It Is Waddle Wednesday, My Dudes.

I created some concept art for a ENA-like animation series I'm writing the script for. These are two of the characters:

The kanji in Riku's pupils read "kami" (left) and "nari" (right), which, when put together, read "kaminari" the japanese word for thunder.

I'll explain the whole "World" thing another time.

SAVING THIS CUZ I PRONABLY MIGHT NEED IT

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

-_-

*breaks down door*

I JUST HAD THE MOST AWESOME CHARACTER DESIGN IDEA EVER AND I WILL DRAW IT AS SOON AS I CAN

BIBLICALLY ACCURATE ANGEL CHARACTER

BUT THEIR HALO

IS A NEON TUBE LIGHT

I WILL DRAW THIS AS SOON AS I HUMANLY CAN

Me returning to Tumblr after heck knows how long probably to just disappear instantly:

These combos are interesting...

Click on it twice. These are your two super powers.

Things heating up in the cranberry fandom

And they look out so hard for the well being of the spiders AND the dolphins

I JUST REALIZED I DREW ONE OF HIS HANDS THE WRONG WAY FRICK--

I am not ok right now

I JUST HAD THE MOST AWESOME CHARACTER DESIGN IDEA EVER AND I WILL DRAW IT AS SOON AS I CAN

BIBLICALLY ACCURATE ANGEL CHARACTER

BUT THEIR HALO

I WOULD LIKE TO RE-EMPHASIZE:

Land plants thriving in an underwater environment

Any modern fantasy location (bonus points if liminal spacey)

Living man-made buildings, especially ones that have been abandoned

Pretty much any otherwise normal location but DIFFERENT COLOR SCHEME

peak fantasy environment designs:

floaty islands

glowing mushrooms

bigger versions of normal animals

animalistic dragons

deep, sentient forests

sky/space whales

I need to get back to working on my neocities page. It's harder to do when you don't know all the lingo.

neocities guide - why you should build your own html website

do you miss the charm of the 90s/00s web where sites had actual personality instead of the same minimalistic theme? are you feeling drained by social media and the constant corporate monopoly of your data and time? do you want to be excited about the internet again? try neocities!!

what is neocities?

neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."

why should I make my own website?

web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!! building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.

what would I even put on a website?

the best part about making your own site is that you can do literally whatever the hell you want! focus on a specific subject or make it a wild collection of all your interests. share your art! make a shrine for one of your interests! post a picture of every bird you see when you step outside! make a collection of your favorite blinkies! the world is your oyster !! here are some cool example sites to inspire you: recently updated neocities sites | it can be fun to just look through these and browse people's content! space bar | local interstellar dive bar creature feature | halloween & monsters big gulp supreme peanutbuttaz | personal site dragodiluna linwood | personal site patho grove | personal site
