#we need a stress relief

i think tim is high maintenance the way a boarder collie or austrialian shepherd is. like you have to make sure they're not only given space to expend energy but you have to specifically let them get the herding instinct out and challenge them intellectually or they start destroying ur home

mini redraw of the 3rd anni kanade card.. im obsessed

[moeblob]

As an attempt at a polite "going forward" comment...

I do not plan to draw for Three Houses or Hopes for a long while. I know a lot of my followers are from the past four years and I appreciate that you followed me at all! But if you are only interested in the art of those characters I wanted to be clear and say you can unfollow me at any point if what i draw no longer aligns with what you want to see.

I might draw for other FEs (like Heroes or 13/14/17) but I do not want to get involved with 3H any more. I do have other interests and across tumblr, twitter (now inactive), and sometimes on discord I've heard enough "I thought it was (FE3H character)".

This is not one person doing it and it is not simply one character being mistaken. I simply want to distance myself from 3H and have unfollowed a few people that reblog art of it because it just leaves a lingering bad taste in my mouth.

Thank you very much for your time and I hope you can find artists who can provide art for topics you like.

People who are chill like that>>>>>

(Idc if you wanna defend a character btw. Do that all you want- just don't personally attack in the process. And if you're really gonna do all that just because I made a joke about your "beloved favorite" you didn't like, then CONGRATULATIONS! For not only being FAR from getting my trust or being my close friend or even friend at all.. but I will NOT be open with you at all.)

(There's a difference between passionately defending your favorite and personally attacking someone in the process btw.)

He's an expert negotiator and will negotiate just about anything . . . except, where he gets to dump his load and what he expects you to do with it.

Yep, in my mouth and I'd have to swallow it, ALL of it. Those were his terms and they were non-negotiable.

(I could live with that)

silly comic of a conversation in-game i thought was too funny not to make something proper for instead of a doodle ww

(timelapse + wip images (thus silly process commentary in read more if you like artist commentary :3)

i think the sketch looks silly and goofy and funny so i find it important to share with you the mere presence of the faces i drew on it. i drew it on top of the boxes without staying inside its borders because i find my proportions can get wonky if i draw them cropped in a restricted space. and I feel trapped otherwise and i will draw BAD!!! give me spaceeeee to go wild!!!!

the head circles are there for emotional support

very low res speedpaint because truth is the canvas was much bigger than the space where my comic was placed. i didnt account when exporting my timelapse in 720px that that tiny space would look so pixelated ... but it's able to be percieved, so its okay.

(i will now comment on my process and it is not brief sorry)

usually i would try to clean up my sketches and figure out what goes on top before jumping into linework, but since there are multiple panels and drawings i chose to jump into inking right away for the sake of brevity. i just went in with a brush that uses pen pressure and drew what was needed. i added extra line thickness and contrast in areas around the face because it helps direct your eyes there more easily that way.

according to her equipment rei has a chain belt but i only remembered it existed once I was going to color, and i did not like that discovery... I chose to ignore it to maintain my peace. i already have the color palettes for these characters figured out, and i didnt really want to think about a new element at the moment www I tend to overthink those things a lot so i skipped it

the rest is rather straightforward! not that anything else wasn't, but in here i could turn my brain off and sing. linework and sketching require mumbling so i cannot turn my brain off. just block in the characters with a solid color so i can have a mask (something along those lines,) where the color can stay inside. then just color in !!!

Base colors just had slight cell shading on the skin, and for the hair i airbrush a bit of the skincolor in low opacity near the forehead... I'm not sure what it means, but i can look at the faces easier with it somehow. i like the gentle subtlety it adds even if you cant really tell. it makes things look nice.

background was just me blocking in the color of the wall and floor, shade the wall a bit, then slap a noise and free use wood texture on top. work smarter not harder ! yet it took a bit to make it look stylistically fitting with the characters, and even now i think bottom middle panel looks odd. whatever!!!

for the middle panel i thought itd be funny if the background was a solid silly and colorful one to contrast the next panel's sketchy black one. a contrast to how the word widow is seen. on that note my handwritting is not pointy. i gaslighted my hand into thinking that it was indeed pointy in that moment so i could write "not-yet dead person" in letters that didn't seem cute. my hand did not fall for it but it complied anyway

that's basically it! I'm not sure what else i could say that doesn't feel barebones because it really is that straightforward. if you're curious I used clip studio paint for this. only special brush used was for linework (a brush named Lemon Brush), the rest used were just the default. my computer gets the least credit. it was trying to convince me a 20mb file was going to nuke it all the time and hardly let me save multiple times so i do not appreciate it

Re-downloaded Mystic Messenger since I have a bunch of free time now (for better or worse) and I forgot how annoyed some of the choices made me. Like, what do you mean if I don't want to get Jumin's route I have to be a massive bitch about his awful dad???

only on tumblr do you get people so absorbed in their toxic online echo chambers that they think killing animals is no big deal and that posting about incest and pedophilia and shit is “fine” because it’s all “fictional” and “fiction has no bearing on reality” and “i’m a victim of these things so it’s cool for me to ‘cope’ by consuming this content and i’m totally not normalizing and excusing its existence”

"Don't compare yourself to others" but some of my classmates have settled on their overall theme for the end of term show. And are planning and creating each week's assignments with an eye to that overall theme. If I was smart, I'd be doing that especially since I can't access the studio on the weekend due to work due to gotta pay for car due to I have to drive an hour each day each way for this class.

But also there's so much to learn! And I want to play around!

I've already noticed that techniques we cover in say, week 7 would have made my week 3 project much easier to make (if only I had known then what I know now).

I have time still to sort it all out (affirmations). It's not the end of the world if it's unfinished/ not perfect/ gets a worse grade (AFFIRMATIONS). Things will seem better in the morning after I sleep (reminder to self). My creativity will start to flow again when I take care of myself.

I'm stressing about money and relationships and health issues and world events, and it's not that those things aren't important and deserving of time and attention. But if they continue to impact my learning then I'll have to ask for help (reminder to self).

I'm thinking about how to bring everything that I'm learning and everything that matters to me together. And now that we're in the second half of the term, also thinking about how to continue on after I leave the school.

there is such a HUGE sense of relief in being able to pay bills and set aside rent on time 😭😭😭

Now Marinette and Adrien can be akumatized without outing their secret identities as Ladybug and Chat Noir

It's going to be a long night.

damn this is just like orv oh hell 🥹 wait i am actually ugly crying rn EPILOGUE OLDEST DREAM IS LITERALLY JUST A BINARY STAR SYSTEM IM CRYING BLOOD NOOOOOOOOO

"But, I can still see them, right?"

Just like how it used to be, a really long time ago.

And so, this story would continue on in that manner.

"…That's enough for me right now."

I stared at the back of the subway disappearing into the darkness. Now, the figures of my companions couldn't be seen all that well.

oh i feel so sick. kim dokja who can't endure the loss of this universe that just barely survived and kimcom who can't endure the loss of that one person who made them survive oh...oh.

big fan of binary star systems and/or doomed relationships

It's like god or whatever higher power is torturing me slowly. I get one good thing and then two bad things happen. I get one good day and three bad days follow. I can't ever catch a fucking break. It's always fucking something and it doesn't ever end.
