Thomas wasn’t quite sure what the wooden monstrosity presented him was.

(full story below)

It was a poor attempt of whittling, in all honesty. James had been limited in tools and he had not actually whittled anything before..or properly seen anybody do it really. He just sort of stole Jacks knife and did his damn best.

Getting beaten would absolutely be worth it! (It really wasn’t, considering what he actually produced. I mean he was 11. What did he expect?)

At first, he had tried to carve it out with one of their little sharp stick things that he was forced by Jack to wield but it did not work at all.

The damn things were bloody useless and James stuck by that. He supposed they could pierce the skin of a pig well enough to be effective,or a Simon,though he reckoned that teeth or nails would be more affective. He supposed the other boys-in their smashed bottle mentality-had flairs for the dramatic even he couldn’t quite quite grasp.

Thomas Jude Smith did actually quite like them,though,James would argue that Tommy had good reason. He fancied them drawing sticks. Or well,’well-intentioned evil-plotting and who is most likely ranking lists’ sticks.

Off topic.

The whittling!

It was a toy boat! Or a hell-sent mimicry of a toy boat that could not fool a blind man.

He had decided it best to use the mucky, repulsive warpaint for some good and paint the boat to look a little more…boat like. The war paint freaked Tommy out. Too ‘dutty’. James’ was symmetrical. It was acceptable. If James had to wear it it best be symmetrical, not smudged (unless it was white, the white looked nice smudged) and god forbid a stripe be a la’al bit thicker than another.

Red smudges were an absolute no unless they were remnants of stains he couldn’t quite get out. They reminded Tommy of blood and due to recent events he had gained quite a hatred towards blood.

“We otta be tidy, red velvet cake.” He’d often say with an anxious smile and hands wracked with tremors that often overshadowed the fact that he had taken to calling James a ‘red velvet cake’ since he had started ‘caking’ on his warpaint which Thomas often compared to makeup. A mockery but James didn’t mind. It was banter not bullying.

Off topic!! Another thing Thomas insistently said was that when he got off the island his granda Felix was going to get him a lovely little toy boat for his birthday.

Thomas adored boats. He knew the names of at least 5 different boats. Since being on the island, he was starting to forget them. Particularly the different names of those navy, military ones.

He used to brag about how he definitely knew more about boats than Ralph could ever know and his daddy didn’t even need to step foot into the navy. He was doing all the proper fighting, with guns and that but he’d be home soon.

Ambrose Smith didn’t like the war. In fact, he had even tried organising protests against it with Auntie Katty before he was drafted. (It failed miserably but Tommy would never tell anyone that or any unimpressive thing about himself for that manner.)

Off topic!

Granda Felix and the toy boat!

Lately, Thomas had been rather down. You see, Tommy knew that Ralph’s downfall was inevitable though he’d always assumed it would be through the other boys rightfully appointing him as leader. Definitely not Jack going batty and running a totalitarian state, anyhow.

Being an active opposer of Jack was slightly scary. With Roger going stick crazy, Jack going more mental by the second and Ralph and Piggy being nowhere to be seen Tommy had sort of been on his last footing and Joseph was no help anymore.

I mean not to be rude to the poor bastard but he’d been going battier than Simon. Wandering around aimlessly without a care in the world-in fact in another world entirely would be a better descriptor-wasn’t helpful when trying to get out of the way of hunts.

Having a ‘hes alright’ relationship with Corny and red velvet cake would only get Tommy so far and Joseph didn’t have that at all with Cornelius.

Tommy spent half a day hoping Piggy would sneak up to him and they could formulate some sort of plan.

Cornelius often attested that Piggy was long dead and waiting around for him like some lost puppy was not at all helpful. Thomas didn’t believe that for a second.

Piggy was smart. Very smart. He was good with the maths and science and Tommy was absolutely no good with it so anyone who was were always instantly impressive to him. Tommy figured that if a boulder were to start hurtling towards Piggy, he would sense it even if he was caught up in talking and would be able to use his maths and science to get away from it.

Cornelius would often reply with “Well theres no wonder you’re getting an E then isn’t it?” Tommy often assumed Cornelius was praising him for his clear intellect. James often found use for sticks at moments like that.

Off topic. Anyways, suffice to say, Tommy needed a pick me up. James figured:whats the point in waiting an eternity to get off the island to get a toy boat when James could make him a 10x cooler one on the island?

James didn’t have the humility to admit his toy boat probably wasn’t 10x better than Granda Felix’s.

They met up upon the rocky cliff face just south of castle rock;it was a risky move for Tommy, in all honesty.

As James handed him the poor excuse of a toy boat, it took Tommy a few seconds to recognise what exactly it was other than a lump of wood. He had the sense to know James wouldn’t gift him a lump of wood. When Tommy realised it was a toy boat all for him, however, he gasped. His mouth agape, he stared at the boat for a few moments before grinning and giggling wildly as he snatched it from James’ hands.

“A proper boat like what Granda was garn get us!!” He exclaimed. Thomas was, admittedly rather impressed with James’ craftsmanship. The poorly crafted work of children was often impressive to other children after all, particularly because they know they wouldn’t be able to do much better. Tommy didn’t have an artistic bone in his body so it was extra impressive.

“Well aye! Probly better than what ya granda was garn get ya, eh.” James stated, grinning at Tommy’s elated reaction.

“Maybe, I ‘spose.” Tommy shrugged, quickly blowing a strand of chestnut brown hair out of his eyes as it fell out of place and over his face.

“Deff.” James asserted.

“Aye but me granda’s quite good wiv making things, eh.” Tommy reasoned, lifting the boat in the air as he carefully observed it and it’s ‘impressive’ craftsmanship.

“Not as good as us.” James snickered proudly, placing a hand upon his painted chest.

“Right…”

Tommy found arguing with an egoist like James pointless.

Slothquisitor Wants to Draw Your Tav/Durge!

Hi friends! As you've probably noticed, I've been trying to get better at art, especially drawing people. I really love making art for other people, and I finally feel like my skills have progressed to where I'd like to offer some free sketches. My spring break is coming up, and I'd love to draw your Tav/Durge.

So, here's the deal. I'm attaching a Google Form where you can submit stuff to me. This is just the easiest way for me to keep everything organized. You can give me some information about your Tav/Durge including screenshots and faceclaims (this is a requirement, I still very much need references).

You fill out the form and you'll get a headshot sketch in the style shown here:

I get more art practice that'll challenge me, you get art of your Tav/Durge, and everyone wins.

Here are a few rules: 1. Please no Dragonborn Tav/Durges. I love them, but I'm not so great at drawing them. 2. I don't anticipate this post to blow up, but I do reserve the right to cap the entries if it reaches an overwhelming amount. 3. This is a thing I am doing for free and for fun, so please be patient while I work on them. But I will do my very best to complete all requests. 4. Obviously, it'd be cool if you were a follower, but it's not a requirement.

You can like or reblog this post if you want, but be sure to fill out the form if you want to participate.

If you have any questions, my askbox is open!

Here's the link to the form.

More Captain Underpants Movie Art style Study! This time with Cap and Krupp, tbh despite them being literally egg/avocado shaped they're REALLY hard to draw—–

[trashfactorysstuff]

Recently I found myself practicing again animation and what a nice way to do it with them?

This was the first one and yeah, looks wonky as hell but I was literally on my first animation in years after I lost my meme animation era. I use a mix of the kick up and that azula jump. I really love how I can play with firebending techniques with actual movements that can be applied for it.

Here I start using Naruto Shippuden as a main reference + plus for the funzies.

Last one just my daily lovely brothers spending time together. I’m a true believer that Iroh was a very mean older brother and yeah, Ozai on his daily figths with Iroh.

It was fun to make animations again, since I really love animation but y’know, just facing some fears of not being that good but we all start in something, rigth?

+ The two second animations are based on Naruto Shippuden, where Naruto and Sasuke figth. I use them just a reference!!

+ reminder that I have my instagram acc where I’m mostly active and where I’m constantly more of a cursed person.

[spooksier]

lover, you should’ve come over (or: link and zelda’s no good, very bad 10,005 years)

[sysig]

Ohh I would love to request a redraw of one of your strangels sketches ♥♥♥ if it's not too much trouble hehe, thanks!

Day 19 - The privilege ✨

[moonchild-in-blue]

Hiiiii! If you have a minute, look up both Phyllopteryx taeniolatus and Phycodurus eques! (Not necesseraly for a critter drawing just for looking at pretty things, because either would be a nightmare to draw probably with the shapes and colours.) But they look gorgeous none the less! I've been made aware of them by @murkyquirky and they are gorgeous! *v*

!!!! I have so many minutes to look at those bad boys!!! I LOVE sea dragons SO much aaaaa. Sea horses get all the fame but their cousins are so superior imo. Like, legit literal sea fairies 🧚‍♀️🐉🌿 (also, you can't tell me what to do (/j) SO! DRAWINGS BE UPON YE!)

Phyllopteryx Taelionatus aka Common Seadragon or Weedy Seadragon (ha!) & Phycodurus Eques aka Leafy Seadragon (my personal favourites)

What's funny is that, unlike bugs which are super symmetrical and rigid, these bad boys are 1000x more fun and easier to draw.

Cus I can lowkey bullshit my way with leafy-like fluid shapes, splash on a little colour and badabing badaboom, you got yourself a Leafy Boy 🌱🐉

(if i scheduled this right and if tumblr cooperates, i should have a little extra something posted after this 👀)

[wat-dha-fak]

hello and welcome to "drawing ideas i only got during a walk and pissed me off they arrived so late", featuring the one dragalia character i indulge myself drawing

[kiose]

I had the absolute pleasure of doing this commission for @dan-chan-rn as a cover for their Entry for the Fimfic crackship contest ✨ Be sure to go give the story a read! (and get your dose of wholesomeness with Harshwhinny being grumpy and a teasing Celestia, what’s not to love about that?)

Bonus version with added BG under the cut

A ten-minute sketch.

ALSO If you’ve posted an Art Fight attack for me and I haven’t reblogged it, please drop me a line! I’m not online that often and my activity tab is full of old fan art that still gets notes, so it’s very easy for me to miss an @ for something. I promise I’m not ignoring you on purpose!
