HEY YO WHAT'S THAT?

I finally opened my Etsy! It's just the keychains I previewed before for now, but I'll be adding more options for those over time, as well as things like prints and digital products!
HERE'S THE LINK (X)
Look at these things!!!




(Senshi for Size)
Excited to finally get stuff out! Thank you for coming along on this journey with me!
HERE'S THE LINK AGAIN (X)
Weird thing to tack on maybe, but also if you wanna just throw me a buck or two, my ko-fi(x) is currently set up as a tip jar! I would super appreciate it, and it would help me be able to keep providing my silly little content!
BIG LOVE!

Want people to appreciate the mundane art around them. Not just the beauty of real life but one big fear I have with GenAI is the art people don’t largely think about very much or appreciate is sadly the likely thing to be effected first.
Arts and photography on greeting cards, calendars, patterns on a shirt, even just the simple designs on the display boxes for make up at the dollar store, that largely reaches the masses without credit of who made that art or took that photo that people often barely glance at even when they buy the product.
I want to hope and pray these corporations continue to pay for a clip art or photography subscription, willing to license an artists work or hire them for work to use on their product, and not switch to just generate muck.

This got worse over the last 24 hours.
I'll potentially update later but I'm glad I added this was a hypothesis and not a solid conclusion.
There's been a full Pepe Silvia red string board over this.
I just went down and massive rabbit hole (not the deepest I've ever been in but it surely is one)
I was trying to figure out what instrument Kristoff was playing in Reindeers Are Better Than People.
I tried to Google it and there was no true consensus. I got a ton of results from a mandola to a ukelele to yknow. A lute. Which most people seemed to agree it was just a poorly modeled lute.
Which doesn't make any sense to me. Making up an instrument in that stage and figuring out how he'd play it and how it would potentially sound is MORE work than giving the people doing the designing and modeling a real world reference. It would not make sense to give him a 100% fake instrument in a very short scene.
So I went digging, and almost went insane, because the more I looked at it the more it became clear it wasnt a lute.
This is a lute

This is what Kris is playing
Here's a clearer image

(I checked to see if it matched the instrument in the movie. It does EDIT: for the most part. The one in the movie doesn't have frets, but the one in the illustration does, which seems to be a mistake on part of the illustrator)
It has 3 pegs but 4 strings. Im going to focus on it having 4 singular strings, though, because the pegs may be explainable in another way.
I was about to absolutely lose it because I could not find a single instrument that matched it. It's not a Mandola, because it's TOO tear drop shaped, but it' not a normal lute either, and any more Scandanavian/ Nordic instruments derived from around the era or before doesnt match it either.
But then I went.
Cittern
That fifth one? It lookes super similar.
So, problem solved, right? It's a little bit of a wonky cittern. Case closed.
Except I dug some more for clarity.
And I noticed most cittern are pretty flat.


And this continued in every search. It was already hard to find one with 4 strings, but the shape? It still doesnt match.
But by accident, I stumbled upon a close, but technically entirely different instrument.
It is not a mandola, or a ukelele
It is not a cittern
And it aint a lute
It's most likely a 4 single stringed medeival/renaissance gittern.
It has the teardrop shape, wide circular body, uneven pegs, and would have been around in the era. It would be an old instrument that was out of style, but they hadn't fully faded into obscurity yet due to the lute's growing popularity, and Kristoff Bjorgman having a relatively old instrument tracks to me, given how he is as a person and the little we know about him pre-film. So "yeah I'd believe it."
Here's a video of the person who created the one with the red backdrop because I think it's cool and wanna shout them out. (And also to demonstrate how the instrument is played, which seems to match)
youtube
The movie sounds more like a guitar? But I'd be more willing to believe that than they just made up an instrument and had it played weirdly. We dont even use lion sounds for lions or eagles for eagles. An obscure stringed instrument is not out of the question.
The only thing making me still scratch my head is why it has 3 pegs with 4 strings, because I am having trouble finding any other instrument that has the previously stated requirements and that one as well. The head in the ones I sent is also not consistent with the one in the film, but lowkey I found paintings and photos of some with more similar heads so I'm not too pressed on that.
Timeframe wise the gittern was popular during the end of the medieval period and beginning of the Renaissance period, which means it was ripe for the Northern Renaissance which started in the area that Frozen aesthetically takes after.
This is my current hypothesis and I think it's worth noting and has some level of backing.
I am very tired, but I had to share this with the masses. I am going back in my hole.

I just made a notably not-short post about Kristoff's instrument and Tumblr decided it needed a content warning and Im going to scream.

My physical health has been not so stellar. I am in a lot of pain right now. I recorded this when I was feeling a little better. Wanted to share what I had. Should stop typing. Thank you very much. ♡

Amendment to the swearing statement: you would need your fingers and toes to count but hilariously you can tell all of those came when the language of the people I was around changed haha.
The ratio from when this blog started to my 5 very slow non-existant years is wildly leaning recent.
And I can just. Stop doing that.
I've been keeping this blog (mostly) appropriate for younger audiences since it started. I think I can count on one hand the amount of times I've even sworn (The one animation of Hans and Eugene is an outlier, from what I can remember.) From what I can remember, any other "inappropriate" statements are childish enough in nature where I'd put them under "stupid jokes a teen would make", highkey because I was the stupid teen!
It wasn't an outright intention, my humor just skews that way, and I may be misremembering. But overall I try to keep things pretty light.
I've been considering either making a blog where the rules are stated and stricter, or a blog where the rules are stated and looser. Unsure which. Just know it's been on my mind to create spaces for my works aimed at a younger audience that are also aimed at a younger audience.

#dingaling crossing#been thinking about this a lot#TG is purposefully aimed at tweens and more intently boys but I prefer all genders content overall#rememdium has a slightly older target and is inherently more mature due to subject matter#But the subject matter is what makes it mature not the humor or direct writing#I think the most Adult thing I'm making is my shirt film Waterboys#Which is actually meant to harken back to irreverent 2000s teen movie comedy#so like. yeah no.#rambling excuse me

I normally don't reblog things for signal boost onto this blog, overall I try to keep to myself and my own work, but I finally opened the kickstarter page for this and the big idea behind it moved me.
I'm someone who has recently been focusing on animation for tweenage kids, and I think it's SO important. The target audience for TG as I've been working on it has been tweens, and I haven't mentioned that so much in public, but seeing this really makes me want to say more and work harder to make that kind of media.
It feels like that age range has so little for itself right now. I know for me the shows I consumed as a tween shaped me into a better person, if not just who I became over time.
Those years are formative. They need things to walk with them through it.
I don't have any money. I can't even keep myself afloat. But this mission is so important to me I want to do the best I can to help it reach people who can make it a reality. If nothing else, make it clear that it's something that needs more attention.
Give what you can and share this around! I've liked what I've seen of the show itself so far, so I really think it's worth it ♡
LETS KEEP IT MOVING!! PLEDGE TO THE ZIPPED UP KICKSTARTER!!
Having passed the 40 Day mark, we’ve still got a ways to go!! We’ve got so much cooking up for you all to see, but we still need your help to reach our goal!!
PLEDGE TO OUR KICKSTARTER FOR MERCH AND REWARDS!! SPREAD THE WORD!! SUPPORT IT ANYWAY YOU CAN!!
LETS KEEP IT MOVING!!
