Connection Rune
Finished this today! another little minicomic from my #mageviktor story. In this the hexcore holds an entity which is connected to viktor's mind (and senses) so they're basically saying 'what if jayce could feel (instead of just me)'

@kevinsimaginarium.bsky.social has been sharing his glorious #coreofthearcane #jayvik AU with me (snippets of it) and I had to draw some of my favourite moments (chibi mage vik being dunked on by Moon not included it was just on the page XD)

#jayvik #coreofthearcane working on comic cover page too 🥰 maybe some remember this I did the sketch more than a year ago I think but Viktor's head angle was so hard and I just abandoned it for a while. Love how the lineart turned out. Nothing in this image is final it's just a design layout

Working on another one page minicomic so have some wip sketches. It's part of their first(?) meeting. kind of follow up to that other thing I posted some time ago but still important middle stuff missing.

More designs of different ages for my #jayvik story. these are probably(?) not final but my first attempt at drawing Ximena and mini jayce (without his winter clothes). no teenage jayce because jayce and viktor don't meet as teenagers.

#InEveryTimelineDTIYS #jayvik #coreofthearcane #mageviktor #viktorarcane #jaycetalis Also wanted to participate! and of course I had to make it based on my mage viktor AU 🥰
The image shows Jayce and Viktor from Arcane in their Season 1 outfits. It's from my AU Core of the Arcane so Viktor can do magic here. Viktor's eyes are glowing blue and the connection rune is glowing on both jayce and viktor's heads. a little bit more close up compared to the original version of the same picture

Wanted to sketch something from my AU and decided to sketch this scene here. Explanation would be heavy spoilers. Also did a bit of hand practice with this. I really like how this turned out and hope some of you like it too 🥰

Viktor from Arcane with glowing blue eyes. He's looking shocked and has some tears running down his cheeks

Some design sketches for an arcane storage container and a random #mageviktor in the corner (because I was bored). Need this thing for the prologue which I want to start soon. Hopefully!

magic overview of my #mageviktor from my AU #coreofthearcane
I'll make an improved version later but I really wanted to share with you. This was a lot of work. The name of the force rune is still undecided because we couldn't really decide on a name. feel free to suggest something!

#jayvik #coreofthearcane I have started working on the prologue of my comic and am excited. It'll probably be a while till I finish them. I'm not sure if you can tell what's happening since these are meant for me. The stone thing is a hex crystal which mysteriously glows when vik touches it.

More random art from my AU. 🥰Viktor doing some magic on a shimmer vial. This is more of a concept thing because I'm trying to find out what it looks like when Viktor uses magic on things. (but of course it does also have story relevance).
#jayvik #coreofthearcane #viktorarcane
Viktor from arcane from my AU is holding a shimmer vial in his right hand and is using magic on it. His eyes glow blue and there are circles with runes (severance runes) around the shimmer vial. He's wearing his brown shirt with light stripes. closeup of viktor's face. It's the same image as the other one.

Bonus image for the Sleepover minicomic
This is basically why Viktor is so tired the next day. He just didn't sleep. As for what happens before this...that's a secret. No kiss and no sexual interaction though, they are not together yet.
#coreofthearcane #mageviktor #jayvik #viktorarcane #jaycetalis
Viktor and Jayce are in Viktor's bed. Jayce is on his side, turned towards viktor, sleeping peacefully with a little bit of blush on his face. Viktor is staring straight ahead with a look of pure terror and anxiety on his face. He is blushing heavilly. Viktor's text caption says: Too horny and incredibly anxious about sleeping next to Jayce to fall asleep. Jayce's text caption says: Was also horny but did manage to fall asleep.

Jayce's new colleague!
excited to finally post this. This is part of their first meeting in my #mageviktor AU #coreofthearcane
#jayvik #minicomic
It's Viktor's first work day at Piltover academy as Jayce's assistant. And he hasn't been to Piltover before.
Some more context/rambling in the replies!
A comic with Jayce and Viktor from Arcane from an AU. They are wearing their academy uniforms. Viktor has his leg brace on his right leg and a cane in his left, leaning onto it. Jayce: Oh damn. I'm supposed to meet my new colleague. His name is Viktor and he's absolutely brilliant. And he's from Zaun! We never had a Zaunite working here in Piltover so I'm excited to get to know him! But now I'm already pretty late, I hope he's not pissed at me. Viktor: (chuckling a bit) I'm certain he won't mind. Jayce: I hope so. Quick, before I leave... what's your name? Viktor: It's Viktor. Jayce: Ok, see you around. I'm sure we'll meet again. Jayce turns to leave but then realizes his mistake. Jayce: Oh! Jayce quickly spins around again and puts his hand on Viktor's shoulder. Viktor looks surprised and a bit awkward. He has his right arm raised deciding whether to push Jayce's arm away or just let him touch him. In the end he doesn't. Jayce: Well then, Viktor, let me show you our lab! wip of the same comic. lineart only progress sketch with the original sketches put into comic format with speech bubbles

Hextech/Magic presentation Part 1 (?)
Starting the presentation people whisper negative things about 'the zaunite' viktor and combined with his anxiety on stage viktor got angry. and intense emotions can cause unintended magic to happen. some closeups in reply
#jayvik #coreofthearcane #mageviktor
This is a series of images depicting a scene. Some have dialogue. Jayce kisses Viktor. Viktor looks surprised and his eyes are glowing blue with arcane energy. A closeup of Viktor and Jayce's face while kissing. Viktor has started kissing back and smiles into the kiss while also putting his left hand on the back of jayce's head They have pulled back from the kiss. Viktor is gently touching Jayce's left cheek. Viktor: ...What was that for? Viktor has an awkward embarrassed smile on his face making a gesture towards the audience to their hextech presentation. Viktor: There are so many... people here... Jayce leans close towards viktor and quietly whispers says this to viktor so no one else can hear. Jayce: Your eyes were flickering... Surprising our audience with an accidental magic blast would probably not be the... smartest move. Viktor has an "Oh Shit" kind of expression on his face. Basically... awkwardly horrified or something.

Designs for a gala outfit for Jayce for my AU. He decides to go with a mix of Zaun/Piltover fashion. (Viktor is clueless about fashion so he doesn't even notice at first even though Jayce did it for him 😅)
#jayvik #coreofthearcane #jaycetalis
S1 Jayce Gala Outfit design. He's wearing a vest and a coat with swirly gold ornaments. The main color of the outfit is black and some parts are red. (the vest for example). on the edges are gold accents. The black jacket has long tailcoats and is red on the inside. On the back of the jacket is a big Talis crest in red and gold with swirly ornaments. S1 Jayce Gala Outfit design. The same as the previous image but without the jacket. You can now better see the swirly gold ornaments on the front left side of his jacket. it follows the side and goes a bit over the shoulder onto the back. There is also a similar gold ornament on the left of his pants running down the whole leg. The whole vest is asymmetrical. The main color of the vest is red but it has a black section on the bottom right (both on the front and the back of the vest) On the black are swirly gold ornaments as well.

Sleepover #minicomic
Another little shortened scene from my #mageviktor AU #coreofthearcane
This would be in Act 2 out of 4. Some context: Jayce and Viktor are not together yet this is super slow burn.
more rambling in the replies.
#jayvik #viktorarcane #jaycetalis #singed
a comic page with Singed, Jayce and Viktor. They are at Singed and Viktor's home. (from my mage viktor AU) evening: S: It's late. I suggest you stay overnight. The only options are my bed or Viktor's. And no, I'm not going to volunteer mine. Also I wouldn't advise sleeping on the floor, there might be toxic fumes at ground level. J: Alright... uh I guess there is only option then. That's fine. V: ...! *viktor has trouble processing what just happened and fails to reply* the next morning when viktor catches singed alone he's like V: ... didn't we have a spare couch in the storage room? S: Must have slipped my mind! I didn't see you volunteering that information though. V: ...I... missed the opportunity to do so! S: If you say so. S: Anyway you look tired, did Jayce keep you up all night? V: ....A... are you implying anything there....? S: I'm not. After all, as you know we have thin walls. I would have heard everything. V: !!!! horrified blush. his eyes glow blue and he accidentally destroys the cup he was holding with magic. J: comes in Good morning, what are you two talking about? S: Well... V: It does NOT concern you!

probably too early because I haven't started yet but I'm working on a longer jayvik comic at the moment, still in the plotting phase though. I do have minicomic pages and random scenes under #coreofthearcane . but it's also really slow burn so it will take a long time until we get to the smut.
