There are weeks where nothing happens and weeks where years happen. This was the week of the latter. It was Monday, the sky was packed with dark clouds that would bring rain in a few hours.
In the city commonly called a concrete jungle, trees sprang up abruptly in the middle of the day. A dense canopy of trees, a jungle that rivaled even the buildings around it. The trees were large, if one hadn't been familiar with that fact that the city didn't have a forest, it would have felt natural.
The trees themselves looked as if they were over 1,000 years old, with trunks larger in width than four car tires put together and lengths that required craning your neck to even see halfway. It was impossible to see through them to the other side. Anyone who had been around the epicenter when the trees appeared hadn't been heard from. The forest seemed to block cellphone reception. Shining a light on the trees only revealed more inky darkness within them. Attempts to cut down or burn the trees resulted in the forest encroaching on the city further, expanding it's perimeter and threatening to swallow the rest of the city. If someone listened closely the trees seemed to be echoing the voices of those trapped inside. "Help me, help me, help me!"

They don’t even attempt to assassinate US politicians anymore. You notice that? Not since the anthrax scare back for… who was it, Barack? And even that… pathetic. This new generation has no respect for an honest hitman. I’m not sure this new generation has any honest hitman - you see that shit with Boeing? Sloppy, fucking disgraceful - you kill the whistleblowers before they get halfway to a lawsuit. What kind of fucking amateur is doing faked suicides the night before testimony? Goddamn greenhorns. Back in my day someone tried to shoot Ronald Reagan in broad daylight. There used to be bomb threats to Congress. I took out a few union leaders in the utilities sector myself. Today’s generation? Won’t even threaten to throw a punch - not even over on that - what’s it now, ‘X’? They got no guts. None! And they don’t even have poor impulse control to boot! Too much of that - that panopticon anxiety bullshit. “Oh what if I get a called out post???” People used to send the president letters full of bioweapons. In the mail! Today’s generation? Not a chance. All because of woke.

I don't know what I miss more, having free time to draw or these fellas
Tumblr media
The raven cycle!!!!
Oh I love these guys. Everything about these books, I want to draw them soooo much more (I probably will)!!
Guys I'm back-
It has been a nightmare lately this is the only thing I managed to draw in weeks? Finals and uni stuff that's taking all of my time and energy, slowly turning me into a cafeinated slug (worst part is caffeine doesn't even have an effect on me? I only drink coffee for the TASTE can you imagine). Anyway the rush won't be over until end of January but hopefully I'll be able to ignore the stress and draw anyway :)

Watching Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron again as an adult is so great because not only do you appreciate the nostalgia and joy of it, the stunning 2D animation mixed with early 3D techonology and well written tight story with a main character that never speaks.
But also you appreciate that the plot relies on horses, despite not being typical talking horses in cartoons, being extremely intelligent to the point that they are aware of their captivity and exploitation. And it involves a hyper intelligent horse dismantling (or, at the very least significantly delaying) American colonialism's expansion into the west.
This horse also very likely killed many colonialists when they were either launched at high speeds from his back, kicked in the head or blown up in a train explosion.
Good for him.

arthur: Is something wrong with you?
merlin: Yeah, I've been on a horse all day.
arthur: Is your little bottom sore?
merlin: Yes. It's not as fat as yours.
arthur: *chuckles* You know, you've got a lot of nerve for a wimp.
merlin: I may be a wimp, but at least I'm not a dollop head.
arthur: There's no such word.
merlin: It's idiomatic.
arthur: It's what??
merlin: You need to be more in touch with the people.
arthur: Describe dollop head.
merlin: In two words?
arthur: Yeah.
merlin: Prince arthur.

(awolnation voice) RUN
man. alright. let's assemble the thoughts. so last year I posted some jack illustrations, mostly about the giant killing and the beanstalk stuff. on and off since then I've been reading up on jack tales, folklore scholarship, etc. as one does. I also did a full re read of j.g. ballard's novels! that was mostly for myself, tbh, but the drowned giant remains an essential piece of inspiration and reference for this.
since then, I've work shopped the original idea and started hacking away at a plot. the initial idea is mostly the same: jack finds a giant, dead, and the story spirals out of his control. & now there's a king! kings make a semi frequent appearance in jack stories!
onward! jack can be considered a kind of trickster character, other times he's an everyman, but in some stories there's a kind of economic anxiety underneath them that's really fucking compelling.
