Description Hi there, everybody! ^^

Here I am again with one new character chart for the canon skeksis!
This time´s the turn for skekAyuk, the Gourmand, the one in charge of every sumptuous feast at the skeksis castle! ^^

Expect more of these until all 9 are here, the Emperor may be tricky or end up looking "not-canon" tho, since his next canon appearance has not been revealed and I intend to draw him in a better state than his movie "agonising self"   
I hope you´ll all enjoy these character charts featuring our "dear villains",  the skeksis! ^^
More art will be coming up, soon! stay tuned! ^^

I like how it looks like he's wearing garlic on his robes.

Also, I don't think its incidental that his collar looks like a pizza.

I think that, in that whole dinner scene, this guy had the WORST table manners of all of them.

Love it! I love seeing pictures of Ayuk, as he is one who seems to often be overlooked. He also looks youthful in the fact his hair has colour too .
fantastic job with this one hon!

SkekLa In reply to queenmoreta [2019-03-24 15:43:50 +0000 UTC]

I´m happy to see you like seeing old Ayuk around, that´s true: the poor thing doesn´t get enough love! (even tho he does have some loyal and good fans! ^^ ) 
He does! his hair´s orangey even at the film (Does Ayuk dye? hmmm ) I am now suspecting Ekt might help him create dyes and applying them to look younger (headcanon mode: on!) 
thanks a lot for the cutest comment and for liking this chart, dear!

fellow head canon mode activated! Oh I do like that idea, it sounds very fitting considering they are vain creatures and wanting to keep their youthful look. How to contend with aging grey/white hair, dye it! brilliant idea there! especially with the added concept of SkekEkt being the one to help create the dye .

Lady Despair: "One Evil Deed, that's all I ask. Oh, you two are such a disappointment!" *(She vents to her two witch daughter, Britney and Whitney.)* "I've given you everything a witch could want, Shabby clothes, a rotten place to live, all the foul tasting food you can eat. And what do I get in return? Nothing! *(They leap into a cauldron, and she slams it with her scepter*) "A BIG FAT ZERO!!"

*(The girls are ringing, as are their ears, as they rumbled out of the cauldron*)

Britney: "We-ahh-We're like, sorry, Momsie."
Whitney: "We totally, will do better, promise!"
Lady Despair: "You two have humiliated me enough, your brother Skek-Sil, he tricked the Te Xuan Zhe Juniper Lee into eating a poisoned apple that nearly killed her with fever dreams. And what have YOU TWO 'Do Nothings' done lately?"
Britney: "Well, I made a girl cry when I criticized her clothes."
Whitney: "And I ripped the wings off a butterfly, and fried a lizard."
Lady Despair: "KID STUFF! I want more serious BAD stuff!"
Whitney: "I could turn a bird into a bat!"

Fantastic work! I love this series so much! SkekAyuk, I think I can relate to him a lot over a love of food   (though I would refrain from the crawlies ) Really amazing work, La, I can't wait to see who is next!

I have a thing for sweet wines (also known as dessert wines) too. The first one I had was from a local winery called Wiederkehr and then others from other producers, Cupcake moscato, Stella Rosa, Cockburn port (first a ruby port and tawny port) Osborne's cream sherry, Quady essensia orange muscat, and a late harvest riesling.

And that's one thing I have in common with the gourmand.

Uhm. Is roast Nebrie on the menu?  The feast scene was one of my favorites.  "More food!!!More food!!!"   Your drawing conjures up that nicely...maybe nice is the wrong word...these fellows were kind of sloppy eaters.  The Gourmand needs a tighter girdle
.
His plump features are perfect Lavinia!  I am tempted to pinch those plump cheeks.  I don't need to tell you that you did a fantastic job rendering his garb.  You always do.  
.
Keep it up.  How many cannon Skeksis do you have yet to draw?

SkekLa In reply to tarpalsfan [2019-02-12 16:21:24 +0000 UTC]

It surely is! *I bet it was a skeksis favourite!
That scene is really priceless, I hearthily agree!
Hahaha, thanks, my dear, Indeed, skeksis nomming might not be the nicest sight...but goodness knows we love them anyways! ^^<3 **dat girdle will be adjusted asap! he needs to stahp foods from falling down his chest omg! XD *
.

I´m immensely happy to know you think I did him justice, dear! hahaha those cheeks, they are begging to be pinched! <3 
Awww, that´s siuper nice from you, thanks for liking the way I draw clothes! (still something difficult to me after all these years of practice!)

.
I will! ^^ There´s still seven to go!

A dear, dear pest!  do come here you!

tarpalsfan In reply to SkekLa [2019-02-12 16:32:40 +0000 UTC]

Down his chest?!   Maybe he should invest in a brassiere?  Or a bib?  
.
I take it back about pinching his cheeks-if he is that hungry, I might withdraw bloody stumps instead of fingers.
.
I will not tease you anymore.  You know I love your great drawings.  Seven more Skeksis to go!  Wonderful!  I will wait for them, knowing they will be fantastic!

Chuckle I love having fun with this guy in my fanfics, (him and his counterpart! Amaj 'aren't you supposed to be on a diet?' Ayuk 'says who?'-and as to the live crawlies, he better hopes that Durn doesn't get them first!.)
Seriously though, great picture! 
These pictures are a great idea SkekLa especially for those people who aren't familiar with them all, especially with all the stuff that has been coming out lately and all that.

XD HAHAHA Oh my those two
Thanks a whole lot for liking these pics and the idea behind thrm *precisely what I´m going after, I really want to help new fans into recognising who´s who amiong the skeksis, and this was the piossible best way I had to go about it! I hope it does help! ^^

Aww, haha, I wouldn´t fear he would as long as you´d be as tall as he is or taller, and he´d realise you aren´t eager at all to be cooked, he´d pass on that I think!
*It´d be more likely from him to get all protective of his goods in thought that you could steal them from him, and then screech about a giant gelfling in the castle **I suspect skeksis, ignoring what we are, would  see all humans as "really big gelflings" )

MidBlueViolet In reply to SkekLa [2019-02-12 17:10:39 +0000 UTC]

Well. I'm 5'9 so that is close to 6 ft. owo

Also, they aren't wrong. We are technically bigger than the gelfings...and stranger than them (in the Skesis eyes. I remember Skeksil explaining that much much better detail in a question once. XD)
