that which is king of all things, the perfect being
#*target theme starts playing*#I used to not be a massive fan of the safi design because it wasn't as batshit weird as xeno'jiiva but I've totally come around to it#the way the skin doesn't form scales like most mh dragons; the way its proportions try to hit both fatalis and alatreon and don't get eithe#the way its body looks charred at the edges and there's always light shining through somewhere#it feels like whatever the hell came down in the sapphire star meteor is trying to mimic what power looks like in the world of mh#but it's not a perfect imitation (if anything it's scarier)#so it winds up kind of uncanny and alien instead anyway. like it's still so clear this is like xeno; this dragon is WRONG#I just think it's cool as hell#my art#safi'jiiva#monster hunter#mhw iceborne

girlbossing too close to the sun.
#art#ive literally just been treating this game as a library simuator#i walk from bookseller to bookseller opening up all of their books#vivecs sermons are either a highlight or the point at which i stop reading#ive been trying to convince the ordinators that imitation is the highest form of flattery but it hasnt been working#let me wear your helmets please theyre so funny..#posting morrowind in 2024 isnt a cry for help but youre not wrong to be concerned.#morrowind#almalexia#vivec#im going to explain the chitin armor give me a moment#so the bonewalker nerevar on the shrines is adorable and it was only after drawing it however many times that i realized#it looked relatively close to a modified chitin armor#and so i modified chitin armor a few times and this was probably the cutest result#i also know i drew almalexia relatively pristine and untouched by years and vivec not so much but my thought process was#vivecs role as if not a favorite then the most accessible divine or the most “hands on” in a manner of speaking#acting in ways visible to the general population or actions explicitly brought to their attention#like not that almalexia isnt doing anything she is#but the dissemination of information regarding that is very different etc etc etc#anyways to a certain extent a god is the face on a shrine or in art or upon a statue or carving#but vivecs presence is interwoven with the geography of vvardenfell especially and his actions and writings with pubished materials#and the arts and culture and customs etc etc etc#so to me the face of a god you know and feel a commonality with or a god that walks alongside you is a face you would recognize#and vivec is already otherworldly looking enough#the simple mark of the years on his skin in some way grounding him in reality felt more right#that and i think the ways in which he and almalexia care about outward appearance are slightly different- they prioritize different things#and the ways they present outward power and their embodiment of their respective attributes share some similarities as they both have that#important preoccupation with physical power and physical strength to a certain degree#oh my god nobody read this i am yapping so bad.#tes

Unwell about the idea of Orin using Durge's face to keep the charade going of the Durge still being around, so Gortash doesn't get suspicious.
He does anyway because she didn't understand how real their relationship was - and she slips up. Often. He knew immediately when the Dark Urge became so, so very cold. Nothing like the warmth he has known for years now behind closed doors; because it isn't them.
She is good at fine details of the body; she gets every scar, every little blemish perfectly, but she can never truly imitate the person behind the Urge.
She couldn't have hoped to anyway, because she didn't know who they really were. Only Gortash could, because he is the first to ask.
It surprises her, and infuriates her, even! The mighty Dark Urge, debased into some lovesick puppy yearning after this little Lordling!
And the mistakes that follow are how Gortash learns the Dark Urge is gone.
#bg3#durgetash#I'm obsessed with the scene where she wears the player's face and it won't leave me like heLLO LARIAN?#I know it's a popular hc that Orin probably wore durge's face to taunt Gortash but I just think she probably did it to keep the charade up-#-until she took hold of everything. and gortash was going to be kept in the dark as long as possible until she could figure out what was-#-going to be inherited from her dear sibling!#I once again have to add I plan to write Orin wearing Veren's face to piss Ketheric off too lmfao. I wonder if the Netherbrain ever saw it-#-too honestly; just Orin parading her sibling's skin around while mocking him relentlessly. chef kiss#Gortash being mortified and then even worse when the REAL Durge walks back in but it's just like Orin again but worse.#Worse because it's really them this time#but there's no weak imitation. it's just. an empty shell.

guy liker moment
#a doodley#once again very difficult times for the has never been touched community#also recently some fictional men have me questioning things further and its making me sooo miserable#in the sense of like. it wouldnt be enough to t**** a beautiful man i want to be one. too.#i want someone to feel the same way ykwim. eager excited. witnessing beauty. crawling into each others skin.#i want you and i want to wear your face and be desired too.#ugh ugh ugh ugh#i probably wont ever even draw it but the lino piece i want to try making is based off of like. lately...#my skin burns when i see even the imitation of a human body. When i think of it. its so dire#or like i love the human body in general i love studying it bc its so beautiful and interesting no matter what#but i do studies and its like ahh i wanna get closer i wanna get closer im at the zoo i want to jump into the enclosure and get clawed apar#t. (saying this as metaphor bc obviously humans are not things to be owned) but i want my own model to pose and study#closer. and closer. look and touch and examine.#<- 3 seconds away from drawing nefarious shit with talon in this nature but i didnt say that#talkys#🌺

I feel like there is a decent chance that Bad isn't making the soul steal potions, but could instead be consuming the soul vulture hearts directly. He has made several comments about his colour change possibly being because of something he ate, and we haven't seen the potion at all I don't think even though Bad is carrying around soul hearts...
Being attacked by them, possibly consuming them or the potion, along with his physical changes... How cool would it be if qBad was trying to change himself so that he gained the soul steal buff as a natural trait, and the admins gave him the soul steal effect by default, if only a while... *^*
#Gaining the effect as a physical trait instead of the potion would also be a way to keep the potion safe#because he is not actually making it and thus the Federation cannot take the recipe and imitate it#Plus rule of cool asdfds it would be coooooooool#Let him have it for a tiny bit like at peak blueness until he starts feeling better and his old skin starts returning#If Etoiles gets an impenetrable shield Bad can get a buff pleaaaaaase admins it'd be so cooool#I honestly don't expect it to be a thing but it's a fun idea 😆#Like the code disguising as players idea from before~

I'm curious what people think about Victor and Eli's relationship during the Lockland Era. I'm of the opinion that Eli cared about Victor as a person more than Victor cared about him, which isn't to say I don't think Victor cared, but I think his care was a lot more focused on himself and how Eli made *him* feel. This isn't an analysis or anything, really. I don't have evidence from the books to back me. I'm just more sharing a headcannon than anything. If anyone has any thoughts on this please share them I'm curious
#its like#i feel like Victor saw Eli as a puzzle to be solved#he wanted his attention and companionship#but any actual worry or care he has for him is stuffed down so far it only surfaces when he thinks Eli might not come back#And Eli definitely has those moments of selfishness too#but he clearly cared a lot more about Victor's safety than Victor even cared for himself#his feelings are nowhere near entirely selfless but to me it felt like he had a lot more affection(?) for Victor before it all went to shit#which made him even more willing to kill Victor in the end#because in his mind the Victor he knew and loved was already dead#and whoever was left was just a crude imitation wearing his skin#and when that opinion gets called into question he doubles down on it#because he cant handle the idea that this is who Victor really is#or the fact that everything hes done was to his real friend#anyway thats just my take on it#let me know what you think#vengeful ve schwab#vicious ve schwab#victor vale#villains series#eli ever#eli cardale#evervale#vicious#vengeful

Wouldn't it be funny asf if chayanne refused to wake up and get outta bed I'd his dad's aren't there so it resulted into ppl having to wear philzas or missas mc skin to trick chayanne into think his dad's there with him so he'd get outta bed and do his egg quests lol
#qsmp#qsmp chayanne#qsmp philza#qsmp missa#i just thought itd be funny asf if cellbit were ro have to begrudgingly put on philzas skin n try to act like him#even tho he doesnt know phil will enough to imitate him#lol idk its just a funny image in me head

Now that I am back to office Monday to Friday, you will see less of me eating Vegetarian Rice (斋饭) as I am having breakfast and lunch in company’s canteen. This is what I had for brunch - spicy sambal mock squids, creamy sweet imitation pork ribs and braised fried bean curd skin with rice.

I think more people need to understand that I draw Tim just as a lil fucker scheming so much that I don't even have to do guidelines anymore, it's a curse, someone shoot me and end my misery
#i also draw bart and kon as just no thought head empty probably more then i should#i would say tim has the brain cell but lets be real#tim drake#red robin#if i ever stop talking about tim drake kill me#that isn't me#I've been replaced#someone stole my skin and is poorly imitating me

i…………………………… tried………………………………..
#this is vee speaking#suffered drawing him on model because brain doesn’t work like that#suffered drawing him in my style because it’s noticeably different and brain gets happy happy when things matchy matchy lol#everything in my kuukou is me trying to make him fun to draw because his hair is my least favourite hairstyle to draw in all of anime#his eyebrows???? i was having issues making his eyebrows arch so i sectioned them off and it’s stuck tho i don’t need it anymore lol#his skin tone???? a remnant from when i used to give him warmer tones and decided to embrace(?) how pink he is lol#the shadow colour i used to use was like a hot pink and i desaturated it since it was clashing with the way i colour#(skill issue tho lol)#a lower collar line?????? wacked priorities lmao#actual headcanons i draw with is he has an unnaturally long tongue and he has ‘buddha ears’ or fat hanging ear lobes#i think kuukou has gauges to imitate buddha ears??? but i hc he has naturally low hanging lobes#i also keep in mind i think he’s twunky but i also think that’s canon so—#vee is arting

Reboots/adaptations that just unapologetically do their own thing instead of being bogged down by imitating what came before will always be better than the alternative imo
#pattering on the roof#not necessarily better than the original mind u#but they run a better chance of it#idk I have no skin in the game with the trigun thing I didn’t even. know abt the old anime before everyone went ham with this new one#but I continually see people bitching about the new designs/animation when like……#the old one still exists#u can still go watch it if u hate eboy blonde guy and cg animation#but don’t pretend it inherently looks worse bc the animation is actually very pretty#and again a reboot wanting to be its own thing isn’t bad????#maybe it’s bc I talked abt this with mint but it made me think about shadow and bone#which is an adaptation of the Grisha trilogy and six of crows#but by nature of meshing those two series together doesn’t hold itself to massive standards wrt adapting them perfectly#and as a result comes out wayyyy better than most ya book adaptations lmfaoooo#idk! let things be their own thing! don’t sit there frowning when a reboot wants to be the cool Gen x little sibling to the original#I much prefer that to a hollow imitation
