#and i had a fucking blast

[chussyracing]

I have been in different fandoms before, although none of them had such a split-up fan base. But of course, for sports this is normal, I guess. I have been part of fandoms of tv shows and movies. Of course fandoms like these work completely differently than rpf.

And no, I don’t follow blogs who post about drivers that I don’t care about. Like you said yourself as a fan you gravitate to people who support the same believe (or person) as you. For example, I would never follow someone who supports stroll, because he is my least fav driver, but if I follow someone who supports Charles and Stroll and I find the Charles content interesting, then I will not block them, just because I don’t like stroll. Same goes for shipping.

My point was more like that if I am confronted with opinions that I don’t like or even find stupid I will not block them, (I only block bots) because if you block everything that you don’t want to see you get a false feeling of how the fandom as a whole thinks. And you will get the false feeling that everyone thinks like you, and if an opinion, that you don’t agree with, slips through even though you blocked so many people, you will get even more irritated than you maybe normally would, because you are so used to only seeing things you agree with. I am generalizing here tho.

Honestly, at the end of the day everyone is allowed to do exactly that. I think what made me go to your inbox was your tag: we could have been friends. (I guess you were at least half joking) but I already have strong opinions of blocking people, just because you don’t agree with them on certain things, so now here we are. Just to be clear, I understand blocking to a certain level when a blog only posts hate or always has the complete opposite opinion, but I get a bit sensitive when it happens just because you don’t agree with them on one thing and you don’t want to be confronted with anything that doesn’t align with your believe system.

Fuck that was way too long…

ah don't apologise, it was a nice read and i asked for it to understand your perspective a bit better!! it's interesting because we clearly view fandom and blocking completely differently.

i will try to keep this brief as my mobile data are STRUGGLING to keep me connected here.

i don't come here to exercise the use of fallacies in arguments and practice objectivity and comparison to others and the views of others, the aim is to get the validation and sometimes even agreement on consciously untrue or incomplete piece of information. i come here for the shits and giggles and having fun at something that doesn't matter at all in the grand scheme of things. if i wanted to confront my views with valid critique and different point of view, i'd never do that on tumblr, i'd focus back on academic environment, i'd hand in the essay on the underlying motif of misogyny in the greek mythology inspired poem i read a few years ago to the literacy journal like i wanted to do years back

and finally blocking has nothing to do with the person, rather their blog and i am separating the two here ALTHOUGH i can easily imagine situation where i go click that button due to a specific user rather than their posts. it's so easy for a reason, someone posts too much in the main F1 tag and you are bothered by it? make your experience easier, go and block that blog. they hate a driver you love or love the driver you hate? just hit that button and you never have to see it again. they have an icon that bothers you when you see it in the tag, open their blog and block it.

hi the wip for this was absolutely not supposed to blow up. why does that have 1k notes. horrifying. anyways!!!! it’s update time baby!!!! 64 new assets this time around!

so that’s what the caption was supposed to be. this update was already pretty damn big and took a ton of time to make!!! and i was finally done!! but then my hand slipped and now we’re at 143 new assets. super sorry for the delay! That Was Not Supposed To Happen.

i’ll go more indepth below the cut, but this update encompasses all menu/profile art for both isat and sasasaap, battle portraits for sasasaap, every single pixel icon in isat (to my knowledge anyways), the dialogue skipping animations, and a few miscellaneous additions.

also i spent too much time on these to put them below the cut so Please God Look At My Icon Resprites I Spent 16 Hours On Them. enjoy!

okay first things first. why the hell is this batch 143 assets. so. i HEAVILY underestimated how many times the menu drawings are used in the games. even removing all of the custom art, it’s still ≈30-40 variations! that’s a lot! and once i finally finished everything, i got Posting Anxiety and somehow convinced myself that attempting Animation And Pixel Art (two things i haven’t done in YEARS) would be easier than writing a normal post. so here we are.

the custom art here is pretty much par for the course at this point. extra menu art for bonnie, extra expressions for the party in act 5, we’ve done this enough times that it’s expected. i am aware that bonnie’s custom menu art gets completely covered by the ui. i kept it in because it’s really funny (and also i didn’t feel like extending the sprite (but then the sasasaap version forced me to extend the sprite anyways so Whartever)).

once again, provided a spritesheet for sasasaap’s battle portraits! i do intend to cover both games, it’s just a slightly lower priority atm. unlike isat though, i’ve got Less (read “No”) experience with sasasaap, so there might be more issues with those assets?? apologies if there are, i’ll try to fix any issues that come up!

the Miscellaneous Additions i mentioned above are the sprites used on the teleport map and the loading screen, which is just a tiny version of the skipping animation. they were pretty small, so i figured i might as well get them out of the way!

not actually much to say about the 75 icons surprisingly! i haven’t done pixel art in about 5 years?? and that’s a Travesty actually these were super fun to make. i did make mockups for the overworld sprites earlier, but they aren’t Officially part of the redraws (yet) so they’re getting posted seperately

and also!! some exciting news!! this project might actually become a Proper Published Mod pretty soon!! i’ve been in contact with someone who’s willing to help me get everything set up, and i’ll be getting a Usable Computer around the end of the year!!!! it’ll still be at least a month before it’s up (i’d like to get the enemy art finished beforehand wauaua) but!!! still exciting!

okay, i think that’s everything relevant to the update!! i Definitely can’t fit all of the relevant assets here lol. but i’ll try my best ! please enjoy !!

I’m so tired of AI, and I’ve been yelling to the void about why people should be commissioning artists. In the spirit of anti AI/pro comms, what are your favourite commissions that you have worked on in the past and what was it that made them special or fun (commercial/non commercial) I’m absolutely obsessed with your stuff btw!

Oh thank you! And fun question! My top three will probably be the book covers I illustrated:

I’m working on two more right now and I’m pretty sure they’ll be up there as well!

These are some of my other favourites:

In order: Bharatanatyam dancer inspired spider-woman India, Alex and Henry for @orchidscript, Luke and Duncan for Isabella Renee’s book I Vote You Mr. Mayor, nanirimo’s OCs Niya and Marin, and heaventide_’s OCs Jonathan and Seph!

Also I’ve never posted any of these, but I think I have to give special mention to how many finn wolfhard cinematic universe commissions I’ve done 😂

Left to right: Richie and Eddie from IT, Boris and Theo from The Goldfinch, and Chris and Shannon from Finn’s directorial debut Hell Of A Summer!

I feel like this is the perfect time for me to plug that my commissions are now open again! 👀

Just some self-indulgent Rayllum drawings where I’ve trans’d their genders

1. Trans masc Rayla (Ray??? To be rly uncreative lol) coming back after two years, during which a lot of Self Discovery happened (and Callum is surprised but not disappointed)

2-5. When they finally properly Talk About It with all the Hurt + Comfort it entails :’) Also I headcanon Callum as Bi or Demi so gender really never was an issue, but of course Ray has Insecurities about it.

6. Trans masc Rayla & Trans fem Callum >:) They’d be so supportive of each other

7. More trans fem Callum plus Rayla and her in cute nightgowns cus why not! I also headcanon Rayla being Bi/Demi too so they’re still very much in love no matter what

(I also have a very rough comic about trans masc Callum and trans fem Rayla coming out to each other but I gotta clean that up A Lot before it can see the light of day)

Last week episode has me still on a chokehold and when I saw the preview of Vash and Knives meeting in the piano room, this exact scenario appeared in my head.

Having just read the "Fifth Moon" chapter of Trigun fueled the whole thing, too.

So yeah.

Will it happen? Probably not. Did I have to draw all of this anyway? Absolutely yes.

Enjoy this mess.
