Slinky ❀ 20 ☻ fan artist and animator ❀ I post a lot of Invader Zim, Dexter's Laboratory, and Mario & Luigi! ☻ my blog is SFW only! ❀ commissions: CLOSED ☻ animation tag ❀ art tag
oh btw i got the second version of the mario and luigi keychain, i think it needs to be 4 inches wide tbh (it's 3.5 here) the new background art looks a lot better though! i think it turned out great. however, the REST of it was too saturated- luckily i only got this one for size comparison. hopefully wherever i order them from when preorders go up they'll look like it's supposed to, like the first one i had made (that one looked very accurate to the raw art). epoxy will still be added, but there wasnt an option for the listing i ordered from and it was also just cheaper to get it without it. overall im really happy with how it turned out and im excited to start selling them when i finally get to it!
DIB KEYCHAIN IS HERE!!!!!! 4 more to go.. i think to compensate for his vertical height i'm gonna make him 4 inches to make them look the same size (zim is 3.5 but his design has more horizontal width that dib's lacks)
when i was 8 years old they were playing music at my gymnastics practice, like always, and there was this one song i heard a part of that just got stuck in my head. the melody was absolutely hypnotizing to me. never figured out what it was until a week and a half ago while i was at work. it started playing over the store speakers and i just froze, realized how familiar it was, and ran to my phone to go find it. that song was "too shy" by kajagoogoo, and i have been listening to it on a loop for like the past week and a half
i got to watch the last solar eclipse in august 2017 but i dont get to watch it today unfortunately cuz i cant find my old glasses i used last time 😔given they're visible in the US so rarely, 3 of them happening in the span of 7 or so years is pretty neat
I've thought about this actually- fun fact! they share a japanese voice actor :) anyways though, this is kind of a tough question to answer because there's both things they strongly agree on and strongly disagree on. theyre both obviously skilled in math and science, but that isn't what dib is really into fully. he incorporates it into his paranormal studies but it's not his main thing like his father. he'd get bored of the conversation pretty fast. given his nature, he'd obviously bring up the fact that he's a self proclaimed paranormal investigator and that there's an alien in his class.
with that in mind, i think dexter would instantly take his word for it, as he's interacted with aliens before. but on the paranormal aspect, i think he'd be one of many to call him crazy, and given his tendency to be a bit of an Asshole, he'd probably tease him for it too. (despite the fact that there's an episode in which they literally cast spells and shit?? idk man i got this from the comics) he'd also probably nitpick his wording on lumping together the paranormal and aliens.
maybe dexter would get along better with dib's dad, professor membrane?
tldr, i think there's some things they could both get along about and also butt heads about. overall though i dont think pairing them up together would be a good idea as they'd probably start fighting each other over things lol
