#it seems well designed

Text

My sister picked up Pokemon Shield a while ago. Went ahead and bought it, no intent to return it, so I decided to swallow my pride and play it after swearing it off.

I don’t… Hate it.

I still have problems with it. I can still tell it’s underbaked, underloved, that the higher ups pushed for speed over creativity, polishing, quality, etc. and however else you might say that same idea; it’s just underproduced.

But I don’t hate it.

It’s got problems. I’d argue it’s the worst Pokemon game, in my humble opinion, but it’s not, like, unenjoyable. Or wrong to love it.

So. I was being a big, rude dummy over this, and I was wrong. And I’m sorry.

#gale chatter #anyhow I'm coming to terms with the fact that 1 i am an ass and 2 i need to change that #my brain doesn't stop critiquing in private and i always open my mouth and spoil things for folks because i dissaprove #but nobody else seems to mind when something is flawed or straight up evil & that drives me batty so i gotta ruin it #and only now. am i realizing that that makes me a fun leech and unbearable. h #well it's like i say. you're gonna learn things even when you're old and grey.#uh this post is too positive a note imma complain about less vague stuff #main points are: gender :( underproduced and buy the dlc :(#also let me be fat nintendo #either let me like make a character that looks like me or stop asking what i look like and go back to set player models #lot of old pokemon problems and person gripes and policies I don't like #but I'm having fun and i think I'm like. done being a big ol' scrooge. hopefully.#anyhow i drew like 3 pkmn comics and designed a sona and team and 2 o' the comics are for Galar specifically #but none of you get to see #also i choose the sad lizard. refuse to let him evolve.#make no bones about it imma push for a better game next time but eh ppl are gonna buy the game no matter what i say #so whateva! love your games! it's honestly not my job to police others' happiness and i need to learn to mind my buisness!

I think the best way I can describe what I think Jeje’s face looks like is just “Vincent Valentine”.

#OH MY GOD WAIT #okay no. i think it might be a bit of a stretch to say jeje is inspirer by vincent.#but looking at jeje's original chapter 1 design... perhaps it does remind me of vincent's look when he was in the turks...#either way. theres lots of similarities but i dont think vincent was TRULY any from of inspiration for jeje #but theres so much. the long hair. THE GUNS. vince has a cape that could be considered similar to jeje dress thing.#and yes i call it a dress. jeje wears a dress. idc what it actually is.#anyway. black hair ane red eyes and vincent has vampire vibes and jeje IS a vampire. quiet. stoic. pretty emotionless #vince was in the basement in a coffin and jeje was in the cellar. vince feels responsible for luci's death #im sure jeje feels some responsibility for what happened to mikuni and misono's mothers #OKAY. theres actually A LOT here #and this one is definitely a bit of a stretch #but i see a similarity in the fact that jeje and lily are implied to be close and vincent and cid seem to get friendly with each other #and lily and cid are blondes and lily's nice and pretty cheerful and cid is loud and they seem like they clash #with the quieter two but they actually dont!#well lily and jeje were forced to almost clash once but that doesnt count #servamp

Where do people usually get circular tattoos?

#I’m thinking of getting the water element sign for atla with the ocean and moon koi around it #but idk where circles go well #there’s not lots of circles on the body #maybe on the tumby or back #cause I don’t want any more visible ones until I have a stable job someday #middle back? my stepmom has one there but idk anything on the spine seems uncomfy #lower back actually has same issue cause I’m boney #so I guess on the tumby like above the hip below the ribs?#that sounds cool #I should do a design and like photoshop it onto a picture of my tumby lol #I’m not getting one until after my surgery recovery probably but I wannnnnnt oneeeeeeee

#I haven't seen anything like this before..............I'm going insane looking at his stuff #we had this conversation w our teacher today abt customers that aren't really aware of what we are doing exactly....that this is handmade.#and that's possibly bc of the broad variety that the internet offers and the huge supply of custom jewelry #and then he recommended us to look at this guy's work. srsly if I didn't know any better I wouldn't believe this to be handmade as well #this is so out of this world and yet it isn't!#things that inspire you and make you want to quit at the same time #becoming a designer for jewelry seems so far away all of a sudden but you just have to make it your own you know? be unapologetic abt it #phew okay. anyway. these!#a

Bro look at how small Tinsel is

#i wished she was in the movie more #she has such a cute design #in all seriousness i thought she was gonna be more important to the plot since the whole dead dad thing seems to be juicy material for an #arc #like tinsel could've quit being a mechanic because she felt guilty for what happened to santa and everyone's like nooooo don't do that D:#she's like fine and instead decides to help the Miser brothers since they don't know one thing about christmas #shenanigans happen she bonds with the miser brothers about their mutual guilt over what happened to santa #she makes them realize their rivalry is kinda dumb and they encourage her to keep pursuing mechanics cause from what they can tell shes #pretty good at it #the climax kinda goes in the same direction where tinsel realizes that someone intentionally sabotaged the plane and tells the bros that #what happened wasnt any of their fault so they work together to save santa #tinsel gets congratulated on saving santa but shes like well i couldn't have done it without the miser brothers #'you may have never been on the nice but i think you guys are nice' they hug and all that sappy shit #and shit i think i just turned this into found family shiiiiiiiiiii #fuck it tinsel gets two elemental dads #its what she deserves #a miser brothers christmas #miser brothers #tinsel #snow miser #heat miser #scarlet rambles

all time low? in MY spotify recommendations???

#me: finally caves and switches to spotify bc pandemic #me: listens exclusively to sea shanties and the garages for eight months #spotify: hm. you seem like you perhaps attended warped tour in the years 2007-2012.#throwback to when this was an ATL fanblog. my legacy my design time is a flat circle.#remember when they put out a documentary about touring and i watched it EVERY NIGHT FOR A YEAR #SOMETIMES MULTIPLE TIMES #anyway very clear that i am a well adjusted neurotypical person and always have been /s #if you too think dirty work was a great album despite the band's decision to join a major label for exactly one (1) album and touring season #you may be entitled to compensation*#*me coming to yell in your inbox #honestly will anything beat the summer nothing personal came out? yelling 'you were fake i was great nothing personal' at the top of your #lungs in a mosh pit is something that can be so personal #ANYWAYYYYYY #personal #i swear to god i could still sing the entire discography of this band up through 2012 if you asked me this was my emotional support band

find it kind of incredible how good zim is with like. tech stuff. inventing. fixing. usage. like dude. think it’s p easy to look over considering the focus on his failures and lack of typical social awareness but man he does LOTS of tech related stuff p dang competently

#invader zim #invader zim analysis #nomakuanalysis #nomakuposts #i dunno folks just got iz on the brain a bit rn and i recalled this being a thought i had #regrettably my brain aint coming up with particularly specific examples but #uhh the baloney mutation thing? reprogramming gir to try and get him to be more dutiful? being able to fly a ship?#though admittedly maybe not SUPER well as he did note that Tak was flying somethin like 'even worse than him' but he doesn't seem super bad?#he also designed his house's security system p much himself right #lawn gnomes....#the godzilla hamster mutation thingy #idk it just doesn't seem like tech incompetence has ever been a thing with zim

started watchin invader zim (yes. in 2021) and my investment is hinging on one (1) character’s continued existence.

first doodle set is from memory and the second i pulled up some refs for. added some dialogue to em after for funsies

#invader zim #zim #nomakuart #nomakuposts #fully aware i'm late to the party but i thought i'd give it a shot as i hear it's been p popular in the past and it seemed interestin enough #and zim being neato #behold: now i think zim is certainly neat and man. he sure is a character huh #oh yeah also checking out tumblr's year of review 2020 and seeing invader zim being at freaking number 6 #despite it being. well. kinda old and the most recent event i know of was the 2019 movie so ???#anyway YEAH these are my first doodles of iz this is all just me rollin along trying to get a feel for a design #still workin on it but man #FASCINATING little green man. like realistically you shouldn't care about him but here i am #can't quite put it into words but really even though zim seems to do literally nothing 'good' the show still does a good job of makin him uh #what term am i looking for.#a sympathetic villain?#anyhoo i'm sitting partway through last ep of s1 rn for what it's worth #kinda doubt my interest will stick around too long after i've wrapped up watchin all the stuff but eh

this doesn’t seem like it should be a hard decision but it really is

#echo spambles #I'm contemplating changing a character's design #the only issue is that it's a character I've had since I was *12*#She's my oldest original character I've had her for almost seven years #Probably more than that to be honest sixth grade is just the first written proof I have of her existing #and there's details about her designs that have stayed the same since her conception #her hair her eyes her outfit none of it has changed #but now I'm contemplating sealing a plot hole by changing a small detail of her design- her eye colour #and this doesn't seem like it should be a hard decision but #she's had the same green eyes for *seven years* and changing that feels almost painful #like I'm tearing away a part of her essence #I'm scared that if I change too much of her the final result won't be true to her origins at all #and I don't want to stray too far from that because she's my fucking origin story #she's the start of my passions the reason i write the core of nearly EVERYTHING I've created #and I'm scared to change her too much because if I do that my brain will see her as an entirely different person #my brain is terrible with character designs so if I change a name or enough details it sees it as a whole new character #I once tried to change only her name and ended up with a separate character entirely like my brain just can't change things too much #and i don't want to risk ruining this wonderful dynamic character i've created #she's the most dynamic most well rounded character I have and I don't want to throw that away #man this whole ramble about just an eye colour change. but really this is how it feels to me #changing green to gold is so hard i'm having a midlife crisis over it #ugh i'm gonna go build my minecraft barn while i think about this

Decided to do fanart of this Yoosung look bc… It’s not my fave. Hm. Not a fan at all… but god damn, I love Yoosung so much, so got no choice but to stay by his side 😔❤️

#i don't mind short hair and big eyes but idk-- for ME something seems kinda off???#i can't put my tongue on what it is-- maybe it's the eyes... i mean tbh yoosung's official eyes always looked a bit off for me #but still love the boy so #yes no matter WHAT version I will ALWAYS include earrings on him!!!#anyway... well i mean this was fun to reimagine this design in my style LOL #Made him beefier than i intended...#killamonart #mystic messenger #mysme #mm #yoosung #yoosung kim #art #fanart #digital art #artists on tumblr

a simply sketched sakura squatting and pointing with a big open mouthed smile on her face

hehehehe sakura doodles,

#sakura haruno #my art #naruto #I WAS LOOKING BACK AT THE EARLY MANGA DRAWINGS FOR REASONS #and shes SO CUTE and SO CHEEKY i love her. daughter #also nobody would dare tell me that sakura who was taught by chaos and mischief masters kakashi and tsunade #doesnt still enjoy a little mischief every once and a while #the inked drawing where shes in the cap is the costume design for a witch hat atelier au #unfortunately it seems like the teacher at the atelier designs the outfit and kakashi. well. fashion design isnt his strong suit rip #so they all dress in navy and white and have the henohenomoheji face on their capes #can u imagine. ino would never let her live it down rip #to be fair to kakashi he never assumed hed have students so he didnt take it upon himself to design an outfit until it was too late #they have little bells on all their hats too except kakashi who traded his hat ornament with gai sensei (gai shishou in this?)#image desc in alt text
