rewatching the achilles animatic again and even though every frame was a new different special kind of torture it was still fun. Sometimes. therapeutic even one could say

#kind of miss working on it is what i mean . just working on a polished/long animatic project #and like you can REALLY tell i was struggling with 90% of the poses and faces and head shapes UEHEUJEGSJS #the only things that look consistently good are like. The hands (?) kind of. a little #i mean the animatic is good and looks great obviously but you KNOW i wasnt lying when i said in the description that #drawing is hard. unfortunately #i think at that time i was actually at the cusp of burnout too ? if im remembering correctly ….. and then i kept working on the animatic #through the sheer power of autism . and then more autism happened forever #But well if im honest most of the reason it looks wonky is probably bc i was just not used to drawing iterators #like before that i’ve drawn them a few tjmes sure but it’s been a good year or two #and i was drawing more normal lookin humanoids instead of bald ass robots #it was fucking up my artstyle sooo bad #it’s interesting to look back now #i havent drawn iterators in forever but i think i’ve gotten a bit better at them even if i still struggle #crammerposting

Guess who's excited to get their ballot in the mail tomorrow? Me! So I slapped together a quick comic, as well as a map based off of this and this. A list of when same day registration is available is at the bottom of this article.

But also: wow, early voting stuff is so confusing! For example, I get my ballot in the mail tomorrow, and I can immediately mail it back. But if I want to drop it off in person, I need to either go to a special ballot drop box by city hall, or wait for early in-person voting sites to open, which isn't until Oct 22nd for my state.

Or like, early voting in Louisiana is apparently from Oct 16 to Oct 29th? And then there's a week of no voting, and then polls open again on Nov 5th? Or like how the only day you can register and then immediately vote is Oct 26th?

Anyway, best way to figure out the info for your area is to check your state and county's election website. I've found usvotefoundation.org to have clear fact sheets for each state (including ID requirements, polling location finders, as well as direct links to state election websites): https://www.usvotefoundation.org/state-voter-information . You can also jump to each state's election websites via usa.gov, or by searching directly, though some websites are more confusing than others.

Happy voting!

Oh, and here's the voter registration deadlines map from last time, in case you haven't registered and want to register. Oct 7th is the last day for a bunch of states!

#us election 2024 #last election cycle i literally found out my county's early voting dates via an ad on my grocery store shopping cart #anyway it's time to research ballot measures!! and city council!#as an introvert i love mail-in ballots bc i get to curl up on the couch on a sunday afternoon to do my voting #I'm glad my state makes it so easy #but good luck to those states where it's hard #unfortunately the only way to make it easier in those states is by voting in better state legislatures and election boards #i actually had the map done early last week but i wanted to draw a little comic to go with it lol #and then i procrastinated and now it's 2am on oct 7th oops

[Based on a group chat (I was Wen Ning)]

Congratulations to everyone who graduated recently, or is soon to graduate!!!

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wen qing #wen ning #wei wuxian #It has been a hard journey! Be it highschool or a bachelors or a masters or a PhD - It was hard work to get where you are.#Congrats to everyone who now has a title they can bully their friends into using. You earned it.#Based on my last 'based on a group chat' comic...you all might have an idea of what niche I occupy in the ecosystem.#I'm the middle child of the group chat what can I say. I take the 1000 blows every day.#Also...sorry that this comic is a lot rougher than usual. Unfortunately I've hurt my neck + shoulders + wrists #meaning 100% of what I need for stability when I draw is compromised.#Its uh...hard to draw well when you've got a tremour in your upper extremities.#I will rest up and get back to better comics soon!#I hope you all enjoy the debut of post-revival-pre-timeskip Wen Ning! He needed a cute redesign. Because I want him to.

Do u still have that height chart u made of all the characters? Im trying to find references, no prblem if u dont!!!

You might be referring to my old one, but this is my updated one! Forgive the hastily doodled on clothes - this is also my body type/scar/tattoo/etc/general ref sheet, and while I've posted it without the colors before, it feels weird posting it with colors cause for some reason then it looks like theyre all naked, lol. Ref sheets are funny that way. So doodled on clothes it is.

#pjo #riordanverse #my art #Anonymous #ask #ugh hold on tags.#percy jackson #nico di angelo #leo valdez #hazel levesque #will solace #annabeth chase #piper mclean #drew tanaka #thalia grace #jason grace #juniper pjo #frank zhang #reyna ramírez-arellano #calypso pjo #PHEW also yeah i know like Grover and Clarisse and several others are not in there i apologize #this is my ref for deadangelos (theres an alt version of the ref with Leo's prosthetic and some alt colors for like. Nico but he gets a tan #so it mostly focuses on characters on deadangelos that crop up a lot. or that i have strong height hcs about #grover i unfortunately still have not decided how tall he is [pensive emoji]#with calypso on the doodled clothes you can tell i didnt wanna draw another dress lol #but yeah hard to make a body type ref sheet with clothes. kind of obscures it and defeats the purpose

there ain't any place for ya, wankers.

get out.

finally! my contribution to #fixtf2 is done! it took about 8-9 in total, excluding creating refs in sfm(i don't remember how long it took).

i might have joined only about 2 months ago, but this game and community already became very dear to my heart. there are so many cool and creative people, and thanks to tf2 i've made new friends as well! i love it so much and i want for the game to be in a playable state again. so that everyone could enjoy a game of casual without spending hours trying to get into a lobby without bots and cheaters.

my love isn't blinded though and i've seen some issues with the movement both in-game and outside of the game. so here are some quick reminders for those who need it:

#fixtf2 is an ongoing peaceful protest. drawing sniper robots getting destroyed or killing bots in game with army of pocket medics by your side is fine. going out of your way to harass(or worse) anyone is not.

not everyone knows what's going on with tf2! if you see anyone questioning the movement - even if you think they might be a troll - cool down your head and tell what is going on and why. there are many videos explaining the situation, share them!

don't drop to your enemy's level. whether or not you believe #fixtf2 would end well, stay civil. if discussion starts going in the wrong direction, leave before it goes completely sour.

i really hope it goes well, but for it to happen we must work together in unity. think twice before you act, sign the petition if you didn't already and keep protesting!
