was thinking about silvervance again (as per usual) n it popped into my head to show y'all my progress shots !!

the first pic is the initial sketch (very barebones, just scribbling to get a certain Energy on the canvas). the second is cleaning up the first by establishing shapes and the line of action.

and the third is the finished product!

art is fucking insane man.

8- in a Poth fight, who wins? Bc Goth literally got the death touch

Es la primera vez que recibo tantas preguntas en una sola pregunta jeje am... ok

1- Palette knows Cray is a Paperfresh fanchildren? Like, well, his nephew?

2- How is Goth going with the "Family Game" of Palette ?

3- Goth feels bad for his Canon self? And does knows the creator of his Canon self have allow deathcest and well, proshippers shipps with him? What he thinks about it?

4- i wanted to know more about Palette spying job, whos his leader? NO FOR REAL, i literally made my own Au in my head where the leader is literally a God/Angel/demon/idkstrongasfuckguy PALETTE, that have some weird evil plans

5- how is the Poth family going? Goth dealing well with being the sexy Mommy?

7- how much kids Palette want to have with Goth?

8- if FellGoth had FellPastel, would Dante and Rurik ask for the custody? Bc they want a kid? Would Lotus accept it? Also i dont get the relationshipp of those three in your acc, is Dante and Rurik in a open relationshipp or Dante simply doesn't care that his bf r@ps Lotus? Also, Lotus stupid or what? Bitch got literally the DEATH TOUCH, idk if ppl forget that or any Goth simply REFUSES to defend themselves from their Palettes, if yes, thats a problem

9- if Dream and Ink are Immortals, why Palette inst? Is that a payment to be part of the cult?

yes :)

10- hey Saw you answered me, sorry for not liking before, Tumblr never lets me know when i was answered, and i rarely use it

Nothing happens hehe and thanks for you like

11- why Goth simply cant F@ck Palette properly?

12- if Im right, Goth can take the humans souls and happens this thing that happens to asriel in the game, does Goth knows about that? Like, he could look as a adult(or just older) with that, and bé more powerful course

I say that by taking so many souls he would become a super god in adult mode but it would be temporary, then he would become a dwarf again, although also by having so much power he would break the curse and stop being a dwarf xD

13- Palette if he had to kill Goth bc Goth found out the truth, he would really kill Goth? How he would deal with Goth parents finding out?

14- Palette finding out what Rurik does with Lotus? What would bé his reaction? He would help Lotus stop being a harley Queen? Só like, stop this sick love?

Palette is brave so I would defend him, but since he is in another dimension he cannot be in that universe for long, and Lotus would be left alone.

15- Goth finding out all Lotus have been throught, what he would do?

Goth would be sad to see his other self suffering so much, if Goth were there he would try to help him, even if Lotus is a bit stubborn.

16-my friend wants to follow but inst sure if you are a antiproshipper, bc of those Lil comics of Black and his brother, so, basically She thinks you approves that kind of shipps, i want her to follow too, could you answer her???

I didn't understand this, I searched and something else came up hehe or are you referring to the shp between black and fray? they are brothers aaaaaa, they already have their partners >n<

17- does Palette knows about Due and still have choose Goth?❤️☺️awwwn

I didn't understand this one either, sorry D:

18- Palette would get alonge with Gloom? And would Goth get along with Pibbidi?

I don't know those characters UnU

19- why FellPibbidi and Lotus dont date? I suppose both suffered very similar things, sooooo

well I wouldn't know what to answer

20-you can draw culeros sketchs to answer those, or texts, also accept those Lil shirt fanfictions as answers to some questions, have a Nice day

thanks for the questions hehe, the good thing is that I was able to answer them

Day 2: Favorite Ship

Tbh I can vibe w the main Carmen ships (like RedCrackle n CarmIvy) but good god do these two own every corner of my brain lol

I absolutely love these two! They r history nerds together!! They’re Red and Blue!! Secret agent and super thief!! AGSJSKSJ—

Ok it was only supposed to be a colored sketch. And then I did linework and it snowballed from there. And now it has shading and an overlay oops. Also my struggles w drawing Jules helped bc I had practice from day one. Go figure lol

This turned out so good I’m so proud of it :)

[just-an-average-fan]

Some drawings i really liked but never posted bc they were a part of a bigger bunch of stuffz that i planned on drawing but ended up not doing so!

Also some thoughts bout em under the cut if u r interested :}

Drawing #1:

Homestuck x ava/m!!! I made this while on vacation in july. I made tsc a Sylph of Breath and i was thinking bout what would the others be as well but with how little we know about classes, assigning those was waaay harder than aspects. Also rn i would change it coz i saw a post where a person classpected the color gang as well and in the tags they said they contemplated making tsc a muse which is just!!!!! Briliant????? I love that idea so much, im def gonna remake this and make them a muse hehehe

Drawing #2:

Pony tsc!!!!! Also made in july. Nothing else to say

Drawing #3:

Yellow!!! I wanted to make pages like this for each member of the color gang so i can figure out their designs but havent got around to it yet oof. Dont mind the ripped page! I do that when i dont like the drawing and cant fix it, ill probably glue smth there idk

The lil sun thingy is their homestuck aspect (light) i made her an earth pony and as a furry she would be a deer. Also drawn in july

Drawing #4:

Blue!! Made in either july or beginning of august

Drawing #5:

Rose Lalonde as pony. Probably alpha timeline Rose tbh bc of the cutie mark. Drawn in class, so in september already

Drawing #6:

Roxy Lalonde as pony. U can also partly see a pony that was supposed to be Jade and a changeling Calliope :} drawn the same day as rose

Bonus drawing:

Class sketches of Red :D

Thank u very much for reading hehehe <33

[magicratfingers]

hi!!! ive been putting off sending this ask bc idk how to phrase it in the best way but … ive been trying to work on my drawing lately even tho the Voice that wants to give up bc im not immediately good at things is VERY strong !!! & i love your work so much + ive been taking a lot of inspo bc its kinda scribbly and pared-down but still really expressive + differentiated (i.e. im just saying its something i feel like i can try match the vibe of rather than like, a very detailed and refined thing?!?! absolutely not my intention to sound rude at all!!!) .

anyway very rambly but the main thing is ive been struggling a lot w figure+perspective+silhouettes and honestly everything so i was just wondering what ur process was like??? particularly bc ur style is more pared back but everything is so cohesive and all the perspective n posing is perfect. i’m curious sketching/planning is involved before a typical work you’d upload? and idk like……. how much technical skill + consideration goes into a drawing especially re: posing & perspective. just bc i feel like Such a Noob and like my eyes r literally wrong and nothing looks Right. im such a type A planner it just feels like maybe idk am i supposed to be educating myself on figure drawing and shading perspective first??!?! or do i just draw until it’s good?!?!?

idk man i create in a lot of different mediums and i feel super comfortable letting my writing be terrible before it’s good but w drawing the self-critique is SO difficult to ignore. thanku for what turned out to be a vent lol. but i would appreciate any insight! also i love your art ok bye

Hi! yeah great ask. I've been there. Live there, even. Here're two of my comfort hacks

1. Scribbles = Bonsai It can be real hard to know when you're 'done' with an illustration (or anything really) if you don't have a job for it. My doodles are 'done' to me if they have Character, Rhythm, & Balance. I stole that from a youtube doc about Bonsai.

2. Figures / Perspectives / Shading = Planning The Chunks These are kind of all the same thing - 'how am I using volume to say something.' I've found formal perspective stuff to be stifling. I work around it by making little marshmallow toothpick people and putting them in a diorama.

I like the diorama method because all I have to do is make far things lighter and close things darker. That's a lot of depth for very little effort and I'm on a budget.

If this helps y'all I'd love to hear about it 🍀

maria and louise sketches #1

so i had this random idea that i just COULDN’T get out of my head.

i hadn’t really seen any genderbend of mario and luigi as much as i had seen peach. and when i did see some, they were mostly just anime girls with red and green caps on. so i kept wondering how a girl version, *with their original form in mind*, would look like. 

that’s sort of the difficulty of this thing,how would their bodytype translate to a femme form?, what would i do without their mustaches? it’s their trademark! how could you tell its mario and luigi without their iconic mustaches?. what about their noses?.  also using references from the already existing girl characters in the mario universe, most of them wear lipstick, would mario and luigi have to wear lipstick then? what about their hair?. but im also thinking about how nintendo designs girl characters and try to match that to make it as canon looking as possible

explaining the pictures

1 - the motive behind the lipstick idea. shows their hair with and without their hats, how much would be visible with them on. to sort of match the og design instead of having their bangs under the hats which just looks funky.

2 - paper mario/smaller looking/manga design, mario and luigi have very expressive faces and body shapes and i didnt want the genderbend to prevent that bc “girls r supposed to be pretty statues buh buh buh” that typically makes them look stiff or like just hot girls in a masceraude. m&l have a typical “squash and stretch duo” (i swear this makes sense pls look it up). the bodies are supposed to look neutral, that could belong to either the guys or girls and shows their natural body shape while holding the same goofyness.

3/4 - lipstick ideas, a natural shade vs the brown matching the OG’s mustaches and their hair. the brown and natural lipstick shade works better(imo) than something the girls from peach’s universe would typically wear like red or pink. the brown and nude color just sort of reflects their whole “we’re just two italian guys from brooklyn who get down and dirty with our sewage plumbing job” so i dont think they’d wear anything bright even if they were girls, if they even wear lipstick at all!! it doesnt matter which one really. 

5/6 - rough body sketches. the blue one is their bodies more semi-“realistically” or just more like the usual art style, you can see the curve and flops. the red is more rounded up, basically how those 3d nintendo models of mario and luigis bodies, simpler shapes, smooth with no interruption, how nintendo would model their bodies in games basically. you can see the simple little tummy luigi has on louise’s body too. basically a “if u remove the boobs its basically them” as identical bodies as possible. 

this is not the finished product, as i still have their clothes to go. maybe i’ll even add voice headcanons?. again, i dont know where this urge came from but i love complicating already existing character design :D

[symptomofgout]

look idk what it says about me that these are the two characters i got attached to but i don’t think it’s anything good

[syilcawrites]

is it time to finally start working on the archived memories sequel again🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️it's been on the backburner for at least 6 months agsffs

[opaiescents]

i saw a picture of these booty shorts and i thought the idea of dio wearing them was really funny because he totally would and then i remembered that i’m an artist and that i have the power to recreate imagery from my head

Chlonath wips

I have so many Chlonath art and fic wips… I am such a slow writer and I’ve had most of these written down for like 2 years, so I wanna share most of their premises now in case I never get around to them! For joy and prosperity and whatnot, if someone wants to write one of these just ask me first! Someone needs to feed the chlonath masses. My next fic is going to be the camping one I think~

My fave picks:

Your majesty: Despite his bright fiery hair, he was all too easy to erase, to fade into the background. Garish, but unmemorable. Talented, but lame. Chloe decides to change that, takes him on as a pet project as fashion coordinator. "Come on, look at yourself! That hair, those eyes. You were *made* to pop! Everyone’s eyes would turn to you when you’re in the room!" He flushes, was that how she saw him? "But I don’t *want* to be the center of attention..." She smirks confidently/slyly. "Well too bad! Chloe Bourgeois will make a peacock out of this ugly little duckling!". Much later there’s a much quieter, sweeter scene of him voicing not wanting to be that different or flashy and she takes out some accessories that suit and enhance his style, comfy and like him. Eventually oop! She rlly needs a date and it’d go with her pet project, "besides you could use this for networking". "Hm? Oh yeah, a half up half down ponytail would look cute on you, in a street kind of way. But bangs in your face can go for cool and mysterious too. It can give you some personality that goes with or contrasts with your outfit, I guess. But this *is* still a fancy event, so a simple well-groomed swept aside style would keep it prim and formal, and it *is* your first entry into high society... But I *suppose* if you do your big debut with the aesthetic you’ll keep with, it’ll probably help your brand long term, attract the right kind of contract for you right away-" "Wow, where was all this perspective when you were doing the analysis on the blue curtains?" She smirks, "I have more experience in keeping up appearances —and everything it entails— than you think, apparently"

Everything else under spoiler bc I have tons of prompts haha

Chloe becomes designer & coordinator, director, for marc & Nath’s comics! She loves outfit coordinating, set designing, composition etc. Marc handles the writing and Nath the drawing, Chloe helps with the visual design. It starts with Chloe suggesting lil things to Nath when she sees his drawings, like add a common accessory to all the team. And since she was queen bee she can fact check some things. He loses his sketchbook while walking and she picks it up, not in her usual mood, n she sees his sketches and starts rattling off about details and fashion. Nath: "oh I- I’m not very knowledgeable in fashion designing..." she looks him up and down, taking his garish outfit in. "That I could have guessed." He huffs, sarcastic "Well, *thank you*, Chloe. That’s not a half bad idea, I could ask Marinette for some designing help, actually!" He lights up at that idea. She grits her teeth, angry and snatches his sketchbook back. She starts drawing on another page and her drawing isn’t really good but the ideas? Wow, they work. Chloe knows her aesthetics. "Stupid Marinette would *not* know how to arrange queen wasp’s hair, thank you very much. Ugh, this is outrageous! Utterly outrageous! You can keep the changes, and keep your god awful awfully thought out designs out of my sight, next time!" With his open sketchbook shoved back into his hands, he stares down at it n truly appreciate it. Wow, this is some serious good job. He thinks about it, kinda smug, oh I can *definitely* play her. He starts leaving his sketchbook behind on purpose n she starts giving him more and more notes when sabrina isn’t around. At some point she comes to the art room and everyone is silent but she’s shy and makes an effort not to be mean. The art dude takes her a bit under his wing and she starts channeling her time n energy into art, peeps of the art room start tolerating her. She takes Marc under her wing confidence wise, and sabrina tags along and rediscovers a love for scrapbooking. Omll marc & sabrina besties qpr cuties?

Pas de deux: they have a random ballet class in PE and they get paired up for the project and chloe 1) wants a good grade for her dad’s rep 2) is goal-oriented 3) has much less barb when teaching. Also prob a sad side note about impressing her mother with ballet classes as a kid.

But Are the Curtains Blue or Just Your Tear-stained Veil: Nathaniel tended to notice things, notice people. To dissect them, as if they were a comicbook character. What was surprising about Chloe is that while her attitude was bolsterous and always seemed so heated, her eyes were like ice, distant. A deep blue, and curtained off, like she could not let anyone else see what they hid. But Chloe was mean and cruel, and sometimes, Nathaniel dug too deep at wasn’t there. Maybe, they were just blue. He always came back at the mystery of her, though, and was pushed and pulled in a one-sided dance with her like the come and go of waves. //Maybe they just weren’t any curtains, whatever that meant. Maybe he was making everything up. Tags: kinda like The Girl Of the Train tbh

Name ideas:

Buzz off

Sweet as honey: What chloe turns out to love in a man is how sweet he can be

Renaitre

Esquisse

Preen my feathers (peacock holder Nath + motif with Chloe & appearances)

Quick ideas:

"I’ve spent so long hoping to be saved, that it feels weird to save people."

Chloe realizes her mother will never love her, or even respect her. Everything changes. //She lets herself be and experience pain and failure

By fake dating chlonath can make adrienette jealous! A scene: chloe tightens her grip on his arm with a crestfallen gaze at adrienette, nath is like ...? and realize Chloe hated Marinette bc abandonment issues

Sabrina chews chloe out and is done with her when they were on an outing, chloe runs into the nearest building, a museum, to hide and cry her eyes out. She bumps into Nath, and a friendship goes from there.

Ever since nath learned chloe is queen bee, he calls her stuff like yes your stinginess.

Nath brings chloe to a emo concert to throw her off, all hell breaks loose. (She likes it)

Two works linked together, one from chloe pov about nath n the other vice versa. "It’s wicked how sweet you are" and "it’s sweet how wicked you are"

Impression, soleil levant: they have a run in in the museum. Chloe genuinely likes fine art. Nath likes popping color, lineart, contrast and stylistic appeal, more contemporary stuff. Chloe really like impressionism, it calms her down, she could spend a lot of time just watching a painting. When she was a kid her dad would bring her when talking business at the louvre so she ran off with Jean and she knows the museum very well.

Chloe’s dad keeps bothering her about rules and standards and finding a partner, so Chloe resolves to find the lamest lousiest boyfriend. To make a statement, of course, she tells herself so when her eyes keep flicking to the redhead sitting at the back of the class.

What better way to learn to be vulnerable with each other than ice skating, when you’re both awful at it? A date <3

She points out a panel with queen bee when he’s doodling it, she has no context she just chilling "why is her hair down?" Nath answers without missing a beat "It’s a metaphor for vulnerability".

Nath starts disappearing quietly to places more and more, now that he has a miraculous. Chloe susses him out. W-what?? How did you notice it? Nobody ever pays attention to me- Ugh, you’re *impossible* to miss with that fluorescent hair of yours. Well you’re the only person who pays attention to it, apparently. Hah, blame my superior eyes if you must. Well if *I’m* what your superior eyes choose to watch then- U-um, we’re getting sidetracked! W-what are you doing here! Reverse universe where she’s still denied being queen bee so she’s Nath’s sidekick? He doesn’t really have any friends besides Marc which not in this universe bc it comes before, so he wouldn’t have anyone else so lowkey he’s grateful. He notices her really truly changing for the better as they hang out more.

I dig my hole, you build a wall: As Chloe Bourgeois doubles down on being an irredeemable bully, Queen Bee continues to rise on a pedestral of adoration. It doesn’t help, nothing ever does, and it’s getting harder to make herself ignore how miserable she is. Chloe drowns herself in her superhero job, squeezes every drop of appreciation from her fans she can. Nath happens to be one of them, hardcore. She just needs someone to lean on.

26/11/‘22 Chloe gets akumatized into a dollhouse lover like with her teddybear mr cuddles, and she wants to kidnap some ppl and keep them like dolls to play with her and listen to her every want and choice of activities. Sabrina is mad at her so elle la boude. She picks Nath and they have a tea party isolated at Le grand paris etc etc. Maybe after Adrien cuts it off with Chloe so she freaks out amd wants friends, even if toxic controlling, but she’s not shooting for Adrien bc she’s upset at him and ignores him.

Outlined:

He forgets some comic pages behind, vs queen wasp, and goes back to get them and finds chloe reading them intensely, seeming genuinely invested. She’s lowkey having a panic attack n shoos off an akuma?? He’s shocked, but that requires introspection so in the moment he’s doubtful and bitter. She’s panicced and embarrassed about having been found out. He’s like, wtf was so upsetting about my comic?? Jealous of my art? Mad that something isn’t about you? Angry that I have talent and dreams, unlike you? she flinches. She upsetti "you wouldn’t understand." "Oh, try me. I have experience in being put down, after all." He bites coldly. She explains half-heartedly "Oh, here comes the self-pity." Her lips quiver, she looks down. "You’re right. It is self-pity. I’m miserable." The "and I have no one else to pity me but me" is muttered so quietly. Her fists clench, chin tucked in her torso. Then her gaze hardens and she snaps her head up. "Whatever." He blocks her way out. She grits dangerously "*Out*. Of. The way." Her eyes prickle with tears. He doesn’t even flinch "That won’t work today." She’s so close to snapping violently but instead just cries. Blabla "Yeah well, when you’ve dug a hole as deeply as I have, you can’t get out. Not without a miracle, anyways." She says, you could do one about queen bee next, please. N leaves quietly and he’s never seen her so... non-agressive.

Entracte/solo act: Picking on Nathaniel Kurtzberg when alone with him, Chloe found, was a much different experience than humiliating him in public. It turns out, he only unleashes his fury on the most deserving of private audiences. Notes: I headcanon Nath, bc of the reflekto ep, would stand up for himself more if he wasn’t being bullied in public. I feel like having all the eyes on him motivates him to shut up and try to make the ordeal as brief as possible & leave the situation, so when he’s alone and getting sass he has less qualms about snapping and ripping into ppl lol. Chloe goes to the art room and Nath is alone in it. He asks where Sabrina is, she rolls her eyes "She had *something important* to attend to." She goes to see what he’s working on and makes her snide remarks as usual but unlike usual he snaps and rips into her, she loses her haughty attitude real quick. The next time they make eye contact in class, she grimaces and looks away. He wins. But then she gets a fire and glares at him head on. Let the war truly begin. 

To Nathaniel’s and Choe’s horror, the class goes on a mandatory camping trip. It does not go well for either of them. "Um, I’m sorry mme Bustier but I won’t be able to come. I’m sick, yes, cough cough, how unfortunate." Bustier is not amused. She groans when it’s announced they’ll have a camping trip. Nath keeps his in, but for once they agree on something. Ugh.  Nath just wants to draw in his tent, that’s too much to ask??!

Royalties: nath finds out chloe is queen bee and threatens to tell it to everyone so that ladybug will take her miraculous away. In exchange for his secret, Chloe must praise him and his art on her social media, throw his name in at fancy soirées, become his "fan". To Nath’s surprise and Chloe’s horror, it backfires. Royally. Her "Nath is so cool" post was half advertizing half for public humiliation. Being the daughter of the mayor of one of the most famous cities in the world meant she has a lot of followers, quite a few in the elite sphere of Paris. The post’s a bit rebellious on her end because he doesn’t like her calling him Nath. Since Chloe *never* praises anyone and the tone was overeager/affectious, people start theorizing they’re actually dating. He takes the logical leap to be invited by her at an event, but as a plus one because it’s not her party to invite people at. Normally he wouldn’t want to have anything to do with a fancy party, but he begrudgingly has to admit networking is very important as an artist, plus he’d do it to piss off Chloe alone.

Vampire au!! Summary: Beyond her humanity, which Chloe had never truly cared about anyway, becoming a vampire hadn’t really, concretely, taken away anything from her. She was still rich, loved by all of Paris, and beautiful. And yet, she realized then that she had lost herself without knowing when.  //Chloe has been a vampire for a lil while, very upset. Mr cuddly is also a reminder of her past life. She longs to see herself again, she has had to keep out of the spotlight because she has no reflection and can’t be taken a picture of, she asks Nath to draw her like in Mirror, Mirror the awesome fic which I recommend! Nath finds out her new identity so he becomes tied up in it all, he’s the only one who knows so he becomes who she feeds on. "I can pay you. What do you want? A thousand euros per night? The latest drawing tablets? A gallery showing? Publishing deal? Just help me." Right from the start she feeds off from his neck despite his hesitance. She goes "a wrist? Are you kidding me? I settle for nothing but the best." But the reality is she just wants to feel close to someone, one time the bite turns into a hug crying session. -"... Does that mean my blood is the tastiest?" She’s shaken at that, "That- was *not* what I was implying. It’s not like I would know, anyways." She huffs n looks away. "Your blood is... satisfactory." He smirks, from her, that’s a huge compliment. He can just hear it in his mind "My taste buds are only the most refined!! I can tolerate only but the best!!" She does tell him he’s sweaty n stinks the first time tho. He has to hide his neck bite, ppl tease him about hickeys. At some point a classmate figures out it’s chloe that gives him his hickeys and Nath has to damage control and people start sussing they’re a couple.

No lullaby: No one liked her, but she could dream, couldn’t she? The delusions she lulled herself to had never really been dreams, but maybe to reborn anew she could find a lullaby in someone new, too. // based on the song No Lullaby by Siamés. Also La la la by Jason Chen Akuma that calls itself Lullaby, it was made because they have to move away from their parents or smth like that, so it lashes out and makes all kinds of kiddy & wholesome parenthood stuff. It turns people into happy kids/babies by tapping into childhood memories of parents(something like that), but doesn’t affect Chloe. Because Chloe never had her parents be around much, or them being much like parents at all. Chloe is fighting as Queen Bee, of course, in an AU where people know who she is but Ladybug still trusts her to want not to smear her family name by being a bad superhero. "I could be a superhero and my mother still wouldn’t blink my way... Oh, sorry, that actually happened, not much for an hypothetical." Everyone stares at her in shock. "What? I can have a smart vocabulary!" People look at her with pity and sympathy. "T-that’s not it..." Chat says. Anyways they’re fighting it and a lot of other miraculous holders get hit and she does too but is immune bc it taps into their happy parents childhood memories, meanwhile it’s only able to conjure up her plushie for her. Anyways so she gets swinged up to a rooftop where Nathaniel is sitting and drawing Queen Bee, he jolts and goes "Q-quee-Chloe?" but they don’t have much time since the akuma comes swinging in too and gets Nath under its spell. She carries around baby!Nath around because for some reason she feels a sort of duty to people she knows irl. She goes to the building the other holders are in or something but still ends up alone with Nath since everyone got affected, she panics as her miraculous beeps and she’s alone to fix everything, but Nathaniel draws with his fine art colored pencils like kids use crayons and does tons of kiddy imaginative drawings, and starts humming, bringing her out of her torpor. As the tune calms her, she does a “what would Ladybug do?”, "Ugh, I could have used Evillustrator right about now." She strategizes on how to break the spell over Ladybug for purification, and goes in to break the akuma item holder. When Nathaniel comes to, he’s mad to have ruined his pencils, now with blunt deformed tips, but then he looks at his sketchbook in utter confusion he sees pages and pages of kid’s drawings, recognizing his own infantile style, but the most curious are that some drawings include Queen Bee. His feelings are conflicted and he wants to know what happened, but dreads asking her, but he laughs at a drawing of him pulling her ponytail, and stills at the one of her hugging him. End notes: Next time Queen Bee gets swung onto his rooftops by an akuma, Nath jolts but responds to that adrenaline by crossing his leg over his other knee and raising an eyebrow over half-lidded eyes: "Somehow, I’m not surprised." You know, like sometimes when people flirt as fight or flight response lmao.

22/2/‘23 Chloe was trying really hard to be kind like a true superhero now, and with the birthday of her classmate Nathaniel coming up she would have to, painstakingly, do everything in her power to give him the best gift ever. One problem is, she doesn’t really know him, like, at all. She asks him what he likes. She thinks of supherhero stuff and art stuff. She doesn’t know about drawing tablets so she’s like, what about this professional drawing desk I’ll have my bodyguard carry? As if everyone has the privilege to have the space for a new furniture on a whim. She asks Sabrina for help like this close to a meltdown, maybe even Marinette: "The fool was in love with you, don’t you know anything about him that could help??" And then at the end shes like "omg. I can get him an interview with Queen Bee!" Ooh does she get akumatized with some gifter gimmick? Would be neat but naaah. Maybe two parts, idk what the end should be! Copic markers maybe

mxm au thoughts copied & pasted directly from discord bc i am sick and do not feel like rewriting it so it makes more sens e

so mxm au was made before vol 4 i think it mightve even een before vol 333 actually either way i did not account for adam ACTUALLY being an alternat e

so ive been thinking abt wha t do i do abt that and like one of the main concepts of the au is that bc they're trapped looping over and over they end up getting distorted

some faster (jonah, bc he's VERY scared) than others (mark, who has an iron will, is only as fucke dup as he is bc it's been like 17 years) but once they're out of their loop the Fucked Up-ening stops and they just stay at their current level of fucked up

except 4 adam when adam & jonah leave their loop and go on the run^2 jonah stops getting more fucked up but adam just. k eeps changing bc technically he isn't changing he is just reverting to whatever fucked up form his alt body is suppose dot b without the adam murray disguise and he's just ?????????????????????

so tht also defo doesn't help the mark situation bc every time adam shows back up 2 try and convince mark to trust hi m he is m ore and more Creature and mark is just like now what the fuck is going on here .

he has 2 b rly careful abt trying to convince mark 2 let him and jonah help bc if mark gets a shot on him anywhere vital with the deagle he is Done For

and now that they've escaped their own vol 2 loop they do not know what would happen if they died no w and r not willing 2 test it bc either they die permanently (bad) or get put back in time prison (worse!)

m eanwhile the longer it takes them to try and convince mark, the longer cesar is trapped trying to Fight God

s o yeag that's why the sketch i did of mxm adam is the way it is also i want all of them to have an arrow/clock hand somewhere in their design which is why he's got a lil imp tail :]

80-20? i post everything that i finish. basically the only stuff that doesnt get posted is sketches i give up on

hmmmm not that i can think of rn...

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate

watercolour !! i've tried it a few times and Struggled but i love seeing ppl's work in it

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

so many animatics ..................... also many comic ideas ..................... i get so many ideas that i just never start on or start and only do a little before losing the hyperfocus/fixation and just Cannot continue them. it sucks

hmm i like jackets :)

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what

yes, usually music. sometimes random youtube videos like stream highlights or video essays.

uhhh hair? maybe idk. hard question bc it varied a lot depending on what kinda style and just. sometimes smth is hard in a particular drawing then easy later idk

13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing

i cant think of anything i will edit it in if i think of anyone

14. Any favorite motifs

in my drawings i dont feel like i use any much. mostly i pull motifs from whatever im doing fanart of lol. in music, i like religious motifs (but not like. ones abt christ or bible stories, rather heaven, hell, god/divinity, angels)

15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)

at home pretty much exclusively. in bed lol

weapons and nature. especially ice for nature

i cant think of anything ill add it if i do

i love rougher styles, like ones with a lot of visible brushstrokes and bold lines and shit. so cool. idk how to make it look good lol i dont have the confidence in my lines for it

22. What physical exercises do you do before drawing, if any

none... probably i should change that

24. Do your references include stock images

sometimes

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by

cant think of any

26. What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended

there was this poem i wrote about capitalism and how shit it is and someone thought it was abt interpersonal relationships/smth along the lines of a breakup. i rly didnt mind it tho i thought it was cool bc the emotion was not far off, the sense of betrayal and abandonment. just a very very different subject

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with

no lol

28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)

i ran a zine (digital only) for the dimension 20 zine jam! and also made art+writing for others in that :D also was part of a polygon yt fanzine a while back

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically

spider-man (not the MCU, mostly tasm and a few of the comics)

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

IS IT BAD TO SAY A PIECE THAT GOT QUITE A BIT OF POSITIVE ATTENTION ?? maybe

i rly like the cj comic i did i am genuinely so goddamn happy with the result so . even tho it did very well by the standards for the fandom its for and my current follower base it is underrated

alternatively this one https://www.tumblr.com/pathos-p/704380503765221377/tridential-sovereignty?source=share bc it didnt get all that much attention on any social media site but i think its cool !!

what’s in sander’s green duffel bag? (robbe’s bag) (insp) headcanons below ↓↓↓

three cans of spray paint, his signature black and white and a tan that matches the color of robbe’s jacket. all three of them need replacing soon, and he’ll typically rotate out the colors he’s carrying around so he doesn’t get bored. never know when a wall might need a fresh coat of creativity though.

art supply case, which has 2 6b pencils, a sharpie, 2 paint brushes, 3 tubes of acrylic paint, an eraser, and a sharpener. darker pencils are his favorite, although they’re softer and he goes through them quickly, so he always keeps a backup of his favorite brand.

an extra phone charger and his earbuds for when he’s off exploring by himself. he used to not bother with the charger, content with being a little reckless, but he doesn’t like worrying robbe or having to worry about robbe in case of an emergency, so he brings it just in case now.

a mask, which he carried around pre-pandemic, thank you very much. he also uses it to disguise himself/protect from the fumes during spray painting outings.

a lighter with an ‘R’ on it. robbe bought a cheap set of them a couple weeks ago and slipped it into his bag, but not before jotting an ‘R’ on it in his messy lettering (and an ‘S’ on his own). he tells sander it’s just in case, bc he knows he doesn’t smoke much anymore, but sander keeps it for sentimentality. both of them scrawl ‘r + s’ in some form across more surfaces and objects than they’d ever admit.

a pill container with some extra medication in case his reminder goes off while he’s not at home. doesn’t hurt to be prepared.

his phone which he somehow always manages to catch right at 21:21. changed his lockscreen to robbe for a while, but it was a major distraction any time he was in class or was supposed to do something else on it. (his friends also teased him mercilessly bc they were always the most embarrassing pics). that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have multiple albums dedicated solely to his boyfriend though.

his camera and a canister of undeveloped film. he keeps it with him all the time and has been meaning to get those photos developed at school. they’re full of pictures from the little nature getaway he and robbe had a couple weeks ago

his sketchbook which is worn and about 75% used up. his therapist recommended he use it as almost a visual journal and be intentional about it, so he’s taken to tucking photos and receipts and scraps of paper that remind him of things he’d want to note about his days. it’s also filled with sketches and the sticker on the outside is his graffiti tag, which is a recent development of his (shoutout to lana for the idea about the crown + bolt).

his wallet which typically has a little bit of cash in it, as well as his cards. he also carries his id, bc mandatory and useful, and a couple condoms, bc.... c’mon.

an extra shirt which just so happens to be the building shirt. he normally carries some form of change of clothes or a hoodie in case he makes a mess of his own or stays the night at robbe’s or something else comes up. usually they’re old worn tshirts he can use as a rag when he’s doing larger artwork too.
