Drew Circe in the viral sexy dress because i just had to.. anyway, *scrams*

#art dumpster fire tag. #added the overlay just because i think its neat B) #my shading sucks ass #and theres a few things i'm not happy with #but the first rule of art is making others suffer #so you will look at this

[satyr-hole]

Keen for one of those kisses 😚

Ask and ye shall receive

#answered #lighting sucks because I have a shade nook on my couch and I can’t be assed to get up

DJ Dude

Bigger drawing under cut just because i don't wanna subject people to "do you like the colors of the DJ Music Man"

Yassifying unsuspecting men is my passion

The bad quality is due to this being drawn on roblox free draw

#patchy draws #fnaf djmm #dj music man #tw spiders #<- just in case #this isn't really a humanization or a gijinka because i gave him a spider ass and 4 arms and 8 eyes. as one does. #but you can't see all 8 because the quality of roblox art sucks unfortunately #i kept the piano teeth because i like them #and he's roughly the same size too because. why not. #roblox free draw #that is also why i didn't shade it because it was already lagging me #sorry for making him more spider #it will happen again

one of these days i'm going to write up all that i've changed from azzarello's bullshit era and the one (1) piece i've kept from milligan (and also changed) and the only thing currently stopping me is that it is going to be so, so inside-baseball incomprehensible. and i almost never want to go reading/screencapping azzarello and milligan to add references but i Want to add references.

canon is goop, just know that we continue to ride the bus down "hellblazer ended at #250 and looks like swiss cheese before that" street.

#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS. #i'm doing page maintenance before i fuck off to work rip it's got me thinking #anyway i think i said WAY back on this blog that a side goal of mine is to make hellblazer lore accessible to non-comic readers where i can #bc it's such a Heavy comic & i love it so much & i always felt Terrible recommending it to people only for them to be disgusted #and like. @ past me that particular goal is NOT as easy as you thought it would be lmao #esp because i have a habit of getting VERY detail-oriented when it comes to talking about hellblazer i think #but by GOD it's still a goal. i can put in some motherfucking references here and there when i talk about The Lore #like. azzarello's writing style never translates well for me in synopsis bc he Loves to put the audience in the outside perspective #where we are bystanders/with the rest of the bystanders to constantine's actions and not to his motivations/inner monologue #and i HATE that. hellblazer has ALWAYS been about what this guy has going on underneath the masked exterior #all the things you can't say out loud when you're queer and working class trying to survive in 70s-80s-90s england #but that you FEEL with your WHOLE fucking chest. how that feeling drives you to enjoy little rebellions wherever you can get them #(also azzarello just fucking Sucks LMAO but i'm talking style rn) #so i end up relying on frusin's art to tell the story a little more bc i think he understands the Theatre of constantine's public persona #and when that theatre is Absent then it's really REALLY noticeable. so frusin keeps me in it most of the time #and if i'm digging into frusin art then i'm Going to want to compare it to older panels bc i like body language consistency #milligan on the other hand has NOTHING to save his sorry ass bc his writing is drop-jaw fucking terrible AND the artist seems to like it #but the loss of john's thumb being tied to his mental health (ignoring the bullshit with shade) has always felt. important to me somehow id #anyway MUCH thinking about my favorite loser on this about-to-be-annoying day shdjksd he has been done so dirty #hellblazer brain go brrrr

[no-light-left-on]

wanted to paint some skin

#dishonored #the outsider #ert #yeah thats about it #watercolour #this paper sucks major ass it bled like crazy and for why? #a lot of the blushing just kinda disappeared because the shading bled #anyways that much to the complaining now enjoy my boy I gave him freckles

You know I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel for extra credit in my assignments when I’m trying to pass-off my fursona as some kind of clever marketing strategy

#should I nix it or should I keep it #the actual logo I came up with for this assignment sucks. #this is what happens when you don't have a unique selling point and your online persona is just. you. and you make. art of normal humans #girl help I aint got a brand and this module is all about selling your brand lkdsgjsk #I can't use my characters on business cards and shit because they all just people! they'll think that's meant to be me or something! #my ''I'll figure it out later'' approach to my artistic identity is biting me in the ass right here and now #my prof came over too see my work and said it's very steven universe esque and my soul left my fucking body #now. I love steven universe forever and always. but lord almighty I need a new brand image #personally I was going for Collector(toh)core but heuegjewg #I don't want that to be My Thing but it's all I can currently think of without putting an unnecessary amount of effort into a uni assignment #stars and pastels and flat shading because it's easy babeyy

[nick-close]

My half of an art trade with @soundskies !!!!

#the background sucked ass tbh but #I liked the actual piece #I like it without shading the most cuz I’m lame #it was fun to draw!! #this design is super cool #<3 #my art #fanart #dndads s2 #dndads #dungeons and daddies

[ghoul-haunted]

anyway I'm soooo normal* about asscreed and I definitely dont constantly feel a sad sense of loss over how I'll likely never experience the same wild enthusiasm or passion for a franchise story like I did with asscreed, but god I am glad I was there for it's height because there was nothing else like it

*this is a lie

#'it's still popular now' it sucks. its sludge. literally its nothing. you give up 60 hours of your life and come away from it #feeling exactly the way you did at the start because it's just money grabbing junk with no passion and no story to tell #functionally it MUST remain stagnant because of it's narrative structure so you will never experience a forward moving AC story again #AND IF THEY DO END UP DOING SOMETHING COOL IS SUCH VISUAL GARBAGE THAT ITS NOT EVEN WORTH IT #DID YOU EVEN BOTHER TO HIRE A COMPETENT ART DIRECTOR FOR MIRAGE? WHAT'S WITH THIS RACIST ASS BROWN #DESERT FILTER YOU LAZY FUCKS. THERE'S NO VISUAL DEPTH. what incompetent hackery #who shades with grey overlays anymore. jesus christ. go back to art school. i cant believe you charged full price for this

Unrelated but I was thinking about Koschei for reasons (I was reading about proto indo European pantheon and it turns out 'Fire God formed in water' is a myth researchers think they mightve had and it remonded me of Vassa) and am I allowed to say how funny it is that like, Koschei is so directly named after a myth. Like Bone Carvers his own thing and Stryga is technically got like The Three Fates/The Witch in Hansel and Gretel vibes, and then there's Koschei who is basically just the guy from the myth including the title. ALSO protoindoeuropean pantheon speculation is dope BTW you should research it its fascinating

Bold of you to assume I haven’t already researched it. I fucking loved anything protoindoeuropean as a kid, the folklore FUCKS

Anyways, personally I would’ve loved it if SJM combined Lanthys and Koschei together into one character. I think (no shade to ACOSF and it’s enthusiasts) instead of the rehab/whatever plot we got, we could’ve gotten to see a little brief corruption arc w Nesta and Koschei

Cuz like imagine a story where this deathless death god found out about cauldrongate and was like psychologically manipulating Nesta into gathering all of the troves (his soul bits) so that she could 1) become his queen/weapon, 2) make him all powerful, and 3) become a literal shield for him because the gang would have to kill her to kill him

(gonna unprofessionally ramble in the tags because I need to brainstorm about this lol)

#this probably sucks ass but I genuinely love the Koschei the Deathless myths sauuur much #like how fucking dare you throw him in there casually #anyways I need to work out the wrinkles in this hmmm #I know I’m bomb at pitching stories but there’s stuff missing and I need to work it out yknow #but yeah drop the mortal queen who’s evil thing cuz honestly who gives a fuck #also no shade to the rehab thing it was v relatable but also clearly a background for super sex #it could’ve been set up in the christmas special too #like oooo look something’s weird with nesta what could it be #and then also instead of there being too much free time for cassian to come off as an asshole #maybe he’s like trying to get thru to her or something #maybe it could be a literal retelling of the koschei story where the guy fucks his ass up for his lover #yeah that’s good see I just need to brainstorm in live time #sjm critical #THIS ISNT ABOUT HER I SWEAR IM JUST PITCHING #also also you could tie in nesta’s grooming for grooming #like in a sick way this is what she was raised to do #her wacky grandmother who def existed to make her story more sad laid the foundation for this #and now she has to like break that cycle and reaffirm that NO she doesn’t need to exist for old men #she deserves something better and epic #idk man I’m going crazy sorry

‘‘Oh, my love.’‘

when blorbos in love (<- is melting)

#incombustibleshipping #once again i provide the fluff #he's not bashful for once he's actually embracing the touch #i need you to understand how i made this drawing #there is no base layer of colour it was straight up shading from the start #also hands suck ass #pokemon #pokeani #pokemon steven #steven stone #pokemon alain #they're in love your honour and im melting #the one thing i love about my blorbos is that both their hands are verry recognizable
