well well well, happy 200th chapter of Black Butler! it's been a long, long time~

I am happy to participate in @bibyshitsuji24k 's 200th chapter event, where I chose to redraw one of my old works! in reality, the first art I did of black butler was a Grelle drawing that.... it way too bad 😶 but this is actually the second piece I did! or atleast the second I posted to the animo. I had found this DIY sticker procedure and I decided to try it out. it was really fun at the time! even if I now see they turned out... not great😅

so I was very thrilled to recreate that process after almost 4 years!! it was a little different than last time, I must have used different wax paper last time cause I swear it was lighter. but otherwise, I think I improved :D

wait I think I was supposed to use tracing paper... better to look at the directions next time.

I'll update is I ever find a good place to stick them :]

missing the maribelle/tharja family unit today. i think maribelle would be elated to have a daughter. she meets noire for the first time and she goes “do you play chess? violin? ride? drink tea?” and noire goes “no but im really good at throwing up in a bucket” and maribelles like “oh!!!! okay!!!!” i think she finds noire’s talisman persona charming. chrom is like “um maribelle can you please go get your daughter… she’s terrorizing the camp” and she goes “shes harmless! why do you hate women?” and he never speaks on it again. i think tharja needs a kid that will beef with her and i think brady is 100% the guy to do it. i think she looks at him and goes “what is your problem” and he flips her off. she tries to curse him but he spins his staff ninja style deflecting them back at her. he serves tea to his moms but he spits in tharjas and she knows it. and then she drinks it because it pisses him off. brady could come to love her at some point but it will not be easy and it will not come without a lot of work and a lot of arguing and i think i need some more parent/child conflict in this game. awakening gets one f bomb and its hidden in the random tharja brady PC support where he just goes “FUCK YOU” Tharja and Brady attained support level B.

Uh oh mr. citrus clementine.... someones in a pickle (been trapped in his own mind for months after having to lobotomize himself to gain critical information that would have otherwise killed him and wiped out any memory of his existence)

Day 7 - Maremma Sheepdog

I remember this particular dog was not happy to be around so many other dogs at the show, he was fluffing himself up all the time. That's also the situation where the ref pic has been taken. But I liked the pose and intensity of his expression, so for once it's not a happy dog I'm depicting XD

Also 2.5 hours! I'm fascinated that no matter how hard or easy the process feels to me, the time taken is incredibly consistent with these busts.

I knooow Apollo literally only did his job but I can't even begin to image what it must feel like to face him after he put both your brother and best friend into jail and YET you STILL smile at him like nothing happened and you never once held that against him. are you aware how fucking kind that is? HOW KIND YOU ARE!! bless you, we love you Klavier. (but also !!! how do you deal with all that?! I'm so confused, I'm so!!!)

“..Ach, maybe, but isn’t the courtroom as much of a stage as any Gavinners concert?”

“And besides, Herr Forehead was only doing his job—what he had been taught. I… cannot fault him for that.”

“I’d want forgiveness—or just plain kindness—after everything too, ja. I can’t imagine he’s not feeling some kind of hurt too.”

nate being the only doctor makes me wonder what he's had to do for the others before

Nate does a lot for the crew. (Also woo look at his human disguise!)

When he's not actively treating or checking on them, he's constantly working to compare studies and test data to understand how to treat his friends, seeing as they have widely different genetic makeups and could react in ways that are *catastrophically* unexpected.

He can't use human rules when working on them, which greatly complicates things when he's educated in treating humans. Sera and Vince naturally have nucleated blood cells for greater oxygen input since they're always in rigorous activity, but this is a sign of leukemia or other major deficiency in humans. How do drugs interact with their bodies? what reaction will their immune systems have? do they have an intolerance to certain chemical developments?

This is partly why Vincent underwent so much testing and experimentation- to catalogue and document an atlas for the reproduction and understanding of this hybrid Variant species, and how every facet of its anatomy works in that respect. Like a rough draft you don't care about messing up, and use only to learn from.

Sorry Vince.

It's a wonder how Nathaniel was able to successfully recompile enough information to save his friends at all. It's a lot of stress on one guy with no nurses! That goes without saying for Amon (who is a beastshifter) Sonia... (Who is a living chemical synthesis lab) The various other people who end up joining... (Who shall remain incognito)

...Yikes.

He has likely seen all of them naked at least once, due to emergencies. He's extremely professional, so it's like it never happened... But it's still never fun to have to use that kind of ER protocol on your injured friends and associates.

Everyone except for Vincent, since V never lets Nathaniel treat him for anything, even when he needs it.

Instead, everyone caught a harrowing and unwanted glimpse of Vincent when he landed back home after streaking in the rain. He now flies with his pants duct-taped on. And goggles. For the glare and the overwhelming surplus of bugs he slams into at twice the speed of a f1 car.

How did you render Dingo’s suit? It’s so pretty

thank you! i’ll try & explain what i did here lol (it will Not be very technical & a tad rambley):

i feel i should preface that i draw on procreate, altho i know you can do all the same things on other programs too for the most part

anyhow, it’s just 4 layers to get the effect (had to do a little box to show that part bc i merge all my color layers typically & dingo got merged lol)

(also ignore the high layer number i have like 18? drawings all on this one canvas, i draw on one canvas ‘til it wont let me anymore)

but as you can see i started w/ the base being pink & everything is just clipping layers above that.

i went over the pink w/ a darker magenta-y shade forming some blobby shapes, mostly around the edges of the jacket, adding these little lines going off of these blobs to add some more variety. from there i change the layer blending mode to hard light, lower the opacity of the layer down (here it was lowered to 30%) & apply gaussian blur to make it softer

the next layer? very similar, i use the same magenta shade, make blobby shapes inside the previous ones, just omitting the extra lines, & change the layer blending mode again to hard light, lower the opacity of the layer down (here it was lowered to 50% instead, making it a bit more saturated) & apply gaussian blur

the last layer is the highlights, which i just used pure white for, & did more rounded scribbles in the spaces between the shading blobs. from there i used gaussian blur again, & changed the blending mode to add, & brought the opacity down (the highlight actually got the lowest opacity at 15%)

& that’s how i did it, altho if all those words do Not help i also have this clip from the time lapse for drawing dingo (i set procreate to always save time lapses of my drawings, nice for future reference)

hey sara when you read rwrb did you also assume alex knew he was bi up until his sexuality crisis revealed the truth to you or was it just me who labored under delusions for the first 25 percent of the book, a whole quarter of the way through, before getting the shocking surprise that alex claremont-diaz, main character of nyt bestselling debut novel red white and royal blue, by author casey mcquiston, was NOT an out and proud bisexual man?

no actually, because im not delulu like u are . anyway .

I have decided I want a new hobby, especially since I am going to be leaving my job beginning of April. I have tried quite a few things but the things I have tried have caused pain in my hands. My new endeavor is digital doodling and drawing cute little things. I downloaded a few tutorials and I have mostly been tracing things but I have also been trying to draw without tracing. I am having fun! I would love to create a little icon? little guy? cute little creature? to make buttons out of. I think that would be so cute 🥰 Anyway as someone who cannot draw, I am having fun and I think I’m doing okay too!

The ultimate multitask: studying C.S. Lewis, while dyeing your hair raspberry pink for a dance, while listening to kpop, and only pausing to deliver the last of your lemon cupcakes to a very pretty boy and you still have dye in your hair and on your forehead
