#*with no distinct features

[psalmsofpsychosis]

okay but literally right now we have a problem with everything being so repetitive and boring because we live in very anti-interpretation times. Everyone just sees something, adopts the most surface level superficial image of it, and recreates it, and then you have a situation in which everything is a copy of a copy of a copy and everything is so overdone and everyone is doing the same thing so many fucking times and somehow they still miss the charm and the essence of the original thing.

And it's because y'all are so vehemently against interpretation. I'm literally begging everyone to look 3 millimetres beyond the surface aesthetics of what they're inspired by and interpret it. Like i literally do not care about the curtains being blue dude lmao STOP GIVING ME BLUE CURTAINS BECAUSE YOU THINK THEY'RE CULTURALLY KNOWN AND THUS A UNIFYING CUTE ELEMENT IT WAS NEVER ABOUT THE FUCKING CURTAINS AND THE CHARM WAS IN THE CONTEXT, YOU DECONTEXTUALIZING AESTHETICS AND SLAPPING THEM ON TOP OF YOUR POSTMODERN CREATION DOES NOT MAKE IT NEW AND DOES NOT MAKE IT INTERESTING

for the love of gods y'all, interpret things. And work with your interpretation. That is the only source of true creativity, copying does not save you.

If i got anything from the first grill the grid, it’s that no one on the grid knows what Charles actually looks like 💀

And that Charles can recognize Max in 0.000016 seconds from 3 grainy pixels probably.

I haven’t watched Dungeon Meshi, but I always enjoy the dashboard osmosis experience and have a peculiar visual memory. Here is what I believe Dungeon Meshi to be mostly about. No complicating experiences with the text, or indeed character references, fed into this extremely clear vision, which I believe I torrented directly from the astral plane at the same time as the creator was logged on

An interim comic! Rewinding to the first time my Shep met Garrus while I work on the next part. I'm halfway done the planning stage, but I needed to take a break and do something 'simpler' for a bit (this doesn't have BGs so it counts in my mind ok).

For anyone who doesn't know it, the song in Shepard's head

Also as a heads up, while I generally try to keep Shepard's appearance vague in any comic where I can get away with it, I'll be tagging any comics where she's definitively my Shepard with #SharkyShepard.

i'm 99.99% sure it won't happen but a part of me hopes that these guys show up at some point, if not in da4

i just think they're neat

edit: Ghilan'nain confirmed as one of da4's big bads, so maybe???

Do u have tips on drawing someones likeness. Like so their face to actually look like them.

oooooh anon this is a really good question, and one i am always struggling with haha. likeness is such a hard thing to get right!! first things first and this is what i always say: reference is ur best friend. gather what u can from wherever u can. get more than u think u need. look at the person from different angles, take note of spacing between facial features and the very rough shapes of those features. when i start trying to draw someone i try to focus on proportions and shapes first!

so like rn im trying to draw all these guys. u know these guys and how they look. i dont usually do this but for sake of explanation here’s a visual of what im thinking of…. i have my ref and then i try to break it down to a simpler version in my head so i dont immediately get caught up in details. doing a quick sketch over ur ref can also be helpful, u can feel/see the proportions and shapes clearer!

is this anything….. i dont feel like im super great at capturing likeness lol its always something i struggle with. the more u look at and draw ur guys the more familiar u will become with their weird faces and the easier it will be

I luv the sharp teeth on Vega, are those like her real teeth or you just making a joke?

I’m imagining her as a pup and Wends and Enid having to put protective plastic on table and chair legs cause she’s a chewer

You mean the extra sharp teeth when she's all tiny? That's just how I like to draw her teeth when chibi. Just to show her resemblance to Enid, since I do the same thing with her. I like to make my chibi's distinct so you can tell who's who even if you only see their face

They probably did used to do that tho

"when ur reading an x reader fic and the author blatantly mischaracterizes u 🤮" "I would NOT fucking say that" idk man.........I feel like reading x reader stuff requires you to be.......okay w/a certain level of roleplay. like yeah, you might not be this exact type of person—or maybe even the slightest bit like them. but, for the duration of the fic, you ARE. that's what's kind of neat about them. you get to step into another version of yourself and walk around your favorite stories. call that latent theater kid energy or whatever. but I dig it. she doesn't have to BE me, she's just me for now. and I'm buckled IN
