idle leftovers...i drew the dream from my last post
#witch hat tag#orufrey#i have too much backlog of small comic nonsense right now and im also SO tired#if you live life dramatically & beautifully like a maiden wandering on the moors with your skirts billowing emotionally when you fall over#because you are gods least favourite but most innocent & most tortured angel then sometimes it gets mixed up with stupidity in your dreams.#and you have to wake up and realise you can't always take yourself seriously. Oh the indignity of it all.#also the first one was while thinking abt oru and qif training their skills as kids - magic and cooking -#and now they are so well equipped to look after & teach 4 hungry and excited girls about this world.#it was all so we could make it here - so that we could meet - and live together.#i want kids to be safe and happy worldwide they wil inherit this planet

Give it up, Mags - it’s like asking a fish to stop swimming.
(ID: Kirby series fanart comic of Magolor and Marx having a typically heated conversation inside the Lor Starcutter. Top panel - Magolor hovers on our left, squinting in frustration with anger lines zigzagging from his head, one hand clenched in a fist at his side, the other pointing forward towards our right. He says, “Marx, if you keep making outdated meme references, I’m kicking you off my ship.” Bottom panel - Marx stands on our right, unbothered by the wizard’s threat, wearing a pair of sunglasses held in place with tape, sparkles flickering by his head. In alternating red and blue letters, he says, “That’s not very cash money of you.” END ID.)
Started 04/20/24, finished 05/13/24.
#veins art#veins fanart#kirby series#kirby#magolor#marx kirby#lor starcutter#comic#can be read as platonic or romantic#they've had this same conversation before about puns#and word association#and the time Marx spent an entire week speaking *only* in riddles#meanwhile the Lor is omnipresently observing in the bg#metaphorically munching on popcorn and just *living* for their drama#also big hat for small clown#veinsfullofstars

You ever wonder how Mike is going to keep seven foot tall animatronics out of his office with a flimsy door in place of the ones we're used to?

I think the whole "Propeller Hat and Comically Large Lollipop" thing is really funny, so I (of course) wanted to slap them on a spotted hyena!
And then I proceeded to slap them on a bunch of OTHER animals!!
(So stay tuned for those lol)

23rd May ‘24 - [arch] Witch Hat Atelier Takeover Episode
Greetings! I am back from the dead! I have had a fair few weeks of rest and admin and now I have lots of art thoughts! (lets see if I can get some down)
OMG Shri I am in LOVE with your last few posts!!! Have you considered not hitting it out of the park every time?? I have thoughts about the mind’s eye thing and picturing your work… maybe at some point I’ll write a blog about it :0
I’m working on a super cool comic for some people I can’t yet talk about but I’m going through a HUGE research process for it. It’s awesome, it feels like I’m back at uni. Learning so many skills and documenting my research properly in my slides again 💪💪
Though I can’t talk about the project itself, I would love to share a bit of analysis I’ve been doing on Witch Hat Atelier!! (Heads up - the following post contains spoilers for the first half of the first volume)
Expressions!!!
Though not unique to Witch Hat Atelier (WHA from now on), the manga uses a combination of subtler, realistic illustrations combined with goofy exaggerated ones - in particular using styles found commonly in manga.
The first few pages have quite minimal facial expressions - they’re still obvious (and to a degree, exaggerated in Coco's case) but not goofy. Shirahama uses additional techniques like text and sparkles on the right hand page to communicate Coco's excitement.
Traditional manga expressions, with more exaggerated and goofy features, are saved for comedic moments - in this instance from Coco’s childlike excitement.
Here we have quite realistic expressions, exaggerated by a combination of shadow (right-hand page) and tight close-ups. This. brings us into Coco's wonder, and communicates her high level of engagement.
In fact, the goofy expressions are almost exclusively saved for smaller panels, whilst more high drama or wonder moments take up larger panels and whole pages, so there's space for that high level of detail.
In this spread, expressions are playing a more minor role until the last two panels. In the panel circled in red, Coco’s expression is distressed. Because it’s a smaller panel, mid shot panel, her expression is emphasized by more cartoonish techniques (eg. The lines down her face.)
The last two panels return to slightly more realistic expressions, without the more cartoonish aids. This makes the moment feel more dire. Shirahama emphasises this once again by using close-ups and darkness surrounding them for the appropriate ambience.
Shirahama uses a high level of detail to capture moments of high wonder. They force the reader to take in the extent of the image. These are usually paired with minimal text which also requests that the reader takes time to absorb the image, rather than skimming over text.
Panel Pacing and Flow :0
For the ‘day to day’ ordinary scenes, pretty straightforward paneling is used. On a grid, straight lines, very little overlapping.
This is broken in moments, like introducing Qifrey. A three-quarter image of him breaks the panel structure to say ‘hey, this guy is important’.
Overlapping panels are first introduced in this moment - which is huge for Coco, as she realises how magic is used. The change in format once again tells the reader that this is important by adding more visual interest. The images sit like a bunch of disjointed puzzle pieces, like she’s about to put something together.
On the second page of the spread, the format returns to (mostly) normal as everything slots into place.
What can I say... line of action!!! Look at those gorgeous textures that lead the composition into that curve. That's all from me today folks, hope you enjoyed reading through! I've got a bit more stability in my life now, so hopefully I'll be more consistent with my uploads. (no promises I'm taking it easy) lots of love! :D Archie

tf2 is an exemplary game because every character has a silly hat or glasses. more media should take notes
#except heavy but ummm its okay! i dont have any thoughts on him anyways#personally i think soldier has the best hat but sniper has the best glasses#wait circling back around. heavy probably has reading glasses and theyre comically small on him#this is my truth#tf2#originals

pretty & cute witch men
#witch hat tag#orufrey#i'm not drawing as much or as well as i'd like to be doing. i'm trying to get through a comic i've been really wanting to do#but i'm just finding it so hard. disheartening. btw the 2nd one relates to some official art of qif wearing a dress like the girls#and the 4th one relates to how i've been drawing EXTREMELY SMALL for years. idk how to explain it but i always clicked 'fit to screen'#and so all my art EVER has looked bad when you zoom in bc it's already like size 1 zoomed in to the MAX pfhgguguhfpfhGHAHHHHH#i was so confused allll this time why brushes always look different for me than what they're supposed to#'wow this brush is so jaggedy..really rather jaggedy...calling it the Jagged Cai Special..bringing it out for those jaggedy moments..#really quite jaggedy i must say...' and it's literally not jaggedy#but now i have to get used to how all those brushes that i'd gotten used to indeed look how they're supposed to finally. Alarming#I have simply been working out absolutely everything by myself for years and that's why my technical progress is slow#ppl say my progress is fast and i certainly have improved much since i began doing all this but#like..it took me a year and half to start using a program where i could Colour In The Lines aka the..whatever it's called. whatever..#just on my lonely confused solemn journey to express gay love better than yesterday.. -_- *picks up my pack n continues through the snow*#btw thank you sm for people's kind words enjoying my narumitsu art & fic over the christmas & new year period <3

Terry’s cowboy hat... s
So ever since Splat3 dropped, Terry is drawn alternating between two cowboy hats! For example:
Cowboy hat #1: the original
Cowboy hat #2: his new hat
He uses his new cowboy hat more now as shown in the second picture! But sometimes he still wears the old one. Especially during the first day of Splatfest!
The new cowboy hat is the first cowboy hat he bought for himself when he went to Splatsville, where his older sister lives!
This is because that old hat of his was a memento from his late father. After the events of hero mode of Splatoon 2, he thought that he didn’t want to risk it getting damaged, despite it being one of his sources of inner strength.
(This is part of a sketched comic I made years ago where he sang “Leader of the Band”.)
Back then, he was still too young to wear the cowboy hat, but he did cherish it and took it with him when he went to Inkopolis City. He also brought different mementos from his family members back at home, like his mother’s old Splattershot!
The reason he wears his old cowboy hat to Splatfests is something of a personal symbolic sentiment.
“Pa, here’s what Splatfests look like in Splatsville! Ain’t it just grand? And big sis Tierra is here too, with all the friends who feel like home away from home! You gotta join us with the celebrations!”
#long post#... i guess#text#art#terry#agent 4#splatoon#splatoon 2#splatoon 3#splatoon oc#nate#ezra#prima#i could never get around to making small comics.. even the four panel ones#so sometimes i'll write this all down like this! hahaha#i just felt his cowboy hat was an important terry topic#next time i'll talk more about his character i guess!#Agents
