da coogies

it took a little bit but I finished turning all the main animatronics into cookies! Designing all of them was a whole lot of fun <3 and on top of that I am (slowly) working on a speedpaint video to show the whole process, from sketching to final rendering! I will def post it here when its finished!

Patrick and Pete throughout the years

"I remember looking at Pete and Patrick and telling Pete, “You're the luckiest guy in the world because you found this guy." Patrick laughed. Then I turned to Patrick and said the same thing to him. They fit together so perfectly. Pete listens to electronic music and pop. He DJs. Patrick likes old soul and classic R&B. The fact that Patrick found this guy with this vision; Pete had everything for the band laid out in his mind. And the fact that Pete found a guy who can sing like that and take his lyrics and work with them - which is an art unto itself. It's really the combination of those two that really creates the sound and the songs. They're just really lucky they found each other."

Hey anyone else remember the episode of Adventure Time called "Evergreen" where it's revealed that the original bearer of the crown to whom it was "forever linked" was actually a neglected child (and prior reincarnation of Finn) named Gunter trying to be like his wizard father?? Anyone??? Because I had fully forgotten until re-watching the episode last night and I'm losing my mind about the implications.

(This episode is also a devastating look at how a mistreated child unconsciously learns that he must treat himself and those he has power over as cruelly as he has been treated. Adventure Time has so much sadness and madness, y'all.)

i genuinely adore that they made kon the mom friend. such a charming trait to give to a tank/support archetype. yeah yeah he's really good at punching robots and yeah he's a flirt and yeah he's gonna throw a fit about missing an episode of wendy the werewolf stalker as it airs, but also he's out here fussing over cissie when she's catatonic, petting her hair and calling her all these nicknames and endearments. he's giving bart the momcore "stay out of trouble" talk or pulling the full name card when he's gotta but you know he probably has snack bars in his thigh pouch for when bart gets hungry. this guy probably asks ma kent to help him make a big pot of chicken soup when cassie has a cold. it's CHARMING!!!!
