Free serotonin comes from imagining the Xing squad + Greed enjoying some lunar new year stuff in Xing ❤️❤️

Happy New Years to everyone this post happens across! Here’s to the next year being full of stupid bullshit (in a good way, shenanigans and shit) 🥂

A shoutout to the fma community for silently agreeing that if Ling is pictured anywhere, there must be a Greed somewhere. That doesn’t mean he’s a person, nono he could be a tiny little sticker. A little crumpled up piece of paper on the floor. Ling’s fucking shoes, idk.

The bounds of this homunculus’s form are not defined by reality. He is space and time itself.

#A where’s waldo hunt but for greed #just saw one where he’s a fruit gummy. yup thats greed #put him anywhere. it’s accepted and appreciated like the real bastard himself #the shoes part Ling could just be wearing those shitty addidas you get on a google search of fma greed #not my art #not even art #cotgar rambles #cotgar’s being random #fma greed #fma ling

Happy holidays!! Have a shitty karaoke session that isn’t holiday themed at all, but I’m still giving it as a gift to all of you anyways >:Dc✨

#should’ve just slapped santa hats on them #that’d make it festive #anyways nothing like a good old fashioned shitpost to pull you out of an art block! #my art #my animation #fanart #shitpost #fma #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma greed #greed the avaricious #greedling #fma ling #ling yao #the fact that I forgot it was do mi ti until I pulled up the lyrics #it’s been so long since I’ve listened to the real song that I solidly believed it was something like doomiti

[cotgar2]

came to ask about using your art as a discord icon and saw that someone else literally just asked about that, heheh... I love your work!!! your Ling is just phenomenal

Bro, double death by love wtf waghhfhhhhh 💗💗

Also ty !! He is such a fun lil guy to draw, he brings me much joy when I get a chance to doodle him,,,,

(Sorry that was drawn on my phone lmaoo)

#ling is such a friend #i draw greed too much I need to let ling have his time more often #although usually drawing greed results in really tiny lings next to him so you know what. valid #ling’s best form is tiny #ling has 2 best forms and its just as ling both times #my art #ask #ling yao #his smile is contagious and if you disagree then idk

[cotgar2]

hi!! just wanted to ask about your policy with like.. using your art for icons and stuff since i know not all artists are fine with that. just like discord pfps n stuff

BWA- OFC!!

I’m totally fine with it, though I do just ask for like.. credit somewhere. Like just literally in the bio or something, nothing special lol. But yeah, I’m totally cool with it! Tysm for asking! 💗💗

#pfps are much harder to steal so that’s more just for if someone likes it loll #muchh more leanient about pfps so if you forget to credit that’s ok ❤️ just if you can or if you rememebr then just a quick ‘pfp by @cotgar’ #not my art #ask #i get asking tho loll #i’m the kind of person that will strictly only use my own art or official art from media

As an apology for being late with halloween drawings, have 2! Happy (late) spooky day!! :D🎃🎃

#hey to be fair I did my part on halloween hence why I didn’t draw anything #i walked around campus as greed and gave candy to people dressed up as well #tried adding the shield this year and it looked badass until the claw rings fell off whenever I grabbed literally anything #shouted ‘aw shit my finger fell off’ too many times #my art #fanart #fma #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma ed #edward elric #fma al #alphonse elric #fma mei #mei chang #fma winry #winry rockbell #fma ling #ling yao #fma lan fan #lan fan #fma greed #greed the avaricious #greedling #halloween #tw smoking #tw blood #in love with the purge-style shield mask #and also lan fan sorry for making you look so awkward with your mask but oops

[cotgar2]

Guess what day it is 🎉🎉🎉 🎂

If he’s putting candles on a cake, does he just put one so it’s easier or does he try to fit 200… (we all know the answer but realistically lmao)

And as a little extra:

They then sat there for an hour as Ling tried to count to 200 before Greed couldn’t take it anymore

#im convinced that the process of remembering it’s his birthday is ‘oh shit. oh god.’ to ‘oh shit!!!! Hell yeah!!’ #mostly just cause of this interaction lol #I feel like Ling would be the one to remember it #mostly cause I feel like he probably analyzed literally everything around him the day of losing his body to both get a sense of how it works #and also get a sense of what day it is after being stuck in gluttony’s stomach for who knows how long lol #my art #fanart #fma #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma greed #greed the avaricious #fma ling #ling yao #greedling #shhh I never had to fix the fact that I drew his hand backwards shhh

[cotgar2]

The time of year where I listen to Burning Down the House for an hour straight

#im usually so bad at drawing fire or explosions but I wanted to try this style #and ooooo boy do I like it :0 #does it fit with my normal style? mmmeh… good enough #i just like it :) #my art #fanart #fma #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma ed #edward elric #october 3rd #happy arson day once again #it says dont forget but I forgot until I woke up to see my dash in flames (literally) #sorry ed…. I forgor….

[cotgar2]

Sorry for calling you by you full name, cotgar, I realised too late that it sounded like an upset parent and not a person trying to formal and funny😔😔 However, thank you for those beautiful smears/in betweens, the last one of OG Greed is gonna haunt me forever (affectionate) <3

Nah you’re good lmao it caught me off guard in a good way! I’ve been actively called to duty, full name is needed for such a task o7

Also yup he’s in my nightmares too dw 👍

#i just.. i don’t pause in that scene man. they’re all bad #not saying the animations bad at all either! it’s just that entire scene is in betweens lmao #ask #cotgar rambles #not my art #not even art

[cotgar2]

Hello Clean Out The Garage 2, would you share those cursed in-betweens with the world? I'm an enjoyer of that type of screenshot from animated shows

Oh, full name I see? Lmao forget that’s what cotgar is 99% of the time

Of course I can, but do note that there’s different genres of “in-betweens” so I’ll give a sampling of a good chunk of them lmao

Ofc this is gonna be long cause of the images so this is gonna be under a cut ^^

All these names are made up by me so have fun with them lmao. They’re gonna become progressively worse so brace yourself

Type 1: Hidden Greeds

Typically an actually well drawn frame that makes me overjoyed because it made my extra effort worthwhile loll. The drawing I did and the one on the left I consider a Hidden Greed because it’s very well drawn, it just lasts a single frame though. The right one’s just got a good enough expression that it goes here too

Type 2: Funnies

These ones are usually good reaction images cause while they ARE well drawn, they just have a completely different aura than the actual scene. Love these ones a lot. To the left is one I commonly caption “Greed shits his pants”. Amazing content. The middle one I dub as Roy Mustang Greed, and the right one is them about to start a diss track

Type 3: In-Betweens

Although this whole post is in-betweens, these ones (from an animator perspective) are literally just there as a transition from one frame or shot to the next. They usually look pretty weird out of context but flow totally fine when watching. Proportions usually get screwed up at this point as well, but again. It’s for the big picture

Type 4: Oh god I can’t unsee it Help, why did I pause here

These ones suck because they either last for just long enough or stand out enough that now the watching experience is never the same. If you rewatch the scenes that this kind is from, you will be able to pinpoint the frame(s). Please never pause during OG and Bradley’s final fight cause it’s… it’s all cursed lmao, spare your eyes and just let the animation ride out

#there aren’t any smears really where something looks insanely distorted #at least not any of note. there’s a few in the first greedling bradley fight but it’s nothing too special besides duplicated arms / swords #there’s a crap ton of shitty in between drawings though! and oh man have they ruined my viewing experience #in a good way though lmao I did this to myself after all #it’s super fascinating stuff as someone who (despite not animating in ages) has a strong interest in animation #not my art #not even art #ask #cotgar rambles #fma greed #greedling #yup this is going in the tag sorry not sorry #it’s him. you want more greed content and you know it. so here it is :)

[cotgar2]

Was insanely bored so tried to do a simple redraw of a frame I’m pretty sure the animators didn’t intend anyone to see, but too bad I have it and now it’s mine \/

#man it’s been a while since I’ve stared at a drawing so long I hate it :D #hnngggghh I’m dropping this and walking away before I notice more wrong with it #anyways drawing screenshots always always always means I’m bored out of my mind but wanna draw #this one i’ve been cautious cause I actually just like the screenshot itself and didn’t wanna attempt it #it’s from one of the million in-betweens I have saved but it actually was a really good in-between #some are terrifying let me tell you… #my art #fanart #fma #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma greed #greed the avaricious #greedling #pretty sure the anatomy’s all wonky but hey shhhhh look #i drew a good hand #I may like drawing hands but I’m not immune to feeling proud about when I do an extra good one

[cotgar2]

Hey!! So I loved your old greedling shimeji and was so hyped that you made a new one but the drive link in your post doesn't seem to be working for me? It brings me to the trash for my own personal drive for some reason. Is there an alternative link that I can use D: ?

That’s 100% my bad, I was tinkering with it yesterday and found the old files didn’t actually work… so I think I got a link that now gives you all the proper data for the shimeji to work! (If there’s still problems please please let me know, I wanna figure this out loll)

I had to update the original post with the new link, but ofc people already reblogged it with the old link after I fixed it and threw out the non-working folder. That’s probably why you got redirected to your trash

The only thing with this new link is that the first shimeji that drops is still the old one. To change it to the new one, you just right click the ouroboros icon at the bottom right, go to settings and select shimeji. I would’ve changed it but I don’t think the program liked me changing the names out of nowhere, so it’s just stuck in that order unfortunately :p

#the link is actually to the same folder as the old post! #that one worked so I just input the image files for the new guy and am now running it off of that #not my art #not even art #shimeji #ask #cotgar rambles #again lmk if this one doesn’t work either #I was fixing it at 1 am so I was a little more than tired while doing it lmao

[cotgar2]

So guess what I wasted my time on? Again?

Instructions on getting the little bastard are below, but this time I added a few more references and even added Ling animations! This definitely wasn't cause the art style of the old one bugged me too much

I forgot how long these guys take to make, holy crap, but it was worth it I think

NOTE THAT THOSE WHO ALREADY SAW THIS BEFORE 9/13/23 HAVE TO TRY IT AGAIN! Something was screwed with the link and didn't let me transfer important stuff into Drive >:p Unfortunately this means you also have to manually change the shimeji in order to get the new one.

The directions, luckily, are the same as the ones listed in the top right corner!

#Btw turn on window throwing cause he's such a bastard when he does it #You have to list the windows the shimeji can interact twith but once you do that #he can sit on it and throw it (if you allow it). Very much so encourage any users to mess around with it #my art #fanart #fma #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #greed the avaricious #fma greed #greedling #fma ling #ling yao #shimeji #custom shimeji #Putting that so if I lose the folder for some reason; I can just get it back easy #Actually yeah I'll need this link again when I put him on literally device I own so there we go lmao
