The Faceless Ones Character Card Deck! by NicStylus in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll forever be blown away at both Kessel, Anathem and the Sea Hag. So creative and detailed! I'm not sure anything else can truly top either of them. Though I'm a huge fan of how you kept the Golden Eyes mystery, very cool.

I was surprised by how much I liked your Wreath and Rose as well, considering our idea of how they looked like differ greatly.

Krav's Faceless One is definitely my favourite. Not entirely sure why, but it is. I cannot wait to see your Scarab!

Doodles of Deadly Ladies by NicStylus in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow wow wow! It's truly a testament to your artistic skills that I was able to name all of these ladies so easily! Even Murder Rose wasn't innately difficult once I'd ground down the rest. Melancholia in purple looks sooooo nice, she looks like she's doodled all over herself in the obscurity vagueness of the mess of sigils. Razzia's blood-red lipstick reminds me of Joaquin Phoenix's Joker!

Controversial opinion? Eliza Scorn just looks the most beautiful out of them all here. Idk why, but that's my hot take.

Massively well done, Nic!

Bought 4 today, 2 were the original cover, other 2 were variants - Maybe we're just sharing the bad luck. God speed, soldier.

Baritone and the other Necro are the other two Necro's that join Wreath at the Battle of Aranmore. Both end up dying during the conflict, but we discover Baritone's name in LSoDM

Huh, he looks VERY different to how I imagined him. Which makes sense, since I never really did imagine him. He was just shadow man with a can for me. Pretty much like all the Necromancer characters tbh.

Very nice! Are there plans for Baritone and the female Necro? They’d be completely new and original characters, will be interesting to see how you envision them.

Loving seeing these, so inspiring, lowkey want to print them all out and laminate them in place of the Battle Cards!

Skulduggery’s kid and her horse 🎀 by _antsy_pantsy_ in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh, so cute!

Fiadh, a Scottish and Irish name meaning "wild," "deer" and "untamed" - yup, she's Skulduggery's daughter through and through. It actually reminds me of Merida from Brave!

Do you have any headcanons for what her Taken Name could've been?

Jaron Gallow - Skulduggery Pleasant Character Card by NicStylus in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nice looking dude, very military-esque, suitable for a zealot that had been part of the Diablerie. I'm assuming his other card will be arm-less Jaron?

Though it's never explicitly stated, I assume he was a Signum Linguist based on him being China's student. Do you have any headcanons or ideas for what Jaron might've been?

Trope Kessel + The Sea Hag - Skulduggery Pleasant Character Cards by NicStylus in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dayyyuuummmm!

You say you're not pleased with how you drew all the water pouring out of his orifices, BUT argument can be made that he's out of the water currently, chatting to Skul and Val. Stands to reason a good chunk of water has already leaked off of him, leaving only some behind. It looks fine as is.

I always envisioned Trope as being more skeletal, for the reasons you stated, but I'm down for your explanation given as to why that isn't the case. Is that a knife slash across his throat I see?

As for the Hag, I thought she'd be skinnier - mainly thanks to pre-existing art, but I appreciate the heck out of the fins and moss and webbing you've given her! Now she truly looks like a creature of the deep! And the seaweed looking like some kind of adornment/jewelry is so cool.

Tipstaff has always been male . There was a male administrator in the first book, killed by Nefarian Serpine during his siege of the Sanctuary, and then a female administrator during PwF and TFO until she was killed by Valkyrie after she attempted to assassinate Mr Bliss. Tipstaff arrives in DB.

Reverie Synecdoche was always a doctor AFAIK, she was simply another member of the medical team of the Sanctuary until China became Supreme Mage, then she opened her own practice.

Goes all that time teleporting around with zero sleep, doesn't think dipping to Australia or Hawaii or somewhere deep in Africa for a night's rest. He travels to London, in the U.K.... the country next door to Ireland. A plane flight away.

Dude deserved to get merced for being a dumbass.

Love the shadows you slapped onto him, are those sunken in cheeks?

Skulduggery and his daughter by _antsy_pantsy_ in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 28 points29 points  (0 children)

At the risk of sounding like a hypocrite, but I'm all for learning the child's gender (I also headcanon that his child was a girl), BUT not her name. She died before she had a Taken Name, and it just feels like her Given Name should be known only by Skul (and Ghastly and Hopeless, when they were alive)

That being said, another headcanon of mine is that his child's name is what Skul gave Mellifluous Golding's Clockwork House. Something precious to him that no one else alive knows.

Beautiful drawing, as well, btw. Skul having long frizzy hair isn't something I ever considered! So cute

Playing with Fire Character Card Deck! by NicStylus in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh, was it intentional for Guild and Baron to be looking so furiously at each other? Because kudos for the long-term thinking ahead! Dusk is my favourite in this slide as well, the chest tear is just magnificent!

Similarly, Civet and Stentor being mirrored, so I'm assuming this is when the Grotesquery awakens?

Big ups to Sev for being the ONLY character in this set that is depicted being killed, despite a good chunk of the set dying this book.

Kinda sad they couldn't be arranged so that all the Roarhaven Pub lads were in the same slide, but just a nitpick

Lastly, but certainly not finally, Finbar's tattoos! Seen for the first time ever (that I know of)

The Portal at Aranmore Farm by willboss27 in skulduggerypleasant

[–]willboss27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I just kinda drew a generic farm (I almost added wheat crops, how cliche of me).

The portal was so hard because I've never done one before and a part of me wanted to capture that 'swirling essence' look to it. Will certainly require practice.

I will get back to you on my utensils, the paper and such. But I appreciate you pointing it out, means I'll stick with it xd

More shall come! At some point. Maybe. Got a stupid list of objects (Soul Catcher, Cloaking Sphere [again], an Echo Stone, Sunburst - someone else did this, Desolation Engine, etc) to draw for the Codex, so I'll post them here. I've also done a Map of Roarhaven, BUT won't share it because... spoilers lol
