WHELP this whole long project wound up going to the sketchbook as it became something of a failed experiment!! a lot of things fucked it up not the least of which is the amount of warping the paper suffered
ha

OH WELL YOU LIVE YOU LEARN IT’S ABOUT THE JOURNEY NOT THE DESTINATION (I whispered while lying facedown on the floor and crying)
paint tests!! finally all of these unfinished sketches get put to use
experiments with my new metallic paints to see how they look and check how much they warp the paper and the conclusion is they’re basically perfect and I love them. they make the pages stick together a little but thats ok
nimbuses 4 everyone
protip: drink
why is my movie taking so long to load ugh
maybe i’ll go on an adventure and locate the blick store and finally buy the silver & gold paints that I’ve been meaning to buy for like! two weeks!! and then I can finally complete this GoT fanart that I’ve also been sitting on for two weeks and also forgot that I did a WIP scan of until I started looking into the files sitting around on my desktop
it’s only a partial scan cause the scanner’s tiny and i’m lazy
forgetting to do things: the wondrous life of eva anner
sup guys I forgot to make a world-building wednesday post yesterday so here’s one now!
Each beekeeping family has a sort of coat of arms that appears on their honey labels, which provide a quick & easy way to differentiate between the wildly different brands. My story centers on the ARIZVI family, which originated in the Rhine area of Germany and entered into the beekeeping tradition in the mid-1700s. Their crest is the lion (ari) and deer (zvi); their honey is very pale in color and has a sort of tangy sweetness.
In my comic, the image of the lion and deer are taken from the names of the founders. In real life the choice of lion and deer was actually inspired by an elaborate old menorah my grandparents owned featuring those animals. Lions are a particularly prevalent Abrahamic symbol: it’s the symbol of the tribe of Judah, which King David and Jesus are both from. No word on the particular importance of deer in Judaism but antlers are fun to draw so
I am personally offended that there was no Woolf on that “six is the national average” list of books
personally
offended
in general I am very accepting of other people’s fandom opinions but
if you dislike lin bei fong then I’m sorry
we are not allowed to be friends
ok so I have this headcanon that the letter tyrion was reading in the last episode was actually from jamie and he just made up that it was about the approaching ships or whatever because he felt that it was a more important discussion to have atm and he honestly didn’t feel up to explaining to ceresi the social and interpersonal connotations of “yolo” and why they had to have a talk with their dingus brother about certain words that are not ok to use unironically
“mother of dragons” huh
hahahahaha
hahahahahahahahah oh wow
what are you like twenty
world-building wednesday!!!
the finalized designs of the beekeeper outfit, and two bee-woman designs for a short biblical era story that takes place at the beginning of the comic.
oh hey I almost forgot to post these! lin bei fong sketches from last friday
you guys you guys I am so obsessed with the way lin metalbends because her fighting moves are all very AIRBENDING STYLE and I have all these headcanons about how she and toph had a very close but nevertheless difficult relationship (toph was a single mother you will never dissuade me otherwise) and on occasion they would get into fights and lin would run off to aang and katara’s place to sulk and they’d be like IT’S OK YOU KNOW TOPH IS A VERY STUBBORN PERSON AND SO ARE YOU SO ITS ONLY NATURAL YOU’D GET INTO FIGHTS I MEAN EVEN WE HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING ALONG WITH TOPH SOMETIMES BUT THAT’S JUST HOW IT WAS AND YOU AND YOUR MOTHER WILL ALWAYS HAVE UPS AND DOWNS BUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP IS STRONG ENOUGH TO WEATHER ANYTHING and wow this turned into a pile of feelings fast but ok the point is that lin learned airbending style from aang and applied it to her metalbending that’s what I was trying to say yeah
“I didn’t think it would be so…messy.”
