i'm reading the witness for the dead for the second time and i can SEE the influence on my writing style

#the colour symbolism bro. i am a changed man #i also stole a phrase without realizing. but it's a little bit of a cliche anyway so that's okay #(smile described as 'sudden and dazzling')#also the way pel-thenhior is introduced is SO good. so so so good #simultaneously subtle and blindingly obvious that celehar is attracted to him. i aspire to be able to write like that #i feel like it's premature to say this is my favourite book considering im only reading it for the 2nd time now #and dont usually like to declare something a favourite until ive read it at least twice #but also. it's my favourite book #this is also more like the 2.5th time i'm reading it because after the first time i immediately went back and read large chunks of it again #personal #tin kitchen in the garret #bookposting

HOT, SINGLE, UNSTUDIED SPONGES. 3000 NAUTICAL MILES AWAY. Come sail the distance and read Tiger Tiger!

#tiger tiger #ludovica bonnaire #remy bonnaire #jamis arlesi #This comic has been on my radar for *years* and I only recently - finally - sat down to read it. And by god is it amazing.#I don't want to spoil anything! But if you like amazing art and character writing *and* high seas adventure? READ TIGER TIGER.#If you asked my who my favourite character is I could not tell you. I truly like them all!!!#I even like the sleezeball who has less charm than a dead rat. He's *my* darling little rat man. With every disease.#A special shout out to my lad (he is the lad of all time) Jamis Arlesi.#Who - upon walking into frame makes me go 'Sir! Is your bosom too heavy? Do you need a new bra? My hands are free on Thursdays!'#And Ludo! My lass! I love her dearly! Every page made me more fond of her.#Book smart and uses it in very good ways! Naive enough to think it is all she needs! Learns a lot and stays kind through the horrors!#I could go on and on but...you...the person reading this...you *are* going to read it - aren't you?#So I'd hate to spoil you any more! Go read Tiger Tiger! Do it! For the sea sponges!#Rumour has it they are also freshly divorced. It was messy. Sea sponge needs a distraction. That could be you. Distracting that sponge.#You wont know until you click that link and start reading!

Holiday Classics

Been thinking about Ford watching the 70s Animated Lord of the Rings Movies... (companion comic to this post!)

#the other two VHS tapes Fidd's is holding are Rankin-Bass' The Hobbit (1977) and Return of the King (1980)! The 70s animated pseudo-trilogy!#A lot of people pointed out on my other lotr 'crossover' post that Ford would have seen the 70s movies!#And i wont lie i entirely forgot they existed. But now i remember i have so many feelings on it okay. Ford my silly LOTR nerd #I dont think he would have seen Bashkis in theaters. far as I can tell it was a VERY limited (likely mostly CA) run in the middle of winter #but Rankin-Bass'? Aired on NBC & ABC. He absolutely woulda watched them or rented a VHS later. Which is why he's most excited by Bashki's #He's just such a nerd. I need him to nerd out. But also lowkey angst on how his single focus on bill/the portal lead #him to neglecting even the small things in life. Like knowing a VHS release of an adaptation of his favourite book series had come out #GF fanart #Gravity Falls #gravity falls comic #Fan art #fanart #fiddleford mcgucket #fiddleford hadron mcgucket #young fiddleford mcgucket #*holds two random VHS tapes in one hand to check Fidd's pose in the 2nd panel makes sense* Well thats mathamatically feasible!#young stanford pines #stanford pines #ford pines #Book of Bill #comic #artists on tumblr #my art #Grunkle ford #fiddauthor #cause Fidds is not talking about the movie there. Well okay he's talking about the portal but He COULD BE TALKING ABOUT- *I am dragged off*

I love this book to death, so here's some things I noticed <3

#hyde being short is quite possibly my favourite thing ever #this isnt me jabbing at the takes that stray from the book #just btw XD #i think thats a big reason why i love it so much is that theres a WEALTH of inspiration that can be taken from the jekyll and hyde trope #theres so much out there i love #that being said #ive been buzzing about jekyll n Hyde recently because of this game that blindsided me with a jekyll n hyde trope #its always fun seeing it out in the wild #as seldom as that is LMAO #if anyones curious though its called vampire therapist and its a character named dr drayne #very cute and very fun game 💕💕#jekyll and hyde #the strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde #dr jekyll #mr Hyde #also talking about blindsided by gothic lit blorbos #saw an animated Jekyll and hyde movie at the DOLLARSTORE for 5 smackaroos #easiest 5bucks i ever spent #literally the funniest shiy ive ever seen highly recommend watching it pals #its also on youtube for free and its in that so bad its good category for me

Back at it with my enchanted merthur shenanigans

#when Merlin goes to work #(I am undecided on what he does but I think he does have a job (probably a librarian I’d that’s not TOO cliche…))#he sets Arthur up with a bunch of history books and documentaries to try get him up to date (as much as he can)#and in the evenings they watch all Merlin’s favourite tv shows and movies #I can’t pick what kinds of movies Merlin and Arthur like #I get the feeling they both like pride and prejudice but I’m also biased #I think Arthur would like murder mysteries #ALSO If anyone’s got any fics where Merlin introduces Arthur to modern society please please PLEASE GIVE THEM TO ME #my art #bbc merlin #merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #merthur

Woah what’s this? Cheesus draws a background??

So I wanted to draw Burn and then it occurred to me I could draw a comic of the first book prologue cuz that’s honestly when she’s at her coolest.

I’ve never really drawn comic panels before so sorry if it looks weird.

I’m genuinely surprised I finished it - it took like 20 hrs for some reason.

Click for better quality n such

#anyway I love burn #she’s so slay #I also love drawing my design of her #also if anything looks weird I just tried to do perspective #like if burns body looks massive no it doesn’t #wings of fire #wof #wof burn #rip burn you would’ve hated gay people #wof hvitur #burn wof #wings of fire art #art #dragon #comic #I might do more comic panels of my favourite moments in the books #cheesus wof

A Rose and a Nightingale

#og #this one is inspired by zepyuri nman song. there are many iterations of it but the one by ladaniva is my favourite...#go listen to it #the painting is quite simple but 1. i kinda wanted to keep it that way and 2. i'm a lazy artist...i can't spend more than 3 days on art #i may revisit it later. just really wanted to finish it before the year ends lol #oh some more infodumping! in the second verse there are lines:#i'll become Spring and come to your garden / like a nightingale i'll cling to your rose #i thought 'huh. what an interesting metaphor' and went researching #figures! the motive of a nightingale being in love with a rose is a widespread one in classical iranian literature #at that moment i'd decided to go with iranian-armenian adjacent style of clothing. it's all so pretty #i love the veiling. i love the colors. the patterns. the cut and fit of the costume too.#i was mostly referencing 1 black and white drawing so i couldn't see many details unfortunately #it was from 'armenian national costumes' book by Arakel Patrick #p. 85 table 6 pic. 2 and 3 - rug weavers from charmahal region of isfahan #for anyone's interested in looking it up lol #+ some other references #also if i don't use orange and blue color combo at least once a year i will literally die #ok. infodumping is over #q
