NOW. I’m Italian. Italians are always perceived as the messy, loud, uneducated, rude, dirty ones. (let’s not talk about the mafia stereotype, because I don’t want to get more furious than this right now) Of course, because of this, everyone can make fun of us, everyone can call us names, they can say we’re ignorant and shit, and you know what? that’s okay, you can do this. Sure. But you can’t come here, in Rome holy shit, and trash the only good thing left of this country : our culture. You ABSOLUTELY can’t come to Rome and damage THE MOTHERFUCKING BERNINI’S FOUNTAIN IN PIAZZA DI SPAGNA (which, by the way, had been restored like a few months ago). And now, thanks to the lovely dutch hooligans, that’s all gone. Do you know how much we paid that restoration? 200.000 euros. 200.000 motherfucking euros. Gone. Wasted. Now, I understand that some people could be like “yeah but that’s a one time thing” but no, shit, this is not the first time it happens. A few months ago a French man tried to steal a piece of a wall. OF POMPEI. Two Irish men, a few weeks ago, damaged the Basilica of Sant’Andrea della Valle. I could go on forever with this shit, I don’t even care anymore of where those people come from. I JUST WANT YOU TO RESPECT US. And if you really can’t respect Italians, respect our culture at least. Because that’s all we have. And remember that this country is not your souvenir shop. You can’t come here and have a bath in the Venice’s canals, you can’t steal pieces of wall from Pompei. You can’t trash Roma because your team is playing in the city. You can’t do that. You. Can’t. Do. That.
Who is this little Tav going to romance? Astarion, Shadowheart or Wyll?
No one because I can't fucking play right now TT
My laptop is not good enough and I can only play on my boyfriend's PC, who conveniently lives across the globe. Pray that I can avoid as many spoilers as possible before I go back to his house...

Hello! I'm back with another Dragon Age portrait. This time, it's Bellara as (again) an Anthony van Dyck portrait, specifically the "Portrait of Lady d'Aubigny." Painting all that drapery was fun torture but I'm happy to be done. If you would like to help me choose the next subject, I'm open to any suggestion!

I love how in Bioware games I can do things I can’t do in real life; fight dragons, travel through space, date someone. Truly amazing.
Thanks, Bioware, for ruining real life relationships for me with your damned high bar of swoon-worthy romances.
me: ahh yes im an artist…. i specialize in drawing characters against white backgrounds with little to no body movement, the 3/4 angle is my forte. comfort zone whats that?
