tally hall sketches and other assorted doodles

Here ya go guys! I also have improvement pics from last year! Almost two years in the Tally Hall fandom! Woohoo! My Marvin's CD is gonna hate me even more after all of this

A Ross sketch! I'm super proud of how it turned out! Below is a close-up!

The aforementioned close-up, showing the shading on his face and the folds of his sleeve!

Zubin! I love the side profile, and I used his picture in the MMMM booklet as a reference! Close up below, so you can see some of the more fine details/shading

the close-up!

Here's Andrew! His hair is kinda hard to not fluff-ify, but I dealt with it anyways and tried my best to keep it close to reality. Obligatory close(r)-up below.

next will be some other random stuff, mostly tally hall, but some of it is oc art

drew this drawing of Ross last September. Not amazing but very stylized, which I love/hate. the tag on the bottom left reads, "he's rather disheveled but this is the best I could do back then"

wtf is he doing? He in an action movie or something? btw this was last-year's andrew. very stylized. i hate it.

decided not to include the other last-year Rob cause i hate it deeply. this one's much better. very fluffy. i dont like the collar tho

just me poking fun at my horrendous attempts at stylizing joe. im not gonna draw him as much as the others btw.

This is from an au created by @bonkdd, but i did rob and andrew's designs bc i never saw his designs for them. i also added a lot of lore and plot stuff because i really liked the concept. in simple terms the tallies are robots that were abandoned by Marvin after he passed away so now they're falling apart n stuff without him to care for them (that's why rob hides his face). Anyways, huge thanks to Bonk for the original idea! They're a great artist, you should go check them out!

Edith, drawn/sketched with a ballpoint pen.

Another one. I like this one better, but I spent two days on this one versus a half on hour on the other so i guess it makes sense

Adrian and Reuben (OCs), done in a college-ruled notebook bc i ran out of pages in my sketchbook. next is a close-up so you can see more shading.

probably my favorite gay couple i've ever written ngl

Ace again, but wearing Reuben's favorite sweater.

Looking mighty fine!

He's lookin' tough, he's got the stuff, he's got the spiffy shades... (/lyric)

pose practice

Boll weevil, why don't you get out of your home? (/lyric)

old art jumpscare - i actually kinda like this one, might redraw it. Below is the full thing

why is zubes staring like that??? its creepy

here's another. i don't know why it's sideways. andrew is scared of joe btw, this isn't the entire drawing

Did an embossing peice. It's the Mojo Chessmaster! I tried by best to make it as detailed as possible, and I think I did pretty alright. The neck was probably the worst part to do. Below are close-ups

the head of the guitar was a pain in the ass.

This part was also pretty tricky but it came out okay. the dials at the bottom are raised as much as I could get them to go, so I'm not worried about them. My issue here was the pickups.

I also added Flansburgh's little signature guy but i drew his hair because why not? Anyways this piece took me a good hour or so to finish, I think it'll fetch a good grade (it was for my metal design class).

I'll add a sketch I just did as a bonus:

it's from a tally hall fanfic/au i made back in may after my grandpa passed away. It was a great stress-reliever and I still really like how it turned out. It's about cryptids and monsters and shit. I'll post a summary on a different post because this one was mostly for the drawings. I might post a few installments of it on my ao3. It could be a weekly thing since i usually have time on fridays to write.

Once again, a close-up is available below.

I put literal hours of research on cryptids and of the area (ann harbor, MI) while writing this fic. It was fun though, and it helped me a lot. Feel free to ask me anything about the plot or world-building !

[dailydegurechaff]

since the year is over i thought it would be fun to take some time and gather up all the random sketches i have laying around that i never ended up posting to this blog, so here we go, lots of random images under the read more

starting off, the very first tanya i drew, on Dec 24 2022. I'm kinda glad i never posted it bc like. even after i finished it I was unhappy with it. it might be worth redrawing at some point I think

=

some more ancient things, those 6 black and white sketches were what i would describe as the preliminary daily degu sketches i suppose. they were also from Dec 2022.

similarly, the reindeer tanyas were from dec 2022 as well. the propaganda poster i posted on christmas this year was an homage to them, not that anyone would have got the reference considering i never posted them anywhere

kimono tanya & the two chibis were from february, theyre in unfinished purgatory

=

next up is random things i had laying around. these are all from varying points in time. some were daily degus i didnt post, some were self indugent doodles, others were just things i had laying around

=

next on the list, assorted fic fanarts both finished and scribbled left side would be random crap for my own ideas, but the right is for other people. featured fics include, Keychains, That Time I Got Isekai'd Again, We Are Each Our Own Devil, and Rising Heroine Tanya

=

self insert stuff. no other explanation.

=

some kind of old shipping stuff ;

=

finally, some uh. yeah. erich von lergen.

A whole collection of sketches I made last night while I waited for my laptop to finish its updates. Just a random assortment of daisymark stuff, because I love them dearly :')

What medium did you use to make the color wheel challenge (it looks amazing by the way)? I’m in awe of the level of technical skill and personality, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sculpture that has that sort of style

Thanks a lot, I'm happy to hear so much positive feedback :) The stuff is all done in 3D, the Clay-Doh shader is what does most of the job carrying the visuals.

I'm lucky that the rough feeling of clay marries well with my own weird style. I do most of the preparatory sketches on either MS Paint / Photoshop with a mouse. It's freeing, idk why. I then went onto blender for each one and "traced" in 3D and tweak the design a bit to make it work better. Here's a random assortment of the sketches:

As you can see, sometime bringing an official reference can help me with some 3D shapes. Most of the stuff is just for a render... so it works for the camera. If you go around some models... well. Bald rika.

One of the things that helps a lot selling the Clay feel i think it's the scale of it all. Adding some real props and making sure that the finger impressions were scaled to a believable size helps a lot. The lighting also does its job. I'm not very good at lighting, but I'm pretty proud of how it came out. Here's a screen without any characters and just the props.

There's also some stuff like pieces of characters being modelled separately as you would with clay itself etc etc. For anyone who just came across this post: check out the full render here!

Can I get an assortment of the Dano characters you write for with a s/o that loves to garden? Or a s/o that enjoys painting/sketching them? (I wanted to send you a request but I'm so bad at requests EEK SORRY!)

Gardening with Paul Dano Characters

Featuring: Louis Ives, Jay, Eli Sunday, Hank Thompson

T33TH HI!! I loved your idea and I think it's a cute prompt for the warmer months!! Tbh I just used this to write some of my favs + get some practice in writing some characters I barely written for! <33

Eli Sunday

- I think he would help you create a garden, whether for extra money or just for you to enjoy

- Don't exactly rely on him to do a lot of hard work though

- Sure Eli will provide the supplies and everything you need throughout the day

- but after you're done planting, he would want you to pray with him for a bountiful garden, for rain to come and bless your crops, and then that's it

- Would go on about how "we're" making great things together and how it's wonderful that you both are giving back to God's Earth

- Even though all he didn't do anything and you had to cater to the garden throughout the entire season

- Don't bring it up he'll deny it

Hank Thompson

- Hank just loves watching you garden

- He doesn't know a thing about gardening, he doesn't understand how you keep everything alive, but he is so enamored by it all

- I think he likes gifting you random seeds and house plants he thought you'd like

- Okay okay hear me out: Hank would totally love crafting those native wildflower seed bombs that are made out of mud and stuff

- He loves getting messy!! He loves spending time with you and playing with mud!!

- While it's not a traditional way of gardening, I think it could be fun night out if you and Hank went around throwing the seed packed balls into people's lawns and random patches of grass

- Then a couple weeks later, you two can go on a walk and admire your work!!

Jay

- He's so adamant about gardening, he has the greenest thumb out of the bunch

- Jay is sweet he probably has matching sunhats for the both of you

- All of his food comes from his own vegetable garden and he's so so proud of what you both accomplished together

- Even if there's wonky looking and small veggies, it happens sometimes and it doesn't deter Jay

- And if you love planting various flowers and plants? Oh he's just as in love!

- While it may not be your intention, he loves what you're doing for the local pollinators <33

- If you two had your own home I could guarantee that it just looks like a giant greenhouse. House plants everywhere.

Louis Ives

- Oh she admires your hobby so much!!

- She thinks about starting a garden of her own, planting strawberries or keeping a few succulents around all the time

- But honestly she just doesn't have a whole lot of time, so she just sticks to reading a whole bunch around it

- Yeah she's the kind of girl to think too much about flowers and it's meanings and she gives you them to show her love

- Please let her garden with you, teach her the basics of rooting and how to fence off wild animals and insects please she is begging

- Fun dates at the nursery !! Her being amazed at all the different kinds of plants and it's just an afternoon of ooo-ing and awe-ing

- Once she grows something and it blooms/ripens, she's so excited! She's sending you pictures asking if she did it right and immediately wants to gift them to you!

Also here's some random assorted sketches I collected in November! Tar man stuff and brush testing stuff

(I need to toy around with more firealpaca brushes haha)

[cutecatdoodles]

You have such a wide assortment of cute little characters. So I've been wondering, do you have a process for creating them? And if so what's that process roughly look like? For instance, do you think up a character you need/want first and then design them? Or do you draw out several designs, pick your favorite and assign them a personality?

You know, I actually don't have just one process! There's several ways for me to create an OC:

"I need someone here." I identify something I need (a town NPC, a stage enemy, someone's dad, whatever) and brainstorm a concept, complete with design. The design can later be refined and adjusted as I pin down what I want, with the personality often based on the vibes I get from the initial design sketch. Not all of these get used, and many of the used ones never reach OC status. Examples: Peep, Scarlet Tanaflare, Ark, Bicky Bear

"Speed design, go!" I need a character ASAP due to time pressure. My only idea going in is stuff like "a robot", "a roadblock", or "a protagonist I can draw easily enough to make a full game in 2 days", so I don't have time to refine it and go with the first pass. Somehow, these end up being popular. Examples: Roboki, Button Bit, Penny Panda, Pipistrelle

"You see a goblin." I put a throwaway NPC into an RP or story, but then that NPC keeps appearing or getting expanded and whoops they're an OC now, so I have to design them after the fact (unless it's a visual medium). This even happened with Udon's canonically dead parents to the point I wrote fanfiction for them. Examples: Pipsqueak, Squire, Udon's parents, Julie

"Lemme check the archives." I draw a random design with no intent to ever use it for anything, or for a purpose that didn't work out. It's only later that I remember the design, repurposing it for something I need after-the-fact. Examples: Kitty Seal, Toxic Zone, Starabbit, Wami

"Inspired by true events." The character's directly or loosely based on something that already exists, so I'm doing my own take on a pre-existing concept with a new personality. It can be a canon character, redesigning a character I was gifted, or even a redesign of my own OC! Examples: Tricky, Blend, Cryoza, Flamespin Wallaroo

"I put effort into this one!" Actually putting proper thoughts into a design. For example, when designing Mio, I wanted a classic animal mascot protagonist with a fat, huggable shape so she'd make a good plushie, who was also easy for children to draw, and who had some kind of accessory or clothing that wasn't generically girly. For these characters I take into account how easily visible their movements are, if their colors show easily, and so on. Even if they're far along, their design will be adjusted if something isn't working right and some have gotten complete overhauls multiple times. Examples: Mio, Silk/Dusty, Zev, Izzy

"I'm not even sure." Methods that don't fit into any of the above, like "I just REALLY wanted an OC of this type", "I can't sleep so I'm designing a protagonist out of spite", and "if I made a contest entry what would it act like?" Examples: Tennis & Fitz, Zicel, Shockwave Jerbolan, Kachin

I guess if it proves anything, it's that there is no specific best way for making an OC, haha.

Desk

Word Count: 2,423 CW: Food mention, Summary: Kaz was still working on that old warehouse door balanced on two fruit crates. Many of his papers ended up lined with the grooves from the door and he hid small things in the pockets hollowed out here and there. Reader had an idea and acted on it, gathering planks of wood whenever they could and sneaking in to measure his spaces. Finally, their plan was put into action and the desk started to be assembled. (Can be read as either platonic, romantic, or pre-romantic)

Y/N looked up from their crouched position when they heard a tell-tale creak on the stairs. Kaz’s cane thumped against the floor as he arrived at the attic landing and Y/N’s fingers scratched at the floor as they frantically stood. Papers, pens, and measuring sticks clutched in their hand, Y/N scrambled out the window and onto the roof.

They lay there, breathing hard and deeply, as they listened to the sounds of Kaz in his room below, ears straining so hard to hear they barely noticed the gray sky that stretched before their eyes. His footsteps paused after the creak of the door and Y/N could see the room in their mind’s eye, the way he put his hat away on the little hook by the door and hung his coat below it on a protruding nail. From there, his steps progressed into the room where he sat at the desk, the chair creaking as it spun. Papers rustled as he sorted through them before his uneven steps started again, heading toward the bedroom.

When Y/N was sure he was gone, they started their way back down to the ground. When they had first joined the Dregs as another informant, long before they’d upgraded to full time thug, Inej had shown them where a reliable drainpipe was located on the Slat’s slanted walls, allowing them to safely traverse the side of the building. They took advantage of that safe passage now, slipping down to the street and hurrying back into the building and up the stairs to their room.

For the next few days, they carried papers with them and would be found writing or sketching when given any free moment. Jesper sat down next to them multiple times and Y/N always hurried to stuff them back in their vest pocket, never letting him see what was on there. He’d groaned in protest and whined to be let in on the secret. Y/N just smiled and stuck their tongue out at him, not telling him anything about it.

Every once in a while, Kaz would glance over at them with a curious glint in his eyes. Y/N would smile at him but still angled themself away. Even sitting close enough to be considered intimately close by Kaz’s standards, they made sure he wasn’t able to see what they were working on as they sketched and made notes in secret.

Once the plans for the project were complete, Y/N moved on to actually trying to make it a reality. They gathered random planks of wood, paying other Dregs members a few coins for planks and nails and things of that nature. More and more time was spent in their room when they weren’t on a job. Whenever they would come out, either for jobs or meals or to get more supplies, they always had a faint smell of wood shavings about them and a pen tucked behind their ear, fingers a strange mix of ink and sawdust.

A quarter of the way through the project, Y/N ran into Kaz in the kitchen mid afternoon. They picked up an assortment of dried fruits, putting them in the small sack they’d brought with them. Y/N had really hoped some regular fruit would have still been around but those things were always a hot commodity in the Barrel and never lasted long in the Slat. When they turned to leave, their small bag filled with fruits, nuts, and a few pieces of sweets, Kaz stuck his cane in front of their path.

Y/N looked down at the piece of wood blocking their way. “Yes, Kaz?”

He looked up at them from his seat at a table, face unreadable to almost everyone but them. Y/N just quirked a brow at him, seeing the anticipation in his eyes, and waited for him to speak. Soon enough, he did. “Are you free this evening? Or will your attention be occupied by whatever secret project you think you’re hiding in your room?”

Y/N resisted the urge to laugh at the Lieutenant of the Dregs. Instead, they kept their mirth to the corners of their mouth and the twinkle in their eyes. “Yes, I’m free this evening. Is this about a job?” It would have been short notice for Kaz to send them on a job that night without prior information unless it was a small one. If it were about a job, this would be the time for the briefing or Kaz would tell them about it that evening.

He shook his head. “Not a job, no. I just want your company.” There was something else in his eyes, something more, but Y/N dared not comment on it. They left the clear vulnerability where it was, waiting for him to give voice to that spark in his eyes and the offering in his tone when he was ready to.

Instead, they nodded and Kaz withdrew his cane from their path. They smiled and bowed their head slightly as they passed him by. At the door, they turned back. “Kaz?” They took his answering hum as an invitation to continue. “Random question, but: silver, gold, or bronze?”

He chuckled lightly, a sound that felt as if Y/N was the only one to ever be graced with it. “Bronze.”

Y/N hummed, putting that in the blank spot they held in their mental blueprint for the hardware of the desk. “Have a good afternoon. I’ll see you at dinner.”

Back in their room, Y/N put the bag of food on their bed, the only clean surface in the small space. They sat cross-legged with their back to the outer wall beneath the tiny window and the bed to their side, the floor spread out in front of them. The clean space was really only large enough for them to sit like that if they pulled a few pages into their lap. The rest of the floor was taken up by the wood, papers, and tools. The only other clear parts of the floor was the stepping stones type path through the items.

Pulling the pen from behind their ear, Y/N jotted down a note about the hardware next to other notes that littered the page. Looking over the plans as a whole, they were pleased with what they saw. Everything was in order and all they needed was a few final notes on preferences before they had everything in order. Their evening with Kaz would be a nice time to relax and take a small break. In the meantime, they picked up a few planks and started fixing them together. Measurements were already done for the drawers and things like that so they could be put together.

The rest of the afternoon was spent on the drawers. When the sun set behind the harbor and the shadows grew long, Y/N stood from a position that had become one leg stretched off to the side and the other supporting their weight beneath them as they half-crouched over their work. After stretching themself out, Y/N traversed the messy floor to the doorway. Looking back at the room, their project half completed and scattered across the floor, Y/N felt that familiar sense of home be mingled with a feeling of pride at what they were accomplishing. They grabbed their notebook from the dresser and headed out the door to dinner.

When they entered the kitchen, they found Kaz already there. He looked up from the pot he was grabbing a serving from and raised a brow at them. Y/N flashed him a smile and moved to grab a bowl.  “Do you still want to spend time with each other tonight? No work coming in the way of it?”

Kaz nodded, handing them the serving spoon. He leaned against the counter beside them. “Of course I do. I don’t have any jobs lined up for today.”

“Good.” Y/N followed him upstairs, dipping their head when he held his door open for them.

They both slipped inside the room, the door swinging shut behind them. Kaz settled himself at his desk, his usual seat in the attic room. Y/N placed their bowl in their usual chair before they perused Kaz’s shelves. He glanced up at them and sighed, the pen clicking softly as it hit the desk. “You do realize I don’t have anything new since the last time you looked?”

Y/N chuckled, fingers sliding along the spines. “I know. I still like to look. It’s like . . . greeting old friends whenever I see these books.”

Kaz didn’t respond, his spoon clinking against the bowl. Y/N let themself look over the entirety of the small bookshelf. Genres were noted along with styles and general preferences along those lines. When they were satisfied with their perusal, they picked out a book, pulling it gently from the shelf, and went to sit down.

Curled in their chair, bowl in their lap and book in their hand, Y/N let themself get lost for a moment. Head first and heart close behind, they dove into a story of intrigue and mystery, danger and thrill, stealing from one for the benefit of another, all things Kaz enjoyed and looked forward to. They allowed their mind to get lulled into the swaying dance that is the words on the page, eyes gliding over the black markings as they were transported to a different world. Almost mechanically, they ate their meal as they read, too busy consuming the story to notice what they were eating.

When they finally pulled out of the story and found themself back in the attic, bowl empty and rain beating on the roof, Kaz was looking at them with a soft fondness shining in his eyes that, they were convinced, no one else would ever get to see. Y/N chuckled, letting the hand with the book fall to their lap with a finger marking their spot. “Do I have something on my face?”

Kaz shook his head, eyes blinking in that way he did to snap himself out of a daze. “No, I was just doing some calculations. That’s all.”

Y/N hummed. The bowl got moved to the floor as they shifted their position. They curled further into the chair, now only pretending to read their book. Instead, they surveyed Kaz and how he utilized his desk. It was only an old door on two crates but Kaz used it as if it were the desk of a Merch. They smiled behind their shield as they thought of the new desk that lay in pieces in their room, waiting to be put together. Kaz’s every movement was tracked and categorized, noticing where objects were placed and how he moved around the desk.

Kaz chuckled. “You really should be more careful at who you stare at, Y/N darling. Someone might start to think you have ulterior motives.”

Y/N felt their face growing hot as they ducked behind the book. “I don’t know what you could possibly mean by that, Kaz dear.” The nicknames were an old banter they’d picked up as they’d worked together, a soft and familiar rhythm they both knew to rely on.

Kaz’s next words held a smile, even as his face remained impassive. “Perhaps, in that case, you should go back to reading your book.”

After watching him constantly check a myriad of different documents and putting them in small places around the crates, even in a part of the door that had been hollowed out at some point, Y/N pulled a small notebook from their pocket. They made small adjustments to the compartments in the desk to include a few hidden compartments for extremely sensitive information as well as hidden but easily accessed spaces for information that was changed often. The rest of their evening together went similarly. Y/N would make notes about Kaz’s desk needs or get lost in their book as he worked, both coming away from their respective activities long enough to toss a few quips back and forth.

A month and three weeks later, the new desk was finished and sat in Y/N’s room in sections. They planned to put it together in the attic due to its sheer size, leaving it in parts for now. What had been a secretive process now became a waiting game as Kaz couldn’t be using his old desk as Y/N tried to replace it.

Like clockwork, Kaz went to the Crow Club in the middle of the week, checking on everything. Y/N saw that day as their chance. It was relatively sunny and the pigeons were out in droves. Almost every member of the gang was on the streets, on a job, or at the club. The Slat was as silent as it would ever get and it was the perfect time to move.

Y/N moved the door and crates to the side, leaning the warehouse door against the wall to give themself room before they went back for the new desk. The middle section was the first to move up. It had the least drawers and cabinets in it and was the easiest to carry. Next was the left section, then the right. Carefully, they shifted everything from the old desk to the new one, putting almost everything right where it should be.

They ran their fingers over the slot for Kaz’s cane, one of the trickiest things they’d figured out in the whole thing. When the regular things were in their proper positions, Y/N put the sensitive materials in the hidden compartments, a nondescript notebook being left on the desk to tell Kaz where the documents are. As a final touch, a vase of flowers was placed on the corner of the desk to liven up the space.

Just as they finished getting rid of the old desk, the front door opened and a familiar cane clicked against the wooden floor. Per Haskell’s voice called from his ground floor office and the railing creaked before the cane headed toward that part of the building. Y/N took that opportunity to head to their room with cleaning supplies, getting rid of all traces of sawdust and tung oil. When their room no longer smelled like a lumber mill, they flopped onto their small bed and let the thin mattress embrace their weight. Sleep claimed them soon after.

Since I’ve gotten some new followers recently and about-pages aren’t reliably seen anymore, I figured it’s finally time for a pinned post.

So, hi! You can call me Miia. I’m Finnish and have existed since 1989. This is where I post sketches, not-so-sketches and definitely-not-sketches of whatever, usually my OCs. Sometimes I might ramble. Things here tend to be queer.

Review Blurbs: The Owl House Finale!

This is quite late but here it is, my assortment of random thoughts and screenshots from the finale.

-For one, the music was phenomenal; I feel like the crew really leaned into the fantasy elements for the soundtrack and it worked very well!

-The animation was gorgeous as usual, especially for the final battle (I adored everyone's outfits this episode). The finale went all out with the set and character designs so there is no shortage of stuff to draw once I get into sketching!

-Speaking of the final battle, you could tell they wanted something action packed but not repetitive to other final fight scenes. Luz wasn't just punching the hell out of Belos, she was aiming to separate him from the heart so he'd be powerless, while Eda helped her stronghold her way to him as King and Raine kept up defenses. Its an interesting juxtaposition from how Luz imagined her "epic fight scenes" from the very first episode of the show, where she's firing a bazooka at a giant monster with explosions going off and all the works; even though this final fight scene was flashy, the ultimate goal was to destabilize Belos into a weaker form so he couldn't cause any more harm, and I feel like that in itself show's Luz's growth as a person with a more grounded head on her shoulders.

-Very surprised that the show actually killed off Belos. Like, no imprisonment, no open-ended interpretation; they legit watched him corrode from acid rain and then curb stomped him to death. That's one helluva message to send in a kid's show (which I elaborated on in this post), and its very bold of the crew considering how strongly media tends to push for pacifism in children's content. Networks don't want kids thinking death is justified for bad people until they're at least old enough to understand the severity of taking a life, and I honestly can understand where they're coming from. However, that scene definitely did work very well when it comes to Luz's character (my thoughts are on the linked post) which is why I understand the decision to do it for the sake of storytelling. So yeah, very bold move that I think could've been executed better, but can't say I'm not very impressed.

-Ok, on to screenies!

I am unhealthily obsessed with this look. Of course Mr./Ms. "but he does get his good looks from me" Titan would make sure Luz was dripped out in the most stylish final form possible lmao. I also like how her form of ultimate power includes all the magic glyphs being used at once, something I'm sure only the Titans could handle (well, the Titans + one funky little human).

Funny frames for your serotonin (featuring King going into shock)

We finally met the Titan! (Dilf detected) Seriously his vibe was great, he really is a laid back dad giving Luz uncle advice. Also loved how he is canonically nonbinary (he mentioned he was viewed as a king and a queen and that being called "dad" was not inherent to him but was acceptable). It was very poetic how we meet him through Luz and see him finally leave as a spirit; we want him to come back but we've known he was dead, and nothing could change that. At the very least, he got a final send off, and one last word in to his son through Luz. Gonna miss you Titan papa <;3 (Obligatory he looks and acts like Sans Undertale fuck you)

Eda's chaotic smirk makes me weak in the knees. Dear god. Anyway

Of course Hooty makes his return in the most extra way possible, that's why he's my favorite lmao

Amity being disgusted by Hooty's existence, some things never change <3

Alador finally got that hug! I remember people commenting on how important it was that when Amity was open to forgiving Alador for his parenting, he went for a hug and she rejected it, saying that they'd work on it. She set boundaries and opened up to her father when she was ready to, when she felt she could trust him again, which makes this hug all the more rewarding.

Eda's a Headmaster! Very fitting for her that her whole journey since the start of the show was learning to become a mentor, and now she's the principle of her own school "The University of Wild Magic". Also love the new look (the pirate hook is so extra, and so very Eda).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's about it! There were many parts of the finale that I feel others have gone over already so I'll leave that up to them. Thanks for reading and have a good one. Goodbye The Owl House, until next time!

[deathmycotime]

a sort of idea I've been having recently !!!!

I'd love to make a comic or storyboard (or even just a set of drawings / sketches) out of it but I know I ain't never got the time these days.

I still want to talk about it anyway so ->

This takes place like, in the events of the original story, but, more focused on a what-if, i guess? where Aeron gets caught by the reapers and in an attempt to fix the,, broken timeline (?) he ends up integrating with the temporal network of the universe or something (I don't have any proper terminology yet).

Supposedly it starts with a collection of scenes of Noctis and Aeron's lives and daily routine and them just living together all that. Some initial ideas: Them waking up and getting ready, Aeron taking a fruit from the fruitbowl for breakfast, Noctis making coffee to go. Aeron having this one brand of apple tea canned drink and a habit is that he always leaves one half-drinken on the coffee table and then opening up a new one before the previous was finished (lmao tf man). Noctis often forgetting her keys when leaving the house, and Aeron being the one to remind and toss it to her before leaving. Idk man a lot of mundane stuff.

Maybe also a little about the people around them. Izz being their friend. then them visiting aeron's parents and family. maybe also hanging out with cryo and vern. etc etc.

Then blip to their first encounter with the time anomaly creatures and the reapers.

Then fast forward to destruction (???). Noctis sees their friend in the center of the monstrous amalgamation (is like, those things with connections. idk how to explain them. I imagine it like lichen), devastated as they get close to Aeron. They reach out to touch his face, then the lichen thing (? helpppp words) creeping up to their hand. They put their forehead on Aeron's, close their eyes as the thing starts covering them, consuming.

Then Noctis woke up, as if nothing had happened. They continue their normal routine, making coffee, then heading out to work. Noctis enters back into the house because they forgot their keys.

Then it's just a series of scenes of Noctis in their daily life, it's exactly the same as before. They suddenly get a feeling to check what we know as Aeron's room, but when she opens, it's just the storage room. They thought nothing of it, but soon they start having weird distant feelings, like something is missing. It's like the empty feeling that suddenly attacks you for no reason, and you can't explain it either. It's like Noctis has a memory, but it's stuck in the back of their mind. Like when you hear a song in your head, but can't remember the lyrics. Or when you can think of a word, and you know there is the word, but struggle to get it off your tongue.

Noctis starts buying fruits to fill a fruit bowl, despite not really one to eat them as much. They also get the urge to buy a specific brand of can drink. Then a scene where she drinks it, then puts it on the table (unknowingly where Aeron always places it).

It starts getting weird, where she becomes more aware of the word "Aeron", or i guess, there's just one too many coincidences of things spelling out "aeron" (a random generated letters of a receipt has the word, assortment of books with a letter on the sleeve that spells it, keymash with the word in the middle, etc.) that is not obvious for others, but is difficult for her to ignore for some reason.

Eventually Noctis starts asking Izz if "aeron" rung a bell. Izz probably just says something like "Oh, you mean Aaron, the school janitor?" etc etc. Then Noctis looked it up or whatever but still not getting answers. They start going to places, like a construction site, and just, trying to understand tf going on. Then meets Cryo (and maybe Vern) who ask her to leave because mam this is a construction area (?) so then Noctis asks if they know any Aeron and they just say no. (or maybe points to a guy working there named Aaron but Noctis doesn't recognize the dude and it doesn't help anything so she just leaves)

Idk how to write this part, but basically a lot more pieces of what seems to be memories start to surface, and it's making noctis go a little unstable by the moment. She'd become more and more desperate to find out, reading up on the sciene of brain and memory, then ending up reading about dreams and mystical things related to her experience. She started borrowing a lot of books from the library about uhh the mystic and spiritual related things (?).

This starts taking a toll out of their life, where she starts missing work and getting trouble and stuff leading to Noctis resigning. Worried, Izz visited their place, then seeing the messy state of their apartment, full of notes about something kinda occult-y and stuff. Noctis still somewhat tried to hide whatever was going on, and Izz didn't understand anyway. Izz manages to convince Noctis to spend time with her, joining the crochetting club on the weekend, getting lunch together, walking around the park etc. and for the few days Noctis is distracted from the weird memories and seemed to be doing better. One night, Izz brings Noctis along to a nightclub and, well, Noctis shouldn't be at the club🗿 LMAO then she drives Izz back home and starts remembering about the memories and that she was determined to get the meaning of all that.

Noctis starts looking up people nearby, if there was any person nearby named Aeron. Idk borderline stalking social media and i guess finding an post by an old woman that named their artwork 'aeron' or soemthing. she looked through their photos and the a picture of the old woman with an old man felt familiar to Noctis.

She takes a visit to their shop or something, and started asking if they knew an aeron. At first they were like "ah why do you suddenly ask that" and she's like "oh i met them before and wanted to meet again" or something idk man. but that surprises the couple and they invite her to have a talk over some tea.

They start talking about Aeron, their son, the say that Noctis might have the wrong person, because that Aeron had already died when he was younger. The couple started asking if she had any relatives or friends that could help them, but she was already in shock and disbelief and still insisted she knew aeron. So the couple tried calming her down and suggested that they know people that can help her, meaning psychiatric help.

This was the point where Noctis kinda broke. (?) They start getting back to reading up about weird occurences, about "hidden memories", leading to sorta occult-ish things.

I don't know how to explain this part. Basically Noctis follows a book on performing a ritual at the storage room, which involves,, something.

And before they could finish the final step of the ritual, something enters in their peripheral vision.

A feather(??), flying, but more importantly, a dark figure standing in the corner of their eye.

The figure must've not expected it when Noctis jumps(?) on them.

The figure's hood falls off(?), revealing their face.

A face, somewhat all too familiar to Noctis

Aeron.

[thesylvanhound]

☕ Do you do warmup sketches before drawing? (Bonus: do you have any to share?)

honestly, no LMAO

i just Go For It, and sometimes it becomes something i want to finish and other times it just ends up being an unfinished sketch. most of the time i just delete anything i'm not somewhat happy with so there's not much that would count as a warmup sketch 😔

but here's an assortment of random stuff i never finished:

2022 Art Summary

it is that time of the year again, folks. this year has felt like forever and so short simultaneously. it’s felt like nothing and everything was happening. it was a weird year for me, probably because for the most part it was rather monotonous. but there were some good things to look back on, and as per usual i’m here to round it up here for you all to look at and enjoy :3

i’ll be honest. i was really worried about the art summary this year at first because these first few months were so sparse. i even considered just condensing the whole thing into quarters since this one was so lacking. but as the year went on, the more things i had to share, so for sake of brevity i will be putting the first three months up all at once

included in this quarter are assorted Cosmic Legacy character sketches, a Genshin Impact sona to continue the trend i had wanted to set at the end of 2021 (which i did not continue afterward), a lil valentine’s day present to my girlfriend, and a shiny form for my sona that was just part of a inside bandwagon. not much to say otherwise :/

the one major thing that happened in the first few months of 2022 was that i FINALLY. GOT MY HANDS. ON A NINTENDO SWITCH. I CAN NO LONGER MEME ABOUT BEING SWITCHLESS

so that was pretty exciting :>

the release of Pokemon Legends: Arceus is what broke me, but before i played that i started off with a blind nuzlocke of Pokemon Shield, which is what the lil digital doodle in March is about; i had just caught a Stunky i named Wasabi and i was indifferent to Stunky up until catching him where i just fell in love with it

so, AI art, huh? this was when it was burgeoning, and still fun and popular to make. so when i saw some people using a 3d pokemon generator i made a whole bunch and gave it a go. i generated about 30 of them and hadn’t quite gotten to around a third of that, but the few i did were really fun to draw!

(the lil gremlin one at the top corner is uncolored here bc when i did try to color it my brain fully glitched and screwed up royally so i opted out of showing my failure here lol)

so my friend Cake started streaming a game called Your Turn to Die with me and our partner Stacey during the spring starting in late March, and it was such an incredible time that i miss being a part of (if you wanna watch our full playthrough, the vods are saved on her channel here)

so towards the end of our playthrough i decided to try my hand at drawing some stuff because my brain could not simply hold all of my feelings for them

i am definitely not biased because i played both Keiji and Rio Ranger in the stream, but i sure did like them a lot, and it was really fun to draw them :>

had a lot of cosmic drawings this month, most likely due to celebrating the One Year Anniversary of the concept at the beginning of the month! we celebrated with a cute little collab. i happened to continue the cosmic train on my end by coming up with a funny meme video idea (that we will get back to multiple times later on) and i also worked on a couple pieces in preparation for an upcoming event in the next month...

I FINALLY REMEMBERED TO SIGN UP AND PARTICIPATE IN ARTFIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME

it was a really fun event but i did not anticipate how late i would start my entries and how much time it would take to do them well, so i only got a few out, but i’m really proud of them! it was awesome to see all these brain children of random people from all around, and to get a couple responses back of my own as well! i’m excited to give it another go next year :3

i did not get a whole lot of art things done this month because MY GIRLFRIEND (and her roommate) CAME FROM OVERSEAS TO VISIT!!

it was such a great time being with them, and we had so much going on i didn’t get much opportunity to do much, but that was fine. one thing, related to my partner actually, is my pokemon gym trainer sona here! Stacey had been thinking about a fakemon region and wanted her friends as gym leaders, so i offered myself as a ground-type trainer, since it’s one of my favorite types and is rather underrated

a little more work got done on the cosmic meme video, and a couple other lil doodles. not much else artwise, but an awesome month regardless :3

idk why this month was so lacking, cuz this is pretty much all i had lol

the one decent sketch of my sona being angy was inspired by a post i found on here that was like... if you were a villain in a movie, what song would be playing at the point you would snap

and the choice i made was Faint by Linkin Park cuz it seemed applicable. and then my brain decided to listen to it on repeat and i ended up drawing that sketch. so that was cool :0

as per usual i do at least attempt to do an october art challenge, and this time i wanted to try this year’s annual list from Thomas Sanders, and it was pretty fun! i was really into it the first week, but then i got behind and after that point many of the prompts didn’t hold my attention, so... i trailed off. again

but! i do really like these ones in particular. didn’t really have much else after that so i’m glad i had fun with those

again this is p much all i had - november was a pretty nice time actually, with lots of gaming stuff going on with me n friends, but not so much art stuff was going on then

after having completed playing pkmn shield back in june, i tried my hand at pkmn legends pretty much right after that... and it didn’t quite click with me, though i did really like it. and then over the next few months i got back into pkmn go and that’s when i realized That’s more like what legends is about - it just screwed me up coming from a regular pkmn game. so, this month, i picked it up again and i’ve gotten much farther and much more attached!

in addition, later in the month my friends and i got back into playing stardew valley after nearly a year’s hiatus, and we made our characters based on the main trio in Cosmic Legacy, and so i drew Lalun with a parsnip. it was funny

and speaking of cosmic and video game things, Sonic Frontiers came out and i... did not get that one (though i will one day cuz it looks rad) BUT one of my friends got super into it and got me hooked on one of the songs, and then the part of my brain that associates fandom stuff with songs (a rarely triggered part of my brain) started to tie that to [REDACTED] here, as inspiration for their character. maybe. idk but the song gave me vibes that they could definitely have and i thought it was cool and i made a cool art with it too so yay

and here we are, at the end of the year! the sonic hype train was still rolling so i thought about giving them another go and they turned out pretty good! and i pumped out some more pokemon content at the very end to inflate this month’s art stuff a lil bit more

OH YEAH and that cosmic meme got finished just in time for crimmis! here is the link to that since i would not post it here

all in all it’s been. a year, to say the least. i am definitely looking forward to new things in the new year, but this one had been pretty alright. lots of fun and memorable things that hopefully i can continue doing similarly in the future :3

#my art stuff #art summary #WHOO i've got it out with time to spare! #this year was pretty sad in terms of art but what i had done and what other things i'd experienced were still awesome #here's to more in the next one! hopefully we can get a resurgence
