Description Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! 

This is a special image for Mother's day, featuring Arian and her mother, the Empress of the Alorian Empire.  Arian is the youngest of three daughters, and while this means her royal status is low, she always has a special place in her mother's heart (despite her selfish and bratty behaviour).  I tried something a little different on this painting (mostly because I ran out of time), and did a greyscale rendering of the scene, focusing on light and dark contrasts.   I am pleased with how it turned out, but I think I will also try a fill colour version in the near future! The Empress's thrown is a giant gold sculpture designed with a mermaid motif, hinting at Alorian mythology and royal symbolism.  High above the grand hall is a star map of all the systems under Alorian control.

Epic work; the royalty-ness can be seen from their elegant posture

I think I understand. As Empress, she rules strictly over the lives of all her people and her youngest daughter. But as the mother, she loves (and of course spoils) Arian dearly...

Alexx-C In reply to Serpentheart [2017-07-20 17:35:50 +0000 UTC]

For sure, there are few people the Empress loves.. and her youngest is on top of that list.
She is particularly impressed with her haughtiness and cruelty.

Have been kicking around a Senya story still.  But I have need of more input, er, information.  Does the Empress of the Alorian Empire have just one Prince Consort to father all three daughters, or are they from separate sources?  And does the Empress, being the empress, get to do things on the side and in private for her own enjoyment?  Such as, have extramarital affairs, and does she engage in drug and alcohol usage as well?

Interesting questions indeed!  I have not thought too much about the Empress, but I will reveal some more in the comic later.
You could make up a new royal or aristocratic character, then there would be no limitations! Maybe a bad-girl who Arian is not allowed to visit (because she is such a bad influence)!

cullyferg2010 In reply to Alexx-C [2017-07-19 01:38:37 +0000 UTC]

Maybe an aunt or close cousin to the Empress that Arian does not approve.  Thanks for the insight!

LONG MAY SHE REIGN!

XD Sorry, GoT Marathon on HBO just ended!

I love it! It's SO moody and atmospheric and looks like it's straight out of a movie and basically something I've wanted to know for some time - what Arian's mom looks like! : 3

And not only that, but they look to get along nicely, no hint of sideways vibes - which is nice. Too many people go for the "Oh, they're perceived as bad, so they are bad in every respect of their lives and with everyone." Doesnt seem to be the case here! Not every brat is a sociopath, I guess! ; D

Alexx-C In reply to RemnantComic [2017-07-04 03:20:15 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Arian's mom is the one person she fears and loves. 
They both share a lust for power and domination, and looking down upon the peoples of the galaxy! So, they have plenty to bond over.
The mom would be harder on her two eldest daughters (who would inherit high and important stations), but Arian she is free to spoil... and delight as she abuses her underlings!

Nice grayscale, also the galaxy map on the roof help the empress to keep an eye on the general situation.

Thanks! The empress loves to gaze over all of the star systems under her control... just imagining the praise and worship of her trillions of subjects.

That is absolutely spectacular. 

Arian: "You s-summoned me Mother?" 

Empress: "Yes my dear! I thought that we might have a little chat regarding the recent loss of that necklace which I leant you."

Arian: "Gulp!"

Ahaha! That would be an awkward encounter.
"What? It's not like it was some kind of family heirloom or anything?!"

Arian: "Other matter? W-what might that be?"

Empress: "Yes! That would be the fact that the entire quadrant is gossiping about my youngest offspring for allowing herself to be spanked in public by a common thief, thereby bringing unforgettable shame upon my entire dynasty. Apparently bawdy songs are being composed in ale houses, highly disrespectful graffiti is appearing on the walls of public buildings, and you are now the laughing stock of the entire Empire... THAT other matter!"

Ha!! That would definitely happen if the word got out.
Ohh.. how the rival houses and commoners would love it!  For now the news is contained by the quick crackdown by Carin.

Henchies-and-hose In reply to Alexx-C [2017-05-16 00:43:25 +0000 UTC]

Nonetheless, the Empress may want to teach her errant daughter a lesson and I doubt that Arian will get much in the way of support from her elder sisters. Royal siblings can be quite competitive and delight in each other's misfortune.

Henchies-and-hose In reply to Alexx-C [2017-05-16 14:02:07 +0000 UTC]

I'm sure that hauling in Arian's guards for a little chat should have the desired result of getting the feed from the drones' cameras.
Hark! I hear evil, royal cackling.

When I saw the throne my first thought was that the queen had captives dressed up as mermaods then turned into a throne...thinking stasis.

I see it going something like this "well dear daughter, you may turn your captives into ponies, but I turn mine into furniture...I cant wait to perch my derrière upon that tramp Senya's rump"

In particular I'm intrigued by the mention of Alorian mythology. Do mermaids have anything to do with why the empire is mostly female?
