you know what, it is what it is. I can’t really do nothing i got shown something good and shown something right i made a few friends this year, lost some and gained some i got my heart broken, but i was shown how deep love can go i feel sort of okay. I’m hurting a lot, no doubt. I’ve cried for a day or so but i did what was right for me to do in the long run, even if i fucked up a lot in the past I apologized, i took accountability, i tried to get better and you know what? I did! I really, really did. Because I’m bounds and leaps ahead of who I was months ago. But I still can’t control others decisions, and someone I really loved dearly had to let me go. I can’t change anything, I can’t change what happened and I can’t control whatever happens next really but I can control me and how I feel about it I definitely feel lost. I’ve felt distraught and upset. But I have an understanding. And I can’t make excuses for myself anymore, for anything. All I can do is try to enjoy my time now. I’ll be alone for a whole while. and I have BPD, I hate being abandoned and feeling abandoned. Yeah, i feel really fucked up. indubitably. but was I really abandoned or given some much needed reflection time? I broke down at the table this morning thinking to myself “Oh my god, what if I’m biromantic” and I normally only like guys (or so i thought), but I suppose i had suppressed this in for a while? What if I could love a girl? I’m not even fully sure myself. And what about me? Am I happy being fully masc? well....no. I think I’m just comfortable being...me? and, whatever that means. I think I’m nonbinary. I’m asexual. my romantic identity? well, I like guys, but I don’t know yet about anything else. Am I happy with where my life is? well...no. But I’m glad I’m here and not where I used to be: An addict, being abused, becoming the abuser. I’m not that thing anymore. I’m not going to let that bother me or hold me down Who am I? I’m Alex. I’m a queer author and artist. I like editing and graphic design. I like monster cans and the textures of them. I’m autistic. I’ve created my own worlds. I write stories, I love stories. I love to read, i love books. I’m allergic to dairy and I’m gluten intolerant. my favorite color is yellow and I always make my tables at craft shows yellow to show off the kind of warmth I bring. My eyes are a hazel/brown and I like to dye my hair. i do digital and traditional art, but sometimes i mess my words up and say “tradigital”. I love playing games like jackbox and hanging out with my friends. My favorite movie is Larry the Cable Guy Health Inspector. I always try to be kind and caring to everyone I meet even if I’m going through a tough time. Sometimes I procrastinate but I always get a job done. I love animals and pets. My favorite animal is the Kodiak brown bear. Some people think I’m too much to handle and I’m a little off the edge but they don’t know me the way I know me. I’m not the victim even though i’m hurting, but it’s not gonna take my pain away. Only I can decide what to do with it And what i decide to do right now is not to hurt myself or hurt others because of my pain. All I can do is keep going.

Hey, I’m still alive, just self-isolating. Here’s some content I guess.

Yeah, it’s a shocker, I know. Anyway, here’s all the frit (and one solo Frost) I’ve made in the past few months in chronological order. Sorry I like. Y’know. Disappeared. Hopefully this somewhat makes up for it maybe?

----------------------

Alright, starting from the top...

Here’s a sketch I did March or April sometime. I haven’t drawn these bois in forever, so it’s pretty meh. Also this is a photo that was taken in pretty bad lighting so it’s kinda crap quality.

Here’s a scan of a scared boi. Ngl, facial expressions are literally my favorite thing to draw. Ever. Especially angsty ones asdkhgalkshg Drawing facial expressions usually doubles as vent art too. I have a terrible habit though of mimicking the faces I’m drawing without even realizing it, so I got a lot of “You good??”’s from my friends while I was drawing this askdlhasghal

ALRIGHT, HERE’S THE MAIN PIECE. This is fanart of a scene from the songfic Dear Rabbit, by the amazing @bunny-carrothunter, which can be found here. I freaking love this fic so much, and I like, seriously NEEDED to draw this. I think I looped “I Know I’m A Wolf” by The Young Heretics (which was the song that inspired the fic) for over 12 fucking hours while working on this... I wish I was joking. Here’s copies of both the original scan and the tradigitally finished piece.

Okay, THIS ONE... This one looked SO much better in my head and I see it as a total failure so it’s not even deserving of a good photo/scan. I’m only sharing it regardless because it’s still frit content so whatever. sorrynotsorry. Also for whatever reason “When The Seasons Change” by Five Finger Death Punch served as the looped motivation for this and I don’t even know why. It’s not even really a fitting song for Frit but eh.

----------------------

I’ve also drawn an NSFW piece that I’m planning to eventually turn into a gif but as ya’ll know, tumblr has a problem with NSFW coughbutnotnazisorotherthingsthatarewayfuckingworsecough, so I think I may make an NSFW twitter, and if I do I’ll let you guys know. I’ve also gotten quite a bit better with drawing NSFW so if you have any of my previous garbage then please yeet that shit out of existence. I also have 2 new smut oneshots posted on Ao3. (this meh one and this way better one) So, heads up about that too.

And there you have it. That’s all the Frit I’ve drawn lately. Hope ya guys like it. :P

#frost x hit #hit x frost #frit #hirost #dbs frost #dbs hit #dbs #dragon ball super #yaoi #ship #otp #not exactly my TRUE otp but it is if you don't include OC stuff #I'm not dead #I will go down with this ship #peace out

Wait do you have a drawing tablet? I dont remember seeing a lot of digital art from you

That’s because most of my art is done at work. I have a full time job that requires a lot from me but when I find down time between stuff, I draw in pen on scrap paper. Whatever comes out good enough for me to color, I’ll color digitally.

But I do have digital pieces. Some I need to revisit, actually. But these are all digital only: Penelope, Rose’s Star Wolf secret santa, Torchic n Falco, Sly n Falco, Ace n Lexy, James n Peppy, Falco, and Revali n Falco.

I have more throughout my art tag, and you’ll see a mixture of traditional, tradigital and digital ; v ;

Also yeah, my drawing tablet is slowly dying. The wiring is split and I have to plug and unplug my tablet every few minutes to let me draw or color. It’s been like that for a few months now so that’s why my digital work has been suffering.

Shouldn’t be long once I get my new stuff ready.

BTS Shenaningans Mini Comic Series: #1, A New Look!

L-R: Jim Hutton (not a part of the film, but fun to draw regardless), Mars Sauveterre, and Friso Meteor.

F: Isn’t there some relief in you that the director requested that you get a new do’ during pre-production, Mars? I’m especially that Jim’s doing your hair!

M: Aren’t you just a sweet talker? Now that you mention it, Friso, yeah. I’m surprised that I’m doing something this drastic for once in my life.

I am here to announce that during pre-production, Mars getting a new cut for the film! (And as well, a start of a mini comic series of the shenanigans Mars and Friso get into during pre-production and production).

This is a clean warm up I did inbetween my breaks while working on developing/plannning the project in the first three weeks since starting this term. It’s probably how I’d imagine Mars and Friso would be spending their time during pre-production, as already being picked as actors for this project and undergoing their own changes starting with Mars.

Reasons aside for this necessary change being as Mars and Friso need to look different from one another (as noted from my teacher when first seeing the rough storyboards I’ve done thus far), so might as well have a mini comic series

This is my own style and it will not be translated to the final film as the style will be simplified but have a small stroke of stylism for the sake of drawing smoother tradigital animation.

Do not repost/reblog my art unless you have my requested permission to do so!

@goldentemplariumcrow replied to your chat: Me: No digital drawings this month!! It's inktober...

The challenge of inktober is actually to keep a consistent drawing habit. It doesn’t matter if it’s digital, traditional or tradigital. It’s your choice. The important part for beginners is to make sure they keep a consistent flow.

LOL yeah I know, I just wanted to get away from digital a while, but the idea is there so I’ll be working on that as well as doing things with my pencil and pens. I feel like I’m getting better at quite a few things so it’s been a big help so far!!

#goldentemplariumcrow #I feel like can do more diverse things on paper #it's been a rewarding experience and it's only eight days in

0-1981 replied to your post:

you can always make your own list!

Yeah, you're absolutely right. I was thinking I could also go freestyle without any kind of prompt lists and just... spew random, gory creatures out of my imagination once a day. I want to improve my traditional + digital combo (tradigital? Digitional? :D) style so drawing more pictures similar to this would be useful. Then you guys wouldn't be stuck with me drawing nothing but Inktober scribbles either.

Hmm hmm. You might have to deal with me posting two pictures per day during October (obviously I'll be tagging everything so you can blacklist me if Inktober/spooky stuff is not your jam!).

I’m Upset: My first impressions of “Spirit Riding Free”.

My first reaction to the new TV series “Spirit Riding Free” is one of disdain. “Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron” is one of my favorite animated movies, if not my most favorite, considering there was an era in my mid-teens where if I was given the option to pick which movie we wanted to watch for movie night, there was the stipulation that it couldn’t be “Spirit” or Disney’s “Atlantis” for the umpteenth time that month.

Watching the trailer on Youtube only gives me a TV series that is clearly about “girl power” and will probably make egregious ventures into the route and routine, which makes me ask- why even set this in the same century as the original movie, and why have horses in it at all? From the trailer- which is supposed to entice me into watching this- it doesn’t even seem like it will have the same themes as the original, which can sometime work for a sequel series, but most often does not.

The part I am most upset about is that- according to the trailer- the main character is no longer a horse. It is a little girl, come in from the city (as if we hadn’t seen this before…) and is so staunchly “21st century girl protagonist” it hurts. If this series is truly set a few horse generations after the original, those girls would be wearing bloomers, not the clearly modern pants they do. And of course the dress that the main character so adamantly refuses to wear is bright pink, because of course, if you’re a real girl with real girl power, you absolutely cannot like wearing pink and frilly things.

This real girl, with real girl power, will go with her real girl friends, and somehow befriend and tame a horse- which, according to the official website- is “noble, powerful, smart, and unbreakable buckskin stallion” (italics mine), that no one else can tame, despite being fresh from the city and perceivably having no other training in horseriding than- surprise!- a dead mom.

It basically looks like Saddle Club, only “in the Wild, Wild West!” and the fact that it’s underneath the banner of “Spirit” broadcasts to me that the creators are insecure that the actual story will attract an audience on it’s own merits. Which is also terribly confusing, because clearly it’s made for young girls, but the generation who first watched the movie and would be hit the most by nostalgia is now in their late teens/ early adulthood. Who is supposed to watch this? Who’s your target audience?

What ticks me off even further that it clearly didn’t have to be such an amalgam of current ‘girl power/ a girl and her horse/ plucky trio’ tropes, a setting of the late 19th century , and a clear follower of “there are no responsible/ aware adults here” trope (because you know a responsible adult in the 19th century would not let his or her daughter off into the wilderness with an untamable horse).

What made the original “Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron” so great was the fact that the audience could look at a story of history through the eyes of a horse. This film discussed the differences and relations between the Native Americans and the encroaching United States government in a way that steered clear of being too heavy-handed. The focus was always on Spirit himself, and it was a brave way of storytelling that I personally haven’t seen done in children’s animation since. What’s stopping them from continuing that? The 19th century mid-west from the year 1868 (the date of the Battle of Washita River featured in the plotline) is rife with historical events that could make for an interesting series. The Civil Rights Act of 1875. The first Kentucky Derby. The Battle of Little Big Horn. The invention of the telephone. The Nez Perce War. The invention of the lightbulb. Billy the Kid. Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show and Annie Oakley. The last vestiges of the Gold Rush.

Any of these, and perhaps many more, could have made an interesting series with a main character being a horse, with recurring human characters. It could have been entertaining and educational, much like Liberty Kids, only with a little less focus on concrete facts and instead a creative historical re-imagining. Heck, we could have not focused on just one horse, but several, and even maybe had a story arc about a horse on the east coast (which gives off Black Beauty vibes). It could have continued on with the spirit of the original, still been for kids, yet drawing in the now older crowd for the mature themes that could be presented with an even, steady hand and masterful storytelling.

Though, perhaps in this age of extreme social justice, that sort of idea could quickly turn sour, with preaching and heavy handedness that shouldn’t necessarily come from a horse.

Had this new show presented itself as a show for girls that took place out west with horses that were not descendants from the original Spirit, yeah I might’ve considered watching it. It seems harmless enough, besides the historical inaccuracies, tired tropes and seemingly boring protagonists who seem too modern for the setting that they’re in. But the mere fact that it needs the name of an award-winning animation to give it wind underneath it’s sails, when it doesn’t even handle the same themes, doesn’t bode well for me.

Maybe I’ve just been too jaded towards sequels and sequel series. Maybe I’m also just pissed off about the animation, which looks nothing like the hand-drawn “Tradigital” of the original. Maybe I just think whoever decided that the main character’s name is “Lucky” needs a dog.

Seriously. A girl named “Lucky”. A little Hispanic girl named “Lucky”. A plethora of other names to choose from that were popular during the 19th century that would have made your character stand out among the 2017 animated series line-up, and you choose the name “Lucky”.

Safe to say, based on the trailer, I won’t be watching this series in May.
