Sun being his artistic self! He went from making toddler's art to children's art! Clap!

I missed doing traditional art. Originally I was going to paint this (thus the weird contours on his... Interesting artwork), but 2024 tired me out of it a bit.

The terrible self portrait was @/the_moonshine_jester on insta's idea. I think I finally grew comfortable in my stylization of their face, it's not game accurate but it fits how I draw! I like making their mouth simultaneously too cartoony but also... Almost person like within my artstyle. Kinda weirds me out in a good way.

A very important thing to me about the batfam magical girl AU is that the rest of the characters are classic dc comics characters. Which means that while they have many similarities (magical girls are like lantern corps with more glitter and less police anyway, and the magical batfam story can get really dark and tragic at times), they're constantly faced with the clash between comics logic and magical girl anime logic. By which I mean:

______

Bruce, waking up the morning after adopting Dick on impulse and then sleeping the sleep of the dead: Wait, since when do I have a son? Eh, it doesn't matter.

Clark, who was listening into Gotham for whatever reason: The fuck it doesn't?

_____

Lex Luthor: How did you know about my evil evil plan?

Tim: A little bird told me.

Kon: Really, robs?

*cue glittery red robin with a crescent moon on its head landing on Tim's shoulder and speaking in an annoyingly high-pitched voice*

_____

Jason: With the power of love and this gun I found-

Kyle: Can you be serious for one fucking second?

Jason: No actually I am. I was gonna shoot the guy and accidentally left my heart open to channel the energy of the Galaxy and in doing so I saw the man for all that he could be and the magic of the Robin and the Wolf combined to make the gun magic and when the bullet hit him it changed the man on a fundamental level and he realised he wanted to follow his lost dream of selling portraits by the beach instead of trafficking people.

Kyle: what-

Jason: he died a few minutes later though. I did still shoot him in the heart.

After Justice League shenanigans lead to a multiverse portal opening:

Failsafe!Batman: -so I pulled out the shark repellent to fight he jokerized space sharks, and then I fell from the moon-

Magical!Batman: That doesn't make any sense! Shark repellent spray is an absurd thing to have in your utility belt and besides, you don't just fall off from the moon!

Green Arrow : Finally somebody said it.

Magical!Batman: You have to take the magic portal on the other side of the moon!

Green Arrow: ...Spoke too soon.

I know people are talking all over about this new side of Sun’s personality and I just want to remind everyone that the fandom looked at Moon, who for the longest time their only canon hint of softness was his poster, and still turned him into a softie just suffering from a virus. I don’t think we need to worry about soft Sun not being portrayed anymore

I drew all of these today, first for the Sunstreaker design and then I got through all of them because I’m really not sure how to spend a Tuesday afternoon now

Like side tangent, I am not sure what to do with my time on my off days anymore. So I have my classes end by 12:20 every day, and on Tuesdays and Fridays in particular, I have nothing else to do for the rest of the day (the others have something or other going on, usually work). I would like to spend that time doing actual schoolwork, like I have an assignment due by tonight, but I didn’t know what to do immediately after coming back to my dorm, so I decided to keep drawing, and now it’s around 5 or so and my day’s gonna be over in a few hours, so I should get working on my schoolwork

I feel like I wasted the day, but what am I supposed to do the whole day? I’m not sure anymore, because I have way more free time than last semester

But anyways, back on to the actual art

So I started off today trying to draw a Sunstreaker design more based off of TFA, since I thought that’d be cool. But I really didn’t know what I was doing with it, so eventually I just decided to draw his g1 design instead, so I at least somewhat know what I’m doing

I also had some of his toy designs as well, so I took from that too. This goes for all the characters by the way, particularly with the tires

But yeah after finishing Sunstreaker, I figured might as well draw Sideswipe too. And then after that I decided to do Bluestreak and Cliffjumper, for reasons I don’t really know. Like okay, I knew after Sideswipe I wanted to do more with my poses, and so I had the mental image for Cliffjumper’s pose, but for whatever reason I ended up drawing Bluestreak before that

But anyways yeah. Character and posing practice this is

I think Sideswipe turned out the worst in all honesty. I just didn’t know as much what I wanted to do with him, and his helmet was confusing for me to draw. Probably shouldn’t have tried drawing him from an upwards perspective

But other than him I think the others turned out pretty good. No real notes on Sunstreaker. Bluestreak I feel is off in some way, but it’s also in a way I like. Cliffjumper’s probably second worst, but not as bad. I think it’s mostly the head, and I think it came out wonky like that because I drew it last and the original rectangle was not at that angle

I was going to elaborate more, but I really only have thoughts about Cliffjumper and how I like him small and violent, but I don’t want him only associated with Bumblebee. And also generally that Sunstreaker should be in more things

So I guess we stop here? Not really much to say on my end. But I don’t really know what to add on here

I just think some of these guys are neat, and also I needed something to draw today

I still need to work more on more dynamic poses, as well as bettering the anatomy in general, but we’re getting there

what draws you back to your country what draws you back to your land when i was a kid i told myself if i ever left iran i'd never go back 2 years into living in the UK i started looking at news on iran again 10 years in and i visited it for the first time again and today i heard an iranian mother talk in farsi to her child on the train to london the way my mother used to and i wanted to cry i wanted to ask her whether they're still cutting the mountaintops whether the lakes are still drying today i showed the person i was with pictures of waterfalls and palaces and forests and snow-white north something odd pulls me back with increasing force i can't ignore it ever again

What would you choose? :0c

(note: original image is from HERE (link) - but I edited it to add a wider variety of options.. also added $3 extra to the total, even though I know that makes it more uneven lol, I thought if you're adding 10 whole extra items, the money to spend should at least be increased slightly, if that makes sense..)

Obsessed with how Claudia and Soren view magic.

Claudia views magic as something amazing and special, even dark magic despite having to ‘harvest’ from living creatures in order to use it. Because in the end how could something that helps her friends and family be bad? How could something that saved an entire kingdom from starvation be evil?

Soren meanwhile doesn’t care about dark magic vs primal magic. In his eyes Dark magic can be used for immense good just as much as Primal magic can be used for horrific evils. At the end of the day all magic has ever done is divide people and cause years of suffering.

But they are both such hypocrites (affectionate).

Claudia views dark magic as a gift, something to take pride in having. But when she is finally broken down she reflects back she feels disgusted at herself for viewing living creatures as parts. Then when pushed into a dangerous situation she cried out “Don’t make me! Don’t make me do dark magic!”

Soren believes the world would be better without magic at all. Yet he turned to it, he looked his father in his eyes and said “You have your other way! Dark magic.” Not caring that Viren explained the original spell was a primal spell and the new spell would require a terrible sacrifice.

#miqomarch day 31 :: Dawn

Finishing this off with a serene Noa, basking in the soft light of dawn ! Thank you for following her through this little journey! ♥

Did you guys know Capri sun was populair in 1990's. Did you guys know. That that's. You know. Relevant. For when you're writing a fic in a setting around that time. That people could just be casually drinking capri sun. This is brought by the fact that I've drank like 10 of them today (the orange one).

No, of course I'm not planning for Tom to one day be drinking capri sun in my fic. Perish the THOUGHT. I'm NOT predictable!!! (I so am. I'm canonizing this in my fic. No one can stop me. Dakota is gonna be like wow my favorite pouch drink and introduce Tom to the really difficult straw stabbing pouch drink. And Tom would be annoyingly good at getting the straw in the pouch at the first try.). Man. I love the power I wield.

Working on a height/body type comparison ref for Silly Celestials (which is why they are missing shirts/capes/etc to see their body better). Starting off with the Eclipse trio! Helios, Clip, and Solstice. Specifically, later on in the story after they've gotten any of their remodels and such.

In honour of the fact that this blogs birthday is coming up soon in March of 2025, I decided to redraw the jancy titanic au portraits (with a few changes) from the first piece of fanart I ever posted to the internet!
