Tumblr Sketch Request #11 - Fall From Grace Gangbang ( Planescape Torment)

Thanks to anon for this request.

I wonder why I keep thanking requester, while half the time they don’t even thank me for doing them basically a free service. Well, if I stop doing requests, you guys know why.

Boy… Requests keep stacking up higher and higher though… 

Fall from Grace - Art Nouveau Fanart Commission

This was an unusual commission for me! As some of you know, I don’t normally do fanart on commission - I don’t like the idea of profiting off of someone else’s IP - and when I do do my fanart SLFPs, I make sure they’re only available once. However, given the current… everything… when my friend emailed me with a query about doing some fanart on commission, I realised I had a solution: if she would donate the normal cost of my commisison to her local hospital or another charity, I would do the art.

This is Fall from Grace from Planescape: Torment, and I had an absolute blast drawing her. (Partially because I haven’t gotten do to any Art Nouveau stuff in ages.)

Her flowers are:
Background:
- Birch trees - gracefulness
Outside the border:
- Windflower - loss, abandonment, sincerity
Base of the trees:
- cowslip - pensiveness, native grace
- sweet flag - fitness, grace
- snowdrop - consolation and hope
- wild geranium - steadfast piety
- gentian - intrisic worth
In her arms:
- yellow jasmine - grace, elegance, modesty
- multiflora rose - grace, many charms
- hundred-leaved rose - grace, pride
- marianthus - hope for better days
- delphinium - big-hearted, fun
- hyacinth - play

Probably the most flowers I’ve put into a single image before!

The Next Chapter’s Shelagh Rogers picks her favourites

“Even though I now live in a rain forest, when I hear “holidays,” I think of snow, frost and darkness. There’s a reason it’s called the ‘bleak’ mid-winter.

But what I treasure about the holidays is that there is time to hunker down with some good books and let the stories draw me into other worlds. I don’t need to feel guilty about not being outside moving around aerobically in the lovely weather. There isn’t any. Or at least, not too much.

There are so many good indigenous books right now. My friends at CBC Aboriginal asked for five “great books” for the holidays, so this is an act of discipline. Putting on my literary spanx, here we go.” LINK.
