Needed A Short Break From The Marvel-diorama, So Here’s Some Chloe And Max!

No clue why I have written “don’t touch” on my schedule. The episode aired sometime in March, the show started in Oct, ended in March, what made me put this post just this date and tell myself not to move it?

Is that has been fun. It has been toxic and annoying as well. And I know OW2 will come out tomorrow but still! Thanks to my unnamed but I promise real and existing friend for picking the selection of heroes . #overwatch #overwatchfanart #fanart #roadhog #cassidy #colecassidy #cassidyoverwatch #lucio #lúcio #lúciooverwatch #soldier76 #ana #anaamari #anaoverwatch #blizzard #blizzardentertainment (på/i Watchpoint: Gibraltar) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjP9XHbsPqg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Dreams save us. Dreams lift us up and transform us. And on my soul, I swear... until my dream of a world where dignity, honor and justice becomes the reality we all share, I'll never stop fighting. Ever."

Just a preview of how far I've come on a wallpaper I'm working on. The idea is to have his supporting cast around him, looking up in the sky but for right now, it's just Supes and the ghosts of his past

and some other Superman-stuff I've made cause I just love the guy. He's nice.

Happy Superman Day

Miraculous S5E4 - Jubilation . Well, between I saw this episode and made this drawing, like 2 more came out. I'm so behind hehe. 
Liked the episode, feels like things are finally starting to happen. 
Really liked how they could use the power of Gift as a weapon and really reminded me of the Superman-story "For the Man who has everything" so I designed this based on that cover. 
And happy with the face, the bodies, the lightning. . #miraculous #miraculousladybug #miraculoustalesofladybugandcatnoir #ladybug #marinette #marinettedupaincheng #darkowl #darkerowl #mrdamocles #gift #jubilation #zagheroes #photoshop #photoshopart #digitalart #digitalillustration . #commissionsopen (på/i Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkdV6UossGk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So, last year I drew characters on the spectrum in coordination with me telling stories how aspects of my diagnosis have affected me in periods of my life. But I just have so many meaningful stories so this year’s Autism Awareness Month, I will talk more about the characters themselves and the parts of their characteristics that I enjoy. So starting is Max Caulfield from Life is Strange, who I fell in love with from scene one. From her awkward posture to the need to put on music walking from the classroom to the bathroom, she was just a character I enjoyed in another light than literally any character I ever came across before. (Other than you, Newt. You will always be my nr. 1) As well as her interest in photography and classes matching my own interest in the subject and the history of art and so on, born from the need to capture the moment as my senses are usually just so overstimulated 24/7 leading to majority of memories either getting messy or just overwritten completely by newer memories, she really became a comfort character. So because I fell for Max so early on in the story, I felt it was fitting for her to represent the overstimulation of sound and the rest of the senses. I wanted the background to be crowded but you see glimpses of an empty hallway throughout the lyrics of the song that’s tuning it out, but the text ended up so small so it’s not as clear as I had hoped.

LAST Official Art Post of 2024! The year I promised myself no more Miraculous and then just kept on drawing it anyways. Have like a hundred ideas of stuff I want to do in 2025 as well as no plans to ever watch the show again at the same time. I just lack the pride to keep watching a kids show. This is a fun paradox, don’t remember anything related to this in psychology. Maybe the idea of you watching shows based on stuff you want and this reminds me of a childhood I felt I missed?

Watching these kids finding these friends, skills, confidence and maturity lies closer to what I wished I had as a child and what felt like the lives many around me led. I spent my days staring into the wall in the school corridor or up at the moon before going to bed wondering about my place in the world and finding questions for everything between “what’s outside the known universe” and “do I deserve to breathe the same air as my classmates?” Apparently, my parents’ tactic of constantly reminding me of my diagnosis and differences did NOT have any positive result on my mental health :D, who figured.

I’m glad that I have all that today. A back bone, a small but diverse social life, an actual close relationship with my family and pride to go outside the door. But this show just takes that and makes me regret I didn’t find it sooner.

So my relationship with this show is something I have been wondering about a lot this year and seems to be a mix of escapism and weird sense of nostalgia to small moments of fun and acceptance and also, regrets of why I didn’t just do this or that or blah.

So going into 2025, I have an updated sense of what I want to draw, not to draw, what I want my stuff to say, the overall feeling and vibe of the individual ideas and what kind of artwork I can find myself sharing with my social group. And Miraculous have found a way into that mix.

So cheers to the new year and a happy warning, if you’re still following me, you’re not getting rid of these two. Nor me, feeling sorry for myself, but I’m working on that last part.

Just a quick Happy Birthday to comic legend Steve Ditko before taking the train to… Comic Con!

Will take lots of photos that will never see the light of day.

Wish me luck that nothing gets stolen

Ouch… large crowds and noises…

Another thing I have wanting to do for ages and finally got the time was to redraw this a little bit.

Max’s and Chloe’s pose felt awkward and poorly drawn and didn’t match the vibe of the game I realised so kind tried to just draw them hanging out. Less action-game, more life-game.

Not that this is 10/10, there’s a giant gap in the picture but a step in the right direction
