I felt like they all needed 1. A proper full body design and 2. New and improved designs with how they've been developing in my head. So here we are!
This was also a good pose practice since I've been out of the loop for full bodies, considering I've been drawing alot of portraits
I am also working on new designs for the baldurs gate au version of them all, which includes different names for them. It'll take me some time because college has unfortunately started again and it's been draining my mental yet again.
These are also the designs I'll be mostly using for my own pjo story
Reblogs are highly appreciated ♡

"There are many solemn books about acting. But gaiety keeps breaking in on William Redfield’s Letters from an Actor which is proof of its authenticity. There is another. Redfield is outrageous. He maligns Marlon Brando (a personal friend) and the whole film industry (which frequently pays him well); and occasionally he questions the infallibility of Sir John Gielgud and Richard Burton. Add wit, temperament, a passion for the theatre, terror before opening nights, and contempt for drama critics, and you have all the elements necessary to be the author of a first-rate book about acting."
—drama critic Brooks Atkinson, Saturday Review
Read Letters from an Actor (plus companion book John Gielgud Directs Richard Burton in Hamlet) in real time with Emails from an Actor! And/or buy the new edition when it's released on March 5!

Curious squad announcements
England squad for ODI series against New Zealand: Jos Buttler (captain), Moeen Ali, Gus Atkinson, Jonny Bairstow, Sam Curran, Liam Livingstone, Dawid Malan, Adil Rashid, Joe Root, Jason Roy, Ben Stokes, Reece Topley, David Willey, Mark Wood, Chris Woakes.
I mean, it’s incredibly similar to the squad of four years ago that won and won dramatically, which is mainly good. I mean, they absolutely won on a wing and a prayer, but the same team will have the same wings and prayers, so. I’m curious if S Curran will be in the starting XI. Probably - hopefully - and it seems to me that he’s the one projected to take on the Ben Stokes, batting-six-and-there-at-the-end role, and he doesn’t seem ready for that now so I guess the inclusion of Stokes is good. Just, you know, it’s better if everyone arrives in India with the Captain able to move.
I’m a bit surprised by the inclusion of Jason Roy. He hasn’t done much for a while. I guess I’m pleased in the sense that I like loyalty to players, but I was expecting Jacks, Crawley and Foakes and they have all contributed more to recent matches (although admittedly in different formats). But I’m also pleased because I have loyalty to players and if J-Roy can find some form with Jonny, England will stand in incredible stead.
Leaving out Harry Brook though.
Chuffed for David Willey.
England squad for T20 series against New Zealand: Jos Buttler (captain), Rehan Ahmed, Moeen Ali, Gus Atkinson, Jonny Bairstow, Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Dawid Malan, Adil Rashid, Josh Tongue, John Turner, Luke Wood.
Yay, Will Jacks! I think he might be the crucial test player of the future so it’s nice to see him beginning to be included. Also great to see more Rehan Ahmed.
I wondered about Crawley, but the red ball and white ball teams seem to be pulling away from each other to some degree, so I’m not that surprised.
No Dan Lawrence in either format, which is a shame.
I don’t recall Gus Atkinson when Surrey have played Middlesex but I guess he must be something. Surrey are certainly an extremely strong side - the white ball team isn’t a million miles from a Surrey 1st XI. Which brings me to…
Seriously. Has Foakes set fire to a pavilion? Murdered a groundskeeper? Chained himself to The Oval and refused to leave?

In every age 'the good old days' were a myth. No one ever thought they were good at the time. For every age has consisted of crises that seemed intolerable to the people who lived through them.

Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier in Romeo and Juliet, which ran for a month at the 51st St. Theater (later the Mark Hellinger; now a church) in 1940. Dame May Whitty played Juliet's nurse, Edmond O'Brien was Mercutio, and Cornell Wilde was Tybalt. Olivier produced, directed, and (lavishly) designed the production in addition to starring in it. The critics were not kind: "Much scenery: no play," said Brooks Atkinson in the Times. Time magazine said that Leigh “looked like a poem but had no sense of poetry.” Leigh and Olivier were several years into a passionate romance that would, a few months after the play, result in marriage.

We all know I have no self control and will never be satisfied with how my ocs look, but hey, what else is new
So here I am with some new content related to this group, it was about damn time I drew them again
Some changes have been made, but other then that they're still the same. I am however completely reworking them as characters and their story. Because it'll be an original story:)

Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks: How and when to see the 'Devil Comet'
A Mount Everest-sized ‘devil’ comet making its first visit to the inner solar system in more than 70 years could be visible to the naked eye over the next few weeks.
The once or possibly twice-in-a-lifetime object, known as 12P/Pons-Brooks, is due to make its closest approach to the Sun on 21 April, which is when it will be at its brightest.
For those in the northern hemisphere, the Halley-type comet is likely to be at its best visibility-wise between now and mid-April, although it won’t be the easiest to spot.
“Don’t expect it to be dazzlingly bright - the kind of image you see in photographs. It’s not going to be like that,” Dr Robert Massey, deputy executive director at the Royal Astronomical Society, said in a video explainer.
“This is something that might just be visible to the naked eye if you don’t have a Moon in the sky, if there’s no light pollution and if the weather is really clear, then you might stand a chance.
“But for most of us, we’re going to need to pick up a pair of binoculars.”
He added: “Ideally, look at one of the apps you can get on your phone, showing you where things are in the sky, or a finder chart of some kind. That’ll really help you to track it down.
“And when you see it, it’s likely to look like a sort of small, greyish fuzz, quite typical for many comets.
“But you will have the satisfaction of knowing you’ve seen this once-in-a-lifetime object.”
Dr Massey said stargazers should look to the west-north-west after sunset to catch a glimpse of Pons-Brooks, which completes its orbit once every 71.3 years and therefore won’t be visible again until 2095.
The icy body, which is thought to have a nucleus about 34km (21 miles) in diameter, was recognised as a comet in 1812. However, it was seen as far back as the 14th century.
It is named after the French astronomer Jean-Louis Pons - who discovered it in the early 19th century - and British-American astronomer William Robert Brooks, who observed it on its next orbit in 1883.
There has been plenty of interest and excitement about Pons-Brooks over the past few months, driven in part by a couple of unusual features.
Firstly, photographs of its approach have captured the comet’s “curious” green colour.
“That’s because it has a molecule called dicarbon,” Dr Massey explained. “What that does is it absorbs sunlight and re-radiates some of it with that characteristic green tinge.”
The other attribute that has piqued the interest of observers worldwide is its occasional "horned appearance”, earning Pons-Brooks the nickname “Devil Comet”.
The reason these pointy horn shapes appear is because the icy object is classed as a cryovolcanic comet, meaning it regularly erupts with dust, gases and ice when pressure builds inside it as it is heated.
