i can't be bothered to edit this properly so here is a bad photo of my sketchbook <3 i didn't wanna draw a person today to give myself a 'break' so instead i spent an obscene amount of time drawing wels castle (ft hypno's fireworks hehe)
#hermitaday#i guess they're technically cub's fireworks just commissioned by hypno?#idk how i managed to spend like 4 hours on this... tbf a lot of that was not drawing it was staring off into the distance but#ngl i'm STRESSED about etho tomorrow because i know i will want it to be perfect but i am not a perfect man....#i'm getting frustrated at my own (lack of) skill for drawing people even tho i literally started learning this month lol#i need to focus on having fun w the process instead of putting pressure on myself to create something perfect#anyways...... why do i always chat so much shit in the tags#welsknight#welsknight fanart#traditional art#horsemeatluvr does hermitaday#horsemeat gallery#hermitcraft#i spent 8 hours in the library today i'm so. so eepy

The Holy Order uniform canonically has a longer cloak that attaches to the short little capelet thing and Order Sol has it too, but for some reason I've never actually drawn it. Daisuke makes really good use of it as a silhouette for wings in the Artworks 2004 cover
Yuki Kato (who later went on to do a lot of work for Blazblue) drew it for the GGXX Slash Beat Encyclopedia (left, w/text), and Daisuke again for the GGXX Midnight Carnival Burst Encyclopedia (right, no text):
There are a few other official illustrations with it too besides these. Ky's drawn with the cloak a lot more than HOS is though. I think he has it for a majority of the ML and GGX era artworks, but he stops being drawn with it by Vastedge, it seems
#textpost#I should work on digging up some art credits for wiki galleries today...#Sorry fellow wiki editors as I yet again focus on the Sol Badguy/HOS pages and no one else. My curse 😔

Fig's line "I don't think I'm an artist, I think I'm just a good friend" has not left my head at all. Just...
You're Fig Faeth and your horns came in over the summer and you pick up the bard class as a form of adolescent rock 'n' roll rebellion, and it works! It's exactly the outlet you need! You give a guy you just met drumsticks and you start a band and it's good enough that within a year and a half you're touring. You are, in every sense, good at being a bard.
And then, finally, your junior year, you start to take it seriously. Your art goes from an outlet and a form of rebellion to a practice. A discipline. (Can rebellion exist within a discipline?) Your classmates know what they want to do with their work. They all have a thesis statement. And yeah, there's cohesion in the music you make, but you've never had to think about why you make it. You've never sat down and dissected what it is about bass that speaks to you. You've never poured over your lyrics to pick at any deeper meaning. Why should you? You don't play music for a grand design, you do it to... huh, why do you do it?
(Your art is the one form of self-expression that feels as safe as Disguise Self does, because even if you're pouring your heart onto the page and then screaming it in front of thousands of people, it's not like you're really making yourself known. You can sing I'm lonely, I'm scared, I'm furious, and your fans will sing it right back, and there will still be the distance between performer and audience to keep your heart safe.)
Now you're being asked to look inward to explain the artistic choices you're making, and you can't help but recoil at that, because you'd rather do anything than look inward. Meanwhile, your classmates have no problem with it, so you start to wonder if you're a real artist at all. Can your art be authentic if it only exists to bolster a thesis statement? Has your art been unauthentic this whole time because you've never really thought about a thesis statement before? Is that what makes it art, and not just the next track on somebody's teen angst playlist?
You can't think about yourself— acknowledging your own existence makes you want to puke. So if your music is an extension of yourself, (and it is, even if it's just because the spotlight reveals only what you want it to,) you can't think about your music. You can't. You have to. Your grade depends on it.
You're Fig Faeth, and you keep multiclassing because you'd rather be a good friend than a great artist. If introspection is what great art demands, then fuck it. You must not be a bard at all.
#Dimension 20#fig faeth#fhjy#Idle Chatter#my last two years of college were when I started to get more and more nauseous about my own art#because I wasn't being taught how to make the art I wanted to make#the whole curriculum's focus was on gallery art#which infuriated me! I wanted to make art that didn't have to involve twelve layers of meaning and metaphor to be considered good!!#so I drove myself into the ground time and again trying to make (miserable) work that I thought would fit the criteria of a Real Artist#anyway it's been 4 years and I'm just now picking at why I don't enjoy creating anymore so Fig's whole arc has hit home in a major way#ALSO. AAAAALSO. THE ADHD STRUGGLE WE SEE WITH BOTH FIG AND KRISTEN. LOVING SOMETHING BUT STILL STRUGGLING WITH FOLLOW THROUGH#BEING TOLD YOU'RE NOT DOING ENOUGH WHEN IT'S SO FUCKING HARD JUST TO GET WHERE EVERYONE ELSE IS AND NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IT'S HARD FOR YOU#it was easy and now that the rubber's hit the road it's hard for you but not for others so it must be YOU that's the problem#you must be lazy or stupid or just not suited to this after all even though it's part of a pattern that has been happening all your life#if you were good enough or cared enough then surely the discipline would come easily to you! the way it comes easily to all your classmates#SCREAMS I gotta stop before I write a second essay in the tags. I'm so normal you can trust me to be normal about D&D characters

If you have a post relating to Sparrow being transfem that I haven’t reblogged, feel free to send it my way!
Tags:

i havent even read enough gl to justify the feelings and emotions i have about kyle i just have the lovers heart and also something wrong with me. and my projection. in my mind he's just like me. and he would have loved college vending machine frozen cheeseburger and heating it up in the microwave at 1 in the morning because he was bored and didn't want to work on a drawing assignment on 20" x 30" paper that was due tomorrow in his freshman year. he would have loved going to the club to push off finals work that's creating the worst stress known to man in his brain. and he would love to annoy the fuck out of his roommate when high and avoiding homework on a saturday.
#IN MY MIND HE'S JUST LIKE ME and i understand why he dropped out of art school also.#i need to get back to my readings but im too into thinking about the couple dozen issues i have read#and then going i wonder what he was like in college. and the answer is definitely fucking annoying.#if i knew him i know we would be not arguing in art history class. i would be saying his takes are stupid outside of class during break.#and he would go i dont know how somoene can defend british utilitarian furniture so vehemently and try to liken it to bauhaus design#our arguments would also stem from having very different art history and therefore philosophy education. his background would be from a pro#who would focus on european canon as per usual while my prof was coming from the perspective of someone with a phd in asian art history#and a curriculum based mostly around exploring and investigating non euro art work and how movements like modernism and#post modernism functioned in other continents.#this is such a main blog post but idont care. EVERYONE HAS TO KNOW HOW I PROJECT AND INTERACT WITH HIM IN MY MIND#he would also hate how i argue for art even i dont care about by approaching it at the philosophical angle.#'how do you like this it's barely even art. or it is art. but it's a boring cop out for suckers. honestly.'#'the thing is i dont like it. i just think you need to expand your world views and stop being close minded. youre limiting yourself.'#you might go eiffel what are you basing this on? the answer is vaguely remembered panels in my mind plus generally taste opinions of his i#can gleam from what art references they give him within issues.#it would also be funny bc like. he has a background in design... he's just stubborn and snobby i think when it then comes to the realm of#fine arts. i think his opinions and how they operate in regards to design + illustration + non gallery art are probably quite different#but i cant lie. from the singular 'i dont wanna be some loser who shows up with a blank canvas to a gallery' panel i remember someone talki#about in a post i have used it to create a variety of thoughts i think he could have had.#and the answer is the opinions of someone definitely a little annoying in art school. with a pretty standard traditional training#and background that stems from euo+american art history and sensibilities that inform how he interacts with art. which is very normal#but i think it's funny to view him as someone i would probably roll my eyes at for some comments he would be making.#and it gets funnier with how he acts generally as a person.#kyle you cant be this snobby when you are drawing pin ups of your work crush in your home studio...#good lord this got so long i have a problem. hi. sorry to my new follower your kyle posting made me go ha ha kyle. i like that guy.#static.soundz#back issues box#< it might as well go there bc i blabbed way too hard and too much. sorry. overtaken by an entity in my mind

wayne family adventures going "we're gonna make an entire season about the joker and center literally everyone EXCEPT barbara and jason beyond the bare minimum" is certainly a choice and lemme just say, it is Not a fucking good one
#personal#anti wfa#for one i find it odd that a webtoon whose entire attraction was 'lil slice of life fluff pieces' is trying to do some dramatic arc#around the most amoral psychopath in batman's rogues gallery#for two why am i seeing a whole thing about bruce worried about fucking dick???? fucking DICK??????#barbara was shot and sexually assaulted in her own home and paralyzed for life!!!! jason was tortured and MURDERED!!! at fifteen!!!!#any joker centric arc needs to center them (and duke but they put some marginal effort into duke at least in the beginning)#i could give a shit about tim or steph or damian or dick in a joker arc they're not thematically important!!!#if you're going to do an arc that focuses in part on how the joker affects members of this family#(which they clearly are with the way bruce's storylines are turning out this season)#then it needs to focus on the characters for which the joker is thematically relevant because of the effect he's had on them in his actions#which would be BARBARA GORDON and JASON TODD#(i know someone on the art team said that dick was their favorite so is that it?)#(is that why i sat through panel after panel of 'oh let's focus on dick let's make this about dick' for no reason?)#(when the only interesting dick&joker connection is that time dick straight up beat him to death in jason's memory?)#(not like they'll remember that since they seem determined to rinse out jason and barbara from this whole thing my god i'm annoyed)

𝐎𝐎𝐂; I apparently only posted this when it was a WIP couple of years ago but never posted the 'finished' greyscale piece so I am posting here now just to share... Vaedar and his winged baby, Azaes.
#i have such an intense need to draw but when i sit down to do that....#ofc i am interrupted and it breaks the moment and i get so stressed#and i can feel how am associating the drawing with stress which is not good at all just because i can't sit down to focus on drawing#it's a vicious cycle that i am constantly working through but lately all i can do is quick line arts and always using refs#cuz that's all the time i can make for with as less interruptions as possible... it why i'm gravitating to writing over drawing cuz#dont mind the interruptions as much while writing cuz it easier it doesn't require as much focus as drawing for me#i dont have trouble i think with line art cuz that's what i can do quick but i need a lot of practice for greyscale and color#which is what requires most focus and rhythm.. but i will not give up ok drawing is when i feel alive#but wow yes anyway i rambled am sorry xD just have vae and his big dragon bby#[ d r a g o n l o r d ] vaedar#[ f i r e made f l e s h ] dragons#gallery#mine

so i wrote a fic about garry and mary. what if they were friends. what if he sang her a little lullaby. what then
#🪦 — phantom’s scream.#🗝️ — phantom’s hollow.#🪞 — the twisted gallery.#<- technically art? i suppose? after all fanfiction is just another medium of creation#ib game#garry ib#mary ib#ib is here too but she isn't the main focus#smile ... i think it is fun. to explore their dynamics

Trying to find artwork for my newly painted office and I am SO!!! CLOSE!!!! but not quite and it is frustrating as hell and unfortunately it has consumed my entire soul and I will not be able to rest or think of anything else until I figure it out.
#emynn.op#personal#also note this is not fan art I pretty much have that covered#this is going to be the art that's on my Zoom background#office is dark teal so I wanted some bright pink fun florals as the focus#just pops of bright color I want it to be HAPPY#I thought of doing a gallery wall but I went 'lol you clown you will analyze that to death and never get it done'#'let's keep it simple and just do 3 large prints. that's SO much easier'#it is NOT!!!!!#the pink's not pink enough#or I have two pieces that go really well together and the third is meh#or maybe they're all too busy or maybe they're too plain#and why does my favorite one not seem to go with anything?#I think I'd be able to put it to rest if I was super off but I am SO!!! CLOSE!!!!#I keep going 'SURELY within 5 more pages on etsy I'll find The One'#NOPE#I did find a set of 3 I do think will look really nice w the colors BUT it's not really the style I was looking for an GAHHHH#I wish I could paint I'd be making some big ole flowers

I saw another artist do something like this recently. Thinking I might start doing these at year end too, a way to look back as I get ready to move forward.
(Yes, Calloway in the top corner is technically from this month but I love it so she’s staying up there)
#year end#new years#2023#olives and lilies#my art#gallery#I love seeing the variety#but i definitely need to work on changing my shot angles#maybe I’ll focus on worms eye and bird eye this year

and are there any great women artists in the room with us right now?
#m#my post#I just hate the tone around these conversations for the most#part bc it really feels like it pigeon holes artists who are women as just ‘women artists’#like the obsession w identity in art can take away from the artists work#their identity becomes the focus and not their work#makes you feel like a statistic for a gallery or university or w/e#same reason I don’t want to be labelled a ‘lesbian artist’#and I feel awkward when there’s grants and things for queer artists bc my work isn’t abt people or identity at all#it doesn’t feel queer enough and I don’t always want to talk about my work through a queer lense tbh#my work is about colour and form and material and I want to talk about that#there are great women artists they just are held to the same esteem as male artists or recognized or shown or paid as much
