King T’Challa . Haven’t thought mush about seeing Wakanda Forever but if I do, I have the feeling it’s going to be good. Seems a lot of focus on greif and cultures and think a movie that might focus more on the rivalry of nations instead of chasing ”another glowing MacGuffin” could be good and say something important . Was also impossible to find photos that showed the details on the legs and saw right before uploading that it was wrong so tried to fix it #blackpanther #tchalla #blackpantherfanart #fanart #photoshop #photoshopart #digitalart #digitalillustration #marvel #marvelstudios #mcu #chadwickboseman https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck05APnMkmm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
When I wrote on my last Miraculous that I had a clearer goal in what I wanted in my art, this was not it BUT sometimes I just have an image in my head and can’t stop thinking about it and needed to get it out of my system
Might do a matching Chat Noir. Depends on the feedback
The official sequel to that one post. It got very popular and I thought I would share the "answer" I found to my original "question".
The original comic is about growing up aneurotypical (specifically I have autism and ADHD among other things, e.g. being LGBT) in a world not made for that, and my profound feelings of alienation as a result.
Whether you share those specific problems or not, I am sincerely happy if it resonated with you and humbled that it meant something to so many people.
A popular addition to the post was "you will find your people". I think it is absolutely true that you can and will find people willing to support you and love you for who you are - I have, and their support made much of my growth possible (as well as therapy). I am grateful to the artist that made that addition and think it is important.
But I wanted to make this because to me, it was important to learn the message that you are allowed to exist as yourself, even if you were to never find a single other person who accepts you. You do not need the validation of others. Even if you feel like you were somehow made wrong, or will never fit in with anyone else, you have the right to exist.
Live authentically for yourself, and not for others. Pursue your passions.
It is intentional that the person in the comic never fully regains their color. I will never be the untraumatized child I once was. But that doesn't mean life is not worth living.
I love you, and I hope you try to live as you are.
Original text were too long for Instagram but it was about how Fantastic Beasts handle representation of cultures and sexualities and how much I love Newt and his autism. A lot of people have complained about the use of Asien stereotypes or how they have handled (or not handled) Dumbledore and Grindelwald’s relationship. The conclusion was that I still wanted to see a character on the spectrum I actually can relate too but I don’t want the access to my representation to keep hurting the ones of others. So yeah, hope they know what they’re doing and maybe we all can win. I have doubt about it but one can only dream. . #newtscamander #fantasticbeasts #wizardingworld #autismawareness #eddieredmayne #photoshop #photoshopart #digitalart #digitalillustration #fanart (på/i The Wizarding World of Harry Potter) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClrTslTsoyy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
So. Earlier this year we lost James Earl Jones who in his long career was probably most known as the voice of Mufasa as well as Darth Vader.
As I was busy with my Marvel 85 Anniversary, I took a day and stressed out a tribute to him as well as to Sebastian Shaw and David Prowse but now with actual time on my hand, I wanted to draw my favourite Vader-scene and what he gave to this character.
My favourite scene is the small hallway scene from Ep. 6 where Luke retreats to Vader. It’s the same character from the previous films, the same suit, same voice and all but none of that fear that came along. It’s no longer the monster slaughtering in hunt of the Death Star-plans, choking left and right over the smallest errors. It’s not the man who cut the hand of his own son in rage. It’s a father talking to his son.
It’s Anakin Skywalker, a master engineer admiring his son’s work on his lightsaber. It’s Anakin warning Luke of the dark side. Same mask, same voice, now portrayed as a slave more than a fist. It’s Anakin thinking back on Obi-Wan and the mistakes of his life and the prison he put himself in.
It’s Anakin saying it’s too late, son.
Well, a lot is of course the passivity of David Prowse’s performance and Mark Hamill leading the conversation but James Earl Jones gave the final push to make Vader more man than machine in his final hour of privacy, before the two entered the Death Star.
This moment between the two is important to strengthen Luke to yell out to his father in pain, to Vader to finally turn after all this time and for them to get a moment to say goodbye and Luke to attend his father’s funeral in the midst of a celebrating galaxy. Without this, Luke would probably still have hope, but now he has evidence of the light side in him.
Or I’m just overthinking. But damn, James Earl Jones was brilliant as Darth Vader and the AI hasn't been close to replicating what he gave to this character.
