Making the Walls Glow with Textured Paints
Textured paint has become a new cool in the painting and renovation industry. It is an easy, quick and affordable way to add a new look to a space. Often used as a substitute to wallpaper, it is also a prodigious solution to cover up uneven walls. Textured painting is one of the most popular trends in home décor, and with the increase in DIY cases, many diverse styles are created with a variety of colors to choose from. The most difficult part of the project is determining which ones to put to use for best results.

What are the Different Options for Textured Paints?
Textured paint comes with different options. The premix has small, gravel like particles and is coarse in appearance. It is applied to ceilings where close scrutiny is not always probable.
Another variety, coming in a bucket and is smooth and thick requiring special application tools such as putty knives or trowels. Once applied, this paint looks like stucco. Most stores sell an agent that can be acquired separately. This material can be applied to control the roughness or smoothness.
Superior paint is the need of the hour, when you want a beautiful and striking textured look.  A choice can be made between flat-finish latex and formulations with alkyd, or a sturdy synthetic resin. Latex versions are used on ceilings and don’t need a primer. Characteristically, they are durable to cover up the seams amid drywall.
What is Trending as Far as Textured Paints are Concerned?
The most popular trends in paint industry when it comes to the creation of textured finish contains metallic finishes in gold, copper, and silver. This option will allow to create a shiny, glossy look.
Textured paint can likewise be put to use for creating a faux finish. Common faux finishes comprise stone, marble, or wood, which can add texture and depth. Often this method needs tools, like sponges, special rollers, rags, trowels, and putty knives.
Visiting a paint store can become irresistible, as there are many different textures of paints to choose from.  One can always check out diverse shades before making the final decision on the subject, what sort of look is wanted since removing the texture can be a little bit tough as compared to painting of a flat paint.
Touring the model houses can always be a good choice on the part of a person, who want to be very sure regarding the choice of the textured paint. Home improvement stores have different cards showing the diverse finishes.

A work in progress... I finally got around to updating Phoenix's visual design. The 2011 version I included is pretty dated. I still like how its tail burns my eyes to dust if I look at it for more than 5 seconds though. I want to keep that but also expand her eyeburning repertoire and maybe even give her 1 more human form design since she IS supposed to have a ton. I would include native form variants like... piebald and stuff; even for Griffin I thought a melanistic or golden form would be cute, but man is it a lot of work and not top priority either. Suffice it to say, they have more range than what I depict. We'll see how much energy I'll have - I'm on the fence about drawing her fave human form for the sheet because I have recent examples of it. I've been putting off updating her self-roasting turkey form because... well look at it Anyway, now I can say "I have a tentacle cock monster mural on my acid trip chicken's ref sheet"

unplugging the mystery
for the @steddiemicrofic prompt “plug, 437 words” | rated: t | cw: none | tags: established relationship, pov steve, eddie munson is a menace
***
“Stevie! The TV isn’t working!”
Steve hears Eddie from the kitchen despite the ABBA record playing as he decorates Robin’s birthday cake.
He puts the piping bag down with a sigh, and wiping his hands on his apron, joins him.
He narrows his eyes at his boyfriend, sprawled on the couch and aggressively pressing every button on the remote with no luck. The screen remains black. “What did you do?”
“I resent that accusation, Harrington.”
“Well, I watched the basketball game earlier and it was working just fine,” Steve argues, hands on his hips.
Eddie claps and points at him. “That’s it! Your sports game broke it.”
“Really?”
“Whatever. Help, Stevie, please,” Eddie pouts, puppy eyes out in full.
Steve unties the apron and tosses it at Eddie’s face. “Fine.”
“Thanks, baby.”
He walks over to the TV, trying the buttons and dials but the screen stays black. With a sigh, he gets on his hands and knees to check if it’s plugged in properly.
Behind him, Eddie wolf-whistles and Steve flips him off over his shoulder.
Sticking his head behind the TV stand, he finds the problem. “The fuck?”
“What did ya find?”
“It’s unplugged.”
“Weeeeird.”
Steve agrees. He doesn’t know how it happened. Arching his back uncomfortably, he plugs it back into the electrical outlet and hears Eddie curse under his breath.
“Still doesn’t work?”
“What? Oh yeah, it works. Good job, big boy,” Eddie says distractedly.
Glancing over his shoulder, Steve finds him staring intently at his ass, paying no attention to the TV despite how insistent he was about Steve fixing it.
“Eddie?”
“Hm?” He doesn’t take his eyes off Steve’s ass even when he stands up and faces him, like he’s trying to bore a hole through him so he can keep staring.
“Did you unplug the TV so you could stare at my ass?”
Eddie’s eyes meet his, he smiles sheepishly.
Heat builds rapidly in Steve’s cheeks. “Eddie!”
“Sorry, sweetheart, I needed an excuse to check you out in those shorts,” Eddie says unashamedly. He leers at him. “And damn, it was worth it.”
“Jesus,” Steve mutters. “Next time just ask, dude.”
“Ask what, baby? To bend over for me?”
Steve shrugs. “Well, yeah.”
Eyes sparkling, Eddie opens his mouth. Steve holds a hand up to stop him. “Not right now, I gotta finish Rob’s cake.”
“And when you’re done? You’ll let me enjoy my cake?”
Steve squeaks. “You’re incorrigible, Christ.” He shakes his head. “Yes, when I’m done you can bend me over whatever surface you want.”
Eddie slaps Steve’s ass as he returns to the kitchen. “Hurry up, baby.”

Okay gotta pitch it to you:
In my bluebell fic series (where custard gets yoinked by Shadow milk) one of the oneshots is nearly entirely centered around vanillas singing, he never sings in front of others(except for custard as lullabies), but he's never sung alone because Shadow milk has been watching and wondering why vani didn't become a singer even as a side thing.
Queue vani now using said singing to calm Shadow down from his darkest moments, and maybe just maybe if Shadow is good enough vani will sing a song he wrote.
Tumblr media
"How nostalgic, your grandpa and dad used to love this song..."
Baby if it's cheesy then you can call me Remy
That's a cute pitch my friend. You would assume the singer of the duo would be SM but it's interesting to think it'll be PV instead. SM do have a liking of forcing others to follow his scripts, I'd like to imagine he'll do the same with his songs and such (my, an actor, playwright AND song writer? Such a multi-talented guy!) You just know he'll be tricking/convincing/guilting PV into singing them for him. "Wdym it's too embarrassing I WROTE THEM FOR YOU!"
PV's his singer and his muse
I don't got much more to add so here's some random in-game art of PV holding babies:

unsure if I should color my golem or leave him for the final piece... But he maintains his skin with clays from riverbeds where his community moves (all his colors are picked from wild clays)
