Tumblr please stop glitching and let me upload images.
As promised, Jim's Akirdion armour from Rise of the Titans! These were created by Sam Drummond who at some unknown point in time removed all his RotT artwork from his artstation account along with other works. Because that is a situation that has never happened even with the website choosing AI over artists (Artists simply replaced thumbnails and left their work for the most part) these were presumed "safe" which turned out not to be the case.
While much was lost, Fisorion of reddit happened to reupload these there 2 years ago meaning they have been preserved. They've been saved off as well with the hopes that maybe they'll be reuploaded some day.
Starting off some concepts for the design:
Then refinement work including a progressing from the concept, to 2 to 3 which would be stuck to:
And finally some funky callouts with texture reference!
The concepts for the new Amulet were also saved!
And for your reference needs, callouts and from different angles too.
Nobody else mass nuke their art for a while stressed enough as it is with websites collapsing and taking things with it.

I just want to know how much these audiences overlap
Please consider reblogging for a larger sample size.
*If you don't know what qualifies as "watching" (ie you're not done or have given up on the show), if you've watched season 1 to completion, then consider it as you’ve watched it.
Edit/clarification: If your definition of "watching" doesn't align with mine, that's fine. Use your own definition if you want, the definition I added was just for the people who I knew were going to comment under this with "OP, define 'watch'"

Do you ever watch a show or a movie or any piece of media meant for kids and just think about how the story or character or that one scene or whatever just spoke to your heart and soul, or just how profound it made you happy or break your heart. And just sit their thinking that this is for literal children, who probably still couldn't 100% understand the gravity of what they are consuming or probably couldn't articulate how they felt about it other than say they liked it or they dont, or it made them happy or sad, and you, a grown ass person is just thinking about how this thing meant for kids is just so simple yet complex with so many layers of emotions and plot and etc. That explores themes and subject better than media meant for your age, in a way that is simple yet incredible done.

If I got a nickel every time a cartoon I love
based on a book
based on mythology
about a teenage boy
who stumbles upon an ancient artifact that gives him powers
that's being sought by this cocky guy with daddy issues
who's right arm is mechanical some of the time
and his Dad is this massive guy with big horns (and sometimes glowy blue eye(s))
who's being manipulated by a powerful woman
that he freed from her centuries old prison
who may have had noble ambitions in the past, but now has been consumed by power
and the woman possesses a young girl in order to get what she wants
and sacrifices the lives of her minions in order to unleash her ultimate weapon ->
(Dozens of Gum Gums) (Spider Queen, Huntsman, Syntax, Goliath, Not- Mayor) You know what I'm talking about :(
and she's got this indentured servant *cough Slave cough* (with pretty gold eyes 😘)
who she refers to as "Her Champion"
who travels using shadows (I could not find a single picture of Angor Rot using his shadow staff)
who was really sweet and kind in his past but then... well... stuff happened
and has lost his right eye
and he's been killed before
but the big bad restores him back to life so she can use him
and he gets a redemption arc at the end of season three
and the main character doesn't have a bio Dad, but he attracts plenty of father figures throughout the course of the show
and he gains a non-human form that makes him even more powerful
and him and the others gain an armor upgrade at the same time
and the girl of the team has short black hair with dyed stripes
and you know the guy with daddy issues who wanted to steal his artifact in the beginning? He becomes one of the protagonist's closest friends
and there's this gentle giant character
who becomes one of my most beloved characters of all time 💕💕💕
and he has a history of violence and trauma
and has now vowed to be a devote pacifist
but breaks his vow in order to protect the people he loves (with angry glowy eyes to boot)
and has a deep love for cats (yes, I did just do that)
...then I would have two nickels.
Which isn't very much, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?
(That last drawing was made by @jezfez81. Thank you for letting me use it!)
What the heck happened?!?! This was just supposed to be a comparison between Sandy and AAARRRGGHH!!! Where did all these comparisons come from?!?!?!?!?! WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED?!?!?!?!?!?
(this took way too long to make, please give it some love :3 )

@bluheaven-adw your post reminded me of an idea I had of one of the ways Jim could be revealed to Toby in the new timeline.
Blinky and Vendel get to Toby and manage to sway his opinion on changelings despite Jim's best efforts to get his friend to keep an open mind about them. Toby leans more towards the idea of extinguishing Morgana's creatures from this world while Jim defends the beings, reminding himself that Toby doesn't know that they have friends/allies that are changelings.
Eventually the dispute grows until Toby is accusing Jim of being one of the evil beings, a spy, his enemy, because why else would his best friend be so adamant about sparing something that Blinky and Vendel insist are irredeemable creatures?
In his anger and frustration, Toby takes a swing at Jim.
Rather than dodge or block, Jim surprises everyone by summoning Daylight to his own hands and throwing Toby to the ground, sword held out in warning.
Jim knows he can't hide any longer, not without risking the timeline.
