(concept 1)

(refined design)

more totk rewritten/botw 2 concept wips

im removing the mayoi (frogs in caves) bc i dont like how satori and its aesthetic was turned from something mysterious and otherwordly to yet another collectable-

so im turnign the frog idea into a single thing living in the underground as a counterpart to satori itself- perhaps it resides in a giant tree growing from the ceiling bc i ASLO didnt like how there was that at first cool looking underground tree with all the rumis (rabbit things) but then it was quite literally nothing (again)

this idea is pretty new so i am still working on the details, im all ears for suggestions :P

#ganondoodles #zelda #art #wip #ganondoodles rewrites totk #botw 2 #the first one is a bit off in proportion #im doing another painting with the better ones too #it doesnt talk #bc making something talk immedaitely makes it less mysterious imo #maybe its like underground krogs #and you gotta rescue its spawns #which are smaller frogs more akin to the ones in the game #but its not that many- im reduscing the number of every collectable but make it all more elborate #so less krogs on the surface too- with most of them actually being outside their forest BECAUSE it is poisoned #and some establishing mini forest- in the form of pink blossom trees like the deku tree #like in ww in a way #OMG ... the cool armor set with the satori face and all but its an actual mask and also it attracts rumis that run with you!!! #.. im having too many ideas again

Hi hello, would you look at that, huh! Saw this lil fella on our backyard a dozen times already.. he looked lonely and it's getting cold here, so maybe I should take him in -

You seem to know a thing or two about bugs and I never seen one like this! So I thought I could ask for advice, like is he the friendly kind at all?

(Couldn't take much pictures cuz he kept wiggling around 😔😔)

here's what it is I think. it's so hard to just enjoy stupid shit anymore bc it's all so commercialized. commodified. we couldnt just enjoy frogs and mushrooms- I have to see 30 posts a day that are reblog bait for people's Etsy collections of pride colored mushroom themed frogs. we couldn't take away anything of weight from be gay do crime, instead I have to see it slapped onto every conceivable piece of merchandise in every font under the sun, for years on end. it's not fun anymore. it makes me hate things I used to enjoy.

#this very nearly happened to highland cows which have been my favorite animals for years & years #but people lost interest in them before i had to deal with the commodification burnout thank god #i know everyone needs to get their bag but fuck dude how many bubble style frog stickers does etsy need #how many be gay do crimes possoms in inoffensive sanrio styles can you stomach #theres nothing interesting or unique about this anymore its content for the content mill #its corporate art style for poor people im so tired of seeing it EVERYWHERE

luffy icon from the previous drawing, ppl on twt Really liked it so have it here too, you can use the transparent version if you want to put your own flags instead, pls do credit me if you end up using my art as your icon!

#my art #monkey d luffy #described in alt text #it was just.. my own twt icon but smh it got a lot of attention?! theres a lesbian flag cause someone asked but i thought 'oh no what if pp #ask for every flags i cant do that many!!' so i did a transparent version for folks to pick for themselves. im wondering if i change it her #too but i love my lil poison frog sm

Edit: the last option should say "I find most or all of them to be similarly easy"

Also, if you're tied between a couple, pick your favorite

Personally spinning is always the easiest to do when my brain isnt working.

#i know the results will be skewed toward whatever most respondents know how to do #so i imagine few lacemakers will say lacemaking bc i dont have many lacemakers following me and its a less common craft #nonetheless im curious #i CANT crochet when my brains not working i will lose all my stitches. knitting i can but it requires a lot of frogging #weaving i would just be too scared to #and wool prep is easy but the tools are sharp. bad combo lol #poll

Hot damn. Great question, I'd love to tell you.

High Fantasy

Look, this rainfrog is called Breviceps bagginsi, so I don't have a lot of choice, now do I?

[src]

Also, I would go with them to the end. Into the very fires of Mordor.

Low Fantasy

Phyllomedusine hylids have a certain weird clown marionette vibe to them. Just look at these Pithecopus rohdei.

[src]

Lovecraftian

The male Rhinoderma darwinii raises his tadpoles in his vocal sac.

Sci-Fi

Gephyromantis pseudoasper sometimes wear handsome stripes—very Space Age™

But more importantly, their calls evoke a battle with laser-blasters.

I filmed this calling male in 2017 at an obscene hour of the morning.

Horror

Trichobatrachus robustus, aka the Hairy Frog, has flanks and thighs covered in weird, hair-like outgrowths that increase oxygen exchange over its skin, and BREAKS ITS FINGERS TO STAB YOU WITH CLAWS MADE OF BONE

[src]

Romance

Breviceps males physically glue themselves to the back-ends of females, and if that's not romance, I don't know what is.

[src]

Comedy

Nyctimantis arapapa are probably amongst the funniest-looking frogs out there.

[src]

Adult

The 'poly' in Polypedates may be a double entendre

[src]

Crime and Mystery

Calyptocephalella gayi is a Galaxy Brain frog.

[src]

Speculative

Myobatrachus gouldii is basically what would happen if you decided to try to build a turtle, but you only had frog pieces in the kit.

i uhhh made a little thing for @luigigirl12, a drawing of Library AU Eyhm being protected by a VERY defensive Fake.

dunno what made him like that..... but he sure as hell ain't letting anything touch this cat.

hope you like them 🤗

#actually i don't know if i've ever even seen library fake get mad. but uhh well i changed that hehehe. #i will do everything in my power though to shove this cat against every AU fake possible and they will be Friends. universal constant. #my art #eyhm stuff #pizza tower au #pizza tower fake peppino #pizza tower oc #if uhhh. if anyone has any additional fakes with which you'd like me to interact with this cat. do not hesitate to ask. #i already have too many funny little scenarios in my head that i need to get out. #might be a little invested in this Frog/Cat Friendship i've created. they're infesting my brain. no escape. oh well.

I'm still on a fairy tale kick! Please give me 5 headcanons for a Sleeping Beauty AU where All for One made up a story about his brother being cursed to prick his finger on a spinning wheel and die as an excuse to keep poor Yoichi locked up and isolated. Maybe he even faked an evil fairy incident. Thank you!

1- Yoichi loves fairy stories, always has, and the beautiful illustrations of them too. AfO has not, because when Yoichi is paying attention to the books, he isn't paying attention to him. When Yoichi asks him why he hates fairies so much, AfO says it's because they ruined Yoichi, cursed him. Gave him his tendency to be ill, and awkward, and that before his sixteenth birthday, he'd be pricked with a spindle and die.

2- Yoichi is pretty sure he made that up, but unluckily for him he's in the au where AfO gets to have a despotic boyking era, so when the prince asks about fairy stories the staff all nod along because he's sweet, and when AfO glares at them, they agree the curse happened. Every regent or advisor who's attempted to control the kid has ended up very dead, so everyone just kinda hope the boy grows out of it. And well, no one's exactly expecting Yoichi to live even to twenty anyway.

3- When the boys are thirteen, the carriage is attacked by someone jumping out of nowhere in a strange mask, holding out a spindle and lunging for Yoichi. AfO knocks them back and the fae flees. AfO announces it's clearly too dangerous for Yoichi to leave the castle grounds. When the boys are fourteen, Yoichi is enjoying the gardens and picking a flower when a lose spindle drops out of the bush, missing where his hand was by inches. He watches from the window as dozens more are found. AfO declares it too dangerous for Yoichi to go outside. When Yoichi is fifteen, something with glowing eyes half crawls through his window before being chased out, the spindle the only thing left. AfO moves Yoichi to a basement room with no windows.

4- Yoichi tolerates it for a time, before telling his brother that once they turn sixteen, this can end, he'll have beaten the curse. AfO remarks that he must have misheard- the curse was before his sixtieth birthday, not sixteenth. The next time that AfO visits, he finds Yoichi despondent, not reacting to anything, including him. AfO has to threaten to kill random servants and guards before Yoichi will eat, but he only speaks to ask to be released, and AfO finish the story. AfO always refuses.

5- eventually, the servants and guards have had enough. A maid flies into AfO's rooms one morning screeching that there are no guards downstairs anymore, only frogs in tiny suits of armor, and she couldn't find the one with the key to the prince's room. AfO races down with his key, the maid not following but slipping outside, and on opening the door finds Yoichi's bed empty. All that's on it is a spindle, wrapped in silvery hair, not thread, and a piece of paper with a drawing of Yoichi, eyes closed in sleep and wearing a crown of tiny golden spindles, with mirrored writing that says "Don't invite the fair neighbors where you don't want them to step."

+1- while AfO has his breakdown, Yoichi and every guard who'd worked down there is already smuggled out of the palace. For his own part, he's in a cart of straw, listening to Bruce complain that they should have saved a couple of the little suits of armor they'd all worked together to make for the frogs his cousin Hikage had helped collect, and Kudo telling him to stop complaining.

#it sucks to have a despotic boyking for many reasons but. i do feel they are very much easy to gaslight with the right own #*plan #and with a whole staff very annoyed at him well..... the guards have already been turn to frogs and the prince carried off asleep to #fairyland! no one knows how to get him back but afo clearly knows soooo much about fairies he'll probably be able to find Yoichi if he uh #just wanders into the woods with some iron and inside out clothing yeah yeah #pocket talks to people #aimportantdragoncollector #ask game

Honestly, going into your WIP pile to actually go through it and see what you actually want to finish can be really helpful, especially when you don't judge yourself and try to learn why that piece became a hibernater in your WIP pile

Some questions I ponder when I look at a WIP is:

Is this project turning out how I want? If not, what about it don't I like?

Do I or did I have fun when I was starting it?

Will I actually use it or enjoy it when I'm done?

Do I like the material now?

Do I see myself enjoying the product after it's done?

Were there, or are there, time restraints preventing me from finishing?

Is this out of my current skill set, and am I okay with that?

If I could change one thing about the WIP, what would it be?

I know plenty of people won't incorporate this into their own WIP and crafting journey, and that's okay. But I know so many people who hibernate their projects for many reasons and feel guilty about it. I hope this might give people ideas about why they hibernate projects to prevent that type of guilt from eating away at their conscious. This (creating) should be fun, and if you're spending a lot of time feeling guilty or ashamed, it can be hard to continue doing the things you like.

#art #fiber art #knit #crochet #(but this applies to a Lot of crafts and skills and whatnot. i direct it towards knit and crochet because that's what i had in mind) #honestly i think i'm going to frog one of my WIPs because i just don't want it anymore #i don't like the pattern or the method it calls for and i don't like the acrylic material it recommended either #freeing yourself in the way you keep and permanently retire a WIP can be really healing i think #because then you can accept that you have the *right* to refuse to complete something which doesn't spark joy #i think many times people hibernate projects which spark anxiety or frustration for whatever reason #so sometimes you hibernate a project because you are anxious about not having the 'right' level of skill to complete it for instance #that's a generalization but i found personally that exploring *why* i hibernate things can lead me where i want to be... #...and lead me to explore what it is that fulfills my creativity in the way it needs to be honed #there is NOTHING wrong with never finishing or frogging a piece. in fact i implore you to do it if you want
