According to @asritca it is our Specialist Boy's birthday today as his first comic appearance was today!!!
(Though the comic came out on the 20th)
So I just wants to say Happy Birthday to one of the most Vile Villains in all of Mickey and Friends media. The one with somehow both a black heart and a soft heart. The one who is oddly called attractive a bit too much in his Topolino description. The one who I have way too many HC for that probably ruin the character for you all...
The Phantom Blot.
May you have many years causing crimes and escaping doing the time.
What do you think, would it be better if I start reading the MHA manga or watching the anime instead? I def only have time for one of these and I can't decide lol
I would say manga. The shading and animation in BNHA is just not as good as the panels in the manga, and they severely neutered one of the better arcs later on. Besides the series is almost over and if you read faster than you watch you can catch up easily. Like all criticism aside, Hori has developed a LOT as an artist with BNHA and seeing it in the manga is so nice to see. You compare the first few chapters to the work he's doing now and you can tell he's gotten more experience and works well with his assistants
Snoots are one of my favourite things to draw in colour pencil. Such strange shapes and intricate detail! First pass on getting core shapes in for Mona's adorable nose.
Are you okay? What are you doing? #Pluto #dog #dogsofinstagram #dogs #dognose #bigdog #bigdogsofinstagram #canecorso #chicagodogs #dogphotography #dogphoto #gossia https://www.instagram.com/p/Clgmbqor-M1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I decided to jump ahead and work on the nose before finishing the jowls. I'm liking this little tufty section on the top. Next to add some definition to the cheeks... #dognose #olddog #oldandgrey #handsewn #pinned #needlework #nearlythere #onmytabletoday #artinprogress #slowstitchingmovement #textile #dogportrait #sculpture #fibreart #dogart #dogsculpture #animalart #animalsculpture #behindtheartistry #howitsmade #artiststudio #workinprogress #handstitched #softsculpture #textilework #fiberartcommunity #fiberart #makersofinstagram #contemporarysculpture #artinsalisbury https://www.instagram.com/p/ChFKAXRIuRF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I remember seeing a Twitter post not that long ago that criticized how disappointing it is when a character who wears a mask or cool costume tends to be revealed to be some "boring" average-looking guy underneath. And I realized that technically the Phantom Blot would fit under that...
However, I think the fact of what guy he intentionally looks like is one thing that helps him stand out.
To be honest, the fact that he is just Walt Disney's fursona (Dognose-sona?) is still the funniest thing about him and adds to him as a character.
