Forgot I have a tumblr uhoh. I don't think I'll ever finish this old Batman Returns au sheith, but it's still kinda cute. Keith's missing his cat ears oop
I’m sorry, but Voltron Legendary Defenders has been my special interest for years and I can’t not say something.
This makes me so mad because everyone is seriously misunderstanding what Voltron is. Voltron, the mech, isn’t a being itself. Its not a character. It’s what happens when five smaller mechs and five people piloting them come together. Voltron isn’t its own being so it doesn’t have a personality, but the 5 lions that make up Voltron? They have tons of personality, amazing designs, and are their own characters in the show. They have more personality than any other mechs I’ve seen, though granted I haven’t seen many. Not to mention being animal based instead of people based for their designs, that’s really cool and I haven’t seen anything else like it (tho I don’t watch a lot of mech anime). There’s plenty of fanart and talk about the lions because they’re cool, interesting characters, but of course no one makes as big a fuss about Voltron because it’s not a character in the show.
Also, Voltron isn’t even a mech anime, so it’s unfair to hold it to the same standards. It was kind of based off of part of a mech anime because the original Voltron was partly one, but Voltron Legendary Defender isn’t an anime. It’s not Japanese for one, but doesn’t follow the format or tropes of anime either. It’s American animation with a mech in it, so don’t expect an anime out of it and don’t hold it to completely irrelevant standards.
It’s ok to not like the show, and to not like it because you were expecting something else, but when your criticisms don’t even make sense then shut the hell up. It’s ok to have opinions, but do your research before you bash something because now you look stupid. Voltron’s not a character in the show, it’s an object. I wouldn’t get too hyped about a magic staff or a gun in a show so I’m not going to get that hyped about Voltron (though there should be more art, I get it’s incredibly hard to draw and personally I’d rather draw the lions anyways). But the red lions switching of pilots and personalities? Hilarious. Keith’s whole struggle with the black lion? Great for both their characters development. The black lion holding onto Shiro’s soul/ghost for like 4 seasons because there might have been a chance to bring him back? Incredible loyalty and care almost unbefitting a robot. And these are just the major story beat moments I could remember off the top of my head, there are so many more. Oh? You want fanart? How about such fandom classics as the pride flag one (get it, cause there lions), or what about literally anything ikimaru has done I know they’ve drawn the lions before and they were adorable.
Criticisms are fine, I’ll be the first to admit that VLD isn’t perfect, but when your criticisms aren’t even applicable to the thing you’re criticizing it shows how little you care or cared to learn.
It's also just kind of unfair to compare modern Voltron to any mainstream Japanese fandom where there are VASTLY more fanworks from artists all over the world so of course you can find like a thousand pictures of the weird drill mech, Gurren Lagann. Voltron was popular but it wasn't Gundam or EVA popular. We're talking different scales here.
But that being said people very much drew the lions.
sadly the fic, WHICH IS RLY GOOD, never got posted [long story, not mine to tell ;u;] but this was a telepath!keith/blind!shiro AU. basically keith is a captured BoM, and is sent to the arena in chains to be executed by a beast, but then a blind galra is thrown in to the arena was well, with a weapon. keith is able to convince him they can work together and using his telepathic link, shiro is able to defeat the beast.
afterward, they are thrown together more often in the arena and over time keith learns shiro is actually a human who has been experimented on and altered heavily. he also ends up teaching him about galra culture and how to navigate some of the wierd shit galra go thru [since shiro is experiencing a lot of galra instincts lol].
meanwhile the BoM are working on freeing keith, but keith will not leave without shiro :')
so in this scene, we have keith tracing coordinates on shiro's back, in hopes that he will be able to use them to escape. i do hope viper posts this fic one day but if not, just know it was rly good and liek the perfect slowburn.
extras under the cut!
so as i keep saying this was a rly good fic. i had like 5 diff scenes i rly wanted to draw but i realized i was NOT going to be able to fit any of them into only 3 pages lol… that didn't stop me from TRYING more than once tho…
attempt #1, 3 pics:
this scene is them bathing [PLATONICALLY] after a round in the arena. keith is lamenting about shiro geting hurt due to keith's reckless fighitng style leaking into shiro thru the mind meld, and thinks about how shiro still moves like he has his human body too, which shiro picks up on thanks to the mind link [which is something of a habit at this point lol]. shiro is angsting about the fact he actually dosen't know the extent of what has been done to him thanks to the injury that blinded him, and after asking to see how he looked as a human, keith ends up reassuring him that he's still a cutie lol.
the page with the dialogue only is when i realized there was no way i was fitting that scene into 3 pages lol.
attempt #2:
this scene is basically near the start to the fic. keith is brought in to the arena and chained to a pylon. he hears a bunch of rly loud monster noises and pounding at the door across the arena and is like, wow i am actually fucked 8D then shiro is brought in and thrown to the ground, along with a weapon. keith watches him try to feel around for the weapon and realizes he's blind, then calls out to him. shiro immediately goes into attack mode but keith is able to convince him that they can be allies, and briefly explains he's a telepath before melding their minds so that shiro can see through his eyes, and after a bit of clumsiness they are able to beat the beast this way :D
my designs for the boys. i have unclothed versions too that show off all their markings and scars but i feel like that would get the post flagged so these will have to do lol. i did post them on twitter tho, if you wanna bother looking there. also yes, this design is rly similar to the other contribution i did for this zine, which is because i rly like the idea of keith having these specific markings LOL. this is p much my official go to glara!keith design.
just two lil chibi guys
i actually finished this with shading, but for the life of me cannot find it, so old phone pic it is. this is post-fic, after shiro joins the bom. [so uh not so shocking spoiler, they both survive and escape lol]
Another remake of a piece I made back in 2017 (here's the link to the original:)
Of finding, and losing. And finding again.
Or
“You make me a believer”
I listened to “Believer” by Imagine Dragons while doodling and wel
I really like making these re-draw, because I can 1) revisit lots of beloved concepts and ideas and 2) see how I improved since drawing something for the first time.
Hey sheith fam! Since many of us have been considering moving to Tumblr following the Elon Musk debacle, I figured I'd make things easier by compiling a list of sheithers' blogs to check out!
I did my best to only add those who are still active and still making sheith content. I've also tried to group the blogs to make it easier to go through (even those with one or two fics/art go under authors/artists provided they engage with other sheith content)
I do apologize for tagging, but tumblr does not give recurring notifications for tagged posts, so hopefully it does not bother you guys too much.
If I have missed you and you would like to be tagged, would like to not be tagged, or would like to be shifted to a different category, please let me know. And feel free to promote your sheith content in the reblogs and replies
(Edit: Authors, other creators, and other sheithers are now in a reblog bc tumblr won't let me tag that many people in 1 post)
