My boy finally has his skin tone ! And most of his blushing/face up too (I just need to re-do the eyebrow, somehow the sealant wiped them out ?)
I've read bjd had a tendency to have their resin stain with clothes... I have the opposite problem. The paint stain my hands ! x') and that is after four layer of sealant. Idk how this watercolor ink still bleed through. Next time maybe I'll start with glossy sealant for extra strength?

things you can tell people if they ask you about the scars on your face:
- "large scale worm attack"
- "clowns tried to steal my skin but I got away"
- "nearly got overtaken by the evil fog"
- "cursed door incident"
- "the angles cut me when I try to think"
- "a cop bit me"
- "gym membership went horribly wrong"
- "rock concert went horribly wrong"
- "got stuck underground for eight months"
- "the last girl I kissed was reallyyyy hot. literally"
- "stared at the void (it stared back)"
- "got rid of the death vines but at what cost"
- "ask me again and I'll give you fucking vertigo"
- "I saw too much and now I bear the marks of my hubris"
- "the spiders. they want out ::::)"

drew some more perns just now.. it's been years but i remember the wings on the covers of some of the books being insect-like and the text backs this up a little in places. i thought a variable wing morphology would be fun, the propatagium can be extended or relaxed similar to slats on a plane to increase wing surface area and lift at low airspeeds. here we have a light and fast blue (top) and a more robust brown (bottom)

Was reminded (because I am kinda terrible at social media) that I ought to let people know I made an art history video about the cave art in Lascaux: How it was made; what pigments and what ingenious art tools were used (Paleolithic mouth-powered airbrushes!); and the historical development of ideas of the Paleolithic and how they were shaped by prejudices of the time.
And I bust some myths:
The cave paintings and engravings had nothing to do with hunting. The animals that people of the time hunted don't show up in the cave art.
It is very unlikely that men made that art. There has not yet been found any physical evidence of adult men in any of the decorated caves of France and Spain -- but there are numerous examples of footprints and finger-marks of smaller people, from woman-sized down to baby-sized, and groups of children alongide woman-sized footprints.
For some weird reason most of the scholarship on Lascaux identifies these smaller footprints as "adolescent boys" for no apparent reason apart from, well, sexism. The increasingly unlikely and awkward contortions made to rationalize how half-grown boy children made this magnificent art, rather than any acknowledgement that perhaps experienced adult women artists had a hand in it, feel kinda bizarre to me.
Anyway, here's my art history video. It's educational!

How do you feel about Callum Kerr? I don't know if you know about him, he's 30 years old, he has a wife and child, and he's an actor with an upcoming role on Wheel of Time. I feel like you would definitely like Andrew Callum Kerr if you watched a show he's going to appear in, just not Wheel of Time since I don't know if you'd like that show because I haven't seen it.
this guy looks like ai generated human handsome squidward

i wish every single tv show film anything ever in existence showed characters’ skin the way young royals does because maybe then i wouldn’t have spent my adolescence trying desperately to cure something that didn’t need to be cured
