i was REALLY surprised i hadnt seen anyone animate over anything from the prevenge script reading yet, so i took matters into my own hands. i thought this bit was hilarious
audio from here
#transformers#maccadam#tailgate#ultra magnus#mtmte#lip syncing is actually a lot more fun than i expected#but tailgate's mask probably saved me like eight hours lmao#speaking of him i'm REALLY happy with how expressive he ended up being#i really didn't expect that kind of deformation to mesh well with the... uh... mesh.#so i was pleasantly surprised when it turned out as great as it did#mags' model was hard to figure out because he is SO FREAKING INCONSISTENT IN THE COMICS#but that also meant i got to cherry pick the features i liked best/that were simplest to model so... still a win#tailgate's blissfully consistent tho. his hood thing gave me a lot of trouble but i managed#this is my first time working with a lot of geometric shapes so i ran into a lot of road blocks but i did it!! yay!!

Haunted Car Au part 13
Previous. Masterpost
“You done figuring out the sound files yet?” Duke asked while tapping on the hood of the Batmobile.
He was excited to hear a campy “Yes, Sir!” Come out of the open windows of the car.
“Neat, first off, any files that have your name in it?” He was a little disappointed, but still snorted to hear the tragic ‘Noooooo’ from Darth Vader.
“I think Red Robin has some pronoun type files in there, what are yours?” A mix of sir’s, dude's, and bro's were played until Duke had to stop the guy.
“Ok, what about age?” He wasn't expecting to get a straight answer, but when the car played a Scooby-Doo cut of ‘those meddling kids’, he was confused.
“So a kid?” Duke questioned. He got a weird mix of 'Ehhh', 'Kinda', and 'close enough' type files.
“We can worry about that later, any ideas how you got stuck?” A short ‘Nope’ with a pop on the P played.
Talking to the car guy was strange. Getting answers could be easy or turn into 20 questions trying to clarify an answer. So far, Duke knew the person:
is male or male presenting
a meta
has no clue how he possessed the car
has a good understanding of current memes
was possibly in their teens (probably a bit younger than Duke, but older than Daimian)
was a street kid? (When asked where he lived the car played “Why should I worry” from an older Disney movie about homeless animals in New York or something. He had to look it up.)
has a good sense of humor
and is taking their situation in stride.
Duke really had to wonder what their life has been where this is not a vast problem to fix…. And whether or not he should argue his ‘notification tone’ being a choir singing.
He really does not get paid enough for this, but it is better than the other stuff Gotham throws at the Bats.
“Mind if I get you up on the lift and check the engine? Might give us some clues.” After an affirmative from the car guy, Duke got to work.

#dp x dc#dc x dp#dpxdc#haunted car au#not totally happy with how this one turned out#but dialog is kinda wierd when one side is memes and audio clips.#but hey its is getting closer to the fun bits#but slow plot lines for now#next chapter amuses me though#also please remember I am using more the Batman Wayne adventures mixed with cherry picking of other comic runs#so.... come characters might be a bit ooc#that being said#next chapeter has plenty of cursing and simular language#but yaknow...

no "both are terrible" option bc we know that, i'm asking which would make you want to leave the venue and ask for a refund if you witnessed it more
#hozier#the mountain goats#this is not that serious bc i get people have personal relationships with some songs#esp in the context of relationships that i know nothing about and therefore have no place to judge#also that guy was apparently running out of time and didn't know what cherry wine was about so he just picked it bc it sounded nice#but i keep thinking of this question in my head i want YOU to answer it#poll

You know what we should bring back?
Older christianity. I mean the anti government, anti military, community based christianity. The one that cared the most about peace, equality, mercy, kindness, and radical love. The one with shared property. The one that didn't conform to society but instead existed mostly outside of it. The one where noone considered one sin worse than another because in the end, we are all sinners trying our best to be better.
#“progressive christians are ignoring the bible except for ”love thy neighbour“”#yeah well LOVE OVER VERSES#quit it. im tired of this. just. can we just be nice to everyone?? please?? peace and love on planet earth??#“being gay is a sin tho” “wow this is so immodest” do i look like i care? does jesus look like he cares? i dont think so.#go stab out your eye or smth if you wanna live by the law so badly huh???#funny how suddenly it isnt literal and shouldnt be done because humanity learned and grew since that was written#*points to the verses used to justify homophobia* i mean literally this whole concept changed since then it isnt even the same thing#screaming at the top of my lungs while punching the wall like please please dont cherry pick the bible#“*blank* is a sin” do you like seafood tho?? is your clothing from mixed fabrics?? did you shave??#im just saying that maybe you should let the spirit guide you instead of following the law blindly. what do i know tho. im just a stranger.#queer christian#progressive christianity#i guess??#my religious rants#leftist christianity? anarchist christianity? i do not know??

poor baby 😢 I wonder what the paraphilias in question are-
oh.
is the "queer" community ever going to acknowledge how defending bdsm and kink culture leads to protecting predators or do we have to pretend these are normal things to say. @gendiebrainrotreceipts
#receipts#anti kink culture#tra misogyny#tra ableism#bc fr associating neurodivergency with rale is so fucking awful#and it's always “not all trans women! you're cherry picking”#but wayyyy too many#I really hope someone sees this and wakes up to the reality of what tras defend constantly#wren rambles

I am in love with your art style. I love all your jjk art, it’s like stitching back the pieces of my shattered heart. Your art is so soothing and has such a warm feel, I love it. Also if you don’t mind me asking what program do you use for your art, and do you have any tips? I strive to someday create art that gives the same feeling of comfort as yours. Thank you <3
Thank you so much for the kind message! I'm actually in the middle of making another jjk piece but it's been a while so I've been trying to remember and consolidate my process. This ask came at a great time hehe
I use photoshop for most of my art pieces but I think there are a lot of cheaper alternatives (procreate on Ipad, clipstudio paint, medibang etc) that would work just as well. As for tips, I have a technical and an emotional one:
My technical tip would be to use references!! Especially if you're just starting out, it's SO IMPORTANT imo for catching mistakes especially with anatomy, lighting and perspective. And by reference I mean real life photos. I think you can be inspired by other artists' work, but there is the danger of picking up their bad habits if you only use their work for reference. I would recommend sticking mainly to real life and looking to other artists only for resolving specific stylistic details once you have a solid grasp of your fundamentals.
I would start with a rough sketch first of whatever you want to draw and then look for refs that match the mood and tone you want to go for. Get the idea down first and draw from the heart. Then the refs come in to help with the specifics (ex. what a window looks like, how someone would hold a cigarette) The jump from the rough to the clean line version is an amalgamation of all the little things you learn along the way. For example, on one day, I learned that clothing folds usually start at one point and spread out. Then another day, I learned how to do 1 point perspective and so on and so forth. Then all those tidbits slowly add up to help you get better and better.
2. My second tip would be to understand what you want to convey with your artwork. If it's fanart, what about the media that you're interacting with draws you in? It doesn't always need to be a complex answer, sometimes you just want to draw a character because you think they're hot and that's totally valid imo.
I occasionally tutor very young artists and oftentimes, they will tell me that they want to draw like X artist or X painting/piece of media. I always try to encourage them to go deeper. What about that drawing resonates with them and what specifics are occurring in the picture to make them feel that way? For example, I recently realized I love environment heavy drawings not for the background itself but because they ground the characters and seeing them do mundane things makes them feel more real to me.
For the example below, the whole set was to explore friendship and mental health. Sometimes just having someone there who listens and is willing to talk with you can make a huge difference.
Once you know the purpose of your art, then I think it makes the decision making for the rest of the process much easier. What type of lighting scenario conveys support and comfort? I went with dusk. Then I started searching up references for dusk lighting. Couldn't find the ref I actually used for colour but a quick google will show you lots of similar options.
What kind of poses feel in character for Shoko vs Geto? What is the focus of the picture? As much as I love details, I think sometimes they can actually take away from the main message. For example, if I had rendered the lamp on the right a lot more, it would've distracted from the main point of the picture so I tried to keep that and the background in general simple (still something I need to improve on haha).
Then those extra technical things (value structure, cool vs warm light, reflective lighting, connotations behind colours) you pick up along the way are all there to help you better communicate what you want to convey with your art.
Okay I lied one more tip, be patient and learn to appreciate the process. Like with any skill, there are a lot of technical aspects that you have to study and practice. I think because the end result is so visual and easily accessible in comparison to other hobbies/jobs, it really cripples beginners. Even with writing, you won't realize a book is good until you learn how to read. With art, you can resonate with a painting without having drawn a single line yourself.
I think beginners and even professionals see a lot of beautiful finished artwork and get enticed by that only to be discouraged when they find their process/finished work didn't end up the way they wanted it to look. Treat it like you would learning how to write. The fundamentals can be tedious and do take time to drill into your head, but learning them will help you SO MUCH with the creative fun parts. You can't write a poem without first taking the time to learn the alphabet, spelling and grammar. You're also probably going to write a bunch of shitty poems before you write that one good one, but that's okay because each piece lets you experiment and exercise your voice. Art is the same thing, don't rush it! Enjoy the process and celebrate your improvements.
#omg i typed way too much but i have a lot to say!!#thank you for the ask this was actually so therapeutic lmao#ask#my last advice...is to be selective about who you take advice from#so you can just ignore all this or cherry pick what resonates with you and your process

'vampires are bad at art', factoid just statistical error. most vampires are quite decent at their crafts. Marius De Romanus who paints like all his works were made by AI is an outlier and should not have been counted
#listen. I think Anne had SOME idea when she said it with that disconnected from humanity quality BUT#Lestat was clearly still good at acting and it's art so I think she was cherry picking and saying whatever#therefore this is my opinion#ALSO#they clearly have the emotional capacity to create#they just don't put in the work and that's not a vampire thing it's a 'too impatient or not interested that much actually' thing#except Marius who's technically masterful but has no imagination#also show vampires are able to make art. Sam wrote a Sam Beckett play. Santiago could act. Lestat could act and can sing.#Armand had questionable taste but clearly not talentless either.#Louis would have been good at photography if he didn't try to imitate someone else and got his hand at modern digital camera#so yeah#but show vampires aren't inhuman. they're ultra-human. too human. more impulsive more emotional#more concerned with morality despite pretending otherwise#(by concern I don't mean adhering to rules more purposely picking and choosing but aware of them at all times)#ANYWAY it's a joke post ✌️#iwtv#interview with the vampire#amc iwtv

analysing mclennon feels like being an academic and pouring over historical texts and connecting the dots between passages because you basically are doing exactly that
#if old white guys can come up with their own beatles theories and write books and be taken seriously in an academic space…#then so should we#i trust beatles tumblr users opinions infinitely more than the opinions of 87% of music journalists out there#ppl will complain about beatles rpf fans cherry-picking evidence as if music journalists aren’t 100x worse abt doing just that#anyway i just really love mclennon lore and finding sources to support our theories#feels like putting my half-finished history degree to good (questionable) use#also enjoy that mclennon genuinely just feels very different to basically any other rpf ship#the beatles#paul mccartney#john lennon#mclennon#beatles rpf

honestly i don't expect anything from someone who's activism begins and ends on two words
#“happy pride” girl shut the fuck up it's not a cute look when you're ignoring your fans urging you to speak against genocide and you run#away from that social media i don't want you speaking about pride ever because our liberation was born out of sacrifices so for you to say#happy pride you'll have to believe in freedom of people to live and guess who aren't given choice about that currently? yeah. you cannot#cherry pick what part of poltics & activism you want to speak about and ignore the rest#i have so much more to say and mostly it's just anger so i will stop at that#yep tagging this as well wtv#anti taylor swift

Thank you for all the recent Homelander art, truly. I don’t have a single artistic rod/cone in my eye, but the way you draw him is so expressive and fluid that it’s changing the way I’m perceiving his scenes. I feel like I glimpse your version of him in the body language of that milkshake sipping scene with Ryan 😏
Thank you for the art and the occasional meta. ❤️ I’m glad the first half of season 4 is more inspiring than the entirety of season 3. Implying the second half might be worse? Perhaps. At least his vengeful god aspirations are couched as emancipation (heh) and remind me of your Homelander on the throne surrounded by the petrified Seven.
PS- The fact that you also just happen to be into Elvis, Michael Jackson, Lawrence of Arabia, Peter Pan, and Russian animation is both awesome and never fails to weird me out— what a hyper specific list of obsessions, er interests to share with someone.
It's my pleasure. For as much as I whine about this show, I love it. And it genuinely feels nice to be invested in it again ! Even if it means I have to pull a Sage and turn my brain off for a chunk of it. Here's hoping you didn't just jinx it and the rest of the season continues to be tolerable ( all it really needs to do is not be worse than S3. That's doable, right ? . . . . . Right??? )
The fact that my spin on Homelander takes up any space in your wonderful mind is such a win for me. And I loved that milkshake scene, so I'm twice as tickled.
Our shared eclectic taste(s) weirds me out too . . . but in a very excited, 'same hat!' sort of way. Occasionally you'll reblog something and I'll have to physically restrain myself from swinging into your inbox and saying 'You like -insert extremely specific thing here- too ? ! '
. . . .Would it be narcissistic for me to compliment your taste ?
#My online socialization is so limited - I have no idea if it's common to run into people who like this many of your interests#especially when they're as cherry-picked as mine ( er . . . *ours* )#regardless - it's a nice feeling.#Trashtalk#Deliciouskeys#Thanks for the sweet message ! <3
