This is one of the most powerful images I have ever seen, and I will reblog it every single time because every single time it brings tears to my eyes.

Ok so I’m pretty sure everyone probably already knows that Jayce and Viktor have the same eye colors and that they have different undertones.

And I just- you don’t understand how much it gets to me that their undertones mirror each other so beautifully.

We have Jayce, who was shunned from his absurd idea of harnessing magic, and who had no one to believe in him after the explosion. Not Caitlyn, and not even his mother. We don’t see that he had any friends so we can assume that those two people, as well as the Caitlyn’s mother and father, were literally the only people he interacted with/had companionship with. (I’m sure the creators could have easily shown Jayce having friends that decided to cut ties with him after the explosion. Either by Jayce recognizing them in the council room, his friends giving him disapproval, or anything really. But they chose not to show his social life. So I’m inclined to believe that Jayce really only had a very small circle of people that consisted of a kid and that kids parents, and his mother. Heimerdigger as well because why not).

He has been shown to have a naive heart, he’s been shown to have a tendency to be happy and go with what everyone else is doing. Those traits are associated with happy go-lucky personalities. But Jayce is different. One of his first on present scenes is him almost committing suicide for crying out-loud. He doesn’t have the inner strength to persevere/follow through his dreams without the help/guidance of someone else. Yes, he learned how to be happy with everyone else and perfect the, “Golden Boy” persona, but there’s a reason why he made friends with Viktor, the outcast in Piltover’s society. (There’s a point to all this I swear. But now onto his eye color)

His eyes are a notable Yellow. I have no clue how to check but I’m inclined to think it leans more towards a topaz color. And there’s definitely a green undertone in his eyes.

Now, for a guy who’s whole wardrobe attire consists of reds, golds, browns, and whites you would think that his eye color would match this obvious theme going on. But it doesn’t. Or at the very least, Jayce would rather keep the Piltover colors constantly on him instead of what would heighten his features. Like how Mel does in her attire.

The only time he used clothing that matched his eyes was when he wore his green outfit. Which is honestly probably the reason why this is consensually the best outfit he’s ever worn. (I would like to credit @jaycetalisdaily for these images)

Now let’s look at Viktor. We have this man, who was raised with a prejudice upbringing, coupled with a debilitating illness, was on a Scooby Doo chase and run with death, and was stuck as an assistant who couldn’t do anything with his intelligence in a way he wanted/deserved respect for. He, quite frankly, should have held major animosity in his heart, (not saying he doesn’t, but they make it obvious Viktor holds more self hatred than the unfair hand he was delt with with Piltover’s Autocracy rule is that the right word?) yet he doesn’t. He only wants to invent contraptions that could bring humankind prosperity.

Despite what life has thrown at him, he persevered in his pursuit of knowledge and understanding of the world. He survived time and time again despite his illness, and despite his standing in society. In contrast to Jayce, Viktor has the unyielding willpower to follow through his convictions all by himself.

His eyes are also a notable Yellow. But they are so much warmer when compared to Jayce’s. There’s red and orange blending in with the yellow.

Now, Viktor has sparse clothing outfits. He has his academy attire throughout S1 and his slutty blanket outfit/jesus attire in S2. Which objectively makes sense when you think about it. Viktor’s from Zaun and he doesn’t care to keep up social appearances like Jayce does. Or he doesn’t have a deep ingrained sense of needing to dress appropriately for society. (Not to mention, he uh, probably didn’t have the money to buy clothing at first). He comes from an upbringing of blunt and honest people who couldn’t care less of politics and social standing. (Liars and scumbags became abundant from Silco’s rule imo. Vander was a trusted leader of the Undercity and had a strong community. Silco ruled under an iron fist and twisted deals to get into power.)

When it comes to character design, you typically want the design to represent just what kind of character you’re portraying. (Where they come from, their personality, their goals, their drive, and so on and so forth). Jayce has it all over his design throughout the show. With his wardrobe changes and growth as a person. Viktor, while he does go through significant changes as a person, I’m talking about the coloring design choices. His clothes share an almost exact color pallet with Jayce. So how tf did the creators give Viktor an undeniable darker/cooler color pallets???

Through the setting.

Almost consistently, we have only seen Viktor in places with shadow, low lighting, and darker places. (Key word almost because yeah I know there’s been times he was in warmer lighting but come on, I feel like there’s a reason Viktor is mostly seen in darker atmospheres than Jayce. And yeah, there was a reason why the Hexcore, Viktor’s personal creation, was purple and afterwards Viktor’s entire body was purple.)

Suffice to say, they have distinct color pallets in the show.

Now onto the point of all this, the point of singling out the minute facts of Jayce’s and Viktor’s designs, the opposing personality traits of each other, and the subsequent complimenting of each others designs,

Their eyes.

“The eyes are the windows to the souls”

We’ve all heard that saying before, and what if there’s truth to that?

What if I told you that these two men, who far surpassed their peers and found themselves alone, where one was an outcast because of his body and the other because of his mind, found their equal and compliment to complete one another.

Jayce found his other half that matched the cooler tones of his eyes.

Viktor found his other half that matched the warmer tones of his eyes.

What if I told you I spent 3 goddamn hours on this essay because I couldn’t stop thinking about their eye colors after someone pointed out that they have different undertones.

The lineart bleeds a bit in a few places because I was using a lineart coloring auto action on CSP and didn't want to clean all of it up.

Iskierka in the wild

@travellingdragon​ and I took Iskierka on a trip to Drachenfels (”dragons rock”) and its castle ruin.

Here are some of the highlights of this trip:

And as a bonus: Iskierka wearing a gold coin as a hat.

"Die for me"? No, you misheard: I said die with me. Let us perish together so we may never be forced to endure life alone. Mix our ashes together so that, even if we are scattered, we can never be separated.

So in my household we love to hate on the upcoming Nolan Odyssey, not because of any of the recent stuff like the casting decisions, no, the vitriol predates that. My partner just hates Nolan (I like a few of his films but I find the hate entertaining to indulge) and loves mythology and has been skeptical to outright loathing of this film from the start.

Well, we were explaining to a friend who was unfamiliar with the Odyssey why my partner found Matt Damon such a baffling choice for Odysseus, one reason being like… look at him. That is not a twisty turny man. That’s just some dude trying to get home, probably to watch the Red Sox game.

But then our friend asked, who DOES have a face in Hollywood that fits what we would prefer? Who just LOOKS like a twisty turny man?

I was stumped for a moment, but my friends, now I have it.

Daniel Ings - also known as Lyonel Baratheon in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and Freddy in The Gentlemen

THAT man has a twisty turny face, unlike Matt Damon. He looks like he’s got three schemes backing up the one he’s currently working on and there’s no guarantee any of them will work. He also can pull off pathos even while you feel like you can’t trust him as far as you can throw him.

That said, it was a mistake to realize this because now I would absolutely KILL for a take on the Trojan Cycle with him as Odysseus omg

If the EPIC: The Musical movie was going to be live action instead of animated that guy could have played Odysseus in that, lmao.
