Not to get lost in the narratives and such, but I think it's a wild thing to take a young player with fire in his belly who will be the first to admit that he was never even the best player in his junior teams made it to the NHL it's because he clawed his way thru via any means necessary, and to tell him, I want you to look at this example of all things beautiful about hockey, and do everything exactly as he does it.

And how all of that, instead of breeding resentment can turn into devotion. I'm thinking of faith and how Bergy will be the first to talk about all the ways in which Marchy made his game better, of two people who pushed and balanced and completed each other, who worked so well because they were so different in so many ways, two people who would suck at being each other. And what happens when, you say now you take over. Now you lead, on your own.

And I guess I'm also thinking of that 22 year old with a chip on his shoulder who was told: you will never be the best player on ice as long as he is on the ice, so I want you to be second best.

Hi! Excuse my anonymity, you’re super cool and I’m super anxious

I’m an artist starting out on tumblr, do you have any advice for getting my work out there to more people?

I understand if you can’t really answer, but you’re one of my favorite Tumblr artists, so i figured I would come here!

Sorry if this caused any inconvenience-

hm... i think my best advice is to be consistent(ish), confident, and to tag accurately!

people tend to respond more to posts where the creator is positive about their own work - in the post body, and in the tags. even if it's something you're not sure you like, Someone will, and they'll be more likely to interact if the work has confidence (fake it till you make it! it) this also does wonders for mental health surrounding your own work - it's been my method for a while and it's not half bad!

with tags, make sure your search tags are within the first 20 (or they won't count) and that they're accurate. people Will get annoyed / report you as spam if you tag, say, a picture of a peach with "grapes" or "will smith". but thorough accurate tagging makes sure your work is in sight of as many people searching for the subject as possible

and another thing that can help is adding on a little "reblogs are appreciated" to the post body (or the first tag, but i'd suggest the post itself so that the phrase sticks with rb-s). it's a nice, non-pushy way of enticing people to reblog - a simple phrase like that can add a little extra delight to reblogging, & it makes rb-ers feel like they've helped out! which, yk. they have!

(and to anyone reading this who doesn't really post & is new to tumblr, reblogs do wonders - they keep tumblr running and creators creating. if you like a post, why not show it by reblogging too? it only takes a second to make someone's day!)

Got a Rat Patrol Cake for my Birthday 😊

My brother @daughterofhecata sends his thanks for hat references and a "Please draw Moffit, I couldn't figure out that fucking beret!"

Oh my gosh I can't handle how cute that cake is TT^TT stupendous! The little hats to represent all the characters is seriously so perfect!! I hope you had a very good birthday ^^

Also yeah, I went to have a look at the beret and the reason you can't figure it out is probably a) because all the hats in this show are so so so hard to draw and b) because the ridiculous sand goggles strike again

Apparently he has a Royal Tank Regiment beret, which is worn at a slight angle over the right eye. This in and of itself is pretty easy to draw. Unfortunately almost all the pictures of Moffitt include my arch-nemesis, Those Stupid Goggles, and if you put big, heavy goggles with a big, heavy strap around a soft, wool cap then guess what! it becomes a squished, nonsensical mess! Completely indecipherable! Here is my best understanding of it

Did you know that Alberta and Saskatchewan were once originally going to be one province named Buffalo?

for the purposes of this ask we are ignoring that Buffalo has become a bit of a buzzword for right wing western separatist parties :T; I wouldn't say it was "originally" going to be a combined province, it was just an idea that the wealthy and powerful ranchers across the southern districts really liked because it would help fuel their dream of turning the entire thing into grazing land for cattle.

Maddy did originally live in the district of Assiniboia and was sort of added to Alberta at the last minute, which is why she wasn't paying any attention to the battle to become capital of Alberta at all. Nowadays, the city of Lloydminster is the "closest" to Saskatchewan by virtue of literally being the only city in the country to span two provinces. There is a mural there to celebrate the 2005 centennial of the two provinces called Buffalo Twins.

We may not live together (as central Canada was too afraid of our potential combined awesomeness... surely) but our neighbour to the east is always borrowing our stuff anyways. Like our tendency towards austerity cuts, or Edmonton's entire lacrosse team >:'T tsk!

Civilian Tim au where hes one of those guys whose job it is to just try to break into places just to see if he can

apropos of nothing, love the fact that luffy is basically a human garbage disposal. dude won’t let any food go to waste. that’s great. but i also just imagine that developing a food allergy would do him in. throat could be closing up and sanji that’s delicious, thanks for dinner, no chopper, he’s fine. can he have fourths, no he isn’t wheezing, that’s just how he breathes when the food is that good.

oliver talking to ethan besbin really makes the whole thing seem so much funnier. like yes we did trap the ghost of a man who got so scared of moving fast & turn him into the train schedule. why? well the thing is, he is deeply autistic and he's the only one powerful enough to fix the mess that is boston transit

Snork and Snorkmaiden's relationship in the books is so funny

They are the most sibling sibling characters that exist I love them

hi! this isn't important this is just an update on my arting.

so recently my friend told me that a 3d modeling software that is(on my terms) expensive actually had a smaller free version. so I had to check it out!... it was fine! there are many limitations, but in the end I couldn't complain cause it's all I got. my computer is so old that now not even blender works.

so yea, I wanted to practice 3d sculpting again! it was cool. once I got comfortable I decided that I would try something fun and try to sculpt a demony Sebastian :D my computer died and I lost it all :D and I thought about doing grelle but long hair and glasses without adding new shapes is just hard. so on my last straw, this is my first sculpt😧

it's fine. I wanted to paint it though, and I couldn't do that on the program. I spent maybe an hour trying to find a model painting software, and it didn't work. in the end I gave up and just painted over the image, so that's that!

at first I was proud that I managed to make him look like a poor quality mobile game character cause that seems appropriate for my skill level. but now as I'm staring at it I'm scared he's gonna suddenly do some weird emote and now it's ruined. oh well, thanks if you read this, have a good day!
