day 1821 - half a decade!
redraw of day 1, 364, and 1000, but with a twist - now it's also my frogsona :D
for now i'll be taking a (maybe permanent) break for at least the rest of the year! see you in 2025!
previous versions for comparison below!
#amphibian#frog#frogsona#self#actaully i used a toad for reference i like their shape most#so i guess my frogsona is technically a toad (which is just a more specific frog but. you know)#also i cannot stress enough everyone has been so kind throughout the years it's been a pleasure to know my art has brightened your days :)#ok one funny thing is#i've been looking through the old art reminiscing. seeeing if i can pick a favorite per 100 days (the art is sorted in folders of 100 each)#and every single folder i look through i can't pick a favorite because i like so many of them#and every tsingle folder i think to myself 'oh that was a good 100 days there's lots of great ones'#even the earliest days where my anatomy was pretty terrible and my style was so different from what i like now. it's sitll great#it feels really great to be able to look back at my art and think that :)#and my favorites range from ones that are technically skilled to just cute or funny ideas#i think it's a good reminder to myself that art doesn't have to be perfect to be good :)#another important thing im realizing is a majority of my favorites are the ones that tell a story or joke in some way#a scene and/or background do SO MUCH for my own enjoyment of my art#even just some shapes and color in the background elevate it imo

If the bad kids played Minecraft
Gorgug: redstone builder my guy loves making rollercoasters and security systems and anything redstone for the others, loves the enchantment table and fights monsters purely for xp, has a little farm of rainbow sheep and flowers, his workshop looks like a flower (Fabian may or may not have made it he just came to the joint world and found it there one day)
Fabian: achievement maniac he must prove that he is the best at the game, loves all the fortresses and like the raids and all of that, fights any monster he sees and brings the spoils back to Adaine for her building, hoards all the gold and diamonds he finds and refuses to share, once killed a piglin on accident and had to give all of his gold to Fig, main person who finds and downloads mods for everyone (he has the nicest computer after all), has a list of which person got one mod after everyone started fighting about who requested a shaders mod that just makes everything look really pretty but also insanely slows everyoneâs fps (it was Gorgug he liked how it looked)
Fig: trying to make and collect everything she physically can and if she canât she will find a way, has about a million mods installed because why not (her personal world is like 4 fps), ârules the netherâ (Adaine turned a fortress into a castle for her and she only trades with piglins), has at least one cd playing at any time and tries to start a campaign for one of her songs to become an official cd (it almost works)
Riz: automates everything and anything he can, just does insane experiments for funsies, has a gang of iron golems and a village that he rules with an iron fist (is very offended that fig refuses to trade with his villagers, has waged war on the nether multiple times but Fabian (his âknightâ) and Gorgug (Figs âknightâ) refuse to fight each other), Kristen is banned because she keeps trying to start a rebellion
Adaine: the builderrr girlie likes her games on peaceful and her structures luxurious, she made a castle for all of her friends in her joint world (even if Fig and Riz usually sleep in their kingdoms), does not know how to fight in the slightest so she just enlists Fabian and Gorgug (Riz makes her pay to enlist Fabian in tnt no Adaine he is not making another nuke what are you talking about), genuinely a good archer but freaks out anytime she sees a monster and becomes instantly useless so she mainly uses it for hunting purposes
Kristen: loves mining, also has a million pets like if she can find a way to make it a pet she will (she once tamed a polar bear nobody knows how), her room in Adaineâs castle is in the basement with little mining carts that Gorgug made her that go throughout basically their whole world, runs as fast as she can away from any Warden chamber (she cannot fight), has an army of snowmen in a cage, technically has a fee for being the blacksmith of the group but forgets every time, has a White House built somewhere in the world after the school election
Bonus!
Ayda: Crafts books so she can write in them, lives in Figs castle in another room than Fig (for the drama, according to Fig)(âthe fans will love it!â âMy love who are you talking about nobody is watching usâ âexcuse you my tumble audience is very much enjoying our live-blogged tragic loveâ âmy paramour we are literal blocksâ), rotates between living there and living in the tallest tower in Adaineâs castle, is fascinated by Gorgugs inventions
Ragh: Fighter, insists on only using his bare fists, drinks any potion he finds, is the only person willing to go on raids with Fabian and Gorgug, figured out a way to play bloodrush in game, loves elytraâs, lives in a dirt hut that is big enough for him to stand in next to a bed and nothing else, Adaine built him a room (that looks like a gym) in her castle but he prefers dirt hut
Aelwyn: Only on there for the cats, steals Kristenâs cats any chance she gets, surprisingly really good at fighting but refuses to fight unless absolutely necessary, has one mod on for herself and itâs the shapeshifting mod (no clue if thatâs a mod or part of a game mode) so she can prank Adaine anytime she wants, loves making tnt even if she doesnât use it (âthe goblin uses it in funny waysâ âAelwyn he is exploding a villageâ âlike I said funnyâ), fucking hates goats and polar bears for no reason
#this was not meant to be this long#originally this was supposed to be just their playstyles (like the builder and the miner)#it morphed into this#fun fact: Gorgug lives in a wizard tower that is a block shorter than Aydas (Fig added the block)#Fabian has a pirate ship house attached to the castle with its own docks that he goes fishing off of#Figs room in the castle is just a bed floating above a lava pit that has a parkour course to get to it#(Adaine makes her put everything in a chest before doing it)#and Rizâs room is just covered in wool and beds and chests (Adaine still manages to make it look good)#kristen has a sign above the elevator (that Gorgug made) to her room that just says Mr President#autism (mads) speaks#fantasy high#dimension 20#fhjy#d20#fantasy high junior year#d20 fantasy high#d20 fh#dimension 20 fantasy high#kristen applebees#riz gukgak#fabian seacaster#fabian aramais seacaster#gorgug thistlespring#adaine abernant#aelwyn abernant#ayda aguefort#fig faeth#ragh barkrock#your honor I love them#the bad kids

And there's a silence so soft it's only memory
Like the way your voice always sounds when you sing to me
But I can't hear it now
#arcane#arcane season two#arcane spoilers#spoilers#caitlyn kiramman#cassandra kiramman#there's something so personal about this clip#the finality of it all#that last look you immortalise in your mind until the end#ive rewatched this so many times now i lost count but rewatching it is cathartic in a way#and the song elevates it in ways i can't explain#but the grief is there#oh how the grief is there#mine#not art

even at this point in the story and with the romance well and truly confirmed it's very possible that lucanis has never seen even a sliver of rye's naked skin below the throat. very likely no one on the team has yet except possibly emmrich if rye got hurt in battle and needed help patching it up. high-necked watcher garb with gloves and all stay ON at all times. thank god for rye's sake that lucanis' history of romantic interest indicates that surprise bitch he could be kind of into that fhsdkjfas
#I'm a cool laid-back relaxed punk rock sort of leader and also person rook says during the solas regret study group meetings#sitting there with their meticulously gloved hands tightly balled into fists against the arms of their chair fhdsjkfhas#I think most of them know him well enough by now to realize exactly how full of shit he is about that tho lol#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#oc: Ellaryen Ingellvar#Lucanis Dellamorte#rook x lucanis#rookanis#this is very much a two-way slow burn situation hahaha at least rye gets to gaze at lucanis' bare forearms during meetings#lucanis has to settle for having Feelings whenever he sees rye with their hair down#or the very rare and precious times they'll take their gloves off for a moment#(I don't get the sense that he minds)#one of my first ideas for their relationship even back before I even decided I was going to do the romance#was rook anxiously fussing over their clothes the day they were going back to the necropolis for the first time while lucanis looked on#in quiet bemusement as he realized he'd never seen rook be openly *nervous* before. 'are my robes... does this look...'#lucanis in the elevator down to the necropolis depths trying not to look at all the walking skeletons#and with the patience of a man who once waited four hours in the market for illario to try on gloves: 'your robes are flawless#(on this the third time you asked as well). do not worry about it. was that. was that a floating skull we just passed by'#'ah yes! professor korevel tends to have his morning walks for contemplation around this time between grading papers'#'...without legs?'/'he always said those just got in the way most of the time'#and rye finally admitting '...it's been a while since I was home'#and in that moment a common understanding dawning. 'ah. I -- think I understand the feeling'/'yeah...'#and basically the rest is history lol

unhinged observation - we all know their colours don't match the traditional ones, but I've never noticed before that on the portraits they put Jeff in red and Virgil in green, but then they swap them over when we actually see them. In fact, //pause while Len goes to look// when they're in TB3, they're all wearing red - like all the space-rated suits, specifically are red. //Goes to check again// and Gordon and Virg are in green with TB2 in the opening rescue to match Jeff as well.
Does that mean, in 2004 verse, they wear whichever colour matches the 'bird they're currently flying because other than them needing 5 suits each... that's pretty cool can't lie good for them
ignoring the fact they look the same, I can be like ??? well yellow must be wetsuits, red is space rated?? Green is ?? tougher maybe, blue is for however many G's TB1 hits a body with when they're going crazy speeds, orange is a spacesuit for living in space etc etc
#Thunderbirds 2004#It's like they're saying 'yeah Jeff's the astronaut' with the portraits which is VERY important to me personally in life#Alan you get yellow bc your first rescue used tb4 congrats ur officially a lil sunshine baby#John you get orange bc you have carrot hair in ur future look out man#Or just bc tb5 has that orange stripe#but it's probably the hair right#Were you all expecting a detailed analysis of the 2004 movie from me this week I bet you werent but here you go!#I've been under a rock for like a year and that tbirds concert hit me with a stick and it's so nice to ???? feel like myself ?????#hello hyperfixation I've missed you#I wonder if swapping colours causes trouble in the field - like - 'that nice man in green helped me!' 'who tf was wearing green today????'#It also implies that they can all fly all of the Thunderbirds whenever needed#which is very practical of them#I love the classic TOS Space Monitor rotation#but I guess orange John has the //handwaves the science// spaaaaace elevator#to rock up home whenever he likes in TAG so there's less need for it

fun fact about me at least is that it is easier to draw a whole scenes one after another than it is to draw a close shots of characters just standing there over and over
#we have. a shot of every toon just standing there (looking at the elevator door waiting for it to open) and now i have to do something simi#similar w all their twisteds. similarly just standing and looking#Iâve already had more headache w that shot than i Ever did drawing the shots of the toons having just been created w delilah#headache w those shots*#and those shots were full body and involved At Least two characters. sometimes 3#so i get the feeling drawing these upcoming shots of all their twisteds is going to be hell HDHSJSJJSJS#well a few of them get actually literally albeit cartoonishly murdered in the upcoming scenes so i guess thatâs my justice#but yeah funny that the animatic of âkill all your friendsâ only has twisteds(decidedly not friends) getting killed#this is bc i like the toons & dontwant them to get hurt. the twisteds are like rabid animals & should be put out of their misery. to me#you could probably rehabilitate twisted glisten but donât worry he doesnât get killed#also yeah my sibling & i are fans of âthe twisteds are fucked up clones of the toonsâ bc. we like them & donât want them to get hurt HDSKHD#. catch me talking abt my animatic so I donât have to work on it JSNSJSJNSJSNW#words from the monarch#progress

Not sure if this is an odd question - if someone were to draw characters like Machete as humans, is that a thing you'd find amusing/like to see, or do you consider that to defeat the purpose of how you made him?
I ask this as someone who loves your work but is notoriously bad at drawing anthros, but also just because I think the philosophy behind how and why people design characters is very cool.
Have a great day!
I've been asked this a couple of times within past few weeks and I haven't managed to come up with an answer until now.
The thing is, I don't really know what my characters would look like as humans myself, and an overwhelming part of me doesn't want to find out ´v`' I'm not sure if their designs would translate to human form very well at all.
I do appreciate the fact that you asked though! I understand it's agonizing when you want to draw something outside of your area of expertise, it's the same thing with me and making fan art of human characters. I'm sincerely very flattered that you liked my guys enough to consider drawing them. Unfortunately I don't think I'm fully comfortable with humanizations of my characters, at the time at least.
#to me a big part of the appeal of furry/anthro/animal characters is that they don't resemble any existing people#you can't look at Machete and say your next door neighbor or dentist or this drummer in a band looks just like him#no one ever can#and I don't know I guess I just like the idea that they're completely exclusive to fiction and art and imagination#it elevates them in a sense#and humanizing them would take away some of that charm#but that's just my specific opinion and way to look at things#answered#littledudewizard

listen itâs none of my business but when you say âBilbo would have been better for taking the Ringâ and then state âFrodoâs character was mishandledâ I think maybe you like the Lord of the Rings inside your head more than the one actually written đ as if it wasnât stated multiple times both in the text and by Tolkien himself why Frodo was the Ringbearer. Pleeeeeaaaase PLEEEEAAASE stop giving me gray hairs and take an interest in the text you read and itâs deeper meanings beyond power scaling characters, favoritism and finding the âmost efficient way to take the ring to Mordorâ. The debates about who should have taken the Ring are the exact same as âthey should have flown the eagles to Mordorâ except itâs spoken by people who genuinely are avid fans of the books and movies.
#frodo baggins#bilbo baggins#itâs so dire out here man#this was an actual opinion I just saw. unfortunately#at least itâs rarer now but I still see the incredible common opinion that Frodo âwasnât the right person for the jobâ or whatever#THATS NOT THE POINTâŚ. PLEASE#why are there so many people who just donât like Frodo. why donât you like him. quickly.#is it because he fails. bc newsflash. EVERY SINGLE BEING ON MIDDLE EARTH THAT COULD TAKE THE RING WOULD HAVE FAILED. THATS THE POINT!!!!!!!#is it bc heâs not a typical âheroâs journeyâ fighter?? bc then I have to ask if you absorbed the âI hate fighting and warâ sentiment at all#bc Tolkien tried to make it clear in each of his more âtypicalâ fighting heroes that the act of fighting did not elevate them over others#and that in many ways it was better to find peaceful solutions rather than violent ones.#would Bilbo have resisted more? hard to say!! he held the Ring for a VERY long time but at the same time the Ring wasnât âawakeâ.#to Bilboâs enduring credit he held that thing for 60 years before showing corruption#when others that touched the Ring showed corruption INSTANTLY#but at the same time when Sauron began to awaken it and call for it Bilbo DID in fact fall to its power!!#he wasnât immune!!#neither was Samwise for that matter. no more than Frodo was!!!#augh. my heart hurts man#people give Frodo shit for being a gentle soul who suffered inward more than outward and not returning âvictoriousâ#but he did all he could. he did all anyone could. why is that not enough for you people?#it was enough for Tolkien. it was enough for every wise being on Middle Earth. it was enough for those who understood the sacrifice.#Frodo isnât even a âpassive heroâ. sure he gets a ton of stuff done TO him and his deeds arenât as visible as other characters.#but every single step towards Mordor was a great action. the very act of carrying the Ring forward moves the story and quest along.#that is an active character. his actions (traveling forward despite bearing the Ring and Morgul wound) are integral to the story#you expect him to do that AND be slaying beasts and commanding others?? the same folly Boromir had. the same way the Ring tempted Sam#cmon. thereâs a beautiful world and a beautiful story being told and youâre missing it. let me show you how beautiful it is.#making everything about a single character you favor even if it doesnât make sense textually is a disservice to the story you enjoy.#the entire world and all the characters of lotr are so compelling even if you donât like them!!! why ignore that?#itâs the world and people your character lives with!!! look at them!!

Thinking about how all the remaining men are suffering. Thinking about how Eurylochus trying to elevate just a bit of that suffering (hunger) is the final nail in the coffin of their journey. Thinking about Penelopeâs voice singing âLet me take the suffering fromâŚâ and her voice doesnât finish, but then Odysseus is pointing towards his crew. A tragic, heartwrenching decision that in some ways could be seen as him âtakingâ their suffering by choosing to end their lives
#not sure of a better way to word this atm itâs just a thought that keeps crossing my mind#the inherent sadness relief and feeling like there is no other choice to get to your end goal#mixed with the relinquishing of suffering by death#even though itâs not your suffering you are elevating. you are making yours worse#but in a horrible twisted way also ending the suffering of your crew for good?#itâs NOT mercy for the crew. itâs Odysseus trying to get home. itâs Odysseus doing anything to get home.#but if you look at it from an outside view it has hints of mercy. just the littlest glimmers of mercy.#epic the musical#personal

visited geiranger today đâđź
#my dead honest review is that the waterfalls are overhyped but the view is gorgeous as hell when youre up on the mountain#and its genuinely a really pretty fjord but not bc of the waterfalls#like driving through there with the ferry was super nice but bc the fjord is pretty and bc the mountains look so fucking cool#and the famous waterfalls arent even the most pretty ones like. idk why theyre so hyped. anyways. gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous fjord#and i drove sooooooo many of the zig zag roads both getting there and leaving and driving up the lookout points etc#7 in total today and one brought you from 150m elevation to over 1000 so you can imagine how long of a zig zag that was#and i did it all so good as well im a fucking god#soph txts#pic#oh yeah!! and last pics are from up on the mountain behind geiranger where you can see the glacier and stuff also super fucking cool#and gorgeous as hell
