GENOVEMBER Day 2: Crayons! I challenged myself to use a medium I couldn't erase, and a pose I wasn't sure I could do well without erasing.

#geno #geno smrpg #genovember #super mario rpg #smrpg #my art #wow are crayons unforgiving when you're a perfectionist #so glad I have a wonderful lil muse who I love looking at art of #imperfect or not he's still perfect

it feels cosmically unfair that i think about writing all the time want to write all the time and sit down to write all the time and i come up with two sentences at best. there should be some reward system i think

#RAAAAAAAAAA #the thing is i know why i'm stuck it's because i get overly wrapped up in meaningless details of word choice and sentence structure #and i need every word to be perfect before i can move on to the next and that just creates an interminable cycle of being so slow to #progress i feel like even more like a failure and imperfect and respond by being even more intense about it #in spite of the fact that almost no reader is going to look at my work and go hey nice i noticed you used a word with an aesthetically #pleasing number of letters here as opposed to a word ending in t which would have ruined the flow and disgusted me forever #but it's not about the readers i'm the one who reads it and gets disgusted forever #and i know this does not matter but it feels like there is no conceivable way i could write something without it being perfect first try #fucking hilariously i edited the tags of this post for a good ten minutes because the spacing of the words was bothering me so i had to #find words with different lengths as replacements #RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA #anyway i'm doing wonderfully #this is about soulmate au i think maybe because it's so important to me i'm especially perfectionistic over it right now #brain can you stop it i'm on my hands and knees #also t is the worst letter invented hands down. no question.

Ponee (It is half 3 in the morning)

#hey she didn't actually come out too bad! #I didn't show the last time I tried to draw Sunny but it didn't look great ehe ^^; #I think Ponies are gonna have to be a digital art only thing for now cause I had the select and drag so many elements of this #to make this look right sahsdhdshsdh #Yeah despite liking ponies since I've became a conscious thing I never drew them a bunch #and well. that's because I didn't start drawing properly until I was like. 11 years old. and I was super into something else then ehe ^^; #Sorry to get personal in the tags of an mlp art thing but I do think about how I always wanted to draw but like. #I was such a chronic perfectionist as a little little kid??? I HATED everything I tried to make XD #It makes me a little sad yknow? cause like. most kids don't give a shit they just draw whatever and it's beautiful and amazing #it makes me sad that I didn't allow myself to have that! I worked backwards IG lmao #little 6 year old hating everything she tried to make for not being perfect to me now where I love when my art is full of imperfections #that's the point of art!!! Have fun!!! It doesn't need to be perfect or even “good”! #because art is about expression yknow? and drawing stuff you like! #sorry this only took like an hour this should be on a more high-effort drawing sdhdhdshsd #Also um hi to the person who followed me for MLP G5 art?? I mostly post about puters and Ultrakill and Rain World here #But I do really love ponies I need to draw them more often XD #this is my whatever blog. I post whatever interests me here hehe #MLP #MLP G5 #Android Arts #Android.txt

favorite part of the hermitcraft auction is grian criticizing his own pottery in the description of the listings

#he's so relatable.......... #'this one's okay but it's a little heavy at the bottom' girl me too #it is good that he's upfront about the imperfections of each piece but it's still really funny #pottery makes a perfectionist out of everyone #hermitcraft #not art

Feeling enough is a luxury in the world that showcasing perfection

It might seem like a bare minimum,

a self-defeating decision,

even tho it might be the only way to remain more or less sane...

Yes,

To live normalizing imperfections...

Seeing beauty in them,

Not judging others for having them,

And ultimately, not hating ourselves for having them...

We are all perfectly imperfect after all.

Sauron sketch I won't finish

I needed an excuse to use the symmetry tool in krita and who better than Sauron for that

#Im back into the digital art game tra tra #sauron #the silmarillion #the silm fandom #lotr #my art #theres so much of this i would change #whatever kill the voice inside you that tells you you are cringe for having fun #kill the perfectionist kill the sauron embrace the beauty of imperfection

For my birthday I am being so incredibly mean to Franziska von Karma

#wordy wendy #im just having fun with this fill and writing it to my own perfectionist standards #instead of following my own rules and making it short and imperfect #and im having so much more funcjskdkfk

[thyandrawrites]

Attempting to design an amigurumi chibi and one of his hips is at a shaper angle than the other nfndjsk I accidentally gave him scoliosis

#Why do I keep inflicting harm on my stuffed toys bdbwhsj #First the crying bunny now this #It's barely noticeable tbf but I am a perfectionist and knowing that imperfection is there bothers me #Will I frog half of this and remake it? Very likely #All for a... What? 2 mm shift? #I am insane yes in case you were wondering #Maybe I'll just sleep on it and tomorrow I'll hate this significantly less lol #Happened for the hair of my last doll #Thyandra.txt #Anyway guys I know I keep posting about crochet but if this is annoying I'm gonna keep it to a minimum #It's just a new hobby that's completely eaten all my focus rn #You don't wanna know how many anime plushies I'm going to make #.... Trust me

Do I know what I'm doing? Maybe? Am I going to do it anyway? Absolutely! Am I prepared to fail? Most definitely.

Regulus is the person to do the group project entirely on his own, because he knows only he can do it the way he wants it to be done.

Regulus is also the person to be absolutely seething because he did the group project entirely on his own.

Have his friends done their parts? Yes, yes they have. But he changed all of them, because they weren't right. And then he spent hours on extra material, and the visual side of the project. Does the visual side have an effect on the grade? No, no it doesn't. But Barty's handwriting was wobbly, and Regulus would never turn in something that could be described as wobbly. So he copied the text in his own careful cursive. And changed it some more while he was at it. The night before the deadline, in Regulus' head all of his friends turn into enemies. He wants to scream at them for not doing enough, and leaving him to deal with all their shitty work.

But it's not their fault, he knows that. They didn't do anything wrong. The desperate need for perfection is him, and he doesn't want to make them do all that extra work just to please the irrational part of his brain, that tells him his work need to be perfect. It's not what a good person would do. But than, do good people struggle so much to be good? He struggles so much, trying not to say something that will be unforgivable. He tries really hard not to turn into his mother.

So he just stares at them, keeping his awful, irrational anger on a tight leash.

It scares him, just how alike his parents he can be. The internal need to be as cruel as needed, as long as the results are satisfying. He tries to only ever do that to himself, but the anger he feels at the smallest mistakes is overwhelming.

All that over stupid group projects.

Regulus despises group projects.

#so um yeah #this was originally going to be only those two first lines #but #the rest idk #it just came to me #so #here it is #Regulus is such a perfectionist in my head #he CANNOT stand when something could be done better #it makes him a bit mean sometimes #(am I projecting? noooo) #and he knows that part of it is just walburga #and her insane expectations #but now it's also him #and he doesn't know how to not let other parts of walburga fuse with him #and he hates the person he becomes when he sees imperfection #but he CANNOT help it #he just clenches his teeth #and tries to stay silent #but the eyes he looks at people with when that happens are exactly like walburga's #pure disdain #it's a part of the reason why Sirius stops looking at Regulus altogether #regulus black #marauders #regulus angst #regulus headcanon #headcanon #black brothers angst #sirius black #black brothers
