Do you have any Eddie x Heather headcanons?

Hmm if I’m being honest I’m not huge on hellguard but @queenimmadolla is! They’re the one that requested the Heather x Eddie art I did a while ago

[kitmon]

Men never cease to disappoint me… except you fanon Eddie Munson, you can do no wrong

[kitmon]

*ೃ༄ Shuffle your ‘On Repeat’ playlist, and list the first ten songs that play! Then, tag ten people!

@queenimmadolla my beloved has called upon me! I love love love music, especially talking about it and I could potentially recommend some good stuff in the process!

1. Brick and Glue - Rose Chronicles (sickeningly bittersweet and beautiful, so full of emotion that I’m nearly moved to tears every time)

2. Turning Point - Suzanne Doucet (this is what you hear before you die but instead of it being dreadful it’s every beautiful memory you’ve ever experienced)

3. The Breaking Hands - The Gun Club (angst but make it jaunty and don’t forget the synth bells)

4. Autopilot - Seam (simple and yet so moving and nostalgic)

5. The Downtown Lights - The Blue Nile (that twinkly intro gets me every time, additionally, the best song to fall asleep to)

6. Tennis Racket - The Autocollants (so sweet and shy, it feels like having a schoolyard crush)

7. Why Do You Love Me? - Cocteau Twins, Harold Budd (a more mature kind of falling in love where it’s deep and rich and all consuming)

8. Thinking Of You Thinking Of Me - Bogdan Raczynski (mmm no words, just vibes, alternatively, aphex twin adjacent)

9. December - Dodecahedron (Jeff Buckley but the reverb goes wild)

10. 2 Late - The Cure (the most underrated cure song of all time and I mean that with my whole heart; most relatable love song they ever wrote and it’s perfect for maladaptive daydreaming)

All right! That’s all! Hopefully you found something you liked, if you listen to any of these please please let me know what you thought of them!

I only have like 3 mutuals so I shall tag the only two that haven’t done this @dadsbongos @powderblueblood

Stranger Fans 4 Humankind

Meet Verena & Abdallah | Current Action: Supporting Operation Olive Branch & Abdallah's family in Gaza

[This fundraiser is vetted through Operation Olive Branch.]

Stranger Fans 4 Humankind is boosting the fundraiser of Verena & Abdallah to help Abdallah's family escape Gaza to safety. The ask is small - $5 (€5) or simply your time! Together we can make a huge difference for one family.

Abdallah is a medical student in Munich, Germany, and also works at a local nursing home. He is pictured above with his fiancée Verena, who is assisting with the fundraiser for his family who are trapped in Gaza.

Abdallah's 71-year-old father has lymphoma and urgently needs medical treatment. His sister is caring for four minor children amidst the crisis in Gaza. The family lives in constant fear of bombings, living with no electricity and struggling to get food.

Amid power outages and dwindling food supplies, my fiancée’s sister’s son battles fire and wood outside to prepare food. The food supplied by organizations is often expired and is no longer edible. The emergency in Gaza is more urgent than ever. 

Read more about Abdallah's family, along with what you can do to support this effort through Stranger Fans 4 Humankind!

i’m pretty sure i’m gonna do it regardless, but let me poll the audience so i know what i might be working with. if i joined ficsforgaza, and wrote for stranger things characters (yes, i would be putting a lot of my own works aside—but it’s the bigger picture here, my fics will always be there and it’s looking like Gaza might not, and that is fucking insane), would you donate for a customized fic?

would love to see jonathan and eddie re-(because they TOTALLY knew each other the whole time) meeting 👀

or maybe even heather and eddie coming face to face (doesn’t have to be shippy—i just need to see them being haters in the same frame for sanity purposes)

Oh girl FINALLY an excuse to draw Heather! I love her so much it’s actually not even funny 😭

This is obviously not canon Heather, I love her too, but I dunno, I wanted to give some rep for the Afro-Latinas!

So I took elements of canon Heather and your OC Lisa from your moodboard and I kinda just mashed them together, I hope that’s alright!

[kitmon]

Awwww stahp! You’re too freaking nice!

Omg PLEASE tell me me a movie character you think of when you see my handle!! This will totally make my day!!!

you are SUCH a comfort character, but in a cool way—and you do it so effortlessly, which is why I think of my comfort character from sisterhood of the traveling pants, tibby rollins, whenever i see your tumblr handle. always ahead of everyone else while simultaneously relishing in the past and she’s incredibly creative, too, just like you 🥹🙂‍↕️🩷

[kitmon]

Hi all—our blog no longer pops up in tumblr searches, and our posts aren’t consistently showing up on the dash, so we have a hunch that we’re shadowbanned. It’s important that we all keep reblogging posts and spreading the word about @ficsforgaza so that our effort doesn’t lose momentum!

[kitmon]

Drawing my Stranger Things boyfriends has really gotten me out of my art rut so if your interested, send me an ask with some requests! They can include silly scenarios, specific characters from the show, an au or two! I likely won’t draw everything just because of time and interest but I’ll try to get out the ones that interest me! I probably won’t draw any ship art just cuz I’m very picky about that kinda stuff but don’t be afraid to send other ideas!

A quick sketch for my lovie @queenimmadolla of her boyfriend, Stevie

[kitmon]

Needed to capture the sheer man-sluttiness. You know for a FACT him and Steve pull up looking like this

as soon as the temperature gets above 70 degrees.

“If I wanted to see a twig and some berries, I’d take a walk by the creek.”

Some more OC and Eddie in their Summer Camp AU!!

You get it, they’d have to hold me back from biting him like a psyched up chihuahua

It’s okay, Dylan, this is exactly the response I was looking for lmao NO WORDS NEEDED

Eddie Munson and my self-insert OC in a Summer Camp AU, perhaps a few slasher elements to come 👀

Ditch the equestrian activities, those thighs are perfect for riding 😌

We have a similar styles but i cant draw curls for shit, can i have some tips on how you draw eddies hair?

Totally! And thanks so much for sending in an ask! I love answering them!

Ok, so, to be 100% honest I’m not that great at drawing curls either. Even in drawing Eddie’s hair, nothing ever really curls it kinda just waves and flicks so it gives the illusion of curlier hair. I also find that layering and making the hair look busier can also give off that illusion.

Let me give some examples of that:

Another example:

Another way to help define a hairstyle as being curly:

^^^ Even in this sketch of my most recent drawing of Eddie, before I start defining the curls, I’m just showing his hair texture through silhouette!

Now some techniques I use!

I think the most helpful technique I can give is the subtractive method:

I used it here in this portrait of Robert Plant I did and…

^^^ Here!

Basically what you do is you take a big brush, lay your shapes down and then go ham with an eraser brush.

And even if this style isn’t your thing, I’ll sometimes still use it to help me understand the movement and shape and layers of everything before going over it and refining it!

Additionally, use reference. It’s always super helpful to actually see how real hair moves.

The way I draw hair is also super indicative of the artists I admire and follow so I’ll list some artists below that I think draw hair really well:

Alberto Mielgo (@albertomielgo on ig)

San (@imsanlee on tiktok)

Octoboogie (@octoboogie here and on tiktok)

Mopidona (@mopidona on ig)

Moose (@bastard.shark on tiktok)

Lain (@badbadjudy on tiktok)

Apple (@a99ple on ig)

I also know one nsfw artists on twitter that I can share with you through DM if you’re really interested!

Sorry for rambling, I hope this was at least a little bit helpful!
