Big Bang post 1
for this year's fmabigbang challenge, I had an honor of working with mfelizandy and fractured_chaos and their story "Arcanum Parterfamilias". it's an epic tale taking place quite a few years after manga's ending, has some elements originating from first anime, therefore it should be treated more like an AU, than actual following of any series. it mostly takes place in a certain forgotten city and deals with past that was long forgotten. canon characters appear, as well as lots of lovely and amazing OCs. the story is still in progress (20 chapters!) and that's why, I'll be posting illustrations when certain chapters are posted (yes, I did more than one drawing this year as well...). please read this amazing tale!

The senior yevarshedaht swept into motion, their sticks blurring and sashes flying as they leapt and thrust, swept and spun. The boys on the walls cheered and gasped as Makhu escaped a broken jaw with a back handspring that rotated in midair and brought him back to his feet with his stick moving to catch Mishyael under one arm and flip him forward. Mishyael gave to the pressure, rolled over his shoulder, then stayed crouched close to the stone floor of the courtyard and twisted Makhu’s feet out from under him. Abrahn watched with a calm, weighing gaze as the two men wrestled.
motion and action scenes are not my forte. but I have to learn ad do those sometime, right?^^; watch me fail for the time being
concept sketches I did before getting to work on final illustrations. I had to get a hang of the characters first, try putting authors' words into my lines. it was a great fun and pleasure, and I hope I did justice to all of them. I added names next to all drawings, because most of those characters will appear later in the story, but I want you to be able to see how I imagined them. also, please note that I rarely draw animals so...^^;
this final sketch is a little surprise for my authors, because there are some characters and some scenes that deserve being drawn but didn't make it yet to polished illustrations^^; so yes, I did draw Asher for the very first time without your supervision and he may look off, but please forgive me^^; and is it wrong that I'm starting to ship him with Naomi? I dunno, twins seem to agree with me^^; Ed and Al are from... a certain scene I can't help but laugh at^^; Marissa and Theo are being cute just because
so there! go and read all amazing entries at fmabigbang!
