[ID: Three panel comic. Crudely drawn stick figures represent people.

Panel 1: A lime green person is talking to someone whose color is approximately a warm grey tone.

Approximately warm grey: "You know, green is just not a very creative color."

Lime: "Excuse me?"

Approximately warm grey: "Unlike you simplistic primary greenies, nonprimary people such as myself have far more interesting chromatic alignments."

Lime: "I am going to lose patience with this very quickly, make your case immediately."

Panel 2: Zoom in on approximately warm grey.

Approximately warm grey: "Of course. I am medium-dark reddish cyan with warm-toned teal and cold sepia accents, and a dash of burgundy-toned light cornflower blue. It is a subtle, rich, complex colour with far more nuance than you can ever even begin to comprehend. Your limited, primary mind simply cannot process it. It is beyond you. You are beneath me."

Panel 3: Zoom in on lime.

Lime: "...Do you think lime green is a primary colour?"

The last frame of my Tremonton UT series on Portra 160.

There's a diner up there that seems to be the spot everyone hangs out at. Not sure how the coffee is, but the afternoon sun sure looks cozy.

made some deadly six model ref sheets (i know SOMEONE out there has use of these)

things to keep in mind- the colors are taken from their concept art since it was flat, the heights are taken from the only character bios we have of them. i tried very hard to stay objective and not shove any of my design hcs in there even if theres some things i dont personally like these sheets arent scaled down at all so i hope this post doesnt explode

I'm sure I've made this exact post before but brotherhood following the manga so closely is actually its greatest weakness because the thing about an adaptation is you have to translate the source material in such a way that it functions in a new medium... things that work in a comic won't necessarily work in a show like the most obvious example of this is how the fma manga has a ton of cutaway gags that work because it's a comic! everyone reads at their own pace so having a random extra silly side panel isn't going to disrupt the entire flow. but when brotherhood tries to directly replicate the jokes in a format they weren't meant for they fall flat and it is so disruptive to the show. And like they choose to put those in but then cut out a ton of other scenes along the way for the sake of accelerating the plot, but the stuff they cut out is all character study and worldbuilding which hurts the final product even more. and you see this on a macro and micro level like not only the overall progression of the story across the entire series and the way they speed through the portion that 03 covered, but also the handling of certain scenes, particularly ones that are in both shows as the difference becomes very obvious. The most obvious example I can point to is ed and al's human transmutation attempt. idk 03 is so well directed and then in brotherhood they were just like we hate vibes. and some of that does just come down to my personal preference but I'm also not wrong... to be honest...

Which version of this do you prefer?

Further notes:

The musical is available for licensing, though restrictions apply in some countries. There is also a full cast recording, and there is a bootleg video of the Broadway production still up on YouTube

su au lets fucking goooooo

edit: TUMBLR ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU SCRAMBLE SHIT WHEN I USE A READ MORE YOURE A FUCKING CUNT GOOD LORD

edit2: it added the edit but not the fucking read more. im tired

i had the brush set too small at first & didnt realize until i was already too far along- full body diamond authority is ok w the shaded fit & wings but the headshot is just. eh. kinda dislike it. im fucking obsessed with the other headshot tho

giyuu's a lapis along w tsutako, normal lapis terraforming job but some shit went down, tsutako got shattered, giyuu was left to fend for herself until she ran into a lost kunzite fresh out the ground (she had a slight imperfection, showed up as a spot along her cheek (corner of mouth to center base of ear) that looks like raw kunzite/ yk when a helmet or somethn gets shaved down sliding against a road? that)

they tough it out in the wilds for a while, they got attacked and accidentally fused to defend themselves, kept fusing when they were in trouble after that- yadda yadda meet makomo (also a gem) & sakonji and learn how to be their own person, getting their own names (giyuu got Giyuu, the kunzite got Sabito) and meeting a group of other rogue gems & making human friends

sabito got particularly interested in the concept of human masculinity & highly respected the closest man she knew, sakonji- transed his gender & chose to dedicate himself to protecting those he cares about. giyuu is very close to him and also changed pronouns & vibes bc sabito loved it so much, though he doesnt really care about human perceptions of gender (hes a pretty rock made of light, the fuck does he need a gender for? (sabito doesnt see it that way, he never got indoctrinated/had a formal gem education or whatever, so hes just vibin))

something something giyuu found a way to precisely control water, and what is ice if not Structured Water. sabito never got whatever his job as a kunzite was, but he has a similar ability as Pearl where hes able to summon a blade from his gem (rectangular cut, back of his left hand). when theyre fused they become Hawk's Eye (also know as blue tiger's eye), able to both control water(& subsequently ice) and form blades along his arms and feet; the blades on his feet allow him to ice skate, the blades on his arms are attached at two points on the forearm and is curved over the hand- the blade's allowed to spin around the arm, tip of the blade is at the point of rotation so itll be in the same spot above the hand no matter what side of the arm its on

had the same feeling once i realized ppl literally meant they're seeing images in their heads. pretty crazy how different we could all think and not realize. hearing is the only sense i can imagine so the way you and I process information must be completely different in shape and there was a high chance we would never realize

the fact that in all of human history no two people have ever had the same experience of the universe just makes me go crazy if i think about it too long. your consciousness is a completely different shape from my consciousness! i will never know how you see red and you will never know how i see it! fuck!
