My bois ok right?????? My sweet nephews ok right??????

Rex stared blankly at the two forms Echo and Fives, his two newest shines, just handed him. Maybe if he waited long enough the problem would disappear.
“What is this?”
“Request for reassignment sir.”
The two troopers had been under Rex for three weeks now. One day on Coruscant and they’re already requesting a transfer. Checking the clock confirmed it had been exactly 17 hours since the ship had landed. That had to be some sort of record.
“And why, exactly, do you want to transfer?” Rex asked tiredly.
“We met Commander Fox sir.”
No fucking shit. So he every other shiny that stepped foot on Coruscant. There was a very legitimate reason reassignment requests could only be filed after four months of deployment.
“We got attacked in the street and he appeared out of no where and beat the shit out of those guys then took us back to the barracks and told us we were doing a great job and that he’s very proud of us.”
“We would have been here sooner but we were crying.”
Rex sighed. “Your requests are denied. Get out of here.”
The captain dropped into a chair as the two men scurried out of the room, clearly disappointed. He shook his head as he pulled out his comm to text his older brother.
Rex: Stop stealing troopers.
Fox: no 🥰
Rex: What is that?
Fox: it’s an emoji
Fox: uncultured swine
Fox: which I could teach your shines about if you weren’t a prick
Rex: seriously, stop taking everyone’s troopers. It’s becoming a real logistical issue.
Fox: I’m literly just nice to them why u gotta be like this
Rex: You make them cry every time you talk to them.
Fox: not my fault u dont now how to be love and affection
Rex: What does that have to do with it?
Fox: lol
Fox: im gonna overthrow the republic with my army of loyal affection starved soldiers
#echo and fives#they share a braincell#Fox read a parenting book and learned about positive reinforcement#thorn tried to tell him to stop making everyone cry#but fox just hugged him and said ur doing great and thorn cried too#fr these guys got no affection from older role models growing up#fox never intentionally weaponised it but several clones told him they’d kill the chancellor for him so…#star wars#commander fox#captain rex#arc trooper fives#arc trooper echo#the clone wars#tcw

I don't know who to send this ask so I'm gonna leave it out here for the public because it just came to me out of the blue: locomotive literature
And I don't mean literature about locomotives, but rather literature written by locomotives
Train biographies detailing their lives on the railway and documenting how things have changed since they were first built
Ghost writers publishing literary works written by trains
Trains with human editors sitting on their buffers as they write down what their engines say and making adjustments for those especially picky or who's words cannot be transcribed because they will be banned otherwise (looking at you Duncan)
Just
Train authors you guys
#ttte#thomas the tank engine#thomas and friends#edward would be the perfect children's author I think#telling stories based on the shenanigans of thomas bill and ben#but also him writing about locomotive hardships and the shady practices surrounding their lives#with published accounts by percy henry and anyone else willing to contribute#Henry writing his experience powering through his time as a train that had several 'health' problems#an icon of perseverance and model for those struggling with their own health problems#thomas being cheeky as usual and publishing a book on all the insults he and his friends used against each other#complete with detailed accounts of how those insults came to be#Gordon and his guide to looking one's best and being as dignified as possible#bill and ben co authoring a practical joke book people#do you all see my vision

Thinking about vampires, death, life, and the space they occupy in between
#to be or not to be. that is the question#ty adam for being my model for dramatic vampire moment#musings on the thinkings about:#when to live you are required to hurt others. you must repeatedly ask yourself what the value of your life is#To sleep... perchance to dream...#ah. THERES THE RUB.#ok I actually couldnt come up with too many thoughts. I had a lot more while I was drawing this but I guess I put them in the painting LOL#reading that soliloquy and being like damn this is just like vampires#the reality of course is that the soliloquy is a debate over suicide and ultimately making the choice to live#even if just out of fear of the unknown#and vampires are about dying and then in undeath choosing to continue to live#despite the fear of eternity and loneliness and hurting others#theyre not the same. but like let me thiiink come onnnn I'm allowed to thiiink and have incomplete thoughts#I would have to write like a proper essay about this to organize my thoughts. this is the tags on a tumblr post.#anyways finished episode 79#working on patreon stickers for this month (and next month soon)#and working on book 4. taking a pause from episodes cause I've got 3 weeks of buffer now... UGH#I'm so mad that they changed it. it would have been 5 weeks before but it's fine it's whatever#anyways yeah taking a break from episodes to make my book now!#its good stuff.#and this painting is good stuff#banger after banger from me tbh#this was a little relaxing giving myself a couple hours to muse#it's necessary for my health and I always forget that til I do a painting...#I loved doing the little landscape in the background too I should do that more! I love how plants are just like whatever shape you want#like you can make up any plant you want and not only does that plant PROBABLY exist somewhere#a weirder plant exists somewhere too. so. literally whatever you want#ok bye again for a few days while I get back to work

i had so much fun making the sweet dreams figure from the book of bill, that i decided to make something else from it -- the BILL CIPHER MATRYOSHKA
i only wound up making five of them, because my medium of choice was model magic, and, well i don't necessarily recommend it for making matryoshka, but, it worked out!!
the original art from the book of bill, done by louie zong --
and there it goes in action!!
and a secret surprise 👀
of course the littlest one has something special inside! oh! it's a coin!!
and what's on the other side?
oh hey, there's another one in there! wait, it's the......same coin??
huh. same coin? same coin.
#gravity falls#the book of bill#book of bill#bill cipher#NOW I CAN REST. .......PROBABLY#the thing about the model magic is that it does not behave strictly like clay so like.......making the shape and then hollowing it out???#it was rough. also the bigger the pieces got the less stable they were while drying which made the fitting a problem at times#BUT! THEY'RE DONE?????? I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE DONE. AND THEY LOOK SO FUCKING SICK

I’ve been watching the original Dragon Ball for the first time with my best friend and while a lot of it hasn’t aged great, I love that old school 80s anime style with all my heart here are some Taylors ft. 1 Hermie I drew while watching!
#dndads#dungeons and daddies#taylor swift dndads#hermie the unworthy#doodly#this was so much fun#caring a little lot less about symmetry or being on model#not that I’m good at that but I do usually try#the one on the left in particular I’m really happy with!#I actually did a Toriyama style Taylor ages ago#right after he passed#never posted it thought because it was such a quick thing#dndads the anime#sort of#this is like#in the concept book for the anime

raising a kid is so hard and raising a kid on your own is even harder and raising a kid who has already gone through some traumatizing shit is even harder and raising a kid when you yourself are also young and traumatized and struggling??? nille did well by any metric but considering the fucking circumstances she deserves every medal in the world.
#HOW DID SHE DO THAT!!!#SHE DOESNT EVEN HAVE GOOD ROLE MODELS!!!#thinking about nille reading parenting books at the library at age 14 with her 4 yr old sibling sitting next to her with a picture book 😭😭😭#isat#thoughts about nille#nille#bonnie

I love your unhinged energy of your comics it's just *chef's kiss"
I wanna ask how you rig your chibi characters if you use a program or an app ಥ‿ಥ
thanks! 💚💜💚
I use Spine (professional version)! I'm pretty sure it's the same program the Twst devs use for the chibis; I decided to try reverse-engineering 'em basically because my license was just sitting around gathering dust, and I thought it'd be fun practice (this was before I tried to rig Meleanor's cape). it is an industry-standard program and, unfortunately, is priced accordingly, so it's a bit expensive if you're not planning on using it professionally -- there is a free trial, though I think you can't save/export anything in it? BUT it is truly excellent and can do a ton of super cool stuff, plus is genuinely just fun to mess around in, so I 10000% recommend it to anyone who is serious about getting into 2D rigging!
behold...the BONES...Najma and her billion discrete tassels...don't pay attention to all the extra bones from my desperate attempts to control Meleanor's meshes
#art#of a sort#meleanor is in this one so here come the spoiler tags#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 part 5 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 part 5 spoilers#gif warning#gifs that will bounce their way into your heart warning#i used to be serious about 2d rigging but alas. not so much the animating.#i like making stuff! not actually using it! GOSH#but i used to make random little spine rigs just for fun#and honestly having an excuse to get back into that through twst chibis has been super fun!#if i want a small army of characters to bounce around then i can make it myself!#THE POWER...#god though i really need to redo che'nya again. he looks so off-model and weird.#you can definitely tell he's the first one i tried to make#do i have the fortitude to take a third attempt at him...#spineposting

The filler episode I need for season 8:
Madney and Henren want double date night so they ask Buck to babysit Jee, Mara and Denny (less Denny and Mara ofc but teen and pre-teen need some supervision). Eddie has something too and brings Chris. We see all of them doing their stuff while Buck absolutely nails having four kids around him. Like babysitter of the year. Chaos of two teens, pre-teen and a toddler is ruled by him. And while Buck has everything under control for surprise date comes Tommy, who sees Evan with four kids but absolutely looking like it's just Thursday (bc it implied Buck was babysitting all of them already just not together) and falls only more in love
#Tommy helps with dinner and with kids#mostly working as a model for Jee brought make up and makes him pig tails too while Denny#Mara and Chris begs him to tell more about helicopters#Also Tommy calls to book helicopter to gonto Vegas bc he wants to get married to start having family with Evan quicker#he wants kids as soon as possible#Tommy when sees Buck in control of four kids: I need to pu... HAVE kids with this man as soon as possible#bucktommy#tevan#kinley#kinkley#denny wilson#mara wilson#jee yun buckley han#christopher diaz#911#evan buck buckley#911 abc#tommy kinard
