Just finally finished dr2 🎉🎉🎉
#damn it was so good#ik i said that i dont think i will like dr2 more than thh#bur honeatly... maybe#i think i like the overall aesthetic of the first one better#and the story and mysteries more for the second#i dont think i really prefer either ones characters though#i think the dr2 had objectively more interestingly designed characters#but i didnt connect with some of them like I did with thh#so its give and take imo#i do think overall i like the protag-deuterag-antag better for dr2 aswell#cause as much as i love makoto kyoko and byakuya together#i individually care a lot abt hajime chiaki and nagito and i think theyre all just more interesting#but no one does it like the thh trio imo so maybe not 💀#idk sorry for this big random ass review#i just had to talk abt it

Here are some Season 2 Arcane GIF comparisons before and after I color and sharpen them! | Season 1 Comparison GIFs
#arcane#arcaneedit#gifmaking#reminder that if ur not a fan of the coloring and sharpening then i dont need to hear ur opinion so fuck off and make your own gifs :)#sooo yeah!!! just sharing this very old coloring comparison i use from time to time to make sure i follow a certain peg for my gifs#but i dont really follow it to the T of course#and now i will use the tags to rant/comment about my coloring process lmao#ok so.... arcane s2 is SOOOOO much brighter than s1 i am so so so thankful we have such bright scenes instead of all the dark ones in s1#because it makes my life so much easier#that being said my coloring isnt really perfect i still cant handle more complex tones like the mel gif......#i used to have a more stylized coloring wayyy back in s1 (esp when u look at my old gifs) but i kinda realized i had to change it#so i scrapped all my old psds and now coloredit EVERYTHING MANUALLY#hence why sometimes i gif the same scene but theyre colored different since i never use a preset PSD now#however it became way more tedious to make gifs... so yeah.... lmao#but in the end i like it more!!! i like that my new coloring just basically matches the show more but is just brighter and more saturated#unless ofc i dont like the tones of the original show i.e. the vi gif you see there where its super green gray???? idk i dont like it so#i recolored the entire thing#anyways thats really it coloring will always be something i continue to try to improve on but recently ive just been v busy so i just#speed color and edit everything and dont rlly take all adjustments into account so no more complex tones and#i just stick to basic things#oh right sharpening! so for sharpening i use a very basic setting: just 500 px and 0.4 radius which is what i use for almost everything#i also dont add noise bc the landscape photographer in me does NOT like it LMFAOOOOOOOOOO#but yeah thats really it for sharpening oh i also use 4k sources as much as possible bc it gives the best quality and if#i cant find any source i just upscale everything by myself then crop stuff again back to 540 px and imo it really just does look better#personal tag

Hellsing 2002 calendar illustration.
Ein wunderliche und erschröckliche Hystori von einem großen Wüttrich genant Dracole wayda Der do so ganz unkristenliche marrter hat angelegt die mensche, als mit spissen als auch die leut zu Tod geslyffen
A wondrous and frightening story about a great berserk called Dracula the voivode who inflicted such unchristian tortures such as with stakes and also dragged people to death
#hellsing#alucard#kouta hirano#translation was found in a comment by u/lazyfoxheart on r/Kurrent#fun fact this is the highest quality version of this image that exists online#i know because i've been looking forever for a version that's clear enough to actually read what hirano wrote under '1443'#but there weren't any so i had to take matters into my own hands#the real image on the back of the guidebook is only 2 inches tall so i had to take this with my smartphone and will my hands not to shake#anyway i'm pretty sure it's supposed to say Eğrigöz (the location vlad was imprisoned) so yeah. thank you hirano very cool#if i might rant for a sec it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure that out because i didn't have the guidebook at first#and in the images i could find online that part was just a blur that looked suspiciously like a person's signature and i was like. who tf#i was thinking matthias corvinus since he issued some political propaganda against vlad iirc but it didn't match his signature on wikipedia#then i thought it might be vlad II dracul's since he probably had to sign an agreement to send his sons over as hostages at some point#but that didnt seem right either so i kept skimming vlad's wiki page#and then i was like goddammit...hirano.....you just misspelled Eğrigöz didn't you.. ....#i maybe should've made a separate post dedicated to this instead of writing a novel in the tags but eh#the hellsing brainrot runs deep#also- i put it in the source link at the bottom of the post but the german inscription is copied off a real woodcut of vlad from 1491#except instead of depicting him as an adult hirano drew him as a child which gives the inscription a very different feel imo#the one final thing that interests me about this is the fact that hirano published this calendar in 2002#which is REALLY early in the series. like this was before volume 5 came out??#i have no idea why he decided to do a massive spoiler drop in a random piece of japan-only merch#sandwiched between a drawing of alucard as john travolta from saturday night fever and integra as a fish no less#it makes me really curious to know what the fan response to this was back then. like did people even know who this was#maybe im just an idiot and everyone back then was like 'ah yes its alucard as a 12 year old. how very informative'

atp when a customer asks me why i wear a mask i just say "cuz i think it's funny" and they never know how to respond
#msposts#text#anytime anyone bothers to ask its usually because they think theres no way i just want to wear one and someone is forcing me#something abt “its just funny” shortcircuits them#i guess people are more prepped to give you shit if youre like oh it helps others or me or its just in case or whatever#but “for the hell of it” is not what they expect#i had one guy tell me to take it off and i was like no its funny and he just packed his shit and left#weird thing to get mad abt tho like why do u care so much ???#who cares if the evidence or whatever abt it helping is wrong or not its not doing anything to anyone otherwise#just weird controlling behaviour imo

Can you draw arjuna and junao with their outfits switched??🙏🏻
Sure!
#'why is arjuna covering his titties? is it because youre bad at drawing nipples?' ehehehe nah probably not because of that hehe...🚶♀️#i'd like to think junao is enthralled of everything his original self gives to/shares with him btw he's like. thinking about spinning in#that big coat. like a princess trying new dress yknow#this also got me taking a good look at their references again. juna is so formal neat and clean everything about him screams#perfection and professionalism imo#junao is much more 'breezy'?. more skin exposed idk how to say it ig it certainly makes him look more boyish than arjuna but only in 3rd asc#as i see it#also divined as well for all that golden armory#even though arjuna was talked about stuff like being 'endowed hero' and has that bond ce showing his treasury he just has the humble look...#once again idk how to say it but i mean. you can see hes very human. you can see the concept of man and god there in their outfits and i#think its neat. so very neat. amazing rly#anon ask#fgo#arjuna#arjuna alter#yes this is consider#junajuna#too#ttls gallery

The pokemon anime subreddit fascinates and frustrates me on equally deep levels
#smiling and blinking innocently. long tags ahead :) being normal :)🌸☀️☘️✌️💐#i'm such a 'minding my own business' person in fandom. i feel like my usual reaction to seeing takes I disagree with is#'well. people probably hate some of my takes so whatever'. perhaps even the ones i'm about to share#but. man.#it's like a portal to 2010 forum discourse but goh and serena are there this time.#deeply fascinated by the repetition of old ship wars too????#what do you mean we're still having legitimate 'but drew and gary are mean' discourse 😭#i mean by all means they should keep arguing because mostly i'm just glad that the wider pokeani sphere remembers drew at all#but that being said i wonder what kind of rivalry these people would have wanted instead?????#because there's other rivalries we could point to where they weren't air-quotes 'mean'. but we have those and people ignore them lol#because they're-imo- usually less engaging and dynamic. except for dawn and zoey who have never done anything wrong in their lives.#like we COULD give everyone the supportive happy rival experience a la may and grace or whatever but that's just not the SAME#and augh. taking psychic damage and trying to be normal but that's the THINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG OKAY#are Gary and Drew needlessly mean in early episodes? yeah lmao. i'm not arguing on that. they suck ❤️ completely insufferable.#b u t#there's that line. right. the line where it slowly slides into backhanded compliments too and giving that motivation-#-for their rival to work harder and the fact that they want that reaction and attention from this one person so badly.#like shipping aside I really do think that the friction of the Gary/Ash and May/Drew rivalries is what made them GOOD.#and yeah sometimes it was out of line but also that's just how the dub is as a whole tbh. they just said whatever shit they could 😭#AND BACK TO THE BEING NICE THING. Ash and May both got growth from their nice rivalries but not what they got from Gary/Drew.#it's different types of growth and lessons and they needed both kinds from different sources. I'd argue the rougher rivalries taught more?#regardless of your opinions on the characters themselves you can't deny that Gary/Paul/Drew/Harley/etc- the rivals that pushed A&M-#had the biggest impact on their growth over the rivals that didn't push. note that 'friends' and 'rivals' are different categories for this#I'm pitting. like. gary and paul against morrison and ritchie and not against dawn or pikachu or brock or whatever. different convo.#but it was growth out of spite to be better than the jackass rival at first and then that CHANGED INTO MUTUAL BETTERMENT#AND WANTING TO BE BETTER ✨FOR✨ AND ✨WITH✨ THEIR RIVAL. OKAY. (re: gary and drew specifically)#and as a result of all of this. drew and gary did get better to be fair!#well gary did kind of just start picking on goh instead gjkhsdkfj (joking) but ykwim.#DAMN IT I'M OUT OF ROOM AND IT DELETED A WHOLE ASS PART 2 THAT I HAD TYPED OUT#fine. i'll make this its own post at some point because i yearn to yap on about it

There are some experiences worse than death, Renfield. [...] everyone you care about will suffer. Because you betrayed me.
#renfield#hannibal#im so sorry lmaoooo#comparatives#pls Renfield is no where near as good as Hannibal#they're not on the same level they're not even on the same planet#but this movie is... like it's alright. a light on fun time#this was for fun and i was kind of taking the piss ahhhhh#renfield x dracula is like#it's a solid yummo#but defs wasted imo#2023 and peeps still scared of gothic romance and toxic gays#Renfield 2023#renfield x dracula#hannigram#i'm crazy about the old tale of the monster that fell in love and then felt scorned#and so said monster can't bring themselves to kill the thing they love the most#but they can kill everything that person loves and bring the world crumbling#hence the monster giving in to its true nature#but then again#a monster is always a monster#just because you love it doesn't make it not a monster#i had to do so much to the colouring on Renfield so it didn't look insanely jarring next to Hannibal#it's not perfect but i tried#tehe#mine#photoset#Dracfield

Stuck on the first few eps of Farscape after finishing up Fantasy High s2 and maybe its the whole most recently consumed bias but I'm really struck by how much it feels like a dnd game??? Bunch of weird lil renegades slapped together and put in weird situations, honestly it would make a really interesting starting point for a game
Anyway John Crichton is a bard/wizard; he does a lot of persuasion as performance and that scene of him collapsing to the floor to write slingshot equations is THE most wizard shit- perhaps Artificer would be more accurate to him but it's not a class I'm familiar with.
#most of the others i feel are fairly obvious#i do feel like thats a fun lil idea to expand on tho; write a dnd game thats Just Farscape and see how long it takes the players to notice#maybe even set it up like ok theres a bunch if Archtypes you can pick tovplay as#but instead of Zhaan Aerun D'argo etc its The Preist The Commando The Child Soldier Barbarian adhfjsjsjd#and its the PCs characters#might let that cook a lil longer#anyway yeah i honestly might make Crichton as a character bc i always forget how endearing he is to me#fuckin love Farscape man it honestly explains so much about me that i watched it at like 10 years old#its like. imo its better star wars#its closer to space fantasy than to scifi and just goes balls to the wall with it#i know the production of it was kind of insane with alot of stuff being added by the cast just messing around in character#and it gives it so much charm!!#also ultimate bisexual/pansexual/alien fucker show please help everyone is hot#baby jason ABSOLUTELY imprinted on both Zhaan and Claudia Black#im also currently workshopping a char that got a lil of aerun and a lil of crichton injected in#to be a long term foil for Sunny#basically raised by their ex and groomed to be a fucked up honeypot for them to fuck them over later#except she develops feelings for them and its all this really complex REALLY toxic dance of masks#but we'll see how that one cooks#tldr i gotta make my Bardificer later lmao#potentially with some rogue or warlock levels later on

people conflate being nice with not being critical. Being nice to people doesnt mean never presenting them with any kind of negative information or feedback it means don't be a prick while doing it
#.txt#i think thats the thing i dont like so much about the current culture of art on the internet#like its good people want it to be welcoming for new artists#but its kinda turned into an endless positivity echo chamber without any real substance#you cant get real critique on anything cuz people want to be 'nice' so they only mention the good things#which I guess will never offend someone but imo its annoying asf that you cant get honest feedback on anything#its just platitudes and so you get a ton of people who want to have high quality art#but are told theyre snobs and dicks for even believing in a hierarchy of art quality#when youre a beginner you can tell people are tiptoeing around saying the obvious thing#which is that its obviously made by a beginner#and thats fucking humilating tbh#to have people treat you like a first grader who'll break down into tears if you dont tell them theyre doing perfect and amazing#maybe this has just been my personal experience but I gave up art cuz I felt stupid taking it seriously#like no matter how hard i pressed for feedback or critique or tips people would just kinda smile and nod#tell me my art is AMAZING and soooooooooo so good but like. no it wasnt and still isnt lol#theyre crude and sure maybe theyre not garbage but I know they're not good cuz i have eyes#instead of trying to convince me that my opinion is wrong how about you just give me some advice#like any

you and etoiles are such good friends ^^ 🤭
Wow. What keen observation skills you have.
I don’t know what the infatuation is with you people and me talking to my classmates. It’s not that big of a deal.
#in my mind scara is a very sentimental person but he would rather have no friends at all than admit that#so like that dumb little cat keychain is gonna be on his hat FOREVER but if someone asks him about it he’ll pretend to forget where its from#and like. he’ll go give little presents to lucien but ONLY if he has an excuse#and when he gets the little chocolates from people in his class he’s either eating them or giving them to nahida bc he does appreciate it#that being said idk if you guys are taking this as him having crushes on them 😭 imo he’s just learning how to be nice so he’s awkward#while I’m ranting I do have to say how much I love the Akademiya ocs. my god#they give me life. both as a college student and wanderer rp blog theyre just so interesting to play alongside#im soooo bad at making ocs myself so im sitting here in canon character jail but I love this lil group a lot :’)#but my bf is a big oc guy and I was telling him ab all of this and he was so into it. super cool you guys#okay rant over ily#wanderer speaks#genshin ask blog#ic blog#in character#genshin rp#ic ask#in character blog#etoiles astrology painter

everything else about the writing in skypiea aside (hint: its not so good) why is the anime of it like truly the most boring television i've ever watched theres like 20 episodes dedicated primarily to the fight between enel and luffy and there should have been like. 2. max. it's because theyre always teetering on catching up to the manga i know this but its why the movies and filler arcs like consistently have better more tightly written plots. film red was not a very good story but by god at least it was over and done with in 2 hours you know. and uta was there bringing out some of the best anime tunes of the decade.
#op lb#sorry. zoe's posting got to me. why is it so baddddddddddddddd.#and well water 7 > enies lobby > water 7 arc had good character writing imo but introducing a bunch of fucking guys and giving them#devil fruit powers JUST so they can fight with the whole crew. yawn. the giraffe is funny but like no one caresssssss#except the fujoshis. they care. too much kaku yaoi in this world#i thinkkkk some of the better writing is like impel down > marine ford arc but idr exactly bc i'm always in tears the whole time#but like thats largely because its just luffy? so its not weighed down by a series of 6-10fights#which is funny bc it objectively takes place over one of the largest stretches of time for an arc#ultimately. what im saying is everyone should watch one piece movie 6: baron omatsuri and the secret island#journal

Still makes me so mad that the hospital stole my teeth when I was too out of it from the anesthesia to fight them on it. I grew those! Just because they turned on me and I needed them out of my body, doesn't mean I didn't want to keep them.
#as opposed to the dentist who after fitting me for a new retainer was like 'so the 3d printed model of your teeth. you want that right'#that's a man that understands me#fuck yeah i do#even gave me a little bag to take it home in. that's how sure he was that I'd want it#offering to let you keep these things should be the bare minimum imo. of course I'm attached to them! they're mine. not yours#and i mean the bond between me and my teeth was much stronger than that of the 3d model#seeing as id personally grown them. carried them around for a good while. and! most importantly: they almost killed me#the bond between a girl and a thing that spent 2 years doing its damnist to make her die a timeless kind of death: irreplaceable#nothing makes you feel closer to your ancestors than regular systemic infections from a bad tooth#tho in the tooths defence. it personally was very healthy. i did a great job of growing it really. it just grew in at the wrong angle#leaving me with a gaping wound in my mouth for two years (no really. it should have been removed immediately but shit happened and it took a#ridiculously long time until eventuality mid pandemic they were like 'yeah let's do that surgery you've needed for 2 years')#by the end i was on antibiotics like once a month. and the really nasty ones too. the swelling was so bad ppl kept thinking i had mumps#no! just my tooth again#honestly we went through a lot together (even it was the tooths fault) i hate to think of the fact that it was incinerated along with#everyone else's set aside body parts. it deserved better.#i feel something that tries to kill you that many times is owed a certain amount of respect. they robbed me of the chance to give it that
