#esp the first one— like i love messy little sketches

[frnkiebby]

Two silly fanarts I found on pin

hi so the first one is clearly a portrait of me~🎃

[montydrawsstuff]

If you're still taking requests, how would the chaotix celebrate their 100th case?

this might be a little tricky, but @ask-saffron-and-friends also asked for some wholesome charmy, so why not make this a reminiscing style thing?

"Another case, in the bag!" Vector announced, chucking the case file to one side. "Nice job, boys! I think this might have been our toughest case yet!"

He threw himself triumphantly into his chair, letting it roll back. Charmy buzzed in swirling patterns to Vector's side, doing little victory dances and singing a silly song to himself. Espio came in after the both of him, going off to the side to retrieve the case file.

"We should at least try to keep our documents in order.. Maybe don't throw it the second you get in... the door.." he quickly realised he was ignored and just got on with his lost cause filing.

"What d'ya say? Chinese? Chinese? I'm feeling like some orange chicken, I don't know about youse."

"I want prawn crackers!" Charmy sang out. Vector pointed in agreement, phone in hand.

"Espio? What's your pick?" Vector looked over to him, still stuck on his filing, by the looks. "Espio?"

"Vector.. Our cabinet is full.." Vector rolled his eyes.

"Then use a cardboard box! What do ya wanna eat?!"

"This was our 100th case."

Vector paused, putting the phone down. "oh..."

"We've solved 100 cases since starting our agency... today" Espio, who was usually not one for sendimentality, was clearly holding back some emotion. "I didn't realise we'd been doing this that long, but when i think about it..."

Vector leaned into his chair. It creaked under his weight. "Yea... Yea! I know exactly what ya mean, bud! When I stop to think about it, we really have been at it for a long time!"

Charmy buzzed down to sit on the desk, his fuzz getting stuck on years of coffee rings. "How long exactly? I don't remember!"

Vector chuckled warmly. "Nah, you wouldn't. You were pretty young, Charms.. I remember our first case- Remember, Espio? With the cat in that tree?"

"I remember! I remember! She was orange! And-and she scratched YOU, Vector!" Charmy called out " I wasn't that young!"

"That poor girl, she was so embarrased after you got her down.." Espio ran a finger over that first file. It was already more yellowed than the rest.

"Getting a little mushy there, Esp?" he stood up and frowned.

"Unfeeling old croc.."

A couple old files in hand, Espio pulled himself up onto the desk and flicked through the old photographs and messy notes. "I can't believe we thought these were acceptable.. look- I spelt evidence wrong here!"

Vector took one for himself "Aghhh, My thumb was on the lense here! How tragic was that? Thank gaia for smartphones, huh?"

"I think these location sketches are still pretty good!" Charmy added, pulling out a couple. "He he! Just kidding! I'm a way better artist now"

"Sure, kiddo. Give us a look at those-" as Vector took the file off Charmy, a small piece of lined paper fell out the back.

"I feel like noodles... Maybe pad thai? Just as long as it's actually spicy this time.."

Vector took the paper and gave it a look over, the handwriting wasn't great, but it just ledgible.

"You wild, Espio! Spicy makes your tummy hurt and you know it!"

"I-it does not!" (It does)

"Ahh leave off, you can have it if ya want! Now shaddup and let me read!"

Charmy blew a raspberry.

Today, we found a ring. the lady was very happy when we gave it to her. she said I was a great detective! Vector is the best boss, even if his breath is bad! And he has big teeth! Espio is an okay detective. I will teach him. I love being a detective, I'm going to be a detective forever!

"Vector? Are you ordering or... not-"

Without warning, Vector pulled the boys into a tight bear hug. Charmy squirmed in his grip but giggled. Espio frantically angled his face away from the others, only to avoid any horn mishaps and not at ALL to hide any embarrassed blushing.

"Boys, Congrats on 100 cases! Let's celebrate! Forget delivery Chinese- Let's go to the Golden Tiger!"

Hi! I just wanted to reach out and say thank you, and that your blog inspires me to keep posting art, even though I don't think it's the best.

I love seeing what others have to share, and I really appreciate that you consider mine worth sharing too!

My recent post (16 different messy link sketches!) was a bit hard for me to share because it's both messy and not really appealing to look at imo. But this blog reblogging it was really nice and helped me out to keep going.

So this might be a silly question, but I was wondering, do you have a preference on what you would like to share for this blog? You might not and that's okay, but if there is a preference, I might want to try focusing my art on that if possible.

Thank you again and I hope you have a wondeful day! :)

ahhh yes, i thought those sketches were very cute! i enjoy them immensely. i went through your blog a little to familiarize myself again with your work, its very good. i don't think you should sell yourself short

IMO of what kind of artwork you should be making, whatever the hell you want. Don't let the lure of notes and popularity lead you to draw things you dont enjoy drawing. It's your skill, your time, your materials, no one should dictate what you do with them. unless its for commission, but that's a whole 'nother ball game

as far as my own personal preferences to what i reblog, im pretty open. though i do have some general rules that i follow. First of all, the artwork has to be from the artist themselves, ooooorrrr in rare occasion, the artist has to be linked prominently. like, i sometimes reblog stuff from RetroGamingBlog2, even though they do not create art, but does link to the artist.

second, the art has to be mostly zelda related. i prefer all zelda related, but, ehh. Like, sometimes people draw smash bros, which has some zelda characters, but not all of them. if its like, one zelda character in a scene of ten, i'll probably skip it. same thing with people posting "art dumps" of sketches with lots of different fandoms. like, if its ten pictures and only one or two are zelda, i might pass. the art has to be of substantial quality to get me to reblog it, cuz i do consider what my audience might like to see. the only exception is artist commissions pages, i do reblog commissions pages regardless of if they are in the zelda fandom or not.

third, i do try to reblog as much from learning artists as more skillful ones, but sometimes the quality just isnt there. and esp. if the learning artist posts many pictures at a time, i might just choose a couple to reblog instead of spamming everyone with a lot of that artist. or it goes straight into the queue, which doles out art over a period of time at a more manageable rate

and fourth, i try not to reblog Ben Drowned stuff, cuz im not really sure its zelda related??? i also find horror stuff distasteful in general, esp without proper content warnings. but that doesn't mean i havent. and usually that stuff isn't tagged by the OG posters, and i'll add tags myself, which slows me down if i have to add a lot of tags. cuz anyone who follows this blog knows i reblog a lot XD

the last thing i'll touch upon is the lemon stuff. im ok with lemon content, heck i make my own lemon content, which i've reblogged to this blog ^^* i tag it "legend of lemon" for anyone who wants to block the tag. and now tumblr has added that mature filter, which is such a big help. sometimes the OG poster doesn't add a mature label and i'll just do it myself to ere on the side of caution. that being said, most lemon art is not posted by the OG artist, and doesn't have a link to the artist either. i also find some lemon art personally distasteful, and i feel weird reblogging it even with a mature label and tags. BUT, ya know, im here to serve. if people want me to reblog everything, then everything i shall reblog. i know there is quite the split in the zelda fandom between lemon and not lemon. i've been blocked by a couple folks because of it XD

hope that answers your question. please create art that you enjoy creating, and if you do have any zelda art that you want me to reblog, just send me a DM or @ me in the post. more than likely i will reblog it

hello! i just found ur blog and omfg i’m in love with your writing style! may i pls have some soulmate au hc’s for a reader who’s an artist?

masterpiece | quackity

(gn reader, quackity is the loml, reader is so talented but v messy, chat teases q to no end, quackity is the biggest softie in the world but refuses to acknowledge it, plantain slander)

listen to: rainbow connection (cover) by sleeping at last

sweet quackity :((

it starts when he’s eighteen, and it happens like almost immediately

he got these splotches of purple on his hands and his mom was like ?? are u getting into fights ?? are you okay???

and q rlly doesn’t mind aside from the weird questions when the colors are a little too close to red or purple

but!! nowadays mostly you just sketch w a pen

it’s during your classes usually,,, ur an art history major and you need something to occupy your hands (which is actually why you started drawing in the first place)

so during the day quackity will acquire lil sketches of famous paintings,,, or sometimes originals,,, but they’re always washed off before the day is done

sometimes random art facts/theories/studies but he has no idea why someone would write him about van gogh’s use of color

*cue u aggressively scrubbing your skin in the shower bc you always forget how permanent the ink is*

quackity is sort of... hesitant when it comes to writing on his skin. esp with streaming, he’s scared that fans will react badly ,, that negative thought keeps him at bay most days

but sometimes he writes lil notes on his legs,,, where chat won’t see anything ,,,, and they’re always either rlly sweet or rlly weird

(hope ur having a good day)

(hey bestie :P )

(soulmate my beloved)

(will u be the howie mandel to my dr. phil)

that last one made you genuinely worried for your future

badly drawn picture of a duck holding a briefcase (this is me)

which confuses you but as he draws more, you begin to associate him with ducks, and sometimes the duck wears a tie, and sometimes a beanie, and one time he had a giant blue axe which kind of concerned you

but you digress

when you get stressed u finger paint

and it’s just a way to create chaos and feel the cold paint on your skin like idk it’s relaxing yknow :)

quackity is streaming

and he doesn’t realize what’s happening. he’s reacting to attaway general,, and he’s kind of invested

it’s only when he pauses it to make a point that he notices

and he tries to hide it but chat notices right away

panicked!quackity

it’s not that he doesn’t trust chat he just knows things can get negative quickly and he wants his space to be free of that

but someone donates “artist q?”

and quackity lets the joke run

he stands up and pulls the mic super close to his mouth

“i’m in my artist arc chat! nihachu watch out >.>”

“CHAT WE’RE POPPIN OFF I AM A PAINTER NOW I PAINT”

it’s literally so silly bc q knows that chat knows but they’re letting him do his bit

and later that night he checks twitter and artist q is trending, but quackity’s soulmate is also trending

it’s all mostly supportive, and there’s already some rlly endearing fan art of quackity with paint all over his hands

quackity private tweet: ❤️❤️❤️

and he gets a lil confidence boost after that

answers questions abt u on his alt

tells the story of his mom thinking he was getting into fights

“guys paula is still my number one and my soulmate will just have to understand that”

“we already agreed we would both reject each other for taylor swift chat it’s fine”

answers donos and doodles on his hand

which he can do now bc chat knows!!!!

(you’re so talented your honor)

(have you ever seen attaway general?)

(charli d’amelio is in it)

(charli d’amelio is in it shit dixie sorry)

and you’re like !!! it’s on my hand !!!! it’s not hidden at all !!!

this image is so endearing to me like you’ve got paint stains all over your hands and quackity’s scrawl is filling in the empty spaces like he didn’t want to interrupt your work

duck with a beret, a mustache, and a paintbrush (this is me now)

ik he is going to share the most mundane things in a way of showing his love

(i listened to this song the other day)

(i bought a literal plantain today those things are big as shit)

(update: not good :/)

(i’m writing lore)

(i have an exam tomorrow)

just :(( sweet quackity wants u to know every little detail abt his life bc he wants u to know him

and you reply when u can

(added to my playlist!)

(i like plantain chips but i’ve never had the fruit alone)

(rip buddy :/)

(lore? like fnaf?)

quackity finds out you know extensive fnaf lore and the two of you stay up arguing about which is worse: the bite of ‘87 or the bite of ‘83

both of your legs look like newspapers that night and it takes a lot of scrubbing to get all of those off

one day you’re painting smth and quackity randomly gives you his discord

(add me and we can watch game theory together and see who is right)

the two of you end up watching it and getting in call with each other

when you hear his voice it’s like everything falls into place

he fills in all the empty spaces,,, answers all the questions you didn’t realize you had,,,, and he’s so wonderful that you find yourself missing him dearly whenever he’s not on call with you

you join him in calls on his streams sometimes like for jackbox or when he’s cooking

“CHAT MY SOULMATE IS A CHICA KINNIE”

you stop joining him on calls on his stream /s

but chat loves you and always takes ur side over q’s

you get tons of followers on your art account and you even get to sell some of your paintings!!

ur new favorite colors to use are blue and yellow i don’t make the rules

but everyone starts to catch on and they find it really sweet

you catch up on quackity lore solely for him and declare yourself a c!quackity apologist

you’ve definitely retweeted the meme that’s like “if villain bad why hot”

when u guys meet quackity kisses your forehead :((((

when you

a drawing of two ducks holding hands (this is us)

thank you for the kind words and for requesting !!!

[nibeul]

hey! i love your art so much! i was just wondering if you have any tips on humanoid anatomy? and like poses n such? thanks! :D

ahh hey, I am a little behind on asks but umm, let me see if I can try to answer this for you because I am not so good at tutorials/articulating my process

I'm not sure if the video is super helpful, but I thought I would include it anyways since some friends on disc were asking if I recorded my drawing process. this is one of the few pieces where I decided to do some cleaner linear since the initial sketch was really messy, though I freehand most of my anatomy because I am um.. very impatient. I don't like to go through the shapes and such, and I don't know, I guess anatomy just kinda feels like it fits into place for me? I've never done any shapes underneath even when I was starting out, hence why it's a bit hard for me to do a tutorial.

but with my way of free handing, I think the first thing to do is really split the bodies into different shapes in your head. depending on the pose (esp if they are just standing there), I will sketch out the torso and then the arms after. you start out with a limbless potato, then you build on with limbs and stuff. hands normally reach down to mid thigh, elbows are like right in the middle of the base of your chest then your waistline (hands are also a bit smaller than your face), then stuff kinda just.. fills in a guess.

your best bet is to look at references. I use myself as a reference a lot, I'll use too the internet if I have a non specific pose, though using yourself as guidelines is the easiest to start out with. I rely on a lot of muscle memory (and also just mimicking things I see in real life), though I need to emphasize that using refs is a good thing. don't be afraid to use refs! if you have CSP, you can even use the models in the program, though also just taking pictures of yourself and drawing that will help you quickly improve your anatomy. I like to piece different refs together, or just use myself entirely, sometimes I use a mix of both.

sorry if that isn't really helpful, anatomy just feels very errr.. natural to me I guess, so it's hard for me to put my thoughts into words :'D

[kingdomcarrots]

Hey, it's me, the anon that asked about good ending of Prohibition!AU. It was my first time asking someone on Tumblr so it could seem a little messy so I'll try again; I love your art, I'm checking your updates regularly now and I have a few questions about your tumblr; first, are you taking requests from anons,some small sketches or something like that? Second,is it still possible to buy physical copy of your "Pilgrimage" comic? And last, is it possible for me to see a glimpse of ProhibitionAU?

Hi happy anon~

Sorry being a mess with asks but this is a curious year, I need to catch up all those asks damn >< Esp yours, we need some good vibes (◕▿◕✿)

I’m not taking requests unless it’s about my main ships or/and AU on this blog! And of course, if it’s inspired me and having time ha ha ha

About the Pilgrimage, I’m sorry, it’s sold out and I don’t think doing a reprint. Maybe if I have enough demands? I don’t know.

And I kicked my butt and I finished this one.

Mornings are always sweet before they go to their jobs ~

Pairings: Geralt x Reader

I ship you with Geralt

Reason:

Geralt is a witty guy himself and granted he doesn’t show it, I think Geralt enjoys the arts. His best friend is a master of them after all.

The Meet:

It was rare you were commissioned by a King, especially during a time of war, but there you were. You sketched the tiny prince and princess of Novigrad diligently. They were hard subjects, neither of the little nuggets wanted to stay still, and their mother didn’t really do her best in telling them to mind. “Could you please look to the window?” You asked, removing the long straight black hair from your face. You’d pinned it but rarely had it done any good, your heavy hair tended to have a mind of its own.

The doors opened, and boots thudded against the stone boots as the silver-haired man moved across the floor.  You knew of him; every person across the continent knew Geralt. He swung the burlap sack over his shoulder, dripping a black liquid behind him with every step.

“Could you make a bigger mess?” You said. The blood stopped in front of your canvas now, pooling next to his feet. You glanced up. “I guess you can.”

“Am I bothering you?” His voice was deep, so deep, you barely understood what he was saying.

“Care to not grumble under your breath and move it along?” The was a subtle amusement in your voice. Geralt rolled his eyes, but he returned a wry smile and rolled his eyes. “Go now.”

He scoffed and continued to walk, swinging the bag over his shoulder and spattering the blood across the canvas onto your work. “Apologies.”

“Oh, you owe me now.” You planted your hands firmly on your hips.

“It’s an honor to be in your debt.” Geralt called over his shoulder. “Perhaps I can pose for you as a reprisal.”

Your face tinged with heat. “That will be fine.”

“If you are finished flirting, the king will see you now.” The guard said.

The Ship:

Geralt made an effort to see you after he ruined your painting. First, he brought you fruit from the nearby market and kept you company while.

He entertained the two children and cut your paint time down by hours, and for that you were grateful

Geralt was captivated by you, and for him, that was a rare thing. He asked you to travel the continent with him, and to his surprise, you told him yes.

It’s funny you love cleaning because Geralt has a knack for being a tad bit messy. You clean things up, and he trudges in blood and guts from some recent kill, and you never get mad. His genuine happiness to see you each time he comes through the door trumps all of that

He loves your music, and he loves that you love music. He doesn’t tell it to you often but oftentimes you playing music is the only way he can sleep, he knows for sure that you are safe and sound.

His favorite thing about you is your dedication to your family, he likes how you have grown close to Ciri and even Jaskier, who plays music and writes songs with you every chance he gets.

The relationship with Geralt includes:

Hand holding while walking through obscure fields of flowers,

Sex under the stars because sometimes you are not going to have four walls,

Adventures and sporadic campfire ballads

A breeding kink - for sure, done deal

Fights about little things but him always cracking first

 For Ship requests they can be submitted via Asks if paid by Venmo (laketaj30) Cashapp (laketaj30). If you prefer to use Ko-Fi HERE is the Link. Ko-Fi will then tell you the same guidelines below! The ships I create will be 500-700 words and specialized for you. Guaranteed within 7 days and I keep open communication during that time. This is helping me get back to school and i appreciate all donations sincerely!

🏠 (i imagine it being all messy lmao)

🏠 - What does their living space look like?

ooon the contrary, you’d be quite surprised. i did do a post about this in the past, i think, regarding what sonic’s place looks like. but some aspects have changed since then but it still generally has the same layout?

so sonic and tails live together in green hill zone. there’s this decent, big sturdy tree they found among several other trees that they decided to construct into a tree house of sorts with a bit of a modern twist to it. 

so imagine something like 

just with a tropical setting instead of a cabin aesthetic. it’s more like a hut, kinda.

anyway it’s relatively cozy, especially the den/livingroom area- which is actually nestled inside a hollow part of the tree. it’s got a real nice, tropical rainforest feel to it. its small but spacious, and the general area is decently hidden unless you really know what to look for. tails also set up a security system just in case, but honestly it’s one of the safest places you could be.

in terms of living conditions, there really isn’t a whole lot in the place? in fact i’d say the messiest part of the house would actually be tails room/lab/workshop to be honest. and they have a tiny bot that tails built which is basically a modified roomba with the personality of one of those ali vector robots and it basically helps maintain the place while they are away (and kinda works as an assistant for tails.)

but,, yeah sonic’s room is honestly really tidy because he keeps most things in his closet and doesn’t really have much else to keep in his room besides a bed, a nightstand, a dresser and his guitar. there might be some clothes left on the floor but eventually either sonic takes care if buzzert doesn’t get to it first lmao. 

second messiest part of the house would probably be the den if only because thats usually where tails and sonic hang out if they’re just chilling & what not, playing videogames or watching tv or something lmao. but yeah.

this place kinda doubles as their base since tails set up so many systems and tricked the heck out of the place to make sure they’d be well protected and eggman wouldn’t discover them.

more under the cut + some diagrams to give a vague idea of what the layout is

so here’s the overall layout of the place (please excuse the shitty sketch lmao i am not an interior designer) 

couple things to note; 

they use the balcony as their front door more often than not because tails can fly and sonic can run up walls/platforms and its easy to access if you have special powers so, yeah

which is funny because it’s not technically their front door, its just a balcony/platform. their front door is really that secret entrance you see but they like never use it honestly akfjhfgh. that’ll be the one a normal person would probably use

in the den there’s two couches that kinda face eachother and create this little lounging space and they have a big flat screen + rad gaming & movie set up in there which is the main source of entertainment if theyre hanging out. but there’s also some cupboards and stuff for various toiletries and housing items and what have you. 

tails’ workshop has two different levels. upstairs (which connects to the bridge to the rest of the place) is the lab for researching/programming/what have you, downstairs is the workshop for building stuff. 

secondly, here’s what sonic’s room looks like specifically in terms of layout

his bed is a modified hammock. it rests at about waist level, like any other bed and is lined with a lot of plush padding & pillows and kinda gently slopes in towards the center (esp if he’s laying down in it). it’s actually really comfortable and ideal, almost like a little nest.

it sits next to a window that he typically leaves open because he loves feeling the breeze brush through his room and listening to the night sounds of green hill. its usually very peaceful. even during the day. (unless of course there’s a storm or something lmao.)

next to his bed is just a simple little night stand that has some discarded stuff on it, like a water bottle and maybe some snack wrappers or fliers he’s collected on his travels that advertise events around the world to check out. there’s also a lamp, and he usually sets his phone on it too.

the dresser is kinda where he stuffs what clothes he does have. there’s really not a whole lot in there but yeah there’s some things. whats more prominent is that there’s a few picture frames sitting ontop the dresser one of him and tails, one of him, tails, knuckles and amy, and then an older one of his family back on christmas island before jules passed away.

sonic keeps basically everything else in his closet. though recently he’s taken his guitar out and has it sitting out in the open now so that it’ll remind him to use it more often these days.

there’s definitely some plants in his room too, because he wanted to maintain that nature aesthetic. he’s got some flowers & vine plants growing in there, the vine plants’ pots hang from the ceiling and their tendrils grow along the ceiling and along the walls a little bit. 

yeah i think that’s basically it, if i think of any more things i’ll probably add it to this post later but yeah thats what sonic’s living conditions are like. besides, still having nomadic tendencies and sleeping in random spots where-ever when he’s not here.
