A digitally coloured grey pencil drawing of Gerard Keay from the Magnus Archives. He's shown from the shoulders up, his body slightly turned away from- and his head turned toward the viewer. He is slouching forward a little and frowns darkly at the viewer. His eyes are heavily shaded but his irises are white, like they are glowing. Gerry has long and straight dark hair, that he wears in a neat middle part and tidily tucked behind his ears. He wears a loose-fitting dark shirt. This drawing is coloured in warm shades: orange, browns and red-ish purples. The background is ochre.ALT
The same drawing as the first, but this time coloured with magenta, purple and blue. The background is a gradient with black at the top and blue at the bottom.ALT
The original grey pencil drawing on white paper.ALT

Some shading and colouring practice! I got Gerry urges :3

A black and white picture of a man with the same pose and expression as my drawing of Gerry. The man has short hair and wears a jacket, seemingly with nothing underneath, revealing a hairy chest.ALT

A grey pencil drawing (with some additional digital shading) of Gerard Keay and Jonathan Sims from The Magnus Archives. The two are siting on covered concrete stairs in front of a house. Jon sits on a lower stair than Gerry, and leans against the brick wall that encloses the top of the stairs. He has his legs tucked up, and one of them folded under the other. He has a lit cigarette in his mouth and offers Gerry the flame of a lighter with an expectant smile. Gerry faces Jon, returning the smile. He rests his right arm on his knee and holds a cigarette between his fingers. He has his left leg extended behind Jon, and Jon rests his left hand on Gerry's foot.ALT
A close up of the first image.ALT

Another drawing from reference (below the cut) for JonGerry! I didn’t like the background in the ref image, so I found a picture of some houses down the street where my sister used to live. They have stairs leading to the front doors

A picture of two people in largely the same pose as Gerry and Jon in the drawing above. Gerry's model is a man with short, curly, blond hair and Jon's model is a girl with a dark bob. Where Jon has one leg tucked underneath the other, this girl has her foot against the railing of the stairs. The background is different too: the stairs go up much higher and the railings are metal.ALT

I found the image on pinterest and tried to discover if it had another source, but I had no luck. Perhaps pinterest is the original source after all idk. I don’t really understand that site 😅 In any case, click the image to see the original image.

[ID: A digital drawing of Gerry Keay sleeping on a muted red blanket background. He is a straight-sized white man with long, badly dyed black hair with brown roots and brown streaks, small eye tattoos on all his joints and over his heart, burns all over his body from the neck down, eye bags, and patchy stubble. He has a bridge piercing, snakebites, two ear piercings and black nail polish, and he is wearing an old torn up grey crop top with giant holes in it, black boxers with holes in them, and white and gray socks. He is sleeping peacefully with one hand up near his head, the other pinned under his back, and one foot crossed over the other leg and pinned under the other knee. There are three “z"s by his head. end ID]

jon archivist sims

[ID: Magnus Archives fanart of Jon Sims, a thin brown man with long hair holding up a tape recorder with a neutral expression. The canvas fractures like glass over his left eye, and each splintered section shows a progression of a close-up on Jon’s eye slowly moving to face the viewer. His face is lit by progressively brighter green light, and his pupil develops a green glint. End ID]
