Mikami, my beloved. No matter how many times I draw you, I feel I can never quite capture your magnificence...But I will always keep trying. Inspired by a photo I found on Pinterest.

Still seeing feminists in 2023 claiming that ‘emasculation isn’t real’ and it’s still baffling me.

How can you look at the lived realities of Asian and Jewish men and think “yeah these men totally aren’t emasculated and viewed as lesser males or less masculine than white men and it’s totally not dehumanising or racist or anything 😌” like. Racism against MOC doesn’t always look like portraying them as aggressive or dangerous, it can also look like viewing certain types of minority men as ‘failed’ men and ‘lacking real manhood’ as a dehumanising tactic. Myths about Jewish men previously portrayed them as having periods and being ‘basically women’. Asian men are fetishised and stripped of their manhood frequently by K-pop stans and people online who don’t realise that masculinity and gender roles look slightly different in non-western cultures.

Also… trans men. Who are FORCEFULLY emasculated and feminised against their will, by genocidal bigoted conservatives, and sometimes even somewhat by other queer people telling them to ‘tone down’ their non-toxic masculinity to avoid making others uncomfortable, making themselves dysphoric and detached from their gender identities to remain palatable.

What about disabled men? Are they not also viewed as failing to achieve proper manhood? Are they not also emasculated and viewed as ‘un-male’ or ‘less male’?

Minority men absolutely can and do experience emasculation. And it’s not ‘toxic’ or misogynistic to bring it up. Feminists who care about POC in particular should not be pretending otherwise.

"Why is he holding her hand!?" James almost shouted, his voice echoing through the Great Hall. Sirius lifted his gaze from his food, finding a scene he was entirely unprepared to see.

Remus and Lily had just arrived in the Great Hall, both smiling broadly with their hands intertwined, not very subtly. Sirius felt his heart plummet, as if it had been ripped out of his chest.

"Are they...?"

"No," both Sirius and James cut Peter off sharply before he could finish. Peter rolled his eyes. "I'm just saying—"

"Moony would never do that to James," Sirius said firmly, deep down just trying to convince himself. "They're just best friends. They have been forever."

"Do you also hold hands with your best friend?" Peter asked, making it really hard for Sirius not to snap at him. "Oh, he just kissed her cheek."

Sirius turned his head so fast he was sure he had probably hurt his neck. At the girls' table, Lily and Remus were sitting so close it was almost impossible to tell where one body ended and the other began. Sirius saw Remus whisper something into Lily's ear, making her giggle loudly and hide her face in his jumper as if she were embarrassed. Sirius felt like throwing up.

"Let's go," Sirius couldn't take it anymore. He stood up from his chair and took James by the arm. "He can explain himself later."

Both boys left the Great Hall seconds later, not without shooting deadly stares at Remus and Lily, who pretended not to notice them.

Peter was trying hard to suppress a chuckle. When his friends finally left, he let himself laugh loudly. At the other table, Lily and Remus smiled knowingly at him, and he winked back.

Everything had gone according to plan.

Hi, request here. Ignore it if you want. I'm not sure if you did this already and I'm too lazy to check, but could you put Jamil in Playful stage (whatever it's called) dress and Kalim in the masquerade dress

playful dress jamil & masquerade kalim!!! :DDD

so uhhh here’s my really rough and simplified take on it??? i hope the colors look at least decent bc i was so indecisive on that part 🧍

and thank you so much for this idea!! i’ve especially been meaning to try to imagine kalim’s masquerade outfit so you gave me an excuse to do so!!

anyways i was REALLY going back and forth between sticking to the theme and just putting them on what i think looks good and i think i just. managed to do a small compromise.

also forgive me the only thing i know about about playful stage is the fox man. i haven’t seen the story 💀 (i kinda only know that it’s based on pinocchio)

so i just went off every character's playful dress outfit and took inspiration here and there (and mostly from kalim's)

also i noticed the ribbons vs tassels in the outfits, dont know what that’s about so i just. settled with tassels.

same thing with kalim i just took from jamil's masquerade outfit but flipped it and made the headwear pointier.

and i just took a few artistic liberties here and there ;;;

also i highkey avoided the elaborate patterns because im not too confident with coming up with them 😖

that’s about some of my thought process??? i’m fine with any questions if any!!

I think one of the biggest sort-of unpopular opinions I have when it comes to being an artist is that, unless they are used in moderation, using things like references, tracing, and other little tips and tricks to help you will actually hinder you at some point if you use them too much

If you rely too much on these tools you will eventually lose the confidence and the ability to use your artistic know-how to fill in the gaps yourself....and those "gaps" could be anything from proportions and anatomy to things like dynamics and even coming up with an idea for a drawing in the first place

Using too many pinterest images for your poses will at some point result in stiff art, and unless you already know how to manipulate it in your own style (the ones who do this already know how to fill in the gaps when it comes to anatomy), drawing 1:1 from a reference pose will just make your stuff look a bit boring most of the time. If you use 3D poser programs and you trace those poses all the time so you feel more comfortable with them, then at some point, again, your stuff is just going to feel stiff and a bit boring

At some point an artist has to know how to draw a hand without a reference. At some point an artist has to learn how to draw an arm without a reference. The same goes with the rest of the body, and the same goes with posing as well

Me, casually browsing Pinterest: oh cute dog, seems familiar *continues browsing before coming to an absolute halt* WAIT FUCKIN MACHETE-??

(I see the beloved gay Catholic hounds everywhere (/pos), though I’m not sure if you’re like,, cool with those folks reuploading your art ^^; )

As a side note, I needed a topic for a research project and your art has sent me on the wild trail of the historical prevalence and spread of different hound species in Medieval Europe and the Mediterranean. Your lads are officially peer reviewed XD
