ok look heres my confession. any time you post abt smirnova as a ship you are talking about me bc NOBODY else ships it. i proposed the ship years ago as a crackship purely so me and a friend could write dubcon-medical-fetish-gorefic. i dont think they go on romantic coffee dates i think temnova keeps him chained to a radiator in her basement . thats what kind of ship this is . if you hate smirnova bc you think im implying temnova would ever romantically love a man then your hate is justified bc thats never what i meant to imply. its like lesbians cant even torture men in their basements without people thinking its a ROMANTIC thing nowadays.. godd.

Thanks to the research I had to do today I was able to discover that the artist for Oblivion's iconic character class images was Natalia Smirnova.
[Natalia Smirnova] - image sourced from an interview she gave to ElderScrolls.net
Natalia designed all artistic portions of Oblivion's UI interface. She made: "everything from the style creation to the very last tiny button."
She also did a lot of Illustrations on paper and worked on some promotional artwork for the game.

Day 4 - Ship (DragunovxOphelia)
Originally, i was making them both interact for the sake of drawing prompt on February 2024. But then i see vision of them both and felt like, "hmp, i think this can work. They can work."
And for the first time I feel like i want to give Ophelia a happy ending, and make Dragunov as the key for her to achieve it. (pingu no longer emo ahh edge lord) I love (this probably biased) how Ophelia's power could match with Dragunov's. Coming in package with intelligent and their traits too, thinking about balance since it's one of the important key for relationship.
Funny because before Dragunov, it's literally Captain Price's timeline and there's two fate lies with him. No spoiler though i will explain more in the future!
I was very nervous about launching Ophelia also as OC in Tekken universe, but turns out people likes her! but it's kinda in the past so idk how people see her now and i wish they still like her'-' but again, this ship makes me happy and it didn't bring any harm for anyone so why should i stop? I hope people likes her more in the future.

I would rather see a ballerina come off pointe during the rose adagio than tightly gripped, barely moving, inflexible and unstable balances. I hate watching ballerinas who can't do it naturally and gracefully. If you can't do it, you shouldn't be cast in the role of Aurora.
This is how it should be (yes, I purposely chose someone who doesn't put their arm into third because I don't like the arm going up and down into third):
It should not be this:
I was even cheering for Eva because I enjoyed other clips of her Aurora. But her rose adagio was ruined because the balances were so bad. Sigh.
And it wasn't just Eva. Elizaveta Kokoreva didn't fare much better with the balances. It wasn't as bad, but it still was stiff and too quick and rushed and didn't look good.
The new generation of Bolshoi ballerinas have much to improve compared to ballerinas such as Anna Nikulina (who absolutely freaking slays the balances)
