#not really a souls game lol

[death-rebirth-senshi]

I think Malenia's grab throw and impale you attack is cool but waterfowl still feels goofy to me idk

#like it's cool but it's also goofy looking. For a souls game. To me. #like there's been progressively more and more of what you could call 'anime shit' #and weapon arts in elden ring get pretty fancy #so it's definitely not out of place in elden ring. it's just. Okay we're doing this huh #not really a souls game lol #just thinking about Malenia again and why she doesn't hit for me despite having all the elements #I think if she were mentioned less in game perhaps. And if she were somewhere more surprising #she's just kind of there right where she's expected #I guess if you don't know beforehand and didn't explore the shaded castle the whole missing limbs thing is a surprise #sitting there waiting and rotting and dreaming about rotting and covering the land in rot #can she truly believe in and be loyal to her dear brother dreaming of such things? #this is not what the future was supposed to hold #also if I didn't hate open world gaems #by the time I get to Malenia it's like. Okay. #I barely had the motivation to get through the haligtree and Loretta 2 #perhaps someday. Goodness knows I don't like the painted world even a little bit #and I still beat Friede and find her easy now

Raphael, Archdevil Supreme Oil on canvas pad, 8x10" details and process below lovely ref by @crimsoncrocuta

This non-canon outfit for Raph is one of my favorites! I love drawing him in it 💜 The frilled collar isn't in the original but I like to paint it in. It feels incomplete without it. I drew inspiration from Singer-Sargent, one of my major art influences. I'm self-taught and have studied his works for years, but this is the first time I've attempted his technique with oils (I was intimidated 😅). But I'm glad I tried because I learned a lot! I can only upload one video which is the process, but on my Instagram you can also watch: some tape removal, varnishing, and me adding the highlights for his eyes.

Process

Mr. Wincott has seen the wip of this! very happy and grateful :D

Why are they looking like I'm starting to pick a fight

#im kinda disappointed by their additions idk i only played as majima for a short period so maybe i need to try again #but i was hoping for their combat to be more fleshed out n stuff #i also think mad dog of shimano is the most boring majima fight style to play sorryyy #idk what exactly i was expecting but just more! #i was hoping they were fully fledged like kiryu #apart from this let down i think the game is wonderful #having so much fun with the combat #i really need to get the judgement games #but i still need to finish lad dead souls and start ishin lol #ive been playing these games for half a year and im still not up to date hehe #rgg #yakuza #majima goro #dojima daigo #ryu ga gotoku #the man who erased his name #gaiden #gaiden spoilers #lad gaiden #lad gaiden spoilers #like a dragon gaiden spoilers #yakuza spoilers

A very sketchy and experimental resh'an I did about a month ago ⌛️

#sadly hes in painting purgatory and idk where the hell i put him in my room LMAO 😭 sorry resh'an #maybe ill finish him someday when i find him but hes been lost to the crevaces of my bookshelf. i hope he enjoys it there. #ngl i still really like the way his arm looks. i love giving resh and aeph really disgusting looking arms. a little sneak peak of how their #bodies have deteriorated over the years #i think they both look like shriveled up mummies underneath all the robes... or like a hollow from dark souls 1 #btw its supposed to be him when you first roll up on him w garl in the tower. thats why hes gross and. crusty and also missing his hourglass #working on a digital valere piece rn #im gonna try to finish it today during class hopefully #ALSO DONT LOOK TO HARD AT HIS LEGS.

just went in game to check this, they added reactions to taking haarlep's deal from your romance

#my astarion game is the only one far enough in to test this lol but all the romances should have reactions #i really want to hear minthara's delivery of her line #hers is “This is an incubus. It will steal your soul. You may need it later.”

For all that was said Of where we'd end up at the end of it When the heart would cease Ours never knew peace What good would it be on the far side of things? It was too soon When that part of you was ripped away A grip taking hold Like a cancer that grows Each piece of your body that it takes

#art of p #lies of p #carlo lies of p #romeo lies of p #romeo king of puppets #carmeo #carlo x romeo #i was supposed to put the bet by rio romeo song because thats initially the inspo that took me into painting this #but francesca by hozier also worked out better because of the lyrics + the dante's inferno theme #its generally Just Hell in this context though #something something they live in hellfire even though their ergo will never unite #even though carlo's soul will never come back right #got me thinking about how much carlo and romeo loved each other so much #and like #they only really had each other growing up #which is crazy to me that they were technically everything to each other #gepetto is suck #god this game got me and i still get my ass beat #i havent moved past the fourth checkpoint tho LOL #good lord #hozier

i'm gonna book another tattoo this month and aim to get it done around my birthday next month 🎈

now i just don't know if i should go for my dark souls idea (a black knight helm) or do another insect.. and also what insect.. i was thinking either a longhorn beetle, a weevil, a whip scorpion, or a centipede

#gonna book with a new artist.. she does really good bold work #and i think i prefer bold tattoos over fineline #im really feeling that dark souls tattoo #but also i want more bugs #i'll do one now then probably book the other one in the summer #rambling #also i think i'm gonna keep my arm with the dagger tattoo as a video game oriented arm #and my other arm with the mantis tattoo will be more of a bug/nature arm???? #my eventual full sleeve plans as of now #also i have another dark souls related tattoo that i'm planning for my leg lol

[inloveanddepth]

love these guys

#i like how cringe they all are. like all of them are flawed & immensely cringe. no one's main is safe #they're cringe in different ways & some more than others but they're all cringe. love it #why are the fans for my two favourite soul fighter champions the autistic-coded ones !! #why are the autistic-coded ones the most unhinged.... #though tbh i think you could make an argument for all 5 of them being autistic 😭 #sommer's homemade jhin cosplay is so cute #they somehow managed to capture the exact brand of weird that jhin fans are. bravo #i think the funniest part about him is that jhin would not be able to stand him lmao #him wearing a shirt with the same art that's on the print he's holding makes me crack up for some reason #obsessed with the jacked yordle named rizz.... she's everything #also can i just say i love the crop top on guy. fantastic creative decision. so many crop tops in soul fighter i love it #kiri is crazy though what do you mean she's literally selling rpf at an event that the people she's writing rpf about are at #her repeatedly trying to get samira to read her fanfiction is kind of hilarious #& then she tells samira she's going to write fanfic about her. which is kiri's way of praising her. she is nuts (affectionate) #the way she keeps casually mentioning pyke totally kills people in this universe & she still adores him #she's the worst kind of fangirl (which is the point. they're all parodies) but it's hard to hate her lol she's so silly #my only issue with her is that she's a jhin hater.... how rude #i know her tumblr game goes crazy #the only character i'm confused by is jade. the lux fangirling felt really forced to me #it's not reflected in her design at all; honestly she looks more like evelynn #especially when riki guy & rizz & sommer are all clearly emulating gwen sett & jhin respectively #plus jade's shtick was more about parodying true crime & political content creators it seemed. the lux stuff felt tacked on #i guess it was because dema is after lux & jade doesn't like dema but it felt over the top at least #on top of the fact that it's pretty hard to make sjw characters actually funny #they should've made a dema bootlicker character tbh. for funzies #i think riot should publish some of kiri's fanfiction on the universe site. wouldn't that be silly #they could do one for each of them! a transcription of one of jade's podcast episodes; guy & rizz's training regimen; a poem from sommer #hope some of them show up in LoR sometime. just for fun #league of legends #soul fighter

[anghraine]

The thing about playing BG3 in the background while the bff and I do our ruthless Vanguard Mass Effect run is that now I'm thinking about a Mass Effect TTRPG.

#i'm sure they exist but i kind of want one specifically tailored to my preferences lol #the classes map really easily into fantasy archetypes despite the sf/f setting imo... #anghraine babbles #the adventures of space redacted #pretty sure i sold my soul to larian studios #anghraine's gaming

3, 4, 5

8, 12, 14

23, and 30

Sorry if it's alot...

it's all good! these are fun

3. What ideas come from when you were little

uuuhhhh...... I don't actually know, honestly.

If you're generous with the term "little" you could say that some of my ocs are technically pretty old(mainly one of my Sonic ocs and Tsunami).

not a whole ton artistically that I can think of tho

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

Any kind of weapon, doesn't matter what universe, they all suck.

5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself

I'd say I share about 95%, and that might be lowballing it. I like sharing the stuff I make, so I really only not share something if it's really personal or I don't like it for some reason, neither of which happen very often.

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

Not really "lost interest" and more of "realized the stupid amount of work that'd have to go into it"; I've always wanted to make either a comic or animated series with my Sonic/Splatoon ocs the latter was a bit more recently, but you know, going into their stories. But I realized the insane amount of work that goes into either of those, came to the conclusion that I probably wouldn't be able to force myself to finish it, and lost motivation.

Someday, maybe, but probably not any time soon.

12. Easiest part of body to draw

Arms and legs, minus the things at the ends lol(I'm getting better at hands tho, feet are just annoying more than anything).

14. Any favorite motifs

I like using colors to associate things with other things. And now that I have a cast of characters that can change color literally at will, I can do that even better :3c

23. Do you use different layer modes

Yes, they are almost entirely how I do my shading and some color stuff as well.

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

I kinda get why, but I feel like a lot of my Sonic art doesn't get as much attention as I would like. And my 3d renders, though again, I kinda get why.

Y'all are here for Splatoon art, and I respect that. :)

#got kinda rambly with this one whoopsie #ask game #eclipse's ask box #i should go into the history of some of my characters at some point #that'd *really* be baring my soul on the internet lol

[crunchycrystals]

fall guy brain rot time !!!!!!! i was wondering why i enjoyed this more than free guy despite me thinking objectively free guy's plot has less holes in it so i do consider the plot objectively better, but then i realized like fall guy just feels so much more sincere to me. every aspect of it is coated in this love for film and tv making and the medium as a whole

#crunchyposts #movies #i love them both dont get me wrong im just having a fall guy moment rn !!!!! #i left the theater and realized damn none of the jokes i could really remember punched down on anyone #meanwhile cough cough gamer sock joke in free guy. i hate that joke lol #i think free guy's a pretty sincere movie too just like. you know what im getting at right #the emotional beats of fall guy just feel so much more intense than free guy thats a bit of a trade off for reynolds' sarcasm and stuff #like i do not buy his more dramatic moments but guy's one of his more sincere characters !!!!!! its all just kinda coated in #this vibe that like. corporational???? the love is for original and creative art and general #but not really video games specifically the way fall guy is to movies #i love free guy btw i just cant really express my thoughts well rn #also bc free guy fumbled the romance bag at the end a bit lol its a good ending just not as well executed as it couldve been imo #meanwhile it is the Heart and Soul of fall guy no matter what its the most important part of the movie #the free guy soul is like clearly the outside world scenes w keys and millie but reynolds is the main guy so like. they have to #take a bit of a backseat #am i making sense sorry lol im turning of rbs of this my thoughts are not in order #ill rewatch both at some point and get it together !!!!!! ive planned on rewatching both anyways #maybe im a bit biased rn bc im in the midst of a minor fall guy hyperfixation but to be fair i was also in a free guy hyperfixation #briefly #post over this will go forever if i dont stop rn lol

[ofcowardiceandkings]

seriously this is an open invitation for gif makers (or their friends) who see this to send me their stuff forreal

message them to me, im always up for queueing more gifsets especially of the games i like

this doodoo ass website's search function is a joke so i always miss things even when i have time to look !!

#i jave CRIMINALLY FEW gifsets of botw/totk or really ANY LoZ game on this blog #considering it owns my fucking soul #im not really expecting i have like a massive following or anything lol #like ... im an obnoxious prick who screams about games and ocassionally shits out a doodle .. BUT IF YOURE THERE ... #rory's ramblings

[sevarix-blogs]

hades 2 looks cool. i haven't been saying anything about it bc i don't think i'll be playing it. i did play hades 1 and while i enjoyed it, i don't really like rogue-like games in general... idk maybe it's the fatigue (i played the first one before the fatigue really set in) but i just can't handle games that are too difficult or require too much energy anymore. or games that require a lot of skill or w/e. there are a few exceptions. but like even octopath 2 which is a very chill game (and turnbased) went from 'oh wow this is great!' to 'wow that was immensely disappointing' when i couldn't beat the final boss due to it being too difficult. anyway i will enjoy hades 2 from the fanart and screenshots and stuff ppl post instead

#i really do prefer turn based games #i could never do a dark souls lol #var's thinkythoughts

[gothamcityneedsme]

finished my soul hackers 2 replay yyayyy. i bought the story dlc and i liked the sidequests, the superboss was kinda disappointing though, not for gameplay, they were incredibly difficult, but like. i expected at least a little lore or nana involvement in the end and there was neither which was sort of odd.

#shitpost #i did like all the extra character moments for everyone and nana was great! #also i did like that it was strictly sidequests with a LITTLE connection to main plot but not much. a good way to do dlc #just WEIRD to me that the superboss was just like. here's parvati and shiva. here's ardha. like. #they're good bosses. again. the fight is really good. but they don't have any relevant world/lore dialogue at all which is just. odd. #a weird choice for like. the optional superboss. to just like. #it'd be like if lucifer was just some guy #or the angels in digital devil saga if they weren't. the angels. lol #also technically like they're included in the paid dlc which makes it. weirder? idk #soul hackers 2 dlc is way too expensive too tbh. idk why its like the cost of over half the maingame if you got all the dlc #which i did not #annoying for ME too because i got the physical collector's edition but that only came with the basegame #so this irritated me for awhile lol. #but i did like the story dlc. it was fun and added nice moments and some good challenging fights #im just confused why the superboss was so irrelevant #i LOVE sh2 though i love you figue forever #can't wait to play agian and finally play on new game plus #i know new game plus has some additional quests AND #MOST IMPORTANTLY. it has hang out events with figue #which i want so bad #also finishing the soul matrixes even tho those are not as big of a deal since there's no more story #just like unlocking the abilities and the dialogue from the abilities though is so fun #i love u soul hackers 2

Really feeling that Baldur's Gate 3 FOMO tonight, especially where Astarion is concerned 😩😩

I was literally looking at Gaming PCs online, even though I shouldn't get one right now. Though I didn't even think about places having a Labor Day sale! I think what I'm gonna do, is try to save up as much as I can the next few months, and then take a look on Black Friday, cause the deals might be good enough I could swing one then. I've been wanting to get a desktop computer for a while, since my laptop is over 10 years old and essentially doesn't function anymore, and this has just made that desire that much more acute lol

#personal shit #currently trying to fill the BG3 sized void i feel in my soul right now #and i cant quite figure out how to do that #especially without spending a bunch of money #and here i was thinking about getting Fae Farm or the new Lego bugs set when they come out next week #but if im serious about getting a PC in November #i definitely shouldn't #and should save up instead #i think this is a good idea #also there's a TON of other games i currently have that i cant play because my laptop is such shit! #i just got the cozy game bundle that humble bundle had #which includes witchy life story and lemoncake!!! #but it was for steam so i cant play it #plus i got a ton of stuff on itchio from a couple charity bundles i did #so it would get its use!!! #the other option was to save up for a ps5 #which would have been nice for the new spider-man game #but i dont really want a ps5 and i do really want a new computer #plus i think there's a good chance the new spider-man game will get a pc release too #eventually lol #since the first one did! #anyway if anyone has any recommendations for getting a new computer especially one good for gaming im all ears #baldur's gate 3

God that reminds me I was writing this longass reply to when you were comparing MineDai to AraSawa and part of it was basically like. Hear me out but While I've Concluded MineDai Should Not Be Parents For Various Reasons… If they were. Non-zero chance the kid could plausibly turn out like Masato 😭😭😭like spoiled and entitled “wait ’til my FATHER(S) hear about this” nepo baby who can’t connect with either dad and actively resents at least one while taking advantage of their familial ties and living a life of (financial) privilege just sounds about right I'm sorryyyyyyyyy

So it was funny to me because just as AraSawa is MineDai With Dads… perhaps MineDai is AraSawa Without Kids… and AraSawa is the alternate, still-doomed timeline…

its only natural that if arasawa is Minedai But Dilfs then minedai inversely is Arasawa But. One Of Them Sees Red Around Happy Children

#snap chats #BUT SOOOO true that baby WOULD be masato adjacent tho... its in the cards... #only i imagine that kid's resentment towards mine is like. actually justified probably #i said it months back but i always think that if mine WAS a dad he'd be a lot like my mom #though somehow probably like. 2% calmer. he doesnt yell at you but he will make you feel inadequate about everything you do #money can fix whatever damage he does right <- it will not and in his soul he knows that but he wont acknowledge it #and why should he i mean its just a kid right. //screaming// #OK BUT ALSO DOUBLE FUNNY i thought of making a stupid meme chart of my first impressions of arakawa/sawashiro #vs how id feel bout them throughout the game and then just. The Conclusion Being 'this is minedai but with dads' #as a comedic super simplification of course. theres layers. but also lol #THE FACT THAT SOMETIEMS I DO FIGHT WITH MYSELF ON IF I WANNA EXECUTE AN IDEA WITH MINEDAI OR ARASAWA #IS REALLY FUNNY. theres differences tho dont be fooled.. its not a perfect mirror but its close enough to be hilarious #ive talked way too long ANYWAY. do not let mine around kids hes going to give them trauma just by talking to them #id trust daigo with a kid tho. hes proven he can take care of them..... what a king... #he reads as someone who'd be a lil awkward bout bein a dad tho but now im gettin too into it
