#highly recommend this artist's work

my second drawing for to know and prophesy in part by the amazing @moscca for the TLT BRE 2023!

these guys are some of the most uniquely well written, funny, tragic, complex and sympathetic characters in the series and I was so delighted to spend 27k words with them and even draw some little pictures about it

Hi!! I love this series so much, and as someone who hasn’t really drawn since they were a kid but wants to start as a hobby, do you have any advice for sort of learning to doodle on paper and get better at it? I want to start but I don’t really know how/where

The most important step in getting better at any skill is Persistence and Consistency. Practice and keep practicing! The best way to do that is to keep it fun! Picking a project helps generate ideas (e.g. drawing Pokémon, or characters from a series you like). There are also a ton of monthly prompt lists out there!

I also highly recommend scheduling in a 'drawing/practice' time in your day. For me, I started with 30-60 min before bed (bonus: its a good 'no screentime' activity), and the habit took root there.

There are a lot of 'technical' things to study but find the fun first. At a certain point you will discover you've hit a wall, and have a specific aspect/goal you want to target (colour theory, anatomy, lighting, comic layout). Then it's time to go looking for resources.

Once you have the habit and some goals, go collect some inspiration! Find people who inspire you and study their work!

Another little 'art skill builder' I recommend is the Shrimp Method! Only if you find technical challenges like this fun though (Example of one of my studies below)

I'm gonna be meta for a little bit, but huge shout out to George Lever (Sleep Token's previous producer).

Like, don't get me wrong, I love Carl Bown (he's worked with soo many of my favourite bands and killed it), and I love that Vessel himself got involved in the producing process of TMBTE. The album is amazing, everything sounds extremely clean and professional, and very, very concise.

But George Lever? That guy has a way with music that just... It's very innate. I think One was self-produced (although I'm not entirely sure), but everything else apart from TMBTE was produced by him - and you can tell.

There's this very raw and organic feeling to his work that I think it's quite rare to find nowadays. Especially the drums - I really wish he could've been the one mixing it for the last album because man, he just gets it.

When I first listened to Eden, I remember thinking "man, this drummer is insane". But then I went all the way back to One and slowly made my way to TPWBYT and ket me tell you, Jaws' drum line left me flabbergasted. I know that George and ii have been friends/working together for quite a while prior to ST, so maybe that's one reason why. But they just work so well together, everything sounds so clear and crisp, it feels almost impossible.

This is not to discredit the amazing, fenomenal work done on TMBTE - there's a reason why it's my favourite album and why it gained the traction it did - nor to downplay ii's insane skills (as if one could ever do that, he's just that good). But George's work with ST is just so, so brilliant, and I really needed to put it out there.

It's been a while since I've checked in on him, but it seems he's a bit inactive nowadays? Idk. Whatever the reason why he's no longer working with them, or why he's a bit mia (or was for a while), I wish him all the best, and I'm just so thankful for all his hard work.

@gyapona sent me this gender sheet from twitter user kr00bs to do a couple of months ago and it took me a bit to get to it but it was super fun! i was a little stumped on the soul section so there's a couple different variations on what it feels like to Me!!

first zine i've ever made ! sketched a lot of topics but decided to go with a short and simple 8 pages one, based on my experience growing up as a queer neurodivergent immigrant kid, and how it affected my self image

Just been invited into a collaborative soundscape performance art space in March and it will be the first time I’ve been playing in a performance space like that for about seven years, I am actively salivating rn

No more artists should put their Commission info in front of me because I have such a problem with wanting to get Commissions so much 😭

Every time I see a Commission Sheet I’m just like:

I think I’m mentioning this because I’m literally Commissioning @drawthethingdoppelganger again because I just couldn’t resist after seeing the recent Comms she did for @babsvibes. God, I’m so flipping excited to see how it looks after the masterpiece she gifted me back in March.

Speaking of Commissions, though, mine are open too if any of y’all want a Comm from me! :D (Gotta be a gremlin and promote myself too, pffffffft)

Well, it started as a warm-up sketch of Selene but then I remembered how much people were loving her (I saw your tags about her 👀) so... Enjoy! :D

Also, did I wrote 'werewolf' in the background in every language I was able to? Absolutely yes.

Selene is my MC from the IF, Blood Moon. It's written by the amazing and talented @barbwritesstuff ♡

Hey, love your posts! I really recommend wedding season series (hulu,2022) it has 8 episodes and it was good with the main characters whump too. I would really appreciate it if you could make some gifs from episode 4 or 5, thank you so much <3

hi my dear anon! thank you :)

gotta say, i went in just to watch the whumpy episodes you mentioned but the first episode already got me hooked. i stayed for the plot! the show is so so good! im surprised how little it’s mentioned on social media or anywhere.

the main character is so endearing and he is such a poor little meow meow i can’t. first of all, he is an orphan, has a core friend group that’s his found family (THEY ALL HAVE SUCH GOOD CHEMISTRY WITH EACH OTHER! ONE OF THE BEST FOUND FAMILY DEPICTION EVER), a doctor, a hopeless romantic, he always wants to be accepted, loved and belong somewhere, he falls in love with a girl that puts him through a ringer, she’s a mystery/a heroine and has so many secrets so she puts him in so many dangerous situations— he gets punched, beaten up (multiple times), intense interrogation, kidnapped (multiple times), tied up, shot at (multiple times), heavy angst, a fugitive, survives assassination attempts TWICE, bruises all over his face, body and robe burns (pretty sure the make-up artist is a whumper because the attention to details is just exquisite *chefs kiss*), lied to and manipulated throughout the episodes and THAT CLIFFHANGER WILL MAKE HIM TRAUMATIZED FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE THAT WAS SO AHHHHHHH! JUST WHEN HE WAS FINALLY HAPPY WITH THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE :(

the thing i love about this show is that he is the damsel in distress and she is the heroine who is this mysterious person with dark past and keeps putting him in or saving him from dangerous situations. love this kind of trope. and the actor has this natural charm that makes you feel for him… (plus he is so cute and hot and that accent *heart eyes*)

i mean look at him all cute and happy before the shit hits the fan… his little cute dance has a grip on me im weak

that being said, yes anon, i have made the gifs you asked for and then some hehe as always i got carried away. THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING REC 🧡
