Where I Lose Myself: The Quiet Power of Crafting

What activities do you lose yourself in? There’s something sacred about the moments when we lose track of time—when the world fades away, and we’re completely immersed in something that stirs our soul. For me, that moment always begins with creating. Crafting has been my personal sanctuary, the place I go when I need to feel centered, calm, and quietly empowered. It’s been a while since I’ve…

#klance #halloween au #im projecting on the internet my own impostor syndrome #i feel that im awful and should be learning how to draw instead of writing shitty fics #and when i want to write a post and share a little doodle or smth - 'sorry' is right between the lines and its so frustrating #like???? nobody probably cares #im either here or im not #and if i need to finish that little abomination of a fic then so be it you'd think people wouldnt mind too much #and would still want to listen to my captions and see whatever silly doodle however silly it is as long as its true #..............but what if its all redundant #what if i cant draw after i had to flip my entire routine upside down #and will forever chase a thrill of feeling like a prolific artist and it will be always out of reach now #what if people scroll past my art and feel nothing now #what if world is filled with people who kinda hate klance but stay out of reflex and not bc its their deeply routed source of comfort #what if i reached an artistic plateau and will never be good enough #what if this is the limit of my 'talent'#what if i will forever love the projects i want to share but will always hate the execution of it wanting to fix it fix it fix it learn mor #i keep reading the little notes i get on orders #some screenshots i saved #i find good words and opinions and love letters to art as a whole #and i feel insufficient #subpar #i drew a comic about it to an old poem and still havent finished it #there is a point of trying your best when it stops feeling like a challenge and feels like a failure #its the moment where you keep going of course #and yet #there are emotions im sure nobody shares on social media bc we just try to get through them #but who else will take it better than tumblr tags #either way if im less around its because im dealing with creational self-hatred and artistic ambitions #but on the other hand arent all artists like that? i ran out of tag space btw have an awesome weekend

hi i wanted to draw my own au so have a snippet of scene i rewrote like 12 times and will likely rewrite again

#was thinking about captioning this with uhhh the written version of the scene in my drafts #but its mostly just dialogue #so youre not missing much #i hope i convey the emotion well through expression #sigh part of the reason im hesitant about making this au a comic instead of a fic is that like. most of what ive written for it is prose-#-that doesnt translate that well visually?#a lot of the storytelling for this au i think is told better with narration #so if/when i ever like. share the whole story #it will likely just be a fic #but i suck at sharing unfinished writing on tumblr so what i post here is mostly scenes i wrote turned into comics #<- partially to gauge interest! i like knowing if people care about what im making #but also partially just because i REALLY like this au. its super self indulgent #i know i only draw angsty shit for it but i swear its about friendship ok. like half of what ive written is really sweet #.the other half is actually angst BUT THATS IRRELEVANT. ok normal tags now #doodles #ghost roxas au #roxas #sora #kingdom hearts #hmm i dont think this one translated as well as it couldve. its meant to be a sort of slow build to outright anger #bc its like. soras confusion + frustration finally building to the point hes yelling #but it feels sort of sudden here so idk. could also be that theres no context to this #roxas' reaction too reads a bit differently than i wrote it as (more angry than like. ptsd response for lack of a better descriptor)#WHATEVER WHATEVER DONE RAMBLING IN THE TAGS I HOPE YOU LIKE THE ART

mtdd week day 5 - au

idol au moment yayyy. they have history

#mtddweek2024 #i think this would be shortly after Susie joins #she’s not very confident in her place in the group yet but through shenanigans she follows flamberge on this goose chase #and they get to bond a little bit and bla bla bla #flamberge doesn’t care much but i think being surrounded by so many reserved people she’s kind of excited to witness drama up close for onc #also tried to make meta’s dialogue a little less formal since he’s yknow. Not a knight here lol #debated having Kirby just call him meta but #this au is already self indulgent might as well go all in #kirbyposting #my art or something #meta knight #king dedede #metadede #kirby #flamberge kirby #susie haltmann #idol au #quinn does comics #sorry divorced mtdd is so funny to me lol #this is incredibly unserious but i got stuck on whether or not to include the bet thing because maybe that’s. a bit much #but i dont think any of them would care enough to investigate otherwise lol..?#im gonna speculate the bet was Zan’s idea tho

They ask you to come to work at a time like this, then write you up when you can't get the stains out of your uniform.

Holy shit.

I can paint.

#artists of tumblr #painting #traditional art #this is my 6th painting #ever #I’m kind of in shock #and just so proud of myself #particularly because I wanted to give up on the blobs of paint halfway through #it wasn’t coming together #but I persevered #thinking it’ll be crap but PRACTICE #and then suddenly some lighter values and it wasn’t crap #🥹#mental health #self care #creative self care #artists on tumblr #resiliencewithin paints

It really just be like that sometimes

#just my thoughts #im kinda giving up on art and socializing rip #a husk of my younger more enthusiastic no trauma having self #i used to not care at all about being validated or having friends i was alone 24/7 #after going through toxic relationships and trauma i cannot stop feeling like i should kms just for existing #i need to figure out how to get insurance so i can see a psychiatrist and get back on some pills or something #also now that im an adult and not a minor anymore i feel like i have to kms

There was gonna be more but, well, y'know 😒

So last night I got struck by the idea lightning and started spontaneously working on a Mafiafell self insert au because I'm insane. Underfell is already basically my favorite au, and while Mafiafell has it's problems (glances surreptitiously at that one infamous fic and comic) I think it has a lot of potential

#art #digital art #my art #mafiafell #mafiafell sans #sans #undertale au #mafiafell au #self ship #mafiafell self ship #the idea is They meet because he gets “cornered” by some rival family grunts being a little too confident for their own good #but before he can do anything #all of them get shot in the legs and go down within a minute #And Angel just casually pops in through the entrance to the alley with hands in pockets #dressed extremely convincingly like a dude #cuz it's the 1920s and she's both female and brown and human in a predominantly monster city #Something something “I don't care about this #I just don't like seeing people fighting dirty.“#He just thinks she's a particularly spunky 20 something dude #But he likes her moxie. He tries to give her some cash like a reward and she waves him off like “I don't need handouts. Keep your money.”#Gets a glimpse of purple eyes from under her hat and gets even more interested cuz what's a human *mage* doing wandering around those parts?#anyways thats all i got

still working on tweening and etc but small self-indulgent sneak peek hehe

#my art #wip #bocchiposting #i wholly underestimated the amount of tweening needed and the amount of layers #originally i wanted to cover the entire song with parts for kita and bocchi #but given my current health condition + having work i think i'll just finish small chunks first and then see how much i can do b4 school #i can definitely finish the intro but i really want to draw in bocchi for a specific part sdjfhdskfjks #unfortunately i currently have the constitution of a sick victorian child! Any stress or strain sends me to the bed!#so i cannot crank this out within 5 hours like i used to be able to #the song is mesmerizer obv credits to that #it really has been a process of oh im just gonna do something small for fun oh no this needs more for a better streamline #halfway through i was like. would this have been easier if i just used. live 2d. probably. but i am too far in.#i need a good video editor program so bad but all the tutorials online are for AE and i do not have the money for that </3 #and the next best option is apparently blender and i've done a few tutorials but i have never been able to retain the information <3 #the learning curve is seriously hard and i don't have the time for that either </3 time is money fr #i tell myself to not feel guilty for drawing when i could be studying bc this is needed <3 this is self indulgent <3 #self care!!!!!! rahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!#kk rambles

Been a minute since I've been able to draw or even post anything. And that's cuz I've been busy af with a job that's been slowly killing me for the last 8 months. But it's all good; I'm actually leaving that shithole at the end of the week. Yay! Maybe that means I can open up commissions again since I'll actually have time for them? Who's to say...

Anyway! Had a rough weekend at Fan Expo Chicago last week, and I've kinda had this in mind to draw ever since my disappointing interaction with Neil Newbon. He was very nice, but it felt pretty clear that he only really cared about Astarion. And, like, to a degree I get it? Astarion seems like a cool character that means a lot to a lot of people, but to act like no one cares anymore about Resident Evil Village cuz it's an "older game" (his words, not mine), kinda killed my mood for the weekend. Not to mention coming back with COVID. That was also a bummer...

*I* still love Heisenberg, at least. And if I'm the only one, then so be it. ❤️‍🩹

#scammy art #scammy talks too much #shut up scammy chan #con venting #resident evil village #resident evil 8 #karl heisenberg #karl heisenburg fanart #self indulgent #neil newbon #mostly just needed to get out the sad feels #I could go on about this weekend #worst con I've ever attended #spent the majority of the weekend in tears #and not of joy #also I don't dislike Neil or think less of him #this is just me dealing with my own disappointment #Neil was otherwise very nice and stuck around well after the con hall closed to make sure he got through everyone #I just think it's sad that he only really cared to engage with this one character #he didn't even have any prints of other characters outside of a general RE print of all the characters he'd done #and honestly I'm also just...kinda sad he didn't like the little Heisenberg plush I'd made...#I know how stupid that sounds but I worked hard on that and it meant a lot to me #and people in line were all excited by it #so to hear Neil be all not interested was just...kind've a bummer...#so yeah...just...in my feelings a lot lately and needed to get it out...#also drew Heisenberg in a way I don't hate for once and I wanted to share that much at least
