litany of the martyrs (click for better resolution!)

#at some point i wanted to make an illustration for each character but in retrospect maybe each is multiple song-coded.. #drew the sketch for a quincy thing after a chat with a mutual reminded me this song existed dfsghjkl and then spent weeks rendering this #quincy cynthius martin #adamandi #i'm finally done with this! the saints especially were joys to paint and the halo a menace.... this has been the most ambitious one so far. #but it also took quite long because i only worked on it <engages with quincy> when mentally okay to deal with the themes. i'm not religious #but i do identify with the irrational(?ish) guilt + family legacy + academic achievement + disregard for self. also more complex thoughts #about love [but depsite quincent being a large part of quincy's character this piece deals with mostly the Rest of it. so another time..] #anyways! in the original sketch- the saints had heads bent towards quincy so the halo spikes pointed at him. but this worked better! halos #of the saints implying/creating one for quincy was a concept from the start though. in the show they don't touch him directly here but #differences in mediums i think- i don't have time in an image to craft a narrative so everything has to be happening. also artistic liberty #misc inspiration for this includes stained glass windows. i might have maybe misinterpreted the saint costume but i think i logic-ed it out #as the cloth part following a nun's habit w the hood. and then halo above. the material is also more transparent originally but i had. um. #too much fun painting fabric folds.. if you look closely you can see the basis of faces though behind the cloth; but only the vague shapes #because smth obscurity + inhumanness// cassian is the only one i gave a mouth though. that stems from melliot's post about the saints and #st cassian as spokesperson (<- did research teehee!) that's also how i found out which costume = which saint. speaking of which. #left to right: 'st lucy take my hand' // 'st lawrence give me strength' (presses quincy forward; but hand on shoulder connotates guidance) #/'st cassian help me smile' (quincy's mouth is btwn a grimace and a smile; tilts up at side. also no direct touch bc added insidiousness.) #//'st jude [...] i hope your causes burn' (jude's hand is in two places to show movement- nearing the flame and then snatching back; burnt) #other notes: at the midst of the flame the core is shaped like a human heart /the saints and their wax are all melting like the candle for #fun visual effect and also this way they are even less tangible <real>. perks of painting as a medium i guess. // also insp from icarus? #wax and burning imagery; looking at the halo and rays as parallel to sun that burns. too close to the sun; melting; hurting; hurtling // #candles at bottom are a nod to the frankly gorgeous set// also the entire composition kind of stems from the lyric <what use is a candle if #both ends aren't burning>; the two sides between the concepts of catholic guilt and academic perfection that spur quincy #the halo above (saints and guilt; litanyofthemartyrs) and the 'halo' below (academic papers; insp from choreo for perfect at school) #the papers were originally supposed to be more glowy. but i like the idea of it now being a reflection of how quincy's priorities shift #also of note is that <candle> in centre = quincy; w burning candle + aforementioned heart in flame -> most human; idea of love + passion #last thoughts: kneeling + hands close tgt = prayer //wax dripping onto the red As make an effect that looks like blood. because i like #hiding that within the adamandi pieces :OO continuity!! // i've run out of tags but yeah! had fun with this one! every so often i go a #little insane in making art and the final result astounds even me. ngl i'm quite proud of this one. pretty colours <3333

Monster High March Day 3: Toralei Dancing

Idk why, but as I drew this I imagined her dancing to I Am A Poseur by X-Ray Spex.  Has that kind of aggressive “I dont give a fuck” and abrasive-on-purpose energy that I think Toralei revels in.

#monster high march #monster high #monster high toralei #toralei stripe #mh toralei #solilakoi draws #kinda tried balancing her g1 and g3 designs but i think g3 ended up coming across more #debated on giving her the skirt or just having her in pants #but for a piece like this i think the skirt adds some nice movement #makes it more fun #also i think toralei should get stompy combat boots. you cant tell me she wouldnt love them #i honestly had so much fun drawing this tho and i really hope it comes across #oh also one last controversial opinion right at the bottom here #I really don't mind g3 toralei's british accent #I think it suits her! she's got punk-ish influences and that scene was arguably born in britain #along WITH giving her a snobbish 'im better than you' vibe #like i think it's a solid choice that makes both those sides of her character more cohesive

Incident 2

At around 22:51, the sound of something coming down the steps to the second floor were noticed by two Housemaidens heading back to their rooms. The two upon seeing the ghost fled to find Euphrasie. Despite their screams and the screams of those that stumbled across the bloodstain in the Death Corridor, the entity continued on their path unbothered. Whether this is because it didn't notice the sound or they were ignoring it we're unsure of as they haven't answered any questions. They eventually arrived to the Infirmary alongside their 'buddy.' They are completely focused on the health of this buddy, who's closed fractures, while almost the same in terms of body area, are luckily not on the same scale of the entity's many compound and comminuted fracture which are... concerning. I am unsure how they're moving frankly. They're currently refusing to listen to anyone who tries to move them. We're waiting for the other to wake up, as they might be able to answer our questions.

Everyone say welcome to The Stoned! Bc of their nature their 1st art piece is below the read more so it doesn't catch someone by surprise. I hope u enjoy!

wip of the thing im working on for something. Sped up to 10 fps because theres a lot of extra frames. it will be 8 fps later so it might look a little weird and fast in the gif rn.

this is going to kill me actually i have so much left to do and ive only got the hand movement/computer jostle mostly done. A lot of it will be him just typing with a graphic but damn. i gotta do him blinking and shit which is somehow harder than the body movements because its so small and an accidental thick line makes it look stupid.

the things i commit myself to because of the tism

#i dont know how to feel ab the movement for the hand its missing something. or im just tired. bitch go to bed!!!!!!! #ill sleep on it but if you figure it out lmk #no tags because its not finished #just for you guys #you know who you are #also :airhorn sfx: one of my favorite spamton pieces reached 300 notes lets gooooo #i love that one and would rather it be that than the uncolored neo post #thanks guys

for like 3 weeks i was wondering why i was sleeping so much and felt listless. and just now I managed to email 3 people and responded to a month old message in the span of an hour because I got back to TAKING MY FUCKIN MEDS..........

#MOTHER FFFFUCKER #to be fair. my doc said I could stop taking them while im on break since i wouldnt need to be constantly pumped on stimulants #im not sure if it was a side effect but i managed to take like 3 different naps in one day and STILL managed to sleep thru the whole night #at least 2 days into my break. the weird thing is i didnt feel more or less rested afterwards. but mentally i think im in a good place rn #to really put the level of awakeness im at rn i feel weirdly confident i could start one piece. also bc of that sick new opening it BANGS #the song is really good and im in love with the animation style. did some digging and it seems one of the lead animators is masato mori #but i could be wrong. it seems he also did some work on mp100 which could explain a lot lol.. he uses smear frames really well to convey #consistent movement and fluidity!!! someone else might have done color design but it works really really well esp with odas style!! #just love the overall vibe and aesthetic and id really love to study it and incorporate a bit of it into my art.. especially the thick #outlines which i think helps to separate characters and objects on screen. though i have to say the style is definitely more suited to #animation bc of the simpleness and smears. maybe that will help me explore shapes and perspective when i draw... i wanna get better #at drawing poses and angles but i have a hard time wrapping my head around space and using perspective guide lines NGHHHH #i wonder if it has to do with my dogshit ability to judge distance. not depth perception but like. judge how far smth is in metres etc #im also wearing an N95 for the first couple weeks back bc of the wave. absolutely NO BODY is wearing a mask its so fucking over #where im sitting ive heard 5 different people coughing probably not into their elbows!!! and im just. head in my fucking hands #there was a kid sitting a couple seats away in class coughing as he pleases and i wanted to grab him in a chokehold so badly. PLEASEE #ive been annoying my family by asking them to mask up and reminding them to bring masks when they go out and showing them news articles #but at least its working bc we ordered some KN95s and my mom is at least taking me seriously so. please dont be afraid to speak up abt your #health. take care of yourself and others however u can!! wear that mask indoors at your maskless friends house!!! stay home when u can!! #im wearing a surgical mask at home too bc my parents have '''a dry throat cough''' and they are so bad at coughing into their sleeves #also im pretty sure dry throat isnt transmissible bc my brother started coughing too so.. i also tested negative but they havent tested yet #im also not a doctor but i have to keep reminding ppl whenever i can that covid and flu work differently. covid is new and too recent to #have nearly as much research done on it. it seems its also compounding so instead of building immunity it weakens the body and spreads to #to other systems which might explain brain fog and muscle weakness. i remember someone early in the pandemic got infected and it messed up #their smell/taste receptors so bad that they cant eat most foods and that stays in the front of my mind when i think abt covid. christ #yapping

i have to be honest blue beetle could've been the worst movie in the world--it wasn't--and i would've still given it points for having a physical costume and shooting in real locations. because on the one hand it's like is that really so much to ask these days and on the other hand nobody wants to do that anymore and it's truly exhausting to sit through cgi mess after cgi mess.

#you can't fake the movement of a real costume. you just. can't. you can try! but you can't. #when jaime gets hugged and the back piece moves because there's really something there to jostle... #i said this to a few people but it feels like a mid 2000s superhero movie with regard to... a lot of things actually but particularly that #and sure your mileage may vary on that front but i love that shit

[aceatoerbny]

i started drawing to pass the time on the train and i blacked out and when i came to days later there was some kind of dorky klapollo nonsenseon my screen??

is he, you know,

#ace attorney #klapollo #klavier gavin #apollo justice #aa4 #sorry about quality btw you know tumblr #my art #this is by far my favorite klapollo piece i’ve done :) it’s crazy how once you draw the same thing many times you get better at it #amazing #this started as posing/figure practice with dancing poses and i decided to klapolloize it but now i’m thinking about an au…. #like what if they’re super competitive rival dancers who are just a little bit obsessed with each other #and they lose their original partners for some reason and are forced to team up but they’ve spent so long watching each other #they actually really understand and flow with the others movements and soon they’re perfect partners #and of course they’re better off working together than as opponents #and. you know. they fall in love. ofc. #brb gonna think about this for a million years #also these are not ballroom poses 😭😭 just a disclaimer #these poses are silly losers dancing like idiots (which is what i was thinking when i was drawing tbf) #maybe i’ll come back and do some real ballroom art another time #also do you like their outfits 🥺 i love the outfits

[snakeguy999]

i gotta tell you more abt my ocs sometime. smiles widely

Ooo la la...what did i do to deserve such an honour?

#i cant help but admire how much passion and joy and love and devotion each one of your pieces encapsulates #hard to express but you can really feel the movement the joy of each line each colour #how each piece has a rich attention to aesthetics and details and aaaaarghhhh im repeating myself #you never cease to inspire me boss o7 #its so intimidating to see a person with all their characters so defined and even organised in a toyhouse for me personally..... #like this great monolith which you can never see the entirety of #so id be greatly honoured to hear about your ocs over a whiteboard if you delight me #tucks hair behind ear #teheee

my brain is telling me to hyper analyse the chess pieces in deep cover but eepy

#sid rambles #GOD I LOVE CHESS #theres just SO MUCB symbolism u can dig up or create through even just the movements of the pieces #<- which then connect to limitations #<- then ALSO their loyalties #UGHFHHFGH im normal about chess and its black and white board and the concept of being unable to find a compromise. #being forced to fight an opponent not because of opposing beliefs (sometimes. because of opposing beliefs.) but because there is only one #+ spot on each side and you must pick your poison lest you surrender before the battle starts #and that doesnt even get into openings and strategies #there is SO MUCH POTENTIAL in CHESS SYMBOLISM that isnT JUST “SACRIFICIAL PAWNS FOR THE GREATER GOOD” OR WHATNOT #THERE IS SO MUCH !!!!!!!

[insert o8lig8ory vriska ask here]

no but!! does vriska still get work done by equius? go boating with eridan perhaps?

oh yeah wwe got her right here

#pics #vris #asks #yachtcore #anyway i think i drew her before for this blog and she was in one piece but i decided thats stupid and robots are better. #the timeline shifted. whatever. it literally doesnt matter #i gave her like an orbital prosthetic thing its like a silicone patch. i decided it would work well for the robot eye. #arm also based on some irl prosthetic but of course she has a lot more movement in it bc its connected to her nerves and blood flow etc etc #dont even BOTHER reblogging if ur gonna tag as just ‘homestuck’ like use ur brain. yes its vriska. no its not homestuck. #vel i love you have a good one #augh i love her :( ive been drawing her w this smile and this jaw since FOREVER i love her shes my dream girl

They love each other <3

#Doodles #SCII #Helix #ZEX #The Captain #Meme #And one more under the cut hehe #I didn't have that meme format mind until after I'd made the doodles but I'm delighted by it regardless hehe <3 #I loved this scene hehe <3 Specifically Artemis' perspective lol - it was such a brief summary but so perfectly written imo #In general the way scenes move is so cool! Scaffolded improv ah <3 Such cool construction of movement! #It's so clear where the skill implementation takes place - at least how I see it hehe - of how moving your singular piece affects the others #Not of stepping over each other but of having almost simultaneous scenes that overlap agh it's cool! Very unique #Except where it doesn't but that being by design to move the scene in a specific direction I jfdlsafd it's so cool!! #Anyway lol the scene at hand! Haha #The way all the pieces fell together is so perfect ♪ So clear how everyone played their parts masterfully to such a silly end! I love it #ZEX and Zelnick off playing with each other as Artemis just watches like ''Well there went that window'' smiling all the while haha #I considered for a moment to draw it from ZEX's perspective instead closing in on the two of them to hug his Captain but this was easier #And funner to actually see the hug in action hehe #ZEX hugs forever!! #It doubly makes me happy to have that meme format because I love the original it's very funny but hhh <3 #The way Mr. Momoa holds Mr. Cavill's waist is so lovely! There's another picture of his hand on his stomach and it's just ah ♪ #Humans and their pretty composition interaction! I just love hugs haha #Silliness and happiness <3 My favourites ♥
