There are some characters where giving them therapy and cleaning them up is the fanfiction equivalent of buying antique furniture and painting it white

When you accidentally say the q word (quest) and your knight starts gently clanking from their happy wiggles like now you've done it, you have to send them into the dragon's lair or their helmet ploom will droop and they'll start waxing sad poetic in the moonlight

the spirit is unwilling and the flesh it feels not so good also

as a subtitler im incredibly biased as i say this but. shoutout to forms of fan labor other than fanart and fanfiction. fanart and fanfiction are awesome, don't take this as a dig at those, but i have a big appreciation for fans who provide closed captioning/subtitles/translations of works out of love n passion; fans who recap and explain aspects of the original work; fucking SPEEDRUNNERS, holy shit, shoutout to speedrunners and challenge runners in video game communities. lots of things that fall outside the scope of what comes to mind when people think of fanart/fan labor are integral parts of a healthy fan ecosystem

do you like, have any tutorial or way to study your art style??

Like your art is so eye candy and I geniunely love the way you draw things, and want to ask for inspo from you and learn you, do you have any ways or tips for your art like walk me through your process beautiful art person

This is an incredibly kind thing to say, and I will be thinking about it for the rest of my life. I'm really happy you like my art <3

Tutorials and tips are a weird thing, mostly because I see every flaw in my art and think i'm not in place where I could give out advice to other people! However, if I had to give one tip, it would be to copy copy copy. Study the art that you like and study it really carefully. Try to replicate the way your favourite artists do things in your own art. Make copies of your favourite pieces until your hand hurts (but probably don't post those).

I'm sorry this isn't solid advice, and you've definitely heard it before, but i'm still learning myself (￣▽￣;)

Your Jonathan Sims is gorgeous!! Have you ever drawn him with S1/S2 short hair?

thanks hehe (*＞∇＜)ﾉ

some thoughts on the subject (side note i do not remember *exactly* when his hand gets burnt so just pretend it fits)

also worth noting that my designs work off the assumption that his hair grew stupidly long during the coma. the eye has a sense of fashion.

still perfecting the design :P

my inability to make two pieces of art in a row from the same fandom will be my downfall. who needs consistency when you could have complete thematic and stylistic confusion instead :)

With every ship the first thing I ask myself is if the characters involved actually like / would like each other. If the answer is an uncomplicated yes, then I have to try again
