Hues of June Week 1 · 7:43pm Jun 10th, 2023
That's right, it's time for another art month, this time featuring a bit of character art for the Sunset Archives!
Hues of June 1a: Vast!Washouts
A trio of daredevil stuntspeople and extreme sports enthusiasts, now empowered by the Vast to pull off the most high-flying, hair-raising stunts with ease – and to provoke anyone and everyone around them into trying the same, generally with much less pleasant results.
Hues of June 1b
TARDIS Tarot: 5 of Cups - Fitz Kreiner in Earthworld, aka the one where Fitz's pants fall down in the middle of a pitched battle to the death against an Elvis impersonator, and it's all a metaphor for his growing existential crisis.
Hues of June 2a - Extinction!Lyra
The world is such a fragile thing, perpetually roiling and shifting and breaking, and in ways small and large, the world is always ending for someone, tearing down everything we know and recreating it as stranger and more hostile. Who better to pick up the pieces at the end of the world than our local anthopologist?
Hues of June 2b - Graveyard Shift
Cover for an anthology some of my friends are working on.
Hues of June 3a: Corruption!Chrysalis
(spoilered for insects, mild body horror)
You’re a vile one, Chrysalis
You’ve got termites in your smile
You have all the maternal instinct of a rotting, starving maw, Chrysalis!
I wouldn’t touch you with a 39-and-a-half foot pole!
Hues of June 4a - Equestria Girls-ified Jonathan Sims
Jon made it to Somewhere Else. Unfortunately, his body didn't quite survive the trip...
Hues of June 4b - Nema Tode
(spoilered for insects, mild body horror)
My friend’s Monster of the Week Character, playing the Parasite (formerly the Crooked). She’s full of sunshine, and also worms.
Hues of June 5a - Hunt!Fluttershy
If you go down in the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise
Hues of June 5b - Corruption!Peri
Double-dose of TMA crossovers today, with Corruption Avatar Perpugilliam Brown! This probably wasn’t one of the post-Mindwarp timelines, but honestly who the fuck knows at this point.
Hues of June 6a - Lonely!Wallflower Blush
“Maybe I was right the first time. Maybe it would just be for the best if I were to… fade away.”
Hues of June 6b
Widdershins Tarot - Nora Fenton (and the Hotel Gula) as the Tower!
Hues of June 7a - End!Apple Bloom
Everyone has a destiny, a place and time and a means by which they will End. The nature of it may change, but the end result never will. From the moment that you are born, you bear its mark.
Hues of June 7b - Mysterious Planet Dance
Hues of June 8a - Spiral!Ditzy Doo
No Breekon or Hope meant that the entities needed to find a new delivery service for their cursed artifacts. Neither rain nor fog nor flame nor gloom of night nor potholes nor swarms of bees nor circus clowns nor watchful eyes nor nuclear winter nor big piles of meat nor spiderwebs nor knives nor wolves nor death itself shall stop this post officer in the completion of her rounds!
Hues of June 8b - Daisy
My Monster of the Week Character, playing the Monstrous. She’s the team mom, and also a demon who runs the local occult shop (and she may have been slightly inspired by certain postal pony, but my rpg group doesn't need to know that).
Hues of June 9a - Corruption!Cadance
(once again, spoilered for insects, mild body horror)
Ah, Cadance, whose heart is open to all. Is it any surprise what came to make its home there (and stomach, lungs, and bones)?
Hues of June 9b
TARDIS Tarot: 7 of Swords - Vislor Turlough in Mawdryn Undead, aka the one where he got hired to assassinate the Doctor and proceeded to fail at doing so for the rest of the season.
Hues of June 10a - Web!Adagio Dazzle
So sweetly sings the siren, soporific and so slow,
Her pendant catches golden lights and seems almost to glow
In the club she captivates the clients with her song
And stokes jealousy in those who’ve not been looked at for too long
Her voice cuts through your mind, her tune is so entrancing
It’s not ‘til much too late you’ll find on what string you’ve been dancing.
Hues of June 10b - Alkira
My friend’s Monster of the Week character, playing as the Divine. She’s been sent on a mission from Mom to stay with her Aunt Daisy and ensure that events unfold according to prophecy.
-6&7
Awesome!
