#hunter's path

Tighnari, Verdant Strider 

Oh yes, I make Genshin Impact fanart now. Granted, it's just for the one guy.

So this piece started as a desire to do a Magic: The Gathering-style piece of Tighnari, as a probable custom playmat piece, as well as an opportunity to work on more human subjects to expand my repertoire. 

The first iteration of the playmat design was actually borne from one of the first times I made fanart of Tighnari, in a more graphic style than what I ended up with here, but I shelved that one since it wasn't up to my expectations. (You can find it here: https://reubenyeoart.tumblr.com/post/712061116183953408/using-that-old-piece-of-tighnari-i-did-as-part-of)

Hunter's Path - Tighnari's bow

*Original 3D pieces from Taobao.

Some WIPs working on Hunter's Path for my Tighnari cosplay! I attached all the parts and repainted the golden and white pieces, also I added extra sparkle to imitate his original design!

What do you think?

But I did beeline to work on the fox boy.

I'm AR 45 only in level my exp says I should be AR 55 but shhhh. Level 80s are fine for now.

The same one twice? Or did you mean another number?

I think in this Lucas would come to stay with the Movement after Cal finds him during one of their recruitment drives. He's quiet, but helps out a lot, and keeps mostly to himself.

Something draws Cal to him, and they get closer if only as friends in the beginning.

Flash forward to when he's being "inducted" into Meyerism and has doubts so Cal takes him on a camping trip in the woods. They share a tent, close quarters something even Cal isn't used to, and one night Cal wakes from a nightmare he won't dare explain but Lucas is there to comfort him.

They kiss, a soft tentative touch that has them both reeling, and Cal hits him in the face running off into the night where he explains what happened to him as a child and Lucas holds him as he cries.

Then they grow closer still, even more slow, and Cal sees some random woman getting too close to him and pulls Lucas into his bedroom where they end up spending the night together.

Cal's shaking but he's desperate, eager, and Lucas takes care of him because that's just the type of man he is. He cries when he comes, and Lucas kisses him over and over again.

He's safe with him.
