#riptidesiren's rambles

I should be working on my term papers, I should be working on my art, alternatively I should be working on my Dramione Fanfiction.

INSTEAD I recently (casually, unknowingly) rewatched Star Wars, plus the newest trilogy for the first time, and what can I say. Now I’m falling down the Reylo rabbit hole aaaaaaah

This scene, this hug, his expression… haunts me since I’ve seen it. Adam Driver’s Kylo Ren/Ben Solo is just chef’s kiss. Makes me emotional just thinking about it and since I still need to practice my art, but my whole mind is just one Reylo obsessed Ben Solo fan girl at the moment, this was the compromise for motivation to get some long overdue practice in. Kinda glad I didn’t get his exact expression down cause maaaan, ok bye I’ll go cry now replaying that scene on loop in my mind while being delulu on how it ended.

Oh and on the progress: overlaying the original on the practice and playing with the opacity is a neat way for me to see my mistakes better, the end result is after I went in with mainly the liquifying tool and some couple extra brush strokes to get closer to the og and fix the immediate mistakes made visible with this little game.

Me looking like a surprised Pikachu at my own tags after I finally read the first volume of Veil, and they make a white rabbit reference too and Alice in Wonderland is her favourite story on top!

I have discovered Veil by Kotteri. Tumblr, do your thing and flood my page with them. I want to drown in them. See them wherever I go. Pleeease!
