Some holiday fan art of Terry’ Pratchett’s Discworld Christmas fantasy-adventure: THE HOGFATHER! Where Death himself and his granddaughter Susan Sto-Helit must save the disc’s equivalent of Christmas and Santa from nefarious forces, along with encountering the strange new fairy creatures, gods, bogeymen, assassins, and holiday traditions! HO! HO! HO!
“Clouds parted in front of her and there, spread below, was Ankh-Morpork […] Susan could hear the sounds of the streets, even individual voices, but there was also the great roar of the city, like some kind of insect hive. Upper windows drifted by, each one a glow of candlelight”.
Sooner or later it’d get to you. Death was fascinated by humans, and study was never a one-way thing. A man might spend his life peering at the private life of elementary particles and then find he either knew who he was or where he was, but not both. Death had picked up…humanity. Not the real thing, but something that might pass for it until you examined it closely.
sooo after about 3 years of not posting art on here I think it’s time I start again! I’ve dove head first back into one of my first fandom loves - discworld! and I think tumblr is the best home for all my conceptual scribbles, so this is just a bit of a warning for those following me of what content to expect for the foreseeable future (though I’m sure fantasy gays will still be dotted around). if that’s not your bag that’s totally understandable, and if it is well enjoy the next wee while of me slowly uploading the last few months worth of discworld fan art! here’s a sketch dump from across a handful of the books to get us started.
A piece I did for a printmaking class years ago. The class focused on mixing inspirations, so I chose discworld and pulled inspiration stylistically from Rad Sechrist. Unfortunately I never got the actual prints back, but I at least have the digital version!
