this manatee looks like it’s in a skyrim loading screen

#misc #I encourage anyone dyslexic to try rotating him in your mind. I can’t do that; which is why I’m asking you to. #also: a bunch of tags are surprised this isn’t ‘shopped #it’s the lighting. backlit by the sun (which is diffused through the water) but also forelit artificially #the artificial light - a flash pack or something - casts a hard shadow under the creatures arm #which normally wouldn’t be possible if backlit by the SUN; you’d see a less-hard/more-fragmented shadow above water #as light sources ‘compete’ in a sense - and since there aren’t any light sources which can outshine the literal sun #it looks a bit weird when the darkest shadow is being cast from any other origin point - which is what’s essentially happening here #I don’t know the mechanics of how light travels through water; but I know the effect is substantial even with relatively short distances #also: it’s been balanced and color corrected by the author of the photo - who made deliberate choices to bring out the full potential #so it’s not like it’s a fresh and untouched export #but the kind of ‘tacked on’ appearance of the creature is a result of the lighting conditions within the image

"chilchuck isn't a twink, he's a DILF!" now i get why you're saying that but i feel like you've maybe forgotten what chilchuck tims canonically looks like

i'm sorry but this man is a twink. also DILF isn't a body type it's a status (and technically, an opinion) so he can be both

"but he's middle-aged!" look at him. look with your eyeballs. his age has nothing to do with the fact that he Looks Like That. he's a twink. the sooner you accept this the less angry his fandom will make you

edit bc this post has become the bane of my existence:

FAQ

Q: wtf do you mean he's a dad? he looks like a kid. A: he is 29 years old, and a half-foot. half-foots are dungeon meshi's halflings, or hobbits, or whatever you want to call them.

Q: wait, if he's 29, why the fuck are you calling him middle-aged? A: half-foots have an average lifespan of 50 years. chilchuck was originally drawn with grey hairs (you can see that in the manga fullbody) but the mangaka gave up on that over time. he's middle-aged for his race.

Q: hey, doesn't that look like a little angry face on his boot in the manga drawing? A: yea kinda

#as a proud member of the chilfucker fandom i think we should all accept his canon appearance even if we draw him way different #if you can only love him if he looks like a hobbit do you really love him at all? #by all means draw and think of him however sparks joy for you. but this is who he is in the manga and anime and you need to accept that #i love all chilchucks but i just love him in general. ideal man #chilchuck tims #tox.txt #edits made because the tags on this post are my villain origin story #i have now muted notifs!

and here's your annual reminder that jack-o'-lanterns were a tradition irish immigrants brought to the u.s., where (widely available) pumpkins fell into use over turnips & other root vegetables

(personally i regret this switch, as it means many of us missed the opportunity to grow up seasonally surrounded by friendly faces like these:

)

#babygirl help i've fallen back into my annual nostalgia for petrified turnip jack'o-lanterns #halloween #i should mention one of the types of root vegetables commonly used for the original jack'o-lanterns was the Mangel Wurzel #a type of extremely aggressive beet #i don't mean it was invasive or anything. i just mean that based on appearance alone it was an Absolute Fucker

opla inspired!

#one piece #opla #opfanart #nami #monkey d. luffy #roronoa zoro #as the central guys in this little collage... and in the la! i said some of my thoughts in the previous op art tags #the la was suuuper fun and silly... i have my reservations about it but i like that it exists and its clear the crew behind it had #a lot of fun building the world + dynamic between the crew alongside koby. also iv never seen so much one piece in my space!!! im happy #this alongside the new op & ed of recent one piece anime & the manga picking up hype with luffy eughgsnkd (explodes) #anyway the mihawk appearance in opla was crazy. so was the bogard focus - he had more screentime in opla than all of the original animanga #every time he showed up i thought of the man in the yellow hat... #ruporas art

Tor belongs to @littleulvar

#original character #arne #tor #merfolk au #krowy morskie #tor is such a majestic fish #that arne can't handle #and he can spend whole day at the coast watching the sea and hoping tor will appear #and no matter what time is it arne is always hypnotized by tor's scales and how they change its colors depends on light

Bonus 9: So that's where the turtle came from!

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #bonus comic #tulu xuanwu #lan sizhui #Thank you Stackedbirds for the inspiration behind this comic! #The original plan was that they would kill the turtle - only for it to be revealed there was little baby turtles she was protecting #and those turtles left the cave to then be chilling in a river by yi-city 20 years later. #This version has less turtle death and is way more straightforward. #But yes; A-Qing's turtle was always supposed to be linked to the tulu xuanwu. I enjoy call-backs and set-ups immensely. #What other creatures does LSZ have in his sleeve pockets? What other endangered beasts have been accidently translocated? #Will the turtle ever make an appearance again? So many questions. Which I will now answer: #1) At least one rabbit and a few songbirds have made a permanent home in there. #2) I like to think all the cultivators leaving baoshan sanren's mountain are accidently translocated endangered creatures. #3) Yes. The tulu xuanwu will be pivotal presence in the climax of the story. Dare I say - the hero of the darkest hour.

d’amor

#trainofthought #einstellung #original character #I miss drawing her shes so cool. So i redesigned her #Story context? Ah she just kind appeared and she thinks shes allowed to kill people because she had a mark on her forehead #*has. Arghh

[atthebell]

sneeg has also talked himself before about being uncomfortable with people drawing him really skinny/tiny so i hope people try to draw him accurately as well ^^^

#bell.txt #also help i never realized op was neon #imo i also wish people wouldn't draw him like his origins character all the time #yes its cute. its only his appearance on that one server. why do you keep drawing him tiny for everything else

[arielluva]

screenshot redraw! though i took creative liberty in making it rain here even though it isnt (yet) in the screenshot bc i thought it'd be cool (i also enjoy drawing water droplets)

there are two versions of the drawing here, the first one is edited for mobile to get it to look closer to my intended colors, while the second one is the original from my computer. the third image here being the original screenshot, lol

#my art #revolutionary girl utena #rgu #juri arisugawa #hate how different the computer vs mobile colors are... the original looks so dark on my phone </3 #my computer always displays colors lighter than they appear so unfortunately a lot of my drawings look darker than intended on mobile #sometimes the difference isnt too bad but this time it was. pretty obvious #hence two versions of the drawing #anyway im very happy with how this turned out #the original screenshot just stuck with me and. im not sure what it is about it that i like so much #but i just really wanted to draw it #still got two other rgu related drawings to finish but at least i got one done #anyways its 3 am... time for me to depart to eepytown #2023

studies from the finale

#nicholas d wolfwood #meryl stryfe #trigun #trigun stampede #honestly the grand highlight. #anyway i think i ... drained all my thoughts of ep12 on saturday. i was like... all day drawing stuff for that episode and then circling #those thoughts but mainly #im just excited for season 2. im so so excited for s2. AND IM EXCITED FOR.. all of the steady appearance of trimax stuff again #like when they recited quote to quote of vash and knives conversation when they were on their way up to space #the i'll keep running and after 150 years this is what you have to say godddddd #GODDDDDD i felt so much in that moment. GODDDDDDD #IM REALLY EXCITED... because i dont know what to necessarily expect from s2 too. there is a LOT of setup that happened in s1 and it #will fundamentally change how we view the characters and their relationships to one another i think? especially the main trio and #and and and and MILLLLYYYYYYYY GAHHHHHHHH IM SO EXCITED FOR HER!!! MILLY!!!!!! we all knew she was coming back. it was only natural. #i really hope they keep as Much as they can from the original design. ESPECIALLY HER PERSONALITY. god. do not take away her personality. and #do not take away her bigness i will CRY. but overall im happy the og 4 are going to be back and theyll be closer than before bc of all they #experienced together.... and ahhhh everything with knives... vash and his eriks arc.... #im rambling again but there's obviously a lot of hype there...eughh eughehu i love trigun so much i love love love love trigun #ruporas art
