Friends at the Table fanart recs - Pinups, PALISADE, and more

[rigormorphis]

This started as a comment on the weekly community recs post but it got a bit long, so I decided to turn it into a proper post for the comm!

Friends at the Table fandom always has amazing fanart but it's been an even greater feast for my eyes than usual lately because a) a fan (wereshrew-admirer) arranged an FATT Pinup Week last month and b) there've been some wild developments in canon that really got people's creative juices flowing. Here are a few pieces from tumblr that I'm obsessed with.

Most of these are from the show's space seasons (with a couple pinups of Pickman from Sangfielle thrown in) so if anyone reading this is canon-blind but happens to love fun, vibrant alien designs and/or giant mecha, these may appeal to you too.

Pinups and/or NSFW Art

• Broun/Valence + "mundane situations" by wereshrew-admirer - LOVE the casual intimacy of this!
• Aria/Jacqui by wereshrew-admirer - Now THIS is a Jacqui Green. Her shoulders 👀
• Mustard Red + "a hint of violence" by aglennco - Incredible art of the Brink Proxy's worst weirdgirl.
• Grand Magnificent + "entangled" + "lingerie" by wereshrew-admirer - I love everything here, from Grand's expression/posture to the little easter eggs thrown in (his tattoos, what he's working on).
• Pickman + "lingerie" by laminatednewspaper - Her expression! Her bulk! Those girls who desperately want to spend time with her!
• Pickman + "a hint of violence" by wereshrew-admirer - The colours and her "just-got-woken-up" look are fabulous here.
• Tender Sky + "entangled" by madetolooklikeus - I love those soft watercolours so much.

Spoilery Art (all SFW but spoiling the most recent episodes)

• Brnine and Gucci by guccigarantine - I can't stop staring at those faces, the expressions are SO evocative of a moment in canon that made me pause and rewind three entire times before I could finish the episode.
• Brnine and Gucci by courbet-nft - Ditto what I said about the previous piece, and god, that stricken expression!

Other Art (all SFW)

• Headshots of the PALISADE PCs by pleasantchimera - I love this artist's style so much, everyone has such character.
• Eidolon: Cassander Timaeus Berenice by suedeuxnim - A gorgeous rendering of Cass's shift from player character to (propagandistic) historical figure.
• Belltower vs. Saint Dawn by damage-ko - "A mecha fight with romantic tension" indeed!
• Brnine, haunted by violentandmagnificent - Those colours are so good I want to taste them.
• A few Phrygian pieces by guccigarantine - Absolutely outstanding Phrygian! The frog war form is especially big-brained.
• Cori and Devotion by luketaluketa - The scale! The colours! The claustophobia of it! It's beautiful and so unsettling.
