mariana : ''out of all the creators i think that i like slime the best , hes very funny and very crazy and i get along with him very well , i want to make love with him ''
The jump btwn the second to last and last always surprise me whenever I make one of these because I always forget to take snapshots after I start painting. It's always like: oh yeah heres the lineart with some colors- BOOM fully finished✨️
What he's holding are the Austrian imperial scepter and orb, seen below:
I was going to draw the crown too but decided I don't hate myself that much(maybe some other day), and gave him a golden laurel crown, bcs I'm obsessed with that as a motif, and also its very remincient of the boy king statue that started this whole thing!
There's some symbolism of this, both intentionally but also just historically. I love that the orb represents that the monarch is holding the world in their hand, basically every old monarchy has one of those, and I think it's very cool for symbolism. But also bcs of that, I was forced to basically draw catholic fanart so, you win some you lose some. The star halo above him head is both to reference those religious statues with star crowns(I saw them a lot in Europe and they imprinted onto my brain), as well as: his four championships of course!
lately I've noticed alot of. those type of spam bots in fandom tags. it's either more are popping up and all, that so here's a general reminder to people.
before you block them and report them for sexual content. report for spam. then block.
on phone its just report for spam, but on pc you'll see a report option that says report for spam/bot.
in the last two days I've seen more of those bots than I see in a week -which is still bad but I'm not going to be in public and scroll pass 10 links with shirtless women in it, it was less rare. so please keep this in mind when you see those bot accounts (this also goes for when they dm you, or interact in any way)
classes starting up again after spring break and oh my god there's barely more than a month to get these projects in finished states oh fuck oh god i'm going to explode this schedule was such a mistake oh my god literally growing gray hairs as we speak
