I might be reaching my end phase of ikerev early 😮‍💨 it’s just not keeping my attention

I kinda wish there was an “In a Nutshell” post where I can just learn the important things I’m missing on the routes I haven’t finished. Like Lance especially.

I may come back after a break but… woof.

Fixing history using the power of editing and my editing skills!!

For today we have, New Titans (1980) Issue #100

✨ Wedding Special ✨

@robstarblog @robstaryeah pinging yall just in case so that this doesn't get lost in oblivion (It'd be painful since I worked 5 hours non stop on it lol)

I think the most time was taken by the final panel and adding in the finishing touches since I pretty much had to change everything to the pixel level, quite literally lol (I'm serious, I did)

Welp I hope the results were worth it! And with that, another one gets a good ending!!

I kinda didn't add sleeves in the first two panels of the final page because it didn't look good and looked janky with how I was editing it so yeah please ignore that-

sometimes I suspect I am being pranked and that I somehow only have access to a version of DS9 that gradually increases the size of Kira Nerys's eyes over time. I always think, 'no, I must be imagining things. it is not possible that her eyes are That large and dewy and doe-like.' and then she appears on screen. and points a disruptor at your chest. while looking at you with the largest and dewiest and most doe-like eyes you've ever seen in your life.

this is what i see when i look at her. if u even care.

<- omnicrafter

These are likely (but very not confirmed) predictions of Mastercraft gear requirements based on the consistent patterns of prior expansions. (If blurry, click for HQ)

Some potentially useful notes for non-omnicrafters:

Any Expansion:

Tier XI and XII DoH and DoL materia will likely spike heavily in sale price in the period of time after each of the two new DoH/DoL gear recipe sets drop

Likewise, Savage Aim (especially), Savage Might, and Heaven's Eye materia in XI and XII will likely jump in price after each new combat gear recipeset drop

The clusters for the combat materia can be acquired from doing leveling or alliance roulette as a 90+ job In Need and can be traded to any Rowena Rep

Have completed Dawntrail:

Figure out what new crafting scrip materials are added (there will likely be two) and which is more useful in the newest gear. Spend any custom delivery scrip on these. In prior expansions these have been very annoyingly expensive with a SLOW price drop. (Should be purchasable once 2nd hub city is reached.)

The above comments about combat materia profit still applies, but finishing Dawntrail (+ all flight) allows powergrinding of clusters from hunt trains

It won't be for a while, but a new aethersand will likely drop when the final DoH/DoL does. Check the sources for this. In EnW, one source was spearfishing desynthesis and it was really easy with mediocre gear. Your fisher would have to be a high enough level to use the node, but the stat requirements won't be as harsh as BTN/MIN.

If you have excess tomestones and don't actively need them for a gear upgrade, tomestone mats (particularly the new ones that will likely be added for the 2nd and 3rd combat sets) can sell for a lot. Unfortunately I have no idea WHICH tomestones these will end up costing at those points.

If you are a normal crafter and able to clear lv98 HQ crafts, the basic materials (black star, levinsilk, gargantuaskin, ra'kaznar, claro walnut) will continue to be used in all mastercrafts for 7.x, and it would be a good idea to at least check the price during new drops

more oc doodles... tested a braid for him!! also made the butterfly motif more obvious w the butterfly clips... i rly wanted him to have them but rarely drew him from the back so...

this post is kinda short so gonna post some old art w commentary under the cut bc i dont think i posted them here before🤧 thought i did but....

(oct 2020) happy to see visible improvement from then heh... this is where i first got him closer to his current design/palette + decided on the purple/yellow palette and the inverting eye color idea... normally pretty and shiny but w a creepy spotted butterfly eye look when using his powers (simplified the dots to just 3 in his current design)...

more recent doodles (apr 2022)... these r cute tbh i like the 2nd pic, he looks so fluffy + u can see the butterfly hairtie... but i still wasnt satisfied w his design...

in my most recent attempt at designing him(aug 2023) i changed several things... made his bangs longer for a more elegant look(which is actually closer to how it was before)... figured out how to draw his eyes + eyebrows better + more consistent(had been going back n forth btwn double/mono eyelids and thick/thin eyebrows... finally settled on sleepy double eyelids + thick brows) + i also changed the placement of his moles... (used to be right under his eye; changed to middle of cheek + another near the nose.. aka the txt soobin mole KFJKS I like how this new placement gives him a softer and gentle elegant look?? it's subtle but I like it a lot better... Oh also I made his sideburn locks shorter instead of long and curly and I like this change a lot too... idk it looks cuter to me KJFKS I gave him the long curly ones before bc i thought it'd look more unique but... i decided it's more important that I personally like it rather than just give traits to set him apart... he already looks plenty flashy w his eyes and colors anyway🤧

bonus: another pass from p recently (may 2023) where, unsatisfied and wondering how to fix his design, attempted straying further from prev attempts by testing a middle part (and also a mole near his mouth)... but I was actually getting colder and not warmer.... I don't like these but at least I tested it to know that I don't like it!! u can also see a test doodle of the spiky green guy (hyojun) here lol

And finally, here's 1 of his very first design attempts from way back in aug 2019!!! (u can see early hyojun too...)

This was back when I was just starting to figure the current ver of his chara/personality/role in the story... not fleshed out at all but i at least had a vague idea and this was when I decided he would be purple (instead of other palette ideas i had considered earlier like brown hair, orange coding...) But at this early stage I hadnt come up with the butterfly motif, or the purple/yellow palette (he was purple/magenta here) or darker skin... Tbh I consider this a "beta design" bc theres sm thing that were diff/not decided yet but it's technically the same chara ckdbf

I can't fit any more images ㅠㅠ but u can see more concept sketches in this twitter thread... and yea I was testing an inverted eye concept even back then... I really liked this idea so I didn't want to abandon it, and im happy I made it even better since w the butterfly concept *_*

read a post on reddit on religion and i am still fascinated that i didn’t know the word atheist until i was like 13.

i’ve been an atheist my entire life somehow despite being forced to attend protestant christian class in elementary school (constitutional seperation of state and church everybody - welcome to fucking germany) where we prayed and everything but i just thought this was an advanced roleplaying class.

for over half of my life i didn’t realise that people actually believed in gods and religions and stuff. i thought being an atheist was the default. gods didn’t make sense to me. they still don’t for the record.

well up until my german teacher for some reason asked everyone what religion they belonged to and then i got called out because i didn’t raise my hand for anything so he asked me directly and i just went “yea i don’t believe in gods” “then you should have raised your hand at atheist” “what’s that” “someone who doesn’t believe in gods” “oh”

religion was never a topic in our household growing up

ok so like. between Sentido and In the Next Life, the kudos discrepancy is obvious (it being a tristamp vs trimax fic)

but honestly, the engagement with In the Next Life is honestly rly encouraging. a 10.8% comments to kudos percentage for Sentido vs 30.8% for ITNL

it was a lil discouraging at first how few kudos it got bc i just got off the high of super fast growing Sentido. but like, when you think about it it makes a lot of sense. the general tristamp fic with a simple setup & effective character exploration using a structure i havent seen otherwise.

vs heavy heavy HEAVY trimax spoilers fic. like this fic is made For Me to cope with reading trimax. but for ppl who dont read as fast as me or havent started it after watching tristamp. if they care about spoilers, this is not what theyre gonna be reading

so it makes sense! and im no longer disappointed, especially considering how sweet all my commenters have been.

im just gonna keep goin at it. im writing this for Me, and either it'll get more attention or it wont. it's enough for the people who are here now to continue this journey with me.
