#it really adds to the realism

[formerprincewille]

I know people hate comparisons with yr and hs, but one thing I really appreciate about yr and what I think sets it apart from most other shows (including hs), is that none of the characters feel overly groomed or stylized. Except maybe August but that fits with his personality. All tv shows have a makeup , hair, and costume crew. A lot of thought of course goes into that. But something that is SO common in tv now are characters looking very “polished”. Even in hs, other than Darcy, it is common to see this. Hair and makeup done perfectly, outfits that are never worn more than once, etc. Young Royals isn’t like that. Outfits repeat. Hair looks natural and not overdone. The characters look like people you could see in your daily life. Like REAL people. The irony is that most of the characters in yr are rich as hell. You could actually excuse them walking around looking perfect. But you don’t see it. It’s very much a skamverse vibe. I wish more shows did this.

#young royals #this is NOT anti hs btw I love the show #but I would be lying if I said the characters don’t look like tv characters cuz they do #maybe it’s bc the show isn’t American or English but I for one really appreciate it #it really adds to the realism #yr is about the literal crown Prince of Sweden falling in love with a commoner boy #and yet it feels less like fantasy than a show about ‘regular’ high school kids

Self Portrait Sketch

Based on a photo and mirror reference, this is honestly the best self-portrait I've done to date.

#my art #self portrait #drawing of myself #semi realism #my new haircut really did help restore a lot of my confidence. Haha. #I drew this just as a reference for myself to see how to stylize my hair into my usual art style #but I was like ehhh I put too much effort might as well add some color too LOL #I tried to include my eyebrow scar but it may be hard to see...

writing a snzfic and realizing no one has sneezed in the last 500 words and scrolling anxiously up to find a place to fit a sneeze into the dialogue

#read as: i got really excited about this one scene and wrote the entire plot-pivotal conversation as if it were a vanilla fic T.T #why is that like... character interaction/relationship development and snz/h/c sometimes feel so closely entwined but sometimes #feel like they're mutually exclusive focuses that i have to juggle? #why can't this scene which i wanted to accomplish [redacted] also be about yves suffering... and does adding that back in only dilute the #scene i wrote or does it actually add to it... #the realism of this fic/the realism of the illness progression have gone out the window #and are now just subject to my (completely arbitrary) whims

I would do anything for even one more occult pack. 😔

#I know occult players are in the minority but man... #you guys get so many realism packs; I just want one more fun occult pack :( #I adore vampires and werewolves! I'd love another full occult-focused pack! #please I want fairies... 😭 #I also would have really loved for mermaids and aliens to have been the focus of their own packs instead of add-ons to other packs #but that's another day's complaint

Do you think i could change the world by going to blogs that were recently hit with anon hate and sending in an anon that just says ‘im sorry for sending in that hateful ask before. I was insecure and lashed out at you for no reason. Please forgive me’

#something along those lines #could really ham it up and add in more detail for realism #what do you think the real hater would do? say nuh uh that wasnt me? give up?

Gee Tuvok how come Star Trek lets you have TWO wives?

I think everyone who’s into Voyager should get to have their own little version of T’Pel, keep her in your pocket. Star Trek’s never gonna add anything about her character, it’s time to go nuts!

My little pocket T’Pel. Country girl I loooove you....

#the only thing you need for a canon T'pel design is that she's black that's all v_v #T'Pel #T'Pel art #I love how these two women give off completely different vibes...being married to them would be two completely different experiences #result in different children too!! #the T'Pelaverse.... #when I think of T'Pel I usually think of the T'Pel on the right...but they're both REALLY cute!!! #I've read all the 2 tuvok/t'pel fics not written by me and I love when they just add a little fact about T'Pel in there #like that she's a calligrapher or a dancer or she likes a certain flower #2 very different women here but both equally as cute and kissable!! #A detail from each I think is cute is Left T'Pel's brows sort of fade out towards the center #and Right T'Pel's lids are lil bit puffy!! #anyway....I hope more ppl think about T'Pel and design their own T'Pels and- #st voyager #st voyager art #when I write about T'Pel in my fics it's always gonna be about my little pocket T'Pel....what's she up to? #she has another arm I just didn't feel like drawing it - perks of having a cartoony style and no standard of realism #bea art tag

Master Comics #23

#I like that there’s that good amount of time spent on Junior checking to see if they’re really dead #I think that that adds to the realism/darker tone of Master Comics over Whiz Comics #I don’t think you’d be likely to see that from Captain Marvel #just him noticing that someone is dead in one panel #dc #fawcett comics #marvel family #freddy freeman #my posts #comic panels

(Kyleigh's POV)(Summary: Kyleigh married into the Collins family and began pumping out children yearly as soon as she said "I Do", so far they've got 10 children ages 9 and under)

(AN: Please laugh with me at how chaotic these pictures are, they truly explain the efforts to take in-game shots as well as the effort to have birthdays in a 12 person household.)

We recently celebrated Marigold's birthday! She's #7 in the lineup and it's been great watching her personality shine through and she grows up. We always try and do something with the birthday celebrant for them to have time with mum and dad, when they're young we take them to the park and have dinner at the big house where they're celebrated by their grandpa and grandma collins. When they're older they pick an activity that they want to do, and they get the option of picking a friend/sibling to join them for said activity with us.

She looks like I did when I was younger, as the children get older I always appreciate which parent they end up favouring as they grow into their features. For her birthday she wanted all her sisters at the park with her, so Chloe, Rose, Violet, and Daisy tagged along with us for our fun day out. She then had dinner with her grandparents as well as Barrett and I at the big house, whilst her siblings were home having dinner with Macie and Ashton. We want the children to have that individual bond with us as well as with their grandparents.

In other news, something in me told me to take a pregnancy test which turned out positive! When we told the kids that baby 11 was on its way they were over the moon! Hearing them pray for another sibling makes my soul sing, it's important to Barrett and I that we inculcate a true love of life to in our children's' hearts, so that they can grow and have a heart for children when they're adults. After having little Jefferson, I did struggle with some baby blues, but with the news of this new baby I'm absolutely over the moon (AN: Dear reader, DO NOT use this plan of action with any kind of mental health issues. Kyleigh is a bunch of pixels controlled by me who feels nothing. If you recognise that you require assistance in feeling better, please contact your medical provider. 💚)

Pictured: Benji and Violet, Daisy is pictured on the left taking out the trash

Having kids at different ages means there's 4 things happening at once, we had Rose fracture her arm whilst playing at the park a few weeks ago. It's healed now, but having to keep someone as active as Rose away from the jungle gym was much harder than I expected. We've got 5 kids who are actively missing teeth, we don't do the tooth fairy nonsense though the kids aren't getting any 'magical money'. Benji and Violet were the most recent to lose one front tooth each, Benji bit into an apple and lost his whilst Violet pulled her wobbly tooth out herself! The kids have taken to taking selfies/pictures/videos to send to my parents since they live further away and don't see them as much.

Smth that i noticed is that a lot of ppl say that it’s weird to like Kurt, and a lot of ppl say that he is COMPLETELY based on Elliot Rodger, I did some research and he is loosely based on him (for example his apology video on his instagram, the fact that most of his videos are him wearing sunglasses in his car etc.), but the whole movie has a different meaning and he has different motives than Elliot, Kurt is an attention-seeker, Elliot was an Incel. Also in an interview, Eugene Kotlyarenko said that the movie is also loosely based on an Uber driver that went on a killing rampage (the case of Jason Dalton). So I’d say that it’s fine to like Kurt as long as you don’t condemn his actions and are able to distinguish reality and fiction!

The writers certainly did take inspiration from elliot rogers and other real life losers. But none of us condone any of their actions. And none of us feel anything but disgust for the real criminals the writers took inspiration from. Kurt’s a fictional guy who is portrayed by someone really likable (and attractive).

I agree with you, as long as no one seriously supports Kurt’s actions, there’s nothing wrong with liking him. It’s just like liking a villain in other pieces of media.

#ask #I do see some people really question why other people like Kurt #I blame the movie for making his crimes so realistic #like because it isn’t far fetched that someone would kill for attention #so it adds an extra layer of realism on it

Gomorrah is interesting and I like how the many characters in the show make decisions based on a mix of human error, anger, blind loyalty and arrogance which leads to the consequences of their actions which then creates tension and conflict. Said tension and conflict then develops its characters and plot.

#in the advertising of the show sbs billed it as ‘Italy’s breaking bad’ #I have not seen breaking bad. but I am willing to agree that yes this show has genuine quality to it #Italian crime dramas are on a different level. like. they’re their OWN category #the use of sets and on location very much adds to the realism #(at least that I assume it’s all on set and on location. there’s probably green screen here and there but it’s really hard to take notice) #like if it is green screen. it’s not obvious that it’s green screen #also it’s music does such a good job of instilling a specific emotional feeling depending on what’s happening on screen #side note: the main protagonist is the absolute worst person ever #like actually he’s the worst. his actions literally lead to specific events occurring in season 1

Something I've noticed, but: yuri manga don't last very long, do they?

#the disappoint i felt when i realized that #most of the works i've come across are only. like. 3-4 volumes long #and 9 out of 10 times they're the obligatory high school/college/OL modern settings #not really that many that add a dash of fantasy or supernatural element to them #i mean there's murcielago but it's not something that would interest me #and AFAIK the executioner and her way of life is still ongoing but i can't for the life of me remember if it has a manga #i'm actually curious as to why most of these manga are so short #b/c idk if it's an intentional decision or an editorial thing or what #altho TBF idk how much story you can wring out of a manga/LN/whatever that's set in the modern day #and HAS little to no magical realism element to push it along #you don't want to drag it out & hard reset it like RAG but you don't want it to overstay its welcome #idk i had sleep anxiety last night and went skimming for works and saw how LOW the chapter counts are #idk maybe i'm just being fussy #but i think what i really want is a long-running yuri series that doesn't get axed #or fucked with by the suits even after crossing the finish line b/c 'this isn't canon it's oPeN tO iNteRprEtATiOn LOL' #yuri

hi i just wanted to say i love your art so much, especially the pieces with really deep backgrounds where you add haze/blur to the farthest structures which gives the entire piece just a touch of realism while maintaining a pixel art style

do you have a shop?

thank you so much! 🙏 here is a print shop
