Insist on believing that good will prevail; that the work will get done; that there will again be love. We have to want to get up in the morning for the good mornings to arrive.

HE BEGAN TO DREAM
Ronan and Chainsaw (Gansey) moments
AAAAAAH THANK YOU SO MUCH I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO NOTICE 😩♥️♥️♥️!!!!!!!
Also if we've already started this conversation..... My point for the second one was to curl Ronan to some kind of celtic man on ornaments. I also used this when characters are in touch with the magic. You can saw this in my art with Calla Persephone and Maura... I really like to talk about this little details!! And I'm so happy when someone notice these!!
I know it’s not easy for you, living this life, but try to remember, always try to remember, you’re not the only one with troubles.

THE RAVEN BOYS CHARACTER DESIGNS [10/10]
BARRINGTON WHELK
Sadly I've lost some of my drawings of him, thought he's one of my favourite designs. Unfortunately, I didn't have him a lot in my art pieces, thought I'm proud of how he had turned out.
The biggest problem was to make him look young, but older than the boys. It was hard with his big features, and then I've decided to distinguish him out of the boys through his clothes: i gave him more classical high-waisted pants, and it made him look different from the youngsters.
