[Part 1 - Joel / Part 2 - Joey / Part 3 - Kathrine]
I'm ashamed to say I've never actually watched any of Sausage's eps for empires, I'm pretty sure the only content of his I saw was Joey interacting with the Church of the Blood Sheep I think???? But bc of that, this design was so hard 😩 I went with his king skin tho cus I feel it's the most recognizable
I went almost entirely just European, specifically like the royal paintings where they have very wide shoulders. I wanted him to be very square and broad, that he looks strong and immovable.
But, when you look closer, you realize how impractical and bulky he actually is, which hints at how he's egotistical and too prideful for his own good. His only armor/weapons are iron, and everything else is gold, also leaning into that idea.
For the rest of everything, I just leaned into the lore of blood. Every animal except the Blood Sheep can 'give blood', either to the Sheep or to Sausage if he needs a regen. I fought with the idea of sausage not having blood of his own but idk, I kinda want him to just so he can offer to the Blood Sheep
BTW the Blood Sheep constantly pours blood from its soaked wool, it acts like water in the kingdom. And the dogs are a hive mind, connected by blood frfr (I think that's how all blood-related people would be in mythland? Tho maybe it'd also be smthn that requires the Blood Sheep idk)
Since I’ve shown speedpaints in other ones I’ll show his here too fr ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Jimmy knew what the people needed: a pathetic man
Anyway, design process
I used VERY MINIMAL inspo from finnish n Nordic fisherman/general outfits for his outfits, mostly in the use of leather and burlap
For his human design I just wanted him to be dorky and kinda scrappy looking, clearly made or edited by his own hands. He has a knitted cod hat and a hand-woven dyed rope belt that doubles as a fish net, and ofc a bottle or two of slime tying it together
For his fish form. I based the cod head part on a mix of Cod (duh), dunkleosteus, tiger sharks, and minimally on lion fish. The tail is a combo of fins and a shark tail, along with boney scales and sharp spines. He's very tough and durable
Ofc he also grew arm fins and his feet became more creature-like. Crechur
I also imagine that, while not immune to damage, he's very resistant to it (and resistant to cold :))
Also this is HC-y stuff but I imagine that Jimmy, as a sea God, represents very different things than Lizzie. Lizzie represents more of the Idea of the ocean, it's vast power and danger, the storms it makes, etc
Whereas Jimmy represents the interconnectedness of sea life and the life cycles, I'd even argue he's lowk a land-god rather than specifically a sea God and I KNOW cod are salt water but. He's so freshwater coded srry abt it 😛 he is a being of change first and foremost
Even tho he's a being of change tho he dislikes industry as he believes it is inorganic and ruins natural effort and stuff. Same with magic, there is nothing a spell can do that your own hands can't do better. Also magic hurt Scott so he don like it 😔

AHHHH! I love this AU so much! I've had the exact same idea to write something with Tubbo as the Sky God and Tommy as the Sun God for so long! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought of this as a good AU idea, since I live for Deity AU's! Amazing art! <333

thinking about a god AU, I dunno! The concept of Tubbo = Sky, Tommy = Sun is fun to mess with!
Basically what happened.
Clover's lil tippy tappin' feet are the cutest darn thing. And I never noticed how the feistyj five all have teal bands around their hats.
Princess Yue of the Northern Water Tribe
Finally in the Northern Water Tribe at the end of Book 1! We meet the wonderful Princess Yue and shenanigans ensue. I wanted the Northern and Southern Water Tribes to have related yet distinct tastes in fashion. Yue is still wearing a fantasy combination of Inuit/Yakut/Mongolian clothing but with a little bit of Great Plains Indigenous Regalia. Oh and her very important hair reference to Chinese "fairy maidens" (It's a Tang* Dynasty hairstyle associated with minor deities).
(Reoccurring disclaimer for this art series: This is for fun, they are inspired by the show's costume designs and then extrapolated out with historical fashion or things I think will be fun to draw. These are not meant to be accurate, only inspired. I hope you like them!)

Over three years ago, I started the pretty ambitious project of drawing fanart for every Tubbo Dream smp stream (that I could find). Here’s fanart for the twenty fifth stream
The gofundme was shut down in a mass purge of Palestinian gofundmes, but you can donate to the to the newly made paypal here
Abdul Aziz, who was born in Gaza, has a condition called Hirschsprung's disease, which affects the nerves related to muscles controlling the passing of waste. He had to get a colostomy at 20 days old. The family is now in Egypt, and have been trying to raise money for surgery that would give a more permanent solution,... but five days ago post-surgery complications developed with bleeding at the site of surgery.
The surgery for a more permanent improvement will cost her 20,000 euro, and will make it so that Abdul Aziz no longer needs to gets colostomy. So far, she has raised almost 2,000 dollars. However, part of that just had to go to the emergency surgery five days ago from the bleeding. And the gofundme being shut down has also impaired fundraising.
Please donate to the paypal! I know it may not be as much a serotonin rush without a progress bar, but it is still important.
