#buttload

[forgotn1]

There's 2 Metric Buttloads per Shitton

[informationatlas]

The term "butt" refers to a specified volume, measured in either imperial or US customary units, typically used in reference to alcoholic beverages like wine, ale, or cider. A butt is approximately equivalent to 108 imperial gallons (130 US gallons; 491 liters) for ale or 126 imperial gallons (151 US gallons; 573 liters) for wine, though it's worth noting that the Oxford English Dictionary mentions that these standards were not consistently followed with precision.

Therefore, a “buttload” is an actual unit of measurement.

I got bored and decided to put the heights of the marines (imo the important ones) into a height generator, so I just want to put here what I found for fun :)

- Hibari is the shortest marine out of all of them, Koby being the shortest male (short king and queen 💪)

- Ryokugyu is the tallest admiral, also making him the tallest marine

- Fujitora is the shortest admiral by quite a bit, I thought he would be around the same height as Kuzan at least

□ Probably a coincidence of some sort, but I find it a little funny that the two new admirals are either the tallest or shortest out of them

- Tsuru is the tallest female marine

---

These heights also made me realize how crazy some of them are...is being above 6' or 7' that common in the one piece world???

Like imagine your dad being twice as tall as you do you realize how scary that is

Seriously

"I'm not cooking or anything, this is just a silly idea- (looks down at canvas) ffffuuuu--"

...

so, first I only wanted to draw Professor Layton with a Reiterpallasch from Bloodborne because haha funny hat man with gun-sword, but then i ended up drafting concept art for "Laytonborne", apparently.

"Puzzles all over the shop... You'll be stuck on one of them, sooner or later."

extra artist commentary:

Layton

yes, this really did just start with me wanting to give Layton a Reiterpallasch because he's a canonical fencer and Bloodborne trick weapons absolutely slap. The Reiterpallasch is literally a rapier with a pistol attached that can mechanically switch to prime either the blade first or the gun first so you can stab and shoot someone at the same time.

Giving Hershel the Bloodborne makeover was kind of funny because he wears such a simple look in canon it was hard striking the right balance between his recognisable look and BB aestheic since Bloodborne loves embellishment especially via lots of belts/buckles and those weird shoulder-cape things. I tried to keep it simple enough though because as much as i think he could pull off a hunter ensemble i don't want to have to keep track of all the funky bits. the Top Hat Stays, of course.

Aurora

Aurora is eerily good a fit in a Soulsborne-esque setting considering she fits the criteria for a "Soulsborne maiden" classic archetype sort of character: After all she's a mysterious pale-haired young woman with mystical origins/powers and a foreign-sounding accent and may or may not have some connection to the wider lore and powers that be of the setting. hell even her whole thing being a golem works in a way as even Bloodborne has artificial humans existing as a concept.

i got a little lazy with changing up her dress for both time and lack of inspiration. I thought maybe i'd really do her up but then I chickened out that her costume wouldn't be recognisable any more so just slapped a belt and some patterns on the shawl bit and called it a night :P (if i'd been braver/more motivated she'd probably look good in an approximation of the White Church set, something like that)

and yeah so as the sketches off to the side are like, no real clue how/why it might be triggered but imagine her having the potential to be an optional boss or something (and she'd whoop your ass)

Flora

idk tho Flora also seems like she could be a good contender for the "Soulsborne maiden" position too in a way, or even if not her whole character and story fits into the world quite well. especially with Bloodborne having the Plain Doll who is a sentient doll made in the image of someone her creator loved/was obsessed with and Flora living in a village of human-like robots which started after her father tried to build a replacement for her dead mother.

Her dress is a combination of all her canon costumes across the games. The fur-trim shoulder cape is from one official art of her, the short shawl and white sleeves and bit around her waist is based on her first dress, and the rest of the dress design is based on her second and third game appearance.

The 'Doll Flora' concept there at the end is just some idea of a false/clone Flora running around as well. She's got some little differences including elements of other parts of Flora's designs over the years that aren't on OG Flora, such as the sash and shoes.

Anton

Anton fits in scarily well to the Bloodborne-y setting, perhaps not too surprisingly given the whole 'vampire' thingy. I sort of envision Folsense and Herzen Castle being a bit like the Castle Cainhurst area of Bloodborne which leans more into the classic gothic horror of a remote and looming haunted castle occupied by a sinister enigmatic character.

And yes, that is a reference to the infamous "LAYTOOON" scream from his canon 'boss fight' in the second game - imagine the whole steaming up and screaming thing being like his boss phase transition animation.

The whole 'withers to an old man/husk' concept seems so very Soulsborne-y it really just fits yknow. like if you defeat him he shrivels up/ages to dust or whatever. RIP gassed-up grandpa.

I partly rizzed up his suit using inspiration of the Cainhurst Knight set because like. come on. it's too good to pass up the chance to pretty up with and looks a lot like his canon suit in parts.

Did I trace the foyer background art for Herzen Castle for the mockup just for laffs, only to realise partway that 1) Layton and Anton actually fought in the ballroom, and 2) the ballroom would actually make a much better boss arena setting because it's wide open and the arch from the front room leading into the ballroom could totally be the 'boss fog door' part better than the front room?

...so yeah I then drew the ballroom background without tracing this time like a true madman and had a hell of a time with perspective but the plus side is we also get the sword collection from the game there as a cameo because in Laytonborne the good professor brought his own already.

The Masked Gentleman / Randall

Had a bit of a time deciding how to Bloodborne-ify this guy because his suit in canon is actually really. really boring. it's just a white suit like cmon. so to give it that Bloodborne makeover I fell back on the classic shoulder-cape thing that almost all Bloodborne characters have, added some patterns and accessories based on the Mask of Chaos' patterns and the Decorative Old Hunter's set from the Old Hunters DLC (in the leg brace, forearm guard and the hints of gold chains around the upper arms).

He also gets a Threaded Cane, another trick weapon of Bloodborne fame which is as it suggests: A cane weapon that works a bit like a baton/sword combo but in its alternate form it's a whip covered in serrated metal blades which form the cane itself when locked together.

It seems very appropriate for Randall to be like a boss who starts out as the Masked Gentleman and then at half-or-less health you break his mask, reveal Randall and then wings burst out of his back as he enters his second phase rage mode. This concept part felt more DSouls-y than Bloodborne-y to me i think since Bloodborne is less fantastical and leans more into the body horror/monstrous kind of boss transitions? But at the same time it was too good an opportunity to pass on at least sketching out, plus get you some sick fallen angel imagery out of it.

Also the hanging arm pose miiight be a bit inspired by Artorias of the Abyss. just a bit.

Descole

i recall seeing a post somewhere once with this very low-res rare art of Descole sitting in a throne from somewhere i have no idea what it was for. and I remember it kinda reminded me of Lady Maria's promotional art for the Old Hunters DLC so that's why the last picture of Descole exists.

mf already dresses so extra i legit could think of nothing to add to make him more Bloodborne-y unlike the others. I also used his canon sword's design from the games with a custom sheath because again couldn't really think of anything more to do to make him fit more when he's already got a cool signature weapon to show off.

Good news jeremy nation!

Joel is actually in the new SOS SMP according to Pixlriff's episode 1 video description where he is listed in the member list along with the rest of the Empires crew (minus some people and plus some people). it's mildly surprising to me considering Hermitcraft is still in the highly active early game, and Gem, who balanced both Empires S2 and Hermitcraft fairly well, isn't in it.

however, I will note that in the comments of Pix's video, someone has asked "partially surprised Joel is part of this, didn't really think he'd split time between Hermitcraft and another SMP." To which Pixlriffs has replied, "Don't expect too much from Joel, he's a busy guy and we've said no hard feelings if Hermitcraft is gonna take priority."

I kind of expected that he wouldn't be very active on the new SMP even on the off chance he was in it, but it's nice to have confirmation. Because yeah Hermitcraft is probably going to take priority lol.

I think the new Pet Styles have been really lovely overall so far and I think it’s obvious that a lot of care and time are going into these designs for the most part, which is nice to see! And expected since it seems to be a large part of funding the website’s existence lol. BUT. the size of these things is driving me up the wall

like these side by side comparisons of the old UC Royals vs the new designed Royal Styles makes it really apparent. on one hand they really are gorgeous and the bigger size allows for more detail but my personal need for consistency makes these unusable to me, not to mention the fact that they’re too big to properly fit into some of the backgrounds/foregrounds

the valentines draik style size was especially criminal to me… ESPECIALLY BC HES SO CUTE!!! but it just doesn’t looks nice with a lot of customization items :(

I'll drop some hcs in ur askbox hi

・they end up looking like a heap of entangled limbs whenever they cuddle

・thanos cannot cook for shit, but say If Nam-Gyu is sick, he orders comfort foods from restaurants they like.

・they go to the aquarium high off their asses together

・they r prone to accidental tackle hugs 💔

・they ask to pet every dog they see when they're out

・they're almost always touching in some way. even in small ways like tracing alomg each others skin. esp tracing or kissing each others tattoos, scars, freckles, or other various bodily marks.

・they both love playing with the other's hair.

・nam-gyu has cold hands. there was a point where nam-gyu was complaining about it and thanos offered to let him put his hands on his face cause it was burning up. and they both enjoyed the feeling. so when nam-gyu's hands get cold he places them on thanos's face. when thanos is overheating he takes nam-gyu's hands and places them on his face

AAUHHB jumps up and down in joy [/pos] my stupid babies. how can you be so real w these

I personally hdc book Erik as a castrated dude or with some sort of hormonal issues (Klinefelter syndrome maybe???? I mean it fits…..). So…… I totally agree with your view of Erik with hormonal problems, this dude is unbreedable

I’ve seen quite a lot of people talk about Erik being a castrato actually, so I tend to mull over that a bit because that would obviously mess with his voice meaning he’d be able to sing much higher and would have a higher voice in general.

I can definitely see what you mean by him possibly having Klinefelter Syndrome though. I think he’d probably be a carrier or genetic recipient of Marfan Syndrome, as well as possibly having probably untreated Retinoblastoma, although this would obviously lead to vision problems. I do think he could have Congenital syphilis.

I kind of see my Erik as being intersex, and I very much doubt he’d be fertile. So, yeah.

I need to yell about Arthur disassociating with Uther, his direct involvement in persecution and Morgana. Uther made Arthur his accomplice, having him arrest magic users, lead a Druid raid at 15, hunt magic creatures etc. He had to check out. He had to dehumanize. He always fell back on magic being evil even when he had increasingly mounting evidence it was neutral because if he didn’t then what he’d had done was evil. Then his father was evil. Then he was evil. Morgana was just a witness to executions and witch hunts. She didn’t need to protect herself psychologically or emotionally from the realization that this is evil; he is evil. Eventually it turned into I need to punish him because he is evil; it is my right to punish him because he is evil; it is my right to punish him because he was evil and hurt me; it is my right to punish them and everyone they love because I believe they were evil to me. Just like Uther.

As a former home improvement store employee, I can vouch these are 100% accurate. From my experience, future categories should include pushing a cart of high priced items out the door without paying, only came to the store to take a dump, paying entirely in pennies, and fucking in the display outdoor sheds. Sorry, I know some of your faves are missing but I’ve only played 0 through 4/Dead Souls, I’m sure I could do this again when I get through them all! Template by @meme-templates !
