TW: blood

AU: Revers bloodymary

C.O.I. has once again sent an expedition to the blood ocean of AT-5, following the incident with SM-13. The black boxes have been opened, tearing out the horror of the depths hidden within them, and the faint crumbs of hope for new possibilities.

They need to understand what this entity is and how it survives inside that bloody hell. The new submarine is upgraded, more reliable, and now equipped with new devices.

One thing is missing - a pilot.

But this time, the goal isn't just to find something, it's to understand and study the depths... they need a scientist.

First - Previous - Next

just a closeup on the dialog in the last doodle \/

“All that is gold does not glitter,

Not all those who wander are lost;

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

A light from the shadows shall spring;

Renewed shall be blade that was broken,

The crownless again shall be king.”

I’m rereading the trilogy and I remembered that I’ve been meaning to draw my boy Viggo as Aragorn for YEARS so I thought it would be a good way to occupy my hands while my ears are listening to the audiobook. I was right. It’s been literally months since I’ve done a digital portrait like this, I wish I had more energy and that I could do them more often.

Timelapse under the cut

(Left) This is a traditional Somali ship known as a beden. Traditionally, the planks are sewn together with coconut fiber instead of hammered with nails. Did you know ancient Somalia had a maritime empire?

(Right) Galway hooker, from Galway Ireland. The original cloth sails were treated with a solution made from treebark to protect them from rot, which just so happened to turn the sails their iconic rusty red color, and modern synthetic sailcloth is dyed to imitate this.

(Left) Viking boats (amongst others) were built with the planks overlapping (clinker) instead of being flush (carvel) this provides flexibility for the boat to bend instead of break in rough seas but still maintains strength.

(Right) a Māori waka taua (decorated war canoe). This particular one is Ngā Toki, and it previously held the world record for longest canoe at 123 feet long and 6 1/2 wide).

Four more that I know less about:

(Left) Haida dugout canoe.

(Right) Vietnamese Ghe Nang.

(Left) An Unangax baidarka.
