Warning, absolutely unobstructed yapping that I did not read over 😎‼️💪👇

I feel like this is a world relevant question framed in an extremely negative way. Is that not what sharing any creative work is like?

Perhaps controversial but I never understood people losing enjoyment of things because of other peoples interpretations?

My mind is my own untouchable movie theater to enjoy, nothing anyone else does or how they play will ever affect me in an irreversible or permanent way.

I always thought art is up for interpretation of the viewer, no matter what it is. No review is ever the same.

You cant misinterpret something that is created solely for the intention of interpretation and enjoyment.

I have never created art of a character that is ‘franchise accurate’ and nobody else should be ever be confined to that standard either.

This isn’t as simple as “would you be okay if your intentionally LGBT character had that relevant part of their character removed?” Of course not! That sucks! I don’t want to be complacent in letting bigotry ‘censor’ parts of a characters identity thats relevant to who they are and their motives!

But if ideals and traits and personality quirks are lost… even if full morals change- thats part of what happens. You released your baby out to the public, and now it’s EVERYONES baby.

You shared a part of yourself, but now everyone who touches it is going to attach a part of theme to it as well. It won’t look the same, and you have no control over what is added or taken away.

But something new is made, and as long as things keep getting made, you are going to keep getting inspired to start again.

Would you sell your fave OC for $1,000? You can still make art of them but, they're being sold to a franchise you personally hate that's could assassinate their character, and the fandom will misinterpret them no matter what.

Bring home a piece of Tumba Art. The natives of Bastar region have the knack and intelligence of using a local hard-shelled fruit for making bottles, utensils, cups and also musical instruments such as Tanpura. They also make use of this fruit for carving containers for storing water. 📷 @yukti_scribbles #tumbart #bastar #chhattisgarh #indianhandicrafts #indianart #art #india #etimeslifestyle #tanpura #cfor36garh #chhattisgarhi #vegetable #artist #jagdalpur 📸: @etimeslifestyle (at Chhattisgarh) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmI2jJ5LZed/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Still some of my favourite Prints left in my Online Store, for all the Half Bad Fans

Just random, I’ve been following you for about 5(?) years? I think? (COVID has my time all messed up still) and I must confess that for those years I’ve always seen your username as

Bass (the fish) tart. Like a fish’s dessert, but not a dessert made of fish, and

Bastar-rt, not in an offensive way I promise, just when reading your username aloud (for me) I begin pronouncing it as the swear and have to correct myself.

Gorg art, continue being an inspiration in the community

I kind of love Bass-Tart. But, yeah, pronouncing it as the swear is pretty much accurate XD It is something I have long since accepted as having not thought out

New Narrator?!

okay for those of you following me (I appreciate you guys sm) who know of my main Narrator, don't worry I'm keeping Henry, this is just more of a side project because I love villain narrators

That being said, this is Cross. A highly intelligent, highly egotistical BASTAR-

I mean uh evil man

His backstory/origin will be posted eventually when I can be bothered to write it all up but in the meantime I'll give you a short rundown (hey future me here it's a lot longer than intended haha oops) of who exactly he is and what his deal is, if you can't be bothered to read all of this rambling that I'm typing I am so sorry I am just kind of brainrotting a lot right now and I was supposed to post this yesterday and I forgot

Alrighty so:

Cross is unfortunately a good actor. He's cunning, sly, manipulative and overall he does not care what anyone thinks of him so long as he gets what he wants. However, with simple acting, he can conceal all of this and come off as the sweetest person you've ever met, despite the many ways he's thinking of to kill you while he tells you just how 'great' he thinks you are. Stanley sees him as what he pretends he is. He's unaware of the shit he's in.

Cross prefers people to not know his name, getting Stanley to call him X to keep his mysterious act up. Cross doesn't have an office to write his stories, despite having one backstage for other uses. He has a theatre. A huge, huge theatre where he demonstrates his acting to the shadowy figures that were once people he totally did not murder in a totally not extremely brutal way

His scripts go into shows, and the shows become the story. Whatever Cross does in the theatre, is however things are formed in the parable

He has some levels of necromancy, and also has the ability to create spikes made of citrine. When he's in a calm state the citrine is clear. When angered, the citrine appears cracked.

Another important thing is the shadow over his eye. Its not an art style, it's a design choice. He's hiding something under there, but I'm not revealing that just yet, and the only person who knows doesn't know how bad it is because there's one thing I haven't told them (you know who you are)

Anywho, yeah! Hope this wasn't too much to read, and I hope I didn't bore you, but thank you for reading if you made it to the bottom and I hope you guys like him!

P.S he is 7'2 okay bYE

Quick edit: I forgot to mention, he has black gloves with gold claws on them I just really can't draw hands hel, he also has big black boots (just putting this here because I saw a reblog of someone saying they wanted to draw him and TYSM GENUINELY)

I'm glad I was accurate, and making you swoon was a plus ☺️

Out of curiosity, if you feel like it, I wanna know what you think best fits me. I know you don't know much about Dungeons and Dragons, so I'll give you some descriptions from DNDBeyond plus a wacky ass description from me cause I'm feeling funny.

-Barbarian: "A fierce warrior who can enter a battle rage" Aka a muscle mommy with slight anger issues

-Bard: "An inspiring magician whose power echoes the music of creation." Aka a person who is always getting themselves into trouble, yet by some miracle always makes it out alive. P.S. keep them away from Dragons...

-Cleric: "A priestly champion who weilds divine magic in service of a higher power" Aka the guy that's like "do you have time to talk about out lord and savior Jesus Christ", but it's not Jesus Christ just some deadbeat god of theirs.

-Druid: "A priest of the old faith, weilding the powers of nature and adopting animal forms, " Aka your friendly neighborhood down to earth hippie

-Fighter: "A master of martial combat, skilled with a variety of weapons and armor" Aka the basic bitch in Dnd. People like to pick them cause they have a variety of skills.

-Monk: "A master of martial arts, harnessing the power of the body in pursuit of physical and spiritual perfection." Aka Aang in Avatar the last airbender

-Paladin: "A holy warrior bound to a sacred oath." Aka the loyal one with the fanciest armor.

-Ranger: "A warrior who combats threats on the edges of civilization" Aka a pretty badass loner with a bow

-Rouge: "A scoundrel who uses stealth and trickery to overcome obstacles and enemies" Aka sneaky sneaky stabby stabby

-Sorcerer: "A spellcaster who draws on inherent magic from a gift or bloodline" Aka the lucky bastared that didn't have to train to get their magic

-Warlock: "A wielder of magic that is derived from a bargain with an extraplanar entity." Aka *insert Mike Tyson saying "sign the contract big boy"*

-🪓

At first I was like "definitely a fighter" but then i got to the part where you called them a basic bitch, so i changed my mind 😭

Honestly, i feel like you're a mix of:

druid (10%), cause you seem like a friendly neighbourhood who would turn into an animal if you could 😭

fighter (30%), "master of martial combat, skilled with a variety of weapons and armor" literally you

rouge (15%), i feel like you could be sneaky-stabby, but only if you're pushed to the limit, not your default setting

monk (30%), "a master of martial arts, harnessing the power of the body in pursuit of physical and spiritual perfection" again, literally you

paladin (15%), "a holy warrior bound to a sacred oath" i feel like that also could be your thing, like a higher purpose you'd die for or something (protecting your so (excl bugs))

How did I do? Somewhat accurate, I hope

FNAE WIP/Sketch Dump!

I haven’t posted in a while but I have been drawing! I’m thinking that if I post some of these, I might be more inclined to want to draw or finish some of these lol. Check under the cut for the sake of not making a horribly long post lol

My First FNAE Sketches:

The experimental pages where I was still figuring out how to draw everyone. I just look at these pages and giggle at how much I struggled with March and Gugu’s mask lol. I loved to draw Fushi the most though (still do, I need to draw them more…)

(I also just realized I haven’t drawn Parona in a while. I should remedy that lol)

Misc. First Time Drawings:

Figuring out how to draw all versions of Tonari; A Baron Springroll for fun while I messed around with Watercolors; From a random Messar doodle to a full art page (my hopes is to have Zeno sign that for me some day) I have some Kai and Hairo art around there but I couldn’t find it.. huh; And my first time drawing Eko… this continues to be my favorite drawing of her that I’ve done lol, despite how sad she is ;w;

I was really starting to hit my groove with the characters here! I hated them at the time but I feel so warm seeing how nice Watercolor Bon is and how cool Messar looks! And how sad Eko looks ∠( . ; 」∠)＿

Oh there’s a picture limit:

Here take a silly Fushi for now! I sent this on discord once but never posted it bc it was kinda spoilery

Translation: Fushi pulled a power-up out of his ass and revived everyone (including Kahaku) “Come back to life motherfuckers, I’m shredded as fuck!!!” (Based on Jojo art by tanuki.boy99 on Instagram!)

The Bison Horn Maria tribe, also known simply as the "Bison Tribe" or "Maria Tribe," is a notable indigenous community in central India, particularly in the Bastar region of Chhattisgarh. Here are some key aspects of the Bison Horn Maria tribe:

1. Origin and Location

The Bison Horn Maria tribe is primarily located in the dense forests and hilly terrains of Bastar, Chhattisgarh.

They are a subgroup of the larger Gond tribe, one of the largest indigenous communities in India.

2. Culture and Traditions

Dance and Costumes: They are famous for their Bison Horn dance, in which men wear headdresses resembling bison horns, made from buffalo horns, decorated with feathers and beads. This dance is a celebration of their warrior spirit and is often performed during festivals, marriages, and other cultural gatherings.

Music: The Bison Horn Maria tribe has a rich musical heritage that includes drums, flutes, and other traditional instruments that accompany their dances and ceremonies.

Art and Crafts: Their art includes intricate designs, especially in pottery, weaving, and body art, including tattoos.

3. Lifestyle and Economy

Hunting and Gathering: They supplement their diet and income through hunting, fishing, and gathering forest products like honey, herbs, and fruits.

Trade: They engage in barter and local trade to acquire items not available within their community.

4. Beliefs and Rituals

The Bison Horn Maria tribe follows animistic beliefs, worshipping natural elements, ancestors, and tribal deities.

Ghotul Tradition: A unique aspect of their culture is the “Ghotul,” a youth dormitory system where young tribe members learn social customs, tribal lore, and marriage practices. It serves as a social and cultural institution in the tribe.

5. Challenges

Like many indigenous communities, the Bison Horn Maria tribe faces issues related to land rights, displacement, and the impact of modern development projects.

Efforts are being made to preserve their culture and provide them with resources and rights to protect their traditional way of life.

Their vibrant culture and unique traditions make the Bison Horn Maria tribe a significant part of India’s tribal heritage.
