one time I used the ben affleck smoking reaction image in the family group chat and my mom replied with the funniest possible response which was: "mommy doesn't know who the guy is???" and that phrase has not left my brain since. I'll see blorbos on my dash that I don't recognize and I'll be like well it seems mommy doesn't know who the guy is.

One of the worst things about Poppy Playtime in terms of wasted potential is Mommy Long Legs entire character and concept. She's mostly reduced to this "crazy" girl with fake motherly love towards both the player and the other toys by both the game and the fandom, and like. She was just a kid when she was forced to act like a mother to others. No one was there to help her after becoming Mommy Long Legs. She was, by all means, alone, without any adult to trust, and fiercely protective of those who were in her situation – but the game just throws all of that out the window in favor of making her out to be just another enemy! Why!!!!! Even Catnap has more stuff to make him more sympathetic than her! WHY!!!!

I LOVE THE WAY YOU DRAW MOMMY LONG LEGS OGMGMH ???? HOW DO YOU DRAW THEM LIMBS LOL

Thank you!

Mostly it just comes down to a lot of practice in art, and knowing the 'flow' and 'weight' of long, bendable materials. While she's very stretchy and bendy, she's still very rubber/elastic like- this stuff doesn't turn in a 90 degree angle... or even do 'tight' loops (like boxy does) easily. For example, her elbow here is more of a U than a V.

It's also important to note that sometimes, filling out a canvas so it isn't too 'heavy' or 'empty' in certain places can sometimes look better than 'where it would be realistically'.

For example, there's no reason for her back leg to bend like... this, but it makes the scene flow better. It's easy for art of her to get "tangled", ironically.

And finally, the most important thing- the weight of the limbs stays consistent through the whole thing.

What that means is that, unlike something like a tail (which starts thicker and slowly gets skinnier), her limbs will stay the same EXACT thickness through the whole thing. They never get wider or thinner. See above for a good example of that.

You can see here, where I freehanded her, there's inconsistencies in the thickness of her limbs... which makes her look weird, or deflated.

(Of course, all that goes out the window if you're doing something stylized, like this...)

This is hard to draw freehand, and even after a lot of practice, for nice 'finished' pieces, i have a custom brush that i created/use that creates 2 separate lines at the same time at an even width.

Good luck, and I'm happy to offer any more tips or answer questions!

Hi!

So um I think my last ask might have not gone through so second times the charm! Was there a reason in the smiling critters cartoon to include the photo of dogday hugging catnap? was it just background or was it setting the stage for the betrayal of catnap hurting dogday

That's all thanks and I hope you have a great day! :>
