Happy birthday HDL yippee!!!

[the-writer-nerd-ro]

My friend @soupy-drawz drew this excellent comic about Trans Louie that I loved so much I had to write a little sequel to it. Go read the comic here

Thank you, Soup, for letting me write this!

"Aw man, now I look like a-" Louie's breath caught, eyes widening.

"Like a boy."

Louie smiled then, hesitant, laughing a little at his stupidity. His stupidity. How had it taken him so long to see it? When he'd always had no trouble seeing all of the angles before?

Maybe because until now, a stranger had stared back any time he'd looked in the mirror.

And now Louie finally recognized himself.

He would have to file it away, of course. Pull his hood up while he schemed the best way to tell his family he was trans. They already called him Louie, that didn't have to change. He could deal with everything else for a while.

He could deal with other people not seeing him as he finally saw himself.

Or, at least he thought he could.

However, the second he stepped out of the bathroom, reaching to adjust his hood, he ran into the one other person who always saw all the angles.

Della froze. "Louie, your hair-"

"It was getting too long," he shifted from foot to foot, avoiding eye contact.

"It looks good. You look like-"

"Me," Louie finished for her. "I look like me."

Della beamed, "Yeah, you do."

To Louie's surprise, Della gathered him into a hug, whispering, "It's more than a haircut, isn't it?"

Tears sprung to his eyes unbidden.

"How did you know?" He asked, keeping his voice low.

"I've never seen you look this happy before."

"Is it okay?' Louie asked, knowing he didn't need permission, wanting reassurance anyway.

"Of course it is. Do you want to talk about it?"

Louie nodded a little, "I haven't really felt like myself, when I look in the mirror I've just been seeing someone else."

Seeing you, he thought, though he did not say it.

Della nodded. "Mirrors can be cruel and unforgiving."

"But today, when I finished cutting my hair, it was like all the pieces finally clicked together. I wasn't me before. I guess I got so good at lying I started lying to myself. I'm not a girl. I've… I've never been a girl." Saying it out loud felt like a weight off of his chest.

"I'm proud of you, Louie. I'm proud to call you my son."

The tears came faster now, and he buried his head in her shirt.

"Why didn't I see it before?" He sobbed.

"Hey, hey. There's no timeline for these things. It's never too late to find out who you are. There's no shame in taking longer than other people."

Louie didn't say anything, just clung to his mom while he composed himself.

It felt like he'd wasted his life pretending to be someone he wasn't. But maybe Della was right. Maybe it wasn't too late.

"Will you help me tell the others?" He requested when he'd finally dried his tears. Now that the dam had broken he didn't want to bide his time and hide his truth.

"Of course."

[ID: a digital drawing of Boyd from DuckTales 2017 in front of a light pink vaporwave-esque background. He is looking forward with a blank expression, his eyes obscured by light green cat eye sunglasses with dramatic highlights. He's wearing a black shirt and a light yellow tropical print shirt over the top.

The second image is the original screenshot edit that the drawing is based on, the background is simpler and there is no shading. Boyd is still wearing the sunglasses but otherwise has his normal outfit. End ID.]

Old Beach Ep cover I forgot to post

[ID: A digital drawing of Della and Dewey Duck from DuckTales 2017. Dewey is wearing his Champ Popular costume from the episode “The Rumble for Ragnarok!” Della is wearing her outfit from the Norway Adventure from the DuckTales World Showcase Adventure. Della is ruffling Dewey’s hair, her other hand on her hip. Dewey’s sunglasses are falling behind his head. They’re both smiling. End ID.]

[ID: a series of 9 illustrations featuring Louie and Boyd from DuckTales, made for the AU fanfic Daisy Bell. The first image is an extreme close up of Louie and Boyd at their age in canon. Their outfits are the same as their canonical designs except for a few color differences: Louie's hoodie is a more yellow green, and Boyd is wearing a blue bow tie instead of his usual red one. Only Boyd's body and arm are visible, he has his knees tucked under him and is holding a book open on his lap. Louie lays beside him with his chin in his hand, his eyes aren't visible but his smile is. The ground beneath them is dotted with daisies. The second image shows an older Louie, early teens. His bangs are longer and his cheeks are fluffy. He's wearing a dull green hoodie with a large daisy patch on the elbow over a light yellow sweater. There is a daisy tucked into his hair. He's holding a hand to his face, blushing and with wide eyes. The image has an off-white oval frame and is immediately next to the next image, which has Boyd looking surprised and also blushing. He's taller and his shirt sleeves are cuffed at his elbows. The next image keeps most of the elements of the prior two but has a few changes. Louie now holds his face with both hands, looking away with a shy smile. Boyd has his hand raised to his beak and smiles, raising an eyebrow. The next image shows the same designs for Louie and Boyd, no longer separated by the oval borders. They are both leaning in for a kiss with Boyd reaching a hand up to cup Louie's cheek. The next image is a close up of a sparkling emerald ring in a box. The ring itself is silver with two daisies sculpted on the visible side. Boyd's fingers are just visible at the bottom left holding the box. The next image shows Louie and Boyd's silhouettes in the foreground, light hitting one side of them. They're young adults. Boyd has his arm wrapped around Louie as they gaze at a fountain that takes up the rest of the image. The next image is of Louie as he lays in a coffin. He's holding a daisy and has the ring on his finger. Louie is wearing a black suit and tie with a light green button up. The final illustration shows Boyd sitting in a chair, back to the viewer. He's leaning forward onto a desk, hands on the sides of his head. The desk is messy, covered with papers and sticky notes, sketches and blueprints. On the wall above the desk is a bulletin board covered with more papers and blueprints. A large photo of Louie is pinned in the middle. End ID.]

Full pieces from the Daisy Bell PMV cuz the video kinda crunched them lol

[ID: A digital drawing of an adult version of Louie from DuckTales 2017, a cover for the au fanfic Daisy Bell. The drawing is split down the middle, with half of it flipped upside down, due to this the second image is the same drawing flipped so that the other side is upright. On the upright side of the first image Louie is laying in a field of daisies, wearing a black suit, dead. He is holding a larger daisy in his visible hand and his eyes are closed, this is the same way he appears at his funeral. The flipside of the drawing has Louie laying on a pile of blueprints and crumpled papers. He is wearing a light green sweater with golden daisies on it. He gazes forward sadly. The bottom of the drawing fades out into a dark blue, "Daisy Bell" is written in lowercase cursive that is a glowing light blue. End ID.]

Without further ado the main cover for Daisy Bell!!!

[ID: A digital drawing of Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby from DuckTales 2017 with a dinosaur. From left to right: Louie is flicking through a wad of cash, smiling nefariously. Dewey has an arm wrapped around the dino, he’s smiling and pointing up at it. The dinosaur- which is light green with a yellow underbelly, brown eyes, and light orange feathers on its head, shoulders, and tail tip -is smiling down at Dewey with it’s arms wrapped around him, Louie, and Huey. Huey is frowning at Dewey judgementally. Webby stands close to the rest but not in the dino’s arms, she’s grinning at it with her fists raised in excitement. End ID.]

Drawing I worked on during the stream a couple weeks ago! It’s HDLW with the dinosaur from the Donald’s Dino Bash promo pieces. Possibly the first iteration of this drawing? I was originally planning to give the kids designs based on the Dino Bash character costumes,, but I realized a bit late that this composition really didn’t work to showcase said designs. I’m hoping to workshop the designs with a few drawings and come back to this piece, but that would require the whole “workshopping” part so it may be a while ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[ID: A digital drawing of teenage versions of Louie and Boyd from DuckTales 2017. Louie is wearing a lighter green hoodie with a white trim and hood along with a pair of black jeans. He has a mullet, with a crown hair clip and two hair pins arranged in an ‘x’ in his longer bangs. His back is facing the viewer as he pulls Boyd down by the arm to kiss his cheek. Boyd is wearing a longer button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. Half of the shirt is tucked into his pants while the other half sticks out. He also has black suspenders and a belt, his pants are a dark tan and cuffed before the drawing cuts off. He’s still wearing his bowtie. He’s smiling and holding a plate of pink sheet cake. A light pink heart floats over their heads and they’re both blushing. End ID.]

ough good Astro B.O.Y.D! post tomorrow but here’s birthday Boyd for now

[soupy-cosmos]

[Video ID: a short illustrated PMV featuring Louie and Boyd from DuckTales, made for the AU fanfic Daisy Bell. A majority of the frames are circular, dark brown words appear on the off-white background. The first frame is an extreme close up of Louie and Boyd at their age in canon. Their outfits are the same as their canonical designs except for a few color differences: Louie's hoodie is a more yellow green, and Boyd is wearing a blue bow tie instead of his usual red one. Only Boyd's body and arm are visible, he has his knees tucked under him and is holding a book open on his lap. Louie lays beside him with his chin in his hand, his eyes aren't visible but his smile is. The line "Daisy, daisy, give me your answer, do." Is written across the border. The second frame shows an older Louie, early teens. His bangs are longer and his cheeks are fluffy. He's wearing a dull green hoodie with a large daisy patch on the elbow over a light yellow sweater. There is a daisy tucked into his hair. He's holding a hand to his face, blushing and with wide eyes. The frame appears as the word "I'm" is sang, and only takes up the left half of the screen. "Half" is sang as the other half of the frame appears, with Boyd looking surprised and also blushing. He's taller and his shirt sleeves are cuffed at his elbows. Both halves change as the word "Crazy" appears in all capital letters at the bottom of the screen. Louie now holds his face with both hands, looking away with a shy smile. Boyd has his hand raised to his beak and smiles, raising an eyebrow. The next frame shows the same designs for Louie and Boyd, no longer separated by the circle borders. They are both leaning in for a kiss with Boyd reaching a hand up to cup Louie's cheek. The text reads "All for the love of you." The next frame is a close up of a sparkling emerald ring in a box. The ring itself is silver with two daisies sculpted on the visible side. The text reads "It won't be a stylish marriage." With the word "stylish" capitalized and underlined. The next frame shows Louie and Boyd's silhouettes in the foreground, light hitting one side of them. They're young adults. Boyd has his arm wrapped around Louie as they gaze at a fountain that takes up the rest of the image. The text reads "I can't afford a carriage." The next frame is a close up of Louie's face as he lays in a coffin. He's holding a daisy. The circular framing is gone, leaving only some soft faded corners. The text sits at the top left and reads "But you'll look sweet." The line is continued in the next frame, with "Upon the seat." written along the top edge of the coffin. It shows a further down view of the previous image. The daisy is completely visible now, along with the ring on Louie's finger. Louie is wearing a black suit and tie with a light green button up. The final illustration shows up with a blue overlay making the entire image very dark. The text is now bright blue and reads "Of a bicycle built for two." Once "two" appears the overlay is removed, so that the image is more clearly visible. Boyd sits in a chair, back to the viewer. He's leaning forward onto a desk, hands on the sides of his head. The desk is messy, covered with papers and sticky notes, sketches and blueprints. On the wall above the desk is a bulletin board covered with more papers and blueprints. A large photo of Louie is pinned in the middle. The Final frame has a simple black background with the title "Daisy Bell" written across it in light blue lowercase cursive. It fades into black a little at the bottom, where the credits are written in the off-white used in the earlier frames. "Written by: the-writer-nerd-ro and" soupy-drawz" and "Illustrated by: soupy-drawz" End ID.]

sooo

[ID: A screenshot from the author's notes of the fanfic Daisy Bell. The text starts with a bullet point and reads "The fic is titled Daisy Bell after the song of the same name, I've seen it used in dark vhs-style pmvs and thought that that vibe would fit this story very well! It was originally just a placeholder name but it ended up sticking lol." End ID.] remember how i said Daisy Bell would make a good pmv? :>

the specific version of the song is from this video!!

[ID: a digital drawing of June from DuckTales 2017 as a unicorn centaur. Her upper half is the same as her normal design aside from a glowing horn on her forehead. Her torso ends at the bottom of her sweater vest and becomes a horse body the color of her canon design’s skirt. The hooves are not defined. The tail is the lion-like type tail that is used in some unicorn illustrations but the tip resembled one of June’s pigtails. June is holding her fists up and smiling to the right excitedly. The background is a simple dark blue pine forest and she is surrounded by fireflies. End ID.]

A June swordhorse for June-icorn!

[ID: A digital drawing of an icy blue cat wearing a white hoodie with a black hood, pocket, and trim and black scribbles across the middle of the hoodie and the sleeves. A pair of blue earbuds connect to the cat’s ears and go into its pocket. Its hands are in its pockets and its looking up with a shocked expression and glowing blue eyes. Its hair, tail, and hoodie pullstrings float up as if wind is blowing upwards. The background is a pastel rainbow heart styled to look like digital sound waves, the heart is full of stars. The second image is a rendition of the drawing from the previous year. The third image is a collection of all versions of the drawing, each labelled with their respective year going from 2016 to 2023. End ID.]

2023 Redraw!!

[the-writer-nerd-ro]

It's Tuesday round-up time It's always been a Tuesday thing it was never Monday and it will definifely not revert to being Monday next week. To start us off here's some coloring page versions of Emmett and the Exit Guard. Now that there are three of them that one can be any Exit Guard you want! You can even use forbidden colors to make new Exit Guards if you want but legally those are your OCs and I don't have to include them in lore

I said Justus would probably never show up again but I lied, bc I had to debut their last name and favorite movie! Their favorite movie is Space Jam and their full name is Justus K. Kortizone. Thank you to my real life best friend for suggesting that.

Finally to finish up the round-up here is the first ever piece of Year of Julius fanart by the wildly talented @soupy-drawz who said I could post this out of context.

[soupy-cosmos]

April Fool’s aside, I also have an actual announcement to make!!

Last week, this blog officially hit 100 followers!!

[ID: A screenshot of the blogs section of the account tab on browser mode Tumblr. The screenshot is cropped so that only the soupy-drawz blog name and its posts and followers are visible. The posts count is at 79 and followers is at 102. End ID.]

Screenshot taken on 4/3/2023

I know that’s not a huge number in the grand scheme of the internet, but it’s definitely the most followers I’ve gotten anywhere in my years of posting!!!

So

Thank you all!!

I hope you all stick around for whatever I do next! ^^

As for things you won’t have to wait for, however...

I’m planning to open asks!! I’ll most likely start with anon off, but I’ll turn it on eventually. If things go well this will be a permanent change to the blog!! Feel free to ask questions about my art, suggest tags for posts or changes to image descriptions, or just chat about fandoms or something!!

I’m also planning to do a livestream this Saturday to celebrate! Let you guys see me draw in real time! It’ll be on Picarto and I won’t have a mic on or anything but I could play some music :>

Will give more details when I’ve got things figured out fully!!
