when i asked y'all what paid zmeess art stuff you’d be most interested in smut was pretty much the most popular option (which i’d expected honestly, i know what we’re all about), but since i can’t post suggestive stuff on my donation/subscription page you are getting it here
non-explicit wizard spice under the cut! some nudity included though, be careful
wizard activities include but are not limited to conducting experiments on how far down your partner’s legs you can tug his pants if you’re kissing his stomach while being situated between his legs. you know. important academic stuff
(also y'all can still tip me over on boosty despite me not being able to post this kinda stuff on it 😉)

i’ve been very busy with work recently and haven’t been able to draw much fanart, but i did manage to finish this one today! i’ve wanted to draw Essek and Verin for months, and i also really miss fancy dynasty clothes 🤭
Ladies, Germs, and assorted beloved Fruits, may I present the Zmeess robe, my secret sewing project of the last few months.
We all know I have a soft spot in my heart for the critical role character Essek Thelyss but alas, he never called for me to cosplay him.
The wonderful artist @zmeess draws him SO handsome and designs his clothing SO elegantly that the temptation to sew something grew and grew till instead of a cosplay, I simply had to make one of Zmeess’ wizard robes as a regular piece of clothing for me.
Zmeess was EXTREMELY kind in giving me the go ahead to get sewing and I’m so happy with how it turned out. I did some edits of my own to make the jacket wearable and practical (adding a contrasting lining to the torso, keeping it tea length and shortening the sleeves a smidge, adding a few extra beads here and there).I can’t wait to find a day fancy enough to wear it out (the theater! or a nice elegant dinner! a wedding if the couple wont judge me) and once the local weather stops raining I plan to take a shoot outside with some different more natural styling and you can all see it from neck to ankle.
As a plus sized person its always nice to explore volume and purposeful obfuscation of shape when fashion dictates that we take up less room and look as thin as possible. Making myself a big elegant wizard robe that turns me into a mystery is extremely refreshing! As a cosplayer its kind of nice to do a reverse closet cosplay (instead of making a costume out of clothing I own, I am making fictional clothing to go in my regular closet with no costumes involved) and its something i could see myself doing more in the future.
If you are interested in how I made this I will be doing a full breakdown on instagram including the embroidery, pattern drafting/hacking, and all the fiddly details.
every single time i think about the fact that Beck made a whole damn ROBE based on my silly design i go apeshit. i’m terrible with words, just LOOK at it. look at how beautiful it is. i saw some progress pics and details and i am constantly star eyes emoji at the skill. also the lining is the sexiest teal-pink duochrome that is incredibly sophisticated and fancy and very Essek. go give Beck and her craft tons of love please
