I'm sure Valentino still has a Marc helmet that he could never bring himself to throw away. He tried many times but never really could, so he has it hidden somewhere in the big white mansion he lives in. Whenever he gets a sudden wave of nostalgia, he always goes and checks on it. Maybe one day, Giulietta, while playing, finds it and starts touching it, admiring the colors. Vale finds her trying to put the helmet on herself, and he gets all panicked about it.
been running into this problem with multiple pieces of art i'm taken with lately. every author has a lot of trouble writing characters with more extreme political views than their own and actually examining what their views mean
Still haven't watched season 2 of The Witcher. I HAVE moved out of my parent's house into a house with my fiance who I am marrying in two days (October 31st)! I have two dogs and a wonderful home and a soon to be husband that I adore. Lots of life changes happened to me in the past year and it's been a lot. I've been working on art a lot - maybe looking into a tattoo apprenticeship? I currently am the manager of a used bookstore. My life is very different than it was a year ago and I couldn't be more grateful. I'm here, I'm alive. I've just been dormant because I felt bad not watching season 2. I still may or may not watch it and I may not produce a lot of content for a while, but I HAVE been creating IRL. Lots of art practice.
hi friends who do digital art, can you help me out?
what is everyone currently using? is anyone using a tablet/drawing pad/whatever? anyone have any advice on improving my work flow?
im looking to upgrade to a tablet bc i am tired of sketching, taking a photo in good light with my phone (because it never picks up on my scanner), lining it in Sai, and then if i want to shade sending that ish over to photoshop. all using a mouse lmao.
memes aside ; volgin really is terrified of thunderstorms.
my headcanon is that his lightning powers come from having been experimented on as a young man ( around his mid 20s, after his boxing career but before his military career ) & the experiments were brutal. he was frequently electrocuted to test how much he could withstand and when he finally gained control of his own powers - even setting off lightning himself would result in him being electrocuted / heavily wounded.
this made him initially very scared of his own powers & lightning as a whole.
anyone can tell you, when you feel some sort of pain - it isn't something you want to experience again. in particular, if it's traumatic - you'll develop a fear of going through it again. for volgin, this was the case.
more-so when he experienced his first thunderstorm and got electrocuted so badly, it gave him the scars that run across the front of his face. now, he fears thunderstorms. all too aware of the damage that they can do to him.
at the end of mgs3, when he decides to brave a storm in order to catch snake - it isn't necessarily that he wants to face it - it's that his hand is forced. by this stage, he essentially knows that it's a suicide mission but, if he doesn't get snake back - he'd probably face a fate worse than death.
unfortunately for volgin, shit still goes south & he still ends up with a fate worse than death, becoming the man on fire.
