Why is it that the only time I ever want orange juice is right after I’ve brushed my teeth?
#orange juice is a curse#its pulpy nightmare#it’s awkward taste#its like oranges but not quite#why?#because god hates us.

portrait study but its kenny
#south park#kenny mccormick#sp kenny#south park fanart#shroomer's art !#shroomer's archives: south park#kenny is quite literally my muse#also its 2 am so it took me quite literally 5 minutes to think of what to caption this only to come up with that#this is actually for one of my classes' final assignment that we were given like 3-4 weeks to do#and i did it in one day lmao#anyways i really wanted to experiment with different texture brushes and a different rendering style#because i dont believe in having a consistent artstyle#my favorite kenny piece to date <3#if i had a nickel for every time i made a drawing of a south park character with an eye straining red-blue color palette#id have two nickels#which isnt a lot but its weird that it happened twice#i actually had to tone down the colors because IT WAS SO RED AND SO BLUE INITIALLY but i think it worked out for the best#cause the orange fits way better with the whole kenny thing#tw: eyestrain

putting Charater through your own mental health issues will never not be Good. putting mapicc through my brain and making him actually receive the comfort I crave and having it Actually help. thats good shit
#he has depression and doesnt like telling people#its been so long though. he isnt suprised anymore when zam knows#an ask to meet at zams base which he assumes will be him needing to speak to him#he was hesitant to go.#but it turns into him beling allowed to sit an the floor#hearing the water still trapped in the prismarine bricks#zam gets him what he needs. something interesting to drink. not water and no caffeine. often orange juice#things that dont hold reminders of everyhting he needs to do#brand new blankets and clothes. sometimes mapicc will bring things from minute or spoke since theyre oversized#its so usual now that zam wont ask what he needs. he picks up on the small tells of needing quiet or distractions. contact or alone time#he almost never wants to be alone though.#after hours of laying there together#zam will pull out something thats easy to do without sitting up or needing a desk#this time its needle felting. not something mapicc would try on his own. but over the years hes gotten quite good making small comforts#it helps.#rambles#cat posting#devotion posting

Redesigned that goldfish outfit
#my art#character design#original character#🔥#but not exactly#🔥 from another timeline where they didn’t become self conscious like our!🔥#they them for them#died from a family’s betrayal#the goldfish motif kinda represents them being a fish out of water knowing things are wrong but couldn’t quite put a finger to it#and in my prev drawings (two) there is like that central burning splash of orange in it#like its pretty but it’s not part of the actual outfit it’s more like a lighting/style thing#it’s like the lord burner equivalent of super saiyan tbh#also this is not the goldfish outfit tm this is goldfish outfit + cape#for max. formality#equivalent to our 🔥's eog fit

my ghost (where'd you go?) turns one year old in two (2!!!!) days, and as I am very excited about this, I made a collage! I also wanted to take this time to explain the color story I've been envisioning for this body of work.
So to perhaps start with the obvious, the blue aspects are representative of sadness, grief, emotional intimacy, loss, and connection (emotional). The color blue usually accompanies discussions of loss or loneliness, like when Tyler looks out to the night sky when talking about his parents, or in the seconds before he has a panic spiral about losing Wednesday.
I’d woken up before my alarm and the world was quiet in the early-morning light, the softest shade of blue from the world outside turning the whole of her into a sort of navy amidst a sea of grays. With the sight before me, it was as if I could hear waves crashing, like a warning of an incoming storm as it lingered on the horizon. I exhale the breath I’d taken in. Wednesday was beautiful, that was hard to deny, but she also exists so far from me, on the other side of the veil. It was at this moment that I knew, regardless of how much I wished it weren’t true, that our story, whatever it was, is a tragedy. I knew that, and I mourned what we could’ve had if I’d just talked to her when she was alive, when I had the chance.
(Ch. 8, What Hurts the Most (Tyler)
Orange, on the other hand, represents life, warmth, change, desire, and connection (physical). References to the color orange are usually connected to choices or circumstances regarding ones life, like the decision to medicate oneself for their condition, a change of perspective in the autumn leaves, or in the drive or desire for something that matters to the heart.
“Wednesday, I don’t know how to be the one to tell you this,” He says, not for the first time today. I only hoped that this time would be less jarring than the first. “But you’re one of the brave ones.” This momentarily stops me in my tracks, but then I keep walking, catching up with Tyler as we make our way closer and closer to his house. I’d never thought of myself as particularly brave, before–stubborn, perhaps–but hardly brave. I avert my eyes from his face and look at the trees as we pass them by, and note their changing, orangey-brown color. “I don’t think I’m particularly brave, but rather uncaring. The opinions of others mean very little to me when I so highly value my own. So, it only makes sense that I see the world as I do.” I explain, turning my attention back to Tyler. “Yeah, I guess it does,” He agrees.
(Ch. 3, Home Sweet Home (Wednesday))
I plan to continue these color motifs throughout this project, as it's something that's stuck out to me since the very beginning as something I want to do, but being able to properly reiterate my vision in a visual medium has been super helpful and has inspired me greatly. I hope to intertwine these themes as well as contrast them against one another, highlighting the best and worst of both. These colors, same as Wednesday and Tyler, are complementary but decidedly separate from one another. Mixing them too completely will only lead to shades of gray, and while our leading lady may prefer it that way, I'm of the opinion that life is most beautiful in color.
#if you took the time to read this: thank you#and if you just like the visual and think its pretty: also thank you!#i don't have nearly enough orange references yet in this fic but that'll be fixed soon enough#i hope#wednesday fanfic#wednesday addams#tyler galpin#not quite#weyler#but tagging for visibility#(i genuinely hope thats okay as there is subtle amounts of pining in this fic its just not a get together fic)#ghost au#my writing

cant stop thinking about a person on twt who said they wanted jon chu to direct a hunchback of notre dame movie……. you want the guy who cant light a scene properly to direct a movie where the main visual motif would be light like dont piss me oofffffff
#there some motif about warm/cool light that i cant quite work out#like hellfire (warm) heavens light (cool)#restriction/freedom???? hatred/idolisation??? lust/love????#theres also a motif in my brain regarding water and how the presence of water is like a prayer#and id want it to rain in the final scene… putting out the fire completely#but its like. baptism at the start. e giving q water at the festival. p putting out the torch in a bucket of water.#e tending to p wounds w water by the seine. also imagine a water dropping into a puddle in the cell of the someday scene#anyway i would backlight the shit out of scenes PROPERLY#give me an actual black silhouette of esmeralda running against bright orange flames

Goretober except instead of following a list of prompts I draw whatever I want and on my birthday I draw alastyr cross covered in blood and everyone claps and giggles and gives me notes and everything is good forever
#i actually love october so much but idk if its bc of of halloween or goretober or mh birthday or if its just silly#also random thing but does anyone else associate things with colors?#like for me its months friends sconcepts and other things#for example. october is primarily orange with secondary color black. november is blue/light blue. december is white and green primarily with#secondary of red. and my friend is purple but like a very specific shade of purple i havent quite figured out how to describe but its dull#and my otber friend is green and my other other friend is pink with a secondary of red#does this. make sense.#and my other other other friend is blue (fishcop :3)but its a bit odd bc ppl normally dont get colors that fast#idk maybe im just silly

#my pomme design has changed sm and im still not sure im quite there its just so crowded and I still am not satisfied w it#but I like the opal magical colouring its from unicorn for pierre#the hijab is def a design I really like for pomme but like I want butterfly wings for pomme so the duck wings move up to ear position#but the ears are covered and also wing ears dramatic dragon horns a hijab and then a beret on top of it all like ????#and then I just went crazy cause I wanted the rainbow colors from Bagheras hat and also wanted more etoiles in there#and then I had no idea how to put Antoine in here so for now a lot of red is enough cause like whiskers would've crowded it even more#idek im probably not putting Kameto in there more than there already is w blue cause like he isn't really active at all#and I wouldn't even know where to start w bad#also the reds fucked w me at the end I ended up messing w them a lot cause the red I used for the dress before began looking very orange#but idk she's really cute I put a little creeper face and a little pacman as well not for tazercraft but for pierre and etoiles#okay design rant tangent whatever over#QSMP#qsmp fanart#fanart#qsmp pomme#qsmp eggs#miras art#ps yes the glasses were in fact a last second decision

Watcher pearl.... the angst of watcher pearl... evo -> es1 -> hcs8.... armageddon curse... do you think she's always looking to the sky? Do you think Pearlescent Moon thought hcs8 was finally making explicit it wss her fault? How many times can the world end around you before you blame yourself-
#that woman went from evo to empires s1 to hcs8. she would simply think she was cursed!! ppl like watcher grian is angsty no hes not. he got#a job and then quit a few years later amicably. watcher pearl on the other hand. if i want watcher angst its pearl i look toward babes#i have so many thoughts abt watchers and none of them simple#itd be so easy to be like oh theyre evil. no theyre not. theres no evil here. forces beyond player comprehension but not evil. not malicious#theyre blue-orange morality its eldritch snd weird and inhuman. theyre not evil. theyre not people#except of course for the ones that return.#being a watcher and being a Watchef are different things though you have to have been the latter to be the former. species and job title but#you cant help that you had to join an organisation/eldritch player existence observation cult to become the former ♡#basically Watcher = watcher but watcher != Watcher. you understand.#!= <- does not equal. if you didnt take computer science in high school#hc pearl#evo pearl#es1 pearl#i have. so many thoughts abt pearl and destruction and renewal and first second third chances and responsibility and guilt and -

They're cute together. I hope Rod got off early for good behaviour and they lived happily ever after. Or better yet, they came to their senses, killed Porifry and eloped
#crime and punishment#roderick raskolniknov#sonya#spongebob squarepants#slappy laszlo#slippy lotte#they didnt come out great#slappys colours dont look right and i just noticed i forgot to add the lil orange lines on their fins#not to mention slippys hair looks too wild its not quite that crazy#i like their outfits though#my art#valentines day

i am SO fucking exhausted by mainstream media opinions lately and i don't understand why they're frequently SO different from my own? like i genuinely don't think i am approaching anything from that unique of a perspective as a viewer? maybe it's just that i'm too easy to please when it comes to stories or something but like. how is the mainstream, widely accepted consensus on yellowjackets season 2 is that it's "bad" and "doesn't work as a season" and is "riddled with problems." literally what the fuck are you talking about. this is the most fun i have had watching television uhhhhh literally Ever? you're telling me people hated Burial? how? why? like i don't...i just don't GET it. and i'm not playing dumb for kicks here im like genuinely honest to god confused. that was the single best episode of television I've ever watched in my life. like i get that people have different opinions about things and that's fine but HOW am i in the minority here what am i missing
#most of the critiques I've seen are that it 'focused on the adults too much' and was 'too weird' re: mistys sequence#like??? that was clearly supposed to be funny and campy and silly and artistic and a twin peaks homage?#and the 'focusing on the adults' i... i mean i guess some people are just here for the '96 mystery#and are completely uninterested in the psychological effects it had on all the characters?#i guess some people don't?? care??? about watching them wrestle with that trauma and go on to try to have lives#after something like that?#but like. that's the entire point of the show though. if you hate that why are you watching it every week#with enough investment to like. blog about it and put energy into writing whole ass thinkpieces#so much of media criticism these days boil down into 'i wish this show was Not the show that it is'#'i wish it was this other show that im writing with my twitter mutuals'#and like that's fine and fun and cool and valid and that's what fic is for! but a show isnt BAD for committing to itself and its own vision#like. there is something sooo sexy abt a piece of media that is so wholly itself that you have to meet it where it is#and judge it by its own metric#it creates a whole new unique lens for each and every thing you love! quit comparing apples and oranges!#it's SO fucking fun analyzing different pieces of media through the lens of their own little world and conventions#and guiding principles and plot pacing and what they choose to emphasize and their genre conventions and etc etc#it's FUN! and not to sound like a pretentious film bro dipshit but like why does it seem like this is a dying art these days#'s2 is boring' THEY. THEY ATE A PERSON. ARE WE WATCHING THE SAME THING

i don't have any good pictures but i'm almost done painting my bathroom :D i painted the walls this green which i was a bit nervous about because i've never had any sort of green room period but it's really growing on me
#in my lighting its a bit more blue/cool as well not quite this green#either way eons better than what it was before which was this really depressing gray-purple color#so i feel a lot better in the space as well#i might also paint my cabinets since right now they're this really orange faux wood which i kind of hate#maybe like a dark charcoal or something. white seems too boring and there's already a lot of white in the room from the toilet/bath#the next thing i want to change is the flooring its like. not tile but like a laid sheet fake tile thing? idk#its so old its peeling at the edges :| but that's all over my house so if i change the flooring i'm gonna do all of it at once#so that's very much a later when i have more money project#0.txt
