur and Noel (John is in Noel's body, for example). It is comprised mainly of warm colors, with dark purple shadows. They are sitting in a booth at a diner, as Arthur pulls Noel's hand over the table to rest on the scar across his neck. Arthur's expression is cold, while Noel looks mildly surprised. John's hand is flinching back slightly where it rests on the table.

my second piece for the Malevolent Big Bang! I made a little design sheet of John & Arthur from “piecemeal”, a Frankenstein AU fic written by bluejayblueskies.

link below!

#malevolentpodcast
A design sheet of John and Arthur from the Frankenstein AU. Arthur is a tall, thin white man with messy light brown hair, a mustache and tired eyes. He is wearing a long white lab coat, brown boots and a pair of oval glasses. With his left hand he is holding a clipboard he uses to take notes on. John is an even taller man with a strong build and slightly patchy purple skin covered in rough, unnaturally healed scars. He has long wavy black hair and intimidating yellow eyes. Next to the fullbody poses there are two headshot doodles of Arthur depicting his mental state while “working with Parker” and “in the lab”. Below, there is another doodle of Arthur in his lab coat, backed up against the wall looking scared. All the way to the right there is a halfbody drawing of John, painted in grayscale. He is standing, slightly hunched over and still connected to a few wires.

It’s finally time: here’s my first artwork for the Malevolent Big Bang! I got to draw a cover for “piecemeal”, a Frankenstein AU fic written by bluejayblueskies.

link below!
#malevolentpodcast
A cover illustration for a Malevolent Frankenstein AU by bluejayblueskies. The handwritten title at the top reads “PIECEMEAL”. In the front, Arthur is clutching a big glass jar, visibly frightened. The jar is glowing so brightly you can’t see what’s inside. John is looming over him, his head, shoulders and bust covering half of the background. He is ominously staring at the viewer with glowy yellow eyes. If it weren’t for the cold light coming from below, his face would be just a shadow. He has long wavy black hair and rough scars on his face and chest. A few black wires are connected to his chest and back. In the bottom left corner, Parker is winking and holding a coffee mug. Lilly is happily holding a spatula in the bottom right corner. There’s a giant pair of eyes in the background.

A stained glass image of half-god, half human John kneeling at Oscar's feet, head resting in his lap, clawed hand over Oscar's. Oscar is a white man with chin length brown hair wearing a long black cassock, and a cross around his neck. He's sitting on an ornate brown pew. John has a halo of yellow, purple, and green. He's wearing shades of gold and brown. His skin is a deep gold, and his hair is dark brown/black. There is text in Latin in the arc over their heads. It reads: Ignocentia (Oscar's side) Confiteor(John's side) (forgiveness and confession in Latin) The arc also contains stylized white tulips, which symbolize forgiveness. The prevailing colors in the piece are yellow, green, red, blue, and some purple.

Over the past few months, @zil-street.bsky.social and I have created some illustrations to accompany Fae's beautiful fan fic 'A Way to Go Home' for @malevolentbigbang.bsky.social !

An illustration depicting a man and child embracing, almost clinging to one another. These two people are two different Arthurs, one younger, whilst the other is older. They look to be falling, a large body of water parting under them, and tattered yellow ribbons drifting upward, crumbling apart. There are a couple of nooses in the water under Arthur's feet. There is a frame behind them that is filled with the night sky. The frame features a decorative pattern, along with carved rabbits, and a lighter in the top center, engraved with the text 'This too shall pass'.

Illustration 5: "You, of All People"
Title: "You, of All People" [ID: A possessed Robert Blake stands in the ruined attic of the Federal Hill church, the wrecked beams and boards creating a sort of dark halo around his head. Moonlight shines upon him, and so does the glow from the raging inferno below. Blake's smile reflects the nightmarish madness of the god inside him.]

Title: "A Finger or Two?" [ID: Dennis "The Butcher" Collins is leaning against the desk of his and Arthur's office, framed by the golden light coming in through the blinds of the window behind him. In his right hand, he's holding up a glass of whiskey that catches the light and glints. Collin's expression is relaxed, mischievous, and observant at the same time.]

Illustration 3: So Damn Wrong
Title: So Damn Wrong [ID: An incredibly dark corridor, covered in framed portraits; the people in the portraits have weirdly animal-like luminescent eyes. Three people walk the corridor: Parker in the foreground, looking back at the audience with grim wariness; Arthur slightly ahead of him, walking towards Oscar; and the latter, opening a door in the middle of the hallway, from which the light of late afternoon pours in. Oscar's expression is unreadable as he stares at Arthur.]

Title: Gold in my Mouth [ID: A chaotic scene; Arthur on the left, possessed by the very spirit of the King in Yellow, and glows with golden magic. Charlie on the right, covered in blood from his wounds and looking crazed, is trying his best to reach Arthur to give him the punch of his life. Parker is coming between them, trying his best to keep them apart, while ribbons of sparkling golden magic curl gently around all of them.]

My 2025 @malevolentbigbang.bsky.social illustrations are done! Made for the incredibly talented @ruthannereid.bsky.social's fanfic "Death in the Afternoon" on AO3 (link at the bottom of the thread!

Illustration 1: The Phantom
Title: The Phantom [Picture ID: A view from a slightly lower angle of Parker squatting on a rooftop in his Phantom attire. Dusk is draining away at the horizon, clear smoke rises from the chimneys behind him. The stark light from below casts his shadow and makes the billowing cape glint of a subtle gold.]
