Pose ref is this

Okay you asked for this…

2016 vs 2022, it’s funny what 6 years, pose referencing and a crap ton of drawing can accomplish

would anyone reblog/reply to this and show off ur art improvement 🥺🥺🥺

Consider this payback, for all the joy and awe you’ve brought into this world, you prick (affectionate)

Did i impulsively spend weeks on rendering after getting hooked on a Batfam fic? Yes.... Yes I did.

for real though guys, the author of this fic is an absolute angel. So... @lulurythmea: Happy Birthday.... thanks for making me cry and go feral.... can't wait to see what the hell you do next you crazy son of a bitch ;)

the fic in question is Across the Sands on Ao3, go check it out if you also want to go feral and get some of that sweet sweet hurt comfort!

I think in large part that’s why I love creating and seeing new stories, because the power of characters and fiction as a whole is that it helps you make sense of yourself and the world.

This character is who I was back then, but more. This character is still learning to love themselves and puts others first way too often, this character is scared shitless and just wants to be happy, this character is the embodiment of how much my negative coping mechanisms can and have destroyed me, and this character is someone who really just needs a hug.

To me at least it’s about taking out all the little pieces of yourself and making them their own person, someone you can see and want to help, and then giving them the hug and the friends they need to heal and as a result, maybe heal yourself too.

I like to include bits of myself in a lot of characters, like, this one also thinks purple is the best color (because it is!), this one can't handle anything remotely spicy, this one hates an adrenaline rush, this one loves plums, etc.

But then there's always one character in the lot where I'm like, "sorry buddy, you're getting the brunt of my worst flaws this time" and it's awful but fantastic because I get to process and idealize those flaws without just staring at myself.

Anyway I think writing yourself into your characters is normal and healthy, even. Thanks for coming to my Sleepy Talk.

I present to you some more meme image redraws because what's the point of OC's if not to have some fun with them.

I made something

As much as I would love to say something like “kudos are just as good” or “Count your blessings, every kudos is someone who loves and appreciates your work” I feel this more than I could ever preach that.

Srsly, comment on your favourite fics, let the author know that someone sees their hard work and appreciates it.

Let them know their work made you feel something, anything at all.

Don’t be silent, or your favourite authors will be.
