How do you pick out colour pallets for your characters? (Specifically the Mane 6 human designs) they're so good!!
I'll stick to the Mane 6 so far.
I paired everyone up first so I can design their colors as duos: Rainbow Dash + Fluttershy, Rarity + AJ, Pinkie + Twilight.
Rainbow and Fluttershy are noisy vs. quiet (visually).
Rainbow Dash obviously needs to be super colorful, but I couldn't go total blow-out rainbow with her, which isn't the goal of the design challenge. To stick to the era, I gave her scarf tie and pants colorful but natural dyed-thread colors: teal, orange, pink, green, and red. The vest, on the other hand, was given the bright primary colors of her rainbow-lightning-bolt cutie mark (the diamond patterns are meant to look like a bolt or explosion). Each character gets an accent color too for shadows, and I gave Rainbow a deep purple to make her skintone pop as much as possible.
Fluttershy's the opposite. I designed her palette to be duochromatic: just rose pink and yellow, with a hint of mint green. All her colors are very desaturated as well, though the yellow clothes help her stand out. Unlike Rainbow, any ornaments in dress come in small places, like lace edges, small butterfly patterns, bows, and earrings, as I feel Fluttershy would still enjoy accessorizing.
Rarity and AJ are cold vs. hot (visually, again).
Rarity's given very artificial, unnatural colors to give an impression of wealth and status. I decided to go with a deep blue rather than purple so she doesn't get mixed with Twilight's palette. I also kept her mostly monochromatic to give the sense of neatness and grace. Her palette is simple enough: pink skin, blue clothes, teal accents. Variations come in the clothing itself: patterns, accessories, fur linings, buttons, etc.
AJ, on the other hand, is given very earthy, warm tones. I actually referenced Minecraft terracotta blocks when designing her.
Tumblr media
I made green her primary color since no other character carries it. The red and green's meant to make her look a bit like an apple. Weird note, but I'm really proud of the dark teal in her jeans. It looks great against the orange of her chaps. AJ's palette was surprisingly hard to pin down, as I was afraid the yellow/orange skin-tone, hat, and hair would muddy her face. Had to fiddle with it a lot to get it where I want (oftentimes, the green would make her look like a park ranger), but throwing in a blue shadow accent really helped pull everything together.
Haven't gotten to the last two yet, but Pinkie's is definitely going to be crazy and bright. Here's a sneak peak of it, actually:
Tumblr media
Thanks for the ask! I really like talking about my design process.

Hi I'm not sure if your inbox is open but if it's okay can I please ask for a platonic yandere Adam and Poseidon
Tumblr media Tumblr media
With a quiet and kind darling/daughter that has social anxiety and abandonment issues so they wear Jirai Kai fashion because it's cute and as a coping mechanism
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sorry if this sounds weird and if you're not taking requests sorry for bothering you
Ahh~ I love Lolita fashion types~ it’s so beautiful and unique! My favorite things are multiple tiered ruffled skirts or dresses!
-You were soft spoken and gentle, but unique, dressed in dark tones with muted pastels, mostly purple, but occasionally pink, and tall Mary Janes to make yourself just a bit taller.
-Many thought you were a bit odd by the way you dressed, but you were happy. Window shopping, both at stores and online, always seemed to relax you.
-The stress of your day just melting away as you pieced together new outfits or pressed ‘add to cart’, it was so soothing.
-The way you dressed stemmed from trauma of your past, being abandoned by your friends who left to hang out with ‘cooler’ people, your family ignoring you in favor of your other siblings, leaving you alone, leaving you with both social anxiety and abandonment issues.
-You found your first dress in passing, in a secondhand shop. It was girly but also dark, like you were mourning but still feminine.
-You ignored the whispers and the stares, it was your safe space, in these clothes, they made you feel powerful, like nothing could stand in your way.
-However, there was a light in your dim world, one that was bringing the color slowly back, someone who truly loved you.
-Poseidon- You had caught his eye, holding a dark umbrella over your head, standing on the beach, holding your shoes in the other hand. You were…quite different, but he found himself intrigued by you, you seemed to draw him in. You thought Poseidon was teasing you at first, why would someone as bright and gorgeous as him want a potato like you? However, after years of being with him, you knew he was genuine, not telling you to change your style, like others did in your past. You felt safe with him, and Poseidon wouldn’t hesitate to intimidate others and make them kneel, making them plead for your forgiveness, because if you didn’t, he definitely wouldn’t. Poseidon adores you, everything about you, he finds your unique tastes in fashion fun, it’s not like other girls that would usually fawn over him.
-Adam- When he found you crying out in the rain, being thrown out by your family for being a ‘freak’, not wanting to dress ‘normal’, he immediately took you in and adopted you. Both him and Eve adored you, quirks and all, Eve wouldn’t hesitate to go shopping with you, finding it fun, and if anyone made fun of you, your new papa was hands on sight. They were so kind and gentle to you, treating you with such kindness and so much love that you never ever had to question if they would leave just like everyone else. Adam is hands down the type of dad who, if you piece together an outfit for him, he will wear it, Eve too, but she likes more of the pastel designs. They will never make you feel uncomfortable or afraid to be yourself and won’t hesitate to deal with those who make you cry. Nobody is allowed to make you cry.

How the Companions would decorate their homes
...and how I would lose my goddamn mind wrestling with Tumblr's formatting nightmare hellworld.
sorry to anon who requested this, I deleted your ask while fighting for my life :[
Cait; The punkest of punk design; whatever the hell makes her happy. Would take interest in things she previously never cared much for, like music, or tinkering, or model making. So, you'll have posters and vinyls of her favorite bands and artists everywhere, tools and materials strewn about flat surfaces. Lots of reds and plaid/flannel. Likes big couches you can sprawl out on and thickly-knit, chunky blankets. Think of pop art with darker colors, chaotic patterns. Loves warm, bright lighting, dim areas remind her of the Combat Zone. Her spaces are messy, but freeing and charismatic. Her style is best described as rocker college dorm room. Reminiscent of Chloe Price's room, but more mature and with less teen melodrama. Would have lots of candles. Has a statement shelf with feature lighting for unique alcohol bottles.
Codsworth; Post-modern. Modern is medium-toned, neutral colored, and somewhat minimalist. Post-modern likes colors, soft shapes, having art as part of the house itself. Bright wood paneling, one-line artwork wallpaper, multiple colors in one room. It's very birds of paradise in color pallet. Brown suede couches are a classic. Lots of plants. It's inspired by 1950s, but with bouncier aesthetics, where 1950s can feel stiff. Codsworth wouldn't want anything too out there, though. Dani Dazey is kinda close to what he'd enjoy, but tone down the amount of color, go less crazy with the decals. But otherwise, bright colors, patterns, textures—that's the vibe. Just a less plastic 1950s, and it doesn't have the Great Depression's fingerprints all over it. I would have said something Colonial, or classic British, but I didn't want to think exclusively about his accent. Codsworth is chipper, he's friendly, he invites people over. Something fun, welcoming, and optimistic is up his alley.
Danse; However he got the house/apartment, it would stay that way. Danse does not provide for himself like that. It wouldn't be until he made friends that his residence would have personality. Nick gets him an orange-patterned bedspread that's a lot more neon than it looked in the store. Cait gets him a retro CD player and wall-mounted CD case displays. Preston and Deacon team up to repaint everything minty green and install walnut wood paneling. The furniture is gone the next day, replaced with lodge-style log-and-leather. Everyone pitches in something different, something from their own tastes. As a result, Danse's space would be a constant visual reminder that he's loved, and gaudy as fuck. Nothing matches. The colors are everywhere. Textures? A nightmare. You could kill Ty Pennington with this house. There's a giant mural of cats having mimosas and he isn't sure how or when it got there. Loves it, but...who...why...
Curie; I really struggled with Curie. I first went with French Provincial, then French Farmhouse, French Country, Rustic Glam, Scandinavian, Flemish, bauhaus, pastel bauhaus...I felt like I was trying to convince myself of everything. Nothing fit her. Eventually I settled on girly vintage. The thing with vintage is that technically, 'vintage' has like 70 years of vastly different styles. So...you get a little bit of Victorian-esque, a little bit of art deco, Hollywood Regency...imagine a really nice Barbie dollhouse. That's the vibe, just make everything blues, greens, and purples instead of pink. Curie has a bit of an older grandma vibe. Floral quilts, Wedgwood china dishware and cabinets, antique paintings. I imagine she'd repaint or reupholster her furniture, if not get it new. Definitely has white or blue painted furniture, rather than open wood. Ornate vanity, seashell wallscone lighting, embroidered curtains, kidney desks, corner cupboards...Curie's style is elegant, a little outdated, cherubic, and somewhat saccharine. Would have naturalistic wallpaper with flora and fauna.
Deacon; Like Danse's, but intentional. He's extremely fond of furniture made to look like other things. Mushroom ottomans. Fried egg light switches. Wall-mounted shelving/hangers that are open, grabbing hands. Toucan table lamps. Surrealist thrifter in style. Goes to yard sales, estate sales, those sales put by storage unit owners when a tenant doesn't pay. Grabs the weirdest shit he finds. A McDonalds sign from Thailand. A taxidermied rabbit. A Bigfoot track mold. His walls are never the same color or wallpaper. The kitchen is mint green, the living room is pink and orange, his bedroom is black and blue. Maximalist. There's a story behind every item in his space and good luck figuring out which are true. The least chaotic room is the bedroom, decorated simply with space/star aesthetics. Most chaotic? The empty hallway filled with wall-phones. Only one of them is real. The others go off only when the real one does. He won't tell you this before housesitting.
Gage; You'd think it'd be a Male Living Space. No. Gage is a mean, old, materialistic [sexuality redacted] man. He has tastes. He has standards. Will act like it's a Male Living Space keep up appearances, but his place is probably one of the more expensive. It's fine, money isn't an issue for him. Favors greens, yellows, browns, lots of swampy colors. Steals streetsigns and hangs them up. Weaved and leather furniture, linens, animal pelts, mounts. Worn teak wood, cream walls, travertine floors. If this sounds luxurious, consider that Gage lives here. Unclean. Has no bed frame, only a mass of sheets and pillows. The most pristine places in his house are the coffee maker's counter, and the spaces for his pet lizard, who roams freely like a small dog. The lizard is the only thing keeping him from smoking indoors. So many fucking books everywhere, all dog-eared to death. Has stolen something from every party he's ever been to. Keeps them on display. Has a worrying amount of wedding cake toppers.
Hancock; Psychedelic culture-nerd hippie meets a grizzled ex-starlet who moonlights as a show girl. Think Whimsigoth, without the victorian influence and a lot more drippy shapes. All light sources are lava lamps. Conversation pit that you could meet God in. Many colors, most of them moody and 'sleepy'. Stereo system through the entire space. Paints on his walls whenever he's feeling creative/high, they're constantly changing. Has to scrape off the paint every so often. Collects movie memorabilia, particularly horror movies. Has masks, outfits, props. His kitchen/dining room is unintentionally Japanese-eqsue in style, in that the table is low, and you sit on beanbags. Really not into dealing with chairs in the morning. Hancock's ideal furniture is made of moldable jelly, him being a cat in spirit. His office is a complete divorce from the other rooms. It's entirely 1700s luxury Colonial in style. Dark mahogany woodwork, deep reds and blues, a (electric) chandelier. Big library.
MacCready; Eclectic. This style is defined by maximilism, mismatched everything, lots of tchotchkes. The core tenent of it is that it takes whatever looks good from other styles. It's magpie core. It's how the gremlin thief in your DnD campaign would style a home. So, lots of different kinds of fabrics, many shelves for trinkets, posters of all kinds on the wall. You ever make a wall with just the posters, signs, etc in your settlements? That's what he does. In canon, MacCready likes midnight blue and leopard print, but I can see olive greens as well. Very messy and busy. Raw wood furniture seems like it would be a good fit for him. Would have a big entertainment center, very nerdy space. I think Rodrick Heffley's and Eddie Munson's bedrooms are a good way of getting an idea. Kind of basementy, kind of glamrock. He's 22, what do you want from him? Very much "baby's first place." Duncan's room would be more child-friendly, lighter colors and softer furniture. His drawings always get hung up wherever there's space.
Nick; Also struggled with this one...I didn't want to just make him Victorian/Gothic, that felt too obvious. But...it's obvious because it's correct. It just is. His name is Valentine. He has a neon pink sign with hearts on it. This man is modern Victorian meets dingy alleyway in a Hollywood noir film. So, we're looking at victorian settees and woodwork (which is when the walls are carved all fancy, by the by), lots of dark colors, leathers, a fireplace to stare into broodily with a glass of whiskey. We'll also need a bit of industrial to blend the Modern Victorian and Urban Night vibes, so some dark brick/stone, perhaps? Or industrial light fixtures. In terms of materials, the aforementioned leather, but also velvet and dasask fabrics, marble, and rosewood, possibly treated to bring out the red, or be made darker. This space is mostly dark and black, with pops of pink, purple, and blues. Would definitely need an LED indirect lighting for mood setting. It's not as dark like X6-88's home, though, it's more intimate and warm. Heavier emphasis on coziness and inviting auras. Nick's home is an older queer man's home, so obviously it's a little extra, a little theatrical. Has a sweet cocktail bar setup, will make you a martini while you unveil your tragic backstory.
Piper; Also eclectic, but brighter and with some intellectualism. So, more vintage, but bolder and more assertive than Curie's vintage. The best thing I can do it point you towards Arianna Danielson's blog, and ask that you imagine most of those pinks to be darker, or just red. Similarly, Dani Klaric and Tay Beep Boop's viral design. That vibe of confidence, a little bit of feminine rebelliousness, and generally just spunky. A crucial item would be book paper lighting shades. It clashes but Piper would be into it. I imagine she'd want the place to be fun for Nat, satisfy that little girl urge for Maximum Colors. Piper would have a messy as hell writing room, papers everywhere, red-string corkboards, coffee cups. Collection of vintage newspapers, lots of plushy rugs and pillows, probably has weird little knickknacks hidden about. The type to have rubber ducks in her fridge and refuse to elaborate. Don't question the writing process.
Preston; Walnut, shiplap, rattan, navy blue. Reeves Connally put me on this combination and now I'm spreading the propaganda. People have feelings on rattan but it deserves more respect, just like Preston. His style is best described as hygge with a beachy edge. Hygge is all about neutrals, extremely soft and squishy fabrics and furniture, warm ambient lighting, and worn wood. Fairy lights everywhere. Cozycore, really. Blue and shiplap walls, walnut flooring, rattan furniture. Blues + white + sandy + rich brown. Best combo. Fucking fight me. Chunky wool blankets, velvet for more decorative cloths, like drapery or the fabric of the seat cushions. For decor, you're looking at handdrawn maps, paper light fixtures/shades, plants kept in colored glass vases, nature photography, a reading nook filled with historical fiction and textbooks. I can also see hanging greenery. Preston's space is refreshing, energizing, but not bombastic. I imagine he has a kitchen island with stools, but no dining table.
X6-88; Dark modernist, hands down. Crucial item is the Zaha Hadid moon sofa, in black. Steel, concrete, and sparingly, brass/brassy wood. Blacks, greys, and with the brass, an inoffensive pop of color. It's a minimalist style that, when darkened, takes inspiration from Gothic and industrial styles, but doesn't lean into them. Also has some futurism elements. X6-88's home is clean, elegant, sharp. It's designed to not be overstimulating, like the Institute's stark white plastic and fluorescent lighting is. LED indirect lighting + metal-caged hanging lights, velvet and taffeta fabrics, glass tables. There is no better kitchen for him then the Modern Kitchen 2020 from Burak LACFI on Behance. For the bathroom, Anna Kolos' work, also on Behance. His bedspread, the Ithaca Sateen set from Sleep by Sānti. I spent three years designing this man's home for a 40k word fanfic and I will hear no opposition.

HULLLOOO...
SO UHM.
As a Florida resident. I thought it was be mandatory for me to write Jack at the beach headcanons.
Summer come quick!
~ JACK HORNER AT THE BEACH HEADCANONS. ~
~ DW. There's, absolutely, some based around you and him ~
~ CONTENT WARNING : NSFW THEMES. ~
The smell of the ocean whispered through the air, the sounds of upbeat music whirled through the wind, the sight of so many shops, so much to do, so much to see.
Oh my god.
He had to get to his hotel early.
Yes.
The Bakers Dozen just had to bring his stuff to his room.
Do they get their own?
Yeah.
Did he pay for them?
Probably not.
Of course, him being the special hot-shot business man he is, he has others to unpack his bags. He orders them to put things where he wants them. It has to be perfect and he doesn't have to do it.
Oh my god.
Did he have to get the most perfect suite.
Just the right size, the perfect decor. It was large enough for you two. Well, mainly him. But! It had a large bedroom, a perfect king sized bed for the two of you, maybe even bigger than a king! The curtains were rippled with seashells, it had it all! Hell, he even got the best balcony. The gorgeous view, allowing you to step out upon the cold concrete and watch the waves gently crash against the shore, only to pull back in to do its favorite routine once more.
Oh my god his swimsuit. He definitely wears a purple Hawaiian shirt too. He definitely wears those perfect swim shorts, with some purple little pie crust design like his vest. When you first seen him in it, you couldn't help but gush.
First day!
Woop! You guys wake up. Time for the beach!
He packs a bag, probably the bottomless bag that poor ole Mary Poppins had. He slides in sunscreen, towels, wallets, maybe even an entire cooler in the bag! He shoves snacks and even extra clothes to put on over your swimsuits. What a useful little tool.
You were getting ready, sliding on your swimsuit while standing on the cold floor of the bathroom. The vanity lights shined bright in your face, like you were some kind of star. It allowed you to take in every last detail of yourself.
Once you stepped out, his head turned to look at you, his eyes softening. He slowly panned his vision down, practically slurping the very view of your tasty frame in that swimsuit.. Ohh.. He was insatiable. But, he'd focus on that later.
( MALE READER !! ) -- Once you stepped out, his head turned to look at you, his eyes softening. He slowly panned his vision down, practically slurping the very view of your taste frame in those swim boxers.. Ohh.. He was insatiable. But, he'd focus on that later.
You had your sandals on, so you could easily walk around with him. So many plans for the day, yet the day seemed so short! Gaaah! What to do!! You hugged onto his arm, as his spare arm held the bag. And off you guys went!
You already know he's putting sunscreen on you.
As long as you put it on him first.
Maybe going to the pool first is a good start!
You already know he's in, with his elbows resting on the pool sidelines, his arms hanging off into the water while he leans his head back.
So majestic. You, at first, kinda giggled at it. You had gotten a little pie shaped tube, but you only relaxed in it for a bit.
You'd rather swim.
You definitely messed with him.
"Jack!" You chirped out, a cheery tone melting off your voice. You were only a foot away from him, as his head lifted up. His eyes opened, probably for the first time since he was relaxed.
A brow raised, he blinked quickly, probably pissed off you disrupted his peaceful relaxation.
You kept your hand under the water but lifted it up, at a quick speed. You pushed the water towards him. It caused it to splash all over him, even in his face.
He let out a snarl, but more playfully, as you tried to swim away.
But his large hand already grabbed you and pulled you towards him, as he leaned over his shoulder and snickered.
"Don't splash me again." He spoke, you couldn't decipher if he was being harsh or if he was being playful. But, he pushed you away, as you looked back at him to flash a smile.
Soon, you guys got out. He wrapped a towel around his waist, as you wrapped yours around yourself.
Soon, you traveled away from the pool, stepping down the slippery stairs that led to the beach, chatting your life away with him.
You guys set up quicker than ever, hell, seems he even packed a damn umbrella! He wrapped a large fist around the handle and he slammed it into the sand, hearing the crunch under it.
Yay! You set up towels to lay down upon, as you both sat down beside eachother!
Don't forget he brought the cooler!!...
...
Oh shoot. He must've brought drinks.
Gotta know where this is going.
Getting too tipsy off some of the alcohol you both consumed, it wasn't long before you both were ready to touch and feel.
A stumbling mess of sloppy kisses, saliva sharing saliva, fondling upon fondling, need upon need.
Woo...
What a long night that was.. ( if yall want detail lemme know I'll make another of detail of this :).. )
But day two rolled around.
Blegghh.. Alcohol. You both weren't drunk, but just tipsy, so thank God you guys were still ready for the next day.
This time, it was time to enjoy the shops and even the boardwalk!
You both got dressed, as you slid on a tank top, one with spaghetti straps, the purple color hinting to who's lover you were. Well, more of the pie crust design pointed to who you loved with all your heart. You slipped on some shorts, ones that had some tangles at the leg holes, some strings that dangled loosely. You only wore flip-flops, or sandals, whichever seems even better to you!! You grabbed your wallet and you slipped it in your back pocket, easily sliding some sunglasses in the neck line of your top.
He was easier. He slipped on, once more, another Hawaiian shirt. This time, he buttoned it up, it had bakers rolling pins on the shirt. He slipped on some new boxers, that hid him just good enough to slide on some shorts. They weren't short, but were just long enough. You already know he's gotta be in some kind of flip flops, duh! But, he grabs some sunglasses, as his large fingers slide them on the tip of his nose. He grabbed his bag, that held more money than you could think and he waited to meet you in the living room.
Of course, you guys were finally ready.
You thought you guys should walk. He had other ideas. So, instead, he uses the carriage to get around the beach town to visit all the shops.
Shops. Upon shops.
You could buy whatever you wanted, but he always had that sour little pursed lips look on his face. Not like he was mad. Probably because he felt like you weren't paying too much attention to him.
He's more of there as a watcher, maybe even like a bodyguard boyfriend. Of course, he buys some stuff. But he prefers you liking it.
Oh, lucky..
The boardwalk.
Off on one of the extra sections of the boardwalk, sat a large boat. It was a restaurant, one he planned to visit with you after all your shopping and game-playing here.
Oh god forbid you didn't win the prize you wanted from the game.
He's already pulling a Gru. Using some kind of weapon or some junk to get what you want, but who cares! You won that cute little prize you wanted!!
And he always had a smug grin about it.
The shopping was the same as the regular shops, nothing too special until dinner rolled around.
You hooked back onto his arm. As you walked alongside him, his large footsteps shaking the ground beneath him as he walked proudly with you attached to him like a leech. It was a fancy restaurant, he couldn't help but pamper you.
When you guys sit and order, he makes sure to keep you safe right by his side.
When you guys get food, God forbid its wrong.
Thats a scene awaiting to start.
"Excuse me?" He snapped, his purple thumb clacking against his middle and pointer finger towards the waiter. You grabbed the sleeve of his shirt, knowing you should've just eaten the food you were given.
.
"Jack, no, no, it's fine-" You sputtered out, but his head snapped to gaze upon you. He scowled, a harsh hiss escaping from his lips.
"It's not fine! They messed it up," He snapped his head back, his brows lowering in anger and frustration. Don't they know any better. "EXCUSE ME?" He hissed loudly, as the waiter came over. They looked so sick and tired of his shit, as they asked what was wrong
"You messed up their order." He grabbed the plate with the hand he had been snapping at them at, as he shoved it towards their chest. "Fix it." He demanded, as the waiter sighed and took the plate, spilling a pitiful 'yes, sir' and stammering off.
God forbid he just try to feel sympathy..
Luckily, you guys ate and got out of there quick.. no more Jack harassing employees.
But we did get a Jack relaxing now, as though he did so much throughout the day.
He rested upon the couch, his head leaned back against the cushion of the sofa that sank under his weight. His feet propped up, the little sofa sinking under the weight of his legs. He had a blanket, or what seemed like two, scattered upon him.
You slipped out the shower, hearing his loud aching snores that you had long gotten used too. And you couldn't help that, once you slipped in some comfy pajamas, to lay down beside him. You curled into a ball, as you took one of his blankets and covered yourself with it. And you slipped under his arm so he'd be holding you.
But, you felt his large hand easily grab ahold of your shoulder gently. So gently. He stirred quietly, a small mutter escaping from between his teeth, in that tired husky tone.
"We've got.. A lot to do tomorrow, godI'msotired, so don't sleep in.." He spoke, but you could tell by the harsh points at the tip of his words, he was trying to he stern.
Yeah.
He was probably gonna sleep in anyway.
Day three, headed along the way...
Maybe now he'd take you to walk around instead of riding in a stuck up carriage.
Probably not.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
AAAH me when my headcanons are just a story kind :OOOOOO
Please enjoy these :O))
But if yall want I can write the rest of these :3c

zane skins/designs review!
first MCD appearance/wedding/white +gold
Tumblr media
This is ugly as sin to be completely honest.
Okay, looking a little harder it isn’t THAT bad. The white and gold are clearly reminiscent of royalty and status, but the chosen yellow is far too on the lime green side of the spectrum to be recognizable as gold or have the same beauty as gold does. The belt looks bad, it doesn’t fit the rest of the outfit well and it would probably have given more of a priest/nun look if it weren’t present and his clothes were implied to be more drapey. This far back in his character design, his hair was also very light, giving it more of an impression of being gray than black, which thankfully she fixes eventually. The shading on the clothing- both white and gold- is very harsh and uses some really bad yellow tones (when shading with yellow, it is almost never good to take the color just closer to black, instead, making it more orange and a little darker usually makes a more aesthetically appealing color.)
There are admittedly some good, iconic features present in this design which just weren’t fully polished yet. Personally, I really like the idea of the hood, as it’s a common motif in a lot of religious clothing I feel like. Also, it looks cool, and goes well with him having a mask and covering himself.
-
main outfit (MCD)
Tumblr media
The monochrome of this outfit works really well. All of the blacks and greys are slightly blue, lending themselves to suit his eyes nicely. The shading is nice as well. While the outfit looks good, I don’t feel the same about his face. His eyes could provide a nice pop of color, and since his clothes are tinted blue it should work, but the blue of his eyes is far too dull and light to provide any contrast or pop. Since his eyes and skin have nearly the same gray undertones, his eyes don’t pop as much as they should in a monochromatic design like this. “Also, they look like pajamas” - my boyfriend
-
other main outfit (??? this one’s white)
Tumblr media
“This one is super ugly” - my bf
The blue crosses are too similar in color to his eyes, it draws your attention to his knees instead of his face and eyes. I think his eyes work better in this outfit though with all the white, and I like the gloves. The strap around his chest is not really recognizable as a strap and the colors in the sword are obviously awful. The brown is really bright, as is the greenish-blue color of the sword (dagger?) Also, the amount of armor and weaponry in this outfit doesn’t really make sense for him considering he rarely fights. The boots/pants situation confuses me, I don’t know what’s going on there. Are they really short shoes and black pants of almost the same color? Visually confusing and ugly. His hair is still a little bit too gray.
His mask looks like it’s really long and with a cross on it. I think that looks really good. Shoulder pads are weirdly small as well, looks goofy.
-
rebirth
Tumblr media
Why did she make him sexy. Whats her issue
I like the belt/strap details, they add some well needed texture to the previous design. The pants/shoes situation is still confusing and hard to tell what’s what. Finally, she’s utilizing his eyes as a proper pop of color. Personally, I would make them more on the purplish side of blue, but the green tint does match his sword, so that’s a nice touch. 
-
Jury of nine transformation (I think?)
Tumblr media
He’s big. You can’t see his face. He’s evil. Very sexy of him.
-
season 3 (shadow knight armor)
Tumblr media
I really like the purples in this one, and I think the shading is nice. I think the red should have probably been toned down a little because it’s very harsh and yet again draws attention away from his face. I’ll say it once and I’ll say it again, the full gem swords are ugly as shit. No escaping it. They’re all bad and look tacky.
The reasoning for why his mask is shaped that way still eludes me. He’s wearing all armor in this outfit, so the same hoodie-scarf-mask made of fabric he usually wears makes even less sense. There’s definitely cooler ways to cover his face, use some creativity. At this point, she was only giving him a mask because it was an established part of his character, not because it served any narrative or aesthetic purposes.

beach episode (side stories)
Tumblr media
trans ? why is he wearing that.
The shorts and top have no shading. Other than that, there isn’t much clothing to critique so... overall I think it’s kinda cute. The colors are pretty balanced, and I appreciate giving him some kind of shirt even at the beach, considering he’s usually covered head-to-toe. Not the kind of guy who should have abs though. Not everyone is Grey Fullbuster, Jess.

What kind of lingerie do u think the enhypen members would like to wear?
I will do a description of what I think they’d like, color wise, design wise and include at least one pic as an example. turned into 2-3 but anyway !! enjoy:) pics of the pics to fit all of them and to hopefully reduce the risk of glitching.
pictures of both lingerie for fem bodied ppl and masc bodied ppl for reference of what I was thinking for each of them.
jake got both his…sets bc when I went to look for pics I could barely find good ones that worked like both ways and plus…I couldn’t leave out the first set it’s so pretty. trying not to spoil it lol.
18+ content.
warnings; the mental image men in lingerie/panties and bralettes (‘cross dressing’), sub enha, sexting mention, men wearing makeup, thongs & jockstraps mentioned, reference to ripping lingerie, and kind of alluding to camboy hee agenda.
->heeseung;
there’s smth about light/pastel pink and frilly that speak heeseung, esp if he’s wearing lingerie anyway. I can just picture him laying there in his pink panties with the ruffles playing with them (even a bra if he so chooses) while he’s recording a video to tease either his partner(s) at work or for his own (or others) enjoyment. I can also see him wearing a pretty white, probably lacey lingerie as well. you also can’t go wrong with a good black pair either so I think hee would be very traditional in most things he wears and would feel pretty/handsome in them anyway. he might even wear some pretty matching eye shadow if he’s really into it. maybe even like thongs or jockstraps further along the lines or as well I could those being something he’d try/be into.
Tumblr media
->jay;
another classy man but I think he’d be too shy to go out of the box without a nudge so definitely would start with solid blacks, nothing fancy, nothing lacey, a solid black cotton probably just to try it out. I can picture him looking in the mirror checking himself out alone when he tries some on for the first time whining in embarrassment but liking the feel of it. later on i think I can see him trying something colorful and more…out of his comfort zone in a way? something more provocative. something bright with a mesh where it’s see through, I’m thinking a yellow bc he’s trying something new so why not try something on the complete opposite end to see where you stand, I also think it might compliment his skin tone well, like a more toned down pastel yellow against his golden skin while he shyly crosses his thighs. gasp before I forget a good dark green would probably compliment his skin, a good earthy green and probably a good deep red as well, his skin tone is just so gorgeous.
Tumblr media
->jake;
I think so many colors would look good on him. from something warm to pastels, I think he’s got a broad range of interests as well. I think Jake is one of the most kinky and adventurous out of hyung line so I do think he’d go all out for lingerie. the ones with the straps, the crosses, the garters, the lace, the mesh, he’d try all of it at least once. I think he’d look good in a nice red or orange as well as a pastel blue, can never go wrong with a good black either. I think maybe he’d also like the one pieces? ooooh like the see through robes maybe as well, I think he’d like those and like to surprise his partner wearing one with a pretty lacey lingerie underneath. I also have this feeling that he’d be the one to wear a headpiece…he’d pair it with smth pretty in his hair like a crown or something. expects and even hopes some of his lingerie gets ruined by his partner(s) and their impatience.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
->sunghoon;
fancy…I think, he would like to feel expensive. I can see him in whites, pastel pinks, pastel purple, but I can also see him in a deep dark purple and a dark blue as well. he likes the cotton, satin, something soft and smooth, I don’t think he’d like any scratchy fabric or a design too intense or something that could be “too much” or “too distracting” and I think it’s an “yeah it’s pretty but I’m gorgeous too and I want my underwear to be pretty enough to attract attention but not be too pretty where it’s getting all of the attention” if that makes sense. the other hyung that I think would wear jockstraps quite often but he does really enjoy to feel pretty in the nice soft lingeries for his own and his partners enjoyment. definitely has the panties with a bow on the front of it, multiple pairs in multiple colors and would love if his partner played with it, during foreplay or teasing. like heeseung he’d probably also take teasing pics vids of doing that for his partner(s) as well. didn’t think of this until I was looking for pictures but like lingerie that could pass as pajamas as well or pajamas that could count as lingerie like the satin shorts possibly with the matching bralette n stuff like that.

Hmmm, just a thought? Normally brown skin has an orange/red undertone (warm), or a purple undertone (cool). Since Ganondorf has red hair, and gold eyes, with a lot of warmed toned design elements, giving him a warm undertone would have been "too much." Problem is, a purple undertone might have clashed as well, since it might just not have fit that well with the style of the game, at least in WW and OoT? In TP he clearly has a cooler skin tone Imo. Oot also has more of a greenish yellow tone, but maybe that's lightning, it's been a long time since I played. So my best guess is they went with green because it's the complimentary colour to red, so his warm features stand out even more, and his skin tone in contrast stands out as well but in a way that makes him look "not right." They just went a bit overboard in Totk, to say it nicely. It also gives an air of deadness and decay, since green is associated with rot and mould, maybe decay and death, so it's like he's "rotten from the inside out." But that's just my literary analysis classes kicking in.
See, this would work fine if we were talking about Ganondorf's design in a vacuum. However, that is not the case. First, this doesn't seem to be a problem with Riju and Urbosa, and the rest of the Gerudo to be honest. They all have similar warm tones to their design and it worked just fine. Ganondorf's green tone in TotK didn't really help him in any way that mattered if you ask me; he is always in a scene where the lighting is toned down with a lot of red and dark undertones that make him difficult to perceive. I always have to turn up the brightness of my screen for his scenes because he just blends into it. If they had given him a natural skin tone I don't see how this would have been any different. The other issue is how green skin has been deployed in media. I have spoken at length about this on my blog, but the tldr is this: green skin is often used to "other" a character so that the stereotypes they represent can be deflected by explaining that they are not human. Ganondorf is a walking talking stereotype of many Orientalist tropes. Then to top it off, green skin, red hair and big hooked noses are have been used in anti-semitic caricatures to depict the greedy Jewish man that is the source of all the ills of the world. So, for Ganondorf and the role he plays in the story, the green skin is problematic in nature because of what those traits have been associated with historically. Again, media does not exist in a vacuum. There is a reason that when they first designed Ganondorf and thought of him as a "crooked conniving thief" that they decided to make him a man of the desert. Finally, while Ganondorf has always had olive/green undertones to his skin, they were not always the prominent feature that stuck out on him. Just look at OoT Ganondorf in Smash Ultimate and TP Ganondorf; their skin has a more natural tone to it and does not diminish his villainy in any way. The green skin is completely unnecessary in my opinion.

If Bella's son (Tony) is purple and she is blue... Does that mean her husband is red? Like red and blue mixed together into purple
(tony is belle's child, they are non-binary and use they/them pronouns!) /lh)
SHORT ANSWER: no! or... maybe? i, or anyone for that matter, knows nothing on who her partner is! unless i am missing things. (if so, tell me, but be nice and direct!)
LONG ANSWER UNDER THE CUT!! A WHOLE RAMBLE, because we all know how i RAMBLE! below i talk about design process stuff, where i am trying to go with the story??? ideas on what happened to belle's partner (but not who they are) and Light TTCC Lore Criticisms.
thanks for asking! i actually had a small converation about this with a friend yesterday - of figuring out who belle's partner is/was. she never ever mentions having a partner, and she's very focused on talking about just her grandchildren. i know that is just to portray her grandma trope - but her being mrs. dama **AND** having a confirmed family and grandkids (and kids by extention) does make me raise an eyebrow at that!
i am sort of making my own story here, that's been in the works for over a year but hasn't gone anywhere due to struggles with cassie's design. but, now i'm getting there, so now's a good time to ponder!
--------
to the design-side of things - i haven't really considered these colors while designing collin, i just went with a more purpley-than-blue design to fit his role as a sellbot better. (and because i LOVE drawing and designing things with purple.)
i then designed tony backwards (after collin!), and haven't exactly considered who the other parent is. i wouldn't break my mind over the colors too much, myself, since that feels almost genetical and these fellows are robots. with that, i just made tony purple! (but red was considered, i think! on my touch tone touch tone telephone)
also, i am re-working how cogs/suits function in my work, so i am once again stuck on the "how make baby where baby come from" question. but, i stand with my previous headcanon, that it is like in Robots, where they build their children and just often do it based on their own physical traits they have.
--------
either way, back on topic, i wanna talk about belle's partner since it is fresh on mind!
i actually considered making her a widow - which my friend suggested too! adds a bit more drama and reason into some of the actions the damas take in my current story, and it makes more sense and fits together better.
would also give an explanation on why someone who's so invested in her family never mentions her partner - because she's trying to move on / has moved on. (though we don't hear of all her rambles and rumor-talk, do we...?) + we know me and my bright colorful characters who do goofy things who actually have slightly fucked up stories behind all that. i promise i am not trying to make an angst fest, i just want a story with ups and downs and conflict and drama to... have a story...? can't have a Real Good story if nothing happens and all is good, lol. just wanted to say that
or just a divorce story! also stirs a family apart. gives different but similar reasonings for actions the character's take... and POSSIBLY an even better reason to not discuss this (past) partner!.... why a divorce story? WE DON't KNOW HOW COGS/SUITS DIE. DON'T MAKE ME TURN THIS INTO ANOTHER ATTICUS LORE CONVO. ILY ATTICUS BUT CHRIST WAS THAT POORLY HANDLED.
and now it's being put under the rug without being DIRECTLY SAID it is being put under the rug... (aside from like, old comics being hidden and us being told there's a rewrite happening) so now the lore is even MORE confusing than it was...! so...! how canonical is "the first death" anyway...? if anything that's one thing in the story i want to respect. quite a BIG deal. but also even back then it wasn't handled as seriously and interestingly as it could've been so...! aaaand i am sure the Writers know that and i think trying to rework it is a great choice. but man. i will for once let my opinions and criticisms be public, hidden away in this ramble - staff needs better communication on Everything but ofc lore stuff is gonna be my first Complaing lol. yall r saving explanations for later and behind an event (thomas) and args...! please what happeun to atticus...! ok i already turned this into a ramble. MOVING ON. I NEEDED TO VOICE THIS PUBLICLY SOMEWHERE LOL. BUT YEAH. IM NOT PLAYING WITH THE IDEA OF COG DEATH UNTIL THE CANON CLEARS IT UP. EVERYONE GETS PLOT ARMOR LMFAO. MODS WHO FOLLOW ME PLEASE DONT KILL ME. I LIKE THIS GAME
--------
HERE I TALK MORE ABOUT THE FAMILY AGAIN SCROLL HERE
BACK TO THE DAMA FAMILY! now.... why am i so adamant of having belle's partner out of the picture?
i don't wanna design them. that's that. i'll be real. lol.
i am... ! already working on cassie's partner, and eventually THEIR child. this has been a concept for over a year and i'm slowly finally getting there, i don't want another member on my shoulders just yet :sob:
and the whole story i am telling here is heavy on the family drama (before i try introducing other characters perhaps...? cassie does have her partner, but her side of the story is a bit disconnected, her being a celebrity in my lore and all. generally being more distant in the family.)
so... that is to say! belle's partner could be anyone! could be red, blue, yellow... who knows! but! red would be nice because red on phones is Nice and The Usual Phone Color Depiction. you can imagine them as whatever for now, as i do not plan on getting a design done for now.)
divorced, widowed, still married... where my story is going is still unclear. and so is the design! probably will never exist. i'll see - i do need to focus more on belle in the story, as it's very tony/collin centric at the moment.

Fire and Sun AU- Starlit Splendor
Pairing: Storm goddess!Reader x Sun god!Haechan
Wordcount: 4.3K
Content: making out, fingering (female receiving), little bit of nippleplay, unprotected sex, friends to fwb, use of the petname ‘princess’, little bit of praise
Before he lit up the world, Haechan lit up your life.
Even now in the middle of the night, laying amongst the long tresses of grass dyed dark by nightfall, his presence beside you is still as bright as ever. He’s radiant in a way that even the darkness of night can’t take away from him, giving him a comforting presence you can bask in even if you’re not facing him directly.
The longer you stare up above, the longer you get lost in the spectacle. The sky is so deep and rich in hue it’s tinted purple, stained in streaked splashes with the silver light of the moon. A brilliant array of stars dots the dark canvas, creating patterns and shapes that tell an endless amount of stories with celestial jewels. You let yourself get immersed in the display of light, your line of sight darting from one cluster of sparkling stars to another. A smile automatically lifts your lips as you bask in the silver luminescence.
“What do you think is up there?” Haechan wonders aloud, the sound of his voice making you turn to face him.
“You mean besides the spirits of former gods? Probably a lot of nothing, but it sure is pretty from down here.” You hum in response.
“I mean past the stars we can see,” He nods towards a point in the distance far past your line of sight, “Up in The Cosmos.”
“That is a realm known only to the Primevals.” You shrug, reciting the same answer you’ve been given for your entire existence whenever you asked about it.
“So they say. But truly, what prevents us from going up there? I’m sure at least Jisoo has an idea of what lies above.” He reasons, and you’re not surprised by the emphatic insistence in his voice. This is far from the first time he wondered what’s beyond.
“The same way you don’t go past the fabric of the sky during the day, and I don’t go beyond the highest cloud, Jisoo only goes as far above as she’s allowed.” You explain in a tone you hope doesn’t sound too placating.
“And what sort of sky gods are we if we aren’t allowed to travel the entire sky?” He furrows his brows at the notion, and it’s as though you can see his thoughts running rampant in his mind from the expression on his face.
“The same way the underworld gods stick to their designated spaces underground, or the earth gods don’t go beyond the bounds of mortal territories. Even the sea gods have a point where they stop swimming and turn back.” You turn to him fully, propping yourself up on your side, “We all have our limits, and the borders are drawn around those limits.”
“Because of other deities from distant lands?”
“Presumably yes.” You shrug, quickly adding, “Though truly I’m not sure. I’ve never thought about it this deeply before.”
He falls silent, his focus shifting from the sky directly to you. You see his eyes search yours, and you can’t help but gaze at the way the moonlight highlights the high points of his face in a way that makes him look truly ethereal. It’s just like the sun god, to be able to glow like this even at night. Your thoughts meander the longer you gaze at him. Like the rest of the pantheon, he is unbelievably beautiful, but you suppose he’s been platonically familiar to you for so long, you haven’t allowed yourself to truly admire him before. Sure you’ve pictured a few things every now and again, but that’s as far as you’ve allowed to drift into fantasies about your best friend. Now, in this quiet moment, where you’re both completely alone with no chance of interruption, you let your gaze wander. You take in the planes of his round face, his expressive eyes, his plush lips, and you can’t help but appreciate the sight before you. Little do you know he’s doing the exact same thing with you.
“How are you feeling?” Haechan carefully breaks the silence with a soft voice, right before your gaze can dip much lower than his collarbones.
“Right now?” You consider the query for a moment before answering, “I feel fine, why?”
“I mean about…about Jaehyun and Rosé.” Even he winces at the mention of their names, “You haven’t talked about what happened in quite some time.”
“That’s because there’s nothing more to say.” You surprise yourself as well as him with how resigned you sound, how disconnected you seem to be from the entire situation. But it’s been at least five decades since you created the deserts in the east. You’re not sure what else there is to go on about, and you tell him as such, “I’ve done everything there was to do, said everything there was to say. There’s nothing left.”
A hum of acknowledgement emits from him before he falls silent. His lips purse in a way you know means he’s thinking, but all you can focus on is how inviting that plush pout is. His fingers move in a way you know means he’s debating on what to do with his hands, but all you can focus on is how strong and beautiful they look. It’s truly baffling, how you have been around him for your entire existence, and never let yourself take in how attractive he is before. You keep yourself from vocalizing your thoughts, not wanting to obscure the moment, but you certainly indulge in your fleeting notions.
It’s as though he can sense your sentiment, because he fills in for your silence as soon as your mind begins to whirl, “We should go up there. Up to The Cosmos.”
Your jaw drops slightly in an expression of dumbfounded disbelief, and you barely notice the way his eyes hone in on your lips, just in case you imagined it, “You didn’t hear a single word I said earlier, did you?”
“I heard you.” He nods, and the grass rustles as he shifts closer to you. You’re not sure what distracts you more, the fact that his scent is more pronounced the closer he gets, or the dark intensity of his gaze as he looks right into your eyes. You almost don’t hear him when he says, “I heard that there is nothing physically stopping us from going up there. The only thing preventing us are vague social constraints.”
“We go there when we pass on, just like everyone else before us.” You tell him, barely registering your own voice amidst the loud calamity of carnality beginning to accumulate within you.
“But don’t you want to see it before you become a cluster of stars?” His tongue peeks out to sweep over his lips for the briefest of moments and that’s when your breath hitches sharply, your chest lifting in a way you’re certain he noticed. And he did, if his brief glance downwards is anything to go by. You fall silent again, any words you try to say twisted up in the back of your drying throat.
You’ve seen him seduce others before. He partakes in indulgences of all sorts, so you’re used to him using various approaches to lure people in and inspire lust within them, approaches that so far have never failed him. And you can see why. You’ve never seen that smoldering smirk first hand, never felt the tension of him slowly approaching him while he makes statements riddled with multiple implications. But now you see it, right before you, and wow his aura is even more lustrous than you could’ve imagined. You’re drawn to him so easily, already wanting to close the distance between you both, wanting to feel those beautifully plush lips against yours as your bodies meet in an intimate embrace.
“Well if we can’t go up there…” He reasons, his voice taking on that telltale lilt that foretells mischievous intent, “Why don’t I bring the stars down here?”
“What do you mean by that?” Your brows furrow in the middle, your voice still cautiously skeptical, just in case you’re misreading this entire moment.
“I’m saying, if you’re up for it, I can make you see stars.” His eyes dip down to your lips before his gaze meets yours, a charming smile lifting his lips, “Up close and personal.”
The sound of your racing heart pounds in your ears, intensifying more as time ticks on. You’re surprised by how composed you sound when you ask, “Is this your way of coming onto me?”
He tilts his head slightly with a lopsided smile that’s far more attractive than it has any right being, “That entirely depends. Is it working?”
Oh he has no idea how well it’s working. His proximity alone illuminates a flare of arousal right between your legs, brightening with each passing moment. You’re just shy of spreading your legs right at this moment and inviting him between them. You’re still in disbelief that your friend, your best friend, is displaying the same wanton desire that you’ve only seen him display from afar. He may light up the world by day, but he’s been lighting up your world for far longer, and you feel as though you shouldn’t take that fact lightly.
“I can stop if you want.” His voice softens, his hand carefully fitting to the curve of your face, “The last thing I wish to do is obscure our friendship if you don’t feel the same way. Truth be told, I’ve been thinking about this for quite some time, having you like this. But it’s entirely up to you, how far we go, if we indulge at all.”
“I want you.” Your answer is immediate, and you lean into his touch to emphasize your point. You’ve gone so long without feeling anything, let alone sometime as simple as lust, and you don’t wish to feel numb anymore. And right now, with him offering himself to you so blatantly, intimacy with your best friend sounds like an excellent idea.
Both of his hands cradle your face when he kisses you. He starts off slowly, tenderly, easing you into the sensations. He acclimates you to his particular kind of fervor, fitting his lips against yours with practiced ease, letting them linger long enough for you to enjoy how plush and soft they are before leaning in for another kiss. His kisses relax you instantly, your lips easily parting for more. A wondrous glow of arousal ignites within you, gleaming right at the center of your chest before moving down between your legs. If it feels this good to kiss him, you can only imagine what other sorts of euphoria he can give you.
You lie back against the grass, grabbing onto the front of his robes and bringing him down with you. He hums against your lips, pleasantly surprised by your forwardness, and arranges himself on top of you. It sinks in that he’s not just kissing one of his casual flings, or a one time partner he met at a party, or someone he just so happened to find attractive. He’s kissing you, who he cares about more deeply than anyone else in his life, and his cheeks warm at the thought. He just wants to be perfect for you.
You can feel his heart hammering in his chest when he presses against you, conveying that he’s just as eager as he is somewhat nervous. His touch is accented with the slightest tremor as he moves them down your body and you’re surprised to see even a hint of jittery apprehension from someone who radiates so much effortless tenacity, particularly when it comes to sex. It’s rare to see him display any ounce of nerves, and you know that in those rare moments, he needs reassurance. So you run your fingers through his soft hair and let your tongue brush against his at a deliberately languid pace, wordlessly assuring him that you want this as much as he does, that he has nothing to worry about with you.
“Tell me.” His voice is deep and heavy when he speaks, searching your eyes with a desperation you thought would be foreign to someone so experienced with sensuality, “Have you thought about me before?”
“In passing, yes.” You confess, “And this is already better than anything I could’ve imagined.”
“I meant what I said, when I told you that I’ve thought about you like this before. I’ve thought about it quite often.” He starts to undo your clothes, letting the fabric slip off your shoulders. Even his warm touch sliding over your skin has you sighing in satisfaction. You can still sense a slight nervousness within him, as if he’s hesitant to go too far or make a move you won’t like.
“Then why don’t you do away with words and show me?” It’s your turn to let sensual intent seep into your voice. He blinks up at you, somewhat taken aback by your words. This time, you fill in for his silence and sensually kiss along the moles that dot his face, watching him relax and sigh at the feeling. Letting your thumb trace the contour of his cheek, you tell him, “Show me how much you want me.”
“With pleasure.” That confidence you’ve come to admire so much comes back in full force, and with a grin, he lets his mouth slip down your body. He kisses constellations onto your skin, as if illuminating your nerves and lighting up pleasure within you, soft and subtle like starlight. Kiss after soft kiss lights flares of passion that have your body relaxing right against the ground, your thighs subtly parting more and more with each passing moment. His mouth lingers over your chest, mouthing at the peaks and valleys of your breasts and memorizing the shape. Even as his motions get more fervent, there’s such deliberate care behind his every kiss and every touch that it makes your head spin. Even the way he wraps his lips around one of your nipples and sucks shows such passion that you moan out into the night. Spurred on by your sounds, he keeps going, his other hand fondling your other breast as he suckles on your nipple, letting his tongue swirl around the pert bud. Every stroke of his tongue illumes a radiant glow that permeates through your entire body, centering on the heat that rises on your face and pools between your legs.
“You’re so beautiful.” He hums before switching to your other nipple, his hands now making their way lower, closing in on your parted thighs. You arch your hips up, grasping the back of his hair to keep his mouth in place. You moan louder when you feel the turgid flesh of his length through his clothes, and you buck your hips faster in search of more friction. Keeping his mouth on your breasts, his hand trails down between your legs, finding your clit in a matter of moments. A brighter flare of pleasure over takes you as his fingertips stroke the sensitive bud in swirling circles, making you cry out with need.
“Haechan please, keep going.” You plead, spreading your legs wider, trying to coax his hand further between them. With a moan, he obliges, letting his fingertips dip lower, down to your entrance.
“Damn, you’re so wet.” He moans at the feeling of your slick arousal coating his fingers. He lets it gather on the tips of his fingers before rubbing your clit once more, lubricating you with your own arousal. His mouth works your breast, suckling faster, letting out these deep groans that send vibrations thrumming through you.
“Need more.” You gasp out, “Need to feel your fingers in me.”
“Of course, princess.” The endearment rolls off his tongue so naturally, as it has countless times before, but hearing him call you that in a voice heavy with debauched desire already has you clenching around nothing. Your lips flare and part for his fingers, inviting him into your tight heat, and your head tilts back against the ground as you feel the stretch of two of his digits. He effortlessly sets up an enticing pace, crooking his fingers with each thrust in a way that already has white dancing behind your vision. Your gaze hazes over, the stars above beginning to blur together as you indulge in the sweet pleasure he gives you. His thumb strokes your clit in tandem with his thrusts, irradiating bright flares of fervent desire within you.
“Fuck you’re so-- so good at this.” Your chest heaves with the effort to speak, your hands scrambling to find purchase on his hair, his shoulders, anywhere he can reach.
“I would hope so.” He chuckles against your chest, pressing a kiss right above your racing heart, “I spend the better part of my time doing this.”
And his experience definitely shines through. He finds your tender spots deep inside you without much effort, making dazzling flashes of bliss radiate with a brilliance you didn’t think was possible. With the added stimulation of his mouth alternating from nipple to nipple and mouthing along the peaks and valleys of your chest, you’re transported to a realm of overwhelming ecstasy. Your breathing picks up, your heart races, your hips arch up and buck in time with the spikes of pleasure. Your body writhes beneath him on the grass, basking in the light, letting out unabashed screams and sobs of his name.
As incredible as he’s making you feel, you don’t want to feel that peak of pleasure just yet. You want to save that for when he’s actually inside of you, so you grab his wrist sharply, stopping his motions. He halts immediately, his eyes darting over the planes of your face in concern, “Are you alright? Did I hurt you?”
You shake your head, your words taking on the form of a desperate whine, “Don’t wanna cum yet. I wanna feel your cock.”
“I thought you’d never ask.” With a smirk, he pulls back, making you whine at the loss of his fingers inside of you. He moves his clothes just enough out of the way to free his cock, and you can’t help but lick your lips at the sight of him. Saliva pools beneath your tongue as you take in the sight of his length, from the prominent veins etched onto the sides, to the pink tint of the flared tip, to the beads of precum that pearl at the tip that gleam in the moonlight. before dripping down right between your legs.
“I take it that you see something you like.” He quips, making a show of slowly stroking his length as he shuffles between your legs.
“Would it be wrong to say that I want to taste you?” You remark shamelessly, still mesmerized by the sight.
“Not at all princess, but perhaps some other time. Right now, I can’t wait another moment to be in you.” The head of his cock presses against your waiting entrance and you feel yourself practically aching with yearning, making you tremble beneath him.
“Then don’t keep me waiting and fuck me already.” You don’t care how demanding you sound, you need him now. Thankfully he seems to be just as desperate and slides into you in one smooth motion. You both let out synchronized moans once he’s fully sheathed inside you, hips flush against each other, bodies completely connected. He drapes himself over you, chest resting right atop yours, and he buries his face in the crook of your neck, breathing heavily.
“You feel even better than I imagined.” He groans against you, rocking his hips shallowly, not wanting to leave the vice grip of your tight heat for even a moment, “So warm, so fucking wet. I’ve never felt anything like this.”
“Haechan please, please fuck me. Please, I need you to fuck me, now.” You grasp his shoulder blades, your nails already digging into the flesh, and those brief flashes of delectable pain are just enough to spur him on. He pulls out about halfway before sliding back into you, making you mewl with delight. He decides that now isn’t the time for fancy tricks or elaborate patterns. Now is the time to feel, and he does just that. He keeps fucking you just like that, making sure the head of his cock presses against that soft spot deep within you while he indulges in your rippling walls squeezing around him. You let your nails trace lines down his back as you lose yourself to pleasure, lose yourself to the wanton desire that consumes you, lose yourself to him. He rocks your body with each thrust, jostling your body over the grass in a way that makes the soft blades run across your arms and back, only adding to the myriad of sensations. Words escape your mind, dissolving into nothing as you take in the way he makes you feel.
Haechan gazes down at you in awe, wondering to himself how you manage to look even more beautiful. Seeing you completely lost to the throes of pleasure, seeing the way you look up at him with those dark, half lidded eyes, seeing your body tremble because of the pleasure he’s making you feel, it’s almost too much for him to bear. Holding your face, he kisses you deeply, moaning out against your mouth as he quickens the pace. He bucks his hips with ecstatic urgency as he already feels himself getting close to the edge. He holds himself back, wanting to savor this moment, wanting to hear more of those sweet sounds of delight pour from your lips in sharp cries.
That radiant flare of pleasure becomes more glaring and blinding by the moment, your inner thighs trembling in a telltale sign of impending release. The bright splendor of sensual bliss takes over your body, your hands scrambling for purchase as you wrap your legs around his waist, pulling him in and making him slide impossibly deeper inside you. You kiss him back as best you can, right until that light completely overwhelmed you. You scream his name, your back arching sharply as you tighten around him in fluttering pulses. He picks up the pace in response to your peaking pleasure, and a sly hand sneaking between you and rubbing your clit is the last bit of stimulation you need.
He makes you see stars as you cum, just as he promised.
Feeling you cum around him takes him right to the edge, and hearing you scream his name like that sends him careening right over the edge. He moans your name right against the column of your throat, burying his face against you, shuddering as his hips stutter with each wave of liquid heat he shoots deep inside you.
He rests on top of you as you both come down, both of you panting heavily. Your mind still whirls, heart still palpably racing, and the only thing you can think to say is, “Wow…”
“I know.” He hums, kissing the spot on your neck right where he moans your name moments before, “That was incredible.”
“Now I see what all the fuss is about, why people can’t seem to get enough of you.” You giggle in post orgasm bliss, running your fingers through his soft hair.
“Glad to see my reputation precedes me.” You feel his chuckle rumbling deep in his chest, and something about being in such close proximity like this makes you smile.
“We are still friends, right?” He inquires, and you’re somewhat taken aback by the seriousness in his tone.
“Of course we are. It wouldn’t be the first time either of us had sex with a friend.” You remind him, wondering to yourself where the heaviness came from, especially since to you, Haechan is the epitome of treating the exchange of pleasure as something entirely carefree.
“Just wanted to be sure.” He smiles, and you feel your heart stutter for a moment at how breathtaking he looks.
“And was this…?” You trail off, your mind still racing to try and form words, “Was this just a one time thing?”
“It certainly doesn’t have to be.” He tells you as he holds your face, kissing you in a way that’s decidedly innocent considering everything that just transpired, “Whenever you need release, or intimacy, I’ll be here, should you so desire.”
And that’s probably exactly what you need. After going for such a long time hiding in fear from your own emotions, pleasurable indulgences are the perfect way to feel in a way that doesn’t stride into dangerous territory. And who better to indulge with than someone you trust on a level as deeply as Haechan?
“I’d like that. I’d like that very much.” You hum your assent, being sure to add the detail of, “Of course this doesn’t prevent you from being with whoever you want.”
“I do have a reputation to maintain.” He laughs, wrapping his arms around you in a tender embrace, “Obviously that caveat extends to you as well. Just know that whenever you need me, I’ll be here. I’ll still look out for you princess, just in a bit of a different sense now. I’ll always be here for you, no matter what.”
And as you continue to kiss him, you feel those wings of detachment begin to form. With each soft kiss, you feel yourself floating high above the earthly tethers of amorous emotion. You detach yourself from the weight of heartbreak, detach yourself from romantic expectations, and every kiss from your best friend adds a new feather to the magnificent plume that has you soaring high above the ground. The wax that holds the wings together is melted into shape by Haechan’s radiant light, and hardened by the cool night air.

happy birthday, mitsuya! || @kyukicho
It's just about dinner time, but Mitsuya had been instructed to leave the house for a bit. "Take a relaxing ride." Mikey had insisted, leaving the girls to him with the rest of the chores to be done. Practically pushed out of his own home and the door locked behind him. When he would finally return, Mikey would be there at the door to greet him. "Cover your eyes, Takachan." He beamed, waiting until his instructions were followed before helping guide Takashi into the house. "Just a little farther..." There could be heard giggling from the girls in the background as he's lead further in to the kitchen. "Open!" "Surprise!" The three of them chime in unison. Mana and Luna holding up a little sign they had clearly made that read in crayon. "Happy Birthday Takashi!" The kitchen is immaculate. Everything in its place and surfaces wiped down top to bottom. With the only dishes in sight the ones prepped to serve dinner. On the small table sit the steaming meal. A full set of courses that almost looked homemade if it wasn't for the containers they were displayed in. Mikey had clearly ordered the food but it was from a local mom and pop restaurant so the closest to home cooking he could accomplish. "Look, look." The girls cheered. Pointing at a cute white cake on the counter with flowers and fruit covering it. "We picked it out." To which Mikey smiled softly, giving a little nod in agreement. "This is from all of us." He explained. Watching Takashi's reaction to his sisters and him. "But your gift from me's in the living room." Sitting on the coffee table topped with a bright purple bow is a brand new combination sewing and embroidery machine. Its sticker boasting 100+ stitch combinations. With little basket of all the dozens of accessories it came with sitting beside it. "Happy Birthday, Takachan. I hope everything is as special today as you are."
He knew what today was. Mikey had only been the first to remind him him. The first text at Midnight. And probably would have liked to have been the first to say it, had it not been for Luna and Mana. Suspicion marked Takashi's eyes, but he complied all the same. As instructed, Takashi spent the last hour or so perusing the convenience store and the neighboring video store down the street.
Not quite the ride Mikey had in mind, but he returned with a small something for himself: a few discounted pre-owned movies and small bouquet of flowers. The flowers, however, weren't for himself but his company. His company who now had him navigating his home blindly, leaving Takashi to internally thank his familiarity with the kitchen.
Takashi's goodies still in a plastic bag draped across his arm, he made his way to the kitchen when he was finally commanded to open!
Tumblr media
Enamored, it was as if the room dazzled in a new light. Clean as could be and marked with the handcrafted sign in familiar penmanship. Takashi stood there, absorbing the room and all the hard work that went into it. Then, excited fingers and voices guided his attention to the meal, the flowers, and the cake. Takashi's eyes shifted to Mikey, the flowers Takashi had in hand, and then gestured for Mikey to take them. They had been designated for flower crowns later in the evening. The ones decorating the room, however, were surely going to find their home in a vase after dinner.
    “ I can't believe you all took care of this in just about an hour. ” He observed, his tone sounded distant as surprise carried it off. Setting his bag of movies on the neatly cleaned counter, he almost felt a pinch of guilt for serving as the first to 'dirty' it. The girls seemed too cheerful to mind, but Luna did shoot him a look. Mikey, on the other hand, seemed to look like an angel. Maybe a little too innocent.
    “ Thank you... ” He began, but both Luna and Mana were already rushing to him with their arms extended to trap him in an embrace. Instantly, his smile grew warm, and he tousled their hand with respective hands. “ How about you two find the best place to hang up your sign. I'm gonna step away with Mikey for a sec. ” And they were off!
“ If you ever had any doubts, you managed to lead those two to organize like this. I've never been more impressed. ” He remarked with a teasing grin and approached Mikey's side. One hand snaked around Mikey's waist, and Takashi led him to the living room where the mystery gift resided.
Shock overcame him in the form of wide-eyes and his jaw genuinely parting open. Stunned, no words seem to slip past his lips before he looked at Mikey. You — you went out of your way for this? The idea was hard to swallow, but he only looked to Mikey whose smile remained deceptively sweet. After the beat of a moment and a few glimpses from Mikey to the machine to Mikey and once again to the machine, Takashi snickered and shook his head. “ Seriously, you're unbelievable. ” Takashi chuckled, bringing his other hand around Mikey to pull him into an embrace. “ Thank you. ”
Seeing Mikey like this — as a part of his family — felt right. As if this was where they were both supposed to be. Home, in some respect. Softly exhaling, Takashi set his gaze to Mikey and smiled one of his widest grins to date. Ah, it was always Mikey who brought that out of him, wasn't it? Things were a lot more clear recently. Takashi. Mikey. An us. An us Takashi had come to find comfortable and warm. Only then did he realize his breath had hitched, and his heart jumped. He liked this; he liked them. Maybe now was the right time to make that clear to Mikey, too. Gently, he turned in their embrace, lifting a hand to cup Mikey's cheek to look at those familiar dark eyes. Takashi leaned forward then, all soft smiles and eyes with his intention. Eyes settled from eyes to lips, and he started to close the distan —
“ TAKASHI-NII, MIKEY'S STEALING YOU FOR TOO LONG! DINNER'S GONNA GET COLD! ” One voice called from the kitchen, and another smaller voice quickly echoed, “ Yeah, cold! ”
Defeated, Takashi dropped his head into a fit of laughter. His complexion, a bright rose, fell dark under his bow. Tilting his head upwards to Mikey, his eyes flicked as if to beg forgiveness. Hand decidedly drew from Mikey's cheek to golden hair then the nape of Mikey's neck where Takashi gently caressed with the back of his hand.
“ I think they're hungry... You're staying for dinner, right? ”

👁 I heard you can info dump about colors
Oh yes I do 👀
So in your post here (x) you asked: "I wonder what makes things "go together" like, why do some colors look nice together and some don't? and why do they look good to others? why do we have favorite colors?" let me go over them one by one!
Important: this is an info dump. I learned a lot of this in school from my apprenticeship (Graphic Design digital and print)… though even before that it has been a special interest of mine. Though I am also a student and focussed on giving out scientific accurate information. So I linked sources and fact checked my knowledge (new information always welcome 👀✨). Also: my first language is not English and I was taught British English in school, so… please be kind.
To make the post a little less of a "do you like the colours of the sky"-long post, you can keep reading here after the keep reading-break 🧡
"why do some colors look nice together and some don't?"
First: the colour wheel(s)
I know, I know, we always have to look at the colour wheels first. Though… they are an extremely crucial part of this, so understanding them, where they come from and such, already brings you close to find your colour palettes ;W;
There are basically two different colour wheels. In colour theory history there have been a few different wheels (for more research if you like: 1704: Newton, 1810: Goethe … there are more, but these are most important) you will see both of them being used in different context.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
First: RGB colour wheel (by DanPMK on Wikipedia CC BY-SA)
Triad of Red, Green and Blue (based on Newton).
Based on the additive colour scheme.
Used in lighting, digital colours and screens.
Yellow is on the opposite of Blue.
Digital art programs use the RBG model, so those usually go with this one.
Little CMYK ramble: When you look in between of the RGB triad, you find CMY, which IS based on RGB, since this is how body/phisical colours, light and our eyes work together. The added "K" is … Key, aka Black, since in printing you can't just print 3 colours in 100% onto each other. First of all: it will be a very muddy green-brownish almost-black colour, while it also takes too long to dry, will smudge, clog up the printing machines, which then need more cleaning… and trust me… any printer will call you and tell you to change the colours, so you don't have 300% "dot gain" aka "total ink application".
Second: RYB colour wheel (by Kwamikagami on Wikipedia CC BY-SA)
Triad of Red, Yellow and Blue (based on Goethe).
Based on the subtractive colour scheme.
Used with physical colours, paintings, for artistic understanding
Yellow is on the opposite of Purple.
You find this wheel ONLY in general artistry and most sites that talk about contrasts will use this one.
source: Wikipedia (shhhh~) | I… basically described the pictures | Bauhaus
Quick vocabulary check in:
Hue — Fully saturated colour on the wheel. No white or black has been added.
Shade — adding black to a base hue (deepens the colour down to black) — it changes the Saturation.
Saturation — intensity/purity of the colour
Tint — adding white to a base hue (softens the colour to pastel up to white) — changes the Luminance.
Luminance — brightness/light in a colour
Tones — adding grey to a base hue(subtles down the colour, but can also add complexities into it) — another saturation change!
Tumblr media Tumblr media

Harmonies err… Colour Contrast
We finally get to talk about colour harmonies, or from now on: contrasts. Since harmonies are neatly tied to contrasts. There is no "one way" to this, there are many, and also: you can (and should) combine them.
Monochromatic
You choose your colour and then run with it. You only add white to it. The deepest hue is usually the one you chose or you add black to it, to make it darker.
Tumblr media
Complementary
Probably one of the contrasts that are being utilised or talked about most. You use one of the two colour wheels and basically pick one colour and then pick the colour of the opposite side.
Tumblr media
Split Complementary
You choose one colour, and then go to the complementary colour, to just use the two right next to that one.
Tumblr media
Triadic/Tetradic
Basically you use the three or four colours on the wheel, that are equally spaced from each other.
Tumblr media
sources: Dulux
General Contrasting — adding harmony edition ✨
Since these where just the ABSOLUTE basics, and there is no (literal) nuance to these, those contrasts might work with each other, but the problem is: they all have the same value. They are just fully saturated hues that kind of scream at you and there can't be a harmony this way.
warm/cool and light/dark
You contrast your art with warm and cool colours. Basically, if you have a generally cool toned picture, the warm tones will pop out and these will be your eye-catcher.
Tumblr media
opacity/transparency
The deepest hue is the hue you choose, you basically turn down the opacity, letting the hue below shine through as well.
all sources: Bauhaus | Dulux | Canva | Wikipedia
Some things I do
No srsly. This is the part, where I am giving advice that is based on what works FOR ME. If you want to do things differently or want to get more advice from different artists, to find your ways, please go ahead and look up some more. It is important to find the way for colouring you have the most fun with. It is your art after all, I will not set "do's" and "don't-s" bullshit rules.
If you have a colour palette you are generally happy with, but the colours still seem a little "off" to you? traditional ways: -> with opaque colours: make an underpainting with a colour you'd love to pair your palette with -> with water colours/ink: a very thin colour coat over the whole painting (make sure to use masking-fluid for parts you want to keep white) digital way: -> open another layer -> set it on "overlay" -> throw a colour you like over it, that will fit the vibe — I often use some colour psychology and a colour association that fits the vibe -> turn down the opacity, until you are happy with it 👀
Using one prominent colour as an eye catcher and then use it ONLY for the exact part you want to draw (huehue) attention to -> most affective if it has a little higher saturation than the rest of your palette -> also PERFECT moment to find a complementary/warm&cool contrast to the rest of the painting
Shadow tipps
(digital) I figured, that shadows work pretty well by using a complementary colour on a multiply layer and then just turning down the opacity of that layer (you can layer those as much as you like)
10-30% for the contrast to not mix too much or become muddy.
With shading I do the same percentage "rule", while also using a complementary or warm-to-cool/cool-to-warm colour contrast, for more definition.
Have some cool (and free) tools!
PuccaNoodle — Animation/Art Ressource Sheet -> there are so so SO many more tools in this sheet. Seriously, I absolutely recommend AT LEAST looking through the different sheets
Colour Picker Tools -> Adobe Color — colour wheel/colour palette generator -> Canva — colour wheel/calculator -> Coolors — random color palette generator -> Flat UI Colors — assortmend of different UI flat-colour palettes -> Paletton — colour scheme designer
Skin tones -> by FizzyGutz on twitter — thread -> by Kupadraws on twitter — thread -> by @peachdeluxe — post
Colour theory -> by DevinKorwin on twitter — thread
_________________
Next Up: why do they look good to others? why do we have favorite colors?
Since I basically wanted to put these in here as well, but… the post is already extremely long, I will split these ;w;
There will be colour psychology involved!

Hey there! If you're still doing critiques, would you mind taking a crack at my pre-Beacon summertime Yang and Ruby? I've tried to incorporate some of the advice I've seen you give others before, which was really helpful when it came to Yang specifically. But yeah, I'd love to have your opinions, so I can take it to heart for when I eventually move on to the part of the story where I handle their Beacon looks. Thanks a bunch!
https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/those-rwby-fics/690057218773614592?source=share
(obvi you have my permission to repost in your critique, if that needs to be said.) ^.^
I actually saw this on my dash before it was sent in, and I really like the style you went for the two girls! Since their only meant to be casual summer clothes, rather than specifically Huntress outfits, I’ll be keeping that in mind and critiquing more for looks rather than function in a fight. 
Tumblr media
Starting with Yang first since my girl could always use cuter outfits, I actually really like how this looks overall.
With the positive, I’m glad that she’s moved from brown, orange, red, yellow, rainbow, ultraviolet, that light only mantis shrimp can see in the show to just black, white, yellow and purple. Slimming down her colour palette to just those four colours really does wonders for her in terms of looks and getting across her designated colour; yellow.
The black sleeveless jacket looks great, and the quilted texture on the sides just adds to the look. The inner lining being red not only gives her Ruby’s colour and alludes to her eye colour when using her Semblance, but also pops against the dark neutral shade. It works pretty much like the red lining in Weiss’ colour, a good choice for some characters. 
Really, the way the colours are used is good, barring some parts. The black when coupled with the yellow not only contrasts great, but also gives off a more dangerous vibe. It’s very harsh between two colours, compared to the more subdued and warm browns and oranges that Yang uses in canon. Also, the yellow stripes on her boots look like lightning patterns and it reminds me of Kaminari from BNHA.
The purple socks also work really well compared to just orange. I’m not too sure about one being red, I understand it’s for Yang’s asymmetry vibe, but you could also get that across just with obvious different lengths. The red sock looks a bit too out of place when combined with a light lavender purple. 
Similarly, the purple shorts don’t look bad, I can see how they work in line with the rest of Yang’s outfit, but it’s a bit too much. The purple works great as an accent colour, similar to Weiss’ red. With a reasonable size that the shorts take up, it’d look a bit less much if it was more a neutral colour. Plus, you don’t wanna use too much of the colours outside of black, white and yellow, or you could start making the design look a bit jumbled. 
The yellow itself is used pretty well. You avoided using too much like some designs that slap Yang in bright yellow pants, and it looks really nice when combined with the other of Yang’s colours.
Either way, the actual outfit is great, and you did well with the colouring. Just toning back the purple and maybe bringing some yellow there to help it not disappear too much would help!
Tumblr media
Ruby is really a character that you can’t go wrong with in designing, and you really did do great by her. 
It’s a simple design compared to the more lolita style that she wears in Beacon, but there’s still some aspects of it on her casual outfit here. I love the black lace frills on her shorts, and added belts at least help to secure her boots and such on her without being too cluttering. I also love that some of her design mirrors Yang, with the short sleeves and shorts under her skirt, it’s nice seeing how Yang has influenced her little sister.
The use of red with the cape is good. The red on her boots with the frills, laces and soles help to keep the red on her bottom half without getting lost in the giant cape she wears. Similar with her corset, the red laces and belt add some of the colour to the midsection, all without doing too much that it could again get lost in the cape.
I do wish she had some red on her arms, similar to Beacon, but the short sleeves and gloves are really cute. Maybe changing the black cuffs of her shirt to red, similar to Yang’s, could help with distributing some of her colour onto her arms.
While I do love the detail on the shorts, it is also kinda hard to see them with the black shorts and the black skirt. A red underskirt like Ruby wore before would help separate the two and let us see the detail you put in, while also helping her colour travel more. It’s good to think about colour placement with the cape, but you gotta be careful that Ruby doesn’t look too colourless when her cape comes off. 
Overall, still a great look at what Lil Red wears outside her Huntress clothes. 
As a side note, for both of them, I love that they wear a Yin/Yang necklace set. Not only does it tie the two together thematically, but the gold lining on Ruby’s is a good way of introducing Yang’s colour to her. Love it.

Earlier today I found out about the leaks for the Bratz Roxxi and Nevra pride 2 pack and since I really like to get into doll leaks and review dolls I thought that I would do it again.
I want to make it very clear first that I had to edit the photos brightness since these photos are very difficult to see but it is still pretty tricky so there will be times where I will not be able to say what some things are but with that said let's get into it!
Tumblr media
1. Pink Heart
So first off i think that pink heart in the left hand corner is a brush or possibly a tiny mirror. It's not the usual size for a brush so it is a bit difficult to tell but since so many of the dolls come with brushes I feel like that is the guess that makes more sense.
2. Sign
I have no clue what the sign says so when we get better lighting for these dolls I will come back to that but I think one of the words says Nevra on it but the rest is very difficult to make out.
3. The doll(Roxxi)
So first let's get into the hair! So the hair is a beautiful red it looks like but I have no idea if her hair is long or short but I would not be surprised if her hair is long but just behind her outfit.
I feel like she could be wearing a cap maybe but I have no clue but it looks like it has something on the side of it and than there are spikes in the front.
I really like her makeup and face up. Her lipstick is red and her eyeshadow looks like it is glittery which I personally like a lot.
Umm tbh I have absolutely no clue what is going on with this outfit but I will try and dissect it.
First thing that interested me was the dress. The dress looks pink and it matches the thing on her head but I have no clue what the design on her dress is but I think it could possibly be leopard print.
It looks like there is a top underneath but I don't know what the top looks like but it looks like it could be black or maybe a dark blue or purple.
The dress looks like it could possibly be plastic and Roxxi is wearing a rainbow feather boa and my lucky guess is that her knee high socks are rainbow as well.
MY OPINION: I really like her makeup and face up but I don't like her outfit except for her dress but other than that I feel like Roxxi's outfit is too over the place and I have no clue what they are doing with her at all. I think when we get better photos I will feel differently but I think this outfit looks a bit tacky but I am hoping it looks different in better lighting.
Tumblr media
From top to bottom:
Nevra is wearing a cute sun hat with a rainbow strip on it and I think she has something else on her head as well.
She also wearing a matching rainbow feather boa like her girlfriend Roxxi which is just the cutest.
Sadly the glare from the sun makes it difficult to see the top she is wearing so instead we will be talking about the pants.
The pants are white with a heart buckle.
The lipstick looks like it is a pale frost pink and her eyeshadow looks like it could either be purple or maybe blue.
MY OPINION: I really like Nevra and I feel like she has a look that is easier to make out.
I like her makeup and face up a lot, when I first saw her I thought she had the cult gaia face up but her face looks to be different.
I also love her cute heart buckle. Idk why but I could imagine someones lesbian aunt wearing this outfit but I think it is really cute.
HERE IS THE ORIGINAL PHOTO!:
Tumblr media
When we get a better photo I will come back to this doll and talk give my 2 cents again. I definitely would not mind if they changed some of the stuff up especially the box because i personally feel like it makes the dolls look like they came out of a dollar store and I think they could make more items for the dolls. I also really hope that we see Roxxi's outfit in a better lighting because i have absolutely no idea what is going on there and although i am not the biggest fan of them i really like the representation but i was definitely expecting something else and something a bit more toned down but still with rainbows and Nevra and Roxxi seen as girlfriends but the outfits I think make them look like they are at a pride event which was something I was not expecting which is neat. I think the dolls are assumed to be coming out in June which is the same month as Pride month so although this definitely smells of capitalism profiting off of LGBTQ folks I at least hope some of the money goes to charities for LGBTQ individuals or made by LGBTQ individuals.
These dolls are really neat and it's cool to see representation and I bet so many of the fans will be buying this and I might buy them too and hopefully before that we will get more photos that show a bit more but with that said I would love to know everyone else's thoughts on these dolls. Also if you like my posts on here feel free to follow, like and reblog.

Less Expensive Tips to Brighten Your Walls at Home
When it comes to decorating your home, there's one thing that takes priority over all other considerations: the walls. They are the first thing people see when they walk into your home, and they set the mood for how you want them to feel. The right wall painting can make all the difference in creating a comfortable atmosphere or a cozy retreat, so today, this blog will show you some easy tricks and tips on brightening up those walls!
Swap Out Your Electrical Outlet Faceplates
To remove a faceplate, use a small screwdriver to pry it open. Then, push inward on the tabs until they pop out of their slots.
Next, measure down from where you want to install your new outlet and mark with tape or pencil where you want it placed. Place a pencil mark at least an inch away from each side of your desired location before drilling holes into drywall (or plaster).
Once made, drill holes through drywall/plaster/whatever material is used and cardboard if using this method. Use whatever tool(s) work best to get them very close together, so there aren't any gaps when installing faceplates onto outlets - but don't worry about cutting too much off either! Sometimes, all you need are new decorative electrical outlet covers to make your home feel like new.
Put Up Wall Decals
Wall decals are a great way to brighten your walls without spending much money. These stickers have been around for years, but they're still one of the most inexpensive ways to add color and design to your home.
The best part about wall decals is that they can be used on most surfaces, including wood and tile. If you love the design on one wall but want something different on another area in the house (or even outside), change the color combination from one decal by using another sheet from a diverse set! You don't need special tools or materials—grab some scissors or a knife if necessary—and get busy having fun with art!
Using dry-erase markers as well as wet-erase markers will allow you to use numerous colors without damaging your walls or furniture: make sure not too much pressure is applied during application so not too much ink gets squeezed out onto surfaces like fabric couch covers when removed later (which would ruin them).
Choose a calm wall paint.
If you're looking for a way to brighten your walls, choose a calm color. It sounds simple, but many factors influence the right wall paint shade.
Choose a light color. Light-colored paint will reflect more light than darker shades and make your room seem brighter overall. If you want something bright, try white or yellow — but don't go too far off the reservation! You don't want to look like an Easter egg (and we all know how much those hurt when they fall off).
Choose neutral tones and warm ones because they will balance out any other colors in your home without making it look too crowded or busy on its walls! For example: if I had just painted my living room with something dark blueish greenish purple-red, this would be very hard not only because it's so contrasting from everything else around us but also because our eyesight isn't able to process all these different hues together at once.
Hang Pictures and Artwork
If you want to hang pictures and artwork, the first step is to use a level to ensure that the painting hangs straight. Then use a hammer and nails to anchor your choice of frame or mat into place; if you choose not to use an edge, measure where you want the artwork placed on the wall and mark it with pencil or chalk, so it's easy for later hanging.
Once this has been done, slide in your favorite piece of art—either framed or unframed—and secure it with screws driven into studs along its length through either drywall or brick walls (or plaster). You may need some backing board as well.
 Don't Neglect the Ceiling
Painting or decorating your ceiling can be a great way to brighten up any room, but it also has its challenges. If you have a high ceiling, you'll want to ensure that your chosen color won't clash with the rest of your walls. If you are planning on painting the ceiling, consider using one of these tips:
●      Use Color + Texture + Type = Beautiful Result
This is especially true for those who prefer warmer colors like yellow and orange—they tend to work well and add warmth when used alongside cooler hues like blue or green (which makes them perfect for bedrooms). When creating artwork displayed on a dark surface like wood paneling or stone walls (or even marble), remember how light will reflect off them when viewed from above—this can dramatically change how everything looks!
Create a Gallery Wall
A gallery wall is an excellent way to introduce color and texture into your home. You can create a gallery wall in any room of your house, but it's easiest if you have a space near the ceiling where you can hang multiple pieces of art.
●      Use a neutral color like white or off-white for the background and accent wall so that everything else will pop once it is hung on your walls.
●      Choose simple frames for this project; nothing too ornate or fancy! This will help keep things from getting cluttered quickly!
●      Try different sizes and shapes for each piece that goes into the display: try different sizes, from small ones up to large ones depending on what fits best within your budget constraints.
Remember, the most important thing when it comes to decorating is to have fun! Don't be afraid to experiment with different ideas. If you are stuck in a rut or don't know where to start, try one of these tips from our list above. The key is that you should never forget this feeling when looking for ways to make your home more stylish and beautiful; it will help you get through any new challenges!

still working on the name  ||   on the trail   ||  world’s end
a series of illustrations i did earlier in the year for my favorite podcast in the world. i was doodling one day and some of the poses for the third drawing came up, and fortunately i decided to make a set! i’m still in love with these pieces, this style is freeing and addictive and it gives such wonderful results. i think it was a great choice for this cast, and like, what can i say at this point that isn’t emo. it’s the endgame, lads... let’s see if we can make it til december with all that alex’s been throwing at us. love this crew, the story, and the medium. hope it shows. enjoy!
ID after the cut because it is *a kilometer* long
[ID: a series of three digital illustrations of rusty quill gaming, one for each party rotation. they are all drawn in a minimalistic style with bright, mostly flat colors with subtle grainy gradients, spiral patterns and pencil-like outlines. all figures are made into predominantly sharp and angular shapes, and despite the varying poses it is all made so each face is in a full profile. the first image corresponds to season 1, and shows the london rangers posing as a team in front of a building on the street; the group is in front of an entrance door, and between the identical windows on each side of it. hamid and zolf are in front, and bertie and sasha behind them. the background is done in brown tones, and the party is considerably more colorful and flashy. hamid stands to the left casually, with his weight on his left leg and the same hand on his pocket. his right hand is lifted and from his index finger come out swirly sparks and stars. he's looking back at the rest of the group with a confident smile. he's dressed in a purple suit with light pinstripes, a deep green vest, and a pink cravat with a gem in the center over the white collar of a shirt. he's also wearing an ornate red scarf loosely draped around his shoulders, so the two ends fall in curves at either side behind him. his magic sleeves have a faint swirling pattern and golden cuffs to match the gem on his cravat, the rings on his right hand, a visible piercing on his ear, and his eyeshadow. his skin is dark brown and his hair and eyes too, only a darker shade of it. his hair is slicked back and curls back up by his nape, and there's a single curly strand loose  by his forehead. to the right stands zolf, holding his steely-blue trident up with his right hand, making for a straight line just off the middle of the composition, and just below bertie's chin. he 's holding his left hand outwards to the left, holding his driftwood dolphin in a water bubble and looking at it impassively. his hair is blond and messy, and the mustache and twin-braided beard hide his mouth. his skin is pale and muted. he's wearing his old leather raincoat, which is plain dark gray and stained at the bottom edges, but the collar and ends of the sleeves have a pattern of blue, rolling waves. the scale armor he wears beneath it is made up of curving stripes of dark and light green-blues. behind them is bertie, who poses triumphantly holding his sword with his right hand over his shoulders, left on his hip, and standing so his left leg supports his weight and the right is stretched out to the side, balancing on the heel. he's smiling widely, with a vaguely challenging expression. he's very white and very blond. his armor is golden and is all pointy bits and falcons, with swirly, ornate borders and red accents on his upper arms and belt. he's wearing a rich red coat underneath, the collar of which is visible above the falcon on his chest, and from the fall of it behind his legs. just to his side and behind him, partially obscured by the group, is sasha. she's holding one dagger down and another up and above her head, slightly hunched forward, looking back at bertie with great annoyance. she's dressed in all black, with faint swirling designs only on the collar and sleeves of her studded leather jacked, and the top of her boots as well. the left hand where she holds the only partly visible dagger is missing the ring finger. she's very pale, has a burn on the side of her face, and has dark eyebags. her hair is very short and spiky.
the second illustration is for season 3. it shows the LOLOMG standing in a sunny desert among low dunes, with hamid and grizzop on opposing sides, and azu and sasha a little closer together, making the composition of the figures into a triangle with its tip on the heart of aphrodite, which azu is holding up. hamid is on the far left, maintaining his design for the most part. his hair is a little less curly, his eyeliner is running, and there are scales up his neck. he now has his purple magical robe, which has swirly borders on the outside, and a design of concentric circles covering the inside of it. he's dressed in a plain black suit with a dark gray vest, which has a discreet design of diamonds. he's stood as if he'd been investigating the footprints to his side on the ground, with a magnifying glass in hand, and has turned just his head to look at the heart. he looks on with slight surprise. on the other side is grizzop, standing similarly and with another set of footprints mirroring the ones in hamid's side. he holds his left hand near his head like he'd been looking off into the distance, but is turning to the heart with a big grin full of fangs. like hamid, his weight is on his outer leg and he's leaning forward, but on his left hand he carries his bow, which is simple and colored in with orange. he's wearing a green coat that has a pattern of vines on the inside and on the collar. he has his breastplate with the artemis insignia, a cream shirt underneath, shoulder pauldrons and his quiver on his back. he has gloves and arm guards, with a matching pair for his shins. his pants are plain and light brown. his skin is dark gray and freckly, his eyes bright red, and eyebrows black. there is a little cut on his nose and a moon earing on his long, visible ear. behind him is sasha, with the same clothes as before. this time she has two belts, crossed one over the other, where she keeps the sheaths of her fire and ice daggers. the ice dagger is sheathed, the fire one she's holding upwards on her right hand. her left hand is to her chest, and her fingers are now pointy and claw-like. she's standing wearily, and on her right leg, where the fall of the jacket doesn't cover her, there are two small daggers strapped to her thigh. her skin is now gray, she has a burn on this side of her face too, her hair is slightly longer, still messy and spiky, and the back of it is white. her eyes are wide but her mouth is a tiny line. finally, in front of her and behind hamid, is azu. she's holding her left arm up, with the heart of aphrodite floating a little bit above her hand. it's a rose gold clam with curving patterns, and its chain revolves around azu's hand. she has her right arm to the side, holding her bright pink great axe so the blade of it is poised against the floor just behind her. she's standing as if she was taking a step forward, leaning on her left leg, and the right touching the floor only with the tip of her foot. her skin is dark brown, her head is shaved, and she's smiling joyfully at the heart, one of her tusks poking out. she's wearing bright pink armor on her upper half, covered in spiral and heart patterns, as is the light yellow cape she has draped around her shoulders, which falls straight down behind her. her pants are also yellow and her greaves pink.
the final illustration is for season 4. it shows the party charging together, from the right to the left, amidst an orange and brown toned expanse filled with heavy dust and smoke. the clouds rush diagonally from bottom left to upper right, to give the scene a sense of movement. all characters have marked eyebags and are colored a bit more washed out than in the previous images. leading the charge is azu. her aspect remains the same, but she is running while swinging her axe back, in such a way that the handle and blade of it pass diagonally downwards in front of her figure. only her left leg is fully stretched, with just her right foot as she turns, and she has her back to us while she looks to the left with a stern expression, eyes narrowed and mouth frowning. there is a scar on her eyebrow. behind her comes zolf, running along with his glaive held with both hands. his hair is short and white, and his beard is done up in a single braid that swings back due to the speed. he looks livelier, set and decided, and there's a scar on his visible temple. his old coat is still dark but the ocean patterns have been replaced by sun-like streaks, in yellows and ochres. his breastplate is silver and with similar patterns, which also match the ones on the blade of the glaive. his trousers are plain blue and his boots brown. a little above him is hamid, flying fast and breathing fire through gritted fangs. the fire is a small trail of reds and oranges, in a single, waving shape going back in an arc above his head. he looks very angry, there are more scales under his eyes, and his hair is a little shorter, more sharp than curved. he's holding his right claw up in a threatening manner, the left one held down but also opened and ready. he's flying with one leg up and the other stretched behind him, the cape almost straight to the right because of the speed. his suit is nearly black, the cravat is light blue, and the vest green and with a pattern of scales. at the end is cel, who's running along with a big grin an narrowed eyes. their skinny arms and legs make them look long and gangly, leaning forward so intensely that their back and billowing coat are in a parallel line to that of their left thigh, with which they're taking the step forward. their right arm comes down, bending and holding a green potion near their face, and their left does the opposite, held up and carrying their crossbow so it points back at the way they've come from. it's got an arrow ready to go and it's turned so the body of it looks like it's being seen straight from above. their skin is pale, their ear pointy, and their hair is gray and very vertical, curving back, again due to speed. their goggles are on their forehead, brown and with green lenses. they wear a long, plain brown coat with an inside of gray spirals. underneath, their shirt has a design of tight little swirls in green and orange, with a bandolier over it. their trousers are plain black and their boots dark brown. end ID]
