New Show Rec!!!!
If you enjoy watching two men with black cat/golden retriever energy(and not in the order you'd assuume) behave like a bickering, old married couple while simultaneously calling each other 'babe', telling each other they love them all the time, and kicking ass, I've got a show for you. Seriously, you don't even need subtext with these two, they're just blatantly in love with each other and everyone and their mother knows it.
I've fallen down a new rabbit hole. I was looking for a new show to watch and decided to give Hawaii Five-0 a shot finally because I've seen some overlapping appreciation in the Buddie, Destiel, and One Chicago Fandoms. And damn, this did not disappoint. How are more people not completely insane over McDanno??????
Personally, I didn't watch before now because even though I enjoyed MacGyver for a while, I didn't want another overdramatic procedural show filled with outlandish action scenes and bad CGI done by CBS. Cop shows are a dime a dozen now, and nothing about it really stuck out to me. But man, I was wrong.
I was thoroughly impressed by the first season. Between the chemistry between Steve and Danny, the amazing fight scenes that are better than most blockbusters, and their focus on character stories, I was hooked faster than ever.
And while the writing went down hill towards the end just like with most shows(I guess there was a lot going on bts and people were unhappy, I don't know much) and we didn't get the ending we wanted, it's still worth the watch. Besides, this is the perfect recipe for more and better fanfiction to be written in my opinion, when viewers are left unsatisfied.
Anyway, I know the shows a few years old now and the fandom's probably pretty quiet, I'd like to recommend this to any of the Buddie, Destiel, Sevasey, Sterek, etc shippers. There's probably other fandoms and ships similar to these that would enjoy McDanno too, but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. Basically, two guys working together with 'old married couple' energy and an unprecedented number non-platonic interactions. These two are the worst I've ever seen in the best way.
So if I can share this with even just one person, I'll be happy, because this is so amazing to watch after living off of scraps on shows like 911 and Supernatural.
#h50#mcdanno#buddie#Sevasey#sterek#destiel#i know its random#and doesn't relate to your fandom#but i have to spread the joy

a villain’s journey
#scum villain's self saving system#svsss#luo binghe#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#finally read through the official localization.... it sent me right back to where i was when i first got into mxtx in 2019#back then my art was kind of in a transitional period so even though mxtx had me making art like crazy i didnt like much of it#and nowadays my mxtx tl on twt has all but vanished... but once again these books have rejuvenated me creatively#and i feel like ive progressed enough to do justice for how these stories make me feel. and properly scratch that creative itch#anyways. i hardly ever ramble in tags like this but im so emo about these books and i finally feel creative again#so i hope this is able to spread that joy...! sort of. ehe

That viral post that's going around about how people who write "book quality" mlm fic are too "normal" to publish and have real jobs so only "weird" people publish their "shitty" fanfic is so completely out of touch with reality and I am giving a massive side eye to everyone reblogging it.
Not only is it completely, easily verifiably untrue (you cannot enter any professional writing space without tripping over a dozen grizzled scifi writers who got their start by filing off the serial numbers and publishing their Star Trek fanfic even going back decades ago??? it's a whole thing?? plus how can you look at the mlm category on Amazon right now and say with a straight face that people aren't publishing shitty Spirk and Stucky fanfic??? Oh, honey...) it's also the perfect example of this kind of sneering elitism that true artists would never sully themselves by seeking profit, they do it only for the purity of the thing that always somehow leads back to, "no one should be paid to make art, actually."
The only reason you're seeing more published fanfic right now has nothing to do with the idealistic purity of your hypothetical government employee written smut of the past vs the debased scribbles of those awful straights of today and everything to do with the fact that a) self-publishing has created a voracious readership that wants a ton of content so it's become a viable, flexible income stream for many, especially disabled people b) anyone can publish now with self-publishing tools so there are less gatekeepers and c) lockdown got a lot of people into fandom and therefore writing who never tried it before.
And if you really think there's no "shitty" published mlm and no "book-quality" m/f writing out there that started as fanfic, then you are clearly not a reader so why are you even talking about this?
#love how they manipulated people into spreading that post by making it seem like a cishet vs gay thing#when the real message is OP thinks trying to sell your writing is cringe and 'weird' and 'normal people' with jobs would never#which would of course never have flown on the fandom website#so they played into the queer shipping is purer than cishet shipping puriteen thing#and it worked!#because my god people are gullible#this is the direct pipeline that leads to AI thievery#''normal' people write for the joy of it anyway so why do you need pay? you are just greedy and 'weird'!'#'oh no this isn't about who we get to call cringe and who gets to profit from art it's about um...#(quick what's a hated m/f ship?).. oh uh 'shitty' REYLO#and not our super pure uh... (spirk is still popular right? lets throw in that avengers one too to make it seem timely) stucky!'#I'm sorry if I have no sense of humor about this but the year is 2024 and people are still way too ready to sneer#about writers trying to earn a fucking living in the shittiest timeline#and i need you to look deep into yourself and ask you why it's so important to you to tell yourself that only people writing what you like#are 'normal' with real jobs and to vilify everyone else as 'weird' and 'shitty'#for trying to make an income during a financial fucking crisis#i would say sorry for ranting about this but I'm not sorry because wtf#write whatever you want#publish whatever you want#there is no moral fucking purity in what the content is#and one thing certainly doesn't make you more 'weird' or 'normal' than the other#like there is soooo much shitty mlm that started as fanfic???#that post is 100% OP made up some guys to get mad about and called them relyos for the clicks#writing#publishing#writblr#writeblr#i wasn't going to tag this anything but you know what fuck it I'm mad#i had like 5 more tags but tumblr cut me off which is fair 😅#fan fiction

I love your post truce au Dream being a little shit/pos to Nightmare, Nightmare got to be the Evil brother for 500 years, it is now Dream's turn
Thank you!! I'm glad you like it ^^
And yes exactly!! Nightmare's been hogging the little shit status, Dream is kicking in the door to his castle like ''mom said it's my turn to be the bane of your existence'' and he's gonna have so much fun
#Ask#Anon#UTDR#UTMV#Truce au#Dream hasn't tried to annoy his brother since they were kids but he's a natural#Nightmare may have changed a lot but Dream can still find his buttons and push them pretty quick#Especially now that he knows half the mutiverse. He can spread so many rumours >:3c#Nightmare will figure out how to retaliate eventually (he's way more out of practice on sibling annoyance)#I just wanna see these boys squabble and fight with lower stakes than the entire universe#Also thank you!! I really genuinely am glad people find joy in my goofy ideas <3#And now I need to get dressed and go to work (rip)

fire lord Zuko opening windows and doors and tearing down walls so that the palace is no longer only lit by the oppressive flames controlled by the former fire lord but by the warmth and life of the sun
#avatar the last airbender#zuko#i think about this so mych#every shot from the palace is so dark and oppressive#bc its literally trapping everyone but like. what about if it wasnt like that#if there was freedom and life flowing in the halls again#atla#fire lord zuko#i like to think that it also helps not have to hide joy. closed doors and walls kept him and his mother safe yeah? but now it can be spread

rough art tips to learn and then break at your leisure.
the distance between your eyes is roughly one eye. the corners of your mouth dont extend past the middle of each eye. ears are roughly in the middle of the tip of the nose and the eyebrow. the eyes are in the very centre of the head. the neck is just a Little slimmer than the width of the head (varies with fat distribution, but fat tends to build up under the chin). hair is easier to draw when you plot out the hairline and then where it parts. leaving appropriate distance on the side of the face (cheekbone area and back to ear) contributes to making characters look more realistic/hot as hell. i dont know specific tips for that so use reference. an amazing reference/study site is lineofaction.com . if you think of the face in planes it makes it easier to construct (look up tutorials). if you draw a spiral like a tornado it can help you figure out awkward perspective for extended limbs (look up foreshortening coil technique). tangent lines are when two lines intersect and cause visual confusion (when it looks like a line that defines an arm is part of the line that defines a building, for example) and avoiding them makes your art way easier to comprehend. quick trick to good composition: choose a focal point (where you want your viewer to focus), detail that area the most, and make sure various elements of the piece are pointing to that focal point. you can use colours to contrast hue, saturation, and brightness and make certain elements of your drawing stand out. drawing in greyscale can help you figure out values. using black in a piece isn't illegal but you should know what you're doing when you do use it- it desaturates a piece and if used as a shading colour can desaturate and dull whatever youre shading too. if you use almost-black lineart and then add black to darken the very darkest areas it will do a lot to add some nice depth. the tip of your thumb ends just above the start of your index finger- your thumb also has two knuckles and all your other fingers have three. if you see an artist doing something you like (the way they draw noses or eyes or hair or anything else) you can try to copy that and see if you want to incorporate it in your style <- this is ENCOURAGED and how a lot of us learned and developed our styles. there are ways to add wrinkles to faces and bodies without making the character look a million years old, you just have to keep experimenting with it. The smile wrinkles around your muzzle dont connect to your mouth or to your nose; there should be a small space in between smile or nose and the wrinkle line. eyes when viewed in profile are like < aka a little triangle shape. think of the pupil like a disk and apply foreshortening to it (it looks like a line when seen from the side instead of a full round dot). subtle gradients can add a LOT to a piece. texture can also add a LOT. look up Tommy Arnold's work (his murderbot pieces are some of my FAVOURITE) and zoom in. find those random little circles he added and try to figure out why he added them there. light bounces. there's lots of way light bounces. sometimes it even spreads through the skin. i do not know these light tricks yet but i want you to know that they exist. draw a circle to indicate hand placement, draw a straight line between that circle and the shoulder, and then (normally at a right angle) draw a straight line on top of that line to find the placement of the elbow. elbows are normally placed Just above the hip when standing and your arm is at rest. there are no bad colour combos if you're brave enough about it, just fuck with the saturation and brightness until it works. keep playing. try new things. add your own tips to this post if you want or even expand on some ive mentioned here. good luck go ham etc
#look at this post#the sum of almost all of my art knowledge#all that i can remember rn anyway lmaooo#shit i didn't mention the tips for backgrounds that i know#eh that's environment most of this deals with character work anyway#i learned most of this from tutorials and kind artists who like to talk about their work#i would not know NEARLY as much about creative shit as i do if it weren't for the people who were willing to talk about their skills#and their tricks and their observations. id be nothing without them i dont remember most of them but i am so so grateful for that kindness#so ig here ill spread that a little further#if you have any questions go ahead and ask i am a NERD about art okay i do not know everything but i am always willing to talk about what i#do know#art tips#one of the most important things for you to do as an experienced or beginner artist tho#is to PLAY#experiment#figure out what's fun and what looks nice and what looks nice faster and just. whatever the fuck you want to learn#it is SUCH a joy

Cellbit adding Fit and ramon only to IMMEDIATELY kill them off
And the Dr. Cockruko or whatever his name was. So based. So funny.
I love fit so much so seeing him here (but not really) was SOOO FUNNY but so nice too. Baghera saying 'does he work for the federation?'. Carol straight up calling him a useless janitor who's always snooping around and being sus. The little qsmp references sprinkled in has my HEART. It's lovely to see, because realistically without quackity and the qsmp, we would not have had opq. Ordem Paranormal would still be strong as ever, but people outside of Brazil would have likely never seen it, and it is such a shame because it is an absolute work of ART and cellbit DESERVES all that recognition. It never ceases to amaze me the possibilities the qsmp, and the ccs and admins of the server, has created. They have spread so much joy, connected people from ALL OVER THE WORLD, and that is not something many people can say. It's beautiful. It's heartwarming. It's hard to put into words how amazing it all is. Just some thoughts, I'm emotional today ;)
#ordem paranormal quarentena#opq#fitmc#qsmp#we love quackity and everyone involved for all they joy they have spread all over the world#i cannot express how amazing and beautiful what they have created is#cellbit too hes amazing#and everyone really#everyone even a tiny bit involved#even you guys#the viewers#us :D#im just so AAHHHHHHHHHHH if you get me

update
sent around 70 orders since my previous update! still slowly chipping away the rest, theres so much left
also. i already kinda talked about this on twitter in detail but:
.
.
to the customer who first told me they didnt know my book was a preorder, and didnt know i wrote an estimated shipping date on my faq, and if they knew earlier they wouldnt have bought it because it was for their niece's birthday which has now passed:
you wrote back again recently asking for updates when i previously mentioned it would take the same 2-3 weeks. i cant even send you your order beforehand because i didnt even have the books. but when i finally did i sent out your copy the next day instantly. i dont understand why you filed a paypal claim (under "item not received") against me on the same day i shipped out your order. and you even lied about me on the dispute notes which i can obviously read on my end. you asked for shipping info in which i cant even really send anything because you actively chose not to have your package tracked, and you are never satisfied with any answer i had my friends give you :(
i implore you to just reach out to me personally here but you dont even reply to emails anymore. if you feel vindicated bullying a small artist trying to share their works to people then you've did it because i give up.
im sorry i dont know what you want from me.
#im having such a rough time irl lately where i couldnt eat or sleep properly. i've attempted on overdose. i lost a family member#but i still wanted to fulfill the shop responsibility because everyone's counting on me#genuinely i know there will be nice people outweighing the bad ones but i dont feel like doing this anymore#and if i were to sell my art again it would just be between friends#faq#edit: truth be told i never even really wanted to sell my book because i made it as a commemorative item for my late friend#but a lot of people wanted it and asked for it so i thought okay i will do this for the people who asked#because if im in a position to spread a little joy in the world in the form of my art i wanna do it#but then people/experiences like this happens and i feel like i disappointed my friend

I have been meaning to draw fanart for @/somerandomdudelmao's au for a long time, and finally sat down the other day and got this done!
The lyrics are from the song Found in Steven Universe: The Movie. It came on while I was doing concept sketches and it was all over but the crying and the sad songs /pos
Edit because I forgot to say this and meant to: drawing Donnie sick vs fresh out of the mutant juice really makes that arc hit even harder, major kudos to the author
#rottmnt fanart#rottmnt#donnie rottmnt#casey jr rottmnt#cass apocalyptic series#i love this comic so much you don't understand yall#it legit inspired me to pick up my stukus and start doing digital again after almost two years of not doing digital#so thank you Cas#you have and are spreading joy and inspiration with the things you create

im speaking as someone who loves being a hater but if you exist in fandom solely to hate on other people and how they choose to experience the fandom.... what are you even doing?
#I fully cannot imagine being that miserable all the time#and again#I LOVE being a hater#hating things brings me joy#but I also enjoy participating in fandom in a non hater way#also when im a hater its never that serious#like yeah I loathe the ship that shall not be named#but I do try my hardest to criticize just the ship and not the innocent people that are shipping it#now if you're not innocent that's another thing and we have beef#but it's not SERIOUS beef#I hope someone is picking up what im putting down here#anyway please spread joy and not hate
