a collection of DCAS memes so far

#disventure camp #dcas #disventure camp spoilers #alec disventure camp #fiore disventure camp #hunter disventure camp #ally disventure camp #tess disventure camp #ellie disventure camp #jake disventure camp #gabby disventure camp #james disventure camp #lake disventure camp #ashley disventure camp #the james one was inspired by a doodle by sadlyglad_ on instagram so please support his work as well!#it's really good especially if you like james x aiden #also all of the forest backgrounds were assets taken from the show i did not draw those myself #why the hell did jake appear three times #he's just the man of the hour i suppose #i started drawing these before episode 6 and thankfully nothing happened to make any of these no longer relevant/true #hopefully i'll have more meme redraw ideas in the future but for now this is all. hehe disventure camp >:)#my art #fanart #comic #also i finally learned how to use the text tool in procreate! wish there was a better way to add outlines though #huntessally

you are so whimsical i qant to check out this mdzs (..??) because of your whimsical nature thank you sorry im very high and your art moved me emotionally

This is simultaneously the sweetest and funniest thing someone has sent me, thank you.

#ask #non-mdzs #I have a hunch you will not recall sending this to me but I wish to immortalize it.#The progression of me going 'aw' to 'barking with laughter' at the last bit of this message was a delight.#Oh man what to say about getting into MDZS...#I admit I'm probably low on the list of people who should be recommending it.#I enjoy it! But there are also a ton of different adaptations that each do a slightly different thing with the story and characters.#Personally I loved The Untamed (Netflix live action) for how campy the action was. It got emotional but really...It made me laugh.#And I love watching it with people because it also makes them laugh.#(The Untamed changes a lot of plot elements so it isn't looked upon very favourably by many fans. I love it as its own thing)#Don't get me wrong; it *is* a story with interesting things to say and I certainly have written tons of analysis on it.#But it's also a series I spent over a year making parody comics of. It comes from a place of love!#The audio drama is really good and I think it might be the best form of mdzs...however finding episodes is not easy.#The audio drama is also what I'm basing all these comics on!#There is a book (the primary source) An animated series and a comic to check out as well.#Someone probably has a better pitch and recommendation list than I do. I just make the funny comics.

Based on my favorite gif lately

#my art stuff #digital art #baldurs gate 3 #bg3 #astarion #batstarion #once again specifying this is a spawn astarion with some sort of wild shape thing #bat #good morning #gif #I’ve been in such a weird place mentally about art lately #I just keep stopping myself from drawing things cus I want to draw Astarion -#- but fsr my brain decided I draw him wrong and thus makes it pointless to even start #bat form is fine - I have no problems with it. But in his normal form? no can do buckaroo.#It’s one part why I haven’t shared much art lately - I don’t get happy enough about the “quality”#then just don’t share it as a result - in turn making me feel worse because I’m not posting - making me doubt myself more - etc etc #idk man - I got way too giddy earlier today cus someone could tell this was Astarion - even though this isn’t even the version of him I -#- feel insecure about #I keep seeing these artists making more realistic art and cool comics and interactions - most of which are shaded really beautifully -#- and all I can think about is how I CAN’T do that - even if it wouldn’t fuck me up mentally #I just put too much stress on my ability to create realism and I keep “failing” at doing that (by actively avoiding it for my own health)#idk man - I just wish I felt better about Astarion’s stupid chin OTL

‘born in the wrong generation’ but I mean I’d have been so fucking good at writing edgy, lore breaking doctor who missing adventures books in the 90s

#I have so many ideas that would never be considered now but I fully believe would have been lapped up back in the day #it’s pure ego but man I wish I had time to write them even just for fun #virgin missing adventures #wilderness years #Doctor who #and I don’t mean it would make a good big finish outing or comic or whatever #I mean campy lore breaking edgelord sci fi goodness #like they’re so self indulgent but that only makes me think they’d fit in even better

There's something about superheroes and legacies that drive me absolutely NUTS, specifically with the imagery of looking at a suit behind glass

The imagery of a face juxtaposed over a suit. The weight of the world on your shoulders, whether it's new or if you're stepping into shoes previously filled, now empty. The weight of the world, the weight of that legacy. Bonus points if you didn't even want it. Maybe you did and you grew up and now you're not sure. Now you don't want it. But everyone's expecting it. Something something expectation of a legacy to strive toward and hollowness of a legacy unwanted

Anyways. I'm going to go throw up now

Whoops hand slipped here’s some TADC character fanart. Apologies for the severe lack of Pomni in this one idk where she went off to…maybe she got lost on her way to find the exit. The lines are incredibly choppy & rushed, I know, but it was still fun art practice! I don’t draw these guys nearly enough anyways so this is a nice change of pace. Support indie animation :3

#you wanna know a secret? don’t like how I draw Ragatha I wish I could do her better 😔#like I don’t know if I make her hair straight or if it’s kinda wavy?? and her eye too idk how to draw it in a satisfying way :((#but that’s a normal dilemma when I’m trying to blend my artstyle with the shows artstyle #keeping the characters on model/recognizable and consistent but also my own style ya know?#making those adjustments takes time and usually I need to draw a character 7+ times before it looks good #JAX ON THE OTHER HAND—OH BOY GOODIE HE IS SO COMICALLY EASY TO DRAW HALLELUJAH LOL #I think the Puzzle toothy grin & toon eyes just automatically agree with me #then Kinger I also struggle with personally #Gangle’s mask shape is confusing at first but then you adjust fairly quickly #Caine is neutral party to me—I know how his design is but I’m not confident without reference material #and then the artstyle translation is another hurdle to juggle <<#his top hat especially like HOW U DRAW 😭 I can manage Puzzles bowler hat just fine but NOT top hats man #Zooble is lovely Zooble peace and love they did nothing wrong just pleasant to draw uwu #Jax & Zooble conflict oh noooo the bitches are fighting /j #Actually this initially started only with Caine & Zooble but I just kept adding others lol #Ragatha & Kinger we’re the very last additions #hplonesome art #tadc characters #the amazing digital circus characters #NOT GONNA PUT ANYMORE TAGS BECAUSE THEN IT’LL GET SWEPT UP AND PEOPLE WILL ASSUME I DRAW THEM ALL THE TIME 🥲#I can’t be held liable for serving TADC fanart content because that isn’t me right now sorry

Deacon loves two things: Ymber and digging himself a grave.

Fulj hates one thing: Deacon.

#my characters #waiting on some info on the next commission so i indulged in ocs today bc i doubt i will have as much time for lil comics for a bit #deacon is so devoted hes like yeah i would kill for a deity that could easily kill anything himself but yknow teehee #and fulj just did you tell him you needed therapy also does he even know youd murder in his name #deacon caught red handed haha no of course i havent told him it should be obvious enough haha.... and its in his defense not his name :c #man really does have some issues but i love him so much and hes so devoted but like. unhealthily after a while #he does in fact need a chill pill and therapy but to be fair #ymber has needed therapy for centuries and yet he just bottles it all up and suffers so #its pretty unhealthy until they yell at each other one (1) time bc they are so insecure about things and get mad over very valid reasons #but then theyre like you know what that was necessary and i still want to stay by your side if you let me #and then fulj is like dude hey sorry you seem really happy did you fu- and ymber is like no please stop there we have not #fulj just squinting cause have not is very different than will not but whatever she doesnt wanna think about that with deacon involved ew #and eventually fulj is like hey ymber im sorry to say but i really do hate deacon and i dont even know why but he makes me uncomfortable #while deacon is just. in the room. hearing this and thinking how he knows she thinks hes weird but wow that wording hurts #and ymber doesnt wanna fill in memories better forgotten by fulj which she had forcefully removed #so he just says oh well his hair and clothing are black and you had someone in the past that you might see in him and its not a pleasant en #so you know maybe its that idk #and fulj is then WHATST i was rude to him for someone i cant even remember? lame im gonna try SO HARD to be nice to him now #and deacon just still sitting there with some food like this is v awkward and i wish i could not be here for it #and later he asks ymber about who he resembled and as ymber is descibing her it clicks in deacons head and he gets really sad #that he might somehow remind fulj of the woman she loved before she was punished for loving a mortal #and he feels kinda bad pestering her so much with his curiosities about deities and he kinda gets it #the fact hes close to ymber might remind her at the core that she was once that close with a mortal if not closer #anyway story time in the tags again #im so obsessed with these peeps and i have made them suffer so much but they do all end on a happy note #its still funny and nice to me that while fulj is creeped out by deacon and doesnt like talking to him #he still expresses the most emotions to her - he tries hard to remain serious around ymber and collected and obedient at all times #and when out and about with ymber he has to be intimidating and refuses smiling but fulj?? all sunshine and smiles and emotions easy to rea #and she is just that is so weird go away i hate you

my laptops like super fucking dead and its gonna be a couple days before i can get a new one so uh. have a ghost roxas au doodle from procreate instead. returning to my roots i suppose. do not ask me to explain the story context for this or whats going on because i will not explain ok. you can figure it out yourself <-( theres absolutely not enough information for you to figure it out for yourself )

#doodles #kingdom hearts #sora #roxas #ghost roxas au #my goal is to make a story as hard to understand as kh lore itself #aka not that complicated but people love being dramatic about it #eheh #anyways man on one hand i would love to tell this story as just a comic. bc i think im better at storytelling visually #but also i. really like writing shitty prose #idk ive written an absurd amount for this au #idk if youre at all even interested in this au lemme know if youd prefer a comic or a fic #if i do a fic id probably do art to go with it #sigh idk sticking to one feels really limiting to me #bc i dont think i can like. convey the emotions id like to do with just a comic #but i also naturally feel a bit more inclined to do a visual format since im more comfortable than that #with that* sorry im tired #idk maybe i could do a comic w some optional stuff to read as a supplement #i wish there was an easier way to mix the formats #anyways idk if anyone even cares about this au its mostly a self indulgent little project for me #but if you do care lmk #ok i have to get up early so im gonna. go to sleep. <- lying

every second i spend not making a twisted psychological horror is a second wasted

#my little fucked up brain wants to make little fucked up things but i CANT because i have no motivation to finish ANYTHING EVER #and i also have like zero of the skills required to make the things i wanna make #but the CONCEPTS wont stop FUCKING ROTATING AROUND IN MY HEAD:(((#growlllll #please i just wanna take the basic outline for a horror concept i really really like but then make it actually good #because they fucked it up horribly #well not horribly it just wasn't good #but theres SOMETHING IN IT PLEASE JUST LET ME MAKE IT GOOD #SHAKING YOU #IT HAS SUCH POTENTIAL:((((((((((#man if i had a nickel for every horror comic i read that had some aspect of EXCELLENT horror but they absolutely fumbled the rest #id have two nickels #well actually i dont know if theyve fumbled one they still have the chance to pull through (dont read this im talking about dont read this #the other being everything's fine #ofc #that is the one i REALLY want to take the general concept of and make it better #and by general concept i mean literally nothing in the actual comic and just the ads i got on youtube #i want THAT SHIT #that shit scared me SO FUCKING BAD IT WAS AWESOME #god the fucking dog scene im still not over that #that scene with voice acting + sound effects was HORRIFYING #ESPECIALLY without context holy FUCK #to instill the level of fear that gave me is a DREAM #the whole concept of everything seeming just slightly off #eventually ramping up to genuinely horrible senarios #and for everyone to just pretend it isn't happening #is SUCH. A GOOD. IDEA.#i will NEVER not think thats cool #i just WISH they had lived up to those ads man #the comic was surprisingly disappointing imo

watched the musical demon show (don't wanna name it so this post isn't in the tags) at the behest of an IRL friend and i can already tell this is going to be a piece of media where i absolutely cannot stop thinking about it, not because i really love the show as-is, but because it has so many individual components i really like and find incredibly fun or compelling, and i'm so frustrated that it doesn't come together for me

i think the main thing i can say about it as a show, setting aside some of the insensitive choices that were made that i really don't feel qualified to tackle or talk about, is that the entire thing sort of gives off this vibe of someone really excited to show you every single oc they made in high school and college and i very genuinely mean that in both the best and worst ways possible

there are some good hooks for season two though so i will absolutely give them that

#the vibe is just like... they are just soooo excited to get all their ideas out that it becomes... messy and badly paced #like there are so many moments that are cool or fun or emotional in a vaccuum but they don't connect fully y'know #because this arc or character was JUST introduced so there isn't proper build up. everything moves too quick #and it's frustrating because you can TELL that the people making this show love their ideas and characters #and i more than get thta! i am also someone with a lotta ocs i love to blab about #but i think they have been working with them so long that they #a. assume we are already just as attached to them as they are without always doing that work #b. assume we've seen all the supplemental material which. i have not #and i don't think that a professional show is the type of thing where there should be a barrier of entry that involves like #podcasts and comics and twitter threads and IC instagram posts about characters to do that emotional/lore legwork y'know #i love lore and supplemental stuff obviously but this should still be like #a satisfying experience for me a person who saw the pilot however many years ago and then has not interacted with the show or fandom since #idk man stuff felt rushed and messy and i wish i liked it more #it needed more slow moments i think. the two scenes where the group all drinks together (minus one awful joke in the bar scene) are like #the best in the show to me becase i actually believe these guys are FRIENDS. i wanna see them hang out more!#i wanna see them actually really grow to like each other organically!!! i wanna see them build connections and grow better slowly!!!#songs absolutely slap though. soundtrack is probably gonna be in my spotify unwrapped 2024 #i love me a musical and that inspiration is on its sleeve which i love #also imo the humor isn't great usually. it's very juvenile imo and sometime that works but it often doesn't #(for me at least humor is obviously SUPER subjective)#also tonally they have this 'have your cake and eat it too' issue which bugs me. it's exemplified by the v's (one in particular)#actually i could go on a whole rant about the v's if anyone is interested because god i have some Thoughts #and i think my issues with the v's (namely one v) encapsulates many issues i have with the show #despite all this rambling i actually did enjoy a lot of my time with it. i just don't think it was well-written if that makes sense

Not much has been shared yet for the Nicky day of the week which has me thinking that *I* wanna draw a Nicky to share but... That would require... Drawing and... Liking what I draw...

#I should draw though it's been a minute #I wanna draw Sparrow too... maybe even a demon Sparrow...#:/ But unfortunately to get better at art you gotta make more of the art #And it's hard for me to not get discouraged very quickly #And I'm always so embarrassed when I do share my drawings lmao #That's why I don't use an art tag- don't want people finding that shit lmao #Props to gigi though for scavenging my blog like a raccoon for an oldish glenn sketch that one time tho LMAO #She earned that #:0 I still mostly like that Nicky I have as my banner but I feel like I've never been as pleased with a drawing I've done of him since #Oh Cal if you're reading this- you were talking the other day about wishing you were more of a writer to express what visual art can't #And I *totally* felt that from the opposite end LOL #(I do get insecure about my writing but like not as much) like ''THIS WOULDN'T WORK AS A FIC THIS WAS MEANT TO BE A 4 PANEL COMIC"#Or just like ''I want to *show* you this character design'' not idk. Write about it.#Also I can keep my attention drawing for much longer than writing lol- writing fiction anyways #Man. ANYWAYS.

I hope someone writes a good fic about the high cloud quintet with all the messy pieces of lore we have because i'm very unsatisfied with what we got and I want MORE OF THEM. don't know why i'm so obsessed with this tragic group of friends but 😭 IM SO FEELINGS ABOUT THEM but also empty because they didn't satisfy me with what they gave us lmao I require more. but that was the end and i'll never get more....unless someone writes a great fic about them.....!

#hsr #lee text #one of the things that bothered me most was not seeing dan heng react to learning about blade/yingxing? hrm #everything in star rail seems super disconnected and rushed and i wish they could do the stories better #so i need someone to write a thing and fill in the gaps and add more and satisfy my need for a good story about these tragic losers #i want more baiheng because she seemed like the most adorable lovable thing 😭#i want more yingxing because i love him a lot for some reason i cant even figure out #i want jing yuan before he became a very sad and distant and lonely old man whose constant smile seems painfully fake.....#i want to see more of jing liu before she went crazy with mara #i want the gay and the lesbian hoyo cant give for legal reasons (xingyue/bailiu)#i want a story maybe starting with them meeting. becoming close and very good friends #maybe leading to their end dbdndnksksks it would hurt but im sure fandom writers can write it better than the game writers😅#im just rambling and reading makes me fall asleep and idk if anyone would ever write this but 😭#idk why my brain even clung onto them so much. theres other tragic friend stories this didnt happen with. why this one #i'd love a comic/manga about this group too but that even less likely than a fic. im sure other people like this group too #and maybe one is a fic writer. but an entire manga piece about them is unlikely 😅#its just easier for me to read when i can SEE it. thats just a preference tho #i feel like lore accurate fics arent as common tho? like taking all the lore you know and piecing it together into a whole story?#not that i read fics much so idk what im talking about but 99.9% if ones ive see are just ship fics only #what am i talking about i lost my train of thought lmao #anyway jingliu better come home. im at like 60 pity. where is she!!!!!!

silver age superman needs to suck a dick and cry in his tiny fucking complete ass apartment about it im so serious

#i started reading superman and supergirl stuff from the silver age and wow i don’t think I’ve hated a character more than silver age superma #he makes me SO mad #no way is he literally depriving kara of any sense of humanity and love just to be his contingency plan #and depriving her of love and care and affection of parents ever and making her only go out to do errands for him and his missions #hey little 15 year old girl i need you to be in love with me and make out with me for this mission underneath a complete other name #AND THEYRE COUSINS #teehee let me tell you that you can go out in public as your own person and not just hide yourself from the world for me but omg omg you #messed up this mission a little bit?? NO IM TAKING AWAY ALL THE PRESENTS I SHOWED YOU GO BACK TO THE OROHAMAGE AND WISH FOR HAPPINESS ILL #NEVER LET YOU HAVE #he literally thinks he’s better than everyone ever HE MAKES ME SO MADDDDDDDDDDDDDD #supergirl #superman #kal el #clark kent #silver age comics #silver age dc #dc #action comics #laz.exe #also #he’s so homophobic gay man coded but nobody’s really ready for that conversation

So there's my grammar teacher who used to be known as the intimidating one but like.. He's always been open to me and my friend about like what he watches and interests and has literally asked to see my writing

Do you know how awkward it is to explain the last thing I wrote was haha flower cough;"#+(@+%

(he liked the concept and deadass said "send it to me that's a command" and now I'm omw to write something entirely new because ain't no way I'm sending MineDai)

LMAO I WAS GONNA SAY YOU'D HAVE TO HOLD A GUN TO MY HEAD TO SEND SLASH FICTION TO MY TEACHER

#snap chats #i could never be that open with a teacher bro id rather get shot #will be epic to see what you end up cooking up for him tho. in pursuit of Not sending slash fiction lmaoooo #i wish i was able to be close with my teachers- closest i got was my art teacher during I Think my 1st or 2nd year of high school #he was SUCH a cool teacher and he'd always work on commissions during class #he was color blind so he had this really cool system on figuring out what the appropriate colors were for a client's piece #i remember one time we were meant to sketch those like. japanese scroll pieces Yk What I Mean #and while he did have preexisting examples for students who didnt know what to do (or didnt care LMAO)#he was just 'you always know what you're doing so you can freehand it' so that was epic :)#i drew a dragon.... cause im predictable...... but he really liked it so :)#man high school sucked but i also remember my english/comics teacher.. she was a really big fan of mine #she was especially passionate about my doing comics and doing art related things.. i get sad thinking about it sometimes #part of why ive always wanted to make a doujin was for her so i could send it to her and be like #'hey teach i still really like art look :)'. like when i say she was SUPER passionate about me It Was Super Passion #honestly she was my first big fan if im tbh- id never gotten support like that and i wish i valued her enthusiasm more #i was just mad depressed and angry in high school i just wanted to be left alone all the time.. but oh well no point in crying about it now #it'd be better if i could start thinking of a teacher-friendly doujin to make and give her... lmao.....#BUT YEAH NOT TO HIJACK YOUR ASK TO RAMBLE i hope you think of something to give your teach LMAOOO #just change the names full a Fifty Shades it's fine. terrible example but we know what i mean is the worst part
