#just trying to get good angles

[eggwishing]

messing around with lineart

#all the stuff ive been doing is like . boom done #bc this one brush i have is soooo good i can get some amazing line weight by just pressing down the tiniest bit #but i was using a diff brush and trying to be much more intentional here with the lines #it took longer than what im used to but produced a nice result i think #dave strider #homestuck #i forgot your belly button . im so sorry my boy #ALSOOOO ive found smn that realyhelps me with drawing hips #like. joinign the thigh to the hip itself #i just draw a 2d rectangle at the angle im tryna get the hips to face #it really helps me visualize the pose better #also im happy with how the folds on the clothes came out ^_^ i've been studying ..

[smallidarity]

y’know generally i try to limit colour palettes to as few colours as possible to make things more cohesive but despite my best efforts only jay ended up being able to stick to that </3

ANYWAYS here’s the as-of-right-now fully updated designs for these dickheads. these will no doubt undergo even more tweaking as i draw them more but this is a start i guess. also pls open the pictures to look at them properly i worked so hard LOL

some random notes under the cut yaaaay

chip —

he jingles when he walks. somehow he’s still stealthy. i do not know how

kept the platinum ring that bonded him to gillion in the block! because hey he doesn’t really have a reason to take it off (and it’s a nice reminder of how much gill cares about him, and how far their friendship has come since that ice arena)

his tattoos shift and flicker like actual flames, and sometimes (harmless, purely aesthetic) sparks fly off them when he’s excited

i just think smoke coming out of his mouth when he’s angry would be cool :]

chipped teeth from biting rocks and coins all the time :/

he has scars from the red lightning, they’re just mostly contained to his back and shoulders. they’re a similar red to his coat even once they’ve healed

gillion —

the tail sleeve thing is so he can rest it on the ground without damaging his scales, he doesn’t usually wear it when he’s just on the ship because the wood is soft enough that it’s usually fine + it can hinder swimming a bit. it’s mostly meant for places where there’s cobblestone or gravel streets and such. i think his armour would probably have a version that looks similar but covers the whole tail minus the fins, maybe with some armour plating of its own. i didn’t draw it because there wasn’t any room lol

his scars from the lightning are pink mostly because red stood out too much tbh. they softly glow in the dark the same as his coral and the pink parts of his fins

also kept his ring! his hands aren’t really made for jewellery, though, because the webbing means it won’t sit very secure on his finger. so he keeps it on the same chain as the necklace he got from aslana to keep it safe

tried to make him look a bit bulkier and more his age than in my original design? i feel like i was leaning too much into the naivety and. shortness. originally lol. he also has thicker eyebrows now and i’m still trying to decide how i feel about them but i think? i like it? i don’t tend to give many character thin eyebrows so it could’ve been a unique thing for him but alas

i think i made the sword too small but like ignore that

also forgor to include pretzel </3 that’s okay though she can get her own design sheet later. she’s special like that

jay —

i believe in tall jay supremacy

blue magic! i was considering gold but that’d look a bit more like a canary than i wanted for her wings so. blue jay :]

her hair is supposed to look kinda like fire to mimic her dad ! kinda showing that even if she runs from her family and the navy they’ll always be a part of her. and also i just like drawing messy hair

i gave her sturdier gloves just because i feel like it fits her better. also changed up the shirt to more of a button up solely because i don’t like tank tops very much LOL

i did WANT to make her outfit a bit flashier to match the boys better but i couldn’t quite figure out where to Put the flash. maybe that’ll come later, the way the story’s going i might get to design some cool prosthetics for her or something

overall —

because there’s just so many fucking colours i triiied to add at least one or two colours from each of them into the others designs. jay has her necklace with each of their main colours on it, her wings are the same blue as gillions eyes, her jacket and right eye are the same dark blue as destiny’s blade, her hair is the same orange as the lighter part of chips tattoos. chip has a dark green sash under all the belts, the same as the hilt of destiny’s blade. they all use the same shades of black, gold, and brown

the only real exception is gillion doesn’t have anything from the other two because he has Such a specific colour palette and he already had so much going on as-is orz jay was obviously the easiest to do this with because she has both warm and cool colours in her palette by default lol (and i did her design last, so that helps)

#.png #jrwi #jrwi riptide #just roll with it #jrwi chip #gillion tidestrider #jay ferin #jrwi spoilers #THEYRE FINALLY DONE zoo wee mama #the lines are thicker on the little armour drawings because i did the sketch thing and then went yk what. good enough. and just coloured tha #also got rid of gills button nose it was too annoying to draw #i’m so used to straight and aquiline noses #another thing that could’ve been unique for him in terms of my character designs #but nah #pls ignore that i drew them all standing on diff planes/angles btw i wasn’t trying very hard w that #weirdly proud of myself for managing to give them all pretty unique profiles #that’s normally something i kinda get stuck on. drawing people from the side #in different ways besides nose shape

the hour was indeed late and not one of them wanted to move. both got a neck pain the next morning.

so um yeah au, they work together for whatever reason. Corvo gets an extra couch for his working office bc napping in chairs leaves Daud miserable (he was "fine" with chairs. back pain is just really distracting when you're crouching in the exact same pose for hours, trying to get information). sometimes Corvo naps there too. sometimes they both happen to be too tired to walk to their room/base and whatever this is happens.

(it's "there was only one bed" thingy but make it couch)

#tarantino's dialog in action #i'm just trying to give some context okay! i ain't good at it but that's another story #tired people being tired is my jam #dishonored #daud #corvo attano #angle for daud's face was interesting. didn't get it a first few times #art tag

For everyone who wanted bullfighter Nando when I mentioned it the other day, here you go :D

+ this one I don't feel like coloring yet(imagine he's in Ferrari colors!!!)

#did you know bullfighters dedicate their kill to a friend or member of the public by giving them their hat? #i really wanted to draw silly vettonso where fernando offers seb his hat #seb retires from bullfighting(yeah its an au now) and fernando in his green costume is like; #'here is my hat. now will you come back from retirement? 🥺' #but yeah feel very abnormal abt that ^ and also the thing abt them having someone who helps them get into their costume as a sacred ritual #theres just a lot of thoughts and ideas floating around in my head bcs of it #anyways i liked drawing this but it was very suffering too and took me like 5 hours #its like. you see the intricate embroidery and im like ah! omg! i love painting details!!! #and then remember im not the best w coming up with ideas for the embroidery pattern itself #so pls bear with me 😭😭 mainly i was trying to reference the diamond logo of renault #but most of it kinda just ended up being austrian knots i guess bcs thats what my mind defaults to #i thought the shoulder pad would be the most difficult but that came together the easiest and made the rest actually work in my head #aaahhh also im surprised w the angle of his face! im usually not good at side profiles as well as tilted down heads #but i think he looks pretty good honestly??? #also w the sketch i just wanted to post it bcs i liked his face okay 😭😭😭 #i wanted to paint it too but I realized im so naive thinking i could paint two of these horrifically detailed things in one session #but his face 🥹🥹 i like it!!! theres some renault era pic of him i really like where hes sun drenched and angry looking #^ and i think i captured the vibe well so!!!!! #well anyways mayhe ill draw more of this. it was fun but also like sucked my life force out bcs it kept going from easy to 'I CANT DO THIS' #the pictures of matadors are just...insane to me. tiny waist fat ass flamboyant costume. im dead 🫠 #f1 #formula 1 #fernando alonso #catie.art. #fa14 #matador au

fucking Got Him

#this picture I took is insane like he’s just taller than me I was trying to get a good angle #why does it look like I equipped him from my hot bar #ultrakill #gabriel ultrakill #.txt

[cecilogical]

A sketch of Vestige from the latest mirror scene!! From 'Enter, Pursued by a Buck' (which is such a good story and honestly had been life-altering (to me)) which is by @sharkdukes

#fighting for my life trying to draw on paper (my tablet is broken and i do. not want to draw with a mouse rn) #traditional art #hazbin hotel oc #enter pursued by a buck #i. completely forgot the freckles and would like to alter some parts but i like this angle/already semi-corrected the picture. (in pain) #might just wait for when i get a new tablet to redraw this tbh #.... Also sort of just had fun with the hair. im not very good at drawing 100% straight hair. #@_@)..... posting this... I feel anxious....

[glacierbash]

Ugh. Girls about to kiss. Hate it.

#trying to remember to practice posing more. and also getting out of my #’must look good from all angles.’ it’s a good habit! but it makes my inspiration a bit fickle #I’d rather it look good from just one angle and exist. rather than be good in all angles and be in my head #oc: iverelle vauvenelle #love these two. unfortunately.

i think it would be very funny if lime kept stealing all of mochis side quests because he thinks theyre fun even though he doesnt need any of the rewards and everyone is pissed because they could actually use the things she gives in exchange but lime keeps fucking taking all the side quest resources before anyone has a chance to report back

#mochi standing in the hall with the little blue checkmark #(bring me 3 red angle frogs and an empty snapple bottle and i can trade you 5 cafe cakes) #or (deliver these goods to the homeroom teacher in exchange for exam hints) #no one knows how or why she has these things and the mob spell prevents people from questioning it #and when you go look for angel frogs lime is like (haha idiot i already got them all LMAO) #mochi after lime completes the 5th side quest for that day: dont you think you should save some side quests for everyone else-- #lime: you got your frogs didnt you? what do you care who gets them for you? #mochi: i feel bad.. #lime just doesnt like when too many guys start doing her side quests #none of it is romantic but he doesnt like it anyway #and then his fangirls start getting mad too #them @ mochi: no side quests today??? how am i supposed to get you to give this to lime?! #mochi: try again tomorrow i guess...? #its like a multiplayer game where every side quest is a free for all #limes the type to play a game to completion. do all the possible side quests

#ralts #when i see this guy i always think about wally's fuckin 1% spawnrate or whatever ralts that he just gets first try #and that i had to run around in that grass for like Ever to get to spawn #and then i think about wally's battle theme in the remakes and it's okay again because it goes too hard for its own good #i thought about doing an angle where you could see ralts's eyes but i didn't go for it 'cause at that rate it was hardly even front-facing

I know I’ve seen it somewhere before (most likely here on tumblr) but i AM obsessed with the idea of a muppets version of good omens where the human characters are all played by muppets and aziraphale and crowley are played by humans who are very clearly controlling muppet versions of themselves as their corporations but the muppets only ever directly address the muppet corporations. as far as they can see aziraphale and crowley are also only muppets

moreover I am EXTRA obsessed with the idea that aziraphale and crowley. also keep up the muppeteering when alone with each other. their muppets are their corporations how they interact with the earth and they interact with each other while within these corporations. but when you can literally see their true (human) forms looming over their dinky little flesh (felt) bodies it adds a new level of hilarity

I cant tell which would be funnier: if, when talking to each other, they looked each other dead in the eyes while making their muppets also look at each other, or if they ALSO pretended the other was only a muppet and utterly ignored their true human forms

that being said I think for the drunk scene they should be slugging back actual glasses of wine in one hand and just very sloppily controlling their muppet selves with the other. the muppets have little fake glasses of wine too obvi

with tracy aziraphale just takes over as her muppeteer she just sometimes moves and talks on her own. all the other angels and demons are just humans but when on earth the angels have muppets and the demons have really shitty hand puppets. they just stand there holding the muppets/puppets they dont make them move and act. aziraphale and crowley are thought to be very weird and creepy for doing so with theirs

the horsepersons…. I think they start with muppets only but you can see there’s sticks or wires or whatever controlling their limbs. and them when they start to come into their power suddenly they’re being controlled by a person. and when they go full Horsepersons Of The Apocalypse they’re fully human (in form). except for death. death is identical to tv canon bc he’s the one who hides his true nature the least. and he’s creepier that way

with adam? I think he’s just an uncomfortably human looking muppet. his face is more normally proportioned. his felt is a very human beigey tan. his hands are uncomfortably dextrous like the swedish chef’s. maybe when he comes into his powers he starts looking less and less like a muppet and more and more like a human until it culminates in something dead center in the uncanny valley for both humans and muppets. and then after he tells satan to fuck off he suddenly looks almost perfectly muppet normal with only a twinge of almost-human-y since he still has at least Some powers

in terms of the muppet casting I have no idea who should be whom jdjdbdkd maybe miss piggy for anathema and kermit for newt, mostly bc they’re arguably the main human (adult) characters and it’s funny to me to call a frog “newt”. however this version does not include the all-but-onscreen sex scene okay we do not need to see that. it fades to black just like in the book thank you ❤️

also to be clear all the angels and demons and in particular aziraphale and crowley are all still dressed like in canon. when their wings show up their human true form also has wings. crowley puts on sunglasses on his human self before digging out a tiny pair of muppet sized ones and putting it in his muppet hand to put on his muppet face. yknow. stuff like that

#yes I’m putting way too much thought into something I literally will never do anything with shut up jdbdbdkd #this ordinarily would be shared with my friends or something but my brain has so many worms in it rn and refuses to let me socialize #so instead u get to see my stream of consciousness shitposting directly on ur dash. you’re welcome ❤️ #good omens #muppets #muppet au #the bon speaks #having one human try to accurately control a muppet doesnt Really make logistic sense I know but shhhh #I know with most larger muppets u need two people to control them one with the mouth and one arm and someone else with the other arm but #idk. maybe they can manage to use two of those sticks in one hand kdjdbdk #every dramatic scene just becomes 1000% funnier when u imagine it happening with each of them holding a muppet version of himself #again! I will do nothing with this au! but I must think out every angle for it regardless alas #anyway hope u enjoyed my rambling abt gomens but muppets jdbdvdnd #if u read all the post and all these tags I give u a kees on the forehead (• ε •)

theres a post going around like "if you think slow burn fanfic is unrealistic, just wait till you hear about my real life, where i met someone on a tour and we spent all our time together and cuddled and went out for picnics and talked for hours while staring into each other's eyes and then never said ANYTHING or even HELD HANDS........... for TWO WHOLE WEEKS!!!!" (... "then after a month he sent me a letter saying he'd been in love with me the whole time.")

and like. i'm sorry. two weeks? two weeks is your example of 'an astonishing and ridiculous length of time for two people with an intense emotional connection to spend knowing each other without admitting romantic feelings?' two weeks? two weeks.

#depending on how you want to define your terms i was silently romantically obsessed & doing all that with 🌸 for between 1.5 and 3 YEARS #it would be deeply inappropriate to respond to that person's post with ''get good''. but my god #box opener #i mean my own experience aside i cannot even imagine trying to confess love to someone i'd only known for two weeks #not because i couldnt develop an intense crush in that time. but like. my god. not even REMOTELY enough time to consider your angles #determine whether it's a good idea long- or even short-term #contemplate the rammys #etc. #even if god came to me the moment we met and GUARANTEED the person would return my feelings id still want more than two weeks #just to evaluate #my god. life is varied #normally people complain about things labeled 'slow burn' being inappropriately short in reader time #but this person has introduced the concept of wildly inappropriate slow burn in terms of in-universe time. innovations

thinking that. any of the things simon is currently trying to do are going to be good or helpful for him in literally any way. is. congrats you’ve fallen into his trap. that’s what he wants you to think. that’s what HE thinks. if he can see betty again then surely that would make him happy because that’s the problem, right? it’s just that he misses betty that’s all, right? then everything would definitely be perfectly fine. and if he can’t have that then he should have magic again because that’s the problem, right? he can’t do anything to help anyone (without magic) he can’t fit in anywhere (without magic) and he can’t relate to anyone around him (without magic) so that must be what’s wrong. surely that’ll fix him. definitely no more underlying problems here just all this material stuff that’s so much more straightforward to “fix” and doesn’t require actually properly facing up to any difficult emotions or finding constructive ways to deal with the messed up things that have happened to him.

#One of many angles to look at it with anyway. #He IS problems. #he misses betty bc he loves her but also like……….. #The *Concept* Of Betty is the one good happy familiar thing #that he has any path to try and… Get Back #he can’t get back the world before the war. #you know he never actually saw… magic betty #he is chasing this 1 thing associated with happiness. unaltered in his mind like nothing ever happened to her either #And well theres so many reasons for him trying to be ice king again #‘this is a way i can be USEFUL again’ and ‘this is what everyone wants from me’ #and ‘this will make the world make sense to me again this will give me a place again’ #And also. ‘GOD i wish i could just shut my brain off and die’ #basilposting #atposting #fionna and cake spoilers

"Did you not say that Lorenza was the princess of this domain? For a princess to be fretting like a nursemaid, knelt beside a bed.. It speaks volumes of the devotion she has towards her lover."

I made it past the 6.2 trial tonight with the help of one of my other friends very kindly queueing for it with me, and the game presented a decent opportunity for a bit of an angst moment.. so I took it!

(To anyone who may be concerned: don't worry, Zero will be okay soon! It's just the immediate aftermath of the 6.2 trial that leads to this situation, but she recovers. That isn't going to stop Lorenza worrying about her, though - a rare instance of actually seeing her so concerned about someone or something.)

#heart of the void #selfshipping #..I don't really know whether to tag this as a creation or not. like I posed the camera and stuff but #screenshot tag #that'll do #you can still reblog it if you want to but i probably won't use the tag list #since all I did was mess with the lighting and time lorenza's pose/expression in /gpose and angle the camera #let it be known that trying to get the camera in the right place was quite the ordeal because of the angles/surfaces involved. #selfship: in a land forever strange (zero/lorenza) #except here we are not in that land! this is home in zero's domain (which in my version of events is also lorenza's because we're together) #love: final memoriate (zero) #self‑insert: wings of the void (lorenza) #of shards and crystal (FFXIV) #the caption is.. in *theory* spoken by varshahn but honestly it could kind of have been any of the others who are currently there in-game #varshahn just makes the most sense because he's least familiar with lorenza so that makes the first line/question make more sense to say #also I don't know if this was just because I messed about with glamourer but zero's eyes are actually open right now which is. odd. #hence the angles trying to obscure that .w. #anyway please ignore the time of night and I hope you are all having a good day/night/etc.

Blacklistable tag update: in the next few days I will probably put up one or two original posts related to BG3, one of which will be art (assuming I finish my shit at a reasonable time). I will likely be posting these under "emi plays bg3" and not "bg3"; large fandoms make me nervous. I wanted to be sure I was clear so that folks could filter things out. I will try to be more consistent henceforth with using that or the normal fandom tags on posts. If you are looking to catch my characters from that and a recent PF campaign (I know I often don't fandom tag asks), "kasander" and "asperia" should cover your bases.

I will try to reblog this a few times at some more decent hours.

I was in such a long slump. #climbing out is such a process of 'awesome! kingmaker art soon!' #I just think I got mired in a list of backlog things that were relatively simple for kingmaker while taking a mental health L and got got #doing a more full scene without any particular pressure or established work to follow feels incredibly good. getting it flowing again. #hopefully it will continue! I do want to hit that backlog!!!! #it's been so long since I had new OCs who fully gripped me as well.

Lesson 17 Hard Mode Spoilers(???)

Just finished Lesson 17 Hard Mode ( Don't @ me. I'm taking anything I can get to stay invested ) and like.... Did Michael just love bomb the Angels? (ಥ ͜ʖಥ)

Maybe my ass just hates gifts cause I'm so difficult but like... Weird doting vibes- Anyways weirdly I feel bad for Raphael being caught in the middle of it all - He's so awkward I see myself in him (ಥ ͜ʖಥ)(ಥ ͜ʖಥ)

#obey me #obey me nightbringer #obey me nightbringer lesson 17 hard mode #obey me nightbringer lesson 17 hard mode spoilers?? #obey me nightbringer spoilers?? #Does this count as a spoiler? its literally two lines of dialogue... Interesting dialogue mind you but I'm not saying what it entailed. #I'm going through a phase of always loving men i cant have #I was obsessed with Simeon and Solomon but I feel like I get Raphael #Maybe I just dont like anybody and the fact Raphael dont like anything connects me to him #Imagine just trying to do your job as an Angel and Simeon makes it difficult - Like okay Karen take the kids and go LOL #I'm kidding Simeon's not a Karen I hope... He definitely makes life difficult for angels and demons alike #I like Simeon :> #No but like I don't try to weigh in anything with Michael cause we don't know him we only get pieces but this story bit... #I can't tell if hes mad doting with dad vibes that spoils every kid he meets or if he's someone who knows what hes doing giving gifts #I wonder if Michael and Diavolo would ever have a dynamic or ever conversed I feel like they are two people pulling Lucifer in directions #And of course Diavolo would be painted as the “good” option based on the angle of everything then Michael... #They'd probably either paint him as the opposite of Diavolo or similar to Diavolo except with darker elements under a saintly smile #Idk my mind's tired and rolling don't @ me #Still pretty odd huh.

you see, there's the possibility that episode 4 is good (judging from the trailer, the chimera fight might actually be fun to watch), but there's also the possibility that they cut the train scene where annabeth talks about architecture and building something permanent for pacing purposes

#if it does get cut #then they get a second chance in season 2 if it happens and that's it #trying to think of all the changes they could even make #the river scene is going to be different because of the angle they're going at with the gods #where that's good or bad is subjective #from the trailer it seems like there is a monster on the train for some reason #imagine if alecto just resurrects from being stoned #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo #percy jackson #pjo tv show #pjo tv series #rick riordan #walker scobell #leah sava jeffries #aryan simhadri #scheduled post
