I just realised i never posted my piece for @garlemaldzine.bsky.social 😅

It's a simple women's fashion editorial illustration; but if you download the (FREE!) zine you can get a knit pattern for the mittens featured here, put together by one of the other contributors! #art #ffxiv #ffxivart

Editorial fashion illustration of a Garlean, a Miqo'te and a Lalafell modelling garlean women's clothing, including a military style jacket, knitted mittens, Ladies laced boots, Wool Dress & Leather gloves. Prices are in eorzean gil. Text says "IMPERIAL FASHION" in Eorzean script, and in normal typeface: "MADE TO ORDER PERFECT FIT GUARANTEED! Delivery now available across the empire - including the provinces! Mail-in orders accepted. Please include measurements."

My piece for @garlemaldzine.bsky.social! The zine was focused on found Garlean ephemera, so I wanted to draw images that looked like photographs

I ended up printing them as physical photos for the final arrangement, I hope the accoutrements help show the throughline between them :) #albiart

Four photographs are arranged on a table top, surrounded by various paraphernalia. The photos show various scenes including Gaius on Baelsar's Wall, Midas and Cid Garlond, the city of Garlemald, and Terncliff. Additional objects include books, bandages, bullets and tools, and a glass of whiskey.

I seem to have forgotten to post my piece for the Broken Chains: Garlemald Zine! ( @garlemaldzine.bsky.social ) It's sort of a newspaper spread to go along with a snippet I wrote. Link down below!

My piece for the @garlemaldzine.bsky.social Broken Chains! #ffxiv #ffxivart

A drawing of Gaius Baelsar, Shadowhunter version, standing in a sea of blood littered with reminders of all those who have perished under the Garlemald flag - conspirators and victims alike. Notable details include hands representing the Werlyt auri, including Allie, Livia and Rhitahtyn's helms, and debris resembling the Weapons in the background. The Garlemald flag billows behind Gaius as it descends into the blood. In the background is a smokey Garlemald. A silhouette of the imperial palace can be faintly seen amidst the smog. Gaius has his gunblade, Heirsbane, drawn but resting at his side. His expression is somber.
