I know that Brave gets a lot of hate from people (looking at you Schaffrillas) and I get it, but you also have to understand how important Brave was to me and to so many other little girls when it came out.
I remember going to watch that movie in the cinema when I was 6 and I remember just relating so much to Merida. I didn't know why I liked her so much, why she spoke so much to me, but I remember leaving that cinema with a new favorite princess. Merida was a princess but she didn't fit the image of a princess that me and so many others had. She was "rude", boyish, tough, loud, energetic, brave, and she didn't want to get married to a prince. And the most important thing for me is that, by the end of the film, she stayed like that. That, sure, those were considered "bad attributes" by her mother and Merida did change by the end of the film, but she was still her loud, boyish self and her mom learned how to respect that.
Now, you have to understand that I was a 6 year old girl who the only adult life that had experienced was your typical heteronormative relationships. Until that point in my live the only princess that I knew was the the shy, delicate, damsel in distress who always marry the prince in the end Disney princess. I didn't know that not getting married was a choice. I didn't know that I could be loud and rude and energetic and out spoken and Still be a princess. Sure latter on I figured out that I was aromantic and definitely not cis but that is not what this is about. I was a little girl, who shared all of those characteristics with Merida, finally being represented! By a Princess, non the less!
All of this to say that Brave may not be the best movie but by god is Merida my favorite princess
Good day guys! 🥰 I’m posting edits that I didn’t post here.
There is a mini comic inspired in a scene from Hazbin Hotel. Yep, I've already finished watching all the episodes. ✨☺️ For me it was really worth it, I liked it a lot and the Welcome to Heaven episode is a gem. 😂.
Also it's been a while since I made mini comics, so I decided to make one of my babies. 🥰 Hope you like it!
So when I said i was working on something Big Four related.... this was what i was talking about. I'm aware it's super sketchy, I'm gonna revisit it later and make it much cleaner, this is just my very first pass of this animatic. (((i got a toonboom harmony licence for my part time job but it was expiring TONIGHT so I just really rushed to get the ending done before it expired, so if the quality of the boards goes down hill near the end, that's why x___x )))
I've had this action sequence in my head for MONTHS and I finally decided to hell with it and try to get it down in my free time. And I had a lot of fun!! However, if you've never done an action sequence before, I HIGHLY recommend you don't start with a car chase.
My hands. My poor hands.
A few things to understand for this Modern AU:
Jack is a ghost whose life source is tied to a mysterious pendant
They were in the process of transcribing a historical monument that might have a clue as to the history of said pendant
The fearlings are there to both kidnap rapunzel and inspire fear into them, to keep them from looking into the matter further
The fearlings are supposed to look like this:
Which in my opinion is a much stronger and scarier design than the horses in the ROTG movie, however it has the unwanted side effect in my boards of looking like black sperm.
BUT other than that, I hope you guys like it, god knows how long I spent on this. ;;w;; but man was this fun
The first phase in love could previously be formed from a bond of friendship...and friendship can arise from little things in common like...liking to eat apples 🍎
❝This was the very first page, not where the story line ends. My thoughts will echo your name, untilbI see you again. These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon: I was enchanted to meet you❞.

Finally we have Speak Now Taylor Swift's Version 💜. I'm very happy 😆 this album was my favorite for a long time, literally a lot of who I am is thanks to this album.
There are many meaningful songs for me 💖. And one of them is Enchanted.
I always wanted to edit this song with my OTP, plus I missed seeing more of my young Mericcup. I literally dreamed of seeing a video of the two of them with this masterpiece.
The movie Brave was a revolution for me as a child. I’m Scottish, but I was born and raised in England - my mum moved down when she was pregnant with me and never moved back - and so I never really felt like I was Scottish. I don’t even have a Scottish accent, and any attempts at one are very bad. Brave was my favourite movie for a long time as a little girl, because I was a huge Disney fan and it finally felt like I was learning about where I’m from. I even had a Merida doll once, I idolised that feisty red headed princess so much, and even though some people don’t like Brave that much I still think it has its merits. Though that might be my nostalgia talking 😅.
