“you look like you just woke up from a dream”

coming down by laying face up on the sidewalk.

theres a real cost in understanding the weight of a situation. when the intangible becomes tangible, overwhelmingly so. overwhelming.

first of its kind. one of many.

fear has settled deep inside me. "i dont really know you" yet you now know me more than anyone else.

this torment pulls on my eyes and eats my skin.

its addictive, yet it haunts me.

I won't be discussing the plot/spoilers for season 5 publicly until the English release but I will say one thing: the animation is honestly really good and they definitely undermined in the trailer for 0 expectations so that they can give us the best they got ^_^ ily Wildbrain studios and a huge thank you to the team at Wildbrain for giving us season 5 and hopefully 6 <3

Man these things kinda drive me insane because there will be months where I’m going insane drawing 5 pieces I like and I have to just choose one to put on here, then other months of famine. Oof. 2022 was a real feast or famine year.

Styx obsession, day -38: I'm gonna see Styx at the M3 festival in May! I think it'll be fun :)

Styx obsession, day 176: I've never been to Canada before but I just met Lawrence Gowan in an alley in Ottawa in the middle of the night and I know what underwear he was wearing and also when and where he bought said underwear

Chicken Run

“Chicken Run” is a movie I appreciate more and more as I grow older.

Ginger is a chicken who lives on an egg farm and desperately wants to get out. She and her friends and family all have to produce eggs or else they’ll be eaten by Mr. and Mrs. Tweedy. One day, her prayers are answered and a flying rooster named Rocky Rhodes falls out of the sky. Ginger agrees to help hide Rocky from his circus captors if he agrees to teach all the chickens to fly out of the egg farm.

While doing some research for this film, I found out that “Chicken Run” is the highest-grossing stop-motion animated movie of all time. It’s crazy to think since when you think about stop motion movies, you immediately think of “Coraline” or even Aardman’s other work, “Wallace And Gromit”. Then I thought about it for a bit and realized that this movie deserves that prestigious title. Everything about this movie is top-notch. The character designs are amazing. As a child, I was a bit scared of them because of their bulging eyes, but as an adult, I can see that it was an inspired choice. The two comedic rats have this facial structure that matches perfectly with their characters. Mrs. Tweedy just has a quality about her that makes her look rotten to the core. I seriously can’t put my finger on it because just looks like a normal person, but something about her just feels evil. The comedy actually slaps hard. As I mentioned before, the rats were funny as hell. It’s such a simple trope to put a shady business guy with a dopey partner, but it still holds up. The idiocy of Mr. Tweedy is infinitely quotable. Babs’s naiveté is hilarious, yet endearing. The story itself is brilliantly simple. They framed prisoner-of-war camps around chickens and their coops and managed to deliver heavy-hitting themes in a way that’s easily accessible for a child. This is the type of movie that I look at when I say children’s movies aren’t an excuse to make a bad movie. The standard of children’s movies shouldn’t be dumbed-down versions of other movies. The standard should just be child-friendly and accessible. Then good storytelling and creative messaging wouldn’t be mutually exclusive to movies made for children. I’ve also found out that there’s a sequel in the works for this movie so when that eventually releases, I’ll definitely be in theaters to check it out.

never done one of these so i thought i'd try it.

my 2nd full year as an Artist.... developed a lot. looking back at stuff from a year ago is painful as usual. first half of this year was mostly takarazuka. in march i started "painting", in the summer i started doing "lineless", then i realised that's basically painting but now i understood it and was having fun.

in september i started doing tons of black and white stuff to clear my head and because i was so inspired by witch hat atelier.

i want to keep improving
