re-drew that male Dolorosa from earlier
My submission for the album art contest!! Finished super-late!! YEAH!!!!
I figure if any character would allow me to
- stick symbolism into the piece and
- exploit the “looks good at low effort” methods of stained glass
it’s the Dolorosa.
EDIT: LMAO WHOOPS in my relief and panic from finishing barely on time I realized I uploaded the wrong one. And also submitted the wrong one. Guess who has two thumbs and has a good chance of being disqualified!! (this guy.)
At least the brighter version will be on my blog, I think this one looks more like light is actually shining through it.
Here is a preview picture from my photoshoot with Jack Liu at Katsucon!
MOMMMM YOU’RE CRAMPING MY ANARCHY
rule 63 Dolorosa I doodled but never did anything with
maybe I should do the rest of the ancestors too and also better
Soooo, this was the one I wasn’t expecting to do. But, oh man, this had to be the most fun by far. A parody of Michaelangelo’s Pieta, I guess. It seemed fitting? Not really sure. haha

My three entries for the album contest!!
I decided to bring back that popular doodle of Sollux as my second choice. Gotta represent my patron troll after all.
Also this has made me realize that I do draw a lot of Homestuck, but not a lot of it is presentable quality (in my opinion). I need to work on this.
Time to submit!!
Shh Only Dolorosa Now
The Sufferer required a less conventional upbringing to reach maturity. As a young grub, he landed in the brooding caverns where he would be expected to face his trials. But due to his mutation, surely no lusus would select him. No creature sympathetic to his scent had been bred yet. His odds for survival would have been remote, if not for a chance encounter. The Dolorosa belonged to the rare class assigned strictly to serving the mother grub in the caverns, forbidden from visiting the surface. While on an errand, she found the young Sufferer in his crater and immediately recognized the child as special, as well as in great danger. For an adult troll to raise a child was unthinkable, but she saw no other hope for him. The Dolorosa abandoned her duties in the caverns, and fled to the surface to raise him.
In time, she would become the first follower of his teachings, and the first of his inner circle. But not his closest.
