What's your take on Odysseus's trauma and recovery back in Ithaca?

*looks at all the comics I made*

Lol but really, I realistically expect it to be severely rocky. He’ll have good days, mostly bad days, but what keeps him grounded is of course his family, you know?

But imagine losing your entire fleet under your command...

...only to come back to an entire population of thousands of people, expecting that you will lead them.

What if he fails again?

#it's scary to go back believing that the loss was equivalent (even worse) than your win #Odysseus probably couldn't even function well as a king early in his return (and this time the other politicians weren't as forgiving)#thankfully his son is there #which is another comic for another day :P #Odysseus #Penelope #Telemachus #Epic the Ithaca saga #EPIC the musical #EPIC #The Odyssey #InSomniphic's Art #InSomniphic's Asks

Was looking at refs and since Viktor has two different leg braces I was wondering, do we think he wears them simultaneously?? The refs don't perfectly line up perspective-wise so it's hard to tell but parts of the one he wears during the Hexcore scenes look like they could maybe line up with the brace that he wears over his clothes, but also some parts really don't and look like they'd be super uncomfy. Also HOW does he take these on and off. Experts weigh in

#viktor #arcane #ig my assumption would be that he wears both simultaneously cause in the scene where he injects the shimmer #it seems implied that he just threw off his clothes and kept experimenting #so one might assume he was already wearing the smaller one underneath #tho it is a funny image to think of him just being like 'one sec i gotta go all the way home and grab my other brace to do this'#he can take off the back brace too cause hes not wearing it in the scene where he's in the hospital bed and you can see his shoulder #where the strap would be #but that one seems to make even less sense functionality wise #everything looks like its screwed together #or screwed INTO him #but only the top bolts on his spine are i think #in the close ups of his back brace model it looks like theres cushioning underneath the parts of it that cover the rest of his spine #so he can take it off. but HOW #what parts of it unscrew/detatch to pull open and off #does it not do that at all and he just has to shimmy it off his shoulder and all the way down his legs to get it off like a romper #the shape language of the designs are cool but like. tell me how it wooorrkkksss #forgive me if im just dumb and dont know at all how braces work and theres a very simple practical explanation for all this #any king who wants to infodump about mobility aids at me....the floor is yours #something to be said i suppose about the fact that zaunites have crazy prosthetics with wild augmentations that work flawlessly #and piltover's like. idk heres some fucking uncomfortable ass metal. salo gets wheelchair in non ada compliant place #they havent ever needed to adapt to accommodate disabilities etc etc #or maybe artists were just like 'heres a design' and everybody clapped and didnt give it a second thought #and then they just turned off the visibility on the mesh when they didnt need it knowing thered not be a scene where its taken off #dont even wanna THINK about what that rig would look like #like 40 different controllers #soft body and rigid hard surfaces needing to move together....#a cold chill just shot up my spine #<- guy who is only an animator and doesnt know how to rig #forgive the magic wand tool with zero cleanup. i am lazy

the scene people keep screaming about from chapter 5 of theseus' guide

#gravity falls #gf theseus' guide #billford #stanford pines #bill cipher #stanley pines #mabel pines #dipper pines #m.png #THIS WASNT SUPPOSED TO TAKE ALL WEEK AAGH #cool thing i did where i took these characters who i cant draw from any angle but the front and then have them turning around CONSTANTLY #not just views from different angles either! active turning! im a genius!#i feel like you can tell which shots were drawn on different days sadkfhlgljaskg this killed me. i was gonna clean up the bgs but fuck that #theyre functional on a basic level and that is all we need #anyways can you believe the notorious line is only in the fic because an eagle eyed editor (not myself) caught it just before it was delete #and started screaming until it got put back #also the way stump came over while i was making this and was like 'oh right. i ship them' at the way i made bill flirt lmao #it hits different in the visual!#alright now i gotta fucking haul ass on the chapter 8 one

part 4 of a lot funnier in my head than on paper

#before anyone asks its not a series the part 4 is a joke dont go looking #the solver granted me this mental image #definitely not at the right skill level to draw it correctly but i did good enough #nori forgetting her ipod in space and then needing n to launch her into orbit to get it back #yknow now that im actually stopping to think about it v would be the only one of the two in functioning order at this point #or they just waited for n to regen and then forced him to do this #we both know n is fully capable of punting nori into orbit #something something stupid mutt #my hatred for this is growing the more i look at it im gonna finish off the tags #art #murder drones #murder drones n #murder drones nori #murder drones uzi #murder drones flesha #i guess #or #murder drones cyn #serial designation n #one day ill be able to draw n in a way i like #noris text box is supposed to be a rose it did not come out looking like a rose #i dont know how to draw roses help

MDZS x Firefly AU: A ragtag crew.

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #mdzs au #firefly #wei wuxian #jiang cheng #lan wangji #jiang yanli #Wen Ning #Wen Qing #nie huaisang #xue yang #A-qing #That's right! this month's flavour of MDZS AU is Space Western!#I recently rewatched the show and forgot that the lore essentially made everyone bilingual in Mandarin and English.#It's fun to hear characters talk in mandarin and now understand a little bit of what they're saying!#A Firefly AU fits them so well and I need to talk about it.#I have strong thoughts about my placement for all of these characters. Let's start with the most likely to be contraversial:#I think a less thought-out AU would pitch Wei Wuxian as the Captain or a Companion.#But there are a several reasons why that would simply not be the case:#Wei Wuxian is smart! He's good at what he finds a passion and interest in! Piloting is a complex skill that grants him a freedom to explore #He wants to kick back and chill! He would hate the responsibility of being the captain! That's JC's job!#In my heart he's also second in command - which does make WWX essentially Zoe and Wash smashed together.#Companions are also persons of high rank in this universe. Something WWX is very...not defined as.#Someone beautiful of higher social rank...someone who yearns for someone they want to explode in their mind...It was no contest.#I think there are a lot if really interesting things to explore with LWJ as a companion. Functionally they are similar to Courtesans -#But it isn't always about the sex - A Lan Wangji who sees himself only through the wants and needs of others -#is a really interesting angle I have been pondering a lot about.#Final thought to close up this long ramble: Yes. It is so essential that every space crew have a 'Weird Teen (girl optional) on board'.#Will I post more of this? Maybe! If people want to see more!

If you stare directly at reality, you'll end up going blind!

#ULTRAKILL #mirage #v2 #based on the music video for Mesmerizer by 32ki (for the lucky 10k who havent heard this multi-million view song)#song is not that topically relevant to them this was primarily an attempt to jumpstart my brain back into functioning lol #eye strain #id in alt #I have a timelapse of this + a couple other drawings.... maybe i can aggregate them somewhere

#I made this so long ago #probably a year???#for like an inside joke that's gone really far #anyways it got me thinking about a cartoon of them and how it'd function #and I think this is pretty representative of the overall vibe that would be #I could dream on and on of making a cartoon someday tbh #I've thought of it a ocuple times before but it's just too much work #speaking of work #back to it !#2d animation #animation #digital animation #time and time again

Viridian City seems fun

#I love these guys specifically #In my head they're the world's least functional family #I dont care if only two of them are related let me have this #you can tell the winter term is going to go poorly when just the thought of it rockets me back into my oldest fixation #I'm gonna be stuck on pokespe for a while probably #I honestly think this manga's not even that good but I read it when I was 12 so now it's a permanent part of my psyche #pokemon #pokespe #pokemon giovanni #trainer yellow #lance pokemon #rival silver #silver pokespe #trainer green #practicing some different rendering styles because I like to pretend I know what I'm doing #once I figure out how to reliably draw faces its over for you bitches #art tag

So in light of the most recent "Tumblr might die" scare, which so far sounds feasible in the fact that it isn't the usual nonsense, Tumblr is genuinely just barely staffed, I am genuineky worried about losing this place

People are saying to back up your blogs, and if that's important to you, absolutely do it!

But for me, I'm not worried about losing my blog. I'm terrified about losing the community and various fandom spaces here

#tumblr #tumblr shutdown #tumblr layoffs #maybe nothing will come of it #i hope this place does not die #but it is a very faint worry in the back of my mind that this already barely functional website will begin to slow to a crawl #and become more and more unusable #and become a wasteland that we can't get to function anymore because there is no one to run it #unless we get like #an ao3 set-up #where it is contributed to by its users #but who is going to give TUMBLR money lol
