Tacza's "new" look
I decided I'll give every god a "god" look and more "human friendly" look. His and the other 3 from the initial design already have "human friendly" forms (Abyss had both, the one in the bacground is their "god" form). Auros and the doggo have their "god" forms in their respective drawings. Draco had his "god" redesign in his solo drawing (the one with glowing parts and big hole in the stomach) and here's one for Tacza. Alia will have to wait for hers for a while, because I just can't give another god multiple hands. I mean I can, but I don't think that will be a good idea, and that's exactly what I want to give her. So I have to come up with an alternative or not (deciding to stick with multiple hands thing).
I wanted to give Tacza multiple heads, but it looked scuffed. I also thought on giving him multiple faces, but due to the pose I wouldn't be able to show another face on the back of his head. And I really liked the pose I made... So I came up with different solution. The skulls. The skulls repesent his multiple personalities and they switch between each other who's in control. Still he is one singular person. Something like when you put on a "mask" when you go to a party, and you have a different "mask" when youre home. Something like that, but they are phisical skulls that talk and banter with each other all the time.(Just so we're clear, it's nothing like what Protectors have going on for them. I'm just bad with words. Especially english ones.)
A lot of lore drops under a simple drawing. And not all of them are really related to Tacza himself. Oh well, I'll make a master post/website/something oneday, to keep all this info, so it's easy to look up.
#i really like how I rendered his skin here#i just looked up how black and white human face looks like#tried to recreate it to the best of my abilities keeping with how his face is build#and then winged rest of his body using what i learned from the face lol#as for the skulls#they are just references from google#the front facing one is apparently a tiger#and the side one is wolf#the kind of animals they are doesn't have any lore significance (fyi)#i just chose skulls which looked cool#and a small protip for drawing “whay you see not what you think you see” thing#rotate the reference#e.g. I drew this skulls upside down (rotated the canvas so when i went back to the right side up they also were correctly rotated)#gamborgia universum#tacza#god#hellborn#my art#my post

Candid photos never turn out well.
It's happening, everyone! We've made it to the end :D...kind of.
Legato's new outfit (+ annotations) under the cut ^-^
#you can tell that hytopia is a fashion capital because legato's outfit doesn't have pockets. truly the worst timeline 😔#the poor photographer...dude was just trying to get a cool shot of the heroes setting off on a new adventure#and then these little jerks saw the camera and called everyone over to pose for a photo#i tried to roughly frame it with the dimensions that the in-game photos use#just rotated vertically#fun little detail about tfh: each lobby is slightly different‚ so if you reference the wrong one you'll have to go back and fix it later#i spent longer than I care to admit deciding the hair colors for everyone#my art#lu doppelgänger au#lu wind#lu four#lu hyrule#lu legend#lu wild#lu twilight#lu time#lu warriors#lu sky

I know this would never happen in canon for several reasons, but can you imagine being some random gossipy vampire who somehow finds out about Domi and Noé's whole Deal? Like.
"A noblewoman has been low-key letting her platonic friend drink her blood, and even sometimes drinking his."
Seemingly acceptable in vampire society, if maybe a little saucy. Even if we swap in the equivalent human "canoodling" (to use Vanitas's word), they're not the only ones in high society doing some casual messing around.
"The friend she's letting drink her blood is her grandfather's non-noble ward."
Potentially adds some scandal for those that care about class, but it's not too much crazier for the time and place.
"The noblewoman has been secretly in love with her friend since childhood, but the man sees their intimacy as purely platonic and physical."
Oh honey.
"The friend genuinely doesn't seem to realize that chewing on each other's necks could have any implications other than platonic."
We've entered weird territory. Does this guy live under a rock??? Has his friend encouraged this??
"The friend seems like he might be gay, or at least actively falling in love with and physically attracted to a man, despite his ongoing physical involvement with the noblewoman."
So is this guy using her? Is he an idiot? This poor woman has to be in some level of denial not to realize this is a doomed entanglement, right?
"The friend was in love with and used to drink the blood of the noblewoman's dead identical brother. He thinks about him when he bites her"
Girl run.
#''gay'' is an anachronistic word in this context. but trying to sub in something period appropriate would be distracting in a different way#anyway this is a silly and somewhat oversimplified post. but#I saw someone refer to Noé as ''Domi's gay boyfriend'' the other day and I couldn't get that out of my head#I had to lightheartedly rotate them for a while#vnc#vanitas no carte#the case study of vanitas#dominoé#jokes

Dusting off my blog to plop down this sopping wet sock of a man

#ouaw#torbek#once upon a witchlight#legends of avantris#I’m still learning how to draw him and am super rusty on drawing with pencils and traditionally in general#but damn it I wanna figure out how to draw this terrible stinking beast#I rotate him around in my head so much might as well rotate him into a canvas#I only had a reference like a quarter of the time making this truly fighting the strongest battles here

one of the things that I found particularly interesting in Demigods of Olympus is that it finally gives the best direct comparison we've seen so far between Percy and another character's experiences in terms of academics and particularly ableist discrimination.
The way Zane describes his experiences and what we see in his POV is that, while he is similarly discriminated against for his "atypical" behavior and blame is placed on him, the only sorts of punishments he receives for this are relatively benign, such as an increase in counseling. (It is also notable that Zane is somewhat autistic-coded, such as having the "incorrect" scripts when speaking with adults and Sam explicitly reminding him to remember to make proper eye contact.) Percy, on the other hand, similarly experiences discrimination for "atypical" behavior, but whereas Zane is treated as "too smart for his own good" and given slaps on the wrist, Percy is automatically labeled as aggressive, destructive, and a trouble-maker based on preconceived assumptions about him and is more severely punished, such as being frequently expelled.
We rarely get this level of direct comparison between Percy's experiences and that of another character, particularly such similar experiences, so looking at the differences is really interesting to gauge what their different experiences with ableist discrimination is like - and how it could potentially tie into intersectionality and other forms of discrimination at play for them.
For instance, Zane's parents are generally heavily implied to be middle-class and/or generally financially secure, versus Percy who grew up poor, so it could be classism in combination with ableist discrimination. Alternatively, it could be intersectionality with racial discrimination, as neurodivergent behavior in people of color is significantly more likely to be punished more severely and labeled as aggressive or disruptive behavior due to racist preconceptions - particularly since we know Percy's experiences with ableist discrimination are also somewhat based on assumptions people make regarding his appearance. Both Zane and Percy are racially ambiguous - Zane's appearance essentially being completely unspecified, but Percy at least having some notable details such as having a deep tan complexion. If not racism, it could also be colorism, which in this context often has similar intersectionality. There's a lot of potential options.
It's just very interesting to me! I love having such a direct point of comparison to examine the experiences of two characters within.
#pjo#demigods of olympus#riordanverse#percy jackson#zane carver#analysis#disability#adhd#one of my biggest gripes with analysis that i see often in the fandom is people erasing Percy's experiences with ableism#particularly academically and instead electing to frame his experiences as ''only possibly being from [x] - there's no other explanation''#which is really sad to me because it just highlights how little people understand what ableism and ableist discrimination look like#and simply seem unable to process our experiences and stories meant to reflect our experiences#so having another frame of reference to compare Percy's experiences against is REALLY nice and particularly fun for me personally#because it gives an opportunity to highlight both the general disabled experiences Percy faces due to his adhd/dyslexia#but also how that potentially ties in to intersectionality with other demographics he's a part of or may be a part of#because now we have a point of comparison between how two disabled characters are experiencing similar discrimination for the same thing#but there *are* differences between them in specific ways that potentially indicate something occurring in addition to just ableism#which is fascinating! and allows those discussions in the context of intersectionality WITHOUT erasing disabled experiences! yippee!!!#anyways this is mostly off the noggin since ive just been rotating the thought for a couple of days#chewing on this chewing on it chewing on it

for real tho guys can we stop using “he” as the default/generic pronoun for an unspecified Blorbo. can we stop doing that. we’ve moved on from he as default pronoun in every other context by now but we’ve apparently reinvented it in the specific context of fandom posts
#this was not actually prompted by the post I just reblogged#I know that ‘he would not fucking say that’ is just the structure of that meme#it annoys me at times but that’s how memes work and I don’t really care#no this was prompted by a completely different post I saw immediately after that using ‘he’ to refer to a generic character dynamic#and not just that one but allllll the other ones I’ve seen before it#I made a rule for myself like six months ago that I wouldn’t reblog those rotating my blorbo etc posts#if they used exclusively male gendered language#do you know how few of them I have been able to reblog since then??#like 80% of those generic relatable posts talking about how no one is normal about their blorbo or whatever#are about men. and only men.#can we stop#hot takes with stars

i have a (very evil) question to ask... who's your favorite miracle mask character? favorite to draw, favorite to think about, favorite in general? :)
i will let the images speak.....
thank you for the ask! (~‾▿‾)~
#i will ramble here in the tags for a short bit if you may#since it sort of delays his introduction in the plot of the game i was suspicious of him for the first half of it#cannot properly pinpoint the exact moment i knew that he will get into my brain... which i knew before. last summer#reunion inn study..? perhaps. who gets an entire structural wall from a building to another building cmon#rotating him around... forever. also it could be from music too. banger ost btw#the one that plays in their mansion? the one called expectation? that sums the characters and the story enough what can i say#and then i grew to love angela right away and then randall (somewhat) (im still squinting) (thin ice buddy)#havent looked at henry's reference image in a while sort of as an experiment. to see how it will evolve afterwards lolol#to be loved is to be changed or how they say...#anyways! i rather thought it was obvious who my favourite might be phphph#random headcanon time. angela gets sick frequently but walks it off after 3 days. henry rarely gets sick but gets very bedridden (by angela#artstump#answeringstump#thank you for the ask again!!!! :D hope its an alright answer-#henry ledore#professor layton

Sudden realization that we now have a Smol Cloud Quintet of kids on the Luofu.

Warning: contains minor spoilers for version 1.5 content.
After Huohuo's debut and the recent Trailblaze Continuance + Event, I've noticed that a few recurring faces seem to parallel the good ol' High Cloud Quintet of the Luofu, be it by accident or on purpose. And if you know me, then you may have noticed I really like to connect the dots (or in some cases, make up headcanon dots for funsies), so I had to put these thoughts into words.
Going clockwise from the center, we have:
1) The High Elder of the vidyadhara, well-known for proficiency in healing arts, designated mother hen, and.... significantly shorter than everyone else in the group. Poor Bailu. At least she gets to be a short gremlin, and that's neat! Go cause mischief, queen!
2) A talented swordsman who aspires to be the Sword Champion and has an affinity for ice. And for throwing sharp objects as an attack. Kinda funny how Jing Yuan is the only one of Jingliu's disciples that doesn't do that, and yet his own apprentice picks up the habit anyway.
3) A newbie Cloud Knight of somewhat traditional upbringing, who happens to be really impressed by their superior and gets noticed by them in turn at some point (see Sushang's About Yanqing line, and the latter calling for assembly when he joins a team with her specifically).
4) A foxian who's known to be very good at her job, but gets into a lot of trouble and earns a nickname for exactly that (Cursed One for Huohuo, Starskiff Killer for Baiheng), and still miraculously scrapes by every unfortunate encounter.
5) A crafty, short-lived outlander whose home planet was destroyed in their childhood, with them being taken to the Xianzhou as a result, and then rising to fame thanks to their creativity and fiery spirit. They also befriend the aforementioned newbie Cloud Knight, except there's lots of squabbles and teasing involved.
Personally I think they should all be friends. A silly lil group that circumvents the law and gets up to shenanigans. Half of them are already besties in canon too, so it's not particularly farfetched, and the potential interactions between the rest are fun to think about!
Bonus:

Oh my god, they know.
#can't believe that reference is actually canon#anyway i'm rotating these five in my head. they're stacked like tsumtsums and spinning around with various levels of enthusiasm#new friendgroup headcanon acquired! hooray ^v^#honkai star rail#hsr#hsr bailu#hsr yanqing#li sushang#hsr huohuo#hsr guinaifen#smol cloud quintet#pink's musings#honkai star rail spoilers#hsr spoilers
