its my impression only,or i feel like Mitzi looks like if Joan crawlford and clara bow were the same being?

Like,am i getting crazy?

It's not crazy. Mitzi's looks are pretty heavily inspired by Clara Bow, and other stars/starlets of the silent era who wore a similar look. The cherub face, cupid bow lips, and dramatic eyes were very much in style in the 1920s.

Mitzi's got a much softer, rounder face than Joan Crawford in my mind. Crawford had bone structure to die for, but I can see what you're getting at, I think, around the eyes and brows. Here's Joan's 1920s look, where the photographer is really trying to emphasize eyes and lips while seemingly downplaying her facial structure. Her 1930s look really embraces the fact that she has an entire face.

so in regards to some recent community events

there have been some events happening in the community that unfortunately remind me of old happenings in previous fandoms, so I'd like to just put my two cents out there about the situation.

Mewtwo is overall pretty simple character design wise with a pretty simple palette. You'd seen how I have made some variations with a limited palette and they all still have some connection to the original purple and pink, or green and yellow. Because of that I know that I can't honestly expect someone out there might make a similar mewtwo character with colours close by, assuming that can never happen by coincidence is just unreasonable on my part, even when you add stripes as a nod to mewtwo's clone starters

So with that being said I think one needs to be reminded in this community that similarities are going to happen, be either colours, stripes, spots, accessories like glasses or scarves and not one of us owns that aspect of a design because sometimes you can only do so much with them while still trying to stay true to the original mewtwo

If there IS ever a situation where you might think perhaps there is another person out there who's designs lean closer to yours you should ask yourself first, is this a common thing? Does this artist have a history of copying everyone else, do they copy story ideas too or is it just in terms of appearance?

Once you consider that one should ask themself, how do I approach this? Simple, you send them a private message and you ask them. I can guarantee this community for the most part is pretty reasonable and I doubt the receiving end will bite your head off for asking. What shouldn't you do? smear them, making public call out posts accusing said person of theft with no evidence

That is what people did in my old community for the Lion King, and believe me when I was much younger I fell for the trap of making call out journals on thieves myself but that will never make the problem better, it just escalates the situation and makes it more complicated and stressful. I have dealt with genuine copycats in the lion king community, I have someone who has leeched onto both character aspects and story beats from me for fifteen years and counting at this point so at this point in my online career I've gotten better at telling coincidence from purposeful copying or theft. And the Lion King fandom has devolved into a sea of finger pointing and accusations, stealing and fighting. I've seen it happen every now and then here in the mewtwo and mew community now

Do not turn this community into what the Lion King turned into, we can be better than that, we can be adults and face the matter like adults, we can't be reactionary, we can't be twitter

Asking this broadly, appreciative of any insight people have:

Lately I've seen a huge, sudden influx of asks requesting support for Gaza gofundmes. These characteristics of "sudden influx out of nowhere", "similarly-worded asks", "coming from nearly-blank blogs that have only existed for a few days with very few posts" are all--historically--the exact calling-cards of tumblr donation scams.

BUT... I don't know if this might be different, due to specific circumstances. Like potentially "tumblr is a useful source for donations" is a message that recently made its way through refugee circles. Given something like that is possible, I don't want to dismiss this off-hand. But I do not want to give to any scammers.

Have people seen this? Are there any Palestinian sources on tumblr talking about this? I want to report scammers, and I want to support real gofundmes, so getting this right feels important.

Have you ever wanted to play a cute monster taming game with lots of love and heart put into every inch and corner of it by a Team of fantastically talented artists?

Me too!! Too bad it got cancelled literally a few weeks before it was going to be anounced!

Artist Nicholas Kole on twitter along with many other talented artists have been sharing their work of nearly 4 years on this game. I cant imagine the heartbreak of working so hard on this project only for it to get canceled right before Release and everyone on the Team to get laid off.

It was meant to be an open world, minecraft inspired builder, with all sorts of unique creatures with various skins, variations depending on biomes, and even petting animations. That you could tame! It also had a large amount of beautiful and unique character customization. Here's some of the art ( NOT MY ART ) for the project!

Apparently alot of this game was near finished, coded, etc! ( ART ABOVE IS BY NICHOLAS KOLE , JOHANNES FIGLHUBER, INES MARSAL, AND MARIA LOBANOVA )

I dont know if the artists can look into crowdfunding ( the Studio still may own the IP ) , but myself and a few others have been trying to get the hashtag #bringbackprojectdragon get some traction on twitter! Maybe if the internet raises enough stink, the Studio might pay attention. Im not sure how likely that is but I desperately want thus game to exsist, it would be a dream game for me and many others im sure. So please consider joining in if you have a twitter.
