Hi, I made a skin tone chart for me to colour pick from. Obviously, lighting and other environmental factors can impact your colours, as well as screen colour, but feel free to use it if you fond it helpful!
New painting ⚔️
I painted Wyll in a single sitting (if you don't count the 'fresh eyes after sleep' adjustments. I'm so happy with how he turned out 🥹🥹
Do I want to paint Jaheira a million more times now? Yes. Absolutely.
Tagging my actual art account tho with this one since it's a completed portrait:

This isn't the worst party venue invitation... we've decided to stream for my birthday! It's last minute, in 6 hours, but I hope some of you can join us 🥰
I wish BG3 had a pop-up before night-time cutscenes that was like "Hey! A cutscene is about to be triggered. Would you like to put your tav back in their day clothes, or would you like to negotiate demonic contracts in pink pyjamas?"
@itsfistingtime
I love Karlach's little dancey dances. The other night I had the scene where Rapheal shows Astarion's scars in a co op game, and the whole time just had Karlach vibing in the doorway, looking in the opppsite direction 😂
Full disclosure: I was genuinely so nervous sharing Candy here. She can be a lot, and she's only been used in a very small private group.
And then she basically built herself an army.
I made this cute little astarion painting reveal and the other app hid it for being 'low quality, unoriginal content' so I hope you guys like it at least 💕💕💕
I want to explore Skadi's character a bit more tonight! So I'm doing a double thread:
✨️ ask me anything
✨️ 1 like = 1 fact
Skadi abandoned her Nightwarden post and, with it, her devotion to Lolth. She found peace in the wild and learned the ways of a tundra druid.
The storytelling aspect:
Candy and Astarion have an unhealthy and short romantic history, but now they're besties and a package deal.
Gale was a surprise. Didn't even know they were dating until Withers told him.
"You have a girlfriend."
"Do I? How marvellous! Who is it?"

#BaldursGate3
one year anniversary, I'd like to share some of my favourite photos I've taken in the game. Even with no freecam, the virtual photography possibilities are beautiful!
(12 photos, click on them to see them all)
Okay, obviously I curated the photos to show her journey. She's still sweet. Here are some of the photos I got within the Mind Flayer Colony, just like the last photo.
I feel like, even though it's literally the same character model, you can see the changes in Candy through her adventure already (up to the mind flayer colony)
This is the official thread of Candy lore! It has been a long time coming.
She's been around for a decade and has been shaped across multiple settings, places and people. Sharing her publicly has been nerve-wracking but your response to her has been amazing, so thank you 💕h
first tav vs. recent tav
Brother and sister 😁 so, the Hela photo isn't actually the current Hela I'm playing. I started the game by playing through a friend who streamed it for me, and I chose to play Hela.
My decisions gave her ✨️anxiety✨️
Since she's new, I'd love to do this for Angrboða! Both to introduce her to you guys, and also to make me think about parts of her I haven't yet.

Your Tav/Durge and their partner(s) have been invited to a Ball! What kind of clothes will their partner(s) choose for them?
Gale would include her in a commissioned dress that matches his formal robes. He would have the flowers, she would have his colour palette 🥹
#TavQOTD
What would their camp idles be?
▪︎ Repairing/tailoring clothes or treating stains.
▪︎ Distracted by something around her.
▪︎ Eating bread.
▪︎ Spinning a dagger with a practiced ease, but occasionally accidentally sends it flying into the wooden post.

What would their camp idles be ?
Fin is often caught sharpening his blades, in the evening he can be spotted praying. As the story goes on, and he gets comfortable with the group he can be seen working with his fire, and occasionally reading.
Before I sleep, I'm going to drop this:
I've gone out of chronological order already bc this has been waiting for me to post 💀
But this is self-indulgent and messy and it's the side of Candy I don't talk about as much on here so I hope you enjoy it 💕
Hello to new moots 🥰
This gives me an excuse to post Candy. Say its an introduction and not just me dumping photos.
This is Candy, my main tav. She loves bad jokes, doesn't realise she's their de facto leader, and didn't know she was in a relationship until Withers said so.
Oh my GOD it took two whole days of searching, but I finally found the photo from the very beginning of Candy's playthrough, where I fucked Astarion up so much by accident that I think he really wanted to go to bed and it wasn't just a dialogue thing
If you heard my name, no you didn't, you know the rules.
@ANEMMAX
did the sweetest thing and got me a cameo from
@NeilNewbon
and I just wanted to let you all know because she's the best and deserves all the love in the world 🥰💕
Astarion: I'm going to ascend.
Candy, just back from her solo dinosaur field trip that ended in an outhouse, bloodied, tired, and none of her friends apparently have anything to say about it: say that again I fucking dare you
#TAVQOTD
What was your tav’s childhood like?
There are a lot of times in Candy's life where she didn't understand that what was happening to her was bad. But her childhood? She understood how much hurt was being done to her.
She had no family, no friends, no name, no identity.
Freya grew up poor but well loved by her parents. They taught her music, magic, and anything else she wanted to know. They stuck close together being tieflings in Baldurs Gate was a little rough. When they were murdered in front of her, it was more than enough to break her heart
When I say Candy and Astarion are besties, I don't mean they're like suave little badass rogues. I mean they're just a couple of pretty faces who go missing and do dumb stuff.
They ended up in the oubliette ALONE. I spent an hour trying to unbreak a trap that put him in a cage.
#TavQOTD
if you could edit one thing about your Tav/Durge (that you cannot edit in game) what would it be?
The Candy you know is not quite the Candy I know 😶
My Candy is shorter, a bit curvier with a corset-shaped waist. Her hair is discoloured at the front.
#TavQOTD
if you could edit one thing about your Tav/Durge (that you cannot edit in game) what would it be?
I cheated a bit with this one as there's not one but two changes, but I'd make Ennorae taller so that she's 6'0''/183cm in game as well and make her slightly more muscular
Meet Hela and her family ✨️
Top to bottom:
Fenrir, The Sun Eater
Jörmungandr, The World Serpent
Hela, Goddess of Death
Loki, The Trickster God
Angrboða, She Who Brings Grief
Just saying hi, and I know I've been quiet recently. I'm dealing with some personal issues, and they take up a lot of my emotional bandwidth/mental capacity. I'm still here though, just a little more of a lurker for a week or so 💕💕
Have this photo of Angrboða rolling up:
#tavqotd
an AMA with your tav/durge, all questions allowed and answer in character!
Candy wants to yap. She's got lots of opinions, even on things she doesn't know about.
There are literally games I do not play, communities I do not engage with, and co-op/online features that I do not use because of past experiences.
Some of them are games I'd love to play, but I just can't subject myself to the male gamers who inhabit that space.
