The Dragon and the Knight of Rose - R.Wesley Nipper 2025

--And now some extras:

Earlier draft of the Tallhorse II, complete with details that you cannot see in the final--

In some versions, Tallgeese has an eagle on its shield, which this one is modeled after; it has two heads for the same reason that the saddle is red and white-- because my headcanon is that Treize is as Austrian as Rilke and Mozartkugeln. The eagle is also wearing a crown because by the time TGII is introduced, Treize has taken over from Relena as Queen of the Earth Sphere. I'm very sad she didn't give him the tiara. Wirklich eine große Schande. u_u

Tallhorse sans barding: Look at that carriage-drawing ass. Mobile suit technician voice: "We know it would have to be this big to maintain its power!"

Close up shots: because Tumblr insists on compressing the hell out of my jpgs:

His Excellency, with his uniform modified to be kinda-sorta in the ballpark of period appropriate.

And here are the very earliest sketches of this project from 1/1/2025.... God, it really was a solid year....

Poor Wufei didn't make it into the final! Maybe he'll show up if I'll do something with the rest of the Green Knight story-- this time without the horse. *Definitely* without the horse.

jesus that first draft was a hot mess.

The girls can have some silly costumes, as a trick-or-treat.

Nazar Egg Ornament, Donations for Gaza 🧿

This is the 1st of what what I plan to make a series of Nazar eggs for charity. ALL proceeds will be donated directly to vetted mutual aid campaigns for Palestinians 🇵🇸 This piece is $100, and I will ship it at my expense. •Please message me if you wish to purchase this egg ornament! This is a unique piece, but I plan to make more, so if I get multiple offers I can start a wait list. I can accept payment by paypal or venmo if you wish to buy it directly, -OR- you can make a donation (*for this specifically! not a past donation*) to the relief fund of your choice & provide me the receipt. If UNWRA is able to cross the border again I will consider them a valid donation venue as well, but for the time being I think the most direct way to help is through individual vetted campaigns.

-Feel free to message me if you have questions. I've admittedly never done something like this before, I just need to contribute something, and art is a something I can make. If this is successful I will make a more permanent home for future charity art pieces.

Detail shots before it was strung: The egg is a cage-free hen's egg, dyed blue and hand etched. The pupil is lacquered india ink & the copper highlights are enamel paint. It is varnished with natural beeswax. It is strung on a beautiful gold nylon cord. It should be fairly fade-resistant but do not hang it in direct sunlight! Hollow eggs like this are obviously fragile, but also more resilient than one might expect; it can handle light jostling without too much worry. The design is original and one of a kind; I will make more in this series but this one is unique 🧿
