This that shit I crave
THE SMOOCH HAPPENED SHOW US THE SMOOCH
Narilamb smooch let's go
Part 2 Coming soon??? I sure hope.
If only they held back that smug look. Coulda gotten just a little bit further. But baby steps lol
Well well well, Nari. If it isn't the consequences of your own tsundere actions.
The Lamb just went "bet." and returned what was given, just not to extreme Narinder was ready for. He wasn't braced for what The Lamb had.

My writing and layout for comics isn't good- workin on getting better. : )
I'm sorry if this is too personal but did you had/have any art trauma caused by art teachers in school? And by trauma I mean some aversion to try learning one thing, because art teacher was just a dick. I have something like that with shading and it still holds after 6 years as a adult and I want to break it, but I cannot force myself to try it again and this holds my proggres as a ,,artist" and that's make me smad. I'm sorry once again if this is too personal or too hard to answer
Yup I did! Tho idk if I can call it "trauma" tbh
Oop I kinda went on a rant sorry lol
I studied ceramics in uni but I did have nude art classes and classes that required detailed art projects.
Although most of my uni time was wasted thanks to covid, I did get harrassed by a few of my classmates and my teacher in my last year.
My classmate had said that my art level wasnt good enough to be in this uni and my teacher yelled at me in the middle of class for like a week or two because I refused his ideas for my projects (he had given me the ok on the design before he changed his mind 180 and started pointing and laughing at me with my classmates while i worked on my ceramic project)
I eventually had to give up resisting because I wanted to pass the class and let him do whatever he wanted. (He legit just put clay on top of my design, smoothed it out and that was it in fact here is the design he gave me the ok to, the middle of my project and the way he stopped me)
After this I basicly didnt do anything more for his class, minimum effort. My days in Uni weren't all bad thank god but I was extremely unmotivated.
After I graduated, I didnt really draw or create much until my love for drawing rekindled with Cult of The Lamb! I love this game and Narilamb too much lmao-
But as for something similar to your experience I would say that I used to play the bass and electro guitar in highschool and we had to perform one day which I chickened out from that resulted in the music teacher getting angry at me. I dont play the guitar anymore :/ But my love for music hasnt died and I am using my love for art diffrently!
I would say that even if certain experiences deviates you from some topics, branches of art or people, dont let it kill your whimsy and ideas. You can always try out diffrent things to find something fun like diffrent styles of drawing, shading or no shading, diffrent mediums like digital or traditional, new or old techniques, weird colors or designs. You can always try out whats popular to see if you like it or not as well. You can also consume a lot of art media, educational or entertainment.
There is so many creative things you can try out, you dont have to be stuck on the past and that one shading idea your teacher tried to teach you ır tried to force onto you. I think you can go back to it after trying out many diffrent things to see if it was the technique or the teacher that ruined it for you.
If it was the technique, there are many MANY diffrent ones that you can enjoy!
If it was the teacher, Im not a therapist so idk what would be the right thing to say but healing takes time, sometimes the things people say never leaves you and sometimes you forget it 5 minutes later. You are a person with the ability to change, learn and grow. The only thing that is in your way is your 'will'. If you are willing to change, even if takes a long time, you will change! But if you dont want to, then no one can force you.
Healing and moving on is hard but not impossible. Dont let an asshole teacher get in the way of your growth ❤️

Bishop Weapons
To anyone who reads this, I am curious of your opinion. In terms of signature weapons, Lamb is often assoicated with a short board sword while Narinder is given a Scythe to fit his "Death" title. But what about the other Bishops. While reduced to moral forms, what weapons do you think would become their signature in a combat situation?
Me when I find someone else he hates how the CoTL fandom tries to make The Lamb into a helpless victim:
We could have had the next Griffith but noooooooo…
This. I love all of this and what it has to offer. Yes, my biggest pet-peeve will always be how the fandom designs their lamb to be a victim and exaggerates Narinder.
Anyone else remember this post? >:3
Well I put this up just before the holidays and well, @countjulius did contact me a few weeks ago about setting something up. However due to some... family emergencies, I wasn't able to get around to having the time til now. 😔 However if he does want to set something up, understand I'm going to spam every single last Narilamb artist I can think of, to get all their designs into this one little bit! 😁👍Of course whoever wishes to join, more than welcome if you're interested and read this far.
Also, sending out an special shout-out to @melled42 for even liking the post and recommending it to Sir Julius in the first place. As a thanks I was gonna go full on commission but, knowing how her canon lore is set and me needing to keep my ass in check and not wanting to creep her out with my weird ass request, I think I'll offer either a solid donation (Within reason Goddamnit! 😖) or something like that. Dealer's choice 🙂
Hope this pans out well. I think it would be a fun way to involve as much as the fandom as possible as so many people have very unique, fantastic and interesting designs for their interpretations for their self-inserts and I can't think of a better way of appreciating them. 🤩
Love this dynamic more than I can accurately describe without rambling ❤️🔥
First Dance
This wouldn't get out of my head, so I got it out of my head by drawing it
Alright..... first let's start this off right... before I get super ultraviolet pretentious out this mug....
Now fair warning cuz this will get a little Ranty so TL:DR. Fair warning
Ok with that outta the way, good fucking God, is this the absolute shit! Ugh! Got a little too damn excited reading this and the last few ones. Been waiting and would rather post here on patreon because it seems more trafficked here but.... wow. While melled42 definitely is in my Top 3 favorite artists in this fandom for their art style and character focus. This shit hits me in all the right areas that gets me Ace Ventura levels of excited when reading it. I love how, despite the want of sex, violence and gore, the characters feel real and grounded, a layered just enough so you can understand their growth and struggle while also presenting realistic responses that fit within their characters, given what we know and this, is a nice combination. Cheese aside, I completely adore this because it represents a truth about people that most don't want to accept and saying it might piss people off but I'm gonna;
Each and every single one of us, wants to imagine the idea that our love is boundless, endless, all encompassing and pure. That we love to make other people happy but honestly, that's false or at least, a half truth at best. Most of us who can feel romantic and sexual love, instinctively, despite our natural urges in an attempt to present our love in altruistic manners, deep down inside are seeking some form of validation, comfort, and acceptance from an external force. We see someone, who we only want to see us. Want us. Love us. To have and obtain something and someone that is ours and only ours that will never walk away and will always prioritize us. It is a selfish desire to seek such a form of love from others, to give ourselves meaning, value and purpose and honestly, that's perfectly fine! Its normal. Its probably the reason why so many people love Tsunderes and Yanderes despite the exaggerated extremes portrayed in media. We want someone that will only show us their truest, deepest and most vulnerable sides to their personalty. Gain access to a part of that person no other living person will ever be able to scratch. We want to feel needed, loved and wanted by someone who'd refuse to let us go, even in the face of possible better options, be it looks, personality, or hobbies. For someone to see the significance of who we are, even when we ourselves can't, and this grounded, instinctive trait has probably (in my most biased opinion) has been shown by Mel the best.
The way these two show fear at the concept of expressing their sense of vulnerability to each other, yet the refusal to accept a life where they can't be their absolute and truest selves with one another is fucking peak! For the first time (from my interpretation) Ewen is making a real choice to ve vulnerable, taking something they actually want for themselves, even if they themselves don't fully understand their own desires. They cling to the one person who gave their existence value, who focused solely on them and only them and for a time, could truly understand who and what they were, despite the clear bad blood between them. It shows how loving selfishly can lead to so many negative thoughts of doubt, worthlessness, insecurity (Which is ok for any and all genders to have) which can eat away at someone's mental health. Yet despite this, its the honest statement and open conversation that will ultimately save them from creating that connection with someone they want based on lies or worse, breaking the bond they wanted for so long due to their own preconceived notions on the subject.
These two are like everyone, desires, happiness, insecurities and fears. So many conflicting layers without a true proper understanding of who they are. So many of us are broken in ways we don't want to admit, but still desire to take the shards of our souls, combine them with another's and create a Stained-Glass Mural that will express the beauty of what we are and I fucking love how Ewen and Narinder truly represent this concept both physically through their actions and psychologically through their development. I wish so many other artists here would take from Melled when comes to this. Not just be willing to show a character has fears, but allow their characters to be OPENLY vulnerable with each other. To revel in pain and angst can be fun but is ultimately empty in the face of actual progressive growth and development.
Understand this is only half my thoughts at best and I could keep going but I think I need to lay down cuz I'm a little too damn excited. Remember these are my own personal opinionated thoughts so if anyone disagrees, feel free. But for me; Easily Top 3 artists in Cult of the Lamb hands down.

Bit of a TW on this one at the top
This was a lot of work but I like how it turned out, and its fun doing more horror stuff
next page wip and wips of the rest is up on patr30n
😐😑😐😑😐😑😐
Quite a bit to unpack here but... does give a bit more insight to the "never let you go" line used in the first lore-focused comic. Also explains why Narinder gets his head cut off as well later... somewhat. Wow. 🫠
Bet Narinder is REEEEAAALLY wishing he read Ewen's mind when he had the chance before. Good gravy 😅 Imma need more info before I can go anymore indepth than this. Don't need to make anymore incorrect assessments.
An explanation for the wound on Ewen's, my lamb's neck. I've had this headcannon since first seeing the bishops but it kind of took a life of its own
When you're a power hungry controlling monster but they're way too into it, even for you
patreons got this early
