Orbiting space station
🕑 Added 2024-07-06 21:06:21 +0000 UTCRhaeash [mine/chi's] with Asura [Chi's] discussing things while exiting one of many restaurants on the station as 2 Qorroc's pass by, one is lost and the other is happily texting a pal.
it's quite a large setting actually and has been a load of work just to get to this stage. originally i wanted to paint the chars too since the entire bg is also lineless/painted buuut no
anywho, I made the floor assets for this after doing the initial perspective sketch and all, as well as the door assets--so I'll be able to reuse those textures again at a later date
some details:
atmosphere scrubbing plants
LED striplights for the station during its "night" cycle
real drake language in the real drake font in the bg depicting arrivals
2 very special feathers in rhaeash's hair
part of the map pamphlet is in yiddish
I put napkin dispensers because I thought it made sense
other easter eggs:
Auril's [the tan female in the pic w/teal hair bead] famous hair bead made it into Rhaeash's mane as did some classic granny pearls in her cheek fluff
asura's hair accessories are gifts from Rika
woops forgot to say the origin of this scene..PEELA IS GROOMING MY EYEBALLS SO ...
I was ORIGINALLY making it an alleyway in a space station and an ezrael scene--I sketched ez 2x but wasn't feeling it [shes 2 huge damnit] so I replaced her with the 3 FG chars and it felt a lot better. plus asura has ALWAYS been a main story-line character and Rhaeash is as well though in a sub character role. she's still quite important both politically and in the scientific community.
it was not paid for
neither is it a gift
nothing like that. it was a "my idea isnt working, hey chi how about if i throw you in to see how it looks" scenario. just in case anyone got upset or something..covering my bases here, it's not favoritism or anything, it's 6+yr old story that I'm fiddling with with my best outlet: art
