Alfonse is always Two Misguided Sketch Strokes away from accidentally becoming Corrin or Inigo/Laslow. You wouldn't fucking think this would be the case. But somehow. It fucking is.

Throwback to november when I had to drag this big fucking painting of Jon throughout an entire day of school because he was too big to fit in my locker.

//zeus week day 2 - family

zeus taking his sisters home from the chuck e cheese :)

bonuses for this under the cut!

this is the actual portrait of zeus' parents in the bg! i tried a more semi-realistic style, and i was heavily inspired by the family portrait in the netflix castlevania show. the file name is literally "brundlevania mama and papa" lol.

and these are the quick concepts for the rest of the family!! i gave mama brundle the name "iris" after the greek goddess, plus pretty flower. i imagine that she's a little sad that her kids don't look a lot like her (save for lulu and belle having her eyes), but thor's genes are just too strong LMAO. she's also definitely the legit cool mom, and supports her kids no matter what.

also, i should mention that lulu's hair (unbraided) is more in-between mom and dad. i like to think that kureha is their retainer, and that she helps them do their hair every morning :) you'll never guess what belle's favorite anime is (hint: it's sailor moon. lulu's favorite is naruto).

i do have a design for kureha, but i need to render it digitally LOL. plus i need to design hiro's mom...... one of these days.

The way people are responding to Taylor Swift's new album because they don't think she is tortured or mentally ill enough to call it that is fucking embarrassing.

God forbid an artist ever exaggerates for artistic purpose. God forbid a celebrity writes about pain or suffering if they haven't experienced the maximum amount of trauma in their life.

I mean, everyone knows the moment you become a celebrity all your human experience disappears and you elevate to a new level of existence where you cannot have relatable experiences anymore for the rest of your life.

i should start a tag for the 🫵ai generated🫵 posts bc of how much it fucking comes up. i made that meme once and deleted it and had to remake it a couple times before i just decided to hold onto it cuz people are always fucking reposting genai shit knowingly or not and half the time i see zero notes already pointing it out

[zapsoda]

it always shocks me how comfortable people on the internet are with being rude as fuck to random strangers minding their own business

Hi tumblr!!! I keep forgetting to post here

I plan on posting my artfight attacks here soon but for now here's some sketches!!!

[bitchthefuck1]

I don't want to solely blame swifties for this bc reading comprehension is piss poor across the board, but the particular attitude her fans have fostered towards music where songs are coded messages you have to crack to figure out exactly who/what the singer is talking about is genuinely thee most annoying thing in the world

ok as an artist i personally find traditional painting to be. really really annoying. like. i do not have the patience for it and i just find it to be really frustrating to set up and actually do and i end up not liking the results. i find that there's little room for mistakes and trying to fix them usually ends up with me making 50 other ones, paints can be so inconsistent and having to rely on availability and certain brands to continue making the paint is really inconvenient, not to mention expensive. spending a bunch of time trying to mix the right shade of paint, only for it to go down a completely different shade of colour and not being able to do anything about it is so frustrating as someone who likes consistency and having things just, y'know, not change colour as soon as it dries. plus, they all use different chemicals and can go off really easily or change textures and i am just not ok with having all my materials having an expiration date like food. lead and graphite pencils just don't do that and they can last for years, they're more reliable. every paint is drastically different and trying to find the right one is not only time consuming but, again, expensive, and i don't even see the point in experimenting when most of my materials end up not even getting used if i don't like using them. plus, i'm just.... really impatient. waiting for paint to dry sucks and is why i much prefer digital or just drawing something because i don't need to wait for anything, it just works. and then when i do want to take my time and work slowly for a better result, it dries too fast. it's kinda hellish trying to balance that time, especially considering how inconsistent paints are.

i like to use guidelines when doing art and i find painting straight onto a canvas to be really tricky because there's a lack of direction for me to actually paint. i'm at a complete loss at what to do when i pick up a brush because i can't map it out first without risking screwing up the paint. there's just so many things to keep track of and so much wet paint to avoid and i just do not have the mind for it. putting colours on a canvas and praying that it works just isn't it for me and requires a discipline that i just don't wanna involve myself with. painting is also just like... really exhausting and kinda painful. i got some pretty bad back issues and my arms tire and get sore easily and quickly when i'm standing in front of a canvas. it's a really physical activity for me and i just don't find something to be very fun to do at all when it's physically hurting me. i know drawing on a canvas has this issue too, which is why i prefer sketchbooks. sitting down and drawing something that doesn't break my entire spine every time i do it is much more preferrable than questioning if i should go to the doctor every time i make a brushstroke, lol

that's not to say that there's nothing i like about painting though! i can paint simple little things, and i like doing that. i like mixing colours with a palette knife and i find it fun and even a little relaxing. i painted some cute little chibi cardboard cutouts of the mario brothers one time and i found that to be really fun and i think i'd like to do that again! but apart from that, i just do not have the patience for it. i love the look of traditional paintings and i find many to be really beautiful, but i could never get into actually doing it myself because i hate the process. i'm content with just sketching and doing digital stuff because that's more fun to me and less stressful of a process to do. it's fun, it allows for more mistakes, it's easier to build up layers of shading and lines, not to mention using building up a figure with guidelines is super helpful with visualising what i want it to look like, and i can just erase something if i don't want it there or want to change something. it just makes sense to me.

tl;dr i dont like painting because it's inconsistent, expensive, time-consuming, directionless, frustrating and it makes my back hurt really bad. i'll just stick to drawing stuff :)

If you're a creator and you needed to hear this today:

You have no idea how many people lurk on your work. No idea how many times people go back to revisit your work. How big they smile when they simply think about your work. How fast their heart beats, how excited they get when they see that you posted something.

People are shy with their feedback. Sometimes it’s because they’re simply shy. Other times it’s because they assume you already know how great and talented you are. Could be both.

My point is, even if you barely have any likes or reblogs, don’t get discouraged. You have a lot of silent fans, but they are still your fans. Keep on creating. Because there is always someone out there who will love what you have made.
