guy who vastly underestimated how much of a pain in the ass it would be to sew a costume that needs 12 yards of bias tape

#garak is taking forever oh my god...... it's like day 9 of spending all day working on it #I'm like sooooo close though. I just need to attach the belt and hand sew the sleeves and draw the pattern on the fabric #I convinced myself to start this project by deluding myself into thinking it would only take a few days #I've NEVER put this much effort into a project before I only ever half-ass things and/or give up in the middle #oughhh and I still have to make his prosthetics. and finish the spunnysuit. and the ka'athyra #I think. the kira cosplay is probably not going to happen for stlv this year. I guess I have to live with that #narcissus's echoes

Okay I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure Leo has the most episodes that are mainly focused on him, which is interesting

This was a very interesting question and I wondered if that was the case! So I went and tried to take a look.

What I found going in is that Leo seems to be in the most non-Ensemble episodes, and the episodes that focus on him stand out more since they tend to not have the rest of the cast (as in, Hueso stands in as his other focused character, rather than one of Leo’s family members like most everyone else gets.)

Leo’s focused episodes also tend to have the entire Ensemble as supporting characters, again rather than the one or two other main characters that his bros and April tend to get. What is most notable I think is that while other characters have just about as much focused episodes, Leo’s (and Donnie’s) in particular seem to focus on their personal struggles more rather than just an outside conflict, so they stand out more than others in that way too.

Honestly going through the episodes it’s pretty amazing to see how overall even things are? Like even if some got more focus than others, the range is under 8 points for the four bros, which is nice to see.

Below is a messy and hard to read culmination of my research which undoubtedly contains mistakes here and there. Fair warning that this is based on my own memory and of episode synopsis and the like, and I didn’t include the movie but that one is pretty obvious. It’s also fairly subjective what one may consider to be a “focus” or not. I tried to take into account what happens within the episodes, so hopefully this is fairly accurate? Beware it’s long so I’ll put it under a read more-

Notes to take into account before the scores-

Full Focus means that a lot of time is spent with the character and they’re one of the “focuses” of the episode outside of an ensemble way. Example of this is Minotaur Maze which is both a Leo and Ensemble episode, but Leo gets the Full Focus while Ensemble in this instance gets-

Partial Focus just means that the characters are present in the episode and have enough focus put on them to differentiate them from the Ensemble. They have a notable part in the episode but it is not about them, and this can even include when they are directly involved in the conflict. And example of this is Donnie’s Gifts which is an Ensemble and Donnie episode where despite Donnie being the driving force, Ensemble gets the Full Focus and Donnie gets Partial Focus but-

Main Character is the scoring which takes into account whether the episode centers around a specific character or characters. Note than even if a character has Full Focus, it’s possible that they’re not the Main Character, and even if the character has Partial Focus, they can still be the Main Character. Main Character scoring does not add into how I calculated the-

Overall Score - aka the culmination of both the Full and Partial Focuses. Full Focus gets 3 points, and Partial Focus gets 2s.

Here is the scoring-

April - 3 2 3 2 3 3 3 2 3

Full Focus: 25

Partial Focus: 17

Minimal Focus: 3

Overall Score: 112

*’s (it’s not very easy to decipher what asterisk leads to what, sorry):

*1: Mascot Melee is pretty ensemble, but Raph does quite a bit in it

*2: Stuck on You is majorly ensemble but Raph is still focused on quite a bit

*3: Hot Soup: The Game has ensemble qualities, but is mainly Mikey and Casey Sr

*4: You Got Served can arguably be a 2 as well since major focus is also on Hueso

*5: Turtle-dega Nights: The Ballad of the Rat Man can arguably be considered more of a Donnie and Splinter episode so Mikey will get a 2 here

*6: Repairin’ the Baron - same as above sorta. All three of Mikey Raph and Baron have big roles to play in this episode but as they share them with each other, it’s arguable whether these 3s should be 2 1/2s.

*7: The Hidden City Job - despite Leo being the only main character really present, the main focus is more on Hueso and his brother

*8: Finale can be considered high for both Raph (he had a lot of great focus) Casey Sr. (she was a major part of the finale AND we learn her name) and especially Splinter (literally everything he did tbh)

Main findings for this are than Raph and ESPECIALLY Mikey deserve more episodes tbh. I hope I didn’t miss any episodes, but it was a bit difficult to keep track of everything haha.

#non au ask #this took a few hours haha #I’m still mostly taking a break from things right now but I wanted to look into this because it seemed interesting #there would be an entirely different outcome if the scoring was about personal struggles #totally get if others get a different scoring here #this is just what worked for me #it Made Sense #to me and probably only me haha #again though the fact that all the bros are under 10 points of each other is really good to see

about to finally start work on the first part of the comic! but i made some nice-looking character sheets for them. (finally happy with how a couple of these guys look heh)

(if you have no idea who the heck eyhm is i've got a post on here here.)

#nearly there though! i've been figuring out a couple things but in the next day or two i should be started on the first part. #my art #pizza tower #pizza tower oc #still gonna be around 20 or so parts from the look of it. might've shortened it down a couple though #some of the parts might just be a bit longer than others. kinda hard figuring out how to separate a few places into neat little bits. #finally think i've got a good brick design down though. he needs to be Chonky. he's a big boy. #hopefully this should be fun though! it sounds kinda exciting to be doing this much work. #hey if i did art all of october then this shouldn't be too much harder. guess we'll see. #eyhm stuff #technically!

pls know that I bought myself a little art scrapbook after seeing yours and I am, like, ABSURDLY excited to use it 💚

HELL YEAH HELL YEAH HELL YEAH!!!

I hope you have a lot of fun!

Journaling and scrapbooking have become a lot of fun to me lately because they're so versatile: you can put all kinds of stuff in 'em, and there's soooo many accessories and specialty items you can get nowadays.

Here's some of my favorite stuff to use with my hobonichi planner: planner-specific sticky notes, regular and mini sized sticky notes, washi tape and washi tape cutter, white-out tape, and a glue pen + tombow's glue dots roller. You can't forget a good pair of scissors or an x-acto knife, either.

So far I've gotten more use out of the glue pen; it's perfect for the mini sticky notes and when I cut stuff out and it's in odd shapes the glue tape can't quite handle:

Don't forget to get a bunch of weird stickers! Get some tape! Marker pens!! A ruler! An edge cutter for papers to make em round or decorative! More stickers!!!!

Again, I really hope you have fun in your scrapbook!! ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

#answered #replies #i do a lot of my online shopping on jetpens still #but i do like dollar stores and weird toy stores and bookstores and novelty places for stickers #stationery and stuff i can get at work... i got the glue pen and the tape dots there too #a few friends have also sent me stickers and things and i love them a lot too #though those I've used on sketchbooks more than my hobonichi #anyway the most important thing is to have fun with it! #and if it's an everyday thing it really does make you be a little more present in your day to find something to write about #anyway! have fun! do cool stuff! don't stress about it! enjoy it!!!

recent lounging babey images

#he's so floppy recently and I hope it's just the heat. I think wamr weather makes everyone floppy and loungy #a beauntifulle boye... #cats #STILL working on posting some drafts. finishing new poll adventure.. other things... It's just hard with the weather and other things going #on. I've had a few more doctors appointments and other things to do recently that have to be done in a time limit #so I hvae to use my extremely limited energy working on that instead of doing the things I'd really rather do. :T #Main focuses though are keeping up better with doing and posting costumes + sculptures as main creative things. at least finishing the #main poll adventure story. Reworking the game I kind of abandoned for a few years. keeping up with game videos and a few other side things. #Especially the game though. I've been in a really worldbuildy mood recently. I just wish that was easier to manifest into something. I've #now put the worldbuilding slideshow reading video on pause for a while because it's SOOO long to do #and I think I should prioritize making games and stuff instead. but still other things. IT's just kind of like.. I have a whole world and #everything very built and planned out but now.. what do I do with it? what's the best way to share that? factual slideshows just going over #the information like a dictionary? make it into a game? write short stories? do art attached to the world? etc. etc. ?? There are so many #potential avenues I end up kind of flip flopping between them a lot because none really seem more beneficial than the others and they all #seem equally enjoyable and also equally hard so. It's like?? I guess just do what the hell ever and hope I made the right choice in terms o #cost benefit and reward for my time lol. ANYWAY.. Also why I'm in my 'trying to make friends' era still because I think having other creat #ive friends can help you find direction like.. people will meet each other and then go 'hey lol just for fun lets start a project together! #and then like 5 years later it's genuinely become something. etc. having other people to help weed out ideas and start small creative teams #together and etc. I feel is a very beneficial part of networking or whatever but also I have the social capacity of a stale bread roll and #am also inherently unrelatable to seemingly a majority of people due to my hermit wizard swag (detachment from general society and hyper #focus on fantasy worlds in my head gjhghj) so trying to meet people as a grown adult with social issues is Very easy and fun (it is not) #even very basic things like my core communication style is so incompatible with a lot of people it's like.. hhhh... People in this modern #age have GOT to stop being afraid of phone calls and/or text that is longer than 6 paragraphs. Work with me here. I WANT to talk to you. bu #I do not know what your emojis mean and it's physically impossible for me to type less than 85 sentences. please.. hhjgjgb #AAANYWAY!! I am working on things when I can given the circumstances (SUMMER).. hopefully some costume pictures and stuff soon. :'3 #I've not forgotten about my art and etc. - as usual I just am bad at social media and also functioning if it's above 65F lol

tervis (oc) sightings

/ id: three screenshots from the video game pathologic. tervis, a hunched figure wearing long hooded robes and carrying a walking staff, has been digitally painted into each scene. the first shows tervis crouching on a metal walkway between two buildings in the factory district. the second shows tervis with their hand pressed against an infected house, looking balefully out into the night. the third shows tervis sitting against the wall of the railway station, observing the trains. end id. /

#artwork #pathologic #tervis #it is my terv...........my tervy.............my tervlet #ive been having so much fun doing these :-D highly recommend if you have an oc and some screenshots to stick them in it is so rewarding #ive changed around a few things re patho tervis i formerly said she lives in the steppe but now ive decided shes got a nest in the factory #district somewhere. makes a lot more sense for him i think #ive also changed his staff it used to be a wooden one but ive changed it into a bit of rebar which shes bent into a hook shape at the top #he uses it for pulling himself up onto things. hes got every physical problem imaginable but hes a weirdly strong little guy #it's my attempt to replicate the creepiness of 40k tervis swarming up walls and scuttling around in the vents. not quite as unsettling but #it would still look very weird i imagine #anyway i hope you are all doing well my friends i miss you im so sorry i havent been on much recently #well i have been on. im here every day. i never leave. but i havent really said much #mostly because of work and exams and things :-/ im almost finished though!!! a few more weeks and im Fwee......bachelor ned......wahoo :-D #not quite yet though. in the meantime i shall continue to draw tervises with great gusto

there’s no way i’m actually watching a youtube video on how to right click with the touchpad like a grandma what

#i’ve been using this really really heavy and pretty old windows laptop ever since the mac one lost its life when i was in 8th grade a few #yearsago.but my dad recently got a new one for his work so he decided to give me his older but still relatively new and cool version of thi #portable device and guess what. they don’t have that section on the touchpad like it’s ALL SMOOTH. #and i haven’t been able to figure out how to save images from google or do anything i used to do with tht right click thingy help #my little sister has been using mac so she’s probably used to it but look at me now. absolutely STRUGGLING #they don’t make things like my beloved very old and heavy and inconvenient for travel but also very indestructible laptop anymore *sighs* #(no but seriously. i dropped that accidentally in class one day and it was ALL GOOD. imagine if it was one of the newest model 😭) #my old laptop i will always love you though <3 #nadirants

The different parts of Gotham War not lining up at all in terms of plot, character motivation and characterization is bad enough, but now that DC is suddenly trying to explain when other titles like Detective Comics and Batman and Robin are taking place in relation to Gotham War it gets even worse because now all of these storylines make so much less sense too.

#Gotham War #Listing all the reasons why Gotham War and Ram V's Tec run don't fit together would be complicated #Because they are doing similar things with a similar cast of characters but in extremely different ways #And I don't have the energy to go through both storylines to get the details right #But Batman and Robin is simple #You can't have a cozy father-son-story and Bruce going insane and shoving all the parental responsibilities onto Dick #to be a brooding loner again taking place at the same time #Is the entire Batman and Robin book supposed to take place during the few days that Damian was the only one on Bruce's side in GW #Before Bruce abandoned Damian? #Because unlike when Death in the Family happened you can't even use the excuse that Damian changed his mind #And decided to stay with Bruce even though dinf ended with everyone including Dami not showing up at the talk Bruce wanted to have with the #Which was what they did in B&R 2011 #Because back then it was the family that decided they didn't want to work with Bruce anymore #In GW it's Bruce who tells them to leave him alone #He very explicitly abandons Damian despite the fact that Damian didn't betray him and stayed loyal #So this time Damian can hardly change his mind and decide to stick by Bruce because it's Bruce who rejected him #I'm still so confused by Zdarsky putting that in the story in the first place because he clearly has very little interest in Damian #Out of all the male Robins he played the smallest part in this #It probably would have been better for B&R if Damian had been somehow absent for Gotham War like in a lot of previous batfam events #And left the time B&R takes place unspecified #So that it just takes place in its own bubble #I'm usually all for DC telling us how things fit together but for that to be good things need to actually line up #And not outright contradict each other

There is nothing wrong with criticizing or disliking a comic ...but please I’m begging make your own post or comment on posts that are... there’s no need to add those things to people’s edits, art, or other creations. 

#i have put in my tags a few times too like i know it's bad but i liked the art so i edited it #but people still do it #i just don't think getting out your frustrations using a post someone worked hard to make #is a very nice thing to do personally #and surprisingly im not even posting this cause of one of my edits though i have gotten this before #i saw someone do this to someone else's edit #and they were unnecessarily rude #like man this character is a flop and he'll be cancelled in x amount of issues #how do people not realize how rude things like that are #venting

the amount of surprised pika “wait people actually shave their arms?” comments on posts about body hair are so funny like I unironically am so happy for you that you weren’t laughed at by a classmate for having hairy arms “like a man” in like 4th grade this is why I wish body hair conversations would stop centering around armpit hair

#okay that’s the tldr but the way I actually remember it is that the classmate (a boy) pointed out my arm hair and ask why so hairy #and I genuinely was so confused I was just like idk??? and then later at home that day I asked my mom about it and she was like #It’s bc your dads side of the family is hairy so then I later talked to that guy again like ‘I take after my dad’ or whatever #And /then/ is when he laughed and was like ‘but you’re a girl’ about it #Granted I’m non-binary but like I didn’t know that in elementary #Plus I didn’t stop shaving until around mid 2010s and was still self conscious about it for years #Like I remember feeling embarrassed during college (2018ish) if I had to use the rest room and someone else was in there when I would roll #My sleeves up to wash my hands #Anyways I eventually stopped caring about it sometime within the last year or 2 but see how long that took? It really shouldnt #Like some of us just genetically have more darker thicker visible body hair than others and we shouldn’t be shamed for it #One thing at a time though because even I’m still working through leg hair shame #I don’t shave them anymore but I also haven’t worn shorts outside of my bedroom in years #I’ll literally switch into shorts if it’s too hot right before bed and switch back into pants before stepping out of my room in the morning #I’ve been feeling cute the past few days and it’s starting to warm up again plus also had a convo w mom recently so #I might change that soon but only within the house still bc baby steps <3 #Anyways I’m just rambling now so I should stop. Good night !!
