Far: By what means, by Imperial Grace Be you here, perhaps, to run the race Of life knee-deep in scum and that doth Protest to the guard and find me without cloth Seeking to take what thy kin have held thus truly In times of blood and death, ugliness and beauty That, passed on upon, rallies to it's name - Heirloom That, in poverty we lived in but one damp room But still, whether accompanied by the spirits of the Dunmer Or the Divines divinity, I care not - 'tis not the matter For the ill-smothered sot whose lair lieth in the sky Does drain his treasury and yet he says "I'll bleed you dry" One way or another, that he shall promptly do For now I am lamented - I'll have to sell my shoe For now, against Zenithar's wishes some cad calls Against the Divine "Thou shall not steal" - the walls Of his soul collapses in Oblivion's marbl'd gates For gone has my security gone and so too I to a buri'd state.
Ohhhh, this thread! Yes! God it is terrifying to see old stuff I posted...so let's do it again so future me isn't disappointed.
Hi, I'm Avron and I doodle sometimes. Here's a WIP of me trying to learn how to draw with my tablet; it's my ESO main.Here he is again more cartoony; this was the first thing I ever did on the tablet, apparent from me not knowing how to use the tools to color, hah. And here's a warm up sketch I did of the Tharn from ESO. I feel compelled to make it into something glorious.
I actually am looking into taking real art classes in the months to come, which I am pretty excited about. It'll be really cool to see how my stuff evolves when I learn some skills that I am missing.

Excellent drawings! You did really well on your first attempt with a tablet!
Here's my a few months old, cliche love poetry similar in style to british metaphysical poetry. I entitled the whole tome Starmakers. The second poem netted me getting a higher grade during this examination session, but alas, I received the highest grade possible at university level without it, so I've only got an exclamation mark by the grade. The last poem is unfinished.
Spoiler:
Orion’s Pearls
All the stars in your eyes, Through your pupils shining, Compare not to the nebular beauty, Concealed within your irises.
Clouds cold as ice, Yet warmth emanating, To take joy in them it is my duty, As endless lie within them blisses.
Excellence they reflect, Only seen when one is dreaming, In white void submerged, Clouds forming whirls.
Two comets perfect, With starlight gleaming, From Orion’s Belt they emerged, Two flawless pearls.
Spoiler:
The Brightest of the Stars
Throughout space far and wide Among countless shining stars, Two celestial bodies feelings can’t hide An argument of lovers, Venus and Mars.
In between their fiery battles, Earth, With its patches of green and blue, To mere mankind gave birth, And let it live without any clue.
On a rock by its star lost am I, But my star I see, is you. Your shine pleasing to the eye, Together a nova we will do.
In this gleam will pale Venus and Mars From our love will be born the brightest of the stars.
Spoiler:
Fading Light
If our Sun will fade out And we shall perish at once, I will still remember, Thousands of suns I had felt, With your every touch.
If our Sun will fade out And we shall perish at once, My heart with stardust ember Enkindled will melt, Your shine means so much.
If our Sun will fade out And we shall perish at once, One last time I will ask For your love, however shy, And my spirit you shall receive.
If our Sun will fade out And we shall perish at once, In your gleam I will bask Forsaking the blackened sky, And your love will make me live.
Spoiler:
Planewalking
Out of the space deaf and blind With countless resonating strings woven, I can’t put at ease my mind, Beyond planes of reality cloven.
Thrown into black pit my body suffers, Yet still, my spirit endures Even though my every limb falters, My heart withstands tortures.
It is a strange power which gives me strength, Constantly bringing me to you, Able to cut planes at any length Between dimensions, across and through.
Defeated lies the void, that separated you and me, By the might of love, as pure as it can be.

Lightshade
To describe you, I will need to hue my whole universe Taking the star paint - no worse, I will start with golden gloom of the moon, Matching it with azure heart of the noon, and crimson flames of all the suns, A fiery comet I will stop at once, taking its tail of rainbows and sparks To adorn it with cosmic marks, and wrap as a band of emeralds.
Wow, Snehk, those are beautiful poems (cliche and all!)! I love the star/universe motif; you've done some wonderful justice to a very grand theme. You've managed to paint some really beautiful imagery in these.
I love "Lightshade." But this line?

Thank you! I always love to hear opinions about my works, they give me a lot of motivation, especially when they're as favourable as Yours!
After a few months of break, I decided to move on and finished "Lightshade!"

Using a prism, I will cut and spread the length of a wave To receive shades of a manner more subtle than brave: silvery droplets of falling rain, Daybreak arising star’s rosy stain, and all the pigments of tender light, Ingraining the canvas of petals bright, in all of the flowers around my world I will engrave your person pearled, so it will forever remain with me there.
My whole universe, touched with the shades of light most true Is the only thing I can give to you.

Thank you all! I want to write some more poems to make the tome more complete, explore the universe further in them, maybe write something sad for a change.

Thanks! Now for something completely different, here's a quick doodle and my incomplete attempt to turn it into a 3D model. I'll probably scrap the model and start it anew anyway.

Those doodles are excellent!
This one took longer than expected, because I started writing it in Middle English (checking Wiktionary just in case) and rewritten it to modern equivalent halfway through.

It is your saunter, fortune in late lives of ours Giving to us en masse.
