Bartholomew Finn - Tumblr Posts

A little drawing based on this post from @imaginethisisagoodname about Kyborg having chronic pain (and not knowing)

I’ve been trying to get back into drawing traditionally and I’m pretty happy with how this little comic turned out

Infinights Statues

(spoilers for all of the infinights campaign)

So in the chosen ones campaign they run into a statue of Kyborg, and I'd like to imagine all of the infinights got statues, and I was gonna draw them but I want that drawing to be prettier then my skill will allow so here's all my ideas about them

Kyborg's statue - this is the one we get in canon, so the one we know the most about. I can't remember if the statue was described with specific pose in canon, but if not I think it would have a bow drawn. I also think the right arm of the statue would be made out of metal, either metal that doesn't rust or it's enchanted in some way.

Bart’s statue - I imagine Bart’s staute would be in Tetora in some sort of town square. I don’t think we get a canon location for where he ended up living so this made the most sense. I think people would gather around the staute for some sort of music festival. The statue pose is him holding a lute, and at certain times of day, or maybe when the tide is in a certain state (cause pirate) there’s music that comes out of the statue.

Gum Gum’s statue - I think Gum Gum’s statue would be in the garden of the orchanage (how do you spell that??). Kids would leave flowers arond it, and flowers tend to grow around it. The staue pose is either him triumphantly holding his flower staff, or him with his arms open in a way that could be going in for a hug or doing cool magic. I also know I saw a post somewhere a bit ago about the people of Faeza hosting a flower festival for Gum Gum, and I feel like the statue would be important for that.

Mudd’s statue - The people of the Witherveins would’ve wanted Mudd’s statue to be in there, but I think Mudd would’ve wanted his statue in Ürbloom outside his cafe. His statue shows him holding a statue version of Gumbo, and animals tend to gather around the statue

Group statue - There would also be a statue of all of them in Boulderay, maybe outside Ahem Academy. There’s probably also one of those Brink magic stores nearby. The OG Infinights probably also have statues somewhere.

Sorry for the awkward formatting, I’m still figuring out tumblr

Also if anyone with a pretty art style (or any art style, doesn’t really matter) wants to draw this that would be amazing

Another one of my old Infinights reference sheets, I drew this while trying to combat same face syndrome

I definitely draw them differently now, but this was the first time a group of characters that I drew looked truly distinct

Tftsd WIP animatic!

(finished version here)

I feel like the characters look a little funky, that would be fixed in the final version (if I ever finish this)

Also does anyone know what Gum Gum’s dad looks like? Or how to spell his name?

Also this is literally just a screen recording of my flipping through the frames on procreate, so if the timing is weird that's why

AHH I finished it!!

this animation would’ve taken a whole lot less time if I hadn’t had to spend so long on timing, I ended up just giving up so the timing might be a bit weird

Now with colour and some minor adjustments, I'm only on ep 60 so im sure these designs will change as I continue to listen, but for now I'm happy with how they all look. Might take a crack at Mr. Barkeep later.

Added Gum Gum's axe, and kyborg's new ruby(side note: episode 55 ruined me emotionally :'] )

POV: You're the poor Valrossian who had to ID the new inmates

been thinking about hugs ...

they are so special to me... (a few thoughts in tags)

Absolutely no thoughts in this man’s head. Not a single one.

"Family Portrait"

Found family's best family

Do camera phones even exist in Faeza? Idk but that dont matter. This pic has a place of honor in mudd's cafe/bookshop

More spoilers:

Also even though as a kid Inku/the dark never did anything to him (besides steal his parents) I wouldn’t be surprised if the dark around him had been manipulated to be scary( I don’t think Inku knew where Bart was but she could have cast some spell on him so that the darkness around him was more scary when he was born like a evil darkness godmother) wich would mean at the orchanedge he would probably try to point out how the dark was doing scary things but no one would believe him and just think he was weird for being afraid of something as natural as darkness. Also some of the meaner kids might have tried to use the dark to scare him so that by the time he met mudd and kyborg he was trying to hide the fact that he was afraid of the dark until he knew they wouldn’t make fun of him.

Spoilers for Bart’s arc bellow

So people being afraid of the dark is an evolutionary thing, and Bart is afraid of the dark when no one else is (that I know of). You could say that’s just a coincidence, or you could say that the other party members family history never involved being in a place where being afraid of the dark was a survival thing (I’m just imagining that in the history of Faeza there was never a period like the earth Stone Age because they had enough magic to be able to protect against stuff and they could live in groups who pooled their magic together to set up defenses). But Bart is afraid of the dark because some part of him subconsciously knew that his parents had been lost to the darkness and this makes his fear so much more unexplainable since people think he’s just being paranoid but then the dark dose attack him and while that would validate him it would probably mean he never got over his fear of the dark and he probably didn’t like whenever his faimly got to close to the dark either.

Hot to go is a very Bart song

This is such a good idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day 2 : Intense Training/Sparring with friends

I didn't have the energy to write a whole thing about this so I drew it (with my meagre art talent - I'm aware its poor at best XD )

I wanted something really angsty but I didn't have enough time or energy to plan it properly.

Discription and an extra scene below (sparring with friends)!

What's happening here? :

1 - Bart hears grunting and what sounds like speach, coming from Kyborg's room. It sounds like he's training, but he's talking to himself as well.

2 - Inside, Kyborg has discarded his quiver after some target practice, and is now doing pull-ups on his bar. His hair is tied back into a ponytail, with two plaits running from his temples all the way through the ponytail (I told you, his hair gets in everything I do, its the law)

3 - Bart and Gum Gum have come to check on Kyborg. They push his door open to find him doing one-armed push ups, with his prosthetic arm to the side.

After this :

Bart, Gum Gum, Kyborg and Mudd all have a discussion about how training is very good but pushing yourself too much isn't.

B : you can always train with us y'know

K : I know, I just like to do it alone sometimes.

M : just don't push yourself too much, we still need you fully functioning mate,

GG : we can all do it together

K : you got it buddy,

A bit later Mudd and Kyborg are sat outside looking at the stars. Mudd is listening to the animals and Kyborg is absent-mindedly plaiting a small section of his hair.

M : *staring into the distance* you don't have to be training to have a moment alone.

K : I know...

M : we've all been through stuff, we get it.

K : Yeah, thanks.

M : you wanna go for a round around the ring tommrorow?

K : sure, just be ready to be absolutely throttled. You're facing Kyde- Kyborg the MIGHTY!

Mudd smiles a small smile as Kyborg jumps up and waves goodbye to him. Maybe he would get through one day.

So I may or may not write this at a later date, I kinda want to, but not rn. For now enjoy my shoddy art piece and half-thought out infinight dialogue! You're welcome ((:
