What I freaking live for!

mwah mwah mwah

Part 1: link

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;

We Love Selfishly

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.

Narilamb comic "Truth" 3/4 (page 1) (page2)

ROD au masterpost

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

This that shit I crave

THE SMOOCH HAPPENED SHOW US THE SMOOCH

Narilamb smooch let's go

Part 2 Coming soon??? I sure hope.

Narilamb comic "Truth" 1/4

previous comic 1 2

ROD au masterpost

Finally starting on the big boy. I keep experimenting with these vertical compositions, despite knowing I'll have to chop it up to post it on most sites :')

next page and wips of the rest is up on patr30n

This. All of this. Good to see the artist that got me into the Fandom is doing ok.

Let the DLCs arc begin

Continuation to this

For now, gonna say Narinder shoulda saw the writing on the wall for sure. But I'll chock it up to to sheer desperation and social isolation. Ewen was their only ticket out at the time and despite all his power, he's shown he can't see the future consequences of his decisions

Big Narilamb comic "Distant " p 1/3

Since these are so big doing them one at a time. This one is mostly flashback so it works alone

Driving 10 hours tomorrow, so its going up early so I'll hopefully have comments to keep me entertained.

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?

I just gonna keep reposting it lol

IM DONE FINALLY FINNNAAALLLY A MONTH AND SOME CHANGE AND IVE DONE IT

it was painful I haven’t made a comic in a very long time, I’ve learned so much and my non existent self esteem says it could be better but what ever it’s done I’m done : )

This was the di$ joke I was talking about probably disappointing could have been dirtier I guess lol

This should probably be my last close up shot from the comic, I think I captured the emotion I wanted well

The quality is a bit off but oh well

It’s kinda funny but I still don’t feel like I have a set design for him yet I really any actual character in the game ( other than my oc that are in my save file)

Me on my way to irritate my bay be like

Not actually a ship

This close up looks odd to me

He irritated lol

I was away for a week but now my suffering continues 

I’m surprised I haven’t given up yet but I finish a whole page

I wasn’t done yet but the body suit shading is giving me life

it’s funny this is how I experimented with his design even more, it’s still a work in progress tho but like I’m fairly happy with the result,

I feel like it’s been like almost four months and my indecisive butt has tortured me through all of it 

I almost got design for all my disciples and is in progress of trying to fix my lamb design and yellow cat, I’m trying to remember that it’s supposed to be fun and need to relax more for my personal unrealistic self expectations

Also just spicy boy i wonder how the lamb would react to this >: )

Bro id love to but like it wouldn’t make sense, curvy king, I feel like at least in my mind its kinda hard for a lot of them to be curvy from like the food problems but also I can’t argue a few of my COTL OC are curvy but like it’s soooo hard tho, because like it wouldn’t make sense but I love having different body types so much, I did go with the underweight route for him tho, I just feel like at least in my head he doesn’t take care of his body well, like not really eating, I am a Nair lamb sucker, I’m viben with the odd relationship except they have differences depending on the time like, I like the idea of him actually becoming a healthy weight from being in a relationship with lamb, and the lamb actually getting some rest ( they may not actually need it but it’s like mental exhausted, it’s still probably a bit toxic, but I like to think it’s not all bad

If I drew an AU Nair in my style, what body type should I draw him having? Like twig, muscular, a mix, scrawny?

THIS IS SO CUTE, GET SCARF BI-

Aw :3

ok chat here's leshy

Ok ok I had this idea and so I drew it 😂🤣🤣😂

I am not sorry for this! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

i know there’s more than this out there but it really is incredible that people will look at a fictional character someone else wrote and collectively say “I will write you a hundred happy endings.”

Outing myself as a cotl fan after being a player for almost 3 months lmao

Familyyy 👯‍♀️👯‍♀️
