Day 5: Saturation hell

In 2019 I found ghoulkiss’s monster girl maker and by extension got into candy gore and while I wasn’t colouring my drawings at the time, in my head they looked like this. I still like drawing candy gore. It’s very fun

Old art below <3

These design were taken directly from ghoulkiss’s monster girl maker btw. I had a bad habit of directly coping off of dress up games

Behold, The Meme Jacket

This jacket arrangement position is called "LOOK AT MY ARMPITS."

Here's a close-up of the collar and lapels with the jacket laying normally:

The snaps on the lapels hold them open, but can also be snapped closed, which is nice on windy days.

Here's the front of the jacket as it's intended to be seen:

I was very particular about how I designed and arranged these: much like how the back only has color in the middle, I wanted to keep the bright colors to the center. The two brightly colored patches are meant to read like a two-panel comic, or some sort of call-response thing, whatever. The patches along the bottom are meant to read left to right, almost like a four-panel comic. (The Awesome Face patch is just there because it fit.)

What's not obvious from these pictures is that there are inside pockets, which connect to the zippered side pockets! I don't tend to actually use this feature very much, but it does make the pocket space hugely tall in there.

Another feature I don't tend to use very much is the zip-off sleeves. I think I've only ever taken the sleeves off once (plus a few times when sewing patches on, to make it easier to reach where I was working).

The googly eye buttons are holding up moderately well - I might need to replace one of the eyes by next year. If you're gonna do this yourself, you gotta put a metal keyring of the same size behind the googly eye! Wrap the keyring in a piece of fabric (I used the tubular bit from the bottom edge of a t-shirt), and sew it to the button band. Then, glue the googly eye onto the fabric with enough glue to also glue the fabric to the keyring. (I used superglue for this.)

All in all, it's been an incredibly fun project, and one that I get lots and lots of use out of! I'm sure I'll add to it at some point, but I'm calling its current state "done (v1.0)".

I never quite finished these two cards the first time i tried making a PJO major arcana and I never posted them. I really like the designs though so I’ll probably try to do something similar when I draft them again

Why the hell is Lucifer on the Gacha if we ain't got nothing for his big dicked ass??

I'm waiting!! Don't add him just to tease with his healers

( Also funny how we get info dumps after info dumps about Leviathan but Lucifer gets nothing. It's like the reverse in Obey Me xD )

Whatever problems aside, I adore the painterly (?) take they did with the designs in the One Piece remake- It's obviously not 1:1 but the coloring style reminds me a lot of Oda's earlier color-spreads (it's the white highlights tbh):

It's most likely just concept art but there's just so much life being breathed into East Blue that shows how much care was being put into the world, e.g. the culture of each island, a focus on making the world seem alive and lived in, what materials/items fit already existing characters.

One thing I love that they pointed out: "Themes in the original manga is deep. Like war, or stepping in topics of race. It allows all ages of readers to ponder about it and be entertained at the same time. This is the most intriguing part of the manga in my opinion. This is the fascination of the work."

As a fan of One Piece's themes and character-work (of which they also brought up- highly encourage anyone to watch the full video!), it was nice to see that emphasized. While most of what they showcased were the visuals for the anime, recognizing the heart of One Piece's story made me incredibly happy- even though that should be a given lmao. It's just so cool.

At the end of the day, I'm literally a manga reader so I don't tend to keep up with new other stuff, but what I'm hoping is for this to rope in new viewers who are afraid to start the original One Piece (especially with how notorious regular watchers say the pacing is, esp post-timeskip, + outdated SEs, etc.).

Ultimately I understand that it's not really geared towards me. I'd say read the manga if pacing is such a problem but I know it all boils down to preference in the end. All this presents is another lens for me to view the story in, and personally, it's nothing less.
