Something I haven’t seen people talking about is just how different Alastor’s radio tower is on the new hotel. Like the original one looks like a point of pride. He put the neon “on air” sign, all the arrows pointing towards it… it looks strong and sturdy, despite being haphazardly attached to the hotel. The new radio tower looks significantly more sinister. It’s attached to the hotel, sure, but in the process it’s ripped out the railings and seems like it’s trying to rip itself out of the hotel just as much as it’s grafted on to it. The antennas or whatever sticking out the top look more like barbed wire or a warning to stay away.
Idk just thought the difference was interesting. I imagine it has something to do with alastor being all put together and seemingly on top of his game in Season 1. I assume this new unhinged tower is a reflection of the alastor we’ll meet next.
#hazbin hotel spoilers#I have just been obsessed with this little change since I saw the new hotel design#it also just. sticks out like a sore thumb amongst the rest of the hotel#it just does not look like it belongs at ALL#and I wonder if that was the point?#is this alastors attempt to remind himself not to get attached?#or is it just one more thing that he’s losing control of#hazbin hotel#alastor

Jack Fenton was a round kid. Jack Fenton was a round kid with big blue eyes and a pudgy face and a brilliant smile, with a big laugh loud enough to rattle your bones. He was a stocky kid, big and tough and strong as an ox. He was the champion wrestler at his high school. Then he grew up, and he's still big, and broad, with a square jaw and straight black hair. He can lift both of his kids with one arm and lift his wife with the other. His smile remains brilliant, he has eyes like the open ocean.
Maddie Fenton was a willowy kid. Maddie Fenton was a willowy kid with bright eyes and a round face and a mind sharp like a scalpel, with a smile that could convince anyone to do anything. She was a tough kid, thin and lanky and strong like bamboo. She was top of her martial arts class by the time she was twelve. Then she grew up, and she's still brilliant, and she's no longer willowy, with a pointed chin and eyes that look purple in the dim light.
Jazz Fenton was a thin kid. Jazz Fenton was a thin kid with bright teal eyes and a soft face and a mind like a rabbit's, with a silk-hiding-steel voice that could sink into your bones. She was a bright kid, social and bookish and brilliant. She jumps from interest to interest like they're lilypads, soaking in everything that catches her eyes. She wants to be a doctor, then a therapist, then a teacher. She's growing up.
Danny is.
Danny is...
Danny is a small kid. Danny is a small kid with pale skin and a chubby face and eyes that are neither round nor blue like the open ocean, with a quiet voice that sounds like the wind whistling through the trees. He is a quiet kid, shy and skittish and hiding. He has eyes like a lamb; big and sweet, and they will swallow you whole. His eyes are blue like a glacier, and they see right through you, curtained with dark, wet lashes. His hair is black like an oil spill, black like raven feathers.
Danny is a watchful kid. Staring and watching, silent. Observing. He stares at the stars, as his parents work, at the neighbor across the street as he tinkers with his motorcycle in his driveway. In a house full of suns, there must be a shadow. In a city covered in sunlight, the dark always goes somewhere.
Danny is an outcast kid. He is an ink blot on a white page. He is a dark storm cloud over an open field. The looming shadow behind the trees. He is young and sweet and scary, with gentle fingers that are slender and long. His laugh is neither big nor does it rattle your bones, and his mind is not quick like a rabbit's nor is it sharp like a scalpel. His mind is radiant, the nail catching on the loose thread and unraveling it all in meticulous precision, and his laugh is soft and warm and it seeps into the soil like rainwater, soothing the ground.
Danny is a kid with a face like a stone statue; sharp and cold and pale, smooth and tall and cutting. With hair black like the night, that wisps and curls behind his ears and at his neck, swooping in his swallow eyes. He squints in the light as if his eyes will never get used to it, if you listen to his heart you can hear it bleeding.
Amity Park is a city with a blue sky and white clouds and a bright sun, a postcard come to life. Pretty and safe, full of normal people and normal jobs and normal parks and normal schools and normal children. In a world of heroes and powers and magic and aliens, Amity Park is a place that your eyes slide right over.
Amity Park is not made for a child like Danny Fenton, and Danny Fenton is not made for a place like Amity Park.

You know, you’ve been a good…friend to me.
Friend! I like the sound of that.
Ever since @endomentendo finalized Ragatha’s role in their Digital Wonderland AU I’ve been dying to do a redraw of one of my favorite pages from the graphic novel Wonderland by Tommy Kovac using these characters!
I love love LOVE Ragatha as Mary Ann!
#Kaufmo was a lot of more fun to draw than I thought!#I never really considered their friendship in a serious sense but after drawing this I honestly really dig the idea of them being close#I love this book’s characterization of Mary Ann so much#Just the idea of someone being seemingly so ordinary to the point where she sticks out like a sore thumb#yet genuinely calls Wonderland her home#is so interesting to me#A person who’s just so darn comfortable among all the nonsense#digital wonderland#wonderland#Kaufmo the White Clown#Ragathy Ann#ragatha#kaufmo#tadc fanart#my art

My Interpretation of The Last Agni Kai
(Disclaimer: This isn't critisism of Zuko as much as it a small breakdown of the tragedy of the royal family. This post was also editted and it may not appear in reblogs).


Do you hear this language? "The showdown that was always meant to be". It's somewhat true, but I'd argue that it's not because of who they are as people. It's because of Ozai.
It's because they're the golden child and the scapegoat. It's because they've been put against each other by their abuser.


I would argue that she is sorry. She does love her brother, and she didn't want it to end this way. Zuko cannot see that, and he isn't sorry.
In The Beach, Zuko burns a picture of them, as a family.
To him, the picture resresents the perfect past. Before everything went to shit. But he no longer fits there. Even though he's back. He's frustrated, he hates the world, and wants to burn it all.
Especially after he has redeemed himself, he is sure there is nothing for him. His mother is gone, his father is abusive, and Azula: the prodigy, the favored one, who belittled him from the day Ozai began to favor her. She left him in the dust while making it extra dirty. She's barely his sister anymore, she's the untouchable force making his life worse.
In Zuko Alone, Azula practically taunts him over his planned murder.

This is what Zuko sees. Not a human, not a sister, but a boogeyman. After all, Azula always lies. What he doesn't see is Azula's reaction when she realizes the situation is serious. She'll never let him see that.

Azula could have burned the bridge all those years ago, when he was banished. But she didn't. She is the reason he's back home, on that beach. Ozai was her God, she was disciplined to him and only him, even more than herself. And she lied to his face so Zuko could come back home. She's cunning, manipulative and dangerous, but she loved her brother.
Zuko can't see that. Even when "she's slipping", he can't see that. Of course he wouldn't, her love for him is overshadowed by the damage she caused him, and his envy of her. She's above him, the demon haunting him. As Ozai and their history led him to believe. And he sticks to this belief, until it's disproven.


(Author's note: Azula's face here makes me want to cry, props to the animator)
She's human, his sister. And she's trurly sorry it had to come to this.
The Last Agni Kai is a tragedy. It's the story of two siblings who grew up in an abusive household, with a dad who played favorites. One made all the wrong choices, while the other could not fathom the other's humanity. They don't reconcile, they put themselves against each other. Because it's the showdown that was always meant to be. And he only recognizes it wasn't, after it's over. Now, he too, is sorry.

I find it gutbustingly funny that, on top of giving cal Super Empathy psychometry as a trait he was born with, they also made him the reddest redhead to ever redhead
Only things missing were for him to be left-handed and O negative
#how this motherfucker survived as long as he did sticking out like a sore thumb is truly astounding#or maybe redheads are more common in the sw universe idk#star wars jedi survivor#star wars jedi fallen order#cal kestis#kwii plays star wars jedi#calposting

Concept art wip part 1
Body types ~

All of the types are elven size no human!
From left to right:
Normal slim-normal buff-young celebrimbor-tall slim-tall buff-maedhros
Listen I'm having a blast with this project!!!
I make for @dfwbwfbbwfbwf very detailed-over-multiple-week-made Armor and Weapon post here !
Since I really like those game concepts arts I make my own but with feanor and his sons
But to make the whole thing easier and fun looking I make on big template I can reuse and then show off the different characters !
Something like this :

Yeah can you even see something here??
So that I can put enough details in I need to "just" tape 4 Din A 4 pages (average paper size) together or two of my din A 3. So it is going to be huge xD
I never made such a big piece of art before but I have a good plan and I will draw the different part separately and then put them on the final papers.
I can't stress enough how much joy this brings me.
Sadly it's winter season so I have alot of work to do.
The good part is with that template I can draw many different characters rather faster and all would have a similar style!
#silmarillion#traditional art#art wip#this is probably just interesting for a few very obsessed people in the silm fandom#i love this project but im worried people will lose interest because it will take a while#and the finished pic definitely will look on the pc the best because of size issues#if you want write in the comments who would have wich body type#exept for celebrimbor and maedhros#the body types can be reused#also please tell me that those poses look good like can you belive i never drew a male body 2 months ago??!#i could use the extra cheering after my double soup accident and a bad work week!#btw i love how maedhros sticks out like a sore thumb
