#IM the best. ME. its ME. I AM.

[isnotanoctopus]

So I work at an afterschool program, and I love working w/ kids so much, but I especially love working with teens who have the same sarcastic friend-foe sense of humor I do, cuz like...

I have a ''rivalry'' with a fourteen y/o at my job. He has proclaimed himself the best artist in the building, and routinely says he can draw better than me, based off of having only ever seen my shitty one minute whiteboard doodles - and anything I show him he responds to with 'I could do better tho'.

So today he was showing off his artist skills, and I whipped out my phone to show him what I drew last night, expecting the usual response.

Only for him to stand there gaping. And then finally gesturing and going ''ok well that's GOTTA BE CGI--''

I had to zoom in to show him the grainy pen texture. And finally... I have won the hard-won battle. He admitted defeat, and proclaimed himself second best artist in the entire building. I am the winner. ᕙ(•̀‸•́‶)ᕗ take that, fourteen year old child.

Riz: Yeah. - Yeah! - let's make another one.

[pixlatedvampire]

hi the literal whole entire reason i made these was bc i watched this 10 sec clip on youtube pls watch

[starkspi]

From "Unadulterated Loathing" in which Charlie chains these two idiots accidentally together by @otsmosis (who made this comment at the end of the last chapter and inspired me to do whatever this is above)

[goozeghost]

That one scene from the first book or whatevar 🤷‍♂️

Told yall i could make actually good art

[night-creeps]

POV: you knocked on Liam's door

[ganondoodle]

( OC, Eadrya, they/them, water demon )

"Oh don't look at me like that, is this the first time you've drawn blood or what? do it again! had a nice sting to it-" (Eadrya to Shargon, likely the first time Shargon's ever dared to fight them instead of fleeing immediately like his life depended on it ... bc it did)

finally gave Eadrya their deserved post character arc design (instead of doing what i should be)

since i know my handwriting isnt always readable, heres a short an overly long explanation of the context (oops)

(recap, the demon world was invaded and is believed to be destroyed, Eadrya lost a fight for the first time in their life to a celestial and survived by sheer luck and kindness of a little fishing village in the human realm, which kind of broke their pride and kickstarted their arc- (here i drew the lady in charge of the village before, though Eadryas design here is also a little out of date again ..)

-skipping alot in between that and the end of their arc bc that would jsut be too long for this post)

Eadrya helped other Lords and Shargon (with Midas and Idri) escape from a trap set by hunters but was captured themself, since it was the first time hunters managed to catch a Lord they 'researched' alot about demons using them .. by torturing them (demons are not considered sentient by people at large)

they managed to escape but were hunted down immediately, even Eadrya with their immense magic overproduction and abillity to recover was too drained (both literally of their strength -since the most effective way to hurt/immobilize a demon is draining them of their magic/blood faster than they can recover it- AND mentally) to easily avoid them and instead turned to killing, making them relapse into their old bloodthirst which lead to them spiraling into thinking that it is all they are ever good for and they will never be able to change-

Thor (with Idri) were on their way to free them after being informed of Eadryas capture ( Thor is Eadryas best and only friend ) but when they arrived it had already escalated so far that they went after killing Thor as well, now firmly believing Thor was never their friend but was simply trying to tame them out of fear of their power (not completely wrong ..). despite Thor with his two hearts being able to give Eadrya a second chance they decide to go for killing him twice, unintentionally missing the second time but doing enough damage for Thor to .. essentially fall into a near death condition; thinking they actually killed him everything starts to fall apart further as they realize over time they have changed after all but it is too late now-

Eadrya then flees into a snowy mountain range far away and lives there in complete isolation for several months (as a sort of .. self punishment and convinced of that being the best choice for everyone, they are a danger, they have no one left anyway etc trying to cope with it all) and thus grows out their fur (yes they always had fur, just short and slick like a seals fur) which they keep even after reuniting with Thor and everyone else later down the line

(the golden rope they wear in the picture was made by Thor during the time he was recovering and searching for them with the solar pirates (long story..), its not a good quality but he tried his best ... the two beads on it symbolize Thors two hearts (thunder and fire, blue and red)- Eadrya treasures it dearly)

so funnily enough, despite looking much wilder now they are actually much better in their self control and general health :P

Au where people call them The Power Couple 👁️

[muscariii]

Hiiii people. I am fully back.

I passed all my assignments and stuff and I'm officially done with my first year of art school!

I was very exhausted near the end so I couldn't bring myself to post but now that I'm done I will be more active again!! I also plan to make a post with oc stuff that I was making for my portfolio for uni stuff (which got accepted btw!!). As a treat for like the five people that enjoy my oc drawings :'3

So, as usual. Morrowind. I was thinking about the comic and all and I started wondering about what Dagoth looks like. And then it turned into this idea that he wears his mask for a reason so I did this drawing of him with scars on his face. I think it could be interesting. I also made him blind in one eye and the third one is missing. Maybe he uses a glass one for that?

I'll draw some more tomorrow but I'm happy to hear some opinions!!

And of course it wouldn't be a muscari™️ post without Rasha. The one with Nerevar is a reference to that one picture of Trixie Mattel.

The other one is a little ref sheet with Rasha's expressions that is mainly for the comic but I'll also put it on artfight later (I'm updating a few refs I had there).

That's it for today!! I'll be back pretty quick though!!

[sunjestic]

director's commentary for the Kintsugi comic i posted last week. i put a lot of thought into it, and i really wanted to talk about it.... i am a yapper

i am once again begging y'all to read this fic-

[deoidesign]

For my birthday... read my webcomic! It's literally free! (Unless you want books. Those are not free)

It's beautiful, it's gentle, it's funny, they're canonically t4t and gay... And it's about time traveling vampires solving supernatural mysteries!

I've spent thousands of hours writing and drawing it, and it's really good! I'm not biased!

It's on hiatus right now and coming back in 2 months, so it's the perfect time to get caught up
