*grabs you by the front of your shirt* Birds throughout the Cenozoic, including today, have significantly more in common with every other dinosaur than any dinosaur has to things like Dimetrodon or Mosasaurus or even Pteranodon. Dinosaurs are a specific family group and birds are extremely nested within it. Including prehistoric creatures in your media but specifically leaving out Cenozoic Dinosaurs is not only a disservice to dinosaurs, but to whatever thing you're creating and also prehistoric life in general. For the love of Gd, just add Gastornis or a Terror Bird or a Pelagornithid to your damn video game/cartoon/comic strip. Dinosaurs don't just *stop* at Archaeopteryx and I am literally losing my mind at this point, please, for me, just do it

(I love @paleopinesofficial and Amber Isle from @ambertailgames, I do, but the fact that there's Dimetrodons and Postosuchus-es and Thylacines and no dinosaurs closer to birds than Archaeopteryx is so infuriating I'm on the verge of tears)

🌅 End of Vacantion...🍹

Everything ends eventually... especially holydays! The Royal Koopa Family comes back home after their staying at Isle Delfino, and my Summertime Series meets its end...

↓↓↓ See below for detailed shots!! ↓↓↓

Clean Version, no speech bubbles

NOTE: All characters' designs for my AU are currently WIP!

Kamek Great Mage's outfit with the tiny details. Kamek is probably thinkin about his SPA day...

Roy is thinking about seeing his little gang of punk friends back home. Morton is trying to distract Junior from his end-of-summertime sadness, showing him all the cool rocks and seashell he found.

Wendy is talking with some friends, probably updating them about her staying at Isle Delfino's best resort. Iggy is noting on his notebook all the new species he discovered on the Island.

Larry is not very happy the Summertime is over. Ludwig is sending his last photo of the vacantion to his GF.

Lemmy is probably pretending to be a sky pirate. Lord Bowser is clearly already thinking about the next invasion of the Mushroom Kingdom... or about a new and eccentric way to propose to the Princess.

*** - ***

That's it! That's the end of my first, small Series from my personal SMB HC/AU!

I'm very proud of how this drawing turned out and it was probably the hardest, most complex thing I've ever draw in YEARS (maybe EVER). It took me 4 full days to finish and it's the very first time I play with perspective. Two friends of mine helped me A LOT with the perspective study, so a very big thank you to you!

What if the elders seeming bigger in their cutscenes than, say, in Orbit, is just the mind of the moth making them look like that. It's commonly theorised that our perception of the Vault is warped because we're looking at the world from the eyes of a young, newly fallen star that doesn't know any better. The moth is making it look magical and starry, but it isn't what actually reflects reality.

So it's possible that the cutscenes show them bigger and scarier and intimidating because that's how the moth sees them. Big, Scary Unknown people, that are, for some reason, familiar and in need of help.

It's a similar case to the use of cinematography that's used in them, Daleth's is middle ground, a lack of comparison of them and the moth, because they are in the same (but not really) predicament (weak and a lack of knowledge of the situation they're in) and therefore equals. Once they got their light back, boom, they're big and intimidating, they Literally Look Down on us, and we Look Up at them.

A parallel to their cutscene is Ayin and Tsadi's cutscenes, seeming big and scary, literally roaring.— "they're strong, aggressive and loud, they could hurt us"— but once we understand they are no threat, that they need light too and that they don't mean us harm, the camera angle suits it, in Tsadi's case, the camera angle evens when we interact.

Teth's camera angles never really change throughout their cutscene, even when they've regained their light. Which makes sense mind you, they never did anything to show they weren't a threat, but never overtly did anything to hurt us. They are not intimidating, but it's uncertain if they're trustworthy.

Lamed is the average size of an adult, because when we meet them, they are sitting, and possibly hurt. We do not perceive them as scary or big or anything because they don't present themself to be (or are capable of).

Sahmekh is a bit of a thing that I'm not bothered to touch on lol, their cutscene speaks for itself imo.

Anyways, that's all, I'm tired and needed to ramble about this lol (have wanted to for a while, I definitely could've worded it better but that's for a later post) anyway ty for reading

I was reading DunMeshi and was so confused by this phrase that I decided to look it up

(Do correct me if you think this isn’t accurate cuz I just used google)

But I find it frankly hilarious that Chilchuck is using slang from various parts of the British Isles out of nowhere in the last volume??

(I’ve now had someone explain to me that apparently it’s not uncommon for certain uncommon types of informal Japanese to be translated as slang from specific areas, typically around Britain, in English)

First of all I’d alr seen people jokingly headcanoning him as Irish on here (which was an idea I absolutely love)

ALSO I come from a part of the UK where I’m very familiar with the term ‘git’ but had never heard of a version with an e and I also had no idea it meant the same as ‘bastard’

(I have considered that this could just be the regular meaning of the word ‘get’ but I thought it wouldn’t grammatically make sense here so I assumed it was slang esp cuz he would totally call someone a git)

Anyways I’ve checked other translations and it’s not the same so I find it so funny that this one (which I’m pretty sure is the official English translation) included it

(^ another version I found online)

Anyways this is the translation I have and used as an example for this post, which I’m pretty sure is the official English translation:

Edit: Btw also check tags I kinda wrote this when I was drunk on sleep deprivation

he looks so sad and pretty. i just want to hug him 🥺

god fucking bless jordan captainsparklez for very diligently and cheerfully talking about the design choices he is making for his house in isles and why. it is entirely made out of glass and stone bricks and lacks any and all detailing save for minor ones in the ceiling. it objectively does not look very good. i am absolutely enamored with his attitude towards building and this is helping me feel better about my own building skills in minecraft
