Been feeling a bit down recently about how I'm "not non-binary enough". I still pass as cis and get identified as my birth gender even when I ask people not to...
The way I dress varies between hyperfeminine to slightly androgynous, but I don't want to force myself to dress masculine just so that people will accept my identity. I've settled on using they/them for ease for other people, although only my close friends respect that :/
It almost feels like I have to present in the way society expects an NB person to look to be accepted - which I know is incorrect anyway, the point of being NB is that there is no expectation!!
Probs one of the most random things I’ve decided to animate, but it seemed like fun animation practice* and I LOVE Pinkpanthress’ new music video. I've been waiting for this song to get popular since it came out last year, probs my second fav in her whole discography, but like yeah very fire very peak please watch it if you haven’t it’ll change your life (/silly)
I pretty much took the format of the music video and ran with it for the chorus, the random people doing silly things to the beat is pretty much just an excuse to include as many women in the cast that I can fit B) I couldn't fit everyone in here, but I hope this is enough !!
*This was supposed to take like a week, but I underestimated it and it’s now been a month. The most timely of animators, I am
Extras and original MV below the cut:
I made some gifs of some of the smaller moments I thought looped well! (And also cause Terra and Monty are mostly obscured by Nebula and I spent a silly amount of time on them)
Sidenote: I can't believe how much I've drawn Venus with apples. It's not a conscious effort, it just ends up happening. I'm banning myself from doing it after this because it's getting ridiculous at this point (though I really like the animation loop so I'm still happy with it 😛)
I’ve been trying to incorporate Rosie’s punishment into art for SO LONG you have no idea. It makes me feel many things (mostly anger) so know that there is at least one other art piece in my drafts themed around it. (I also have some comic scripts about Rosie's reintegration into the group, but I dunno if I'll ever draw 'em because I don't know where I want the story to go yet)
She ate this video up genuinely. The scenes with Andy jumping rope and DJ using the turntable were taken from the video. (Andy more directly, I adjusted the angle for DJ)
The frames do get a bit scuffed at times, I am awful at making consistent frames rn XP
I was also originally gonna only do art for this but I never got past drawing Rosie. The animation took over. (I appreciate how many characters in these shows have curly hair. As someone with very curly hair I'm like YEASSSSS MOREEEEEEEE 🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥)
Also PLEASEEEE make Feelings popular next chat, PLEASE its literally her best song. Gorg. I have a specific Rosie piece I'm using it as inspo for later, spoiler alert.
"Think of me, you can't pay for therapy!"
"Nothing left to bleed, you spent all your clarity!"
"wire play is so weird it's basically like ripping out organs" yes and if i couldn't feel pain or die of blood loss/infection i would also moan if someone played with my organs. next question
