Quickly put together a basic family tree of Stratos and Betrayus's family members/loved ones^^ (I was inspired by @ell-arts's family trees!)

#pmatga #my art #betrayus spheros #stratos spheros #pmatga ocs #I still don't have a last name for Rotunda/her side of the family in general #I just keep swapping between 'betrayers' and 'traitors' as a place-holders #because making a last name for characters who are named 'treasonus and treacherus'. which are literally just normal words. is hard! #also I think Pearl's rainbow-gradient-effect in her hair would be showing up in her headshot but w/e

YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS THATS RIGHT ITS ART SUMMARY TIME. OH YEEAAAH

tpn is definitely one of the longest fixations i've had in a very long time, these kids mean soo much to me and have helped me branch out with my art in really fun ways. i'm really happy with where my style is now, and heres to another year of drawing the same damn anime characters <3

2022 | 2021 | 2020

#skye's doodles #skye's ramblings #ive been using both tags for these im not quite sure why. but i do love to ramble on these #did NOT have enough space for all my favorite pieces choosing was soo hard for some months ... 2024 skye should space out his favs better #to be honest this year was. interesting !! my motivation became a little rocky towards the end #partially due to finally getting a diagnosis for something ive been struggling w forever + med trials and annoying side effects YAAY #but i am glad i have still been able to make art that i can be happy with despite all that and it honestly feels. a little more special? #idk if that really makes sense but yah. really happy with how my art has developed this year cant wait for next year <3 #also godd the way ray n don each take up half these spaces... anime boy disease is incurable i fear <3 #n yah i totally just grabbed this template from the one i made last year n changed the top doodle/year. i will probably keep doing this <3 #shoiuld i tag this as tpn? it is all tpn and ive seen other summaries in the tag today. much to think about

ai is just so fucking bleak man it makes me want to end it all...

taking everything joyful about life... everything i ever wanted or loved or hoped for... and not just that, everything else too... no job is safe... the only way i can go on is to pretend it doesnt exist and just keep creating and trying as we always have done it haha but meanwhile it just keeps getting worse and im filled with sickening dread... the only hope I have is that people will continue to stick together and protect each other even as ai tries to destroy and take everything from us and our identity and our joy sorry to sound poetic and pretentious but i just need to get the vent out. its bleak man.

#im being vague bc im embarrassed to specify more but it just... the future seems so bleak bc of ai #and... this is just one small thing #everything about the current world and the future looks bleak to me #the only way i can keep going on is if i pretend everything is fine and the same as how it was #but the fact that i can even manage to do that shows my immense privilege #vent #delete later #sidenote i havent been glazing or art shielding my art (i never tried glaze) #because i just... i give up man. like im in denial. i want to just pretend like i can post it like normal and itll be ok #i want to blindly trust #its the same w me posting my art and blindly trusting that ppl wont repost #except ai is much worse than reposting.... #ha... the only meager protection ive been doing #is watermarking but not even obtrusively #and posting at a lower res (but ive been posting higher res on here...) #hhaaa... i want ppl to be able to see my hard work and tbe colors #and artshield makes tbe colors ugly #cries #unrelated but i feel like ive been estranged from my friends lately too #so thats prob also contributing to why i feel so sad #im too old to be having a tantrum like this but isnt this what blogs like tumblr r for? so i can vent here instead of irl... ha ha

HIII MAC N CHEESE goob evening... just finished e06 which Means first thing tomorrow Party City Time Babeyyyy!!! cant wait 2 see what yr ominous comments r about. (also genuinely favorite part of this ep is tides :D :( :( emoji texting. fwiw. hes everything 2 me...) anyway i DID actually have a question!! im sure there r character sheets & official art & such but i rlyyyyy dont wanna check the wiki or patreon art files n get spoiled bc i Know i would..... do u. Have any like season 1 art or descriptions or such? are there any?? bc i would like to Draw The Them... but i love not knowing shit about whats gonna happen.... pleading emoji two fingers touching emoji...

TIIIIIIDE TIDE TIDE TIDE MY BELOVED. HE IS EVERYTHING TO MEEEEEE i fucking love him so much. worlds best mom etc. the party is. well. its something. smile. nothing ominous here idk what youre talking about !!!!!!

OH FUCK YES ART I GOTCHU. definitely dont look up any pics because the wiki is awful and disorganized and sooo full of spoilers. here u go i have compileddddd a small collection of season 1 art !!!!! also tide bc although this art wasnt posted until later i feel as though it is so important for u to see him bc i love him so much. and also his design doesnt change much. oh yeah and le frog is here (for funsies bc his design is so silly)

i cannot remember if youve met any of the prime force yet but you will soon so heres ms. g and silhouette also!!!!

#worth noting here that their designs change SO MUCH throughout the series its awesome i love dynamic plot relevant character design #they look like little babies to me here..... they dont even have costumes yet they just go out fighting crime in their Normal Ass Clothes #secret identity WHO #ALSO FUN FACT ABOUT THE PRIME FORCE. idk if u knew this. before they started pd and also riptide they did a couple oneshots #that would become prequels to the current campaigns. so in the pd prequel they played the prime force's origin story !!! #grizzly was silhouette and charlie was ms g !! #so whenever the prime force comes up and grizzly/charlie do the voice for their respective character thats why. #i was so confused abt that at first . #YAYYYY I LOVE OFFICIAL ART <3 #i cant wait to be able to send u some of the other art god damn it goes so hard. i will keep u updated w that as u go i promise . #asks #friends!!! #intertexts

i’m too busy to properly script, voice, and edit a video essay on tron’s forgotten/disrespected origins and art direction which are the defining reasons it’s good, along with how kingdom hearts is better at working with 1982 than tron’s own movie “sequel” atm, but does anyone want a tldr on my thoughts

#text #ALSO both kh and 1982 being very sincere and defied constrictive corporate standards and slapped super hard + Changed Media forever #kh is still going strong while tron keeps having an identity crisis and diff people mucking it up on Assumptions of how it ‘should’ go #while. ignoring the original art direction writing and themes unlike kh Knowing and Sticking w its original intent and art direction #anyway i’m still kind of losing it in arizona toiling away on short film w a laptop rn

struggling to get any of this right but i dont. hate it so far

#.img #i keep changing stuff i also dont know or understand furry proportions #i have 5 tutorials up. nothing is helping #ive looked at so many dog pics they arent a real animal anymore #also oughg digital art is hard im such a traditional boy but i dunno where any good pencils are rn #i just need to get a solid design down and then i can go wild w the poses #but i need the design first

i feel a feeling that is genuinely intolerable and go "okay what do i do with this"

therapist brain says "feel ur feelings, its unhealthy to suppress all the time." rational brain says, "hi if we sit with this emotion then we are going to either be bleeding or dead in approximately ten minutes. so whats another option." therapist brain goes "wellll i guess in that case maybe u can distract urself idk, that can be a coping strategy sometimes." rational brain glances at emotion, shakes its head and shoots back "yeahhhh no can do there bud. this one's a real whopper and distractions ain't gonna cut it this time."

both sections of the brain shrug at each other and then The Disorder brain raises its hand smugly and simpers out "hiiii remember me? yeah this is the reason i exist teehee :) give me five minutes and I'll have an amnesia wall erected and another part of the brain shoved into the forefront and then we'll be right as rain! and this emotion can go rot in the locked cabinet of horrors until another part accidentally stumbles upon it again in the future or until the lock breaks. :)"

#girl help I've just been drawing and then BOOM. unbearable feelings drowning me !!!! drownding !!! i am drowndinging !!! #i dont wanna do this anymoreeeee im so tired of this #i go ''wow this sure is intolerable! how have i ever dealt w this!'' and then the DID does its thing some more👍 #''gee that sounds so helpful!'' my body is in shambles from the overwhelming amounts of undealt with trauma :] #there are many other downsides but . i ain't getting into all that dhfjdldl #im just . grrrrr. maybe its bc i was drawing another part of the brain but c'mon 😭 i was drawing them HAPPY !! playing!! having fun!! #trying to make smth nice for us !!!! god damn this is so ridiculous #i want to go to bed fjfkdl im so tired and frustrated w everything man im trying so hard and it all seems to go towards nothing #im just not doing well idk also this counselor i have has been so flaky and its making me feel so ... eeurgghh #i understand they dont think im a suicide risk so im low on the priority list but I'd like to just... be a priority for somebody just once #boohoo poor me etc etc. other ppl need the help more than i do i know. im just. tired. #there isnt rly a lot anybody can do anyways to help i guess #still makes me insane thinking abt how the social worker had nothing for me except ''well ... u could go to the homeless shelter'' #im just... theres so many fucked up things abt that. sigh. oh well oh well oh well. #just keep making my shitty art and trudging thru the days and finding good things in a day when i can scrape em together !!!! #argh. sigh.

#IM JUST POSTING HIM RANDOMLY BECAUSE I CANNOOOOOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME DRAW ANYONE ELSE. I HAVE APHANTASIA MAN IT'S HARD OUT HERE #i just started season 3 and heard him mention the graying hair i was like hm.. what if i tried drawring some characters. #i'm actually super happy with how he looks... i had some prior inspiration bc i followed one artist who's posted fanart b4-- #(which is how i first heard of the series) and so i already kinda had a picture of him in my head bc of that (i love their art sdfghgfdjh) #so i was jus sketchin and i was like.... yeah this looks ok. i wanted his hair to be kinda just pokin up every which way in front-- #--because i imagine him constantly running a hand through it. otherwise it'd look nice n tidy. i just sketched til it looked good enough #the eyes were easy because i wanted sharp and tired. the color was just me testin shit out and being like oooo that looks pretty #the outfit..... i just googled some like business casual stuff LOL. i thought it looked nice #bag and flashlight because he's dungeon crawling #he's also filipino for no reason other than i said so #OHHH YEAH freckles. freckles are cute. also worm scars. #i gotta say i didn't wanna put glasses on him but i thought he looked nakey without em.. but also it might be bc i was strugglin w lineart #the glasses make him look younger i think. which is bad!! he needs to look at least 35!!! #i dunno if i have it in me to draw the others;;;;;;;;;; martin i can't figure out a color scheme for-- and tim & sasha.... waauugghhh.... #it's hhhhaaardd because when i'm like reading anything i cannot *picture* characters.... i just get like..... a feeling yknow..... #again i already had some vague images for jon (and martin) bc i saw fanart before lol so that's what showed up in my head #i have a good *feeling* of what sasha should look like but i cannot for the life of me draw it.... #i keep sketching and going “noo this doesn't look like her” <- i DON'T know what she looks like #i've somehow instead ended up with a sketch that really feels like melanie tho lmao #if you're somehow at the bottom of this long ramble i will send you $500. #the void given form

I still have it out for Gustav not gonna lie, but my number one solution to anything ever is to just get silly about it! 🥰🥰🥰

#fire emblem #fire emblem heroes #feh #bet you thought i wasn't gonna finish it huh!!!! bet you thought my wips were empty promises HUH!!!!!!!!!! #i'm just. a slow worker LMFAO not to mention it's hard to juggle multiple intense fixations at once tbh #it was fun to work in greyscale too! i feel like i gotta just. just keep trying new things or i'll explode #anyways not to brag but i think these are the most alfonse alfonses i've drawn like ever. guy of all time #i'm esp really proud of the second and last panels!!!!!! #i hope to keep up a good pace w the other parts but you know. i feel like since experiencing the worst burnout of my life #i've just never been the same. i tend to draw slower/for shorter periods of time. it's really sad and frustrating. #i have like so many fucking wips ESP w the askr fam i am so autistic about them LMFAOOOO #only a fraction of things tend to see the light of day though 🥲🥲🥲 rest are in purgatory LMFAO #IT'S FINE THOUGH I AM.
