Mechi is studying hard, as usual. Powered by unshakable curiosity and Dalgona coffee (which gives a huge research boost).
Hmm. He's been drinking a lot of Dalgona coffee lately, actually. If only we had an animal that produced milk so we could make lattes for some variety...
Yep, wildebeest milk lattes will do. Better than nothing.
We can finally get rid of those pesky wild people who've been loitering on our lawn (and in our hospital in Eugenia's case)! They'll accompany Melissa to Arwell once we've whipped up some bedrolls. We wouldn't send an old blind lady all that way by herself, after all. We're not monsters.
You're lucky we have lots of coffee, LeJeune. (They had food poisoning from their diet of raw agave fruit which is why they were in so much pain)
Finally, we passed up a sketchy offer for a psylink neuroformer. I do kind of wish I'd accepted this quest, though. I want to know what it was!!! We'll accept it next time... maybe.
When your in that weird age group where your too young to remember more classic internet era memes and old YouTubers like Smosh or whatever, but your also old enough were you weren’t an iPad baby obsessed with skibidi toilet and rainbow friends
Anyway I grew up (sorta? Is grew up the right term?) with Dantdm, game theory, fnaf, undertale, BATIM, little nightmares, cuphead, baldi’s basic, slenderman Roblox games like survive the natural disasters, royale high, bake a cake, epic mini games, minecraft, animal jam, subway surfers, diary of a wimpy kid, Tom gates, 13th story tree house, captain underpants, that dog comic that was made by the same guy as captain underpants, Gacha life, animation memes, vine, ASDFmovie, nyancat, epic face, tattletail, Annoying orange, ALL of the story time animators and a lot more I’m forgetting. Anyway I’m glad I wasn’t a iPad baby lmfao.
Concept art/character design for a potential music video. I've had "Mirrors" by Caravan Palace stuck in my head and figured it could be a cool soundtrack for a film exploring the relationship between my pre and post transition selves. Will this go anywhere? No clue, but I'm not putting the pressure of an entire animation on myself yet, so I'll take it little by little :)
if succession was made just a few years earlier we would have seen seen shit like an animatic of shiv roy singing The Room Where It Happens from Hamilton
I do know that due to Laios' thing about trying to talk shit out first and generally not retaliating or defending himself when people are being dicks to him in this au people sometimes forget that he's a werewolf a lot and when they do remember tend to view his wolf forms with 'big friendly dog' lenses instead of a 230+ lb giant carnivore who very much could tear them to pieces if they keep pushing him and hitting him but chooses not to b/c grown folks are supposed to use their words/he'd rather not harm folks if it can be avoided/fighting back never worked out much in his experience.
Randy Random decided that Salvatore the cat was not enough for our colony and sent us eleven chickens, a brachiosaurus (we hunted it for the fifteen units of kibble and three silver it was carrying), and a feralisk migration (which we steered well clear of).
AND THEN Randy sent three caravans in rapid succession, one which had Socks' wife (Socks is in prison atm), and one with Vasso's biologically-older, chronologically-younger brother.
We sold all our male chickens to one of the caravans, I didn't pay attention to which one it was, and now we are down to four out of eleven chickens, which is much more manageable.
A man named Purple Shark crashed near us, and we deigned to rescue him, but if he wants to stick around he'll be treated to the same fate as Socks and Blackdragon.
Speaking of Socks and Blackdragon...
They tried to break out together (how the tables have turned from Blackdragon holding Socks prisoner!!), and we decided now was as good a time as any to begin our violent conversion while our guest Purple Shark slept in the background.
Blackdragon was first up, and he saw our "reasonable ways" (what reasonable ways??) and converted. So it looks like we won't be eating him anytime soon, but he is still in jail until we can recruit him. We do have to wait twenty days before we can do the ritual with Socks, but if she converts in those twenty days, we'll just recruit her and be done with it.
today went from a potentially awful day to an absolutely fantastic one, Caravan Palace debuted an incredible music video for a banger of a single (Mirrors), Arcane released a teaser for season 2 and some more info, Jaiden Animations uploaded another yt short, and both of the performance based assignments I've been dreading were pushed until Monday my day genuinely can not get better
Camel caravan, 2018, Acrylic painting on canvas, 120cm x 90cm (48 x 36 inches).
This is my early work from 2018. When I was a little child I was impressed with the desert and the Arab world. It is so magical and so beautiful.
As a small child in the 80s of the last century, I watched the news, which unfortunately was not always happy from that part of the world, but I also watched travel shows that delighted me with that part of the world as from the most beautiful fairy tale. All those childhood memories inspired me to fill this canvas. Everything is painted in a childish way.
