#this kinda works actually

the thing about "i could do that" is that what people mean is that they can copy the finished product because the work of coming up with something and making it has already been done for them. every little creative decision has already been made and put into creating something, so "doing the same thing" is only doing the work of physically making something. but art doesn't just appear out of thin air. every little decision someone makes is part of the creative process. if you "can just do that" you would be doing it instead of just saying it. because the most essential part of making a piece of art is actually making it. you have to come up with it, decide to make it, and make it, for it to even exist. you can look at someone's works and think that on a technical level you can Do The Same Thing but that's not really true. because the work of unique creative choices for a particular piece you're looking at has already been done. some pieces are hard to make because they're very complex on a technical level, but every single piece that's created requires the essential work of coming up with it, making choices that are unique to you as an artist, and actually making the piece
#it kinda helps me to think of my work that way#even if my work isn't complex on a technical level i'm still making my own unique creative choices#and most importantly i go through the work of actually creating something#even if i think it's lacking#op

not my ex jcpenney portrait studio photographer ass drawing a family shoot two years after quitting that godawful job 😂 but i really wanted to draw sage so of course it had to be a fam photo ☺️
#stobotnik#dr robotnik#ivo robotnik#dr eggman#eggman#agent stone#sage#sonic the hedgehog#metal sonic#sonic frontiers#sonic the hedgehog movie#fun fact: i only used the red background twice in the three months i worked at jcp#since it's actually not one of the bigger backgrounds but one of the smaller kid ones so i didn't get to use it much#and i only remember one of those two shoots was for a 3 or 4 year old kid who brought a toy dino with him#he was kinda fussy but i actually got some cool photos of him with the toy

Gravity Falls but Bill’s “i like Mabel cuz she’s an agent of chaos” opinion is actually correct
aka a drawing of my au that has been living in my brain rent free for the past several months
#i don’t even have a name for this au yet#i just call it the “chaotic neutral mabel au”#cuz imma be honest i don’t think mabel could ever be ‘chaotic evil’#at least not her canon version#to my defense i always sucked at naming#gf#gravity falls#gravity falls au#mabel pines#MY ART WOO#the henchmaniacs in the background look so silly…. i couldn’t bother to draw them better im sorry#okay i’m not sorry#except for pyronica; i’m actually sorry i didn’t spend more time drawing her#forgive me god for i have sinned (not drawn pyronica pretty enough) </3#i don’t think this trick will work with my minimal amount of followers but if anyone is interested i could yap about this au for hours#despite the fact that its kinda unfinished lol#chaotic-neutral Mabel au

#smthn cozy to end out the year ^_^ i love u gay people#no one point out that their tree this year had rainbow lights that simply was not the lighting vision i had in my heart so i ignored it ok#i started drawing this before we even knew they GOT a tree this year so just play pretend with me. thank you#hope everyone notices the very important fuji cameo say hi to fuji everyone ^_^#also playing kinda fast and loose with the actual lounge setup for the sake of composition. so everyone ignore that too#and focus on what really matters: that i worked really hard staring at my own sweater to make the pattern totally accurate for dan’s.#and also their gay ski lift dinosaurs always and forever amen#ANYWAY. last art of 2024 for the people wheeeeee ^_^#dan and phil#phan#phanart

Dark Secret
So! Danny was discovered pretty quickly after his first battle against the Lunch Lady. His hair turned white, and his body shape was a little different, but he largely looked very similar to his Human Form, so it was only a matter of time really.
Thankfully he was assumed to be a Metahuman.
He didn't look like any other Ghost, the closest resemblance was his hair and eye color, but even that could be explained away. Also his parents were adamant that he couldn't be a Ghost because he was still Sentient and not Evil, so he must just have powers that just looked similar to Ghost Powers esthetically. Probably as a result of the Portal Accident, which he used as an explanation for how his powers awakened.
Danny also avoided using the more obvious Ghost Powers like Intangiblity and Invisiblity, sticking mostly to the most basic Flight and Energy based Powers he got to be as generic as possible. If anybody saw otherwise, it was a trick of the light or a trick of the Ghosts.
Danny became the Hero of Amity Park, always pretending to be something else. It was his darkest secret.
Unfortunately because the public never saw a Ghost like Phantom on a positive light, their perception of Ghosts never changed. Nobody believed that Ghosts could be anything aside from Evil, and as the knowledge of Ghosts and the Ghost Zone began to spread around the world that perception became more and more commonplace.
If Danny had been revealed in the early days, it could have been salvageable, but nowadays if his secret was revealed he would have to convince the entire world that everything they knew about Ghosts was wrong. It would practically be impossible.
Even when he joined the Justice League when he became an Adult, he still had to hide his secret. Years of hiding made sure he could conceal his true Nature from the magic users on the team, but he still had to be distant from the team just to be sure.
While all this was going on in the Living Realm, his adventures in the Ghost Zone still happened as normal. He saved Pandora and the Acropolis, dethroned the Tyrant King Aragon, managed to defeat Pariah Dark in Single combat, and even became recognized as a Great Warrior by the Far Frozen.
After years of hiding, he actually felt more at home in the Ghost Zone than in the Human Realm. There he could be his true self without having to hide a huge part of his identity, and people accepted him for who he was. Sure he had enemies there, but he also had more real friends outside of Tucker and Sam.
He was content with his double life, acting as a Hero to the Public while hiding his true self, and secretly going to the Ghost Zone to be himself among his friends and even his enemies.
Of course it all came crashing down when he Anti Ecto Acts finally passed.
Now there was a Legal Path for Humans to enter and profit off of the Ghost Zone. Beyond just being able to legally kill and experiment on Ghosts, the Acts also allowed Humans to claim parts of the Ghost Zone as their own Property, enslaving the Ghosts residing there, and destroying the Ecosystem of the Zone because there were no laws preventing it.
And now Danny had a choice.
He could either side with the Humans to which he was a Hero, allowing them to destroy the Ghost Zone and Enslave the denizens living there with the full support of the Government, or he could side with the Ghost Zone, betraying Humanity and the people he had been protecting for years, but trying to save those who had accepted him for his true self years ago.
To him the answer was obvious.
#Dpxdc#Dp x dc#Dcxdp#Dc x dp#Danny Phantom#Dc#Dcu#I'm back#Kinda#This idea has been circulating in my Drafts for months but I finally got around the fleshing or out#Basically Danny pretends to be a Metahuman to the public while existing as a Ghost in secret#He loves going to the Ghost Zone to explore the Cultures that he is now a part of#The Anti Ecto Acts are bigger than in Canon#Originally they were rushed through because there was nobody to protect the people against the Ghosts#(They didn't consider Phantom as a Protector) (just another threat waiting to happen)#But with a “Real” Hero there to stop the Ghosts they took more time to work on the Acts and add even more horrible parts to it#The JL actually supports the Acts#Even JL Dark believes that Realms Ghosts are too dangerous to be allowed in the Human Realm#Though they think the Acts are a little much they don't really care because “Ghosts are evil/dangerous”#When Danny “betrays” Humanity to side with the Ghosts is comes as a Huge Shock#Despite having been distant many heroes thought of him as a friend#So this Betrayal actually gets to them#Its even worse when it's discovered that Danny was a Ghost as well#They rationalize that Danny must have been killed and become a Ghost recently and nobody noticed because of his Ecto-Contamination/Powers-#-making it hard to tell that he was different

Hi Gigi :3
Are we gonna get a hold them down animation? Or no because the uncomforty topic?
that's up for the future to decide
I'll be busy with commissions up until february I think, so util then I won't be working on any Epic animatics
and then once I have time again I'll finish God Games
and after that I kinda want to do Legendary-
#why do I draw like I'm running out of time#every day I draw like I'm running out of time#I would definitely enjoy making a hold them down animatic#the vocals on this song are simply too divine I love Antinous' voice so much#like when he died I actually got kinda upset just because I wanted to hear him sing more#even though the song is a bit too dark for what I normally work on I think I could make it work in my style#I'd just make the gruesome descriptions these very subtle drawings that wouldn't last long#and let the lyrics get the message across better than the visuals#gigi's asks#epic the musical
