Shop Local Part I - 48 Business Signs

Hi everyone! I apologize that I've basically been AWOL this week, and also that this project has taken so long, but I finally have some business signs to share! Swatches, (lots of) info and download below!

@gold33 requested some business signs a couple of weeks ago, and it's something I've been wanting to do for awhile anyway, so I was happy to pick up the project. @basic-fictional-simmer made an additional request when I posted my WIP for these, so those are included as well! I also added in some designs I wanted for myself, which is partly why this took so long -- I kept getting new ideas while I was working.

Here's a breakdown of everything you get (business name | tagline/additional info):

What I have not finished yet are the "service" signs -- police, hospitals, banks, etc -- because I have some different meshes in mind for those (I love this mesh but it's definitely got a strip mall/shopping plaza kind of feel, and that seems a little sketchy for a hospital lol). They will be coming in part two!

These are on MogHughson's Illuminated Shop Sign mesh, which is BG compatible and is not included. You will need to pick up the mesh from the above link (I'll also link it near the download below). It is six tiles wide, but in case you want something smaller, I'm also working on a hanging sign add-on. Here's a peek:

Probably should have zoomed in, but I wanted to show how it looks with the big sign, and then I got distracted by my little courtyard. XD

Icons are by Freepik, piksart, Luvdat, NT Sookruay, Vitaly Gorbachev, JunGSa, Smashicons, surang, justicon, ultimatearm, paulalee, iconriver, YI-PIN, smalllikeart, smashingstocks, Agung Rama, Futeur and monkik. Huge thanks for all their fabulous resources!

Numbered versions of the swatches are included so you can keep just what you like.

Whew! Okay! I'm going to work on the last set of hobby posters tonight, although I'm not sure if I'll have them done in time for tomorrow. D;

DOWNLOAD (SFS) | Recolors are ~1 MB! 🚨 Mesh is not included! Get it -> here. 🚨

Lots of love, Spacey

[bagilgulhaze]

My biggest secret is I don't even like japanese food that much as food and not as a hobby... like I like it, the way I like almost every kind of well prapred cuisine, even ashkenazi lol. I enjoy all sorts of food and some Japanese foods I'm really fond of (I'm a sucker for natto). But it's just not my cup of tea, like i don't think i experience as great a joy as when i eat proper japnese food but flavor wise? Not compareable to like how i drool at some other cuisines. I'm Middle Eastern, if not for my weird Japanese food hobby I don't see a way in which I'd have ever preferred it over most chinese, thai or Korean, even more so Indian, defiantly not over Mexican (which I know less about, so from approx.) And of course wayyy after my home cuisines. Even italian since it's mediterranean❣️ I'd say a good japanese meal is on par with a good French meal, not my palate, but it can be very, very good and enjoyable.

Like I can't help but remember every time I'm proud of making a fully authentic and precise japanese meal as i sit down to eat it that japanese saying about how the West got the smell (included india as west, so spices) china has the flavor and japan the aesthetics... like yeah...

#not inc. chuka & yoshoku ig but also kinda compared to their home versions often #and trust me i really appriciate it for what it is i really go crazy for japanese food and jts beauty and techniques and food #everyone that knows me knows that like id eat japanese food sometimes like all day everyday for months lol #im really passionate about it but its just a crazy hobby like i need my MENA spices and tomatoes and lemon pleaseeee

Norwegian Bokmål for Total Beginners (January 2024 Crash Course)

25. Nordic Countries

Welcome to day 25! We're doing pretty well here, huh? :D Today we're learning the names for the nordic countries!

land (n) - country

Norden - the north (specifically the nordics)

Norge - Norway

Danmark - Denmark

Sverige - Sweden

Finland - Finland

Island - Iceland

Færøyene - The Faroe Islands

Bonus

språk (n) - language

nasjonalitet (m) - nationality

Grammar: Language & Nationality

Unlike English where we can change the word of the country in any number of ways to get the language/nationality (France -> French, Germany -> German, Norway -> Norwegian, Sweden -> Swedish, China -> Chinese etc), it's pretty easy in Norwegian: it'll always end in -sk:

Norge -> norsk (Norwegian)

Sverige -> svensk (Swedish)

Danmark -> dansk (Danish)

Finland -> finsk (Finnish)

Island -> islandsk (Icelandic)

Færøyene -> færøysk (Faroese)

This pertains to both the language and the nationality:

Han er norsk. Han snakker norsk. (He's Norwegian. He speaks Norwegian)

Vi er finske. Vi snakker finsk og svensk. (We're Finnish. We speak Finnish and Swedish)

Den islandske mannen snakker islandsk og dansk. (The Icelandic man speaks Icelandic and Danish)

Er dere færøysk? Snakker dere færøysk? (Are you Faroese? Do you speak Faroese?)

Note: all countries are capitalised just like in English, but languages and nationalities aren't.

Your turn!

Here's a list of countries in alphabetical order. Find your country and tell me what languages you speak! If your country or language isn't there, you're welcome to look it up, reblog and add it (there's like 200 countries and over 7000 languages in the world so I'm not gonna list them all, sorry. I chose the countries I did because I have or have had followers of those nationalities)

I'll go first!

Jeg kommer fra Storbritannia. Jeg er britisk. Jeg bor i Japan. Jeg snakker engelsk og norsk, og jeg lærer meg japansk. (I come from the UK. I am British. I live in Japan. I speak English and Norwegian, and I'm learning Japanese)

Meet the Writer Tag Game

I’ve been tagged by both @emeraldhazeart​ and @durotoswrites​! 🥰

Rules: Use this picrew to make yourself and answer the questions!

Three fun facts about me:

I’m a violinist and have been playing for most of my life. I used to dream of being a solo performer, but have found much more joy lately in playing in symphonies and quartets. (I still prefer to play first violin, though. 😉)

People are so fascinating to me. I love figuring out what makes people tick, their personalities, how they speak, their cultures, their life stories, their mannerisms, how they react to certain situations, why they do/act/say the things they do/act/say, etc.... I seriously can’t get enough of it. I like to take all these things into consideration when I write, too, which is why I focus most of my effort on character dialogue and personality in my stories and my game.

One of my other hobbies that I don’t talk about a lot here is weightlifting! I always like to say that if you told 20-year-old me I’d love weightlifting and strength training, I would have laughed at you until I was gasping for air. I’ll never be the strongest person in the world, but it makes me feel powerful and comfortable in my skin.

Favourite season: For the longest time, my favorite season was summer. I typically handle hot weather much better than cold weather, and the additional sunlight always puts me in a great mood. But it’s become so damn hot these days that it’s slowly shifted over into autumn. Plus, nothing beats the crisp autumn air and the beautiful colors. 😊

Continent where I live: North America.

How I spend my time: Most of my time is spent in front of a computer screen at work. Actually, that doesn’t just include work lmao -- it includes school, writing, and working on my game too. Unfortunately, because of how busy I am these days, I haven’t been able to dedicate much of my time to the latter two hobbies... but I don’t want to let my hectic life take those away from me entirely.

Are you published?: Nah. Maybe someday, but as of now, I write solely for fun.

Introvert or Extrovert: Shy introvert, to the extreme. It’s honestly a wonder I have any friends 🥰

Favourite Meal: I live for Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, Indian, Thai, and Mexican food and there are very few things from those cuisines that I will NOT eat. Having said that, the one food I have honestly never gotten tired of eating is sushi. 

No pressure tags: If you see this, I tag you! I mean it when I say I genuinely want to read everyone’s answers.

Can you reveal the ethnicities of your Smurfs humanizations humans?

Sure, I can answer this one without drawing anything so I can do it today XD Disclaimer, because I don't 100% know what I'm talking about all of the time so bare with me here. I may have to just state country of origin for some of them, and tbh for some characters I just don't know! I threw a colour pallet together and went 'yeah this looks good :)' so I'll mention that where prompted lmao.

I draw a lot of characters so I'll try to be fairly concise XD I generally associate the characters to their (mostly 80's) accents, and less the 'Belgian' nationality, so that's a start.

But again since race =/= nationality you get characters like Papa, Smurfette, Vanity, Farmer, Dreamy, Handy & Clumsy etc who are white Americans, Tracker and Marco who are white Englishmen, Gutsy is a white Scottish man, Painter is a white frenchman etc tbh there's a fair few so I won't be too specific here.

Hefty, Tuffy, Grouchy, SmurfTulip, SmurfBegonia, Pushover & Weakling are all black Americans, and when I did the Smurf Gals I was able to be a little more focused on SmurfWillow and Blossom cause fun with flags. Willow is from Guadeloupe and Blossom is from Ghana.

SmurfStorm is Filipino but probably w/ mixed roots, which funfact actually came more from a humanisation of a character from another franchise I saw another artist do, their version of this character gave me Stormy vibes and it gave me a good direction to go in with her design! :)

To finish off the grove girls, I have SmurfLily is Chinese, SmurfMelody is Japanese, SmurfHoney and my oc SmurfGadget are Mexican, and coming back to SmurfMint as white presumably* American.

*She doesn't have a voice rn

For misc villagers, Tailor is an Ashkenazi Jewish man, but I'm not super familiar with the more specific details of that, I can say his physical design was inspired by real life celebrities of the same background. The same applies to his cousins Spinner and Weaver. Brainy tbh I don't even know myself XD The first time I ever drew him he looked kind of Korean, but as of his new redesign ... eh heck if I know. Brainy's vibing, that's what. Don and Chef are Italian, Poet is White-presumably some country of the Caribbean mixed but I haven't decided anything specific.

For the Smurflings we got uhh, Sassette is white American, Snappy is African American, Nat is native American and Slouchy is Thai.

And on the misc oc's side of things just to wrap em up we got Elena who's Spanish and Butcher who's South Korean. Luddite my next gen is Indian, so I suppose that makes Passive-Aggressive and Clueless both Indian as well, Dopey too cause he's Clueless' brother so three more for the pile. And obviously most next gen will take after their parents with the exception being Quixotic who's adopted and Brazilian, and Nova who is an alien so doesn't really count since they're not even technically humanised even in the humanised AU XD

#smurfs #I tried to be fairly like #detailed but tbh half the time im drawing humanisations its just me going heehoo hoomans #so this got me to stop and think lmao #the smurfs

The "Eden of Dreams" has rebranded!

Changes to it are listed as such:

Its now renamed to Welcome to Dreamland! Most likely a change to the name

WtD now has 11 Characters:

Yaroslav Ruskaev-Russian (They/Xe)

Noah Starstream-Filipino(He/him)

Timothy Chaidee-Thai (He/him)

Giselle-British (She/They)

Varsha-Indian (She/Him)

Akira Furokawa-Japanese (They/He)

The characters listed are the Dream Saviours, they're specialize in Capturing the nightmare spirits cause by the evil, Each Character has each roles

Some of the designs will be revealed + Sophie and Akira's might be kept the same

It most likely wont be connected to octonauts but will be inspired from them, by characters' species and plot.

Adding smth about Yaro's race being Russian: Ik it might be a Controversial one but I dont Believe that all Russians are against Ukrainian People, I Believe some of them didnt want their country to start another war. Because of that, Yaroslav didnt ask for War, Xe asked for the world would come in Peace with each other. Thats why they wanted to be leader so no one could get affected by the Nightmares. Thats all I wanna say before The comments start riot(1/2)

I do wanna mention that I do not support Russia as I dont condone with Politics and I dont want one of my ocs being associated with real life Disasters (2/2)

Theme:

Pastels, Stars, Glowing Bubbles and Feathers

Roles:

Soon be edited
