HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY TO ELECTRIC DREAMS!!

i wanted to make something way out of my comfort zone to celebrate the 40th anniversary, so i went with puppets! i definitely learned a lot, got frustrated a lot, but overall had a ton of fun. as shown by the photo though, i only got miles done on time, but madeline and edgar will be made! it’ll just take some time from now. the edgar used for this picture is the one i made for when i cosplay miles!

on july 20th, 1984, electric dreams was released to theaters. due to sudden executive concerns, the movie had to be pulled out of theaters only 2 weeks after its first run, but the movie still managed to survive through reairings, rentals, and cult followings (so if any EDheads wondered why it did so bad at the box office, that’s why, it got yoinked)

this movie… very funnily enough isn’t even my number 1 favorite movie (it’s in the top 3 though) but it IS the number 1 inspiration i have for a lot of what i create and do, its a really charming movie, and 80s as all hell. here’s to many more years of celebrating this piece of art :]

your art is lowkey so cute and id love to see edgar and p03 together in your artstyle (if you want to of course ^_^)

ok so by. the time I realized I was going a bit too crazy on what I said would be an "ms paint doodle", I was already in too deep... ;;;;

when I first saw the ask it was 3 hours old, now it's 6 hours, I can't believe I spent 3 hours on MS paint xDD

anyways I still hope you enjoy :3c !!!! I had a bit too much fun on this one

p.s., I'm probably going to only draw solo - Edgar requests from here on. you're still totally free to send in whatever Edgar-related requests you have but I'll probably just do smaller stuff for the rest of these :)

still not over the fact that johnny sees daniel at the country club and his first thought is immediately “i need to make him jealous” like not even exaggerating that was his actual thought process

Some Macross screenshots because this movie's visuals are insane.

I don't know if I already posted this because tumblr's search function doesn't work.

My darling, light of sleepless nights, usurper time impels the birth of an alien dawn, and dusk invades the neighbourhoods of my heart, making dim the chronicle of days gone by. Tightly I grasp the thread of love, for routes and boundaries will change and they’ll engrave the charts of night without the constellations.
