Back in August, my mother, my sister and I did a three day roadtrip to Lake Placid in New York State, where the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics were hosted. We hiked and visited Adirondack natural wonders the two first days, but because my health was starting to fail me on the second day, we kept the third one for visiting the Downton Abbey costume exhibition at the Lake Placid Center for the arts.
On our way to the exhibit, we passed by the Pines Inn, formerly known as the St. Moritz Hotel, a hotel built in 1907. I had wanted to stay at that hotel, but my mom refused, saying it was in poor shape and looked haunted on the hotel booking sites (she wasn't wrong, but I love that stuff, as you know). I still insisted for us to at least visit it, and we sure did NOT regret it. We stumbled upon one of the concierges (or new owners, correct me if you see this!), and he loved my outfit so much that he gave us a tour of the hotel, including in areas closed to guests. He told us that Albert Einstein and the Kennedys had been guests at the hotel, that there was n*de sunbathing on the roof in the 1930s and that a lot of the furniture was original. Sadly, after the 80s, the hotel slowly went into decrepitude and abandonment, and many things got stolen and damaged. The new owners are currently working hard to restore the hotel, and it's indeed a lot of work.

What if he had this style for a while
Boom, he's beautiful XD
I've drawn him for my au when he's like 17/18 when he first comes to hyrule castle? I imagine him being late 20's early 30's here, way after he leaves and goes back to whichever village he came from X") hmm, I'm brainstorming- I've come up with a liiiitle bit of backstory for him so far 🤔 I really gotta get to writing it all out, jeez

+I'm looking forward to returning to my SW:IV s-cap redraw project, hopefully in a week or so :) I have a few things to deal with first, but here are some WIPs. I'm using this project to re-think my character design style for animation, improve how I approach painting backgrounds, and study shot composition.

i think the erasure of big, fat an ugly butch lesbians has created this gender void where they where known. Online presences only showing "mascs" and their comparisons to twinks more than butches is creating this strange dichotomy.
You have hyper feminine men in showcases, able to be influencers easily and in the public eye now, but the hyper masculine women are not usually at all. Its as if baby queers are getting handed a base level gender slider to get introduced to things, with the entire far left end of it chopped off, or something...
*clarifier, masc is not a bad term to use, I just feel like butch has become the less desirable version of its role somehow
