seven for the ask meme?
7: Sketching, lining, or coloring?
Probably coloring? Especially assuming it includes shading, which is usually one of my favorite parts. Sometimes a sketch will come out looking rad, and trying to style the lines a certain way can be very fun (most prominently: idroa, and a couple places in the stagbells submission), but overall messing around with the colors is my favorite :]
Edited/redrew some of my oldest HK art recently
I stand by the Cloaks are Wings headcanon for both the Pale King and vessels :>
Hello Peridots the amazing artist I am lowkey losing my cupcakes because I did not expect too get randomly spammed with hearts XD. But besides that how are you on this fine night?
I'm good and hope you are too :D
It's...quite a bit past midnight where I am however so I should probably Not Be Active soon
I think your art is cool too though! As, shown by the likes,
today marks the one year anniversary of Dream's End Come True. thank you for reading

Finally downloaded Dishonored 2 on a whim and am Excited
Back at it again at [comparing my favorite video games]
Hollow Knight and Dishonored spoilers below the cut:
--
Dh1 Corvo and Ghost:
-Silent protagonists who gain void-related powers to help them progress. Only the first power is actually required to beat the game, though the others make it much easier.
-Magical abilities are gifted at least partially by a black-eyed god
-Have close relations to a ruler who died after trying to save their kingdom from a pandemic. The sickness is not well understood, even after extensive research, and was brought by a usurper who was jealous/envious of the ruler's power. All attempts at containing the sickness failed, but it's (implied to be) cured in some endings
-The kingdom they leave for a while after the pandemic begins, re-enter, and then traverse is not doing so well, and the vast majority of its inhabitants try to kill them. Many of said inhabitants have lost their minds from the aforementioned disease
-Can kill the usurper late in the game
-Can kill rich people
-Most of their allies die. Can kill allies themselves
-Friends with a kind old dude serving as their main method of long-distance transportation (kind old dude does luckily not die)
-Despite being almost perpetually in contact with it, never actually get the sickness. Their biology (possibly-genetically-immune-serkonan, hollow void being) likely prevents it
-Worlds probably take place in the same time period (according to fans anyway; most human AUs I've seen of HK are at least somewhat inspired by victorian england)
-The name of one popular ship in each of their fandoms involve weapons?? One person in the ship is red, associated with the person who brought the disease, and can be killed by the protagonist (though in HK's case, both members apply to these criteria)
-Their empires/kingdoms call themselves the only ones when there clearly are more civilizations out there
--
Dh2 Emily and Hornet
-Protagonists of sequel games, major characters in the first games and close relatives of the first game's protagonists
-Daughters of royalty and trained to fight (likely from a young age)
-Heirs to the throne of the first game’s kingdom/empire but can’t actually become queens/empresses because Sequel Game Plot gets in the way
-Technically they can die in one of the first game’s endings but no one regards it as canon
-I haven’t actually played Silksong (duh) or Dishonored 2 yet though so this list may get much longer
Forgot about this
I'm planning to do three fake-screenshot-like drawings of gameplay swaps (HK played like BFTES, as shown here, BFTES like UT [probably Kabbu facing off solo against the Beast] and UT like HK [Frisk against Asgore]) because...why not?
I will ~definitely edit this later~ partly because of the pretty obvious difference in the background and not-background (caused by me not knowing exactly what parts of the art style will stay the same?)
Ah, hello Peri! You asked for HK OCs to draw, so here ya go! Sorry if ya didn't want any from me, the guy whose vessel ya recently drew!
Here's Mattick, the rat bastard. He enjoys tormenting Seer by just generally existing.
He's a beheaded ghost moth! The fire and eyespots are light blue, but other than that standard colors for his species!
They're pretty, no?
This turned out messy (ibispaint decided it would be funny to delete my entire lineart folder) and completely different than expected, but regardless he was really fun to draw and I think it turned out nice!
Three different versions:
Wrong colors from before I realized the fire was blue, one with the right colors and the same shading style, and a blue-focused one!
[Start ID. A digital drawing of Minos Prime from Ultrakill, who's wearing a strapless slit dress and sandals of the same deep purple. He faces towards and slightly to the right of the camera, his head is tilted further right. With one hand he gestures in a vague pointing motion, his arm folded and held close to his body. There is nothing in the background, but bracing himself on one arm, Minos is implied to be leaning against something about the height of a countertop. The background is a blank purplish black, save for three diagonal stripes in the colors of the bisexual flag. End ID]
Shading study that quite literally came to me in a dream two weeks ago, after this post apparently beamed itself into my mind
(also a few edits below the cut! they're very slight but whatever :])
[Start ID. Three different versions of the previous drawing. The first changes the tone of the lighting from blue to pink, and similarly the shading from pink to blue. The second replaces the faint black border with pink, purple and blue, syncing with the stripes in the background. The third combines both these changes. End ID]
I was hurrying so I'm not sure if this is the most accurate representation, but I've joined the summary and here are some of my favorite pieces from 2021!

Heya, I'm Peridots, your average digital artist/entomology enthusiast—they/it/he or any pronouns, please! Haven't actually posted much art in quite a while, so be prepared for occasional Bug Facts and other such randomness. Spam likes and such are all appreciated here! Terfs, zionists and the like can turn 180° for free, however! Profile art by original-character-chaos—oooooh looks like someone sent me perfectly pfp-shaped gift art of my sona a little too close to april fools!
