#gelfling azra
As we can see from the screenshots I forgot crop these were meant to be posted a lot earlier lol
I still have quite a few of these IG questions to answer. I wanted to share these four because they were my most fun. There’s another that I will post up but it will be included with any other angsty questions
The first one is a few Ocs and their taste in music. I separated them and wrote more but I forgot to watermark them. I don’t think anyone would steal these drawings but still.
- Sera loves opera and takes Ortun and Tau to them as often as she can. It’s one of the few activities she keeps up with from her childhood. Ortun wasn’t the biggest fan but grew to enjoy opera and is quite the connoisseur lol On IG I had the two of them listening to a talented opera singer, Maria Callas. My friend introduced me to
- Fleur and Takoda in particular like just about everything. If it’s got a catchy beat they will be fans of the song/artist/group. I had watched, Turning Red, before drawing this and had them dancing to, I Want It That Way, by the Backstreet Boys. The two of them would be those friends who sing with a hairbrush and put on a performance in front of an invisible audience lol
- Azra I want to say gets introduced to anime and amvs by her soul sister and discovers a bunch of rock and symphonic metal. She has no regrets watching amvs lol She’s listening to Nightwish, Sleeping Sun. A personal favorite song my sister and I discovered one day that cemented our days surfing YouTube for good amvs
- Cha’l can be an old soul and enjoys music similar in beat to Frank Sinatra. It’s easygoing and Cha’l has to have music on when he’s cooking for his family. He’s the type that can play music and not get distracted if he’s focused on a task. He was listening to, “Poetry in Motion” a song my sister showed me from a Fisheye amv from Sailor Moon! But, Cha’l also loves music that makes you want to dance! I’m getting pictures in my head- like if he’s making a recipe he’s done a thousand times he has no problem letting the music speak and make him dance. If I drew him dancing he’s be listening to either Hector Lavoe, Marc Anthony or Elvis Crespo because those artists hold specific moments I see Cha’l and his family doing
Fleur singing in the tavern! There was a commercial that was playing all the time (maybe January? That’s when I believe I drew this) and it gave me jazz bar vibes. The poses and composition were taken from a childhood favorite movie of mine. If anyone could guess it will get a digital cookie! I will say the movie is a direct to video sequel to a much better movie. I’d give another hint but the other hint is giving too much away
MY FAVORITE!!! Lol Kiel and his expressions. He and Fleur are the most expressive but Kiel is the king of expressions. Kiel is a menace to Captain Ortun and he thrives off of knowing that. I love how close he and Tau are. He’s an only childling so Tau gives him a taste of what having a sibling is like. If Tau looks like they’re in vampire garb that’s because I was looking at/thinking about, Interview with the Vampire lol
Lastly, Gelfling Viara and Podling Fleur! Something I never would’ve considered. Even as a Podling Fleur still looks like she can take anyone on while looking cute doing it lol Viara is still just as sweet looking as a Gelfling.
I hope you all enjoy these!
Introducing Azra’s Gran from her father’s side, aka the more eccentric side of the family lol I had to put her side by side with the most recent drawing of Azra I have. Right now Azra’s Gran doesn’t have a name.
There is a reason for her creation what I can say is that she is a Songteller of sorts. We’ll learn more about her in due time.
She’s that unapologetic type of Grandmother who doesn’t worry about who she embarrasses or annoys. She’s a feisty old gal who is also well versed in potions and concoctions. She taught her son what she learned in the hopes that he would teach Azra, but Thra had other plans. Gran taught Azra all she knows and has learned a few new things from Azra.
She is Azra’s role model although she isn’t AS creepy as Azra is. She does still give off a witchy aura about her.
Last one for tonight!
The Castle Guard in the first one isn’t suppose to be Tore but he looks like him from behind lol
Enyo is a fan of warriors and warriors with strong physiques. She and Fleur are cordial but not friends, frienemies but not friends. I feel like a lot of Enyo’s interactions with Fleur are either rival-ish, ignorant or cordial. Maybe Fleur had no drinking buddies that particular night andEnyo happened to be there. Along with a Castle Guard.
I’d add more about that one but we’d be here all day.
The second is a School AU which is fun to imagine! Perhaps one day we’ll see what most of my Ocs would’ve looked like in a modern high school or college setting! Elkie and Azra we’re the most fun to draw. Especially Elkie. I had to draw that artists beret
Azra is using chemistry class to learn to make smoke bombs or concoctions that will help her better in mixing potions for spells. Omg Azra in goth clothes is something I want to draw! Definitely when I end up drawing the school au lineup.
Finally the last one is Elkie and her sister Adette! They are both precious andi must draw more of the two of them together. Since their hair is the perfect shade for dying the Grottan sisters have fun dying each other’s hair. This becomes handy later on so someone doesn’t get the two of them mistaken.
Adette visits topside later and that is when she and Elkie strengthen their sisterhood. Their parents really made a wedge that prevented the two from wanting to be close.
But yeah, after Elkie learns of hair dyes, she goes to the taverns and merchant shops with a new color every few unum (if she chooses)
Before the day is done I have to celebrate the beginning of October with everyone’s favorite Sifan witch, Azra!
I think this is my first semi-full color piece of her- what??? She’s fun and chaotic and I love that so much about her. Out of all of my Gelfling Ocs Azra’s hair color is my most favorite. Red shades are my favorite hair colors!
She looks kinda tired here or maybe it’s just me lol Maybe she’s been working hard on a new potion that causes the worst side effects on the target. Azra has the worst sleeping schedules and will have days where she gets 4 hours of sleep. A habit she unfortunately adopted from her late father. The dark circles under her eyes could be either tiredness or make-up Azra uses to make her dark circles look more aesthetically pleasing to her.
