A Tzimisce and Tremere, inspired by conversations about the "Vampire the Maquerade" RPG.
...I'm guessing that those who don't know about the clans and their history won't get the irony here, so let me give you a small background:
- The Tzimisce and Tremere clans hate each other. From what I understand, the Tremere "conducted experiments" on members of the Tzimisce clan, which naturally caused them to become enemies. -
This picture? An impossibility, wrong on so many levels, and incredibly delicious because of it. Also it gave me a chance to further practise with computer colouring.

"wrong on so many levels..." Maybe. Then again, we don't see where Sascha's hands are, what those hands are doing, or how much of Miz Sturbridge is even still physically intact below the sternum and shoulders. It wouldn't at all be surprising to find Vykos lovingly cradling a Tremere... torso.
For some reason classic VtM produced practically no "slash" or Rule 34 art and only minimal fiction, certainly nowhere the amount one could reasonably expect from a game like this. Or, the Antediluvians are quietly making it "disappear" for reasons of their own. Even some of the major clan elders do that from time to time. You probably already heard about what happened to the artist who decided pairing Jan Pieterzoon and Theo Bell would be a great idea.
Even so, it's a very well-executed piece of art and an interesting interpretation of both characters, remarkably close to established canon with an unexpected yet agreeably modern touch to their depiction. Always nice to see artists keeping a fantastic old franchise from slipping into complete obscurity!
