Shout out to all artists who had to work without any strong direction or instruction.

I wish you a merry “the client likes it anyways”

#non mdzs #The real mood of this comic is:#AKA: you are in charge of designing a character but have only been given personality as a reference.#This was technically for a game dev meeting and I am part of a team rather than a contractor hired on.#But hey the anxiety going into this was still crazy high. I was playing a risky gambit.#Part two of this comic is me putting all those clowns on a powerpoint and presenting them in front of a few people.#Pointing at them and saying “Okay which clown do you like best? How can we sex up this clown more?”#I think I may be giving the impression that I’m more into clowns than I actually am. It just fit with the character okay!#I had to consult the REAL down-for-clowners for tips. Photos exchanged in the dark alleys of a discord server.#A hooded figure shakes their head at the first photo. Slowly nods as I add puffy sleeves. Nods furiously as I drop the neckline.#This clown still needs to marinate a bit more before I’m ready to present them to the wider world.#So stay tuned! They have become a delight to draw and develop!#Game dev diary #As this is part of that new arc in my life.#Can you tell I've been practicing with digital art a lot more? Boy have I ever! I'm getting stronger! And faster!

shuichi posting

#my art #fanart #strawberridraws #danganronpa #drv3 #shuichi saihara #character design #don't ask me what possessed me to make this #(its the game grumps play through. the demons have officially returned)#all my aus and head canons bouncing around at maximum velocity rn..#technically this is part of my “the tragedy was real” au / towa kids au #but shuichi (in that au) was kinda just like #what he is on the tin #aka a nice dude taken under his uncles wing post parent death (tragedy) (they were on vacation and got caught up in one of the worst areas)#in my au its like. imagine a weather map with hotspots; that's how the tragedy worked #so shuichi lived in a less effected area but with the rise of infected people (like zombie apocalypse style) (and animorphs brain worm styl #as you cannot tell who is effected by despair and to what extent unless they choose to reveal themselves)#there was a hugeee uptick in crime and shit so he started working with his uncle early on #eventually his uncle went missing (I think its not super hammered out) and he went to investigate #which is when he runs into his like Gang of pregame ppl #(Kaito maki Kaede)#and later some others (towa kid gang [kokichi gang but with drv3 kids] island gang [angie kork n amami])#ANYWAYS its a thing...#ik its been like 3 years since I first posted about it but u can't control the brain worms ig #and I just wanted to do a redesign lmao

very rushed and very messy but here is frisk at college for the 9th anniversary :> they probably wouldn't be able to go home for every celebration, but video calls can substitute well enough in the meantime

#trousled arts #frisk #undertale #undertale anniversary #i guess i can give this my own ut anniversary tag too #undertale999 #i based their design off of kris i will admit..........i do not actually think those two are the same person but its fun to think about :>#no it doesn't technically make sense for frisk to be wearing a striped shirt in college but consider: i do what i want #i also loooosely tried to base the environment colors off of the different color palettes in game #aka the screen is very warm-toned like toriel's house and the first blue-ish bg is based on the lights off palette #the second one's bg is based on the library in deltarune #they are both here because i couldn't decide which i liked more but don't wanna work on it anymore lmao #that being said take it take it look at them waaaooohwhaoh

[ID: a digital drawing of the protagonist and gallica from metaphor refantazio, drawn in light, soft colors and a painterly style. The protagonist is depicted from the torso-up, and gallica is seen sitting on his left shoulder - they both smile at each other gently, with their eyes closed. End ID.]

Friends in fantasy...

#vi draws #their dynamic is so sweet and touching to me. they're best friends... comrades...#anyways uhm character designs in this game go insanely hard . thank you shigenori soejima for the food once more #also hi. this took really long but i had fun with the painterly style and all the design details...#metaphor refantazio #atlus games #metaphor refantazio gallica #metaphor refantazio will #one day ill get the courage to drawn louis. aka one of The character designs of all time.

Aune, my Dark Urge. She is feral cat-coded and likes speaking to mushrooms more than people. oh also she's in constant pain and mentally/emotionally/spiritually tortured by her murderous urges, but you know. same old same old

Last image shows most of her belongings. I'll be posting the items inside her memento box soon-ish! Both the book and the clockwork heart were pulled from the Horror Trinkets table, though I came up with the visuals. (To be specific, I referenced the table in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, one of two sources for the Haunted One background.)

#here we go again!!!!!!!!! I reformatted it because I finally figured out that tumblr hates landscape orientation lol #the quality is much clearer now yay!!#The portraits shows Aune's most common moods: filled with bloodlust & sad #had to include a “spore mode (aka symbiotic entity)” variant for bloodlust aune because realistically that's what's usually happening #that is who you face in battle lmao. good luck #I made a design for the ritual dagger because the one in game doesn't have a unique model. hopefully it's loviatar-y enough #and yes the anatomical heart & stand was built by exactly who you think :) :) :) :) :)#I really didn't want to include text on the character sheet for accessibility reasons but this was the only way I could think to #reformat it. I included alt text for everything though!#durge #bg3 oc #bg3 fanart #character sheet #bg3 #durgetash #...yeah I need gortash nation to see this #oc: durge!aune #my art #druid #half-drow

one thing about lorillee she is 🚨⛔❌🚫NOT🚫❌⛔🚨 good at mahjong

#there is a riichi mahjong club very close to where i live and i really want to try going at some point before i go back to college #and like obviously i learned how to play exclusively from apps #all of which are designed for english speaking users and therefore have aids to help you distinguish the tiles #(aka letters for the honors tiles and numbers for the suits)#but the tiles obviously wont have these so im trying to play without them so that if/when i show up to this club #im not a completely hopeless moron. But also its taking me 50x longer to do literally anything and somehow i feel ive gotten worse #which isnt great because im not very good at this game to start with. BUT WE'RE PERSISTING NONETHELESS

:] I have finally sat down and (slowly) did my first colored piece in a long while! A little ref for The Gatherer AKA The Hunter's mom :>

and now i can REALLY get into my crackship >:D

#i have not colored in so long it took quite a bit of effort and a couple of weeks fiddling #but i got it! -ish still not sure about the pattern on the sleeve so that might change again #For those unaware - The Gatherer is based off of the very first concept art for the playable character from Journey #and very highly likely her concept was reused to design The Hunter since many members of Giant Squid worked on Journey #and Hunter's father? another Journey Concept Character! who actually was called 'To-Chan' by playtesters aka 'Father' /D #tis the crackship part of the equation lmao #my art :v #The Pathless #the pathless game #journey game #journey 2012

To continue the woobified view of the Elites and my comparison of them to the Black Eagles :

Same for me regarding the BE, especially because they also literally fought Edelgard's troops in WC when you choose their house, and even if you don't, they definitely still would know that Edelgard dus nasty shits in WC.

The idea that media literacy is dead is quite fitting, because the idea that even rotten persons have loved ones/that having loved ones doesn't mean you're not rotten is a known thing, yet the Eagles and elites get a pass solely because "they genuinely believe in the cause" and "they love and care for each other"

Probably Fraldarius was as devoted to Nemesis as Ingrid to Dimitri, Lamine very well may have been as sassy as Dorothea, perhaps Goneril was as brave and endearing as Caspar, or Maurice was as loyal to his clan's interests as Petra to Brigid's happiness (through a strong bond to the Empire) but like the BE, they are butchers, who relished in the destruction of everything those against them hold dear, lap dogs and rabid curs of someone they definitely know have crushed innocents and scorn the very idea of peace except under their domination.

The only meaningful difference between Edelgard-following BE and the elites is that we can know more about the BE and we are forced to dislike cutting them down even as they refuse to let northern Fódlan alone.

Honestly I need a fanfiction where the BE are called out for that bullshit.

Yep!

That's the tone deaf feeling I got from Nopes, the Deers are hunting someone bcs their leader wants her dead for no reason, but Raph only comments on how hungry he is.

Uh, sure Raph, you're not the most thoughtful character in there, but come on? Some commentary or exposition on what you're doing? Hello KT? Can we have characters be challenged or even react to the events of screen instead of wondering what's for dinner/teatime?

No??

I wouldn't say it's an issue of media litteracy being dead, but more something in the lines of people being more and more "all or nothing" nowadays, without any nuance and conflating liking a character with the idea/image that might project on you : if I like ASOIAF's Cersei, I don't think everything she does is "justified", but modern fandom, I feel like some people would categorize you as a "good" or "bad" person based on the characters you like, and it's just... not what fandom is or was supposed to be imo, I'm here to nerd and gush about favourite characters, not write litteral essays about the Geneva Convention.

Corollary is what, imo, made the Fodlan fandom hell : some people really take "criticism" against a character personally - sure the way FE16 was written invites projection, but at the end of the day, making a Berning Fire Joke is, just, making a joke about a bunch of pixels, nothing more.

Back to the BEs, they can have a sense of camaraderie and genuinely support each other... as they tear apart "people because Supreme Leader told me to" and fight side by side with Bob the Carpented who was turned into Waldi the demonic beast.

Ferdie can skewer Flayn on her father's lance because she is "a creature that has plagued humanity for ages" even if they reached a C support before shit hit the fan - and still protect Mercedes and Bernie from their abusing Fathers. Does that make him a great guy? A nuanced guy?

I think the trope is called "even evil people have loved ones" or something like that?

I don't think so, but he is no random one note villain sycophant either - now, what is the more annoying with the Fodlan games is how this dichotomy is never called upon : everything is just a giant blob or Hresvelg Grey ("morally grey" but only applied to Supreme Leader) where no one really is angry at her, and all the "sacrifices" she's making are off-screen while the characters on-screen always moan about her "ReFoRmS" and "IdEaLs" without talking about the cost bar some milquetoast "but war bad". And no one, in the game, will ever throw this hypocrisy to their face - Gallant Ferdinand will dream about the Opera as he wipes off the blood of a young woman who just wanted to return to the only home she had.

Yay.

FWIW, some mutuals and I have nothing but pure lols about Doro's line in the non-CF routes being "we killed Ferdie professor :'(" because, hey, why should I care more about Ferdie than about random loldier 55 ? Rhea? Felix? Claude? Ignatz?

Maybe the Elites were really friends and became """"nice""" persons with time, to their families and loved ones ?

Does this magically erase what they did before? Will that "good" they did erase all the "wrongs" they have previously done? Will theyr forever escape the consequences of their actions?

In a game that depicts Flamey as a terrorist for 11 chapters only to drop that plot point by the window to moan, again, about her "IdEaLs", "consequences" are maybe something you can eat as a snack, or throw in a trashcan.

So following the rules of this verse, given how Supreme Leader never receives flak for her Flamey stunts, why should the Elites receive any for what they did? Look, Maurice calls Daphnel his friend, surely he is not that bad of a man? Well yeah, he might have seduced women and planted a lot of wild oats here'n'there, but he cares about his friends!

Jeritza likes ice creams and cats! Surely it's more important to paint him as a cat lover than to deal with all the consequences of his stunt as the Death Knight, kidnapping and implied rekting young woman while he was in GM, under Flamey's orders, right?

Calling it now, after eviscerating Seteth's older brother, Goneril might have melted in front of one of Rhea's kittens, and adopted the cat asap. Surely that makes Goneril a "good" character right? And forget the entire "genocided a bunch of hippies living isolated in their village" stuff?

I don't have fanfics recs where the BEs are called hypocrites, but I confess I don't read a lot of fanfics in the FE16 fandom because of all of the aforementioned issues.
