HAPPY STS!

For any WIP(S) of your choice, what has inspired you to write your WIP(S)?

Thanks for the ask! <3

Not sure if you mean motivation or artistic inspiration, so..... gonna answer for both, for as many of them as I can think of.

For motivation, there’s two main ones that are behind every story I write: The characters in my brain want to escape, and I want to write the story I’d wanna read. Astral is special and gets a third minor motivator of spite, bc if I can ever get my ass in gear to finish it, I’d like to try to publish it one day. And uh, that is a bit of a spite dream, thanks ma and brother :P

For artistic inspiration:

Astral: I’ve talked about it before, but the initial inspiration for Astral comes from this post here. And, for funsies, all the stuff I’ve hoarded as Astral inspiration since 2015.

Child of Flame and Sky: ..... I just really wanted to write something where people had wings lmao

OG: ..... okay look. I was 13 and wanted to write something to be cool and and show off to my friends and post on Figment lol. Is the initial story full of cliches and deus ex machina? Yes. Does it have good bones? Obviously, otherwise the characters wouldn’t still be kicking and I wouldn’t be contemplating redoing their original story approx a decade later lol.

Racing the Sun: Look. If you spend your formative years being told “Don’t drive after dark!”, then don’t be surprised when your brain starts to throw spaghetti at the wall of “society where everything stops at sundown bc something comes out at night”

Dumbass Immortals: Fun fact, actually inspired by a dream I had! I remember none of it now except the vibes, the characters that would become Harmony and Jayy (and a random child. idk), and one really fuckin cool scene I hope I can actually work into the story itself lol.

Lost Beneath the Waves: Inspired by the prompt “Prince/princess has to give up something to escape the world they come from.”

Space Pirates: The vibes of Star Wars, honestly. Sorta that space opera/western vibe (except replace western with whatever genre pirate movies are lol)

Sun has been redesigned!! He looks better yay!

Also moon again so they're in the same post yay!

#fnaf iz au #maudiemoods art tag #moondrop #sundrop #i think theyd work in the nursery! like first irken contact after the smeets are born! #sun and moon guide the little ones to their jobs! (omg that sounds awful the irken race sucks JDJWKFJEKJDKAJS) #and sun and moon encouraged the young to fulfill their duties to the best they can and to the standards of the race l #idk maybe sun and moon have to terminate those who cant stay in line or do their job #BUT maybe they actually just hide the little defectives and raise them!

Made this keychain while i was sad for Logan after the race. I'm so happy with the result and also i think doodles and references come out good ฅ⁠^⁠•⁠ﻌ⁠•⁠^⁠ฅ

I put more pics under cut if you want to see!!!

There some photos without any drawings plus just doodles bc it's easy to miss something with how much I going on there 😭

Also i finally have plase to rumble about every little detail (tags)

#ls2 #logan sargeant #“matching with osc” bc i used same bead on oscar charm i wear #also used my favourite picture of hin fishing #and his eyes #why can't i understand what colour exactly are they #so i used two beads to represent them #also i love how white and blue line merge a bit when they cross #ones near “Williams” #also metal eyes represent pressure on him this season #i thought it was cool #also i added as much stars ar i could #firstly because Logan is MY star #but also because AMERRRRICA 🦅🦅🦅 #also i think I'm sooooo funny for that eagle charm #and i still find so endearing the fact that Logan loves fishing #i needed to find references to draw that fish #also literally everything I drawn with my finger #I'm so proud of the result #f1 #williams racing #also moonstone is there for the whole “logan is the moon and oscar is sun” thing #i love pain and loscar as you can see #also i love golden bead for his hair bc it have really pretty colour and the vibe is very right for him #i think that's all #thanks for reading #I'm so in love with creating

So since street racer au y/n was six when Moon found them and their fifteen now, i cant help but imagine all the fun stuff they did together whiel y/n grew up. 

Like i bet Sun took them to some racing events and Moon teatches them self-defence.

Street racer AU belongs to @castercassette

#i know its a racing au #i just realy like the idea of Sun and Moon raising y/n #street racer au #fnaf au #fnaf sun and moon #fnaf sun #fnaf moon #fnaf security breach

#f1 #I think the Aston is gorgeous in the sunlight #the Mercedes is kind of a let down in the sun but I think it’ll look better in the wet or in night races #I think ​this is the only angle that the AlphaTauri is acceptable

[gorgynei]

i know it's a holdover from them being invented so that rwby could have a catgirl, but MAN i wish the faunus got to be more bestial. theyre supposed to be a perfect mix between animals and humans, but theyre SO much more human. im gonna start drawing them with more animal traits and fur for fun

#if you're going to create an entirely new animal-like race for your setting you should make it cooler than ''human with one new body part'' #sun would look the same because well. he's a monkey faunus. and humans and monkeys are pretty similar. he just should be hairier #im extremely anti blake having a tail UNLESS its for the purposes of making faunus more like animals. then im here for it #aceart #rwby #blake belladona #sun wukong #adam taurus
