I don't have the words for this but. Art and science are always hand in hand.

The perfectionism of artists has them researching stuff in a way that only scientists can compare. Some artists become experts in biology or anatomy. Other special interests have them going down rabbit holes to make them better at their art.

Disney animators said "we are perfecting the code for this snow if it kills us" and researched and invented code until it acted like real snow in Frozen and snow scientists were like hey. Did we just fucking solve the Dyatlov Pass mystery. And the animators answered no. We made snow. YOU applied the knowledge and did the experiments to solve what could have happened at Dyatlov Pass.

And it was a team effort because of course it was. You can't have art without science. And you can't have science without art.

#art #science #anyway please start writing stories where an artist and a scientist are best friends #but it's the artist who is completely unhinged about creating the perfect thing #and the scientist is the one going 'i need you to take a breath and instead of asking can i do this ask SHOULD i do this'

since Eng is getting 7.5 soon(?), I felt motivated to go back to my Meleanor rig and make her a couple of lesson animations! ...except for alchemy, because the cauldron bubbles proved too hard to photoshop around, whoops.

maybe she just got lost on her way to the classroom...?

(credit: backgrounds are from the game, I just put her on top of 'em)

(aside from the backgrounds, this is not an edit, I drew her from scratch! please do not tag or treat as an edit!)

Actually feeling the summer here at my place. 🏖️☀️

(I just ripped off Steven's dialogue from someone else's post :b )

#It's just a funny thing to say lol #connverse #Connie Maheswaran #Steven Quartz Universe #SU #my shiz #Summer!#Steven Universe #skedoobles #SU fanart #The summer heat came a little late. It should 've been here since March but it kept raining instead. 😔 Dang climate change #I mean I do like rainy but my sinus tends to act up during cold weather. 😑 Plus I do a lot of cleaning that benefits more if there's #a lot of sun to dry things up faster.

I've had this pose ref saved for a while and the Superman set photos just gave off the same energy 👉🏻👈🏻

The reference is this photo of Katharine Hepburn as Antiope and Colin Keith-Johnston as Theseus in the 1932 play 'The Warrior's Husband' (and I'd love for people to turn into a draw your otp meme pls pls pls this pose is so good)

And also, of course, the Superman (2025) set photos

#superfamilyweek #superman #dcu #clois #lois lane #clark kent #i was actually gonna post this a few days ago but then i found out about the superfamily week #it wasn't made for it but i hope you can accept this humble offering even if it doesn't really fit the prompts #art #digital #fanart #live-action #dc #regular #final #colour #this actually from june when the set photos came out and i just got completely obsessed and went into a clois haze #it all looks so good though!! the whole thing!!!! i'm vibrating with excitement just thinking about it!!!!!!!#if this film isn't good i'm gonna be sooo disappointed you guys have no idea how much i'm looking forward to it #but anyway. ART RAMBLES: as i mentioned on the tags of my last drawing this piece gave me SUCH a headache #i think it's probably cos it was just supposed to be a quick sketch so i used a more stable pencil brush #but then i really liked it so i decided to properly colour it instead of just doing the watercolour thing i usually do for sketches #but with finished pieces i like the lineart to be kinda messy and the sketch to even show through bit #and since i used the more stable brush for the sketch it ended up looking WAY too clean. not like my stuff at all.#so i just started throwing stuff at the wall to see what could make it more interesting. full background! actual lineart! texture layers!#and this here is what i was the happiest with. i don't... love it though. it should be looking way more interesting given the pose #and then i also did the purge girl halfway through this and it looked SO good right out of the bat (pun intended)#so i went a bit into a spiral. did some realistic stuff i'll post soon. and now am trying out a thick black lineart style.#(i'll definitely still use the coloured lines for the sketchy watercolour stuff though. it just looks way too cute)

Deeply ill about the way Nemesis' interactions with Melinoë start at "You don't deserve this (you're not good enough)" and slowly morph into "You don't deserve this (you deserve better than this)"

#hades game #hades 2 #nemesis #melinoë #melnem #LIKE. OH MY GOD. OH MY FUCKING GOD #nemesis whole *thing* is fairness. she can't handle when things are unfair. and the hand melinoe has been dealt is deeply unfair #the air of 'you shouldnt be doing this i should be doing it instead' stays but becomes 'this is a burden you shouldn't have to bear alone'#and i just. AAAAAAA

candy 🤯 !!

Andrew: Yuki, put some pants on. We have company.

Yuki: Company? Please, it’s just Candy.

Candy: Hello to you, too, little sister. Shitty dye job, by the way.

#ts4 #ts4 gameplay #sims 4 gameplay #postcard: andrew side story #something in my huge ginormous mind told me i should introduce candy and rory oaklow to each other and make them freak down #(mortifying idea to their siblings ofc)#best thing about playing with premades is everything i do becomes canon bc i said so #candy is so alt girl in pink and camo print to me and idk why i didn’t make her wear an outfit like that instead 🚶🏽‍♀️#it’s also important to me that the trio of roommates are comfortable enough with each other to hang out in their underwear in the common #areas 🤝🏾 although yuki’s the only one that does it #sim: candy behr #sim: andrew park #sim: yuki behr

it is insane how normal i am medicated like. you mean this was an option the whole time. what

#theresbeen some hiccups like the first month i started to realize my work drive was 90% fear based #so ivehad to develop like actual work schedule and discipline thats not just 'everyone will hate me if i dont'#but its been working! now getting stuff done actually... feels.... good?#instead of like throwing water over one fire only to run to the next one #like before nothing was ever satisfying. i was always just running around panicked #now im like. okay this is what i have to get done today. yay! i finished it! now i go to bed. okay now its the next day #the only other thing ive noticed is ive become seemingly like. more. autistic acting.#like i get More fixated on my special interests now. i can think about something for hours straight instead of getting guilty and thinking #'oh im being greedy im being lazy with my time i should be doing something productive'

"Do your best today! I'll be waiting here when you get home, starlight~💕"

had two busy days of work outside of my cave and the only thing that kept me going was the sight of my housewife/househusband Eclipse waiting for me at home

that is, the sketch of him waiting for me to finish drawing him 😂

starring @starriegalaxy's Eclipse from her Fear Factor AU/House Husband AU

#fnaf eclipse #fnaf dca #dca fandom #crab art #traditional art #bright colours #fear factor au #fear factor eclipse #all i need is a pretty househusband to come home to #is that so much to ask?#my headcanon for this AU is that Eclipse just collects frilly aprons #every time y/n comes home he's wearing a different one #i'm both happy and frustrated with this one #happy - because i'm glad i finished it and it looks nice #also i feel accomplished since it's the most ambitious illustration i've done during this exercise to get out of artblock #but also frustrated with some small things #most of it is chalked up to me not planning things head of time #namely the door #that's why the perspective is off and the colours aren't great #for some reason my focus was on the handsome apron-clad robot instead of the door no idea why #also this illustration also taught me a lot about this new lineart style i've been using #it needs more careful planning if it's going to be used as part of a larger illustration #the gradients help suggest some lighting and shading #but if it's going to be used in an illustration with a background then it needs to adjust to the lighting of the background #my previous drawings had simple shapes as a background so it didn't matter as much #but here the open doorway suggests light coming from behind Eclipse #so there are dark parts of the lineart that should be lighter #all in all i need to do more planning #but besides that this was really fun #love how chunky his pants and sleeves came out

WE ARE | EP16

#we are #we are the series #we are series #tanfang #aou thanaboon #aouboom #boom tharatorn #my edits #weareedit #AOUBOOM MAIN LEADS WHEN???#i do appreciate them and the way they’ve been portraying tanfang #i know tan was a bit over the top 99% of the time #but every scene and touch felt so genuine #and i’m not gonna credit that to new #bc he wasn’t able to direct ppw in a way that didn’t make their kisses look a bit awkward #i know scenes have to look aesthetically pleasing in some way #and that’s why we keep having to deal the ‘no one would kiss with this much space for jesus between each other’ complaints #but like look at aouboom here #this is mostly them and their acting choices in my humble opinion #and don’t get me started on the pecks #ppw BARELY touched the other one’s lips when they had to do a peck kiss #like cmon the difference between ppw and aouboom pecks is insane #i’m sorry for picking on ppw but i’m a bit sad that some of their romantic scenes were a bit lackluster #especially that very last kiss which tbh i rather wouldn’t have seen bc it felt a bit awkward to me #but that may be just me #i need new to get a bit more frisky with kiss scenes when it comes to his directing #bc i feel like friskier kiss scenes only happen when the actors mostly do their thing after finding out what the director wants #(maybe i’m completely wrong about new but tkdkfdkddkdk)#and don’t get me wrong idgaf if there are kisses or not but if there’s a kiss scene you should commit instead of holding yourself back idk #and ppw definitely need a better director to help them achieve that bc jojo was definitely better at directing them
