#fantribes

water study day 7-8-9 is done!

taking a break after this one!

Featuring Angler, Princess Sinai, Sunbringer, and Cometclaws allll the way in the back.

these are the original van-tribes / cethosia designs by ASTRONAVAN that I will be revitalizing... I think regardless of whether or not I end up writing anything, having a hub of information and base files / art is still really important to me and something I've been thinking a lot about.

here's my very much Just Started website to index things. this will likely be a slow process given. my problems. but I really do keep coming back to it so I think it's good for me to dedicate to putting it back together
