"i've just been working on a... celebrity impression. it's for a sting operation of sorts i've been putting together. yes as a matter of fact it WILL keep me busy tonight—"
[images ID: three images of a comic titled "one must imagine sisyphus happy" by druid-for-hire. it is a visual narrative beginning with someone with wrist pain (depicted by bright orange nerves) working at a drafting table. the reader is shown the same wrist as the person uses it for many everyday tasks such as carrying a grocery basket, pushing elevator buttons, typing, and doing dishes, until the pain dissolves all the panels into chaos. the person then performs several physical therapy exercises until the pain subsides. they sit back down at a desk with their laptop, sigh, and begin typing. a small spark of pain reappears. end id]
a fun little piece i made during the semester and submitted into our school comic anthology! (which you can buy at the Static Fish table at MoCCAFest in NYC ;] ). it's about artists and injury
Shen Qingqiu manages to bullshit his way through a lot of xianxia skills through muscle memory, and i bet that includes painting since Qing Jing is a peak for artists, so when he zones out and lets his hands do their thing, he can produce art that fits the ancient Chinese art style. When he tries, however, and actually thinks about his art, it becomes very clear to any modern observer that he likely had several "how to draw manga" books as a young teen. His students are captivated by this new art style and everyone starts attempting to mimic it and before he's realized it, there's a new art style coming out of Qing Jing Peak. Word that the Qing Jing Peak Lord has pioneered a new painting style reaches Shang Qinghua's ears and as soon as he looks into it, he loses his fucking mind
Bug Fact: Colombian Lesserblack Tarantulas have pet frogs! The frog protects the spider's eggs from ants and in return, the frog is kept safe by the spider.
So erm, Danny might’ve fallen through a portal. And might have no clue where he is right now.
He fell into an alleyway! Right into a dumpster! Which isn’t the worst thing he’s fallen into but still. Ew. Well, Dad should be able to find him and bring him back home! …Right?
He shakes out his itchy fur and scales, already impatient and bored in the single alley despite it only being a few minutes. What’s a realms hatchling to do but explore? Well, besides taking care of his shed, but it’s too dry where he is anyway. Maybe he’ll find a lake!
Hm. He can’t understand what anyone is shouting or freaking out about. It’s like they’ve never seen a dragon or something, geeze! Oh well, he’s on his way to find water, he’s not built for the desert…
