DEMON AU UPDATE- THE OVA PT 4
PREVIOUS PART OF THE OVA: https://www.tumblr.com/infohazardouz/750942115030335488/demon-au-update-the-ova-pt-3?source=share
LINK TO THE FULL COMIC MASTERLIST: https://www.tumblr.com/infohazardouz/718243422799052800/welcome-home-demon-au-masterlist
And that concludes the OVA! Sorry for the shaky quality/repeat panels- I have tendinitis in both my wrist and elbow haha
It was so strange drawing Wally so small and puppet-y but I mean... he's a little cloth guy, especially next to his fleshy counterpart. Full polished art of these two probably on the horizon but for now... gotta go to Home Depot and get me some 2x4s :0)
Glad to be back!!! Thanks for sticking around ;0D

DO YOU KNOW WHAT!! I had to go check the comic I just posted, as in that case I did not time the blushing intentionally. I mean it must have been in the back of my mind. But I didn't sit there planning this.
his pupils dilate like crazy too and then go back to being small immediately afterwards!! It was so cute
Which means I've also internalised this truth... no matter what Jayce is taken with Viktor... You're so right.
and I bet it’s painfully obvious to silco too haha! Seriously, Jayce is SMITTEN.
also, that one ask where your pondering if vik should be tsahik in training seems really cool!! Plus I’d feel like it would have correlation with his illness and such.but after seeing that human science in ur other comic he’d lose all interest immediately and convince Jayce to give him some human science books
(Speaking of illness, does viktor have his chronical illness in this au?)
DAMN IT I also didn't do the pupils on purpose... I was drawing this on autopilot, I swear...
And yes, Silco will exploit the hell out of that, which is probably also why Vi will be left to flirt with Cait more than she really ought to.. Gotta seduce away as many Humans as possible.
I don't think Viktor will lose interest due to science. I think the one thing he'll flip over is the use of metal and human artefacts. But being an avid student of the mysteries of Eywa, he'd see how they can complement each other.
For example, Viktor would see the dream walker's neural link as something weak and feeble. Eywa could transfer consciousness. The people all "pass" through her, after all.
However, he'd about lose it at cloning. You're saying he could have a new body made, without illness, and then use his own superior technique to transfer bodies? But there's no way Piltover base would grow a whole ass Na'vi over a decade just to please the locals.
Jayce would definitely offer to have a better brace made, and metal pins in his spine, which would be a super contencious thing.
So far what I have is that Viktor was born with a weaker leg, nothing bad, but it made him limp a bit and lose his footing. One day he fall down a cliff face and broke that same leg even worse (hence the scar under the brace)
He's been using braces he makes himself since, and canes where possible. Zaunites live in a large canyon, so there are a lot of steep cliffs, but Viktor's on better footing now. He doesn't have a lung disease, but he has issues due to the amount of time he spends in the caverns beneath. It has a lot of strange gases down there, but if you delve deep, you can access an enormous root of spirit tree, around which zaunites are buried.
He's down there often enough to have coughing issues and allergies. He's generally not super healthy, but not as bad as human Viktor. He's not on a death timer.
I wouldn't want the story to focus on that. Though I really like their timeloop arc for all its visuals, it's just not something I'd want to implement here, though them having new bodies/becoming new people is definitely part of the theme.

Do you have any advice for people who might want to get into making comics like yours? I'm always pleasantly surprised by how fast you pump them out and even have other little projects/doodles on the side. How do you keep the quality consistent?
(sorry if this sounds a lil cold (?) i rlly love your peppercakes they r so skrunkly)
First off - Thank you !! I'm honored you like my lil guys and comics hehe! (and no worries on the tone !! I didn't think it sounded cold at all!)
Alright secondly lets see...
Short answer: You really just gotta start and keep going!! Once you start you get the momentum and it gets much easier (like riding a bike, which people like to use as comparison often).
Long answer:
Alright I thought about how to answer for this for a bit and I think I'll break it down to the main aspects.
So timing ! Basically I'm drawing 24/7 (and I'm currently not working as it's an off time for me, but I shall in a week and you will see that my posting frequency will decrease substantially). Ok maybe not 24/7 but I essentially am drawing from the moment I wake up to when I sleep (minus eating, restroom, working out, some errands) and while I do not say this is the key to being better, I'm just realistically displaying how much time I'm spending on drawing. (... one of my new years resolution is to not in fact do that and go out more because I feel like I'm being cooped up in my room a lot haha). But minus the amount of time I spend itself a lot of it has to do with the importance I take in speed drawing. And when I say that I mean quite literally how fast I can draw. AND I think a large part of where that speed comes from is how I like to generalize designs and just my overall process of drawing. (Which, I will not go over now but if you'd like I could make a separate post on how I go about doing my usual sketch, lines, colors, etc) Like, I love ff and all of it's crazy designs but it's so complicated I simplify everything till it's juussstt recognizable, and that's something I feel like really adds to the speed of things.
Also that's sweet of you to say for the quality haha (I always am thinking stuff like ah man this aint it... not my finest work, and then just post anyways cuz who cares I already made it heh)! That being said my quality wasn't alwaysss consistent! Here's an example of my very first "comic" I made for my characters:
Tumblr media
And here's the same 4 panels I redrew just about 2 years later:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So I've been basically drawing comics for this for just about 2 years now (will be 2 years officially in a few months) and I most certainly did not get here in one night. I think, as I've mentioned, it's really important to keep up with the comic making (or drawing in general) so that, yes, you can get better, but the way you get better is that it becomes familiar to you. So you can approach concepts and ideas with a more experience. And I think a large part of what holds alot of people back is the idea that "ah I can't do this idea I'm not good enough." So what !! Still do it, I most certainly did it a couple years ago when I barely scribbled my ideas. And then you can totally go back and redraw it ! no "Rule" saying you can't go back and revisit your ideas, like hell even professional artists go back and republish their works with their improved art styles ! (ex. Tokyo Ghoul... even though I don't care for the story, it's still pretty cool! I think he even added more scenes? Anyways..). I think there was that one post going around where it was something like do it scared and that's really REALLY what you gotta do.
And that leads to my final point. You gotta love doing it. I like to make comics because I LOVE my characters, their story, and actually the act of putting it all together into a story, drawn comic, visuals, etc. And, I found my method of loving them. For me, what held me back was the "structure" of comics. I mean you can p much see that the way I like to do things is def not the "traditional" manga/western comic book style right? I won't go as far to say that I "made up this way" of comic making where it's one panel at a time but it certainly worked for me. (I have no idea how many comic wips I have collecting dust in my folders from my earilier days of making this comic where I just gave up 20% of the way in because I really could not vibe with the formatting, but then I figured out I really like to "thumbnail" comics (a result of when I was studying storyboards alot imo) and I went on from there).
This is where I feel like alot of people get stuck too. Where they really do like their ideas, their character, their stories and such, but as soon as they try and go through the process of creating in a certain way... the wind is just instantly taken out of their sails. And while I do believe sometimes you just gotta push through and do it anyways, sometimes that's not the right method to go about it. So instead of brute forcing a method of creation and eventually forming a bad relationship with the process, find a method that works for you. And maybe it doesn't look all that great or good compared to others, but that comes in time and as long as you like doing it, that's what really matters at the end of the day.
Tl;dr: be a lil freak, and lil weird about what you do (this applies to everything, not only art :3)
Alright so I think that's all the points? idk if you still want to ask me stuff, feel free to anytime :) Always happy to share my thoughts!

Lodgersona Masterpost
That's right, you all (one person so far) indulged me, now you gotta deal with me
So, right off the bat, this thing doesn't have a name. Nor can I seem to find their reference? But I have drawings. So stay tuned to see those
I haven't actually figured out how to squirm them into the story by any means so haha. WHOOPS
But I can tell you the ideas so far
I wanted their role to sort of be something in between Jasper and Rachel? Basically being a "ends up being seen as a protoge for both Jekyll and Hyde for different reasons"
While initially a little too innocent-seeming for Hyde's trouble-making, they eventually find a much-needed freedom if they somehow convince him to bring them along
On the other hand, they like Jekyll, but they find his way of speaking to be *too* rehearsed, and eventually can't tell if he's just Like That or if he's keeping them at arms length
I like to think they'd get closer to him by convincing him to be a bit more laid back (when possible) through a very gutting sequence where he sees them starting to mirror him and thinks he's made a good influence on them,
But through conversations with Hyde, they mention that while they do look up to him, they're actually just copying Jekyll's more posh demeanor because they feel *ashamed* of being more rough around the edges when he's there
So Jekyll starts to ease up so that they see him as less of a cold-hearted-ever-shaming asshole (exaggeration, of course. Maybe Hyde's words)
Now. If that wasn't self-indulgent enough for ya, STRAP IN, because this is where even I get a little embarrassed sharing it because of how much it is
At some point or another, I like the idea of Hyde going into a sort of spiral?
Because instead of trying to stop his chaos for safety's sake, like Rachel, or trying to stop him for goodness' (and also safety's) sake, like Jekyll,
They don't try to stop him *at all.* Yet, still don't entirely agree with the amount of trouble he causes.
And something something, this contradiction perplexes him so strongly he starts to go into a sort of "if IM darkness eternal then what is that thing. Why is it so nice. How can it be so nice while not being evil with me. Is it an angel or some shit" and goes a little mad while Jekyll desperately pleads for him to take a breath
Alright art
I present to you One Drawing That's Actually The Book-Jekyll-And-Hyde Version of this OC, two instances of Hey I Discovered Scottish Dancing, and one of Oops Jekyll's A Dad (doubles as a style study of the comic via photobashing for the lineart/sketch, and a lot of shading layers)
Almost all of these were from when I was VERY early into the comic so if it looks silly.. pretend you don't see it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also Hyde on his little streak of madness

oh my GOD the latest sw au comic is incredible holy shit, this au is so so dear to my heart for many reasons, both personal and artistic/writing appreciation, i am SO invested and you are doing SUCH a great job, i love your art style and i also love your writing and your use of astarions scars as a tattoo, and its such a good idea having the tattoo get infected!!!! as someone in the replies said, you went exactly as hard as is needed for this topic, youre doing a wonderful job and its amazing to see and to read, thank you for posting your work!!!!
also poor astarion omg, dudes goin THROUGH it but im glad halsins got him now! hopefully now he gets a good ol hospital trip, a soft comfortable and safe place to rest, a bunch of iv antibiotics and painkillers, and halsin is by his side the whole time he recovers... and hopefully that tattoo comes back round to destroy cazador, its gotta be able to be traced back to the bastard right!?
i especially love the last pannel though, ive always loved how you draw people holding and cradling each other, its beautiful and so realistic to how bodies are shaped and how bodies interact when in contact, and its totally perfect for all the emotions in the comic!!!!
this is a huge ramble haha no need to respond if youd rather not of course, but had to get the appreciation out!!
this seriously rocks, i love the sw au its so well done and i always ADORE seeing updates!!!! love your art and i hope you have a wonderful day/night :D
Ah I may cry thank you very much! Yes, I promise only good things from now on :').
Honestly I don't know about revenge on cazador! In game he Needs Astarion for the ritual so tracks him down...but in this situation he doesn't need him, he used threats to keep him under control but I don't think he would go to another city to search. I also think it's more realistic, traffickers lose their grip on people who actually get out, and find new people who are easier to control. Its also like...I made it easier than it often would be, because I didn't want to write drugs into an AU, but often that's a big factor in being trapped- dealer+employer+protector all rolled into one grim bundle.
ANYWAY thank you for the lovely words <3

Recalled updated! Okay okay okay im very excited about this lets gooooo!
HI!
How are yall doing? I've been freed, (then I got sick haha.) We are back with the final part of Directionless and we find the main group inside Hyrule castle trying to figure out what to do next.
With some shenanigans along the way.
Okay, time for the important things! Recalled and all panels belong to @recalled11 and its wonderful artist @l3ominor. Go check it out!
You can find the comic page here!
Now, it is time for snacks and drinks, Let's do this! :D
Tumblr media
Backgrounds my beloved, you get so much story telling from just this one shot it's great.
MAlon and Time and helping Wild gather information, Sky is resting his leg while flower and Sun discuss something.
Tumblr media
Hmm, Sky's looking very serious right now. What's on your mind blorbo?
Tumblr media
Look at him run. I love him.
Tumblr media
Yoink.
This makes me chuckle. I love when we get Wild shenanigans.
Tumblr media
I love how casual he is about this. But I'm gonna note something here.
Tumblr media
The orange glow of what I assume is ultrahand. Which would be it, If this next panel didn't exist.
Tumblr media
Wild's eye is glowing orange. The eye which changes colour when he's looking at the orb.
So Wild's eye changes colour based on what ability he is using.
Tumblr media
Confusion and joy.
Like ust look at these guys
Tumblr media
These two are just cackling at Time's expense. And Wild's shenanigans and I totally agree.
Tumblr media
The man is still holding his hands out like he's still holding the books.
Tumblr media
Flower's little pen for her pura pad. I love it. I can only assume She's got a little diagram on her screen which is just chaos
Tumblr media
What's on the paper captain? I hope you didn't tear it out of your book.
I wonder if it's a group drawing of the war heroes looking at a reference picture while trying to find information would make sense. Depending on the length of time it's been since he was fighting that war.
Tumblr media
Hiding something are we captain?
I reckon he's trying to figure out just who Time is. And has dug out a picture from the war. (Im unsure, do we get Big Brother Captain? Because I live for Big Brother Captain)
Tumblr media
interesting we get symbols for these heroes.
Tumblr media
What's the problem Time? Are you looking at someone who you recognise and now he's mentioned your hero title you dont want to talk about it?
Look at Malon, She's like 'You have gotta tell him.'
And Captain looks sad about it. Which tells me that he knows and that he's waiting for Time to approach him.
Tumblr media
Thats interesting. We know we get Midna as a companion in Hyrule Warriors. And I assume that Fi mentioned Sky at one point.
I sense some Angst in our future.
Sun putting her hand on Sky's shoulder like that gives me life. i love these two a healthy amount okay.
Also these backgrounds are pretty, I love the triangle behind Sun and Sky here. Thats' Wisdom On the triforce (If observed on the left hand). And considering that sun is in the centre of the frame. I find this interesting. Maybe because they are learning a lot of information right now?
Tumblr media
Okay, so you may be wondering who says this line on the left here. I was too. I reckon it's Sky. As a shock response to being mentioned by Captain.
Mainly because From the angle of the speech bubble and the location of the heroes in relation to Wild, it only gives a few heroes. Mainly Sky and Sun.
Sky asking this makes sense as he and sun are the newest to the group at this point.
Okay now its the time for the big one'
Tumblr media
The orb. (Or compass,)
I've taken the time to translate the words I can identify and have extrapolated the rest of them from there. The language is Sheika, and most of these words are what (From what I understand) Is what Wild himself identifies each hero as.
So we have, (Rapid fire style)
Tumblr media
Hero of Wind
Hero of Spriits
Tumblr media
Hero of Sky
Tumblr media
Hero of Time
Tumblr media
Captain
Tumblr media
Me
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
These all say, Unknown.
A little more on this as well.
Tumblr media
This circle around this orange arrow. I believe this is the arrow that Wild has chosen for them to approach. Orange if I had to give you a guess is Twilight's colour. Mainly from this bit before.
Tumblr media
Backgrounds give a lot of information by themselves. This looks like a Twili portal.
The reason Wild chose that is unknown to me. During one of his adventures, he encountered Wolfie. So it makes sense. Maybe he was able to identify his name as Twilight. Or called the wolf that himself.
I suppose the next arc will give us more information!
Tumblr media
Woo! Adventure time! :D
Okay, thats enough of me rambling.
Thanks for hanging out with me today! I love this comic so it's always a pleasure to write these!
:D
Now I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Yay it's done!!! This was so fun to do, and really pushed me to work on my lineart in a way I haven't had to before and also grayscale shading. I read this scene and....immediately wanted to draw it. So....I did!!
A sweet little scene from the amazing fic Asagohan no Aru Seibutsu (Still Life with Breakfast) by @russenoire!! Sorry I couldn't get the ceiling-high skewers I tried and it....looked like a wacky haystack. SO you can imagine that there is a HUGE stack of sticks behind the bowls. Also chairs are hard to draw so they are just ~shapes~ haha
Here is the scene (it is helpful to understand the comic). Also just like, go read the whole fic!! It is fantastic!!
‘I mean, what do you do with your ESP these days?’
‘Mmmmm…’ Teruki runs a hand through his hair, scratches the back of his head. ‘I still get asked to do exorcisms sometimes. I don’t love it, but I’m happy to help. Besides that… I don’t have any natural enemies anymore? At least I hope not.’ A wry chuckle. ‘Though some of those techniques I learned as a kid are still fun to play with. Just gotta make sure I don’t set anyone’s car on fire…’
If his inward smile at that is visible on his lips, he’s glad for it. Don’t ever change, Teru. ‘I wanna ask what you’re doing that might involve arson, but… yeah, I probably shouldn’t.’
Teruki leans in across the table anyway, eyes wide and ominous, his mouth pressed into a tight line, and lays a single dark word in his ear. ‘Barbecue.’ Teruki’s face right now. He—he can’t… That’s it; he’s done. A single wheeze breaches his lungs and heaves over them both in spasms of noisy joy, clashing merrily with Teruki’s own hearty squeals just as the server returns with their drinks. Teruki’s so far gone he can’t even speak; he raises a hand mid-howl and nods a thanks somewhere in the man’s general direction.

Hope you enjoy, russenoire!! I am so lucky to have met you through mp100!! You are amazing, and your writings are phenomenal!

What are some of your inspirations for character designs and the overall world? Some are very clear such as: Madcom, Adventure Time, All Tomorrows, and The Thief and the Cobbler. I would love to know more about the development and evolution of your ocs :]
get ready your yapping ears XDD
they're all a merge of a bajillion inspirations and original ideas, i gotta credit tvtropes.org for pretty much being the source of every story's ideas haha. was a big fan of taking existing cliches and adding a few what ifs next to it as a basis
(this world is basically just earth but what if plastics are alive and treated life like pollution XD 😭😭😭👍 )
anyway it ruined my life, highly recommend. i can list the tropes i took inspiration from, but i don't want to stray away from the question too much
i'll give the main media inspirations that you haven't mentioned, mostly will be uneths cuz its the most developed
though ironically, I wasn't all too inspired by all tomorrows 🙃 i was already a fan of grotesque designs and human sub-species before discovering it haha
unethical spite
polaroid's design doesn't come from anywhere, generic good guy? lol
i really liked the idea of silhouettes being the main design (where brush strokes within the body disappears instead of defined). i don't always go by that rule though 👩‍🦽
his personality mainly comes from bunny in boo bunny plague, from how he talks to his actual voice (pol even plays music in regards to the same genre LMAO)
its a mediocre game with a strange story but it holds sentimentality XDD the music slaps though, listen to this
for some reason the ost isn't in youtube, soundcloud or spotify. too underrated i guess. you can ask me for the full soundtrack plus a secret lil comic they got made. im a boo bunny fan i dont care if the story is generic, bunny is polaroid's true parent 😭😭😭
a few others is karl from law of talos (a popular deviantart oc tournament story animated by unknown person. i had a little baby dream of participating one day but i'll probably let everyone kill my characters easily XDDD wish those events came back tho),
shrike by zeurel (now a series named monkey wrench, but originally inspired by the older version called civil war: down to earth. you can still watch the reupload),
and dagur from how to train your dragon series i mean seriously this motherfucker is insane look at him
youtube
and also baldur from god of war 4 man i love insane mfs
he was already loosely south american but my friend gatu convinced me to make him peruvian because of how much things were similar XD i didn't mean it but cool i guess!!! win win
his human design doesn't have much but his ears were very specifically inspired from jumba (lilo and stitch) LOLOL - originally for the pirate au but pol with normal ears uneased me too much so i made it part of canon (and also grub already has similar ears so 🗣️🗣️🗣️) shhhhh they mesmerised me, i could not stop drawing them 😭👊
extra btw, pirate au is inspired by treasure planet 😱
ui's design actually first came from limbo (game by playdead which also inspired,,, well. limbo 👹👹👹 not enough black and white ideas in general 😔)
his shapeshifting ability was originally inspired from generator rex (and eventually akira when i kept hearing it was the inspiration lol). then evangelion, the angels were my favourite to watch XD ramiel best girl real
slowly he's evolved to be inspired by ???% from mob psycho 100, to auditor along with his role being the (false) villain, then to giygas from earthbound (spoilers) which is why he got very big and swirly(?)
i started to lean more on him being those generic sleep paralysis demons or dark lords. because he is one
a few notable mentions for his personality is gunny from boo bunny, and samurai jack. he used to be fully non verbal while polaroid is the talkative one haha
i had a time i was inspired to use music symbols, and this symbol was what fit ui the most (bass clef)
Tumblr media
now you can't unsee him too 🤣🤣🤣
his parent arc is inspired from you are umasou (japanese dino movie), nani (lilo and stitch) and god of war 4 (kratos' new voice is the true god 🤼‍♀️🤼‍♀️🤼‍♀️), there's a pretty obscure webcomic by bogleech called awful hospital where the main character (fern) is trying to find her son- another big inspiration
his "goldfish" design is inspired by bloody bunny (semi spoilers, when the sister turns into a monster form), the spaceship from a pilot film called starship goldfish (hence the name pff, i'll wait till the day i die for this series), and a scene in kaiba (2008) where the main character turned into a giant white hippo plushie lol
small warning for kaiba, it looks cartoony but has adult themes. actually many things i shared here has pretty adult themes lmaoekakejdioajdidj
shi xuan used to be my first sona XD obviously all the bad stuff was going to her (spared him by killing her honestly)
he's based on toon link (legend of zelda wind waker), then slowly inspired by lilo (lilo and stitch). looks a lot like frisk from undertale but ironically never inspired XD more on foreigners calling me asian eyes(??)
then umasou (you are umasou), the lost (binding of isaac), and eventually i settled with her being a "pontianak" which is the malay/indonesian name for that popular horror of a woman wearing a long white dress with long hair
i remember he's vaguely supposed to be a living corpse named "pocong" in my language but that idea was scrapped and the body is separated to belong to another dead kid. might get back to that idea one day
his personality is mostly based on a general nihilistic optimist mindset, i have her act a bit more similar to polaroid which got ui bond with her easier. and also why polaroid most likely doesn't like how much she reminds him of himself haha (but if they take the time to bond, he'll like her. in aus only 👹)
benoît is full on just the 1337 agent with a bit of the boy from inside (playdead). he's more based on general tropes of being the villain's goon but put more personality (and not actually being assigned the job XDDDDDDDDD) so he has a lot more original ideas to play with
unrelated but my name mama boy (or motherly boy) came from the fact that i called the boy from inside that purely because of that one moment he met some baby chickens XD a boy who is motherly. for like 1 minute before lauching them to push a box off the ceiling 🤷‍♀️
the hivemind idea from madcom version originated from inside too
initially i wanted him to be an unseen announcer/narrator like from stanley parable who's less demanding. this was before he got his own design, i could do more with that idea maybe
lauren used to be an entirely cartoon turtle and one of the oldest characters made. im a turtle person so obviously i drew turtle characters with those generic mary sue designs lol
eventually he turned more and more into an angel and i thought why not just make him biblically accurate and turned him into a turtle fetus 💐
meow too started out that way, originally named talo (she still has many names like porlivium but talo is scrapped) and was more leaning on the trope where turtles always had cities on their backs as they move
main inspiration design is that rock from kangaroo island, the other parts of the design is just my own ideas. i liked shadow of the colossus a lot so she was inspired from that world
her main idea is the calling countries a she or he. this was soon inspired to be what all respawns are, being objects with genders even though it doesn't really make sense lol. singapore is called she a lot in her birthday/national day 💃
nowadays meow's starting to become a beetle than turtle, and decided what's the funniest personality i could put on a living piece of the entire world's land? mean girl 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
she used to be bigger than woe and where you look at the sky, she stares back with a more visible massive eye (before she got turned into a cyborg). this idea was scrapped
she soon took the place of ben's role of narrator, though this is more involved on the backrooms saga
high up the chimneys
grub and bee is obviously the thief and the cobbler XD other than that, inspired from bees and mosquitoes, their own professions' outfits plus general contids and porlivean designs and that's kinda it
grub is a take on the trope of the grumpy neighbour next door. except he's shamelessly annoying for no reason, everywhere and you can't escape him. just like mosquitoes XD
bee too is a take on the trope of a goody two shoes that's too much of an optimist. since he's a bee, i made him short tempered and full of ptsd
dr tea was inspired by karl too, but later toned down to just becoming a normal bartender. with a twist of him venting to the drunk people instead of people venting to him BHAHA
syiara (sugar) is a big work in progress, but her uniform design is based on a cockroach lol
coyote is kinda obvious in being inspired by the ending of inside (ifyouknowyouknow)
time to die!
you got the gist of it XD it's pretty much just adventure time but if finn is a psychopath (kinda offset this where he's not that violent anymore, but he's still a psychopath)
pablo aside from finn is also inspired by shrike (hence he uses the orange suit), and found out that finn also uses orange for his pajamas so that's a nice coincidence XD
clyde is jake but design-wise is directly the ship from the season (spoilers) where finn finds the other humans
kiki is literally baby from civil war (with shrike) lmao. sad hes gone though, unless he's hidden in monkey wrench and will be introduced later
carl is.... karl XD 😭 though his idea was from a space dandy episode, if i remember there was an alien species that turns into another character and pretends to be them (the name meow is also taken here but her personality isnt based on the character)
also one reference i kept mentioning is the "my style!!!" quote belonging from adventure time xD forgot which episode. finn got shaved and exclaimed that lol
loop fracture
ken is based off both limbo and inside by playdead, is more a trope of the generic isekai (reversed) protagonist kid but i made him feral 👹
peep is based trico from the last guardian. notable mention (not an inspiration but VERY similar design i found XD) is anna from my daemon. honestly i was shook at this, even had a character that looked like ui and ISNT a villain without reason? ✋ goodbye my originality, i stole from it all along (jkjk
flight or fight
lil' venango is based off a mix of little red riding hood and death. she's mostly inspired by a song called me and mr wolf xD
(the wolf meant to be coyote, whom is to be eaten by venango)
youtube
the world overall is mainly inspired by kaiba (2008), here and there inspired by nevada (madcom), a bunch of studio ghibli movies lol, A PLETHORA of animation student films (notably gobelins, animation workshop, etc) with some usual (+ experimental) animation films independent from schools, and lots of real life places
im sure theres more inspirations i forget to mention, but i've yapped more than enough of the quota for today and my brain has exploded BYE BYE

mm lrb (last reblog? is that a thing haha) and just its not the same but the assumption that im not doing anything with my life/time bc im not dating and not going "out" is rly stupid
my coworker didnt mean anything by it but his shock abt me not dating anyone and alao that bc im a homebody, im not doing much..... like no i make games, i draw, i craft, i write, my 3 journals take up plenty of time too.. also i go to downtown toronto somwtimes for stationary stuff LOL im tired from working but i got plenty of shit im doing
like currebtly:
• finished domino club game jam thus resting
• i have likr 25 linoprints where i gotta print layer 2 (winter holiday cards bc snailmail is great)
• im back to sorting my dolls for ebay and after that, i am finally going to organize my 3 display cases
• as always, 2 out of 3 planner/journals, take up at least 2-3 hrs a week as i write the daily pages from my phone notes
• i would like to go to the park more, i wish i had energy to walk and draw again but i just go to the playground swings for my mental health occationally now 😔
• i am reading so many danmei novels like one after another.. balancing my time between reading and doing other things is a careful balance
• winter holiday gifts are on my mind.. one has been ordered but many more to figure out..
idk like theres comics to read too and games to play, and books to read, and so much art supplies i shud fucking use one of these days.. need to get back into watercolours lol.....
my life isnt worse or more boring due to me not dating or staying home/close to home....
i've literally gone to place in toronto where u can be nude and see ppl getting it on and put on the "not interested" bracelet and fell in love with not giving a fuck abt my own nudity levels and falling in love with the heated pool...... holy shit is it nice to just wear swimsuit bottoms and a swim shirt without a bikini top lmao the fucking best (i have been nude but i also am a weirdo who does like the feel of clothes and like i cant live without socks when not in bed, and underwear is a helper in controlling my bladder feelings, and then i just love an oversized tshirt ok it feels good but also im chill to be tits out)
idk theres just something great abt knowing that sure i might be squemish to ever try sex and sure im aroace something, and i dont think im gotta end up actually dating anyone but fingers crossed i guess? but also yeah i masturbate, i've been nude in nudist place, i've sent nudes before tho not sexy chat lol i draw porn, i have a lot of distressed anime girl porn on my phone what of it, im an adult and im happy* living my life and frankly i dont see how dating would even work for me when i want to be reading bl half my waking hours... i just need to hang out with friends more
oh also coworker was like "ur 23, right?" and im just oh buddy haha
*i mean mild? depression but we ignore it bc we are only truly depressed when thinking bad thoughts or like the future or anything, ok fine i still feel like its fake but we cant ignore that i did try antidepresants and also did get close to vague suicide thoughts but like im fine, i got planners and stickers and weekly bubble tea ok

I’ve been gone for so long but I have so much to say and idk how to say it so please be prepared for an absolute mess of an ask lol
First, I just really wanna give appreciation for Super Emeralds (The comic creator) and their dedication to THOAM. I’ve been on Tumblr for just a little more than a year at this point, and I only joined in the first place because of this comic. I got into it way back in… What was it, 2020?? 2021? And I fell in love immediately with the concept! Sonic feeling insecure about his new Werehog form? Chip being an active member of the team and a great friend?? TEAM DARK??? SONADOW DONE RIGHT?????????? Ohohoho! You can bet I was completely on board! I tried my best to comment on every page, because I just love giving positive feedback for things I enjoy, and took note of how Super Emeralds evolved their style as the years went on. I wasn’t there during the beginning, and I really wish I was, but the time I’ve spent following this fun little comic has made me feel so much appreciation not just for Super Emeralds as a person, but for the entire Sonic art community as a whole! Art is a creative endeavor, a passionate career, and sometimes it’s really hard to just. Draw. Comics are especially hard as I’ve discovered. So just… Good job to Super Emeralds for sticking around all these years and for giving us such an incredibly thought out and beloved series. And thank you.
ALRIGHT ENOUGH OF THAT MUSHY GUSHY STUFF AND LET’S TALK ABOUT THE BLUE BOY HIMSELF THAT IS NOW NO LONGER JUST BLUE MUAHAHAHAHASHEHEHEKEFHEOFHFFPWEHFLFHD
I’ve been a bit absent from Tumblr for the last few weeks due to sickness and lack of interest so I am undoubtedly missing a page or two from the equation but OH MY GOSH. POOR SONIC. Bro wakes up from like a 2-day long nap and the first thing he sees is his little brother screaming in his face at 3AM. He’s so confused haha! I noticed he isn’t as insecure or he isn’t really freaking out as much as I assumed he would way back during the exposition pages. This is obviously due to the confusion and whiplash after waking up as his “Normal” self again, but I feel like it’s just him putting on another fascade around his friends. To an extent, at least. He isn’t aware of the new pink markings all over his body and he isn’t aware of just how worried all his friends were. All he knows is that they know about his new form and they for some reason aren’t acting weird about it, so he’s likely just playing along to make sure nobody gets overly concerned. It just seems like something he’d do. Or maybe I’m just grasping at the angst straws, idk.
OMEGA IS FIXED BY THE WAY I DO NOT WISH TO GLOSS OVER THAT FACT. THE BOY IS BACK!! THE ROBO BOYO IS BACK!!! I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE ALL THE CRIMES HE’LL BE ABLE TO COMMIT ONCE TAILS GETS THOSE ROCKET LAUNCHERS WORKING AGAIN HEHEHEEE
Also let’s not gloss over how Omega doesn’t care that Sonic mauled him to death. Let’s not gloss over the fact that Omega clearly cares for the others because of his ignorance to Sonic’s rampage.
Yeah if you couldn’t already tell I’m a sucker for this kinda stuff-
Uhhhhh I don’t really have much else to say, honestly. Maybe I will later, but right now I’m on a time crunch so I gotta keep this all pretty concise. Thank you so so much for reading all the way through, I know this was a really really long one. And again, thanks to Super Emeralds for being able to last this long and not losing motivation for the comic. I know I would’ve given up after just 5 pages! (I actually tried to make a comic of sorts and I literally gave up after 5 pages I am not kidding.)
Aight I gotta go now bye bye!! 👋
ur gonna have a field day in 2-3 weeks depending on when u decide to go on rampage haha

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next up on the Doodle Dump: some comic/image concept drawings! This is how a lot of my comics start off as well - just bare bone characters and the text I want. I usually add all the details in after I snap a photo and stick it on my ipad, doing a second 'sketch' over these first ones.
Most of these I still hope to complete at some point, when I can muster the energy to do so.
Text under the cut:
First image, upper left:
1. (Columbo speaking) "Oh wow! You guys also know the actress who plays Query?? I'll have to tell Bennie - she says she's impossible to spend time w/ cuz she vanishes after rehearsals!" //text under that is a note to myself about the dialogue "needs to relate to finding Renee and not knowing their the same person... or something//
2. (Columbo speaking) "I gotta go find her (Bennie) now!" //text under the image: *Has no idea Query and Renee are the same person**//
3. (Cy yelling) "YOU HAVEN'T TOLD HIM??" // (Flint, angrily signing) "YOU'RE NOT MY MOM GET OFF MY BACK"
---
Second image, upper right - the second comic under the line. Each image is supposed to be Cy, holding one of Flint's guns:
1. BANG BANG BANG CLICK - (indicating the gun ran out of ammo)
2. CLICK CLICK
3. Checks cartridge - empty
4. Throws the gun
---
Third image, lower left, continuing the comic from the scene listed above:
5 (Flint, pissed off and crouching behind a wall with his other gun out, signing to Cy) "DID YOU JUST THROW MY GUN!?"
(Cy - unphased by this) "Yeah? So? It was out of ammo."
(Flint) YOU BITCH
Under that comic is a concept for a group image, with Deckland serving ice cream to Lotti, Blossom [whose covered already in ice cream somehow] and Flint, trying to wipe the ice cream off of Blossom's fish bowl. I have no idea what the bg will be, but I do know I want Deckland's weapon, a spring loaded "gun" with a boxing glove at the end of it, seen.
----
Fourth image, lower right, all in blue ink.
The first part labeled 9 was the last concept image for the comic in which Flint scares Lotti with his flames. After that they're all concepts for a bunch of photos for one of the asks I got forever ago in which Flint was asked if he likes kids. The answer, clearly, is yes, as he has hundreds of photos of mostly Blossom, but also some other kids he knows in the area haha. He just likes his 'niece' the most.

Piss-related questions
I could have named this post “latest comic related questions” or “toilet related questions” or even “urinating habits related questions” (piss headcanons??), but I just know I’ll never get an opportunity to name anything “piss-related questions” ever in my life again, so I’ll indulge myself this time.
But yeah, if you sent me an ask about our latest comic, I’ll reply to you here!
But first I want to mention that I’m super happy with how much you liked it. We had a completely shit-posting discussion about everything that’s going on in this comic after another piss-related comic we posted some time ago, so it’s kind of a sequel to that. I honestly thought that we wouldn’t do anything with it, because we, as always, have too much other stuff to draw, but we were having a really bad day and making a stupid comic felt like the only thing that was meant to happen that day (and I was emotionally incapable of drawing anything good).
We love making stupid stuff. And it’s always fun when other people find it funny lol
Alright, let’s boogie
Anonymous asked:
They literally just went to the comfort room just while Idia about to go his business XD. Also imagine that Azul, Jade, and Floyd only doing it because they are in the ocean and who knows where they did it. I feel like Ortho is glad he doesn't have to experience this problem from them given how insane they are doing it. Ruggie make sense given his environment.
Ortho really told Idia’s bottle-pissing secret to the worst people possible, the entire school knew about it after just 2 minutes lol Normally they would keep a secret to use it as blackmail, but the Tweels found it way too hilarious, and Azul found it way too scandalous to ignore…
Jade and Floyd really are kind of chaotic because of their oceanic background, but Azul really tries to be a proper good land-boy!
I want to make a joke about Savanaclaw boys having interesting habits in general, but I’ll stop myself.
And Ortho, well… he really is glad, he recorded a lot of useful data that day. Unfortunately. 😔
marisunnycest asked:
i love how vil's art style become simpler as he utters shameful, it really describe a deep feeling of i can't believe that guy is a house warden while pissing on bottles
Yessss lol Vil is SO DISAPPOINTED… He really felt powerless for a moment there.
Anonymous asked:
THE SINK?? JADE???
Wink wink
And the best thing? Everyone is going to think that it was Floyd who did it.
Anonymous asked:
I gotta know now....did Silver take after his father's unique bathroom philosophy....are Sebek and Malleus too prim for the shower....
Stay strong, Anon, I’m here, I’m with you.
Unfortunately, it’s very likely that Silver shares his father’s unique bathroom philosophy, as much as a lot of other things in life… He probably used to have an outhouse when he lived in the forest though, but then again, he also had the entire forest. “Remember, Silver, the world is your urinal” – Lilia Mufasa Vanrouge, possibly.
But Silver also doesn’t like it when Lilia pees in bottles. This just doesn’t feel right, so he’ll likely try to discipline his father about this…
Sebek has parents that taught him good manners though, so he would never… admit to it, but he does pee in the shower sometimes. But he’d be super ashamed to admit it.
Malleus doesn’t do it in the shower, and he is aware of Lilia’s philosophy. Just another Lilia-related thing for him to sigh about…
Anonymous asked:
The toilet/shower/(sink?!) comic is a lot haha! But now I wonder if Kalim uses the toilet, the shower or Jamil-? (Forgive me Jamil for making your life more miserable in my head)
I’m sorry, Anon! But also, thanks, I’m happy! lol
I see what you did there, and I wink back at you because yes, Jamil is a very nice alternative indeed. I’m not even sure if this is a kinky scenario or a completely cursed one… either could work terrifyingly well with these two lol
To answer your question, Kalim, surprisingly, uses the toilet. He doesn’t think twice about these things, this is just what he is used to! He is also a little bit squeamish sometimes at very random moments.
But then again, he has his own golden urinal in his dorm, of course he’s going to use it.
I actually drew Kalim-Jamil comic about this exact topic today…
Anonymous asked:
This question keeps haunting me ever since I saw your latest comic so here we go: where the heck does Lilia pee? (somehow I'm both curious and scared of the answer lol)
Anywhere and everywhere he finds convenient, Anon~ We’ll never know the full list, and this is truly for the best.
But he does share Idia’s habit of pissing in bottles and cans when he’s too busy or lazy. And if you try to address that, he’ll just say that he is used to way worse and that kids these days are way too precious about these things.
One person in our twitter comments also hinted that Lilia uses Idia and... yes
Anonymous asked:
real talk though, "sink" is such a valid answer. hear me out
I knew it. I knew we would find at least one person who would use a sink lol
Well, sink is just a very tall bidet… in a way… if you squint…

for the gravity falls ask game: 2, 14, 16, and 28 :3c
Hey sorry it took me so long to get to this!!!!
2-what’s your favorite episode?
I gotta go with a tale of two Stans. I know that’s a popular choice, but it was such a HUGE payoff from years of theorising about Stan’s twin brother. It was so cathartic to be proven right. And it also completely re contextualizas Stan’s entire character. The entire time you think that’s he’s just a run of the mill con man, money and self obsessive. But then ACTUALLY TURNS OUT he was a con man out of necessity for survival because he got KICKED OUT OF HIS HOUSE AT 17. And then he did it because he LOVES HIS BROTHER and he would do ANYTHING to get him back. It was never about the money. Like you rewatch the show after this episode and suddenly you see Stanley in a completely different light. I’ve never seen an episode do that to a character so effectively.
14- do you have any favorite artists/writers/creators in the fandom?
YES OH MY GOD. So gravity falls was my first ever serious fandom, so I practically worshipped the fan artists. I thought they were the coolest people alive. Standouts were @kiki-kit and @imaginashon. I loved their style so much because somehow it was the gravity falls style but even softer and rounder. I think I owe a lot of my beginnings in drawing to the two of them. I also loved @demico-art (they made excellent comics) and at @cherryviolets. I was always MESMERISED by cherry’s art. It’s so beautiful and spacey. I’m saying past tense because I’m remembering how much they influenced me when I was discovering fandom, but they do still make art now and I still love them all just as much!!
16- are you more of a dipper or more of a mabel?
I’ve been told by many of my friends that I am a mabel 100%. I’m loud, kind (at least I like to think so) and just a silly little guy! I also always kind of interpreted mabel as a bit self deprecating. I know the fandom likes to characterise dipper as the unsure and self deprecating type, where as mabel is more egotistical. But I didn’t see it that way. I always saw her loud and boisterous nature as compensating a little for the parts of her she didn’t like or was insecure about. I think it’s shown several times how she is a bit down on herself that she’s not as “smart” as dipper- such as in “Little Dipper” and “dungeons dungeons and more dungeons”. This resonated with me because I also had a very naturally gifted and intelligent brother, and I often felt lesser as a result. Also her not wanting to hurt gideons feelings even though he was OBVIOUSLY bad news realllyyyyy resonated with me. Letting people walk all over me in the name of “kindness” is. Yeah. I also kinda looked like her when I first got into GF- wore lots of sweaters, braces, long brown hair, etc.
28- share a headcanon you like/have been thinking about a lot!
Hmmmm head canon head canon. Well I do think a head canon I always liked (which the fandom is REALLY running with now to my absolute delight) was that ford and fiddleford had something going on. There wasn’t a lot of evidence at the time, mostly because we only see them briefly interact in the show (I think that the journals and book of bill give it a little more credibility) but I thought the fact that fiddleford dropped his entire life to go help ford with his project was…. Strange haha. Also ford being an outsider and shunned for his “strangeness”felt a little bit like it could be a gay allegory.
Sorry these ended up being so long!!!! I have so many thoughts!!!! Thanks for the questions.

You got any drawing requests? Sfw or nsfw? I’m kinda bored
if i'm reading this right and you mean have I got any requests for you to draw - yeah! i'm just gonna drop a handful and you can pick whichever catches your eye the hardest, i'll go gaga over any of them lol.
If you mean - do I have my drawing requests open and will draw you something - not right htis second, I'm working on the commission grind for the next couple days now that I've got my ability to focus back haha.
ok ideas;
Drag Strip and Wildrider fighting over a TV remote, but like real-deal, blood-flowing, armor-ripping, fingers-in-eyes-and-biting nasty fighting. optionally the other Stunticons can be sitting in the background completely disinterested in any of this because it's so normal. If you go this route feel free to make it as lazy and/or comical as you like, I imagine this is like an average tuesday afternoon for them - Drag Strip just hates losing at anything, "the control of the tv" included, and Wildrider has no sense of limits in my brain LMFAO it's not like either of them are really suffering for this in spite of the whole. nastiness of the fight
motormaster dying in a glue trap a la that one meme
Dead End drinking a Grimace shake going "i hope this kills me" with the most deadpan :/ expression possible
Breakdown and Dead End watching a random horror movie together, but Breakdown is like huddling under the blankets shaking in terror like a chihuahua and Dead End looks about two minutes from trying to fuck the villain, heart eyes and blush and horny grip on his thigh and everything
Wildrider biting clean through any assorted object that shouldn't be bitten through. Maybe he could be chewing up a stick of dynamite, I think that would be funny. Like it's a snack.
Dead End in like full suspension bondage with a blindfold on looking like he's either asleep or so relaxed he might as well be
Breakdown topping anyone bigger than he is in a completely unbothered and very skilled manner while whoever he's topping comes to absolute pieces. tiny shy dom supremacy. you understand
Motormaster fucking himself on a random non-sentient gun (probably someone else's) while moaning Megatron's name like the fucking loser he is. bonus points if it looks unsexy and like it doesn't even feel that good. because it is funny to me. you understand
wildrider sitting on a couch looking extremely normal but there's like a thought bubble and it's just "i need to eat pussy i need to eat pussy i need to eat pussy" repeating and filling the entire thing up while he's like. watching idk Nascar or Storage Wars or some other stupid shit
Vortex in bondage but being a giant brat about the whole thing so he keeps trying to get his hands free to jerk off but in the "neener neener i got my hands free, you gotta tie me up harder and punish me now" way
Dead End in a catgirl maid outfit but like in a sex way
Vortex and Swindle having weirdly competitive sex with like a ranking board in the background with all five Combaticons on it and Onslaught on top
ok that's probably plenty LMAO feel free to also mix and match or poke or w/e these until they're something more interesting if you're not really feeling what I'm giving you XD

Might be an odd question, and I'm sorry if it's already been asked, but how did you come up with your fursona?
Not odd at all!! But it's a long story hahah I gotta start from the very absolute beginning. Minor warning for a mention of animal death.
So the first one was an orange and white cat with an olive green trench coat, glowing neon green eyes, a red bandanna (pirate-style, not ninja-style), and they had 7 stripes on their tail. They happened sort of on accident because I was actually 12 years old and couldn't draw humans in a way I was satisfied with and just drew people with cat heads instead. Idk where I got that idea from, probably Thundercats or Swat Katz or something lol. Eventually this character evolved from being based on my actual cat, Toby, to being a character I used to represent myself, 7oby. This fursona is what I refer to as 7oby v.1. They had a sword too, Excalon, that made a blade of frozen ice that was powered by the radiation that my fursona absorbed. I wanted to write a comic with them at once point and had a whole setting and cast fleshed out but this was right around when I entered a very dark period and self-criticism kept it from ever happening.
Unfortunately, Toby, the cat 7oby v.1 was based on, passed away in early 2013. I was really close to this cat, we'd been through a lot together. Around this time I was kind of falling out with the idea of having a fursona too and Toby's death made drawing 7oby v.1 feel... depressing. I tried mixing up their design a little around this time and decided it would be best to just retire them entirely.
This led to 7oby v.2, which was an android with a powerplug tail and 4 motorcycle exhaust pipes on his head lol. I was going through a lot of identity changes around this time (2013-2014) and had a falling out with a friend where they called me a robot and I got a little spiteful about it. I still kind of like 7oby v.2's design but he was a pain in the ass to draw. He didn't last long.
In 2015 I started missing having an actual fursona. I'd gotten a little back into the fandom and having a fuzzy guy I could draw hanging out with my friends' fuzzy guys is a lot of fun. But I needed to design a fuzzy guy again. I didn't know what species to go with and I didn't want to go with a house cat again so I asked my biologist friend for ideas and he suggested a spotted hyena. This was around the time I started realizing I was probably trans so I thought female hyena biology was especially humorous. 7oby v.3 was to be a hyena.
7oby v.3 has gone through a lot of changes haha
7oby v.3 from 2015 through 2017 was just a normal spotted hyena.
From 2018 on he had a robotic endoskeleton like a Terminator and could also make super heated holographic claws and stuff.
In early 2019 I got REALLY into Legend of Zelda and Ganondorf and was like "7oby v.3 is going to be a hyena/boar hybrid now." He still had the Terminator skeleton and laser hands but now he had tusks too. I think this was around the time I gave him lightning/fire magic and decided to combine him with my art mascot, the Somnivagrant, too. Somni's a genderless, amorphous, eyeless, dream demon. It kind of looks like a white dog/wolf and has a sun orb between its ears. The Somnivagrant hitches a ride on my fursona (like a ghost) for fun.
2021 7oby v.3 (the last redesign I've done) is pretty much the same as 2019 but I cleaned up his general anatomy a little and brought back 7oby v.1's Excalon as a giant laser gunsword. Of course.
I think v.3 has gone through more changes than the other two because I've also changed an incredible amount between 2015 to now, but I think, too, that on some level I just don't entirely vibe with v.3. Like v.1 was absolutely me, v.2 was honestly just a stepping stone, and v.3's just kinda... I dunno. I think it might be time for v.4.
