Rigel time! Since Rigel is a member of the Royal Gaurd (he is forced into it because he’s from the Great House of Valeriana) he starts the story in uniform. I’ve been trying to add a Mexican vibe to the story, since I am Mexican and you don’t see a lot of Mexican fantasy stuff! But with that in mind

Okay I started doing this a year ago I think but I never posted it, but of course Patreon is the best place for this, now that I’m back up and running!! I wanted to have an official character line up of the main cast, so we can see how they all look as a group as well as establish base outfits, colo

Hi everyone!! I said it would only take me a couple days, but then I decided to add even more on to it.... it was originally just going to be the first part lmao,, I still have to add backgrounds and effects however I have to learn how to use after effects before that can happen and I wanted to shar

Hey everyone!! As you might have seen on Instagram, I got COVID last week and have been recovering and traveling, but I’ve been working again the past couple days. I’m almost done with the roller skating animation, but since it became a lot longer than intended, I will probably on,y be doing 3 anima

Here is a comic featuring “flustered Rigel”! Also this is an excuse to show you all this idea I just recently had for Orion to have these markings on his body. Like he says, they’re like raised skin so you would be able to feel them if you touched them. They are focused on areas where the bone is cl

Okay, couple things here!! Dump of Rigel drawing because I was trying to warm up drawing him because I am going to animate him laughing! Once I feel good drawing him again I decided to change the way in which I draw Karia’s hair (if you noticed in the mermaid sketch with her) this month— I just want

Here is the other half of the sketch requests! I don’t have a specific day for Rigel’s birthday yet, I’m leaning towards he is either a Leo or an Aries lol (or maybe Aquarius?) but I imagine he is very used to big celebrations on his birthday (he is the ~Chosen One~ after all) however, no one in the

Hey everyone!! Sorry for not being able to update you all, this month has been insane!! We finally finished our film, we finished school, and then we graduated!! As you can imagine it’s been super chaos, and things just started to calm down this week, so I’m planning to get back on a full schedule a

First part of the sketch request! For context, Orion is a chronic sleep walker, he will often get up and try walking around as soon as he falls asleep. Rigel is a chronic cuddles when he’s sleeping so... they’re kind of perfect for each other in a weird little way lol I don’t even know what would ha

https://youtu.be/26bRwTdM_JM This is the comic I had in mind when I animated Orion laughing lol Basically, Rigel is not normally A Funny Guy™️, but he doesn’t usually care about that, he makes himself laugh when he wants to, Orion, however, loves to laugh, so even if the joke is bad, Orion will find

Took me a minute on this one because hahaha so many characters 😭 and we got some sleepy cuddling at the end! I was trying to do the gender bend request but for some reason I struggled a lot with it and I didn’t like anything that I did, so I’m sorry! Maybe in the future I can try again and hopefull

I got the next part coming tomorrow!! This one is flustered Rigel, because that’s always really fun!!

Here we got kisses for the prompts “worship” and “breathless” hahaha these were really fun 👀 Okay I’m working on getting the sketch requests up so they will be up tonight or tomorrow!! Hope you all enjoy these until then!

I’m having an unhealthy amount of fun rendering now, I can’t help it lol Really love Orion’s little outfit here (low key inspired by the insanely good fashion of the Ferengi from DS9 😬😬） I’m going to be do more painting today after I complete my background painting quota for the day !!

I got sick over spring break, isn’t that just the way? I’m not allowed back in school until I get better of course so I’ve had a little more time to make some indulgent art!! (This is from the kiss prompt: Chaste and Belly kiss) I think I figured out a rendering style that is doable for me that I li

I don’t have a lot of free time to work on personal sketches, but hopefully it will be better this month! I was really into a disheveled, possibly even beat up Orion this month.... don’t know why but it was just the mood y’know??

Little comic based on Grace’s sketch request haha I don’t know who is a bigger disaster, Rigel or Orion??

More kiss prompts!! The first one is like a little continuation from the Valentine’s Day prompt hahaha I’m still working on these so expect more in the coming week!! I’m posting the sketch requests right after this one!!

(Lol you all might have seen me post this accidentally it last night sorry about that lol) I really loved Aaron’s sketch request Valentine’s Day idea so made it a little comic !! I thought about it a lot, and we all know Orion special favor towards all things sweet, but I had this idea that maybe ch

Starting on the Kiss Prompt drawings!! Have a good time, nothing like self indulgent art to boost morale during stressful times!! Having fun compiling my sketches and experimenting with coloring haha, I’ve got more stuff coming!! Thank you for everyone submitting sketch requests and kiss prompt requ

I imagine that the academy Rigel goes to is very elite so they expect everyone to dress very professional, except Orion had no formal clothes before going there and therefore has no idea how to tie a tie. Very unfortunate for him..... Next post, I want o do a little dress up with AU Orion with some

Hey!! I’m so sorry I’ve been a little MIA, I actually got sick and wasn’t able to do much for awhile there, but I am very much recovered, now! I have a lot of posts for you all queued up and I will give you all the posts I promised last week this week. Here are the Sketches that were requested in De

I went back to my good ole 4B graphite pencil this month, was planning on some drawings I might clean up for Instagram, as well as some more character designing. Almost done with this sketchbook! I’ve drawn something on every page but not every page is full, might go back in and continue till every

I didn’t expect this last comic to end up so long, I was hoping to keep it under 6 but it became 10 instead. Since it will take me a bit longer to finish, I’m posting the WIP now without the dialogue and color and backgrounds, but I will finish it and upload the final version next week. Also expect

Hey !! I wasn’t planning on posting today but I wanted to share this little doodle I did while I’m wrapping up finals lol I had this idea of Rigel putting his head in Orion’s lap for Orion to pet his hair,, I did the sketch in my sketchbook and got the second drawing as my first pass,,,,, and as I w

A little flashback to a time when Rigel was a much happier boy. I’m also happy to show a tiny bit more to Rigel’s parents Angelica and Aconite!! I’m almost done with all my finals for school but I still have a week and a half left!! After that I’m still going to be working on thesis after break but

Mostly did a lot of planning for the comics in my sketchbook this month, as well as some little comic stuff that I eventually want to make digital!! Been watching Star Trek Deep Space 9,, I’m in love with it the comfort it brings me is insane,, Just out of curiosity, do any of you here like/watch St

Here are the sketch requests from the beginning of the month!! Tomorrow I’m posting the schedule along with some fun little small updates!! See y’all then!

Here is part 2!! I went a lil crazy and added 2 more pages :) I hope you all like it!!! I went really crazy this month hahahaha This comic concludes tender November. It’s been really fun, and even though it was a lot of work I feel like I really understand better my limits and how far I can push my

Here is part one of the last exclusive comic for this month! It’s sick Orion/ Doctor Rigel! (Again sorry for my quick and fast backgrounds, one day I’ll have more time for them.) As you probably remember, Rigel has some training as a physician from his family (however he is not fully trained) Also,

(CW: Drinking) It’s finally here!! Sorry it’s a day later than planned, I didn’t know how long it was going to be so I didn’t plan very well ahead,, I know the last one is going to be long so I did plan ahead for that one lol You might remember Orion is a very happy, party drunk, so I was thinking a

Hey!! So I was supposed to upload the “Making of Orion” video today but unfortunately I had to stay up late finishing a project and so I couldn’t finish editing it in time 😔 Hopefully I will finish editing tomorrow and will upload tomorrow or Monday. As an apology, I’m sharing a process video of my

The theme for these comics is just focusing in on those sweet slow burn moments where both of them are stupid and in love,, but sometimes don’t even realize it, yet (Orion) I’m really excited for the next two comics, as I saved the best idea for last. Im also excited because I feel like these comics

Hey!! Here is the sketches I did in October! I started a new sketchbook this month and I really have been enjoying it! I really like sketchbooks that have some sort of pattern to them, I prefer the dotted sketchbooks, but I have been really into the graph paper ! I also like that it’s yellow toned l

I actually planned this comic before the haunted house one was a thing, but I thought since it’s a bit sweeter, it would nice as a Patreon exclusive comic :) I think Orion actually does like scary movies, but he finds the killer movies more entertaining (like Halloween) and is actually scared of sup

Rigel is definitely one of those guys who’s like “heh I’m not scared of anything 😏😎” and then loses his mind over worms or butterflies (yes he is freaked out by both actually) Orion is definitely the digging in the dirt for worms for fun kind of guy.

Okay, took me a second but finished it!! I had a lot of fun with this comic and figuring out all their responses to something scary,, Orion is obviously flight, Karia is fight (of course) Rigel is usually not scared but he is susceptible to jump scares Will and Juniper don’t really have a fear respo

I’ve actually been able to finish this one before the day I post it !! And I added a little extra just for you all 💞 this was actually one of my first drawings that blew up on my Instagram, and I remember being happy but also like “wow of course it’s the one I put the least amount of effort into” y

Watched Venom 2 this month and been kind of obsessed with it again,, just really good stuff.. so I did this!! I’m sorry I’m posting this late, for some reason this took me all day to get myself to finish it lol I can’t wait for the 4th and final costume post,, already have some very good sketches go

Back again with this AU, but this time I bring you the other band members!! Finally lol Rigel trying to sneak around and secretly go to one of Orion’s bands concerts to check it out but unfortunately for him, Orion has Rigel Radar and spots him almost immediately. I so desperately want to animate Or

Here Is the first half of the early access comic I’ll be posting on Instagram for Halloween! Orion is one of those people who will lie through their teeth to convince every one they aren’t scared even though everyone can see it clear as day. And Juniper is probably the least scared but she understan

Damn, Orion... so rude 😔 lol Orion loves to dance, so whenever there is music playing and especially if people are dancing, he’s gonna start dancing, too, As we saw in the last one, Rigel knows how to dance in a very trained, classical way, and does not know how to actually just dance to fun music

I’m very surprised how I am able to keep up on this challenge so far hahaha! But this one was fun, designing clothes you know,, I didn’t intend for them to be a bit matching but the colors just felt the best for me so matching little outfits for the boys (I know next prompt is also dancing but for s

Ok I was having a hard time trying to chose which costumes to do next… Merlin & Arthur from BBC Merlin were already on my mind and then Xime planted in my head to do a comic that recreates the net scene from season 5 and I— I really went off with this one but in my defense it was a coping mechanism

Since I can’t really make a family portrait with my characters from Now & Forever (since they’re immortal and their families are long gone) I made this little drawing of older Orion and Rigel for all of you!! They look very happy :)

I have posted a family portrait on my Instagram for Rigel’s family a while back now when he was a baby, but I wanted to come back to that and draw him again with his parents but when he’s a bit older. I would say he’s about 10 in this picture. I also finally came up with their names! Rigel’s father

Ok I’m still deciding on which costumes I will do next but I decided I did want to do the Star Trek decision since I love Star Trek and I’m actually going to a Star Trek exhibition this weekend!! Star Trek TOS is one of my favorite series of all time, and I actually was inspired by Star Trek when I

Day 4 of Sawah’s OCtober: Go-To outfit. I don’t think I really went into detail about this before, but Rigel is actually apart of the Hemlock family’s Royal Guard. He is actually a general, so his outfit is a bit more fancier than the average Royal Gaurd. The Hemlocks are the ruling family of the Hu

Just a cute little sketch for you all, I think tomorrow I will post some little animation clips I’ve been sitting on for awhile, It’s almost October though!! I’m excited !!

Ok I think this will be the last one I do that’s early access!! I’m going to do a little more exclusive stuff later this week before October hits, hopefully! I also have a fun possibility if I can finish it and find the time this weekend, I might possible film a little exclusive sketchbook tour?? If
