#Only 3rd time drawing her tbh

[mythicalartistx]

Lemme Offer KH1 Kairi art

It's Kairi Day Yippee 🎉

Character Opinion:

I stated multiple times my opinion of her is underused, I think she has so much potential of being an interesting character from...

learning about her past and how she originally got to destiny islands

Her thoughts on what Riku did in kh1 and it would be interesting if they talked about it

Making other friends since she is kinda treated... Badly in a sense, they're always leaving her behind (not intentionally) and kinda used her as a competition for their rivalry

Her befriending Sea Salt Trio+, she is already friends with Axel and the Twilight gang and it could start some nice friendships with Xion or Olette for example

Befriending Wayfinder Trio after being trained by Aqua could also be interesting since there are several parallels between them. Also Ven is also without "darkness" so it could be interesting for the both of them to interact / would also be interesting for her and Vanitas however he might be gone?

Anyways I actually like her and hopefully she will do more relevant things outside of Sora and Riku's shadows

[silverware-is-interesting]

i walked past this store in a mall today called fossil that had like. watches n jewlery n purses or something and i thought of. fossil objectified so i drew that.

idk how this kinda looks decent tbh this is only like my 3rd time drawing them. like, its not great, but you can tell it's her, so, i call that pretty good :P

[moonsun2010]

I'm mad Tumblr ate my anon asks (it's not appearing in my Drafts????) but luckily I have a copy saved to my email so:

HEY YOUR DRACULA ANIMATIC IS SO SO GOOD I can't comment on youtube (bc I have no account) but I've watched it like 10 times now, the song fits so well and the art is incredible, I love all your character designs and the way you portray all the scenes is so spot on!

I just finished re: dracula and idk how you managed to tell the whole story so well in under 4 minutes but it was amazing I love the way you use color in the animatic, the use of mostly black/white/grey is so good for evoking the specific type of horror story this is, and it makes the red in the blood and in dracula's eyes stick out in a way that is absolutely brilliant and that last shot with the sunset is GORGEOUS and then the epilogue!!! I love that you did the epilogue to and having the gentle piano music and doing it in full color gives it such a peaceful and comforting feeling, the drawing of quincey and lucy in it in the afterlife together is so sweet <3 the detail that went into this is amazing, like the captain of the demeter having the rosary even though we only see it for a second, I keep wanting to pause on every single frame so I can properly admire all the cool art lol, also the things like jonathan's beard growing out after dracula breaks the mirror, and the rosary hanging above his bed, and dracula still having the scar from the shovel in the final showdown

AND THE PART WHERE DRACULA CATCHES THE LETTER... literally the way you tell the whole story with (almost) NO WORDS in not even 4 minutes and the whole thing flows so smoothly is incredible I love the way you do like the zoom out thing on some places, it adds a whole new dimension to it visually also the way you draw mina and jonathan after the october 3rd bit is lovely, your jonathan looks so cool with the white hair and i love how you did mina's scar, and the part where her scar disappears at the end was such a cool way to depict that and the difference between human lucy and vampire lucy is done so well, like it's so clearly the same character but you can really see how she's not herself anymore, and the way you used that when they kill vampire lucy and show arthur's resolve to use the stake bc he's now seeing her as a monster who replaced and essentially killed the woman he loved and he wants revenge, literally I will never be over how much story and emotion you managed to fit into a single music video and the way you did quincey's death? crying at that part tbh.

AND THE FRAME OF DRACULA GETTING BEHEADED WITH THE RED BACKGROUND.... IS JUST *chef's kiss* I was going to say I have no words for how much I love this but clearly I have quite a lot of words lol, thank you tumblr for not having a character limit anyway have a good day/night :)

Anon I'm so sorry for this delayed reply,,, I kept rereading this in awe and didn't want to release it into the wild (and it still got eaten anyways-)

I'm so glad you enjoyed the character design!! It's not my strong suit at all so that's reassuring. The colour scheme lowkey started out as a timesaving measure, but it also allowed for me to render scenes with detail that I otherwise couldn't've with the tight time frame I had, since at the time I was also juggling university assignments. I'm glad the sunset scene hit as hard as it did, since I had also just discovered Disco Elys/ium, so it was an attempt to emulate Rostov's illustration of Harry on Filippe III's statue). It worked out in the end anyways, since the grayscale + red accent combined with a colourful epilogue gave a "the horror is now in the past, and we are in a (literally visually) livelier future)" <3

I've seen so many people say they want to pause on each frame to examine it in detail, and guess what, you can get a zip file of them all as watermarkless pngs in my kofi! For free! It's pay-what-you-want since I just really wanted to get as many eyes on this as possible, but any tips would definitely still be appreciated.

It was fun mapping out the match cuts and transitions e.g Dracula catching the letter, Mina and Dracula with Lucy in the churchyard, since the previous semester I'd taken a storyboarding class that taught that, so I HAD to include it. Zoom outs helped add visual interest to otherwise still shots, so I'm glad they didn't come off as overdone haha.

It was tough mapping out what storybeats to include, but I'm super happy that the angst for all the key moments in the video hit right :D Was worried about losing momentum after leaving the Jonathan in Dracula's castle bit, and so I really wanted the ending of each verse(?) to correspond with a red screen injury— notice that "you'd better let yourself off and, while you still have strength in your legs, escape from this horrible hell/你最好放过自己 趁双脚还有力气, 快逃出这可怕地狱" always ends with some character harming another, and when the verse repeats again but with the ending lyrics changed "you’d better let yourself off, rather than crying out to another, “Save me!”... Save me!/你最好放过自己 胜过跟谁叫救命... 救命!", it still ends with Van Helsing staking the 3 vampire women. And of course, the ending "escape from this horrible hell/快逃出这可怕地狱" ends with the sunset, its red now replacing that of the blood the characters had to spill previously, signalling an end to their necessary monstrosity (and also a literal monster with Dracula dying).

Like with the frame of Dracula getting beheaded, the timesaving measures, limited skills (plus lack of any sort of storyboarding software, I was just ""animating"" the movements with Shotcut) forced me to find creative workarounds. I could fill at least 3 pages with writing dissecting all my choices lol but idt therell be much interest in me analysing my own art. Thank you so much for watching my animatic :)

AMAZING EPISODE EPISODNYA BEST BANGET DKJDOFJOFJFODNKFKFKFI

I am not ok, BELIUNGGGGGG

What was your fav part? Mine? ALL OF IT

3 things.

1. ALL SEVEN ELEMENTALS BEIBEEEEEEEEH!!!!!

Not one by one like the comic counterpart, but literally Boboiboy used a freaking Hepta Split!

Tbh my expectations were low cause I was skeptical that Monsta not want to bring them after that last ep (link). But HOLY SHIT WTF???!!!!

I am absolutely jumping in my seat like a football supporter, I can't--

They got short screen time--I DON'T CARE. They still got a chance to team up once again after a whole 8 years since the first movie! Besides, that movie also shortened their screen time.

Whoever decided to make Oboi's armor resemble an ant needs a raise. That's freaking clever.

Btw it seemed their hats were locked with Oboi's position. Also, Hali, and Duri were the only elements that used their sword? Interesting...

"Kembali Beraksi" rearrangge version in the background during the whole scene?? Yes please!!!

Even though it is just short, their portrayal somehow solidified my deduction about the elementals.

Anywho I am still in tears that they finally showed up on screen again. That is my personal wishlist ever since when they announced the show. I am already satisfied with that alone tbh (like really, why should Monsta need to cut that part where they were essentially the big part of the promotion during the Windara comic arc??)

2. Finally Monsta went bold.

Oh, I looooooove that moment. Monsta started to not hold back and I am captivated by every single one of it. The dying scene was well executed, all voice actors were perfect, and this scene reminds me of this.

In my opinion, this scene was also a test for their next project which honestly more dark and horror(the most horror arc throughout the galaxy series for me)

3. IT IS TIME FOR BELIUUUUUNG!!!!

Can I say Nurfathiah Diaz as Beliung here was downright phenomenal? Like holy shit, this is by far her best performance imo, yet.

Her voice acting was blown me away and I could see her improvement from Taufan's first debut to Beliung's was....I'm-I'm lost for words right now.

Look at this line delivery! (Her laugh felt diabolical and I love it.)

"Tuanku yang seksa penduduk planet ni, paksa orang tua dan budak-budak kerja di lombong, tapi saye yang biadab?!"

Edit: Turns out she was pregnant when recording Beliung??

My Respect to her went rocket. Wow.

As a person who watch her performance since the very first season of Upin&Ipin until Boboiboy... I couldn't be more proud :')

And the animation team seriously packed the action right to the tea! Reramos was absolutely blasted the whole way by Beliung. He's as ruthless as Taufan's OG era!

See? See??? Being patient is worth it guys. Therefore I was easily enjoyed the design choice of Beliung's TV ver without seeing leaks.

Taufan's upgraded board also acted as weapons and wings? Genius. And also directly parallel to the first fight with Maripos. He even said this:

The way Beliung flies on his board almost looks like this.

Now I am 100% ready for other 3rd tier designs if this is what Monsta decides to continue on.

(oh I will draw this with the cyber Sonic for sure.)

To end this, Monsta decided to some sort of "invite" Oboi and Kuputeri into a small dark room, purposely to give a more in-depth conversation between the two, linked by Kuputeri's telepath power.

In my opinion, I prefer this strategy rather than the comic counterpart. Cause in a way, Monsta wants to show the bond between Kuputeri and Oboi as same as how Tok Kasa did with him in movie 2. Symbolize by placing the hat as they entrusted their power to the very same boy.

It might be exaggerating but that jumbled corrupted effect when Beliung's struggled? Impressive. Even more impressive that Monsta knowingly used the same effect when "finally" showcasing Beliung's card.

Speaking of ads, now they released the merchandise after the debut.

Talk about self-aware :/

Everything's not perfect and I do have slight issues, but honestly? I'm pretty satisfied with this episode! They ended it nicely done!

Lastly—

Are they not use DWIFUSION as their next title? If so, Gentar arc and Baraju arc are separated! Thank god! My biggest worry apparently will not come true! Alhamdulillah!!

PS: Oh wow, would you look at those numbers! 2 million within 3 hours when I screenshot this. What an impressive improvements.

[lov3-from-loserlane]

please please please tell me more about meygan ! I love her she's so cunt

AWW TYSM!!! I’m so glad you’re interested!!!

There’s still much I have yet to share and, well I do have a lot of ideas for little drawings to do of her ^_^

I also plan to redo her introduction post probablyyyy January 2025.

But I’ll do a little fun fact run down 😼

-Her birthday is May 28th because that’s when I did my first play through of the OLNF public demo, and she was the first character I played as!

-she has partial heterochromia! The only drawing I think it comes across well is in her intro post cause guys tbh I’ve been in a funk I need to lock in… I haven’t done much color with her and if I do her eyes are either in her own art style (so like those white circles) or I think I just color them in full black, comic style. Yknow like a lazy person 😒 But her face looks like this:

Jumpscare asf

-in step 2 she’s a huge fan of Anime. Her favs are Death Note and Ouran High School Host Club. She’d probably like Black Butler too but I actually never watched past the 3rd episode of that one 😓

But yeah she’d be all like “omg I have such a crush on Light and Tamaki they’re my husbandos and blah blah blah blah” but they’re actually just her “literally me” characters and one day, one day, she will learn she was just autistic and a lesbian.

-in step 3 although she no longer dresses “emo” she still likes the music and she’s still somewhat of an anime fan, just not as loud about it as she was before. And she heavy cringes thinking about her past self.

I think by step 4 though she’ll truly come to love all versions of herself over time no matter how screwed up they may have been though :’)

Anyway thank you so much for asking and giving me the agency to info dump 🤭🤭 if you have any more questions I’m literally always open to it.

[madnesswithmadhu]

chat the madagascar/ahkj hyperfix is coming back so here are MY HOT, ULTIMATE TAKES🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 (also I might remember things wrong so pls correct me if I do!!)

AS MUCH AS LITTLE ME LOVED THE 3RD MADAGASCAR MOVIE, I JUST HATE IT LORE WISE. LIKE CHANEL DUBOIS WAS ICONIC THO BUT THEY COULDVE MADE HER LIKE A POACHER AND LET THEM STAY IN THE WILD LIKE... WHY DID THE CIRCUS HAVE TO BE BROUGHT IN??? AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE WHOLE LOVE INTEREST THING (THAT CHEETAH GIRL, FORGOR HER NAME SORRY, AND THAT BEAR WHO'S NAME WAS SONYA I THINK IDK THATS HOW UNREMEMARBLE THEY WERE TO ME) LIKE IN MY OPINION THAT CHEETAH GIRL WAS JUST THERE FOR ALEX BC "OOOH LOVE INTEREST" WHICH SUCKS TBH BC SHE COULDVE BEEN COOL, BUT THEY KINDA DID WITH HER WHAT THEY DID WITH CLOVER AT THE END OF AHKJ, PURELY EXISTING FOR MALE CHARACTERS.

SPEAKING OF RHE 3RD MOVIE (I HAVE IMMENSE BEEF WITH IT SORRY) WTF WAS THAT SCENE WHERE MAURICE SMILED WHEN RHEY ALL THOUGHT JULIEN DIED??? LIKE HUH?...WHAT ABOUT TRUE BROMANCE?... I, MAURICE??? LIKE HUH. AND IT WASNT EVEN ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS WHERE ITS LIKE THEY SMILE FIRST FROM SHOCK AND THEN FREAK OUT BC THE CREATOR **CONFIRMED** IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THAT MAURICE WAS HAPPY HE DIED LIKE NO???? THOSE TWO ARE LIKE AN OLD MARRIED COUPLE WHO BICKER BUT STILL LOVE EACHOTHER AND ARE JUST GRUMPY MOST OF THE TIME

I WISH WE COULDVE GOTTEN A MOVIE THAT FOCUSED ON THE LEMURS/MAYBE ANOTHER SERIES THATS ABOUT THE LEMUR TRIO RETURNING TO MADAGASCAR AND TRYING TO FIX EVERYTHING THAT WENT WRONG WHEN THEY WERE GONE, OR THEY COULD ACTUALLY EXPAND MORE ON THE WHOLE TRAVELLING CIRCUS IDEA WHICH COULD MAKE IT MORE INTERESTING

ALSO CLOVER IS A LESBIAN. SORRY NOT SORRY LIKE THE LEMUR TRIO LITERALLY THOUGHT SHE WAS GONNA MARRY A WOMAN, AND FOUND NO PROBLEM WITH IT, LIKE SHE DOESNT LIKE SAGE, SHE LIKES THE IDEA OF HIM BC SHE LOOKS LIKE THE GUY FROM HER NOVELS!!!!!! (Need someone to draw the lemur trio+maybe like Ted or whatever going to the mountain lemur kingdom and playing "good luck, babe!" From Chappel Roan to try and knock her out of the comphet. OR ILL DRAW IT MYSELF IDK)

WHY ARE WE OVERLOOKING MAURICE'S LORE?... LIKE SURE MORT'S LORE IS CWAZY BUT MAURICE IS LITERALLY LIKE A GOD TO A BUNCH OF SNAILS???? LIKE NO ONE HAS DEEPENED INTO THAT LORE AND IT MAKES ME SAD LOWKEY, NOT ONLY CUZ HES MY FAV AND HE IS TERIBBLY UNDERRATED SINCE PPL WANNA FOCUS ON KJ AND MORT MORE, BUT HE GENUINELY HAS LORE THAT IS SO INSANE, LIKE HE LOST BOTH HIS BIO PARENTS AND HIS ADOPTIVE PARENTS DUE TO FOOSSA'S; HE GOT BULLIED AS A KID; HE IS A IMMENSE PPL'S PLEASER; ETC ETC. LIKE HE'S SO COOL IM NOT BEING BIASED CUZ HES MY FAVE PLS

OVERALL: DREAMWORKS STOP MAKING FEMALE CHARACTERS ONLY EXIST FOR MALE ONES AND MAKE GOOD SEQUELS/PREQUELS THAT DONT CONTRADICT ONE ANOTHER

THE MFS WHO MADE RHAT JULIEN ASSASIN JOKE IS DEAD TO ME TBH

PLS MAKE ANOTHER MADAGASCAR MEDIA SO THE FANDOM REVIVES

#SAVECLOVERFROMHERCOMPHET

PLS STOP IGNORING MAURICE, HE IS SILLY IN HIS OWN WAYS AND DOESNT HAVE TO HAVE A WEIRD KINK AROUND ANOTHER CHARACTER TO BE POPULAR, BC HE IS JUST AS OVER-THE-TOP AS THE OTHER CHARACTERS JUST IN HIS OWN WAY PLS😞😞

[elmaxlys]

9. For the ts ask! (I’m pretty much sure I l’ow the answers of all the others lol)

9- Favorite fanwork (fanart, fanfic, edit, etc)

This is so hard tbh aaaah

I admit I don't read any fanfic apart from my own because well. inexistant ships oblige, so I'll only mention fanarts. I'll mention a few artists and a few pieces I particularly love 🥰

First gotta be Purple (amehiki)!!! Known Aikawa lover and fucked up scenarii enjoyer, she brought upon this world many many many absolutely bonkers and wonderful fanarts. To even choose a favorite would be mission impossible but i'd like to show some of them

we all know my obsession with Juo and every artist who draws him has my favor lol - but this??? and actually Purple has drawn a bunch of Juoikawa pieces!! Absolutely amazing, makes me live in times of hardship

I also looooove love love this drawing of Oribe with Rika!! it goes in a pair with Senya + Sniper, very very cool

And there are so many dark dark ones I absolutely adore but I'm containing myself and choose this one as my 3rd and last:

babies 🥺

Another wonderful artist we all know and adore is @space-diablo and my overall favorites I think are these two:

Third and last I'll mention will be ikoi and my favorite of hers are of course

because hey. i am nothing if predictable lol

no for real, I also love love all her Rika arts and all her Juo (arrive) art as well, I particularly appreciate putting them in dresses u_u

TS questions

[alitgblog]

reunion volume thoughts

first off oh damn goodbye Jin, Claudia, and Bea gonna miss yall so much 🥲😭

second, this was just such an anticlimactic way to say goodbye to all these characters lol

I'm not mad at them bringing in all the characters in groups so not everyone gets introduced all at once, but oh why did we start with Sienna and Hazel and then only at the end did we get Claudia, Theo, and Bea? Like I love a drama filled season, but even this I'm like let me take a victory lap with my friends first pleaseeee

I had enough gems so I was like ehh fuck it I'll listen to Hazel's airport drama but I did notice for more details about the same/related story later on you did still have to pay gems which is ridiculous and also if you didn't pay for at least one, then it's literally just them bickering for most of the reunion and then you get a little bit of free drama between your LI and some other dude. Like I think if you care less about the casa islanders' drama (which I absolutely understand bc I also care less about those islanders' stories), then this was a boring volume pretty much

small odd thing was that no other islanders showed up. like I get that not everyone would show if this was real and for the fiction clearly fusebox just doesnt want to draw the other islanders, but fusebox would only have to draw one dress for the missing islanders and it would make sense for them to show up. like Rachel is an OG where is she?? Felicity had some drama with the guys too how abou her?

Tyler's storyline didn't do much for me bc he gets dumped so fast that it's weird he has all these declarations about missing his connection with MC and wishing he had another chance. And it's sweet and tbh after playing this volume I do like Tyler's character more, but it's still so intense so fast. But also, if this whole storyline was for a reunion in s4 for Hazeem??? would love that. Like he got to know MC for a while but was pursuing Najuma and he realized too late he should've went for MC.

Oakley and Emel not making it on the outside was absolutely expected it went exactly how i thought it would but I do still wish they got 3rd or 4th place at least

Sophie and Jack together but unhappy and unpopular also something I would've predicted.

Sophie and Luna need to stopppp. I don't care for the other guys but I did pick Jack as the potential other man just to potentially piss off Sophie (unfortunately didn't really come into play).

why is Luna still salty though

althoughhhhh I did notice Luna and Tyler look good next to each other is all I'm saying. if both of them got more screen time I wouldn't be mad if they coupled with each other after MC stole Jin.

Claudia and Theo still together 🤦‍♀️

I'm so sorry Claudia I will replay for you 😘

Hazel is such a mess

I want whatever tf the remaining casa boys have. like in my game it's Shawn and Kyle and I'm like are they... together? what's going on there? I know Kyle and Hazel have a thing and Shawn and Sienna are no longer a thing but what's happening there? Also I have challengers on the mind so like.. heyyyy Shawn, Kyle, and Hazel, what's uhh the situation

Bea is barely in this. I know I've already said that but I'm so upset

Ngl the bit where Liam is teasing Claudia about hosting the game is kinda funny I wish all the characters had more fun in-character dialogue like that

I can't be bothered with the Max and Hari drama even though that seemed to be the main focus of the reunion and then you still have to pay gems for the whole story

and Jin's texting airport drama was so small too like it's really nothing and went exactly how I'd expect it to go

ok so general thoughts/fixes

the way almost everyone is single and you get a chance to run away with the og boys (plus liam) one last time doesn't really work for me (except Liam I guess his thing was fine, I do like the realism of him being like I came off as such an asshole I'm sorry but then also still being a little messy bc that's just him). I think maybe if there was an actual gap irl between the reunion getting released and the s8 finale it would feel better.

personally I think it could've just gone like the S1 reunion where it's a two parter, first of all. second, we get the scenery change whether it's Christmas in S1 or in S8's case, make it more autumn since it's been a few months. Again, just adds to the feeling like time has passed bc if it's just in the villa, it doesn't feel like we ever really left? THTH2 does this well too because they're still on an island vacation but they changed the backgrounds at least because it's a different location and I think that helps a lot.

I'd like less casa islanders drama and less dumped OG islanders drama

Literally would be okay if it was just partying and seeing like hey what are you up to? Is Hari's business going well? Is Jin booked and busier than ever as a model? Did MC and her partner move in together? Like we got a little bit from Liam's podcast news, Tyler traveling, and the broken up couples' relationship status, but that's it I think.

I'm trying to remember what made the other reunions so fun and I think fusebox gets close but not quite. So the first two revolve around weddings/proposals and S3 around a potential breakup, but I do like the idea of everyone hearing how one or two of the islanders slandered everyone on a podcast and they're all mad. It just also doesn't work because what if MC doesn't care? So it needs to be that plus something with your LI (for good or for bad), and then cut out most of the other stuff. Like we can include that apparently all the casa people hooked up with each other at one point but let's not let that be the main storyline or let it be less prevalent

you should be able to run away with Claudia or Bea if you're allowed to run away with the OG boys at the end. Like they can have the same storylines as the guys too, Bea being single and ready to move into a real relationship that she realized she wasn't really ready for during the show (like Tyler) and then Claudia yet again having doubts about Theo like the broken record that relationship is (like the guys in an unhappy couple with Emel/Sophie/Luna).

also ending in a big group hug is lame, it's very friend island energy and even s3 doesn't end like that. might as well copy S1 just end with your LI or running away with some other character while the person that was pursuing them earlier yells at you (does this only happen with Tim/Jen? I don't remember lol)

[rainecreatesstuff]

ok so the post was made a month ago and i'm sure you've already gotten this ask but what's the symbolism behind the limlife clocks you made?

tbh im low on energy and I wasn’t gonna answer this but then I noticed you’ve got a d20 username and avatar so out of respect for another d20er hanging out in the mcyt fields I will.

anyways

T.I.E.S:

Tango - stopwatch. Lil reference to him running the death games in s1 and 2, also to match his general sense of urgency. Also can be used for red stone timing

Impulse - watch. Simple, practical, but has his own lil flair to it with his logo. Stays on the wrist so he doesn’t have to worry abt other people nabbing it or it getting broken, kinda symbolizes his tendency to play multiple sides to keep himself safe. Also has a day/night cycle, connecting him to Bdubs after double life

Etho - sleek, elegant design. Can be glanced at quickly to see time. Day/night cycle connecting him to Bdubs bc. They cannot be normal about each other. A small sundial bc he’s been around these parts a while and also it just feels like something he would brag about being able to read.

Skizz - forget-me-nots symbolize skizz’s loyalty to his people and his kindness to everyone. Also, as the first to lose a significant amount of time, given as a reminder to. Yknow. Remember him. Cracked after being killed twice by boogeymen in ep 1

Mean Gills:

Martyn - simple, easy to read and glance at, can be clipped to a weapon or tool so he can see it easily, imbued with his status as a follower of the listeners.

Scott - poppy in the middle to symbolize his ties to Jimmy, which keep popping up despite. Everything. A gold heart which is awarded to each of the victors. Scott’s clock originally had chains around it, put there by the Watchers/ higher beings/ whoever to prevent him from messing with his clock, broken immediately bc Scott found them annoying

Nosy Neighbours:

Pearl - locket. Unseen in drawing, but a wolf’s head is carved into the front. Phases of the moon show how much time she has left rather than numbers. A gold heart awarded to each of the victors.

BigB - cookie clock! Lighthearted and fun, shows bigb’s brand a bit, not really intense or complex, showing how bigb tends to be pretty upfront and chill throughout the games

The Clockers:

Cleo - an old clock that matches the aesthetics of the Time Witch from wcsmp. The inner mechanisms are visible to represent how she usually plays with all her cards on the table, and is very upfront with her allegiances and her reasonings etc. elegant and a bit imposing.

Bdubs - a busted-up clock that doesn’t work anymore. Or, well, the inner mechanisms work. It ticks. Nobody can see how much time is left though. Chipped and cracked from the last three games. Blood from first boogey kill.

Scar - an hourglass with a dark oak border. Can’t have a scar clock and not put desert duo in it. Anyways, not only does the sand represent Scar’s permanent ties to the desert, it also is a very clear visual, meaning Scar doesn’t have to worry about accidentally jumbling numbers when reading his time (dyslexia is a bitch)

The Bad Boys:

Joel - Two ruby eyes representing the red that is always in Joel, no matter his colour, as well as acting as a small nod to his wolves in 3rd life. The hands are dagger-shaped, but round at the ends (he is scary but also a wet cat. If you are loyal to him he will not so much as scratch you). Scorched from Bad Boy Actions in ep 1

Jimmy - canary wings going round and round, cyclically. A cage that should open; it has hinges. Jimmy cannot open it yet. (If someone else dies first, he might be able to) also scorched from Bad Boy Actions

Grian - they will not let him forget he is not meant to be there. He has to concentrate to keep his clock at the right time- its hands will spin wildly (sometimes even going backwards, giving him more time) if he doesn’t keep an eye on it. Three hearts to remind him that he created the games. A gold heart awarded to each of the victors. Not shown, but two winged-shapes on hinges close over the clock face to shield it from other’s’ view.

October 2023 Art

for some reason i wrote a novel under the cut, for those of u actually reading, thank u for being so patient x

vvv dates + info under the cut vvv

1 - 03/10/2023 : another of my faves of last year, was trying to get better at drawing trainz, so just Edward and Toby hanging out, displaying the duality of old men x

2 - 04/10/2023 : got a new puter! one of the first things i set to doing after getting set up was to draw a Ru, of course, it was also just me trying to get used to the new MS paint..... it feels very odd

3, 4, 5 - 06/10/2023 : part 1 of redrawing random pics i have of Edward on my phone with my human version of him, this was really fun tbh, and the third here is one of my fave drawings of the year probs.. like sir.. those look heavy... what big uhh.. Glasses.. you have

6, 7, 8 - 07/10/2023 : part 2! i think i just like drawing his face... dare i say this train is cunty or will that get me exiled

9 - 08/10/2023 : something stupid i thought of and couldn't get out of my head for days so had to draw it..... little johnny from oingo boingo's only a lad, doing what he does best, fantasising about radios he wants oh so bad and running people down with a boyish craving for blood.. based on that 1 meme of the guy driving and thinking of a thing then making that insane face

10 - 09/10/2023 : based on that 1 silly vargskelethor song (that could not be less specific), had Shed 17 on the brain and was reminded of the milk song where the skeleton comes out.. thomarse dank 2 much milk and died..

11, 12 - 10/10/2023 : chooshada again :333 first a little doodle on my phone bc i was wondering about her livery, i do think she'd have originally been NER apple green but then painted NWR colours, butttt with a twist... coz i can do whatever i like... the twist is just that she's painted dark blue rather than a sky blue, coz its more her colour x

ALSO MS paint shada, wanted to draw her more uh, idk, detailed ig, idk i love this one, it also served as more train practice

13 - 13/10/2023 : previous one, but with COLOUR!! not much 2 say other than that shes very cute

14 - 18/10/2023 : saw a tweet abt old photos of engine crews posing with their crashed locos and how the NWR crews would do that, made me think of how, if Toni was (choo)shada's driver, she'd do that.. probably x .. very like her to slay in the midst of a terrible accident

15 - 22/10/2023 : predictably, i have some playlists for the ttte engines, one for Diesel which is notable here, so uhh, i have the scrapped song from the lorax "biggering" in there, bc i see it as like a Duck vs Diesel song, ik im surpassing several layers of cringe here but hear me out ok... i drew this at 2am coz i couldn't stop thinking of Duck lecturing Diesel

16, 17, 18 - 25/10/2023 : speaking of playlists, think i was listening to my Robin one here, and felt like drawing him, i have "the land of make believe" in there, which ive always found to be an oddly haunting song, so this is semi based on that, though that wouldn't be apparent if i hadn't just told u x .. this looks like vent art but tis not i was just having fun

also tiny chooshada, i was in the middle of writing something which i have literally Just remembered now and i was writing a scene where Ru is stuck between some characters who shes not looking forward to working with bc they're about to bicker the whole fuckin time and one of them thinks shes a dick, so i drew her being sad that shes forced to work with morons..... and speak of the devil, 3rd drawing is here with 2 of the aforementioned morons :D i think D+D take a liking to her, they're just a little obnoxious (love them for that)

19 - 27/10/2023 : a quick(ish) digital thing of Chooshada again that i did on the side of another project, more engine drawing practice he he, she'll be out of proportion and lacking detail but really it was just to not be too hard on myself about that, it did help i think to understand how to draw her more, plus just look at her lil face... also she has a number here, doesn't mean much other than 8 being her lucky number, other than 11, like those are just her numbers, suppose i could have it be 1188 to ref her bday, idfk x

Ok so, Firebug I have a few questions because honestly I’m pretty bored and I have WAYYYYY too much time on my hands:

1. What’s ya favourite song(s) in Project Sekai that’s not from MMJ (if I did not exclude MMJ I think you’d name all their songs. and tbh so would I)

2. Have you seen any Ghibli Studio movies, and if so what are some of your favourites? (I love their movies so much aaaaaaaaa 😭😭😭)

3. Ok so, this isn’t a question but please tell me more about your ‘Phantom Theif’ AU pretty please s’il vous plaît 🥺🥺

4. Ok so, do you have any like costume ideas or character designs for your ‘Phantom Their’ AU because I may or may not want to draw them… Firebug you’ve made me obsessed with this but I can’t blame you this AU is amazing, your magnum opus even

Ok that will be all. Uhhhhhh., expect me to send you some more random asks in the future. I’m just a silly enstars fan who has too much time on her hands… ok so I may have already repeated myself ….

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ sparkles as usual !!

;; OK!!! OK!!! YAY!!!

;; 1) im offended you think that mmj is my only music taste (it is), really how could you think that (ive shown you my playlist)

;; but seriously I'm a sucker for all of the april fools covers EXCEPT ifuudoudou. as for permanent covers? l/n lost one's weeping is banger and i love it; vbs has odo <3; wondershow's ego rock, adventure log and childish war are all very silly; and niigo's phony, villain, MKDR/DSCF and non-breath oblige are so pretty!!

;; 2) ive watched 2! i need to watch more, ive watched a whisker away and spirited away, they both killed me !!!!

;; 3) first of all i don't speak french and you know this (/silly), second of all ive told you all there is about it right now :(

;; 4) OK!! so you've seen and reblogged minori's design for her phantom thief costume!! as for the other outfits, ive drawn airi with her "fear trad" and shizuku with her "the garden's beautiful pale-coloured flowers style"!!

;; then casuals are just their post 3rd-anniversary casuals!! :D

;; WRBLWBTLNTLTHWLTBA thank you for complimenting my silly lil au :3

;; sparkles!! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

32, 33 and 35 from this asks game

Hey friend thank you for the ask !! Sorry for responding so late to this one, the past two months have been really busy

32 - What is a line from a poem/novel/fanfic etc that you return to from time and time again? How did you find it? What does it mean to you?

There isn't really a line I return to, however there are certain scenes where I will go back to again and again because they evoke a distinct feeling or a period of time. For example this gahan fic, the first line of the last scene, where gaon wakes when the rain falls in the early hours of the morning, while they're in a tiny safehouse somehow brought back memories of when my mother took me with her to France when I was 3yo (she was interning at a hospital and couldn't leave me to anybody back home). The only thing I remember from that time is the fuzzy feeling of being awake right before the sun rises, with the sound of rain falling outside

33 - Do you practice any other art besides writing? Does that art ever tie into your writing, or is it entirely separate?

I draw !! I mean I used to ? I've been drawing for a long time but have not had any time to dedicate to it since february last year because I began a very intense internship. then i enrolled into grad school and it's been even busier. Might link my previous art blog here some day :') It does not really tie into writing for me because I only recently started trying to write ff, as tdj fan community is so nice and creative, and because I felt I needed an outlet for ideas if I couldn't draw them. Tbh I also think it's because I feel intimidated to draw for tdj as my style is more anime-like and it's super hard to translate that well when drawing from live action media (all the tdj artists i've seen so far are doing so great tho it's all very cool)

35. What’s your favorite writing rule to smash into smithereens?

I'm actually not sure ! I'm not a native speaker of english it's like my 3rd language, so I think I lack a lot of the nuance in how to wield it. when it comes to crafting a story, I think I start writing down things before I figure out what exactly I'm trying to convey. Probably why I rarely get further than plot bunnies :')))

[w4t3rgun2]

hi! No idea if this blog is still open but can I request Winston loomis with daughter reader (FAMILIAL NOT ROMANTIC) with either it pronouns or fem ones whichever’s easier! Or dr Albert Krueger x reader (romantic) same pronouns!! I love your blog theme btw

Hello! I hope you're well, anon! And thank you!! :∆ my blog is always open for asks!! ^^ so sorry I am doing this late!!!

✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯

(I'm doing this in a different format! Hope it's cool!)

Type: Familial + Romantic!

Ship(s): Winston Loomis + daughter! Reader / Albert Krueger x Reader

Pronouns: It/Its & She/Her (I flipped between the two) for Reader | He/Him for Loomis | They/He for Albert | 🎉3rd person🎉

Owner information: I'm doing this headcanon style, if you want it changed; I will! ^^ And also might be OOC (out of character) due to me not returning to the fandom/writing in so long lol

CW?// "It" (as in the accidents and experiments), Myer (Yes that is a content warning), Albert Krueger in general, eyes small mention, OOC

Winston Loomis' daughter / (Y/N) Loomis!

This is a certainly interesting situation. A very quiet man with a child, unexpected! (Positively speaking of course)

It would probably depend on its age

If she's a kid; He'd definitely try to make time from his work to hang out. After all, kids need attention!

He'd probably also take her to work (before "it" started) with Myer's consent

While Myer isn't a big fan of kids, it is basically Myer's favorite in the workplace

and sometimes will take it to his office to let it just do whatever as Winston takes care of business.

Sometimes Myer makes Victor take of it as well.

Victor has tried to give it alcohol on multiple occasions; with Vincent stopping him. (Husbands /hj)

But after "it" started, he'd definitely have someone such as Draco take care of her. Winston doesn't want for his daughter to see what he's done.

Tbh, Winston might've also made a system for Draco in which Draco acts like a second parent for it!

But if she was to be a teen/older; He'd definitely let her come along to his work (with Myer's permission of course) and teach it about the work place

Also, note that He's not much of an affectionate, touchy or showy person. He stays quiet (he usually coughs) but with his daughter; he's definitely more talkative

If it decides to work alongside with Winston, he'd definitely be proud and show it the way

Especially if it's in the robotic industry; Winston will let it use Draco as practice (Sorry Draco)

I headcanon that Winston does sign language so his daughter might also have to learn it and they can have conversations

Winston would definitely get into whatever it is into; especially if it's technology related

Loomis the single parent👍

He's trying and he definitely tries whatever he can to make it happy and healthy

Albert Krueger x Reader (Romantically💞)

Oh my dear Atlantis. (- sincerely an Albert Krueger fickin /hj)

Let's start off with the dates between the two lovebirds;

Albert loves ocean life. So if it takes them to anything ocean related, they're head over heals for it already. (/Hj)

But Albert definitely goes to aquariums, holding its hand and ranting about all of the different animals (I hope you have patience)

But otherwise, Albert is definitely not into PDA. They love reserved hand holding and such.

Holding hands while deeply breathing together is something he loves much

He seems like to be the small spoon and say that he's a knife (he's not.)

Oh definitely plushie and blanket castles. Only it is allowed in

But also; free therapy! Like genuine therapy not .... (That)

It will occasionally find eyes in his room. Don't panic; it's just his ... Collection

He sometimes works later than usual so he'll definitely quickly call and say that

Since he's a dream therapist; he'll definitely try to make sure it doesn't have any bad dreams or nightmares or whatever

But if it does happy, comfort all night long!

Definitely drawing her on his papers and paperwork whenever he doesn't want to do it

Every patient knows a bit about her; not in a creepy way but they know of her existence and wondering why Albert

Albert loves playing games, wether it'd be card or cup and ball; he'll play it.

He gets very competitive in card games.

And when I say competitive; I MEAN IT.

THERE IS A REASON WHY IT HAD TO BAN SCRABBLE IN THE HOUSE. ALBERT FLIPPED THE TABLE.

Also definitely bought it one of those messager boxes and all and he sends cute little photos via it

He takes photos of dates and has them on repeat on his computer (like a slide background), it helps him get through the day

Overall; weird boyfriend but he's cute <3

Thank you for the request!! I had fun and feel free to ask me to do more/to change something/to remake!! <333/p

It's my 12 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

Ah I remember it like it was yesterday.

At the time websites like blogger and WordPress was having an economical hit. Creators were gravitating to other micro blogging websites like Facebook and Twitter and amongst them was Tumblr!

I was only blogging my "photography" and food photos at the time, didn't take off very much. The only advertising you had was go to other peoples blogs, comment and subtly advertise your blog.

(my old blog)

So cute and full of life!

So when the other photo bloggers started gravitating away, I just went with the one that suited my type of micro blogging.

The ecosystem of Tumblr was mostly photography, and heeps of fan blogs like f*ck yeah edit fan blogs for Disney, Merlin, Harry potter, and supernatural.

I had a computer at the time so I was in love with the editing side like HTML and I love you can reblog things in between your regular blog post. I wasn't into art yet.

This wasn't my first Tumblr blog. I wanna say it's my 3rd version of this blog, but I think it's probably the 5th version. I was always changing the layout of it.

I don't remember when I started drawing tbh. I think it was during the lana del rey era. She just made her second single or album and ema watson just started acting outside of harry potter, and game of Thrones was just starting. I think I was bored one day waiting for a call back for a job interview and took my moms iPad and tried digital art. It was hideous ngl. But I wish I kept the photos would be nice to look back on them. Eventually I started liking drawing again. I drew mostly fan art of my favorite shows at the time, Merlin, reign, supernatural, game of Thrones. Plus there were a few Tumblr artist I was so obsessed at the time, so it ignited my interest in art after so many years!

(Earlier art blog)

I was posting most of my art on a side blog. The main blog was a spam account 😅 but eventually I moved everything back to this main blog so it wouldn't be hard to interact with other creators of this site. I can't seem to link the blog here from my phone.

By 2021 my computer got destroyed and I haven't been able to edit this blog. And the phone version sucks! I haven't posted a lot of my art here because I just hated posting on the app.

I'm still trying to post more here and twitter and threads.

Anyways thank you for those who have been following me for all these years! If there's any of you left!

Happy 12 years tumblrversary!

I've hit the 3rd ep for all of the things I'm watching (except for 1 but shhh). Crazy. As per the rule, I guess I'll write down my thoughts for them now.

Atarashii Joushi; Fun and heartwarming in a very tame sort of way. It reminded me of CDD a lot in the first episode, but I feel like it's really making itself stand out now. Also, the 3rd ep made me cry. wtf.

Bullbuster; Very interested to see where this goes with the island plot. I like the touch of realism for how the company operates. Kataoka is actually my fave character so far just because he has such a strong presence, lmao

Dekoboko Majo; It's your standard over the top gag anime (which I like! it's just stupid silly fun) I do like the allusion to a deeper plot though

Hypmic; I already loved Hypmic and I never even expected another season, so I already feel spoiled. I love how they're weaving all the divisions into the ongoing plot, it's actually done pretty well? Though the anime original group (TBH) feels a bit jammed into the story, but it's only natural when you've got something with a plot like hypmic (that's already jammed full with contrivances, lmao) Also, Dotsuitare Homos episode when? (probably next week. yippeee ^u^)

Kamierabi; It's starting to become apparent with the 3rd episode that the plot in this show. Might not be that great. But I love death / high stakes games, even if they're kinda shitty. The animation isn't nearly as bad as everyone wants you to believe though.

Kamonohashi Ron; Ron he is so sillay <3 I love detectives, I love buddy teamups, this is a winning combo in my book. Their banter is super manzai-like though, very dry / reaction based humour. Which I think is funny but not when overused (is this show overusing it? not rlly as of now thankfully). Also, very intrigued by what the hell happened to Ron

Kawagoe Boys Sing; Uhhhh this only has 2 eps rn but the 2nd one was already so much better than the first. I love IT kun and Otome kun, excited for the rest of the cast to be introduced Ok I've seen the 3rd one now and in the very first sentence from Adachi I heard it was Kimura Subaru. I'm so happy he's here!! It was a good call to get him for this show since he's a great singer (in English too so it was nice hearing him in the ed this time!) Just an aside I actually think it's really nice how cool everyone is with all the weird quirks the characters have. Like, they consistently see Otome's feminine traits as a genuinely cool thing, and it's such a breath of fresh air compared to other shows

Migi to Dali; This is def up there as my fave this season, I loved Sakamoto so I'm super happy that Sano san's other work got adapted as well. May she be freer where she is now. Her strange brand of humour will forever be one of my faves, and having it mixed with a mystery this time is like a dream come true

Undead Unluck; I'm watching this one w my brother and I'm glad, it's exactly the kind of stuff we tend to watch together. The animation for this one goes crazy hard btw.

Watashi no Oshi; I wasn't feeling the first 2 eps all that much (they were funny and had a few good moments, but they weren't fantastic or anything), but goddd the third one was so good... and the 4th was really funny. I'm enjoying this one more and more each week :) also the op is super catchy

Yonkyoudai; This one is really sweet, I love the usage of different animation styles to evoke certain emotions, and the way it often mimics children's drawings works so well for this story. I get all teary eyed watching this one every time...

[echoxbuggs]

Passing this ask game on: List 5 things that make you happy, then put this in the askbox for the last ten people who reblogged something from you! Get to know your mutuals & followers!! <3

Thx for the ask!!

Five things that make me happy are…

1: Sweaters/jackets. Listen, listen- they’re so comfortable and warm and soft. They can hide my body when I’m insecure. I can sleep in them if I need to do laundry. If I’m not wearing something really nice while out, cover it up with a sweater. Don’t even get me started on leather and denim jackets too- they look so cool and stylish and istg wearing one is a confidence booster for me. Sadly I live in Florida and as it’s summer, I can only wear one inside where I blast the ac :/

2: pets. Any pets. Dogs, cats, hamster/guinea pig/gerbil, ferrets, birds, lizards, snakes, turtles, fish, insects/arachnids. The list goes on. As long as it’s not an illegal pet or you’re mistreating it, that pet will make me happy. I’ve only had two pets—unfortunately— and they’ve both been dogs but I am more of a cat person really. When I’m able to, I will buy myself a cat and literally adore it. Snakes too, I want snakes. Probably one, but it would literally be so cool.

3: music. I mostly lean towards pop, but I’m open to anything really. If I like a song, it’s immediately being added to a playlist. Honestly, songs from like the 90s-2010s are such bops. Like I remember jamming out to them in the car when I was younger and I still listen to those songs and get nostalgia when I hear them.

4: drawing. I love drawing, but tbh I’m like not really good and I never have motivation for it 😭 I’m like 3rd generation artist (my great-grandfather was a sign painter, then my dad and uncle are both artists) and so me and my two brothers kinda inherited that. I lean more towards drawing than painting but I still love it and get encouraged to keep up with it by my family. I mostly like drawing characters—mostly from Clone Wars— and have attempted a few times to draw my OCs. Drawing is something I do when I’m bored or if I just need something to cheer me up a bit. It’s calming.

5: Echo. You know how you always have that one fictional character that you just love and adore and would do anything for? Yeah, for me that’s Echo 🥰 It’s not even like subtle too, my brother clearly knows bc I become a giggling idiot whenever I talk about Echo or see a picture of him. Other than him—and online friends—the only other person who knows I love him is my long distance best friend but only because I know about her thing on Captain Rex 👀 I crave more Echo content and literally cried when I seen he seemed to have a lot of screen time in the first bad batch s2 trailer. Like the poor guy needs more love and appreciation 🤭
