FOR REDWALL!!!!!!
Been wanting to draw something related to Redwall for agesss. I haven't actually read the books, but I've seen the Nelvana TV series and heard some of the audiobook. Also aware Netflix was making a new show (Please please please don't cancel it Netflix please I'm begging you)
Redwall means a lot to many people, and it's really influenced my art, so I'll consider this piece a sort of love letter to it! Hope you like this painting! Enjoy enjoy!!
These make me ill /pos
Redwall art envisioned as an 80's animated film look. (Milt Kahl / Don Bluth) --- I know nothing abt Redwall. I havent read the books and know very VERY little of its lore. Years ago I remember seeing a tv series but never finished it.

So it's been a hot second since I took a break from my full series reread, but I found myself once again thinking about Outcast of Redwall and the raw deal that Veil Sixclaw got.
What kills me is that before the poisoning, the one thing Veil got in trouble for--the only thing, in fact--was stealing. This kid didn't even get into fights, he just stole food from the kitchens, which as Bryony points out is normal Abbey kid behavior. Another character shoots back that stealing is something most kids outgrow implying that the fact that Veil hasn't is suspicious, which is frankly a wild thing to say to the great grand-daughter of Gonff the Mousethief.
(In a kinder version of events, the adults in Veil's life might have shaken their heads with long-suffering fondness and remarked that he was following in his adopted ancestor's footsteps.)
The whole point of Redwall is that it's the woodland utopia where no one goes hungry and everyone has what they need, which is why kids stealing pies off the windowsill is no big deal... except when Veil does it, apparently. Veil's the one that gets physical punishment when he's suspected of stealing--not even proven! I can't recall off the top of my head any incidents in the rest of the series of corporal punishment in Redwall beyond idle threats that the kids know not to take seriously. But Veil gets scrutinized from the moment Redfarl and Skipperjo pick him up out of the mud and they and Bella look at this literal infant and say "oh yeah, he's gonna be evil for sure."
And then a thought occurred to me: it's generational trauma.
Most of the characters in Outcast are two generations removed from the characters in Mossflower. Bella of Brockhall is in both books. Verdauga and Tsarmina are still within living memory. Until the end of Outcast, as far as she knows, Bella lost her entire family to vermin warlords. Mossflower opens on a scene in which a ferret kicks in the door of a family of subsistence farmers, threatens their children with slavery, and takes all their food as taxes leaving them with none for the winter--and the Stickles were the last holdouts. The other farmers in the area had already run off to join the resistance at that point, so this kind of treatment was normal.
And we're left with a close-knit society of people who've grown up with this shared history, with a venerated authority figure who still carries the scars and memories of what they lost--and suddenly another warlord comes within a hairsbreadth of discovering the peaceful society they built in the aftermath, and leaves behind a starving neglected baby whose first impression is eating frogspawn in the mud and biting his rescuers while being the spitting image of the warlord they just narrowly avoided.
All of that gets thrown into this caustic mixture of fear and paranoia that gets projected onto a literal baby and results in their completely out of pocket response to a child taking food from the kitchens in the We Share Everything Abbey.
It also might explain why Bryony, who's young enough to be three generations removed and may have been born after most of the survivors of Kotir had already passed, is the only one who isn't scared and suspicious of Veil on sight.

Okay I know this isn’t Redwall but I gotta be obsessed with this on main for a hot second. Inkheart is also one of my favorite series of all time and this is absolutely gorgeous
New bind is a rebind of one of my favorite childhood books (and series). I actually wanted to throw this in the fire bc the HTV took me FOUR fucking hours, but overall it turned out neat.
A totally real screenshot of a Redwall RPG game
Yeah I stole the UI from Atlus games. Also I stole the background from RPG Maker.

Commission of Lord Brocktree from the Redwall series (with a custom weapon) for a client on Instagram. This was so much fun. :)
Thinking about that post talking about Martin and Tsarmina being foils of each other
Martin with woodlanders: the "quiet kid" of the group. Compliments everyone's skills. Just glad to be here.
Martin when there's something resembling vermins on the horizon: Let the world burn!
The funny thing is that from my childhood I remembered Martin the Warrior as this self-isolated stoic hero. Quiet and calm. Mostly. But he is actually as unstable as Tsarmina. Ready to yell and wreak havoc at any sign of danger. Why didn't I remember this? When I re-read books I was like why are you doing this you are only making it worse!!! 80% of the time.>w< But it's more fun this way.
I'm re-reading Mossflower now. And I feel like talking about the characters and sketching them. But I'm not sure if it's worth spending time on. This fandom looks pretty dead to me. But I still love my crazy dangerous mice!
I can be normal about Vilaya (lie)
