In 2019 I drew skeksis from 'dark crystal' in the Don Bluth's artstyle. I haven't touched them since then, but I've been thinking a lot about it. Now that I feel comfortable with animation, I thought I could try myself on them. I got pretty lazy on this one, but I wanted to try it.

Chicken Science Swednesday: Chicken as a liquid

Many people are unaware that some chickens, when exposed to direct sunlight, become puddles:

There is no reason to be alarmed, as this process is 100% reversible. Indeed, most chickens will return to their solid form within a few minutes of melting, without any external assistance.

Don't worry if you were unaware of this. Even chickens who are not currently puddles are often confused by these encounters:

Some more previews of the Skeksis in the game (top left is an interpretation of skekSa based on how she was described in the book rather than the more well known coverart + some inspiration from skekCru, the Mariner design from TDC manga Legends). Ignore the weird pastel coloured backgrounds, I chose them at random while inking thes birbs so as not to get eyestrain from a white screen. Progress is slow but going well, only three Skeksis remain to be coloured in now. Feeling a bit conflicted about whether I can use official soundtrack music or not (there is another older TDC fangame (maybe two) that did and didn't have a copyright problem). I will probably need to start seeking out copyright free music just to be on the safe side <_<u

Seladon’s Revenge

[autismmydearwatson]

The best scene in the Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is when the Chamberlain approaches the Scientist a week after framing him and causing him to very painfully lose his eye like "heyyy.... I know I framed you for something that was entirely my fault which caused you to be tortured as punishment... but we're still friends right?" And the Scientist, with a replacement eye, just says "whatever cunt. I'll walk it off"

Finished my 5th rewatch of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and I still adore it with all my heart. I cried again as well.

I’m so frustrated and heartbroken that we’re not getting a second season. Everyday I pray that it’ll get picked up by another network or get a book/comic sequel but that seems more unlikely with each passing day. I love this show and I’d say it’s in my top 3 favorite shows of all time.

It’s beautiful, fun, and has great characters. I’ll always revisit AoR if I need something fun to watch. I just wish we’d get to see the rest of the story.

I love The Dark Crystal and I’ll continue to sing its praises til the day I die

On my first watch of Age of Resistance I wondered why everyone treated the Scientist so poorly when he is probably the single most important Skeksis in the Castle.

And on later watches, I realized that’s the point.

He is truly indispensable and if he and the other Skeksis realized that, he’d be a threat to the Emperor’s power.

So he’s treated as essential and also as a figure of mockery. He’s relied on but not respected. Except maybe as lip service.

Very similar to some jobs in our world.

get this guy outta here!!!

It's the 42nd anniversary of TDC today! Thought I would celebrate by sharing a bit more of preview of the game. I keep flip-flopping between a serious tone and a silly one XD Can it be both???

This post was meant to be two videos and a few images, but tumblr only allows me to upload 1 video at a time. I'll upload the rest as a separate post.

Oh yeah, and this game is based more in the og continuity (80s lore + Legends; although technically this story is set BEFORE Legends), so some lore things are not going to line up with AoR, just a heads up.

(that white menu at the bottom of the screen will be absent for the final version of the game, it's just there now to make things easier for me while I work on the game)
