i'm ready to try

#This drawing is kind of personal to me #I recently graduated (CUM LAUDE WOOOO!!!!) and its like. not to get depressing #but when i was younger i was never sure whether i would make it to this point #When i was going through what i consider to still be like. the worst time of my entire life #This fictional character was there for me and she was something for me to latch onto and cope with #eGem helped me a lot with being able to process my emotions at the time but also helped me to reflect on myself #which i think is a big reason as to why I'm really happy with where i am with myself right now #I'm going off to uni next school year to study astronomy!!! which!!!#Im also doing because of eGem!!! She ignited this kind of childlike wonder for space for me #I love doing math and physics and whilst Im still a bit scared because. honestly i don't know whether this is what i want to do with my lif #I think i'll be okay either way #either way i wanted to draw egem again even if i haven't done so in a while because its like #i think i wouldnt be who i am without her. i think i'd be a lot worse off #so like. thank you empires smp thank you geminitay thank you egem This drawing is me expressing my gratitude #AND THANK YOU AUTISM!#empires smp #empires smp s1 #empiresblr #esmp #geminitay #art #fanart #alice.art #mcyt #mcytblr #song is andromeda by weyes blood... obv.. you guys know me by now :oP

Strife

Personal project for the most talented

@imagine-darksiders

(if y’all like to read the most wholesome and thought provoking stories PLEASE for the love of pizza, I HIGHLY recommend reading her stuff)

I hope I did him justice because I honestly believe that we would be the best of friends. Very much would like to give him a hug 🫂🧡

#just being jayus #doing this ugly and scared #darksiders strife #darksiders #darksiders art #i’ve never even played darksiders #But imagine-Darksiders fanart and fanfics are so riveting I now consider myself a fan #It’s just that good #traditional art #traditional drawing #traditional sketch #it felt good to get my hands dirty with charcoal again #Sometimes I get frustrated because I feel like can’t draw things that are cute and fluffy #So I try to refugee my thought process and be like ok what CAN I draw #And I’m like I can draw epic stuff with good shading and detail #THAT I can do #It’s good to remind myself that we all have talents in different ways and that all are special and needed even if it’s not what we want #I’m grateful for my hands and the years and experience that it has taken me to be able get this far #It’s a good day y’all #I’m grateful to be able to create #Also process pics because the final result is rarely my favorite but here we are

How are you adjusting to the whole Norse mythology situation?

LEO: I’ve mostly been bugging some of the older einherjar, and Hunding, a little bit, to figure this place out. Do you know how cool it is that some people have been here since the industrial revolution?? There's no way that I'm the first of my dad's kids to make it here. I just don't know who to talk to about it.

((Leo's coping mechanism re: Norse mythology is just hating himself more bc of course he doesn't belong in his own afterlife. but he won't admit that to anyone bc he doesn't know who can be vulnerable with.))

prev ask

#uy samirah appearance! I just finished her and magnus' designs and I'm so excited abt including them!#this post and the following uhh 2+? are setting us up to talk to Magnus; figure out wtf is going on with floor 19; and get answers for Leo #which is so exciting for me bc 1 I love my magnus base sm and 2 I LOVED GINNYLUNA'S HC THAT LEO HAS ELF BLOOD IN HIM??#thats SO COOL and I'm sat for Leo to find out that he does have a place here. that he does belong and that he's not a curse and he is #not a mistake either. but for now we will have him litrly scurrying away from anyone his age and drowning in imposter syndrome bc I said so #I pointyfied his ears a little extra just for that :>#leo valdez #magnus chase #mcga #valgrace #valhalla!valgrace #blood of olympus #hotel valhalla #post-blood of olympus #einherjar!leo valdez #heroes of olympus #samirah al abbas #art #v²au #leo valdez responds #answered asks #guys he's not even using his fire powers rn because 1. he's scared of himself and 2. he doesn't know if he can. T-T #bro is engaging in hand to hand combat and also only talks to einherjar from the 20th century #that said I'm pretty sure he's just scared bc he doesn't know what's going on btw. and I think the annabeth reveal will be fun #he's not about to get kicked out of the afterlife goodplace style #sidenote bc I'm actually so excited for tmw's post #finally being able to draw these characters the way I want to (and getting really any positive response about it) has been so special to me #like .. I haven't read these books in maybe 6 years and I haven't attempted fanart since way before I started arch school and got to #actually develop any tech/digital art program literacy via practice. I'm having sm fun srry for all the rambles on this post LMAO

just saw the tags on your last post about whether donnie would do the lair games again and felt anguish just imagining it ohhhh my gosh ooohhh ohhhh my shayla oohhhh ohh eueueueueueueugh

he used to be so competitive *crying emoji* he used to banter he used to play along he used to want to win he used to push back *falls to my knees banging my fists on the ground*

would they try to play new games in lair games? make them somehow softer? make them less likely to scare him/cause him anxiety? is there any game out there that would let him forget? that would get him so immersed that the worries fall off, that the fears are put on hold at least for a little while? NOT JUST WITH THE LAIR GAMES BUT IS THERE ANYTHING OUT THERE THAT WOULD DISTRACT HIM FROM WHAT HAPPENED? ANYTHING THAT WOULD BRING BACK THE OLD DONNIE EVEN IF JUST A SHADOW? something wherein donnie makes a remark on instinct, says something sarcastic something teasing something snarky, does a confidence gesture, poses funny and silly, dances in front of his brothers again??? something he doesn't even seem to realize but his brothers do, and it means just the world to them but they can't make a big deal out of it, can't draw any attention to it because they know if they do he'll hide away so far within himself they might never see this wisp of him ever again.

(also sorry if you've already posted something like this in cc, i'm not entirely caught up yet but i prommy i will be soon!!!!, just couldn't stop my mind from running away from me after reading your comment about lair games, okay luv you byeeeee)

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKK GODDDDD like would winning even make him feel better. would he actually feel proud of himself or would he classify that under "nice things im not allowed to have" because the idea of being above them in any way about anything that isnt useful would freak him out. is there anything that would ACTUALLY just help him let loose???? considering how lair games were for him before i think he really harbored a lot of insecurity about participating until the most recent year so i dont think itd be something he'd necessarily be excited about but god do i love the idea of him actually managing to enjoy himself :') they would probably adjust it to be more comfortable for him at the very least, IF he even wants to go again. i dont think they'd push him if he said no

ghhhh the idea of them having to stop themselves from saying something when they see little whispers of his old self though. like theyre so proud and so excited and happy but if they mentioned it he would be so insecure i aughhhhhh

#ask #canary continuity #MY SHAYLA....... MY SHAYLA #he's so wound up all the time. he's so scared to let loose. but god he deserves it more than anything #they would do ANYTHING to see that manic excitement in his eyes again. they would kill for him (and they have)#fuck i also think about how much he likes music. and singing and dancing. will he ever be able to do something like that in front of them #because art is such a vulnerable thing to share and he doesnt want to be mocked #itd feel like he was being too loud :')#they want to show him its okay but they cant push or he'll just recede back into himself UGHHHHHHH #AUGGHGHHHHHHHH

if escape rooms as team building exercises became popular im not sure if id be more excited or terrified

#if it isnt already anyway.. i can see it happening as a school frosh thing. idk if it would catch on as a workplace thing #i kind of find the concept of being locked in with strangers and working to find a way out weirdly exhilarating though #at least compared to icebreakers cause i dont have to spend 10 minutes racking my brain for something to blurt out abt myself #as a bonus u could like. put people into groups and give prizes to whoever escapes first second third etc. apparently they also do themed #escape rooms.. maybe let people pick a theme? or voluntary sign up? actually this would be really fun for smth like a blind friend date #although if i found out i was locked in a room with an online friend id be too excited to actually escape LOL #ive never done an escape room before so sadly i cant speak from experience. its like up there on things i want to try next to rug tufting #workshop and visiting new art exhibits or conventions. i seriously need to get out more if it wasnt for the horrors <- school and anxiety #i was planning to invite cass to a drop-in art workshop in town but neither of us could go bc typography is making us go thru hell and back #AND THEY HAD A BUTTON MACHINE TOO #im nostalgic bc i miss working in groups and not being awkward abt it or worrying abt schedule conflicts #i realized that i learn best in groups and its a little corny but i like sharing ideas and talking through a problem #in elementary i could just sit down with friends for review and come out of it energized *and* more familiar with the material #and i could technically still do it now. but as adults we're more picky abt who we work with on top of being way more busy outside school #maybe im lonely. im shy and grew up not talking to ppl unless i absolutely have to so its hard to make friends on my own i guess #only thing getting me thru it is telling myself that humans like helping and that my cringe is overblown in my head. but its hard #hence the escape rooms. i have been able to talk to 2(!!) people though!! mostly abt school stuff but im glad to be on friendly terms #i dont really know how to be happy these days cause im constantly scaring myself abt my portfolio and finding places to work #not being ambitious is part of not wanting to put energy into something that wont work out while also not having the passion to do literall #anything else.. i should probably talk to my counsellor ugh #yapping

An idea I had for a different Rob desing . .

#Ngl I only did this because I wanted to have an idea on what should Rob look like in my brother's videogame #Because on his game there exists this place very similar to The Void and I asked him if he could add Rob in there and he said he could #But if he was gonna do it I had to change his desing so #yk- Copyright doesn't kill him #I tried to make it different but i'm not sure if it's different enough and that worries me #Buuuuuut aside from that I LOVE this drawing so much srs ^^#It kinda scared me to share it here though #Idk I felt it would be kinda cringe and maybe you all won't like it but whatever I have to keep this account alive somehow #i'm also travelling so that's why I won't be able to draw as much #(though i'll probably procastinate on it because I have no ideas)#the amazing world of gumball #tawog #tawog rob #rob tawog #my art

How I imagine myself (aka want to be)

Vent in the tags (sorry in advance)

#Honestly almost cried while sketching this #I feel so stupid #Like why did I agree to wait until i'm 25 to transition #Oh wait I know #Because I love my parents to much and they only really support me if I a) am 25 or b) my mental health is really really bad #Also it's that part of my mind that's doubting everything. That it's just a phase. That i'm not actually transmasc #Also the psychologist I used to go to supported the idea to wait till 25 and was talking about some whos she knew #And how that girl wanted to be a boy but she got a boyfriend and she didn't want to anymore #Or that boy who wanted to be a girl but later found his identity and was secure in his agab #And she kept saying/asking; “Would you be able to accept to be just a manly woman??” And similar questions #And I know it's stupid but because of it I just keep questioning myself over and over #Because now i'm especially scared it's something I grow out off #But I just want to look in a mirror and be happy #And while I do like my clothing. I want other stuff but I feel goddam dysphoric in that #Only things I can change about me is piercings and my hair but even that is something my parents aren't really keen of #Atleast the length is something they are okay with but if it's kinda more a “”man's style“” and I hear only “oh my god it's so manly"#Honestly I just hate that i'm to scared to do anything about it #All the while I suffer #cause I just cant get out of the house without a binder. Always checking how my profile looks like. Crying when its not how I want it to be #Or almost crying when my mom says “that size is better for a girl like you because other wise it looks boyish” even when I confided in her #transmasc #transgender #trans artwork #Trans #Artists on tumbr #Lgbt #my art <3 #my own post

I SWEAR I KEEP TRYING TO DO ART BUT THEN SOMETHING GETS IN THE WAY AND THEN I PROCRASTINATE AND THEN SIX MONTHS PASS

#this has been happening for like TWO YEARS BUT I SWEAR TO GOD I AM TRYING.#my usual art motivation (my webcomic idea) has been put on hold for a bit and because of that i forgort... everything #my will to draw specifically #but in my defense i have been writing k*arlach / oc indulgences and i've been VERY focused on finishing it #i also got a marketing manager (my friend <3) to help with advertising my comms and stuff so uh... look forward 2 that #i might need to start posting all of my art on a sideblog so she doesn't have to log into my main though #so there might be some changes #but i promise i want to do art!!!! but there's always something to do first and then months pass :(#or i get the urge to draw and then life is like ''have a cancer scare'' lmao...#(ended up being cancerous actually </3 but because it's skin stuff it was easy to remove)#(but that really took the piss out of me for most of july... not to mention that ffxiv released a new expansion and i have been...#having a good time with my new friends doing content and stuff!) i also made a friend irl after like 3-4 years of total isolation #we feed ants and watch them move around together and comment on their behaviour patterns...#but like when i say this takes literal hours.#we just sit out there and talk about random shit and watch ants walk across the floor. both of us hate ants btw.#like we don't like having them ON us so it's a bit like playing with fire.#but anyways yeah i've also been really low energy recently too bc of the heat and burnout from college...#but the good news is that i'm transferring in fall to a much more relaxing college & courseload!#i'm hoping it'll stop me from feeling so... awful ?? i guess ??#like i was taking classes i didn't need to that were really difficult & punishing #not to mention extremely boring & hard to pay attention to when dealing with literally anything. i did not want to be there.#my next college is much more interest-oriented so i will finally be able to take classes i want to and learn from them...!#and then maybe i will feel a bit more in control of my life / more encouraged to draw #anyways thank u for reading my ramble. hoping it all comes together soon.#i need to do a lot of work but most of it is so i can sell commissions again #but once the karlach fic is done we're so back on the webcomic train !!!!!!!!

oh yeah ftr, there's been talk floating around of a potential deal between tumblr and mid/journey and that's obviously bad news for me here. nothing is official yet and iiiii will probably keep posting until it is either debunked or confirmed, but be aware that i'm gonna delete this blog if its real.

if you'd like to help out small creators like me so we can keep our blogs here, email tumblr via contact us and tell them exactly how bad this is. be calm, be clear, and be serious so they take things seriously. k thaaaaanks sorry for the doom and gloom

#recall speaks #im putting no further tags on this bc i dont want anyone except followers to see it #this is between us ok. im scared and i dont have anywhere else to go so i hope this doesnt happen #the webtools or whatever dont work theyre constantly needing to be adapted and like #my ultimate goal was being able to post writing #im a writer at my heart #theres no protections for writing. no ones ever thought to protect us writers who dont have the importance to copyright shit #i would just be showing everything to my friends and no one else forever and that would be very sad #dont feel bad if u rbd stuff btw ik that that itself also renders the tools and deleting useless #but u were just using the site the way ur supposed to u just wanted to share my stuff and i was happy u did #loving real art is one of the few defences we have
