#and i have a TON of animatic ideas

[itsahotminuteinbetween]

urg had other questions abt the truman au wowowowow

what abt eclipse? would there be an eclipse in this au ??? would he be trapped w sun or just as aware as moon???

ALSO, urrrmm are they separated in this au? Are they separated in the digital rendition and one body in the real world or the reverse of that??

After Sun escapes (if he does), how would he readjust to the real world? would he have conflict with moon after the fact?

sorry this au has got me in a CHOKEHOLD

BUDDY DON'T APOLOGIZE YOU'RE FEEDING MY BRAINROT AND I HEAVILY APPRECIATE IT

okay so I'm gonna be honest I haven't really fleshed out much of the details for this au (it kinda took a backseat in terms of development simply because no one was showing interest in it and my witch au was more compelling at the time), so I'm not too sure about an Eclipse. In terms of a combined Sun and Moon ai, that does exist (it only appears at the very end of the au, but it exists). There's also a possibility of their base functions that are fronting the body while these two are stuck in the mindscape gaining sentience and not being too happy about being forced back in, so take that as you will...

Sun and Moon do share a body within this au, with the two taking on separate forms within the mindscape, though they don't really stay in the same spot long enough to see each other properly. They mostly communicated through message exchange and an emotional frequency prior to events in the au, but the au basically starts with Moon already being infected, so they haven't talked in some time...

Sun doesn't escape for a good while-he's gone through a good many loops by that point and struggles with differentiating between reality and fiction. He experiences a lot of relapses where he's still convinced that he's in the mindscape, and sometimes his code mimics the functions inputted during that point, so that his thoughts are very jumbled and he can't really think straight. Moon can't really help him through this-how can he help when his mere image is the very source of the problem? If he tries to interfere, Sun becomes even more panicked and can't tell if it's the real Moon or what his brain replaced Moon with. It's extremely painful for Moon to watch knowing that he can't help or even be in the same room as his sibling without triggering a traumatic response. He usually excuses himself to go patrol (they get separate bodies after they reunite in the fire) and cycles through the daycare camera feed to keep an eye on Sun while giving him space. The only thing that really helps Sun is looking through his own programming and memory files to make sure that nothing's changed.

Moon also develops a severe fear of isolation and being alone-he gets antsy when Sun isn't with him, and often forgets that he and Sun aren't sharing a body anymore. He sometimes experiences this during patrols when it gets too quiet in his head-he always goes straight to the Daycare to make sure Sun's still there. Sun can't really snap him out of it, he just stays close and tries to talk about things to calm him down.

Hey there! Welcome to the Former Old Builders Club! We've got:

*points at Cassie* Gaslight,

*points at Harper* Gatekeep,

*points at Isa* and Girlboss.

...Any questions?

[eyeballs-in-my-head]

How do I schedule motivation?

Is there a cheat code for that...? Anyone knows it?

Can...

Can I have it??

[noxeorn]

I just realized that I'm actually so close to the 200 followers here??? HELLO????

Like, in the beginning of year I had may be 40-50 max, good chunk of which followed me years ago and ig inactive here now.

And there's actually so many cool people too, whom I didn't even expect to see among my followers originally :")

Thanks you all!

And sorry that there's almost no IZ stuff last months. xD I'm either busy with commissions, or other stuff., or just having a break from art at all in a free time.

[jouxlskaard]

Hi so I may or may not have forgotten to actually post these on here. Ofc the original concept goes to the brilliant @wolfythewitch, I've just leeched off of it because I wanted to see Elias in the Hermes suit. Also I wanted to see Jon and Martin doing a little dance. And the way I drew Tim as Orpheus is just.... so similar to how regular Orpheus looks. I am sorry. He has a boob window so it's more accurate to his character.

As I talked about in my ask to Wolfy (which I believe to be what drew quite a few people here? idk at this point), I have quite a few reasons for why I think Elias would fit the role of Hermes. Obviously he's a much more sinister Hermes, but it's a neat little concept to play around with. I think the little things Hermes says (like the line above) can be interestingly recontextualised when you view Hermes as an antagonistic force, rather than a guide/mentor. I thought it'd be interesting to see Elias as someone who helps Tim/Orpheus because he knows that it'll end in tragedy every time, and finds enjoyment in the helplessness that the audience faces knowing how it ends and being completely unable to change it. Get Beholdinged, babey!

Maybe I'll draw some Gertrude!Hermes....? Who knows - I'm currently in the middle of doing a shit ton of work at the moment, both for school and for personal reasons. I've got Mechanisms fanart happening, some concepts for myself as a Corruption avatar (nature!), ideas for animatics (which I admittedly don't have much experience in, but I will try to do it), and some other random ideas. Only time shall tell.

Kill Switch: Part Eleven

“Watcha said about Sinistar– How couldja say somethin’ like that?!” She ranted on, tears welling up in her eyes, “You know h-how scared I’ve–” The more she tried to talk, the more choked up she got, and she had to cut herself off to stop from full-on crying. Instead, she turned away from him, indignantly wiping at her face with her sleeves. Whether she’d been hiding her face out of anger, or simply embarrassment to be crying in the first place, he couldn’t quite tell. If anything, King Candy was mostly just baffled that she was this upset over what was, to him, something so trivial. To him, it had been nothing more than an impulsive comment made in irritation. It hadn’t meant anything. … But, to her, he had just dangled the possibility of throwing her safety away on a petty whim. As annoyed as he was at how seriously she was taking such an offhand remark of his, could he really be surprised that a stupid child would be so overdramatic about such things? He took in a shallow breath, careful not to let his annoyance show in the sigh that soon followed. “I didn’t mean it, glitch.” Vanellope still wouldn’t look at him, the smallest hint of anger in her voice when she muttered “Then why’d you say it?” That question had him hesitating to respond truthfully, for the answer was as simple as it was cruel.  He wanted to hurt Felix. In that moment, all he could think about was hurting Felix.  Unfortunately for King Candy, Vanellope had been caught in that vitriolic crossfire the second she had tried to defend his actual target. For that crime, did she not deserve to face some of his ire? If she had just minded her own business, this wouldn’t be a problem… but, ‘minding her business’ wasn’t in her nature. Nor would she take very kindly to his less-than-amicable reasoning, he was sure. “... I don’t know.” He chose to say instead. “But I didn’t mean it.”

Mionn's art & writing ship trade event

(Click the art for better quality!)

I'm hosting an art & writing event centered around ships & duos (multifandom)!

🖤 REBLOGS ARE SUPER APPRECIATED

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

I've recently reached 200 followers on this blog, 900 on my meme blog, and 100 on Instagram!! Honestly, I don't even know what to say... I feel so damn honored and am so grateful for the support!! 🖤🖤🙏

As a multi-milestone celebration as well as an event for the official Spade of Storms (Deuce x Allen) day, which is on the 27th of July, I decided to host a TRADE EVENT!!!

Basically, this event is going to be an open art/writing trade that's all about ships (or platonic duos).

The event starts on 7/23 (today) and lasts for rest of July as well as for the entirety of August. For every Allen x Deuce art/writing that I receive during this duration, you get one of your own ship from ANY FANDOM back!

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

Why am I hosting this?

it's a way to thank everyone for three different follower milestones

a contest/DTIYS/raffle wouldn't promise that everyone gets something back, so I went for a trade event

the event allows me to post more about other canon TWST characters and draw them while not having to neglect Allen x Deuce

I wanna make new mutuals & friends, get to know more ships, and strengthen friendships with mutuals I already have!

Artfight is/was tons of fun, but I only do/did colored sketches there & ships are a tricky subject. Meanwhile, I'll do ANYTHING here!

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

Basic information:

Make a drawing/writing/comic of Allen x Deuce. (Ideas can be found in this post's pink "starters for my ship" section.)

Post it on your blog, tag me in it, and refer to my event. (While posting is by far preferred �� especially for bigger artworks and written stuff — you can also just DM it to me.)

In return, you'll receive a gift of the same type for your own ship from any fandom (OC x canon, canon x canon, OC x OC)! I'll DM you about the ship, so make sure that your DMs are open.

For example: If you submit a sketch, you'll get a sketch back. If you submit a fully shaded drawing, I'II make a fully shaded drawing for you, too. If you add a background, I'll (do my best to) do the same. If you write a drabble... You know the drill!

ANYONE can join, whether you follow me or not! However, new followers through the event are super appreciated!

EVENT TIME: July 23th (today) - August 31st

Anything submitted before or after this event duration will not receive anything back (unless we explicitly do a trade), but be held in high regard nonetheless!

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

Rules:

The portrayal of Allen x Deuce must be shippy/romantic.

Please keep angst at a minimum unless it has a happy ending. Comfort is allowed.

Please DO NOT add your own OC or another canon character to the submission. Including them in the background as a wingman or something is alright, though. Additionally, any kind of romantic implications between Deuce and another character/OC are NOT allowed.

Please no NSFW. Harmless implications and slight spice are okay, but keep in mind that these characters are both minors.

AUs are very much allowed! All the previous rules apply here, too, and I'm willing to give an overview of some AUs via DMs.

Please no genderbending.

Please DO NOT draw Allen or Deuce as a standalone character. This is a SHIP event for a reason.

Please don't change their appearances too much, especially when it comes to the color schemes & body types.

Giving them different outfits — especially event outfits — is absolutely cool (yes, you can draw Allen in a skirt if you wanna), and changing their hairstyles is okay as long as they still look like themselves.

This is NOT A DTIYS event, so please DO NOT redraw one of my Allen x Deuce arts. Please come up with something original.

If you have any more questions, please DM me!

♤���♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

What CAN you submit?

drawings // comics // writings // animatics

For drawings, anything from a quick sketch to an extremely detailed drawing with a background is allowed! You'll get something of the same quality back. The same also goes for writings/fanfics.

Animatics will receive a drawing in return.

What CAN'T be submitted?

Gacha videos // edits // memes

-> You can theoretically submit all of these and I'd appreciate them, but I wouldn't be able to give you anything back.

Memes refer to funny pictures that simply have Allen & Deuce's faces in them. DRAWN memes/meme redraws count as DRAWINGS.

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

Starters for Allen x Deuce

Got no clue what to draw/write about?

Check out the few already existing Allen x Deuce posts on this blog for proper lore and facts.

Check @spade-of-storms for fun facts, shorter rambles and additional info.

In any case, you can't go wrong with simple fluffy, romantic scenarios! Dates, kisses, cuddles, whatever!

For information about Allen himself, please check my pinned post.

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

Q&A:

I want to join the event, but I don't have any ship (OC x canon, canon x canon, OC x OC) you could draw/write about for me in return.

That's okay! In that case, I'll gladly draw/write about two separate characters or a platonic duo for you.

Can I do multiple submissions for this event?

Obviously, and every single one will be "revenged"!

Can I get something of another type/quality back? For example, can I get a fully shaded drawing for my sketch, or art for my drabble?

Unfortunately not, as I prefer to always give something of the same type back. There are only the following two exceptions that I AM willing to do:

you do a drabble/oneshot —> I do a sketch

you do any type of art —> I write a drabble/oneshot

Is there anything you refuse to draw/write about?

Deuce ships (other than Deuce x Allen). NSFW. Family x family. Minor x adult. Any ship considered to be problematic.

How do I tell you about the ship I want you to draw/write about for me?

I'll DM you after you post your event submissions.

Do you prefer to do OC x canon, canon x canon, or OC x OC?

I have a bias towards OC x canon and canon x canon ships. However, I'm willing to do any ship that's not problematic! In the case of OC x OC, I simply need you to provide information on two OCs instead of one only.

Will you do poly ships?

In order to keep things fair, no. But I could include the third party as a plush or chibi head.

I want to make Allen x Deuce content for you, but not receive anything in return.

That's also super appreciated anytime (and totally doesn't make me freak out /pos)! Simply share it as a gift and don't mention the event.

How long is it going to take you to finish your "revenge" on me?

It depends on the type of submission you make & what I'm giving you back. Some things can be done within a day while others may take much longer, but either way, you WILL get something of the SAME TYPE back & that's guaranteed.

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

Personal notes:

My health isn't the best and I also have a job. Please be respectful and don't rush me nor get mad when I'm being slow.

Please do not start a discussion nor get mad at me if I refuse to draw/write about a ship I deem problematic & want you to pick another one instead. Preferably pick a ship that's by far NOT problematic from the beginning.

I'm unwilling to draw/write about any Deuce ships other than Deuce x Allen because I kin Deuce a ton and tend to feel uncomfortable with many of his ships, so please don't ask for any. I'm asking you to not start a discussion over this, either.

I won't post everything I make for the event on this blog. Sketches and writings will either be DMed to you or posted on one of my other blogs.

♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤

That's it for now! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to DM me.

And again, thank you so much for 200 followers!

♤ Happy trading! ♤

Since i mentioned i love EPIC have some ramblings i did about animatics that play in my head about danganronpa

SPOILERS for SDR2 and NDRV3

No Longer You - Hajime having a hunger driven fever dream while in the Funhouse, before Nekomaru’s murder, in which he encounters Izuru but doesn't know who he is at this point. Izuru says he cannot help Hajime out of the killing game, and retells past events as well as future ones to come in the killing game

Past events:

"Song of past romance" - Hajimes relationship with Chiaki before the Tragedy

"Sacrifice of man" - Natsumi and Sato's deaths in the anime (Fuyuhiko essentially sacrificed Satos life as revenge for his sister)

"Portrayals of betrayal" - Chisa and Mikan luring Chiaki and her class into the underground maze where she would be killed and the rest of the class driven insane by this

"A brother's final stand" - Chiaki going through her execution that drove the rest of her class to despair, determined to make it to them

"You on the brink of death" - Hajime agreeing to the Izuru Kamukura project, which would be the death of the old Hajime

"You draw your final breath" - Hajime going through with the IK project and being transformed into Izuru

"A man who gets to make it home alive, but it's no longer you" - Of course referencing the damage the IK project did to his body and mind, morphing him into an entirely different person

Present/Close future events:

"Your palace covered in red" - Hope's Peak in the aftermath of the Reserve Course committing mass suicide, as well as the killing game from THH

"Faces of men who had long believed you're dead" - After the IK project was successful, Hajime was said to be killed in some tragic accident, allowing HPA to explain his disappearance

"I see your wife with a man who is haunting. A man with a trail of bodies..." - This could be referring to Chiaki being connected to Nagito via being the traitor and chosen by his luck to kill him, outing her. As an Ultimate Despair, Nagito no doubt has a body count, or at least a trail of Despair he's left. This could also be referring to Hajime seeing Chiaki in the 6th trial when he's given up hope, referring to Izuru as haunting and the one with the body count.

Future events:

"Song of past romance" - Sonia being fucking devastated at Gundhams actions and death

"Sacrifice of man" - Nekomarus death, a sacrifice so everyone else could escape the Funhouse

"Portrayals of betrayal" - Gundhams supposed betrayal as the blackened who killed Nekomaru to allow the others to escape, as well as him fighting back still during the trial

"A brother's final stand" - Nagitos entire plan to expose the traitor with the bombs and his own death

"You on the brink of death" - the terror and confusion surrounding both the 5th and 6th trial and that they came so close to death many times

"You draw your final breath" - The old Hajime dies with the shutdown of the program, erasing that version of him from the simulation

"A man who gets to make it home alive, but it's no longer you" - After the end of the killing game and everyone gets out of the NWP, Hajime is a changed man. He's gone through a ton of character development compared to how we see him in DR3.

OKAY WISDOM SAGA IDEAS

Legendary - Kinda tricky but could either be Komaru being trapped in Towa City and desperate to escape OR Makoto just before he enters HPA when he's still full of hope and joy and no trauma, lamenting about how he wishes he could be as cool as the other Ultimates

Little Wolf - OKAY continuation of both of the ideas from Legendary (1) Komaru escaping the apartment and facing off against the Monokumas invading the building and Towa City, with Togami or Fukawa as Athena stepping in to help or (2) Makoto struggling through the trials and Kyoko stepping in as Athena to help him get through it

We'll Be Fine - EITHER (1) Toko as Athena talking about the killing game and Komaru as Telemachus just appreciating her and how good she is at fighting or (2) Kyoko as Athena Makoto as Telemachus after the first trial

Love in Paradise - Chiaki as Athena looking back on everything that Hajime has been through as he and the other remnants of despair are placed in the NWP. The lightning strike during the Thunder Bringer segment coincides with Hajime's last moments as himself before becoming Izuru Kamukura. The introduction to Calypso's island serves as an intro to Jabberwock and Hajime waking up on the beach after he passed out from shock. Hear me out - Nagito as Calypso, going over how theyre stuck there but the island is pretty cool. When we get to "7 years she's kept you trapped out of your control. Time can take a heavy toll" and we get to the angsty part, it's skipped to Hajime in the 6th trial spiraling from the reveal of the world and his identity. The overlapping voices are the voices of his classmates in the trial room and a mix of the ghosts of those who died. This is right before Chiaki confronts Hajime and restores his hope and will to live.

God Games - Okay this could easily follow the idea for Love in Paradise, with Chiaki still as Athena, Monokuma as Zeus and deciding to play one last game with Chiaki in the code behind the curtain. If she can convince some of the past victims with the strongest issues with helping Hajime after learning his identity as the mastermind, she can get through to Hajime and help him. Ibuki as Apollo (she just wants to hear Chiaki sing teehee), Nekomaru as Hephaestus (Hajime betrayed his cohort in the Reserve Course but of course they got the wrong version of the story because Junko), Mikan as Aphrodite (HEAR ME OUT), Gundham as Ares (has qualms because Hajime is giving up on life), Nagito as Hera

Not Sorry For Loving You - Tenko as Calypso, Himiko as Odysseus. Tenko apologizing to Himiko about how insistent she is but not apologizing for how she feels, with the sad viola at the end with Penelopes theme showing Tenko bowing to the floor on "why in the world won't you love me to?" Then it cuts to her murder scene

Dangerous - Kokichi as Hermes, Kaito as Odysseus. Kaito lamenting about his dead friends while trapped in the hangar and Kokichi coming in and convincing him to help him with his plan to end the killing game, with the exchange at the end happening as they're making the switch for Kokichi to get into the press ("Hermes! Thank you." "Don't thank me, friend, I'm not the one who fought for you." "Then, who?" "Haha, good luck!" And the who is Maki MAKI fought for him)

Charybdis - Kaito as Odysseus, and Charybdis and the effort of escaping it is represented by getting through the class trial according to Kokichis plan to end the killing hame. The whole song is told from Kaitos perspective while he's in the Exisal, and when he's referring to Charybdis as "you" and "your" he's referring to ***Shuichi*** the ultimate detective who can easily ruin this plan with his deduction. The switch at the end after seemingly making it through the trial smoothly ("There, I see it...") to the transition into Get In The Water ("What?") is prompted by Shuichi choosing to lie and say he saw Kokichi alive after the investigation started. Kaito panics and jumps out of the exisal, knowing Monokuma would kill them all if he stayed quiet. ("No... NO!")

Get In The Water - This one is a little tricky. It follows immediately after Kaito exits the Exisal, and Monokuma begins as Poseidon ("There you are... Coward."). Kaito doesn't defend himself, he's willing to sacrifice himself so the others can live, so Shuichi interjects as Odysseus and tries to use the argument they've had thus far to end the trial without a verdict ("Maybe, you could learn to forgive.", but of course, ("... No.") Monokuma sets up the execution anyway. As Poseidon's classic line continues ("Ruthlessness is... mercy upon... ourselves...!") Kaito walks willingly to the iron maiden rocket, sits in it, and it slams shut ("DIE!"). The Orchestra swells as the execution happens, and as Odysseus is plunged into the water in the song, at that moment Kiibos ahoge is knocked off as the rocket lands, sending him into silence without his inner voice. Kiibo hears the voices of his friends, long dead, and becomes newly motivated, both by their words and Kaitos sacrifice, to end the killing game with his own hands.

Six Hundred Strike - Now we're seeing it from Kiibos point of view and he plays Odysseus, destroying the academy in the name of all of his friends who died, directing the attack towards Monokuma rather than anyone in particular since this is before the 6th trial. When we do enter the trial, Tsumugi is saying Poseidons next lines ("You idiot... Can't you see? You sealed your fate, just to beat me." [On that 'me' Tsumugi cosplays as Junko, referring to the ideology and iconography of the killing game and that it would never die.]) HOWEVER, Odysseus' next lines are said by SHUICHI who is so broken and tired and anguished from all of this death and despair and facing the fact that the world isn't real that he breaks and screams at her ("All of the pain that I've been through. Haven't i suffered enough?! You didn't stop when I begged you!") And Tsumugi finally gives in and chooses not to vote at the end of the trial, giving Shuichi the end he wanted ("Alright! Please...")

[thecryptidart1st]

In one of your posts you said that there were some songs you were gonna animate with some characters either from The Graveyard Shift or idk. Are there any animatics about that topic that you have started?

I have no animatics, but a butt ton of hyperphantasia, so this ask was an opportunity to draw out scenes that haunt my mind every day

For The Graveyard Shift in particular, I have ideas for the following songs (sorta in order from least to most unhinged and including spoilers for future TGS characters)

"Shit" by Bo Burnham

Probably most of Tom Cardy (Perception Check and Hey I Don't Work Here shown here)

"You Didn't Know" from Hazbin Hotel , bc Lute's line didn't need to go that hard but its burned into my memory at this point (also this animatic somehow evolved from its initial concept while working on this ask so now it's Rosemary and Gregory)

"We Don't Talk About Bruno", but Michael Afton is Bruno being talked by every other mascot horror because Sammy's looking for him

"Waiting In The Wings (Reprise)" from Tangled the Animated Series (this is actually the most serious bc it's actual character growth between Mike and Doug)

"Forklift Simulator" by Sbassbear (bc I base Mike's and Ethan's friendship and humor off of Game Grumps interactions)

and finally "Bring In the Love" by Dankmus, bc this stupid remix has been haunting me for the better part of half a year now and stupid sexy workout William won't leave me alone

[itsahotminuteinbetween]

I should probably make some art for truman show au…

[your-ne1ghbor]

I love your art! Do you have more doodles of Star and Asha?

Awww tysm annoymous user!! I'm glad you like my art :D

👹Also I do have more doodles of the pookies im so glad you asked heheh👹

Heres some older ones I never posted:

(Star Boy is battling a astroid if you cant tell hehe)

And here is some newer ones I never posted:

one from that one post @spectator-zee did:

Giggling I love them

I haven't been drawing them much lately tho as much as i shouls because the royals have been invading my brain for the past 3 months so likeeee😭

But I have a reason for why tbhhh but I cant say anything because thats spoilers

Not only that but I do gatekeep a lot of my wish stuff sometimes, like I got a ton of wish stuff but I never uploaded it like this practice animatic of Welly Boots (so Asha coded ahhh) for example:

IN MY DEFENCE FOR THAT ANIMATIC, I HAVE NOT DONE A ANIMATIC IN A WHILE I WAS TYRNA GET BACK INTO IT WITH THIS ONE AHHHHHH

(ALSO YES I HAVE BEEN ADDICTED TO THE AMAIZNG DEVIL KILL ME-)

Sighh So many of their songs I can just tie them back to the characters it just pains me.

Also a lot of the doodles I have of them is pretty much plot related or sum. Which is why I didn't really upload them. Plus it is pretty contrived too like some of it is just there to get ideas out of my head lol

This includes some writing promts, but I won't upload them anytime soon since they are just spits of ideas yk?

Anyways yeaha thats all I got for now I hope you enjoy them :33

[kiwipineappleparasol]

Alien Stage | Round 7 releases oh so very soon… I am Quite Excited. I have decided to share most of my Alien Stage Scribbles beforehand.

(Spoilers below!)

So, first things first, here’s an Animatic idea I had … it is Lacking Sound because I am too lazy to sync the song I was thinking of to it Tonight, but Ah Well .

Some Completely Unserious Round 6 Scribbles

An unserious take on the “what if Till didn’t turn back” idea (sorry Mizi . sorry Sua)

(I honestly had a ton of different AU ideas relating to them (sometimes including Mizi & Sua) escaping/joining the resistance I had wanted to scribble sometime haha)

+ Various Other Unfinished Scribbles

I have Many More not shown here… but that’s for Another Time

[mellozheist]

hellooo!! first of all: I ADORE YOU your art is amazing and your animatics are so gorgeous and inspiring!! I'm sure you've already been asked this question but I couldn't find an answer so I figured it couldn't hurt to ask again: what program(s) do you use to animate? What's your process like?? I've been wanting to try and learn to make my own but I have no idea where to start and I figured I should ask a master :P

ello! I appreciated your kind words :D

sorry about the delayed reply, I thought I could have drawn my process out for you but it turns out I don't have enough time so here I go

I use Clip Studio Ex (still on ver.1) only Ex can do animation If you considering buying it

CSP Pro can only animate 12-24 frames which is difficult to work with

I wish to get back on Toonboom but I'm hella out of practice (It's a good program tho, though just not so friendly with beginners)

My process is to find inspiration first, for example

when I do fan animation/animatic like Hermitcraft or Life series

I just listen to the audio or songs on a loop until I have a rough idea in my head of what I want to draw

(When you start something, Just use the idea of "What you want to draw/express" not what others want to see, Just make sure you're having fun, and we can figure out along the way later)

TIP : If you don't feel like starting making animatic right away, I suggest you make other kinds of art for that Idea first, like some sketching art, illustration for catching the vibe you want to go for, or just character design as a reference! :D

after that, make rough sketches, It doesn't have to be pretty, just do a quick sketch so you won't forget the vibe and energy (it can be on paper, I recommend using a pen instead of a pencil cuz you won't have to delete and redraw, just make a new one, it's quicker)

I make re-sketching sometimes to fix composite or make a better pose sometimes, timing and spacing are also very important to make the movement smooth

I make a line of action guide for some difficult movements sometimes

When I do Lineart I just open all the videos to watch while head empty cleaning Lineart

There are many more processes for professional animators

I recommend you check out videos, there are tons on YouTube

here's some that I learned from

[heckyeahponyscans]

I've been watching a ton of Youtube videos reviewing and rewriting Disney's Wish movie. There are a lot of bad movies out there, but what makes this one unique is that nearly everyone agrees that this movie had good bones, but was executed poorly.

The villain song really exemplifies this, and not just because it has lyrics like "It's genetics, yeah I got these genes from outer space" (which he didn't, by the way.)

The king's flaw is he's over-protective which leads him to be too controlling of his subjects. He takes their wishes from them (which makes them forget what they wished for) and won't grant most of them or give them back. When he was a child, marauders destroyed his kingdom and killed his parents (I think?) which instilled a fear of other people's motivations. So now he's a control freak.

So here's what the king's villain song establishes:

He's vain! This has never come up before and doesn't have anything to do with his villain motivations.

Then we have lyrics suggesting that he exploits people's labor and takes the credit for himself to make himself look good. ("I'd give the clothes off Benito's back, if you really needed that. I'd be the first one to volunteer Henry if your home were to crumble.") BUT the king studied hard to master magic, built a kingdom, and sometimes magically grants wishes. No part of that is stolen valor. This lyric doesn't make sense.

Then the infamous "I let you live here for free and I don't even charge you rent" line. I'm not going to talk about why it's stupid because everyone else already has.

Then the king compliments himself a bunch, and I guess the takeaway is he's narcissistic. Okay. BUT. That still doesn't tie into his motivation for hoarding the wishes! Which is that he's over-protective and paranoid about what the 'wrong' wish could do! This song is a mess! Just like the movie it's in.

Wish has an interesting premise. It could have been a good movie. I like a lot of the early concept art and ideas, some of which even made it to the animatic stage. But instead it's full of non-characters blandly imitating the actions of classic Disney characters without any understanding of what made classic Disney great.

There are still creative people working at Disney and I feel bad for them. The call is coming from inside the house, and it's coming from executives saying "Nix the shapeshifting Star Boy, the stockholders want something that will sell more plushies."

It’s this time of the year again, folks. Time to wrap up the art Ive made in the last 12 months in another Year in Review! I’ve noticed that this is my fifth Year in Review in a row, so I’ll be making an extra post looking back on the progress in those last 5 years!

I've got a lot to say about this year, but purely art wise, I've gone all when it comes to comics, damn! I've kinda found a format that is messy, and therefore more time efficient, yet still looks good. I even made 2 animatics and lotsa shorts/reels! All that on top of opening coms twice, and, oh yeah, MAKING A WHOLE ASS 4MIN ANIMATION ON MY OWN.

How is my hand still alive.

2023 has been….interesting, to say the least. The first half year I was working on my thesis project, aka making an animated short all on my own (in the art department), which makes it honestly surprising how much I managed to churn out between animating. Trigun rly did have me in a choke hold.

Summer was a bit more spotty, esp. with me not being able to draw anything during August as I was writing my thesis (and doing commissions). And towards the end of the year, Kingdom Hearts tried to save me, but alas, Genshin Impact has finally sunk its teeth into me and dragged me to the bottom of the rabbit hole. It all started with me watching a story summary and lore videos while I was sick after my thesis and I was too intrigued to not dig deeper and well, first I fell in love with Kaeya and then the ships started dropping in left and right.

I’m not gonna lie, the last few months have been weird. I finished my masters in October, and have been on job hunt since, sadly without success so far. I’m existing in this weird limbo of still not grasping I’m not a student anymore after 18 years in education, not really being able to accept I’m an adult, yet desperately trying to find something so I can make a routine, cos rn Im too scared to build a rhythm as I know I’ll have a so much harder time readjusting again. It’s left me in a weird emotional state, where most of the time I feel fine, but when it counts, there’s just, nothing. No joy at getting my diploma, no anticipation to finally go to a convention again, neither any sadness hearing my grandfather died. It frustrates me that it extends to my art as well, there’s excitement over ideas and concepts, but no motivation to pick up the pencil, which makes me either not finish art at all or making so many shortcuts and just ending up with sth not satisfactory to me since it’s not the idea I sought after.

Tho, not everything is doom and gloom. I DID finish a whole ass short animation and got my masters degree, that IS sth to be proud of. Also, while Im struggling at drawing, I’ve also kinda started integrating my shortcuts into my style and some stuff I’ve thrown together actually turns out real good nowadays. Also, and this might be a bit of a weird one, I’m so fucking happy to know I can still enjoy gay ships. I’ve been a bit uncertain over the last few years because when I was around 16-18, I had a real big yaoi phase, which mostly came from the fact so much stuff came out that tickled my brain in the right way (Free, Haikyuu, etc.). But over the years, my enthusiasm died down, and I even started to resent some ships because it’s all some fandoms produced. I often found myself liking a hetero ship more than the popular gay ship, which really made me not wanna stick around because I did not care for most fanart and you can only go through a tag with art you don’t care about so long before you lose interest. I think in retrospect that it rly had nothing to do with the ships being gay ships but rather cos the fans just shoved it in your face when you didn’t care (and shipping culture nowadays also can get real scary). But I’m so happy to see I can still get obsessed with a ship and it’s all thanks to Haikaveh/Kavetham. It really just needed the right flavour for me to dig in again. And oh my god, I FINALLY like a ship with a SHIT TON of art and fanfictions, no more scrounging the crumbs from the bottom of the barrel. 

Anyways, enough lamenting. Here’s to hoping I can bite my tongue and get shit started properly in 2024, and that my brainrots may make me obsessed enough to churn out an obscene amount of fanart again.

i actually need animatic ab so bad, it's unhealthy. i lick actual. uhm circles because i want them so bad. i need to eat them. i think of them night and day, i wish to fall asleep holding my animatic plush & cuddle them and love them and my 20+ pictures of them watch me sleep every night and i cry when i remember theyre not real. i never make any sorts of paper crafts, but i still have one i made of them from like two years ago and i still cherish it. i wake up every morning & think "what a wonderful day to love animatic!" i start the day thinking of them. in school when someone says animatic i whip around and say "where!" i talk to my parents about them. i have a 10 page document on my notes app of my ideas about them + tons of x oc oneshots and i draw them so much and i giggle when i see blue and when my therapist asked me to draw a symbol representing love in my eyes i drew a circle with a crosshair and i have so much lore for them and their family in my headcanons and they are my phone wallpaper and my tablet wallpaper and i would make them my actual room's wallpaper but i'd have to take down all my pictures of them. they are my lover and we are happily married and we kiss every day. they are like the sun to me, just as warm and radiant and beautiful and they give me as much life. animatic is my hope, my joy, my heart, my soul, my live, my laugh, my love, my blood, my sweat, my tears, my everything. my reason to live. my one true love. no one will ever take them away from me. theyre mine forever and ever. the reason why i get sleep, why i eat, why i do everything. they are my life. animatic ab is my life. i am animatic's number one fan, spouse, and partner. it is me, it always has been me, and it always will be me. me and no one else. no one else. no one else. no one else. i am animatic's one and only, and they are mine too.

-sincerely, the down horrendous animatic anon

i think the marker copypasta is my favorite joke on this account
