Tecciztecatl My Absolute Beloved

this is us attacking you

Hi :3

AAAAAAAAAAAH AGGHHHHHHHHHH NOT THE BLAST

YIPPE E you are braver than I

i tried animating (kinda??) nana and tecciz in capcut and it got SO. LAGGY. I COULD COUNT THE FRAMES I FELT LIKE MY PHONE WAS ABOUT TO STOP WORKING ALTOGETHER and its too laggy to make anything better than this i fear but i had fun... (i think)

oh well. practice makes perfect, and i wanted to practice. im only posting this bc i havent rly posted much abt aztec gods in a while and its not too embarrassing (i think)

i had so much issues with getting tecciztecatls hair right in capcut oh my god. the boing was fun to make tho (i think)

So I found out the lobster was one of Tezcatlipoca’s animals

UPDATE YOU CAN GET IT ON A PILLOW

I just found an Etsy seller with post card of Tecciztecatl on a bike. It’s so niche. I love it.

Lovely lady Raine ❤︎︎

I looked it up because I couldn’t remember if I knew off the top of my head

W-

Why is safe search on

- Us being based on an "inky cap" mushroom

- Shrike being a squid, an animal known for producing ink

- "Ink Stations"

- Agent K being pure black, possibly named after the K in CMYK

So many references to ink! But surely this is a worldbuilding element not related to the five sun theory whatsoever! It's not like there's an Aztec god of ink or something

...

No Okays for you >:)

i feel so bad whenever im playing rythm heaven fever and the tap troupe pulls up in a remix but doesnt enthusiastically shout OKAAYYYY when i get something right like sorry..........

I’ve actually talked about this before lmao! I was tortured trying to find any other codex that shows him in the feminine clothing he’s wearing here so I’m not sure 🫠

Warning for nonsexual top nudity!

So I was originally gonna draw big naturals Tecciztecatl as a joke but I just ended drawing fem Metztli minus her rabbit scar because I was lazy

Plus all the refs I used because my canvas is always cluttered

Why is he (≧◡≦) ♡

I feel him. I have this reaction anytime I’m near fire it’s bad

tecciztecatl having that 'actually i am not a fan....' moment

i hadn't drawn him in a while so here he is :) also i wanted to test this new fineliner i got
