linocut study of the poster for the 1924 film orlacs hände :-)

#artwork #the hands of orlac #conrad veidt #my most recent linocut hooraaaay i really like how this one turned out #i have done two others which i havent posted yet but i will soon. or at least one of them (i dont like how the other one turned out so much #anyway i love this film his acting in it is superb he makes the most incredible tortured faces #really a masterclass in forehead vein performance #i am away from my lino tools now that i am back at uni so i cannot make any more for a while :-( alas #i think it is probably a good thing though because i have inflicted multiple injuries upon myself as a result of doing so much #dopey bastard disease #i hope you are all well my friends!!! my usual apologies for unanswered asks which i say every time i post everything. i am sorry i love yo #oh also i should confess i only have black ink so i cobbled this together by printing on white and then red paper and splicing the two #pictures together digitally. i am sorry for my deception </3 i am a fraud. a con artist #he he. con artist. artist. he he

#okay like sue me. sometimes i google 'neioo' just because im a nosey bitch and want to see if anyone is talking about my fics #(i just got a comment on awh and like it makes me nostalgic etc. whatever. wanted to see if anything posted somewhere prompted it) #and i havent done this in a while #so please tell me why. WHY am i cited in someone's fucking PhD dissertation #yes the paper overall is about fandom and examining hetalia in particular so it's not like out of left field #but there are two fics total cited and mine is one. AND also there is a post from my fucking neioo blog cited??? #like my book announcement one?? #and neither of these are cited directly in the dissertation just at the end #so now i feel like im going a bit insane but like okay #i have work i need to be doing and i was reading this fucking dissertation instead #wish i could turn to 15 year old me and be like 'hey there champ. you know that fic series youre day dreaming in your head #that you don't want to write down because you think no one will read it #good stuff. anyway. one day it'll be cited in a dissertation #oh and your grandmother will have read it. have a good day' #...............well. now i need to focus back on work

what this is teaching me is that im funnier and more correct and i should make more posts

#i dont original post anymore cause i used to liveblog my college lessons on here and like..... look im all for internet preservation but if #its from 2020 and i find it again im deleting that shit sorry #but yeah doing that for like a year and a half and then experiencing the clarity of march-may 2021 made me go Jesus Christ #I Do Not Want To Live Like This #and proceeded to just not make original posts that weren't 'art' or 'silly image i made' #also all the posts of mine that have got a lot of notes in a short amount of time in the past couple years have been shit i thought of #between the hours of 12 and 4am #good lord a tag rant havent done one of these in a while #i feel the need to be presentable on here when i make original posts because of the above and also people follow me on here? #but i'm trying to adopt the whole You're In My House; Bitch thing

[dandyshucks]

if I try to mess with the eyes on the first one anymore I'm going to lose my mind DBDNDML so here have some self insert art,,,, also the houndoom was largely copied from someone else's art (dvixie/SkyVixie on deviantart, the art seems to have been taken down from their gallery though, I just found the art on pinterest and then had to track down the artist fjfkdl idk why ppl repost art with no credit 😭), I was trying to just get a feel for drawing them so I figured (HEAVILY) referencing someone else's piece would be alright for this sort of personal art thing!!

#aaaand I'll turn off rbs too djdksl i dont want to take any credit for that houndoom #i changed a couple minor things but dbfkdl it rly is just me looking at that other person's art and trying to draw it myself #it was good for getting a feel for how to draw them though!!! this was before the other art featuring houndoom i did a while ago #so i think it helped a lot to be able to draw houndoom again on my own this time fjfkdjdl #gave me a feel for placement and anatomy and whatnot #i know copying is largely considered to be Bad in the art community but if u do it the right way i think it can be beneficial to ur art #u just have to be careful and not claim credit for it fjdkl like... idk be smart and respectful #i think this is the first time I've ever done smth like this actually SNDKSL #the closest i get to copying is using free-to-use pose bases occasionally and even then i sometimes clarify in the tags that im using one #every day i fear someone will walk up and show all the drawings I've used free-to-use pose bases for #and be like AHA. I'VE FOUND YOU OUT. YOU'RE A FAKE ARTIST!!!! #and its like... no... i just like using free-to-use pose bases sometimes DBDJDKL #takes out the work of figuring out posing sometimes when im tired of coming up w my own fjfkdl #ANYWAYS. RAMBLE OVER SORRY SNDJFKDL #moral of the story: if u copy art just do it in a respectful and clear way and don't take credit for it when its not yours sbdjdksl #okay im going to skedaddle off this post before i stick my foot in my mouth if i havent already djdkdls WAUGH i am afraid of posting this #but i want to share self insert stuff somewhere sjfjdkl and i like the human posing i did on the second one so... SIGH. #dandy.cmd #doodlebug.png #junebug 🪲

my nano project this year is in third person omniscient as opposed to my usual third person limited omniscient which, while i did suspect would be an adjustment, has revealed a lot of unexpected problems i have never needed to solve before. do you have any idea how many things i solve in a scene by going "well [pov character] just doesnt have to think about that"???

for example i was tired of giving characters names while writing so thought i was so clever to just have a character forget the name of the person he's speaking to so i didnt have to give her a name but JOKES ON ME two paragraphs later was an excellent time to get some insight into her thoughts so i could also get in some exposition so i have to give her a name after all. i didnt do it i put [switch character pov?] and skipped ahead a scene but now it's time. back to fantasynamegenerators.com i go

#good idea generator #i think i want a stronger narrator so i don't get as caught up with the characters #but then i have to make major decisions about like. tone and theme and shit and i'm not there yet. ok #we're spitballing. we're flying by the seat of our pants. there's 15 different ideas for the overall plot going around #but also i havent written anything (i think) with a narrator that is distinct from the characters in the story #like i do think my narrative voice is pretty strong but it's usually like. a character in the story's pov #(tangent. was going through old docs recently and idk what it was but EVERY fic with a taako pov was fucking killer. #bangers every single one oh my god i was SO funny. i should post some of those but none are finished LMAO tangent over) #anyway while i do enjoy a strong pov character narrative voice i also think it would be fun to have the narrator be their own character #bc i havent done it before and it could be fun! but like i said. then i have to decide so many things so fast #i actually probably dont. but i would want to

Bro what do you mean endori is only 4 events from the graduation event. Stop it stop it Now

#rat rambles #band posting #bro theyre on the yukiran event rn with crying ran its so jover #yall arent allowed to be catching up thats illegal #well ok saying theyre catching up is egagerating a bit but still thats so scary #I only noticed this because Ive been thinking abt yukiran again because I alas love them still and I found out thats the current event in en #bro once mygo is in en thats rly when its going to be jover #and you know if endori does succeed in catching up one day theyll be in shambles immediately afterwards #although who knows I havent been keeping up with endori so maybe its miraculously become a functional english server again #like idk endori has never been perfect but at least its almost always been more usable than ensekai lol #bro the song list ui alone is enough to make me wanna beg ensekai players to delete it #its ridiculously ugly and unprofessional and also I hate a lot of the english names for songs (~close to grey~ is the big one for me) #also just in general ensekai is incredibly ugly and unstable even by sekai standards and it has done nothing to earn my trust in any regard #like idk if you care at all abt the actual rhythm game part of it I see no reason to not get the japanese version #like I get wanting to have a convienent place to read all the stories translated (even if I do Not trust the translators) #but like even with bndori which I started and played on endori for well over a year I still ended up drifting to jpdori as my main #the massively expanded songlist and up to date events just seem impossible to give up to me if you know how to access them #like ofc I wont go yelling at ppl to play on jp servers (plus theyd make multilives Much more unbarable) idc that much lol #but still I think if you can its a good idea to make a jp account if only so you can play jp exclusive songs if you want #this applies to both sekai and bndori to be clear although Id forgive an endori player for wanting to savor the old ui while they can lol #sekais new ui is fine but bndori's is literally sooooo ugly such a massive downgrade #also while I dont hate the new art direction as much as some ppl I definitely think its worse than the old one by a lot #its so dusty now </3 #anyways I got off topic there time to stop talking

[todayisafridaynight]

this isn't related to rgg at all but finding out you're also a fire emblem fan was great... first the mention of the ike figure then the insane por prices LMAO? i had no idea... what games have you played?

Back In My Day i was known as ‘the eliwood/elihec guy’ and on occasion The Ike Guy LOL but yeah…. Guilty as charged……

As for the games ive played ive played Shadow Dragon (DS remake), Shadows of Valentia, and then FE6-FE3H + FEW (minus Heroes of Light and Shadow)

im an asshole for playing on authentic software hence why i skipped out on FE1-FE5 but maybe one day ill stop being annoying and pick them up on an emulator. Or IntSYS remakes them <- doubtful (well. The rest of the JP-exclusive games anyway lol)

#snap chats #FE is like my DQ honestly LMAO i love the games so much #tho… cant say that nowadays… i havent played any of the new ones since FE3H #no particular reason aside from maybe not being too much of a fan of the art style #but i could just be a true geezer at heart and prefer the old pixel/portrait art of the 2000’s era #SoV’s portrait art is gorgeous tho. that games SOOOO good berkut’s still one of my fave antags to this day #oh but. in case you couldnt tell. FE7 was one of my faves to post for a while LMAO #it was the first game i got to play since my bro got it and let me play it #he also had sacred stones so i played that once i was done with FE7 #then i played brawl and fell in love with ike. as in Big Sword And He Punches/Kicks People #so….. i saved up to buy PoR and later Radiant Dawn (tho i got RD for. MUUUCH much cheaper) #and i mean i always thought marth was cute. And A Girl so when i was able to i got SD #not my favorite game ngl the cast was just. too huge and not memorable but i still love marth as a character #at some point i figured id try to play FE6 and bought a japanese copy (that i had ray chase sign actually) #the hit rate is fucking. ABYSMAL. and my JP was even worse than it is now BUT we got through it #the tellius games def have my fave cast and lore tho and i love the music. and Por do be on my baby the gamecube #and then i got awakening because my childhood bestie- who never played FE before- loved it a million so i figured why not #and then. My Insane Ass. she bought birthright and so of course i bought conquest #but then i heard about the removed features in the JP versions so i bought those and gave her my conquest copy #and then i paid her to homebrew my 3DS because I Am Stupid. so did i pay an obscene amount of money #to play Arguably the worst FE games Yes. but i got to use my ike amiibo so its ok :) #i love how i talk more bout fire emblem on my rgg blog than on my FE blog LMAO thats just how it be #but yeah those are my FE crimes thanks for listening LOL #i oughta cap it there i been talkin WAAAYYY too long LMAO

[apocalypticdemon]

man there's this one post that I can't track down but I gotta talk about it

it talks about how the op was singing in the kitchen and their roommate slid around the corner and was relieved that they were singing bc they don't do that then they're depressed, and that the kitchen had been silent for 3 months. thinkin about that post today

#mostly bc .... i just realized that people have had that same recognition for me. #i got horrifically depressed in college. my sophomore year. #and when i dont feel badly. i frequently wear flowers in my hair. theyre pretty and i like to match them. but that takes energy. #and i hadnt even noticed that id stopped #until one day i went 'hey. its been a while since ive done that. lets wear some pink flowers today' #and my piano teacher looked at me and said 'oh good. youre feeling better today. im so glad' #and whrn i went ???????? he said. 'you're wearing flowers again. you havent done that in a long time and youve been really down.' #'but your flowers are back! im happy for you' #and now whenever i see that post im like. oh. other people see me like the op's roommate does. my flowers came back.......

dentist san chapter was so. fire as usual god. i just want tomori to get so jealous and crazy for takuma that he spits up blood and gets a little insane and then immediately goes "what? no takumas feelings for me are completely unrequited" i know he will never reach that level in canon but i think about that one jealous tomori everyday they make me so crazy

#I LOVE HOW THEY NEVER STOP THIS GINTAMA HUMOR #MISCOMMUNICATION HUMOR AND PLOT EXCEPT FUCKING GOOD #i cant wait til takuma figures out tomori is a guy who loves to crossdress bc i think honestly at this point he will literally just go #'oh cool' and then everyone will have their gintama reactions like WTF WHY R U UNFAZED and takuma will go 'didnt you know? im gay.' and and #AUAGEHS I LOVE THIS SORT OF JAPANESE HUMOR ITS SO GOOD I NEVER SEE BL WITH THAT HUMOR TYPE SUWHEJS #okay im sorry. i havent done my instagram spam account tomori x takuma bible post in a while okay #bc fuck instagram i think maybe ill even just start posting the bible entries here these mfs have a gorilla grip on me
