alternate opm universe where the suffering isn't perpetual idk
#opm#one punch man#flashy flash#speed o sound sonic#flasoni#flashsonic#carma art#suggestive#i was experimenting with a more lineart centric style again to see how i felt about it and i think i like my current way wayy more#just vibes results everything#also usually i like zooming in more but i wanted to try uncropped figures... it kept me from getting into detail work though so#again. i like my normal way#but um. i already finished this and i think it looks cool even if its not my best work ever so im posting it#there isnt enough flasoni stuff bc you need to go wayyyy too deep down the opm rabbit hole to encounter them#so im being the change i want to see in the world i guess (aka me almost constantly with my rarepairs and interest in sparse fandoms)#sigh.

it’s hard being a chill and patient person in a fandom full of people who jump to the worst conclusions and think everything is going to implode on itself at the slightest sign of things going wrong
#.txt#this is about qsmp#during purgatory i was just going with the flow like eh this is weird but it could be fun#then i look at my dash and everything is on fire and children are dying and people are leaving the fandom#and i’m like Huh#and then with the quackity studios stuff similar shit is happening where i’m just like#man chill the fuck out it’s not the end of the world#just wait and see the end result before coming to rash conclusions and assuming shit about what’s happening#behind the scenes when we Don’t Know what’s going on#just Chill just Vibe it’s all good man

Whooooo could have predicted this?
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#Poorly drawn MDZS#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#fairy#I love that they go up a mountain to check out fake ghost rumours.

I don't know anything about swans so maybe this isn't accurate, but I do have a pet bird and holding him like Leo is holding Donnie would be an INCREDIBLE show of trust. Sleeping so close to a human-not even napping, full-on beak under his wing fast asleep, even my 'tiel doesn't normally sleep like that when he naps on me. And allowing Leo to wrap his arms around his wings means Swanny must feel VERY safe with him. It's sad and heartwarming all at the same time.
Perfect.
#coz this is EXACTLY what im going for ; w ;#this is precisely the vibes god bless#just like#in general over the next several updates and this prev update#know that donnie feels#BAD#and that almost everything he does he does in an attempt to seek some sense of comfort and safety#his behavior is a result of everything feeling horrible and numb and helpless and him trying to find something that makes him feel#a little bit better#even when its not obvious#asks#swanatello#swanatello asks

The art style of Cloud Castle is absolute ass bro why are their eyes so big
Idk man it just looks.... off
I wish they brought back the og art style like Blue Scarab Hunt because that was gorgeous
Well if you’re referring to the book's artstyle as a whole, then calm down buddy the illustrations as a whole are pretty good all things considered (believe me some of the illustrations in the later books are waaaaayyyyy iffier)
But if you are referring to Danilo Barozzi’s illustrations in the book then uhhhhh… yeah I don’t blame you, I didn’t like the big anime irises either, she didn’t cook with this one,,,
The interesting thing is Barozzi also did pieces for Secret of the Snow and those looked fine (she did well enough that I have to squint to determine which ones were done by her). My guess is either she did a lot of the illustrations for the latter half of SotS and we just got used to it, or it’s because the artstyle of special editions 2 and 3 were more… experimental? Books 4 onwards developed a very specific… look for the artstyle that adhered very closely to the main book illustrations of Spanish Dance Mission onwards, thus the illustrators had to follow suit, resulting in whatever looks off to look especially off.
(Even with this set of pictures, I’m only about 70% sure these are Barozzi’s because of how alike yet different the styles are from each other in the book. The first one could be Barozzi’s, but it could also be Giuseppe Facciotto’s, since he also did illustrations for SotS and his stylization means he sometimes puts the eyes really close to each other in a way that’s weird but still makes sense somehow.) On the contrary, books 2 and 3 (and I would probably even include book 1 there) had a more experimental look to the illustrations, which seems to be based more on (and this is just a theory of mine) Giuseppe Facciotto’s iconic work for the covers of Mouseford Academy books 2-12, 14, 15 and 17 in the English books (he did waaayyy more covers for the Italian Mouseford books— he was basically the cover guy for the Mouseford books for a WHILE) as well as the books from Spanish Dance Mission to Lost Letters. If you’re wondering why those covers go as hard as they do, then now you know why.
(These aren’t all of Facciotto’s works for the covers we know in English but you can see that he popped off <3)
But yeah as you can see with special editions 2 and 3, the art direction seems to be heavily inspired by Facciotto’s artstyle.
However, when Barbara Pellizzari’s works became the aesthetic poster child of the books’ brand, that was reflected in the illustrations and how their aesthetic changed, as seen in the main books and how they look currently, special editions 4-9, and the Treasure Seekers trilogy.
This new profile thing of the girls? This was done by Pellizzari (coloring was done by Flavio Ferron), and thus it became the main reference for how the girls look in the book’s illustrations.
And it’s not just in the general direction to the artists for how to draw the Thea Sisters, but also in the direction given to the colorists. Alessandro Muscillo was the colorist for the special edition books since book 1 and the Treasure Seekers trilogy, and you can see that the direction for the style varied through books 1-3, like maybe direction was experimenting with the mood the illustrations were to convey, beginning with the cartoony and bright colors of book 1, easing into the more grounded and layered palettes of books 2 and 3
Then book 4 was when they transitioned to using digital art /j
I jest, but seriously book 4 was the debut of the coloring style we end up keeping for the rest of the special editions and for all of Treasure Seekers, which is very… bright :D
(I would show more picture examples but I manually took pictures of my physical copies for the Cloud Castle and SotS illustrations and gwuh I’m too lazy to grab my entire collection just to take pictures,,)
Bright as in like… the colors are very defined and saturated. I dunno how to describe it, but when you see it, you get what I mean. It’s very bright and pretty and colorful and it stands out. There are still variations that happen on occasion (Star Fairies in particular uses a good dose of airbrush for the lighting and shadow effects, and Crystal Fairies looks like someone had a bit of fun using sparkle brushes), but other than that, it’s very bright. I don’t hate it, but I do acknowledge that yeah, if I was introduced to the series when it had fully transitioned to the new style, I never would’ve gotten into the series in the first place, because the older books had something that didn’t make it feel specifically catered to girls. The colors were bright, but not too bright. Colorful, but unified. They weren’t that complicated, and they didn’t have to be because the colorists (plural, there were at least 3 per book once upon a time) were popping the hell off with the colors they were given. But y’know, the newer books’ consistent style did give me a good spot to practice drawing mouse furries so I’m not complaining too much about the newer style, haha.
(Tiny baby E’s (it’s literally from 2020 what’re you on about mate) her first mouse Violet drawing using Barbara Pellizzari’s artstyle in Treasure Seekers 1 as an anatomy guide!!)
With that said tho, yeah I miss the old books -m- dunno if it’d fit the aesthetic of the special editions but m a n we could’ve had it and it probably would’ve looked cool
Also the illustrations go way harder in the older books, like Prince's Emerald? I've talked about Prince's Emerald and how it goes hard before, and I still stand by it and say that it does in fact still go hard
Maybe it won't fit the uh splash of color they gave the hardcovers, but imagine they grabbed Giulia Basile's coloring work for the graphic novels and used that as sort've a basis for the coloring style of the hardcovers. Not exactly the same-- would probably still add a touch of whimsical watercolor and/or paint to the very cel-shaded style, but we could've had something pretty dope -m-
Anyway that's my ramble simultaneously defending the hardcovers' artstyle and reminiscing on what could've been haha
#geronimo stilton#thea stilton#thea sisters#questions with e#rambles#the style of the older books is gorgeous but the main thing I'm wondering is can it pull off fantastical whimsy#that's the main thing i dunno if it can do (i would love to be proven wrong tho)#the style is so grounded that i'm wondering if it can pull off what the hardcovers needed it to do#which is convey the otherworldly fantastical thrill of exploring the fantasy worlds (which uh the newer books were able to do but#my main gripe is that fantasy and reality are near indistinguishable in vibes coloring-wise#sure there are sparkles and stuff is more saturated but the girls' dorm in book 4 still has the same-ish feel of the land of clouds#i dunno what it is. the bright colors just feel mundane somehow and don't take a shift when returning to reality)#looked at my books again and i think it might be the fact that the later books have no grounding color?#compare book 3 to book 5 and you'll see it the most distinctly methinks#the newer coloring style doesn't have a color that grounds the illustrations' palettes and thus everything's always bright 100% of the time#the girls' colors are always at their most saturated#like they're always under broad daylight in terms of lighting#it's not eyebleeding or anything but they don't look affected by the lighting in the setting they're currently in#and the result is it looks.... meh?#we get so used to the bright colors that they end up looking meh somehow#i'm not an art expert by any means this is just my observations as someone with a little too much brainrot

Evil Dead II (Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn, 1987)
"Honey... you're holding my hand too tight."
"Baby, I ain't holding your hand."

Campbell's Ash appears to have developed too‚ entering the film a much more mature#more self assured presence than the Ash of ED1; he promptly gets his ass handed to him by ghost wind and spends the next half hour losing#his mind (and hand). a delightful‚ playful‚ darkly subversive take on the big studio horror sequel and honestly just a brilliant film

this is like my ummm... i don't know, like my holy grail? i am like extremely anti-flanderization, if i ever worked in the industry or something i would just be doing all in my power to make sure it never happens or for this to almost never be broken. i'm pretty sure i have it drilled into my head more than the writers did at this point
#talk#camp lazlo#s4...#like it's just the result of me being a serialized girlie playing with episodic cartoons but#idk...#joe murray is such a cool guy#and a lot of the vibes of other stuff that i've seen i feel like has a kinder tone at times almost#i don't think camp lazlo should be mean but it kinda is sometimes...#''i take camp lazlo too seriously'' >always takes everything too seriously#but in turn. i really need to work on my cartoon skills#i get too logical about it i need to learn... a Funny

#kneaded it more it sounds like#it was also a slightly more moist dough so I wasn't sure if that was why#I mean maybe kinda because the dough was nice and soft so it was really easy to just get into a groove smooshin it lol#this is a very casual-- well it's the 'measure everything with a mug' peasant loaf that went around on here YEARS ago#and it has never steered me wrong but since it is so Vibes sometimes I get a result that makes me go ???? how...#about me

im so worried about. roan. i know theyre literally my character but im worried
#feeding my dogs thinking about how they feel after breaking away from bhaal#empty furious lonely devastated ecstatic. afraid numb sheer relief. it goes back and forth#going from relieved to be free to enraged at bhaal for everything to desperately wanting to return to him and then hating themself for it#i think they try to find information about their foster parents. some kind of desperate hope that the memory of killing them is just#a result of their brain being excavated by orin#who i think they cared for! in their way! by the time of the absolute plot there's barely anything left that hasn't been honed by bhaal into#an implement of destruction#but orin is family; her blood is diluted but they still share it. roan sees the way she plays with her bodies as selfishness#also that seems to be the way sarevok sees it and that's the vibe i get from the book/letter durge writes her#which is interesting that she kept it#anyway. roan kills her because they have to but even doing that feels familiar to them. some distant thought in the back of their mind#that says they always knew it would end this way. and some part of them berating orin for not killing them#thinking that this is what they meant; if she had just listened even a little bit she couldve been bhaal's chosen#but she chose personal glory and satisfaction over bhaal and that's why she failed#and i wonder just how much durge changes afterwards. how much of their thoughts still revolve around murder#like. habitually. ofc it obviously varies for everyone but

‘omg that thing you made is so cool you should make tiktoks/videos about it and would get so many views!’ yes that does sound kind of appealing sometimes but there is the unchanging fact that when I’m possessed by The Insanity and in the midst of a creative hyperfixation frenzy there is literally nothing that would completely utterly ruin the entire appeal of the activity than having to stage and film the process :|
#like the vibe would be killed and I’d probably just never do the project#I love the solitude of my little projects!!!#but then yeah it would be nice if I could share them with others when I’m done#but everything has to be a tutorial or {insert activity} with me these days it can’t just be a final result#diary of lord edge

Leo’s playlist got some updates btw, bc I realized I should change it up now that I’ve got a better grasp on who he is. So here are the new songs:
Murder Your Memory- Title Fight
You Think Your Skull is a Mighty Fortress- Dirt Poor Robins
Poison Tree- Grouper
All The Things She Said- Poppy
Me and the Devil- Soap&Skin
#eric finally speaks#but ywah so the songs:#Murder Your Memory is obvious he doesnt remember much#Mighty Fortress deals with the fact i myself am keeping a lot of secrets about him and tbh he's doing that too#and eventually it'll all be revealed and he'll have to deal with the results of that#Poison Tree is just. it sounds so Empty.#perfect for his dissociation/clan bane#the Poppy song slaps and its great for thinking over everything you know about your sire#and realizing you dont have eought information and need to dig deeper#and as for Me and The Devil.#i offer no comment.#im devasted that DPR is doing ai shit really but what other song fits the exact energy i wanted to portray about his situaution#leo vibes#leo playlist

"[Elvis] always appreciated compliments rendered him, the gifts he received or the considerations extended to him. Only when he thought an ulterior motive was behind the act, did he withhold his feeling."
!!!
#the gears of my brain just ROARING#so! so!#elvis spoke passive-aggressiveness FLUENTLY#it's a common trait in people pleasers who feel hemmed in by obligation; they can't say no even when they need to or want to#so elvis 90% of the time could be like 'i love giving you things i will give you so much here is everything ok do you need anything else'#but when that wall hits ... and it could be because he feels particularly self-conscious or he PICKS UP ON A VIBE#any sense that he is being used or laughed at#then it's like :| ya done!#and like ... realistically he couldn't cut everyone out when he reached that point#he just had to seethe quietly forever#like the colonel or family members if they had a fight or whatever#and then! then!#think about how often he might hit this wall out of simple habit#out of fearing that a relationship would come to an end and just bailing emotionally before anything was wrong#the self-sabotage is so human and recognizable and the result of being so giving#that he had no idea how to say 'i need some space' without feeling guilty#I! Know! This! Feeling!#i just live a milder life where that anxiety doesn't interfere with many ppl#like the more i learn the more in love i am with the colonel/elvis confrontation in the film#framing it as transactional 'we have both lived from each other'#it's likeeeee that's what elvis most feared his relationships were and also what he most wanted to HEAR someone ADMIT#because then there's no doubt no need to feel guilty (much)

i’ll never understand how ppl can watch games of our rivals
#like why would you torture yourself watching city right now#like i can’t get myself to open livescore to see the result cause i’m so anxious over them playing#and i know they’re winning cause my dad’s watching the game and i saw it on the tv#but i wish i didn’t#and i heard the commentator mention arsenal#and it upsets me cause i know he’s talking about us dropping points#and i don’t mean to be rude i promise#if you can watch it and want to watch it than by all means do so#i’m just saying it could never be me#i’m always too stressed to know how the others are doing#so i ignore all the other games and check the result at night#it’s interesting how differently ppl deal with these kind of things#i guess??#like some of us want to know exactly what’s going on#and others (me) want to hide and ignore everything#anyway. if ur watching the game pls send city all the bad vibes
