I haven't draw anything in 8 days so to maintain the balance of course I've made 6 sketches in one day. 7 actually, but one don't look good enough for now

I also feel like a complete shit so as a coping mechanism I'm going to obsess over one thing for the next month and it happened to be polpru, there will be more sketches soon

Not planned theme: metal concert

The last one is unrelated to the concert, but is from fanfic I'm currently writing. I won't tell you the context yet, only that he just woke up in the middle of the night from the nightmare.

Lietpru ink doodles, I believe both refs are from Hamlet.

i like that poland isn't super great to lithuania all the time and lithuania's still willing to call poland a friend because poland really works at trying to be a better person despite his flaws and lithuania fortified his spine to finally enforce some boundaries

i love growth 🥰

Didn't mean to be antagonistic so im sorry about that. You're doing fine as a writer. i only want to give feedback as the reader and you can do with it as you please.

it's fine don't worry! I certainly didn't mean to come off as a dick either. I also intended my response as more of a general psa. Again, it's fine to point things out, but sometimes it can feel tiring when people only point out your mistakes but have no praise at all (which is not aimed at you, I'm glad you're enjoying the fic!). But I also wanted to be a bit proactive here and just generally get this out here

[herbstklaenge]

and i promise this is not mean-spirited, and I'm always willing to accept constructive criticism and improve, but i also wonder if every single mistake needs pointing out? Is it really this bad if there is one tiny mistake over like 18k words when the mistake doesn't really impede the overall story and doesn't cause harm? Like, I'm not attacking anon at all, I tend to be a perfectionist and it's perfectly okay to let me know when I make a mistake, but none of us are professional writers (I assume), and one wrong word isn't the end of the world imo

[herbstklaenge]

As an english speaker, the words are so different that it forced me to stop reading. I hope you change the word soon! The fic seems good so far and im glad to have more prupol to read.

ok i'm going to be honest i took a while to figure out a good response to this

i'm glad you're enjoying the fic so far and i hope you'll stick around

i corrected the mistake now

look, i'm always down for corrections, be it grammar, spelling, vocabulary or some historical inaccuracy that i've missed. But i'm also gonna be blunt with you (and this is not primarily directed at you, anon, this is also a general psa): i'm not a native english speaker. I studied this language for 12 years in school, I've used it extensively since then, I officially hold a C1 certificate - and guess what, i'm still going to make mistakes! it happens! Sometimes my grammar might be off, sometimes my sentence structure might be off, sometimes I'll confuse words. And again, I appreciate it when someone lets me know, but it's also just something I have limited control over. I understand that mistakes like this can throw people off, but honestly (and i'm not trying to sound antagonistic or like a dick here, believe me) if it bothers you so much that it "forced [you] to stop reading" and that one wrongly used word is so terrible that I absolutely have to correct it, then that's also kind of a you problem in my opinion. And I promise I'm not trying to be mean, but I also need people to give me a bit of grace when it comes to mistakes like this bc otherwise this is going to start feeling like a school assignment, and I don't want that

again, thanks for letting me know, but I fear it's going to happen more than once

I know I should be finishing "duality" and "multiverse theory" first, but I accidentally wrote an entire 5k-word script for a new fanfiction with them and I'm not sure what to do now

I don't like starting new thing without finish the previous one, and I also have to find a name for a female German shepherd, so I guess it can wait

I have one idea for a dog name, but it's really bad idea.

[herbstklaenge]

Jsyk it looks like the word for bird beaks has been replaced by the word "beacons" in Iron Skies in ch 1.

thank you for pointing that out, i did not know that beacons and beaks are not the same thing! i might edit it once i get around to it

[herbstklaenge]

btw, chapter 3 of Iron Skies is out now!

Lazy day

Based on the painting "babie lato" by Józef Chełmoński (below)

I'm extremely not satisfied with my art skills right now, I going back to practice the most basic stuff but I just can't not to draw, so to not waste too much time I'll be doing only sketches, maybe I'll color something from time to time
