the superfam tag is just batfam 2.0 tag. where are the women??? where are the men of colour??? why is it only clark, kon and jon??? and why are they always in the presence of a bat??? WHY???

(i love the boys, don’t get me wrong. clark is literally my second all-time favourite character. but the superfam is more than three white dudes.)

thinking about darry curtis

how, when he was in high-school, and he made the winning touchdown, he jumped excitedly, arms flailing and grabbing his teammates under his arms in pure joy, thinking how he was going to have the chance to do this all his life.

how, when his boss called him and he found out he got a promotion, his arms flew the same way they once did when he scored the touchdown. how his prayers had been answered, so much relief that passed through him and how now he would be bringing in more money to support his brothers.

thinking on darry's letterman jacket, the one he had designed and pictured all throughout his years playing football, only to be told by his parents that they simply couldn't afford it because a $95 jacket was more than they could give.

how, now being given the responsibility to buy pony a jacket for winter, he stumbled upon a $15 and $35 dollar coat, both of which were too much for something he was going to outgrow in two months and still have enough to put food on the table for the next week.

thinking how, when darry was 6 years old, his goldfish died. the orange one he had gotten as a prize from someplace, and how he cried and shook the fishbowl in hopes that the poor thing would move again. that it would jump back up and start swimming like normal.

how when he was asked to go and identify his parents bodies, his hands shook when he stepped over the glass on the ground and held his father's limp arm in his own. the arms he recognized immediately, even without being able to see his face, or the clothing that was covered in blood. the arms that would hug him so tightly, the ones that had done so not more than three hours prior. the ones that were filled with so much strength when they would toss the football out in the yard.

thinking about darry curtis and how he was still just a kid

Here you go:

Chapter 18 - The Devil’s Mind (A Raphael POV)

This chapter can also be read as a One Shot.

CW: Graphic Depiction of Violence

What could be worse than a tadpoled devil? A devil walking among mortals, concealing her infernal identity while searching for a cure. But when a certain charming, manipulative devil crosses her path, things take a dangerous turn. He’s after more than just a contract - he holds the key to her past and her exile. As their fates intertwine, the line between enemy and ally blurs. And the more she uncovers about him, the harder it becomes to escape his claws… or the truth about why they’re bound together.

Enjoy!

Hey guess who's back on her bullshit

I literally had zero plans to finish this reward track but then someone shared pics of one of the final housing items in a discord I'm in and I HAD to have it for my girl Helena's apothecary wing in my mead hall.

Anyway.

Yesterday at 2pm I was on 33 so I'm actually quite pleased with my progress. Goal is to hit 80 tonight, I'm confident in my ability to hammer out at least ten levels tomorrow and Tuesday, and then if need be I'll buy out the rest with Mithril, which I can replenish with the current coupons.

No I didn't run every single mission in the game yesterday just for fun. It was fun, though. Believe it or not this has been a reasonably relaxing weekend project.

I wish they would make it so that later levels of the reward track took the same amount of LIXP to fill out as earlier levels. It kind of makes the last 30 levels or so feel more like a chore than the rest of it. Or at least give us percentage amounts for how far we've got through each reward so there's something more tangible to track it with.

I've been gifted a healthy number of new followers over the week and along with that also some "off" messages. Not all intentionally negative. I wanted to put it out there: I'm an adult and a professional artist so I use my real name as my user. I'm a real person and this is my trade. Please be aware I may draw subjects covering mature themes as I please! I use 4 custom tags:

shushbosh for asks and text posts

boshdraws for all my own artworks

boshspice for content containing nudes or sexual themes. Always censored properly for tumblr's pearl-clutching sake

And not my art for the obvious

You can mute any of these tags to curate your experience with me! I'm not obligated to change how I post or create ♡ it's also ok if you find you'd rather block me! No harm done

okay i’ve cleaned out my notifs

Something Familiar

[artheresy]

Part One (Astral Express

Random post ideas I got, but I'm just listing my opinions on aspects of the HSR designs, including things I may dislike or would at least change about certain playable HSR design, because I am currently planning some of my own designs/redesigns to use for future art

Disclaimer!! I am not a professional character designer, I am not saying any of my ideas for them are objectively better, and I am not bashing any of these designs. I actually like most if not literally all of the playable designs so far! This is just my lil opinions of how I would change them

The List part 1:

Stelle: I actually like the turquoise band around her thigh, I just don't like how they didn't take the opportunity to sprinkle in some more of that color into her design. She had a lot of little details in her outfit, especially the back of her coat, so there's a lot of places where a few splashes of turquoise could be added whether in those little details or in some of her other adornments just so that the band stands out less . I think I would change more than just that ofc, but that's one of the things about her that stood out the most to me. Also honestly? Maybe I would scale down the sheer amount of detail she has on her back (which as someone who has tried to draw her from the back view o h my g o d), and add some more detail on her sides like her arms and her legs maybe? I dunno, I think her design is really really nice, but there are places the amount of details could be more evenly spread to.

March 7th: While I don't mind her design that is especially center around her top half, March definitely has a clutter design particularly around her waist when you look at her full body in detail. Clutter that manages to mix in some odd color choices too/ I'd probably clean it up, or better place the little bits of clutter to feel like it matches more and change up the colors in order to at least go with the rest of her outfit. Like the gold makes sense, not only with her details of golden buttons throughout her design but also the golden ticket she holds showing she is passenger of the Astral Express, but why the black fabric? How is it supposed to work in terms of construction with the rest of her outfit, I'd keep her black to only the little accented bands on her thigh and neck rather than anything big on her waist. Why is the thing holding her camera orange, why does she have this random bright green button, why does she have seemingly two different belts?? I think March would have a better sense of what goes together than that. Overall, still an adorable design.

Dan Heng: He is very nicely designed, and I think a lot of his personality comes through in it, way better than any alternative for him. I feel like I can get a better sense of his nature and overall how he feels and who he is in it. The one unfortunate aspect of his design for me though is that it feels a bit... bland? for a lack of better word. Not that he's devoid of details or anything, very nice to see him not having a particularly busy design, but a lot of those meaningful details tend to be pushed to his back or his arms. I would probably bring a few more of the details that can be to the front or maybe add more? It just feels as though there is something lacking in the design, maybe more on a coloration front than construction. Speaking of coloration, I'd likely change the way the details around his waist are colored, all the same hue and yet different shades also getting an ombre? It's a little messy, but not a big issue to be honest. That's just my view of it though, still love his design for how much it really lets his character shine through unlike Another One which I will eventually get into and explain my thoughts on in the Luofu post.

Himeko: Listen, she's beautiful, she's gorgeous. I absolutely adore her and her color palette especially, it's such a nice blend of elements with the gold all mixed in. However, her silhouette is awful like it's so messy, and I really dislike how weighed down she feels. I wish she looked just a bit different, wish her clothes looked a bit lighter. She's a Nameless, she's their navigator, she's the one who repaired the Astral Express herself!! I wish she had more details to reflect all of that, and I already have ideas for how it could be done that would end up alleviating some of the weight placed on her with all of those heavy, layered fabrics. Additionally, I think there's a better way to highlight those elements while still making her look elegant, gorgeous, and ornate. Yeah, I love Himeko, I do like her currently design a lot, but I think more could be done to show off more sides of her. She's the one I probably have the clearest image for so far. Like I can imagine her in a nice set of slacks, a deep brown tone that goes well with her coat, and either on the sides or the front of the bottom, they have slits revealing these ruffles showing through similar to the ruffles of her coat sleeves. They have golden adornments along them, very sleek and fitting her figure well to keep with a very elegant appearance. Perhaps she has suspenders as well, maybe only one side to fit with their habit of asymmetrical designs. All with a nice white blouse or even some kind of button up, buttons popped open and collar folded in a more fashionable style. Even more hammering on the asymmetry, maybe for side where she actually wears her coat, the sleeve is much shorter to not interfere with the jacket's ruffles. I don't know, that's just a little idea of changing up the construction of her outfit that I had, but I'll see how it looks on paper when I draw it.

Welt: Okay listen, I need to look up more about his lore before I can truly say anything about him. Looking at his design, and with what I do know about him, I do adore it. His color palette here with the grey tones making up the majority of it for his upper body with the accents of an almost like cool toned brown and the darker shades of grey and black coming in. It's so nicely balanced, I don't feel like he had too many elements or too many overlapping fabrics that complicate the shape. It's a competent design, and while I think someone with more knowledge on him could find more places to add details, with what I know about him, I do really like the way he looks. If I were to change one thing... I would give him more wrinkles. I know why his physical appearance doesn't match what his true age is, but I still think he deserves a few more wrinkles PLEASE that's the only way I can think to truly elevate him at the moment, give him a few more wrinkles he'd look so good with them. Whenever I see art of people giving him more wrinkles I ascend... Okay well, I can think of something I would do color wise, but I'm still on the fence about it.

I think I'll leave things there for now. I don't have as much to say on these designs in particular. I think generally they're pretty solid, and even with the ones I can think of more changes for like Himeko's, I still greatly adore a lot of elements from it. The Astral Express' base designs definitely aren't the ones I have a lot of gripes with or things to say aside from suggestions for Himeko, we'll get to those eventually (those ones in particular are Serval and DH IL, both for primarily character reasons rather than aesthetic reasons like some other opinions I have.) But yeah, the next post will be for the Stellaron Hunters since I couldn't fit them into this so look out for that!
