silly gif with Eddie and his Other. <33 (lovinglypatpatpat-)

this idea has been sitting in my head for a long time and, finally, i was able to realise it. not the best gif, but i tried. :,)

it doesn't look very good and don't mind the poor colours and shading. this was the first time i made shadows in that app (and i hope the quality is okay--) , so this is, so to speak, a test of the pen. :p

anyways, hope you like it! tell me what do you think? :3

take care and hope you have a good rest of the week!! <33

time spent on this - 11h 44mins.

started - 12.04.2024; finished - 19.04.2024.

Try draw a little Venom blob. I dare you.

Challenge accepted!

I drew a few. Blob. Screaming blob. Grumpy blob. Flat Stanley blob. Blob lurking around the table waiting to see if someone will put down a chocolate cake.

Venom Circle Frame

Not sure which version I like best. Was done for a screenprinting workshop, though it was not the final design chosen to do and that design unfortunately ripped to I had to default to a simple wind aspect symbol for my shirt instead.

Either way, I might end up doing prints eventually if there is enough interest, so which design do you like best?

Supporter reward art! In honor of the third Venom film receiving the official title of "Venom: The Last Dance", here is a drawing of (616) Eddie Brock and the Symbiote dancing. I wonder what their song is...🥰

“Dad?”

Carl Brock didn't so much as glance back at the voice behind him.

“I got my report card today.” Eddie idly rocked on his heels, hands clasped over the aforementioned document.

More silence, except for the quiet scribbling of a pen on paper.

“I got all As again,” he tried again.

“That's nice, Edward,” his father said flatly. “Why don't you go out and play?”

Eddie felt his stomach drop, inevitably, once more. Inevitable, it seemed, this sight, this situation, over and over: he tried, and none of it mattered. He did his very best, but none of it mattered. It was never enough.

It stung.

He swallowed it down, leaving without another word. It would probably just make his father angry. And when Dad was angry, he did worse than ignore Eddie. He took things away sometimes–took his toys, his skateboard, even one of his favorite hats–for weeks. He told Eddie to go to his room and stay there for an hour, and if he left before his time was up, he'd scrub the bathroom floor instead of Ms. Dempsey.

Once he'd watched Eddie fumble with a cup of water and accidentally smash the glass on the floor, and he'd gripped Eddie's wrist hard enough to hurt, jerked him around to face him, and growled “What is wrong with you? Huh?” Eddie had been too frozen with shock to even think. Sometimes, on other occasions, when Father had gotten in his face, he'd push through the terror and pipe up, pitifully, “I'm sorry.”

“Sorry's not good enough,” was a common, muttered refrain. If he was feeling particularly angry, there would be only silence, and those cold, stony eyes boring into Eddie.

Father never hit him. He grabbed him sometimes, squeezed a little too hard like that, but he never hit. He didn't have to, though. The words both said and unsaid were enough.

Eddie felt his throat closing up as he willed his legs to carry him down the stairs, rushing past Ms. Dempsey to run outside. A hot flush came over his face and he felt so, so stupid.

Why did he think it would be different this time? Why…

He gritted his teeth.

Blinking back tears, he found the soccer ball in the side yard and dug his nails into its sides.

He would show him. He would. He had to. Father had to see. Eddie would make him see.

He was good enough. He was.

i have indeed tried and failed!

i have: black marzipan i made out of "raw marzipan", powdered sugar and food colouring. it now sits in my fridge as a symbiote ball (see my icon for reference). i could not resist nibbling on it.

i started making the batter and as i tried to beat the first egg into it my hand mixer simply up and died. i don't think i let it overheat the motor just slowed down and gave up. i started beating the eggs in by hand. i separated the batter and worried about whether The Contraption (pictured above) could really keep it separate (because i had just realised that letting one half sit and wait while the other half bakes is not a good idea on account of the basic chemical properties of baking powder).

i added some cheap red grocery store food colouring to half of the batter. it did literally nothing except make it more yellow. you can see this effect below: the darker streaks are from the batter with the red food colouring because i gave up on life and just dumped the whole thing into the tin.

hilariously, it turned out absolutely delicious. light and fluffy. but very ugly. not sure whether i should dress it up on the outside and simply ignore the inside or save the black marzipan for something else.

symbruary-wise the symbiote cake prompt didn't make it but i'm gonna try and fail to make a wormie battenburg anyway. let me know if you know how to make marzipan stick to marzipan

on which we’re watching symbiote stuff.

THE DARKNESS (2007)

cutscene movie of symbiote game :) the darkness was an image comic book written by garth ennis that fairly randomly got a video game adaptation. it is majorly 90s/00s edgy but mostly in a charming way. almost the entire cast is composed of italian new york mafiosi so it’s very funny and campy but also has some impressive storytelling beats for the time. and i would describe the symbiote as very evil and very cute. you feed it hearts instead of brains.
