I've always enjoyed the idea of showing the differences of personality through the art style of characters. It's also pretty good practice when you're drawing them side by side. Plus, any excuse to bust out the invader zim style is a good one. Meanwhile, Lizzy has a much more standard half chibi style that fits the vibe more.

I may draw the other characters like this in the future. Maybe J has a more elegent/papery look while someone like V has a scratchier/comic style. N for sure is getting a softer water color look. I may do his by redrawing the 'famous' cat hold pose. Khan could have a more industrial style look and Nori I'm undecided on as of now.

an underrated realism thing from the pitt that i love is the hair

you can see their hair get messy and frizzy and shit throughout the day AND every!! character!! has!! their!! hair!! pulled!! back!!

talk to me about bottom fadel and service top style. fadel who never trusted anyone 100% and always had to be in control to survive but gets so overwhelmed as soon as style takes charge. style who is able to bring out fadel's soft side and asks fadel to lay himself bare for style in every possible way

sorry but no one can convince that style wouldn’t love to take care of fadel until fadel comes completely undone under him and that fadel wouldn’t love to give up control and let style do whatever he wants with him

How difficult would you say it is to draw Diligence and Mud?

I think for me it's about... 6/10, but it's more because I don't have that many references.

For me they're very very easy to draw, like 1.5/10. (They're not intricate mecha after all :^D)

Diligence is a lot of simple clean shapes. Where only small details like getting the angles of his mouth or torso down correct get finicky. He is just spheres and cones

My Mud is super easy, albeit much more detailed, since he is just a skull with some melted skin draped over the lower half of his head. I've been drawing animated skull faces for a long while by now, hence why it's second nature to me.

The episode and animator showreels should provide a lot of good references. Especially the maya playblasts in showreels. You can see all the shapes very clearly without textures and only simple shading on. I recommend looking through frame by frame the episode if you need a specific reference. That's what I did to figure out how the characters work.

Looking good so far ! Just gotta keep practicing and studying, and you'll get them nasty boys drawn without trouble soon enough 👍

a commission for @king-of-heartless ! being given free rein to just drawn ansem was used as an excuse to draw something i've really wanted to for a while - a little get together with some color music heartless!

this was delightful to work on, and i'm thankful for the patronage~

Another controversial opinion from ✨️me✨️

You guys are SO wrong here. Like I hate powerscaling and these hypothetical fights but good fucking god. Don't get me wrong, Lin is an extremely skilled fighter, and it would probably be a close call, but I think Suyin is heavily underestimated here.

The first point people bring up is the fight between Su and Lin, and the fact that even when Lin was weakened, her and Su seemed to be evenly matched. Thing is, it's very obvious that Su wasn't going all out either. Between her primarily dodging and blocking Lin's attacks, focusing heavily on putting distance between her and Lin, and not taking all the shots she could've, it's pretty obvious that Su was playing for time. Waiting for Lin to 'get it out of her system', as she said.

Which, Su essentially allowing Lin to rage at her and verbally abuse her, and later physically attack her and just take it is a very interesting part of their relationship but oh well.

And we know this isn't Su going all out, because she immediately goes for the kill. She's a very aggresive and quick fighter, and can fight from both a ranged distance, and a melee one.

Suyin is a heavily agile, fluid fighter, and has an uncanny ability to use her surroundings to her advantage.

Another argument for Lin being a better fighter than Su is that Lin spends most of her time fighting criminals and triad members, while Su lives a primarily peaceful life. And, yeah, that is a very good point. Here are some other fighters who lived mostly peaceful lives and therefore struggled against their more combative contemporaries.

Like, yeah, you can argue that Lin has more combat on a day to day basis, but most likely it is triad mebers and petty criminals. We see that Lin struggles adapting to different enemies. Like the equalists very obviously threw her for a loop.

And I think that's one of Suyin's great strengths. She is a great strategist, very quickly adapting to a rare bender like P'li, coming up with the strategies to take her down.

Suyin combines intellect and speed, making her a very effective and adaptable bender. She's one of the most acrobatic benders, not only using her wires to move around, but she just has mad hops.

Suyin also seems to have taken the Iroh method of learning from other benders, as her bending heavily resembled waterbending with its fluidity and usage of momentum, while her propensity to dodge and use her surroundings bears the hallmarks of airbending. This is not surprising, since Suyin is a very well travelled person, as well as had established a diverse city.

While Lin uses very typical earthbending movements, prioritising stregth and power. She packs a punch, but that probably leads to longterm strain. Like Lin strains her entire body to bend the earth, while Su utilses momentum her body already has. And I think that honestly represents the sisters' personalities very well.

Lin bends harder, and Suyin bends smarter. And in the world of Avatar, there's a pattern of the creative and innovative being the most cabable fighters.

I was reading a fic that had Zuko encouraging Katara to use her blood bending in less violent ways so she’d be more comfortable with/accepting of it and basically he was cooking and wanted her to get the blood out of the meat (I think?? It’s been a minute). And I love the idea of that. I always felt like it could be so useful, and not just this horrifying tool. So new headcannon unlocked

Edit: the fic is I’m Still Here by owedbetter on AO3😁

I get there's no really good mirrors in Ancient Greece(there were so blurry if they even existed at all), but would looking into one turn Eclipse to stone?

Cause if there were mirrors I feel like this would be another reason to avoid them besides looking at himself

We'll find out about mirrors in O' Medusa soon enough :)
