cw for gore but: a quick drawing of The Unzippening bc it wouldn’t leave my head. play “Placing the Blame” by sElf for maximum impact!
some drawing notes:
- something I really wanted to depict here is the contrast between scourge and firestar. scourge is skinny, his expression is visible as he bleeds out, his claws are out because he was intending to kill.
- firestar on the other hand… I wanted to depict him as small and as out of his element as possible. round shapes, not a claw or tooth in sight. his face isn’t even visible. the only injury he has is the cut on his head. his fur is smooth. if it were just him on an empty space, someone can probably mistake him as a kitten.
- since this is a top down view, you don’t see as much blood on firestar in comparison to scourge. but you know it’s there. scourge has been vivisected completely and the conveniently dog-shaped trail of blood leads to firestar. there’s a puddle of it beneath him. if we looked at a direct angle the entirety of this cat’s stomach and legs are soaked in it.
This is incredible.
