#the colors other colors are made of

[tj-crochets]

Your Postcards from Sweden quilt is amazing, that must have been a lot of work but so worth it!!! Just out of curiosity (don't have the funds for a kit right now, but window shopping) a lot of the kits come with a bunch of fat quarters plus a 3/8 yard of fabric, any idea what that 3/8 yard is for? Maybe binding? It seems like too little for a backing. Also the purple on the back of yours is such the perfect color. Thanks for reading!

Thanks! The 3/8ths is because one color has more triangles than the rest. I think it's a shade of purple, if I remember correctly? The pattern I used called for the wrong number of triangles of one color, and I ended up substituting a few other triangles, but it was pretty easy to substitute.

The kit I used didn't come with binding, backing, or batting. I can't remember which purple fabric I used, but I gotta say I like the purple as a neutral backing color a lot more than the solid dark gray I used for my other rainbow quilt

#ask away! #idk why but I think the neutrals for rainbows are purple and orange #maybe some shades of green but it depends #red yellow and blue don't read as neutral to me #did not realize until I listed them like that that it's...dang it what are they called. I feel like prime colors is not correct #the colors other colors are made of #maybe I like the purple orange or blue as backing because they are the product of two colors? so they go with more of the rainbow???? #idk most of my color choices have no reasoning behind them I can fathom #I just look at the fabrics and go 'yep that looks right' or 'oh no it's not right at all'

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

inhales I really like this color combo but not sure if I'm going with it haha

#wip #like the colors as a whole with the other 2 feels like a LOT hhaha #if I put more pink it might work?? we'll see #also all the tags yelling about squids and bigfins on the other wip made me giggle mdhjfgdjg

do you think freesia and jd would ever get back together? or will they stay sort-of friends?

I'm not going to lie, I kinda like the idea of them starting to date again and seeing where it takes them. 🙈 freesia sneaked into my heart for some reason (she kind of started this new trend of mine where i make ocs that were created to be dicks and then me just getting protective of them and trying to reason out their awful behavior kasjsdj)

also their ship already has a #1 hater and #1 supporter, both of which are doing it for the wrong reasons...

#bruce and clay join the fandom once floyd sends them letters saying he's been eating good ksjbhbfchf #trolls #dreamworks trolls #trolls floyd #trolls branch #trolls john dory #freesia #trolls band together #this was a lot funnier in my head. i guess that's what you get when you don't lay down your panels from the start #my art #answered #freesia was all four of the brother's first crush (sorry i don't make the rules. it's just facts) #even floyd's who i headcanon is exclusively gay #jd and her started dating pretty young #and the other three had kid crushes on her because she was the big brothers cool girlfriend that made jd behave nice to them lmao #also almond and plum brownies <3 #floyd jd and branch all live in a sitcom in my head #it's beautiful #also i started coloring this and then i realized i actually DON'T want to spend another day on this when i can be drawing NEW comics

experimenting w making little trek dolls for the STLV craft swap :))

#sisko first bc idk how I'm gonna make hair LMAO but isn't he so cute?? #made the doll a while ago but I just made his little outfit today and yesterday :)) #hopefully giving them away for free means no one will mind the shoddy craftsmanship lmao #I think I've set a new record for terrible hand sewing. and there's raw edges on the inside. and none of the thread is the right color #but WHO CARES HES SO CUTE!!!! #it's the early ds9 uniform bc I've been watching voy and I'm sooo enamored with their uniforms ugh I need to make an actual life size one #watching voyager will have u saying things like. surely it can't be that hard to sew an invisible zipper?? #anyways. need to figure out how to make hair so I can make characters other than him and picard 💀💀 #ds9 #star trek #benjamin sisko #deep space nine #captain sisko #narcissus's echoes #narcissus plays dress up #(?)

Freeing myself from the shackles of an organized comic format to get this idea out of my head!! Also, just follow the numbers if the layout is too confusing otherwise, but basically I want Spectra to be Jazz's Nemesis so bad. It just makes sense.

SO: the hypothetical episode's showdown would be them battling, and no Danny, he's already got beef with a packers obsessed billionaire. Now, Spectra's got the high ground with overwhelming power, but she's sloppier and easily irritated because of it! Jazz then outsmarts her, getting her angry enough to make enough mistakes to be corned and canned by the thermos.

Also minor spelling error ugh, meant to put "no one could", not "no could".

#also mad kudos to ectoblastic for the idea of jazz and penni being friends (but particarly penni using her) !! i saw the tags and GASPED #also i will never draw danny the same way but i've selected the colors i will use for him until i die #first and last panel of spectra were my fav to draw because she looks feral and unhinged. as she should always be. #jazz: figures out “penni” spectra and her whole deal #spectra: and i took that personally #she fully means killing jazz btw she has SO much power right now and she is READY to use it #the brainrotsreal's art tag ✧˖°:*♡ #digital art #dp spectra #penelope spectra #spectra phantom #danny phantom fanart #jazz fenton #danny fenton fanart #danny fenton #LET SPECTRA AND JAZZ HAVE ETERNAL BEEF #THEY WERE MADE TO BE EACH OTHER'S NEMESIS #the way vlad is like a stronger/smarter/older verison of danny in terms of physical ghostly capabilities but selfish #and thus the way spectra is a stronger/smarter/older verison of jazz in terms of manipulation and pysch but selfish #DO YOU SEE THE VISION??????? #if anyone's reading the tags feel free to ask me about this idea PLEASE #I CAN RAMBLE FOR HOURS

#star wars #swedit #starwarsedit #leia organa #han solo #luke skywalker #*mine #*mygifs #so i actually only like leia's but ! i spent way too long on this edit not to post it #i wanted to put the scene where han says may the force be with you for his but he kept looking like way too orange and it was funky #also i made leia's first and it kind of looks too bright compared to the other two #but it's actually symbolism bc she's the light of my life and i am giving her a kiss on the forehead <3 #in retrospect i could've just made the edit black and white so it's sort of more coherent but i really liked the coloring for leia

whatever happens, please don’t break

#god not a fucking DAY goes by where i don’t think of that one interview and this quote #does anybody have it word for word? please? i’ll pay you #literally every single time i think about how kunikida as w character was MADE for dazai. specifically to share his suffering #i actually sob into my hands because that means they were both destined for tragedy together and the long dark road they will walk #will at least not be lonely. because they have each other. they are each other’s light in the darkness. #DO YOU UNDERSTAND #bro the fact that kunikida is painfully aware of the imperfection of the world and how he still continues to fight for his ideals #paralleling dazai who finds humanity beautiful but cannot become attached bc he feels alienated from emotion #THE WAY THEY COULD HELP EACH OTHER????? SICK SICK SICK I AM SICK #i love kunikidazai sm i wish more ppl could see the potential #but some of you aren’t ready for the sheer perfection of their dynamic #also i’ve noticed that i am only capable of drawing dazai properly when it’s with kunikida what’s up with that 💀 #and sorreyy i know their height difference isn’t THAT big but i didn’t realize until i was halfway into the coloring 😔💔 #osamu dazai #dazai osamu #kunikida doppo #doppo kunikida #kunikidazai #knkdz #kunizai #lotus draws

after reading @sixteenth-days's very lovely new fic chapter (go read here!) i just HAD to do a take on a flower husbands fusion design!

#flower husbands #smajor #solidaritygaming #gemcyt #mcyt #su #chris doodles #some fun design details/insights!: #it wouldve been pretty easy to make them another solid blue gem but #i wanted to go in a bit of a different direction with their design #flower agates are also typically pinkish/white and i wanted to translate that #it also makes flower agate feel like their own independent person #which is what happens when gems fuse anyways! #so i leaned more into the flowers part with the colors #i like to imagine it's also an expression of lapis and sapphire's love for each other #they express it by giving each other flowers and so their fusion #....looks like their love! #also the shoes are meant to be made of ice! #this keeps lapis's water element and gives flower agate the ability to skate/slide around #while not nessecarily giving them the full ability to fly #they can glide/float with the cape
