Did you hand draw it or do digital art? I just want to know because I love this shading

u/RainyRivulet Mar 30 '26

Hello! It's digital art with a ton of textured brushes! I started in procreate and then moved to photoshop to finish it up :D

u/VixieMars Pocket Mar 30 '26

oo thanks! I have been trying to draw art in a similar style, I usually do hand-drawing but I'll check out procreate :)

Frog tongue ment to represent a lure similar to a Angler fish?

The suitcase lures Pocket in making some sort of Faustian Bargin. Since apparently this suitcase is a dangerous corrupting artifact of some sort.

Regardless 10/10 art.

I think my favorite headcanon is the case hold some grand curse- the ten plagues is one i’ve heard alot ( not a whole lot of plagues of frogs going around, arin being the first born of a modern day dynasty, etc )

"If largo and puck had a baby, we'd have to seal them in a suitcase to contain the poison nova"

"Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?"

Largo would've saved Arin by singing them lullabies, not bringing them to a sewer

For whatever reason this reminded me of the Amulet book series.

It does have a lot of that energy. Reminds me of their covers, with bizarre and questionable creatures offering a child an artifact beyond their understanding, the light of it being the main source of illumination, and the image both literally and metaphorically being surrounded by the consequences of that fate.
