Concept Art 1
Blaze (He/They)

Ooo my lil magic entertainer! Isnt he just precious? Hopefully i’ll draw those two with color!

I think this is a lesson that 3rd time is the charm!

Bonus doodle in the thread! (Ie whats in that big blank space)
#characterdesign #conceptart #sketch #art

On the top of the page there are 3 headshots, the first has the text “og shapes”, the second “idea 1” and the third “✨Pretty Boy✨” they each have slight differences between them such as different eyebrow shapes, nose lengths, and eye shapes. The 3rd is more refined.
Middle of the page contains a front and back view of the right hand, the palm view has potion stains in green, purple, blue, and pink. While the back view shows his nails are painted with those same colors!
A doodle is to the right of a chibi blaze shrugging with the text “no scars or curses so no body chart”
Finally at the bottom there is the text “Blaze. Late 20’s. Masc Nonbinary?. Autistic”
There is also a blank space to the right, the doodle will be in the thread below.

Does your heart ever ache so bad because its so full of love and you just want to cry but its so silly because these characters aren’t even real yet you can still feel so much love and happiness over fictional creatures-

Its a nice place to be in my mind, despite being overwhelming. Its comforting.

Doodle Idea Interaction

Vague lore implications

Eva talking to Blaze: “Im surprised that you don’t think im strong. I mean”

(Flashback)

Younger Eva, covered in blood with murderous intent in her eyes: “How else could I have survived down there…”

That silly red string trend thing? I forgot what its called. But I have a silly interaction in my head about Eva and Blaze for it.

🔞Kraft but ✨Spice✨🔞 @kraftafterdark.bsky.social · 22d

Hopefully some content tomorrow? I have such a silly sketch idea but im not sure how much people will like it, hopefully the silliness works though!

"Porn bans" ALWAYS lead to trans bans

Michigan bill seeks to lock up trans people for posting selfies.

A bill introduced by Michigan lawmakers last week would ban porn, ASMR, depictions of trans people, and VPNs for anyone using them in the state.

Bonus doodle! I didn’t want to accidentally end up triggering the censor for the concept art so I decided to separate it!

Censored for artistic nudity (but still covered technically?)

A chibi of a man is sitting on the ground with his legs to the side. They are nude aside from a towel draped across his lap. He wears a slightly nervous expression and his wavy hair is let down.

If you haven't e-mailed your reps or called them, do it now. If you haven't complained to paypros over the phone or send a letter, do it now. Take any kind of action or live to regret it if this all goes south. We need you with us.

caede17223 🔞 @caede17223.bsky.social · 23d

This threatens all of us, including YOU right there. If you don't check your favourite creators' reposts, if you scroll past their calls to action, you don't get to say a single thing when those creators are gone sooner rather than later.

We have immense power in numbers. Do not comply in advance.

Interested in more lore revolving these two? I dropped some on my other account!

Please note this does go into the darker sides of town, and whats hidden beneath the surface.

KM @kraftsmagic.bsky.social · 23d

i dont know how else to drill it into people's heads but you are going to see this happen to more and more creators until there's no one left, or at least until the infrastructure that allowed us all to share our work as a community and create careers out of it is completely gone

you have to act

Lilirulu: Currently Warframe Brain'd @lilirulu.bsky.social · 24d

Vrelnir (Creator of Degrees of Lewdity) just mentioned that Subscribestar soft banned their page. So, those rumours that Substar was banning certain kinds of content (DoL has a plethora of upsetting kinks) were in fact true.

After I made my post about substar I got a lot messages from friends saying I should rethink my approach on posting there. The problem is that everything falls back on the payment processors. There won't be a "safe haven" for adult creators if this continues. Not even fanbox.

DCS 🔞 @darkchibishadow.bsky.social · 24d

Lrt even platforms like substar are not safe because no high risk processor is truly safe when visa and Mastercard determine all the stakes. We have to make processors change their mind and we have to make local reps push back against these fucking id laws. Take action!

Tomorrow we all need to pound ALL of our reps about this. Demand consequences.

Theyre doing shit like this because they think they will face no meaningfup consequences, so we need to make a big fuss about this so it isnt further normalized

Deeply disturbing. Missouri is implementing age verification for 18+ sites through its AG. No vote, no legislation, just the Attorney General implementing the policy and forcing AV on its residents

Okay because Blaze concept work is taking stupidly long (blame their hair)
Lemme show the old designs!

2019 and 2022

Eva is kept fairly similar in the redesign, although I want to edit her outfit so it fits her lifestyle better.

Blaze will be closer to the og concept with lots of improvements!

Two figures stand in the photo, a woman with a staff that has a purple gem in it. Wearing a black witches gown, and a black hat, along with a golden wedding band on her right hand. Her hair is a deep purple and she has light brown eyes in a rather unimpressed expression.

A man stands to her left, carrying a broom stick. He wears purple and blue pastel robes with a white shirt and gray pants. His hair is a vibrant gold and slightly wavy. His witch’s hat is the same purple as his robes. He wears the same golden wedding band on his left hand. His eyes are a pastel green and his expression is a vibrant smile. With faint freckles along his cheeks.

Art from 2019

A symmetrical full body stands in a white canvas. She has a dark purple witches hat with a purple spider web like veil that goes to her torso. With small charms of a crescent moon and silver star hanging off of it.
Her purple hair goes down to her knees in a loose ponytail only tied around the bottom with a bow. Her outfit is a similar purple, with black boots, and yellow accents such as her shawl.
She has fishnet gloves and a staff to her side that encloses a purple gem.

A man with messy blond hair and emerald green eyes stands in a symmetrical full body on a white canvas. He wears a partially unbuttoned dress shirt, and a desaturated blue robe.
His dark blue pants go to his knees, with black boots that go to just under the knee with a text to the side saying “no clue yet” as this was a wip.
On his waist is a golden watch hanging from the belt loops of his pants.

Blaze concept art soon :3 silly golden boy

Hes a potion magic user! While he doesn’t cast using his hands like most witches, they instead use their magic to create potions :D

Hes worked there since he was young! As his mothers owned the shop and he was set to take it over as their own someday!
