I swear, someday I'll get back to drawing when life stops gut-punching me to the ground while my brain calls me bad names 🥲

[bluetortoist]

Okay!

I think now is time I get back to one of my bigger projects now. I REALLY want to try and create another animatic now and get back to Mavis' "Your Idol". I might burn myself out again doing it, but it'll be worth it 😤

A little more than a month later.....

I'm so so sorry everybody.

I think...this is my mind and body telling me to take a step back from Batman for a bit. I haven't been making any progress in my Batman stuff and I just haven't been having much of a drive for it atm. This doesn't mean that I'm completely done with the series and my OC's oh nonono I love them too dearly for that.

But I am finding myself getting drawn back into old interests and am trying to exercise my brain with different art exercises. So I guess I will be posting a bit more different stuff right now and I will still post more Batman stuff when I start to feeling like it again.

If any of that makes sense. I feel like im just rambling now, but Thank you so much for being patient with me as always. 💙🫂

Who can't wait for this dreadful, shitty year to be over~!

[bluetortoist]

The Batman (2004) Mavis absolutely TRAUMATIZING Scarface when they first met!

It all happened one night when Penguin and Wesker teamed up briefly or something and were discussing their new plan. Well, Mavis is looking at Scarface and is absolutely confused and curious about how this weird little block of wood is talking and moving as it does. Why this spectacled little man is so submissive to it. She takes a keen to him immediately, bobbing and turning her head, much to Scarface's chagrin....

UNTIL SHE DECIDES YANK HIM RIGHT OFF WESKER. She even goes so far as to fly up on a high platform so she can examine him with no problems. Mavis starts banging and pulling and scratching Scarface everywhere trying to figure out what makes him talk, nearly ripping some of his limbs off 💀💀💀

Meanwhile, Wesker is freaking out and panicking for Scarface (who in his head, is als screaming for dear life like he was in a horror movie). Mavis wouldn't finally let him go once Penguin ordered her to come back down and "give him his doll back" (after not-so subtly laughing at the whole thing). Once she did, never once has Scarface been seen so damn SHOOKED. 😂

And now ever since, Scarface makes Wesker keep his distance around Mavis and/or Penguin to, and I quote:

"YOU KEEP WHATEVER THAT THING AWAY FROM ME, YA HEAR ME, BIRD BRAIN!?!?"

((I'm still alive, don't worry, but I wanted to still share some batman thoughts with y'all~ also because ive been missing 2004 Batman and wanna do more stuff with that version of Penguin and Mavis 🥺))

Hey guys! So Update...

So a bit of good news. I think I'm kinda out of my funk enough that I will be able to get back to drawing again

However, said drawings are going to be commissions for some close friends of mine irl. I'm on a bit of a time limit as well, so they will need my attention. So unfortunately, some of my Batman stuff will be put on hold for a bit longer.

But I will still be here to talk, answer stuff and be silly with all you lovely peeps! Thank you so much again for being patient with me and indulging me and my silly blorbos. 💙 🥺

And one more thing...

[bluetortoist]

It's been feelin rough buddies...

[bluetortoist]

Hello again! I've a question for Penguin or do you prefer Mr. Cobblepot? I don't know, the memory escapes me at the moment.

What are your three favourite species of birds? I assume you would choose at least one species of penguin, maybe emperor or gentoo or perhaps even a rockhopper?

But hat would the other two be?

Mine favorite three are:

Great Eared Nightjar

Cassowary

Costas's hummingbird

I like the first because it looks almost like a dragon, which I WA obsessed with when I was little. The second because it looks so much like a living dinosaur! And the third is a pretty yet tough little dessert dweller from the South western U.S. to the North western Mexico area that I couldn't help but find myself charmed by.

"Aaah, truly some fine species you have chosen. All three of them are so unique and majestic in their own right. So many vast and wonderful species, for me, it would be nigh impossible to choose one favorite over the other."

"...Though they can't fly, they are one of the best swimmers among all aviaries. They can dive to over 1800 feet. To escape predators, they release air from their feathers to reduce drag underwater and make them quickly swim at around 22 mph. They are also one of the most devoted parents when it comes to raising their young. Even when it is not their own, or if something happens to one parent, they will come in and adopt the egg and help raise it as their own."

"...Like other owls, they have specialized soft edges to their wings so they can fly and swoop down for their prey in silence. Pair that up with their acute sense of hearing, and they are truly one of the most efficient hunters."

"...Male Shrikes tend to capture and impale their prey onto thorned plants or any spiked area. Because of this, they have also been given the name "Butcherbirds". They will even go so far as mimicking their prey to lure them in to capture them. How morbidly enchanting."

.

((I truly think other than obviously penguins, he's a lover of all kinds of birds and doesnt have a true "favorite". So it was kind of hard picking out what he'd be particularly fond of. I kind of went with my gut lol. Thank you for the ask! I liked this one and looking up the facts for them.))

Reblog if it's OK for other artists to draw your OCs

[bluetortoist]

I was recently thinking about Oswald and Mavis getting older, Oswald getting more wear and frail of age, but still going strong and in business and Mavis looking bigger, but showing little aging due to her species long lifespans. Something sort of somber to think upon....

I like to think that when his time comes, Oswald would consider Mavis his heir. Over time, Mavis will eventually reach her max size her species would get to (7 ft.) and will eventually, "leave the nest" for other pursuits. Oswald, of course, wouldnt take it too well and would behave rather selfishly tbh, but I think he would eventually come around. Plus it do was doesnt mean she'll never keep in contact with him; She would still pop in sometimes, especially if Oswald needs some additional help from her.

[bluetortoist]

Inspiration struck...

Let's try this again! 😤

[bluetortoist]

I've been struggling to draw more lately, but I've always wanted to do some pose studies for Eleanor and get better at drawing different body types like hers since she's also plus sized. So I've managed to sketch up a few poses for my "Dear Alice"~ 🥺💛

I wonder if Jervis is going "awooga" somewhere lmao

[bluetortoist]

Doris l have a dodo plush for you

((Another friend added to Doris' plethora of stuffed friends~))

And don't worry, Mavis appreciates it. A lot of Mavis's toys end up unintentionally ripped up from her sharp claws. Ozzie had to fix it for her later.))
