this manatee looks like it’s in a skyrim loading screen

#lol good luck finding all of the photoshopped versions in the rb history. ‘manatee restored’ is still my favorite of all time #misc #I encourage anyone dyslexic to try rotating him in your mind. I can’t do that; which is why I’m asking you to.#also: a bunch of tags are surprised this isn’t ‘shopped #it’s the lighting. backlit by the sun (which is diffused through the water) but also forelit artificially #the artificial light - a flash pack or something - casts a hard shadow under the creatures arm #which normally wouldn’t be possible if backlit by the SUN; you’d see a less-hard/more-fragmented shadow above water #as light sources ‘compete’ in a sense - and since there aren’t any light sources which can outshine the literal sun #it looks a bit weird when the darkest shadow is being cast from any other origin point - which is what’s essentially happening here #I don’t know the mechanics of how light travels through water; but I know the effect is substantial even with relatively short distances #also: it’s been balanced and color corrected by the author of the photo - who made deliberate choices to bring out the full potential #so it’s not like it’s a fresh and untouched export #but the kind of ‘tacked on’ appearance of the creature is a result of the lighting conditions within the image

Genuinely, and I mean this kindly, but learning to recognize bait and not engaging with it will change your fandom experience.

#once you realize : oh theyre just trying to rile me up and i dont care to give them a response #everything is less stressful #i keep seeing the same arguments rehashed every six or so months #i know a lot of people are new and dont know but the trolls youre arguing with do #theyre trying to burn yall out and send you packing #also i do think there is something very funny about someone spending all that time color coding a bait post #and no one engages with it like wow you tried #i understand the passion people feel AND at some point you gotta let it go #anyway i do feel like the best way to sustain longevity is to just block the tags/people who enrage you

This was going to be just a quick warm up doodle before other work, but I liked it enough to finish it.

#it’s the twin injuries for me #nothing says soulmates like matching bloody noses #I wanted to try something real funky with the colors this time #hermann gottlieb #newton geiszler #newmann #pacific rim #gah-art #blood cw #bright colors

Click for better quality

Shotout to Leona and Cheka for singlehandedly getting me out of the worst artblock I've had in months, love these guys

Tbh I just wanted to draw Cheka doing that one thing kids do when they treat you like a climbing tree, I have other drawing about that but it's a work in progress, it was supposed to be animation practice but Ibis got some crunchy quality on the canvas if you don't pay so. Yeah. Also Grim is here bc why not

#twisted wonderland #twst #leona kingscholar #cheka kingscholar #twst cheka #twst leona #i love em they are so funny #also first time drawing cheka leona and grim i hope you don't mind one or two little design headcanons #i just think that he looks good with curly hair #anyways when I tell you I was struggling with Leona's arm #but ehhhh it worked out.#maybe. I hope so #if this flops I'll cry/j I spent too long on this shit #also god I fucking hate drawing details I hate em if the character has more than two colors in their fit I'm going to complain like a bitch #anyways I missed rambling on the tags can you tell #i drew something #spent too long on details that aren't even noticeable unless you zoom in ughhhh #twst fanart #alt text #i hope the alt text isn't confusing. I always try but i'm not good with words so i'm never sure if it's as clear as I think it is #twst grim #grim twst #ain't that the same tag #grim twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland fanart

I admired Disco Elysium fandom from afar for some time now, but I was too intimidated by its quality to post anything. But while doing random scribbles I've got carried away, ended up with this, and I think it's kinda ok???

#I'm stepping out of my comfort zone in at least four different ways with this one #last time I had colored pencils in my hand was like 12? years ago #so idk what I'm doing I just bought a cheap set to try something new #but i had fun drawing it and that's all that matters #disco elysium #harry du bois

Random hcs that have been on my mind for the past couple days: now in doodle format!

Text for each drawing written out under the cut in case it's not clear or anyone wants to translate it!

(1) <- Somehow soft?? <-Sometimes makes a comforting hum/rumble <-Holding for support

(2) <-Walks so quietly everywhere he goes <-Is about to meet god

(3) <-Can't see well in the dark (no eyelights) <-Can't help himself

(4) <-Thinks Color will turn Killer against him and convince him to run away

(5) <-Thinks Nightmare is using them all for the negativity and has brainwashed Killer into liking it

(6) <-Thinks if he runs and jumps at Cross as fast as he can Cross will lift him and it'll look so cool

#UTDR #UTMV #My Art #Horror Sans #Nightmare Sans #Color Sans #Killer Sans #These are all kinda random but at least I got something drawn today!!#I do really love the hc of Horror having that slasher movement about him #Because I have it too and I wanna share it with him #I can't stop scaring the people around me by entering rooms or walking up to them and I think he should have that too #It's almost always unintentional and scares him too when they suddenly yell #But sometimes... sometimes it's for funsies #Killer refuses to use a light of any kind even when he can't see so he's kind of asking for it #Also this is the short version of how I think Color and Nightmare are in a dadmare situation #They still have beef but it's like. they're both paranoid #They both think the other is gonna convince Killer to never see them again but it never happens #Maybe it gets resolved in some way but that's for another post #Also HorrorDust cuddles #Because that's the kind of nap I wanted to have earlier so I'm living vicariously through Dust #Also my first time trying to draw XChara! I hope I did okay!!#Trying to incorporate them into things slowly for Wick #Anyway I need to consider sleep goodnight gang!! :D

I met the me who made different choices

#idk what this means so dont ask #got the words stuck in my head and this is what I wanted to draw for it immediately #me at my desk. so.#I dont look exactly like this obviously. doesnt matter. anyways #hard time recently in a lot of different ways #lots of work to do!#given up on getting everything done I kind of failed at that. it was too much #so now I'm just trying to get anything done that will make the next 6 months not kill me again #ideally. 3 episodes. or the book #or like at least close enough to that that its basically that #I'm feeling really screwed LOL #I dont know how I've been working every day for so long and still havent done enough...#(its because the work load is way too much)#every time I take 1 hour for myself. to cook. or clean. or draw something else. or play a game. I feel so guilty auauau #I hate webtoon I hate this damn green app...#DOESNT MATTER!!!#what DOES matter is my art is good as hell... look at this shit...#the light. the colors. I love you red I love you green #I need to get more red pants I only have the one pair.#I saw this guy with red pants that had skeleton legs on them and I was like FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!! I need them!!!!#I need to start sewing again. I dont have a sewing machine cause my apartment is too small so I havent sewn in years but I really want to..#I want to make clothes again... I need some vests I need some dresses..#I will not make pants or sleeved shirts because I dont hate myself #sketch #art #vent art I guess LMFAO its not #its just this fun little thing we like to call self expression #also this isnt how my desk setup actually is I scooted things around cause I didnt wanna draw anything twice. fuck it we ball #ok back to work

I was going to wait and poke at this a bit more, but the excitement of Upcoming Episode 7 took over. :') so here's one of my alt ideas for Silver's UM poster! this time with more Diasomnia-appropriate colors (that said, you can tear the pink fluffy clouds away from my cold dead hands)

I also recorded this one, for anyone who's interested in that kind of thing! it includes all my fuckups and changing my mind and spending forever adding details before deciding it looks better without, so, uhhh, enjoy my failures! (I kept trying to draw in his jacket details...it never worked...) also featuring lots of drawing on the wrong layer, forgetting how jackets work, and the black censor boxes of continually forgetting to turn off pop-up notifications. hope you like watching me draw birds!

here it is, combined and compressed down to about 10 minutes long (with a warning for flickering and flashing colors from sped-up zooming/layer changes): [ link ]

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #eyestrain #not pictured: every time i had to stop working on it for the day because i was getting so mad at it #and honestly if i don't post this now i'm going to hate it too much to ever post it so HEY here we are #we're not going to talk about the ring. we just aren't.#genuinely the hardest part of this style is trying not to overdo it #something i struggle with a lot...as you can see 🫠#i actually don't normally do color thumbs (or at least not to that level)#but the bird overlay and the dark jacket against a dark background made me so nervous #and then i ended up changing basically every color anyway #whoops
