Yeee`s sketchbook

Still enjoying your drawings, love the creativity and storytelling in each image! I need to go back to the beginning and try to figure out all the story lines, I know there's a culture going on that I see snippets of but perhaps I don't see as enough of the dolling thread to keep track of it all... Anyway, what's the history on the little one?

The reason I ask is it seems like donuts keep getting inserted into the EQ fandom. I had a short series that put a Kahvi analog being obsessed with them (inspired by her chase of the ruins of Blue Mountain's rune-stonework). In a way there's some similarity between Kahvi and this (Lily Pad?) little one, at least hair wise. Just wondering if there's a donut craving lurking beneath the EQ story-line just begging to be fed?

Yay, I gained another like from the Pinis for my watercolor picture, strike!  (boast boast!       )

#condemned. day 25 of Mermay. What a prompt, but ok. Areias, emissary and prince of Atlantica had lured Yeee into a trap with a fake Peace negotiations Ball. She never thought he would train Dancing with her for months to hand her over to his vengeful grandfather King Triton. The king is looking Forward to having her beheaded. He also wanted the head of Sea Raider Ortega for the crime he had committed to Ariel, which led to Areias's existence..At least he could omit his anger at the queen of the High Sea Nation and quickly condemned and sentenced her to death by saw. But what is going on with Areias? Can he not bear the execution of the hated enemy? And why he clenches his fist? No,of course not. This is so not what he wanted. The executionioner will be the one who will not be well. Areias will get Triton not to kill her,but to put her in prison. (How to behead underwater? IT is not possible with an axe or a sword,but Whoa!!! With a saw is even more brutal.) Pencil Version.

hi, Trollhammer and thanx a lot.
" I need to go back to the beginning and try to figure out all the story lines, I know there's a culture going on that I see snippets   of"
Where to start? Maybe in the Roleplaying section? But my pictures are in here in this thread (only harpy pictures are flying elsewhere in the Harpy thread). And yes, you areright, these are all snippets. I am  a chaot and I am no storyteller, I have ideas concerning Yeees history and and like to draw some scenes out of it.
Now you wanted to read about Lilypad? She is one of the brats of Yeee and  Goldruff and one of the elf OC´s of my youngest daughter Malou. The backgroundstory is simply that my elder daughter Luna wanted her elf OC Moonlight to be the daughter of Yeee and "Chad", now Goldruff. And I thought it would be nice if I create also a little fullblood  sister for her in the EQ universe. And every May I partake in the Mermay contest on DeviantArt.com. Last year one of the theme prompts (one for every day in May) was "Lilypad ". The merbaby I drew for this prompt became the little sister of Moonlight and got the name "Lilypad". Later I had the idea to make her a more piraty elf, for it seemed to fit my daughters cheeky character. On the first Sea Raider comic I drew Lilypad appeared for the first time as adult. It showed her with a feature mix of Leetah and PiratesOfTheCaribbeans-Elisabeth Swan. On HeroForge she gained a 3-pointed hat, a cigar and a bottle of rum as accessoirs, LOL.  She knows how to enjoy her life and loves parties with plenty to drink.
So now to your question, what is the donut supposed to be? No, nothing with Elfquest, it's simply one of the prompts for this year's Mermay. The subject just screamed out for the little pirate Lilypad to appear on this picture as the little pesty thief who nicked all the eatable rests out of the humans picnic box. grin!
And why this monstrous picture above? Todays Mermay prompt is "condemned"

#saved. Day 26 of Mermay. Yes I had this posted before, but in pencil version and there where horrible errors in it , I am glad that I worked on it again. The text is the same as on Instagram, there I always have to go a little further or explain what concerns the typical Elfquest details.
Although it doesn't Look Like the poor land elf has been saved , but it is. Yeee rescues Rayek from an attacking horde of humans with His magical palace shard. It enhances every elf magic users powers. Luckily it enables Yeee to use the self shaping magic (to transform lungs into gills and legs into a fishtail) upon other beings too. But the procedure is horrible to be shaped into a water breather, especially when lying on the back and having no control about it.

#insane Day 27 of Mermay. Rayek is completely transformed into a mer elf. His size has been shrunk and he can no longer breathe Air. Had he been sane, he could have successfully defended himself against IT.

@jaRf: Hi! here are 2 pictures for your collection!

#obsessed day 28 of Mermay. Yeee is obsessed with drowning every human at sea. As the Queen of mean she has declared war on them. This time she sinks an entire whaling ship and all of the sailors gone out on the dinghies.
Another revised picture.

I can finally get to the working Dolphin maker. This one gets near the Sea Raiders companions, but I could also let them be a different cetacean species on Abode (World o. 2 moons).


HELP! Can annyone find me the working "Azaleas Dolls" Mermaid Scene Maker. Now I have Windows and the game is not on the Y8 site!?! WAAAAIL!

Let me see if I can find it on Y8, was told a cheat, want to check if it works...

waiting for Y8 to load... it's there, just search for dolphin. I'm using the browser though, not the site. None of the flash games will work on explorer, firefox or chrome.

hi, Tynami, it is not the dolphin maker I search,thanx. I can play with it already as seen above. I am in search for the  "Azaleas Dolls" Mermaid Scene Maker. Here this stuff:

I miss it so much   , the mermans look so awesome, wanted to make more Areias pictures that are not drawn by myself . like this here

and this Areias

#coral Day 29 of Mermay. "Meet me at 50 fathoms!" or "See you at the feed Cannon!" is a common phrase among Sea Raiders. They refer to the Sea Raider's favourite Meeting Point, hiding place and trading Post near Atlantica. In the middle of a heap of rubble from sunk ships lies this one ship with a large gaping hole in the side, next to this hole a sign with the inscription: "Ye olde tavern at 50 fathoms deep". There, Silver has prepared a little coral surprise for Yeee, to her delight.

#competitive Day 30 of Mermay. Wild and fierce Sea Raider Ortega, the father of Areias, misses no opportunity to demonstrate his physical superiority. But his cetacean Kin are hard to beat in competition.

MERMAY FINISHED! ..and me too
The picture for tomorrows end of Mer May will be an old one.

not Elfquest but Merorca Seawitch Madame Méduse. It is definitely not easy to place a cauldron on a black smoker without it falling. But it is even more difficult to keep a liquid in a cauldron floating in the sea without it combining with the sea water. This is only possible with a special spell.
 " Magia despumat aeni obtinuit amet omnibus vobis." (Magical bubbling cauldron hath taken hold on a lot of you all ! -yes the witchcraft language is very weird)  after removing the seawater from the inside of the cauldron. "despumat aeni trepidi despumat aeni, ut omnia intus vacua."(cauldron, bubbling cauldron, get empty of all inside!)
But the real spell was yet to come. What is going to be put into the kettle? And what kind of magic is that going to be?
Méduse: " "I guess I'll tell you right now, ha!" She raises her hands and chants freakily:
"Potio magicae, magicae potio,
quae manere debet sicut erat, per omnia sǽcula sæculórum.
Potio magicae, magicae potio,
custodite omne quod est, ita oportet manere in aeternum. Ha hahahaa" (Magic potion, magic potion, everything should stay as it was, forever and always. Ha hahahaa)Oh the last sounds were just her fanatic dirty witch laughter.

Drawing stupid jokes is my specialty. So now the Cave Club Kids dolls got it and 2 of them have already been elfizised and turned into cat elves  

Here is Rockelle , or as a cat elf she can be Rockatte:

and here is Roaralei

I absolutely LOVE Rockelle and Roaralei, Yeee! They look so vivid, with a beautiful coloring! So well done! Bravo! Are their characters like opposites?

Thanks so much, Prayer!
The figures are simply copied from Mattel dolls and got turned into cat elves, nothing more.

This "nothing more" provides a LOT of fun, Yeee! and you turn them into a quite believable "Stone Age" Elf tribe!

heh heh thanx!

I revised some pictures.
forgot the patterns on the tail


and here forgot to ink Yeees caudal fin.


In my vacation I played around with a dolphin colouring book, so this is not really mine but a drawn Sea Raider-dolphin (wolphin) dolling.  Tee hee! ..and sadly a lot of dirt on the paper , well it was used at a kids birthday party

I really like that witch drawing, especially with Halloween on my mind lately. I may have to try coloring it.

Those doll/cat elves...uh..they sure are colorful lol. Eeeegh kids toys nowadays....^^0

Thank you, Vaeri. I have to revise the witch picture too before you colorize it, just saw an error!
Yes the nowadays dolls are often weird. But I like them, I just can`t stand Barbies.

excellent new additions

Used to love barbies and the classic ones I still tend to doll cause I was raised with them. Only Barbie I get now is Merida from Brave. There is a Betelguese Barbie set being released, I don't know if you'd be interested in them... I just thought they looked cool.

Thanx Tynami!
lol, the Betelguese Barbie set looks cool weird und would fit to Lily Pads Bratz witch dolls.

this belongs in here too:
Grab Bag 2021 July

Very cool! You always have so much detail in your drawings Yeee^^

Thanx so much, you two!
