I mainly based him off of butterflies, moths (specifically comet moths - they're the direct inspiration for his wings) and fireflies! there's a bit of dragonfly in there too. you probably can't tell any of this but I promise the inspiration was THERE in my HEAD while I was developing his character. :D
DUDE I KEEP SEEING PEOPLE INTERROGATING YOU OVER THE SHIPS THAT MAKE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE?????
like.....bro😭😭why does it bother them..
if it makes you uncomfortable then you can NOT TALK ABOUT IT AND GET IT OUT OF YOUR POINT OF VIEW!!!! IT'S THAT EASY!!!!! idk why you're being questioned .. it's not a big deal
the scary ship disliker is gonna come after them... and BLOCK them... truly a fate worse than death 😱😱😱 I don't even normally publically talk about my dislike of the pairing, because I'm not an asshole! I think people can like what they want. it doesn't concern me, I filter and block accordingly. but I have the right to talk about my discomfort with it just as they have the right to talk about their enjoyment of it. saying "this ship is a huge squick of mine for personal reasons" is not an attack against them.
it shouldn't be a big deal. not sure why we can't just have mutual understanding and respect.
I did a little bit of experimental stuff with the shading and background, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!
I have some animation projects that I really need to work on, so I probably wont be posting anything except for little sketches until those are finished. Stay tuned!
OH GOSH CROSS DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED BECAUSE ONCE I START I'M NEVER GONNA SHUT UP. I KNEW IT WAS JOEVER FOR ME WHEN I HEARD THIS GOOFY LITTLE LAUGH FOR THE FIRST TIME.
there's something ABOUT tintin that is so charming to me... he's like, the kind of person I'd ideally want to be, y'know? he's sort of an everyman and a jack of all trades but that doesn't stop him from standing out. he can do a little bit of everything! he's kind, polite, but he also knows how to fucking OPERATE FIREARMS so that's pretty dope of him I feel.
excuse the text but my copies of the books aren't in english for obvious reasons xD
I DUNNO, I DUNNO... he's not afraid of anything and I admire that! he's a huge sweetheart I just really like him. and you KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I REALLY LIKE A CHARACTER? IT ALL GOES DOWNHILL. I START IMAGINING MYSELF H*LDING THEIR H*ND. tintin is SUCH an embarrassing crush for me to have I feel - like come on, fucking TINTIN? - so I tried to surpress it FOREVER but look, that gets HARD when all my brain wants to do is make me have dreams at night of running through the meadows around marlinspike with him hand in hand while we laugh and goof off and tumble through the grass together!!!
I CANNOT HOLD BACK ANY LONGER OKAY. I THINK HE DESERVES KISSIES. (oh boy, THAT'D be an interesting conversation to have with haddock and calculus LMAO...)

I DO UTTERLY ADORE THE IDEA OF RAYMAN HAVING A SLIGHT BIT OF A FRENCH DRAWL TO HIS SPEECH BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT'S NOT CANON. that's okay though. I have my IMAGINATION.
rayman is with lex right yes and it only gets BETTER rayman says some cool romantic stuff in lex's nonexistent ear (i bet you're blushing rn) and then they kissed and went on their fourth wedding
