What did/do you like about Pharah?

Uh, gameplay-wise, I really love characters in shooters who rely on three-dimensional movement techs. Chaining together hover and jump to stay in the air for as long as possible and keep momentum is so satisfying, and picking enemies off from the sky made me feel like a bird of prey. I was a good Pharah main.

Story-wise, there unfortunately isn't much to canonically go off because Pharah is so underutilized and neglected. Her personality's pretty boilerplate "heroic hero" (she's literally inspired by Captain America).

But it's the crumbs/bits and pieces that I really latched onto. Pharah's a confirmed lesbian; her short story with Baptiste implies she harbors a crush on Mercy (fucking thank you.). She's biracial Egyptian/First Nations. She has major mommy issues, having grown up both admiring and resenting Ana. She's the bridge between Old Overwatch, inspired by the idealized heroes who surrounded her childhood, and New Overwatch. She's one of the only inter-generational characters in the cast; someone whose experiences span the gap, which is why I seriously believe Pharah would make a great main character.

There isn't much to go off of, though; she's a very uncomplicated character (she's a soldier for a private military corporation, lol.). But that just means she's a blank slate character, so I've seen fanfic writers run wild and create some really interesting takes on her. My favorite interpretation of her's a dense, herbo gym-bro type (a lot of her liens are about work outs, exercising, and playing sports) who's easily excitable under her seemingly self-serious, armored visage. We see how she tends to gloat and hype herself up when she's on a streak too, so Pharah definitely has a competitive and boastful side under her more professional and militant performance.

Now Mercy? Mercy is a real complex character.

As I've said in my Art Year in Review 2023, I've noticed that Ive done a art recap for 5 years now, so thought I'd put together a timeline with some of my fav posted pieces over the years!

I find it really interesting how my art both got messier yet more coherent. I'm often too lazy to finish up drawings properly nowadays but at the same time, the sheer amount of sketching has taught me to focus more on shapes and expression so that clearness isn't the main goal anymore.

Anyways, happy New Year everyone! I'm already cooking up something stupid cool for 2024!

The Tsunade arc in Naruto drives me crazy … because it makes me want to grab Kishimoto by the collar and shake him like: "you mean to tell me that you actually CAN write interesting and powerful female characters??? you’re telling me that you actually KNOW how to write women who are complicated and messy but still full passion and ambition??? all this time you could do it but you chose NOT TO???????? AND THEN YOU NEVER DID IT AGAIN???"

mha nation how yall doin

AAAAAAAAAAAAAASJHDJSJAHJSKDHSJSL

FUCK

Fuck harry potter fans and FUCK the marauder fans

IT DOES NOT MATTER IF “oh haha we changed the original canon so this character is actually trans uwu” STOP COMPARING MALE CHARACTERS TO REAL TRANSFEMS OH MY FUCKING GOD HOW STUPID AND TONE DEAF CAN YOU BE

Like take a step back and think just for a second. Use some critical thinking here. And imagine a world in which a trans person might be uncomfortable being compared to a character who is not the gender they id as. Maybe just for a second.

IN NO UNIVERSE IS YOUR FANFIC-IFIED SIRIUS BLACK AN OKAY CHARACTER TO COMPARE A TRANSFEM TO 💀 I DONT KNOW HOW TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND THIS

“Oh everyone thinks he’s like transfem or nonbinary or gnc now” DOESNT FUCKING MATTER 😭 “we took out the basics of the original story so how people react to being compared to a character should take into account how I think about it and they shouldn’t be upset, you’re just not getting it, maybe read some fanfiction and you’ll understand” FUCKING CHOKE HOLY SHIT DO YOU HEAR YOURSELVES

Yes Countryhumans in 2023. Trust me I'm more suprised than you.

So yeah I've tried to make designs that match more my current artstyle instead of the ball head ? I'm not sure if it looks cursed or not. And I couldn't miss the occasion to try to draw traditionnal russian outfit.

here's a throw back: my first ever OC. her name was lisa scarlet. i made her when i was like....10 maybe?? she could do literally anything she put her mind too and was peppy and bubbly and loved to sing and hang out with cool guys. she hated villains the most with her number one enemy being slade from teen titans (her dad????? idk she had like 4 evil dads depending on my mood) she also had like 7 boyfriends. anyway this one is for kid me who never could have been able to fathom drawing her.
