rescued this baby from the curb today 🥰😊 yet another restoration project!

here she was before i cleaned up the lacquer. it rained last night and seeped into the old lacquer. i'll see if there's anything more i can do to restore that damage, but i think some of it is straight-up the paint running off and exposing the metal
#🫀#from basic research i think shes 1900s-1910s#not quite in working order-- someone added a motor at some point and got rid of the treadle ): and shes missing a belt anyway#havent cracked her open to look yet either#but by rotating things by hand#the needle and bobbin and feed dogs all seem to move correctly!#got a little bit of damage from the rain but i fixed it up as well as i could. will see what more i can do#im going to see abt buying a kit to convert it to hand crank soon#then in a few years when i have more space maybe ill get a treadle table to install her on#i really do have a kind of task i enjoy huh#come home from an 8+ hour shift at the doing-fiddly-detailed-mechanical-work factory#to do more fiddly detailed mechanical work#ah well. the rot consumes us all

(content warning: blood)
Sewed Up Heart
[ID: A Trigun comic done in grayscale with red accents. First, an anatomical heart gushes blood, forming a puddle which shifts into Vash's coat. Vash's gloved hands can be seen sewing up a tear at the hem.
Vash raises his hands, which are now bare and covered in blood. He looks sweaty and distressed, and he raises his coat to his face and cries into it. His clenched hands rip the sewed portion apart, and the red thread leads to a heart whose own stitches are tearing apart. The background gets darker and darker, and the red looks brighter and starker against it.
Then the background returns to white, and brown-skinned hands using embroidery scissors snip a red thread. Wolfwood holds up Vash's repaired coat, grinning proudly, and does a happy thumbs-up in Vash's direction. Vash lifts his head, seeming distant.
Wolfwood holds out the coat. As Vash puts out his hand to take it, the cloth is replaced so Wolfwood is dropping a sewed-up heart in Vash's hand. Vash rubs the coat against his face with a teary smile. End ID] ID CREDITS
#trigun#trimax#cw blood#vash the stampede#nicholas d. wolfwood#vashwood#my art#his coat as an external representation of his emotional wounds🤌#a coat riddled with bullet holes tells so many stories#also wolfwood hc of him being good at sewing bc he probably had to patch up many clothes when he was at the orphanage#and now his hands are bloodied but he still has this one thing -this one skill- that helps him make things a little better for once#and it doesnt fix everything but at least he's giving back a bit of the kindness he's being shown#ww actions over words love language *explodes*#i cant stop rotating these thoughts in my head i need to make a comic focused on his pov#image described#thank you for the id!!#raepliica_art

LALECHINGO!! ; a birthday event
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ it’s bingo! and also a raffle.
let’s party!! one thing about me is that is love a little event and since it’s my birthday month i felt like hosting one :3c
so: raffle time! but you gotta play some bingo first before you can participate. lemme give you a rundown on how it works.
what's the prize?
✰ a total of three 1k (or longer) fics from me! i don’t take requests so this is a rare chance to see something specific written by me ✰ the 3 winners will receive a wishlist form from me in which they can go wild ✰ haikyuu x reader only! gender of reader is for the winners to decide, i’ll write for all of them. ✰ not limited to sfw only (that being said: mdni)
details & rules (it looks like a lot, but i promise it's easy)
✰ to participate in the raffle, you gotta fill out the bingo cards! there’s ten of them in total at the end of this post. some are writing prompts, some are for reading, some to spread some kindness. you can grab and combine any that catch your interest.
✰ 1 bingo equals 1 point. if you manage to fill out an entire card, you’ll get 10 points, so 10x your name in the draw pot for the raffle. this means you can get up to 100 points in total if you fill out all ten cards completely.
✰ it’s not first come, first serve! you got two weeks to have fun with your bingo cards.
✰ this event is mostly about making fandom a little better for everyone, whether you’re a writer or a reader, no matter how you participate in it. this means you don’t have to show me proofs how you got these bingos. putting my trust in you that you won’t cheat <3
✰ since the prizes are gonna be fics by me, i would feel better knowing you actually like my works enough to follow me. however, it’s not a must to be a follower to participate. again, it’s more about fandom than me.
✰ writers picking up the writing prompts: it up to you how you use them! can be drabbles or headcanons, small fics, big fics, moodboards, not limited to haikyuu only. really whatever sparks your inspiration. you don’t even have to publish it or tag me in it (though i’d love to see ofc hehe), this is for YOU and your inspiration.
✰ do NOT bring any ai into this. i'll rip you to shreds
✰ once you’re finished, either reblog this post with your bingo cards or send me an ask with them (i won’t publish them, just for me to keep track)
✰ i’ll draw & announce the three winners on Jan 27th and will contact them through dms for their wishlist :3
card 1-6 ; for the writers
card 7 & 8 ; for the readers
card 9 & 10 ; for the kindness
that's all! have fun ♡ - Lale
#hq x reader#haikyuu x reader#-`♡´- lalechingo#← filter this one if you don't wanna see any of it on your dash. no hard feelings <3#ps: your girl's an aquarius so no early bday wishes please lmao#also i'll ramble in the tags so bear with me. this is actually my dream event so there's that#i've rotated this one in the back of my mind for a long time and i'm feeling a little shy releasing it into the wild now#but i'm being very brave about it!! (me when i lie)#you see. one thing about me is that i love giving people a little homework. but also to make it a little silly bc what else is there to do#trying to make fandom the place i want it to be. by no means i believe i can do that on my own but i can try by doing my part right?#also big kiss to ellie who came up with the name for this and is a constant source of reassurance and joy ily <33#same for the peeps in the server who let me ramble about this idea and hyped me tf up for it!#this idea also saw the light because of you all. ily all thanks for being these amazing souls that you are <3#told myself i wouldn't get sappy in the tags but oh well. hi hello gang can you hold my hand while i cry pls#anyway. let's play some fucking bingo my guys!!

text from justice league/hitman (issue 1) by garth ennis
#wild thing to pull lines from but---#Ardbert#fanart#speedpaint#i draw sometimes#Final Fantasy XIV#i just love rotating him from the angle of like. you've had your moment of catharsis. but you have to keep going so now what?#and i've said it elsewhere but i think as much as he may have made peace with being a 'hero' he'd still be reluctant to be seen in that way#even if he ends up in the spotlight sometimes during enw#(it's also fun because wol ends up in a similar place emotionally at the end of 6.0. so they can figure it out hand-in-hand <3)#anyway. as usual stuff from the collage kits i got and using public domain aggregator searches + brushies i already had on hand :3#faking a more traditional mixed media art journal look was also rly fun

A broken conduit for crimson instincts. An undercurrent, an idea that refuses to die, the desire to shatter yourself if it means the pieces will cut your enemies. A curse.
#fallen london tag#i am rotating the bloody-handed queen and the way she operates in my mind like some prize... bug. she is a bug-#anyway tess has crimson handed now it's only a matter of time uwu#people enjoying my garish 2010 freeware photo editor edits post got me to fire the thing up again#does it handle layers. no. can it add all kinds of bullshit effects without paywall. yes.

breaking the law and outing myself on the internet because i'm showcasing my senior dance thesis on april 28 at 6:30 and 8:30 pm Eastern Standard Time and i want You to see it
we don't have a livestream link yet but we will. in the meantime look at these cool posters and this cool blurb. ok now save the date SEE YOU SOON
#my stuff#my art#these posters went through 14 separate drafts. it was a harrowing and difficult experience#i am Fully Going through it which means 1) physical health is suffering 2) social life also but 3) the thing is going to be so fucking good#sarus is gonna be the best thing ive ever made when we finish it. i Know it#so i want you to see it because it's one of those ambitious stories where everything's bigger than life#and the world is old and young and scary and kind and people live fearlessly and with cowardice#BUT EVERYTHING WILL BE OK. IF YOU JUST KEEP WALKING. this is going to be one of those stories#so many dance blurbs and descriptions are like stupid technical like oh we explored the effect of weighing down our hands and feet#on our Center of Gravity and how it altered the rotational momentum of turns and jumps#or else they're stupid esoteric like oh the wind blew..... and the children wept and all over the world the oceans rose... (global warming)#so i was determined to make this blurb (which is going in the schoolwide email blast) accessible and provocative#and inviting#in a provocative way#im very Locked in rn. im Hyperfocused as fuck. i am not eating as well asi should be but IM TRYING#AND THATS WHAT MATTERS#im inviting all of u bc this is a piece that is going to try and say something and i want everyone ive ever loved to hear it#oghey bye

i have this really stupid idea in my head that im frankly a little obsessed with and the idea is this: trent crimm doing a drunk history episode on ted lasso's first tenure at richmond. is that how drunk history works? i don't think so. do i care? absolutely not. it's a special episode who cares because this image is not only hysterical to me but treasured. i treasure this image. i hold it close in my heart and also laugh and laugh and laugh.
#ted is played by what is very visibly a butch lesbian in a huge fake mustache.#roy is inexplicably played by himself in a wig.#ternt drunkenly and passionately explaining this whole thing. he says his own line and the trent actor (who also has a wig) gets to act it#trent waving his hands as he's explaining all this. the host being like 'not very often we get to have someone include the part where They#come into the story' and trents like [dorkiest finger guns]#also yes i said first tenure bc this scenario lives in post canon fantasy fix it land where ambiguously ted comes back to richmond#at some point. and also both bc my tedependent heart is obsessed and bc it's really funny#marries trent. just bc i want this to end with trent--hammered and pleased as punch--being like AND THEN I MARRIED HIM!!!!!#[falls back on couch happily] :)#also in the line of that great 5+1 social media fic#by jessjessthebest. a sequel thats just like a youtube video like#'we made ted lasso and trent crimm watch that episode of drunk history about them' and trent is just. head in hands the whole time.#ted is DELIGHTED.#anyway i rotate this in my brain fucking DAILY. it's so goddamn funny to me.#ted lasso#tedependent#tedtrent#trent crimm#the line in question being 'is this a fucking joke' i just realized i did not clarify that#no but really im obsessed with this it's so fucking funny#also any image trent had left of being a ruthless ex journalist is thoroughly ruined#all of his former colleagues have seen him and drunk and giggling and fully admitting what he was thinking at the time and oh boy#hes a disaster <3#gertspeak

Made an emote for my tea sipping needs 🍵
Inspired by this emote ^
#animation#art#gif#you can use this. If you want?? It's my goofy ahh furry thing but lmfao who cares#I was gonna add the hair physics and stuff. However#I did this animation extremely incorrectly for literally no reason#What you're supposed to do is use literally any interpolation software#What I decided to do is manually rotate and transform every single element... by hand.#There was no reason for me to do this.#You can see a few things jitter slightly because I started to get tired lmfaoooo#Also don't mind that the cup is godawful I accidentally animated the draft 😭😭😭#I realized that redrawing everything would be stupid and had to just continue with the initial sketch#ALAS.#AAAAHHH#Also pardon for not sourcing the insp image my phone crashes when I try to reverse image search it#emote

So if...in theory...I branched out from this just being a DA blog and moved into ALSO talking about other stuff I like (still mostly media I'm a fan of lbr) would that end of a ten year era of only dragon age posting throw off this whole blog or do y'all *want* other content from this blog?
Just been thinking of merging at least my Mass Effect blog with this one, possibly some of my other blogs as well. I'd be keeping my url no matter what though I haven't changed it once in ten years I'm not starting now lol
Everything would of course continue to be properly tagged so that you can block things you don't care about and I might do some blog cleanup first but I've been...considering
#i am also in ESO mode rn but relearning this game after like a year is actually so difficult#and where is my Fennorian houseguest????? WHERE.#anyway i'd probably just be making this a gaming blog and keeping my personal blog for all the other things#maybe also merging my art blog i haven't touched in 84 years as well#and talking about ocs more??#idk i don't want to run people off but i think my only DA era is over much as I do still love DA and will post about it!!!#however on the other hand....i want to get into writing again and Wren Lavellan is rotating in my brain#with an ambitious da:i and da:v fic idea brewing#jules speaks#personal#delete later#text post

ohgh. nameless bard thoughts
#paces around the room while gesturing wildly. he is so fundamentally an icarus you have to understand#burns bright as much as he dissolves#okay but anyways . idk why im thinking so much of his agility#i like to think he’s nimble in the sense of he can maneuver around alleyways and the tops of buildings like theyre the back of his hand#light on his feet with a knack for difficult to reach spots#though i do wonder .#how that translates into fighting — esp with the discarded weapons#considering he might’ve used a CLAYMORE of all things#i say this all like i don’t rotate nb fighting styles around constantly#fast hitting tank perhaps …….#lantern says stuff
