I'm glad my post is making people feel more open to trying artfight but i still feel like people overthink artfight in general, like i suppose i'm not exempt from it since i also worry about making my attacks perfectly polished and perfectly accurate to the design. but it IS just glorified art trading. here's some pointers and what it's like if you wanna try but are nervous: it's ok to only do revenges (drawings in retaliation to an attack you got) if you're too shy to attack first, but there's no guarantee people WILL be attacking you first constantly so keep that in mind and set your expectations at a reasonable level. Nobody on there is expecting perfection, just bare minimum effort, so don't half-ass it everytime and people will still appreciate what you can give. The fancy stuff people do like making borders for their attack icons and fully decked out bios and refs are optional, not mandatory. its fine to draw attacks for rando strangers if you like their oc, just focus on drawing whatever catches your eye thats the fun part of it for me. If you wanna practice do what I did my first year and attack/revenge just your friends to start.
more creatures :3 this time in pencil! i like making them in oil pastel but i can really add little details in pencil which i enjoy! hope u like them <3

Designs for a fic I'm planning :D I finally made a blog for it! @to-headmare-twilight :]
when is a deer no longer a deer?
When can it truly be said that you are no longer really here?
Is it when the last breath leaves your lungs and hangs in the morning air in a silver cloud that turns to frost on your muzzle?
Is it when your eyes have stared unblinking for so long that they no longer reflect the sky you once danced under?
Is it when the proud branches of your antlers have been gnawed back to buds by the mice who once wove through the leaf litter beneath your hooves?
Is it when the first hole is torn in your hide by winter-hungry jaws and the crows descend and settle on the frozen earth to wait their turn?
Is it when the boundaries of your body begin to soften and blur in the melting snow as the birds tug free your hair to line their nests?
Is it when your heart is pulled from its home in your chest and gulped down a grateful gullet to find its new place within the body of another?
Is it when the last nourishing fragment of your flesh has been swallowed and your empty ribcage arches against the sky like the roof of a cathedral?
Is it when the last scrap of your hide is taken from your bones, and they lie gleaming and polished, bleaching in the summer sun?
Is it when a coyote pup carries the last of your vertebrae from the place where you lay and frolicks away in the moonlight, leaving nothing but the memory of your weight upon the grass?
Is it when the descendants of the generations of insects who hatched and writhed and thrived in the haven of your corpse have forgotten that your body was the only home their ancestors ever knew?
Is it when the earth where you once lay, made rich by your blood, springs lush with blooms and leaves and sprouts that live and die and live again?
Is it when the last creature that fed upon your body closes its eyes for the last time, and gives itself back to the earth that brought it life?
Is it when I am finally able to look at your place upon the ground without calling to mind the vision of your body?
When could it ever truly be said that you are no longer really here?

One thing I've been doing for Girl Frame (my mechspoitation/lesbian mech pilot ttrpg) is basically trying to make rules for the characters that get in their way more than they help them
I've been reading Jay Dragon's Expressionist Manifesto, which talks about tension between what the player might want to do and the rules of the game. Rules not so much as an aid but as a restriction that has to be fought against or worked around to achieve your player goals
That led me to the special play for the Mockingbird Girl Playbook:
Congrats to autistic trans girls for making this my most noted post ever lmao

new deco27 song is good
happy birthday to the one true april fool
oh also heres a labelled version. i wanted to reference more pre-SV songs but i found a lot of the ones i could remember off the top of my head just used tetos basic utau design (rip)
you can now buy my texture overlays!! ! These are textures I use in my own work, and the listing includes a detailed instruction on how to use them! :) So if you've ever wondered how I get that grainy look, HERE'S THE ANSWER HEHE.
Here's the link!
uhhhh hi i love them
defying the odds with mama
Can I talk about Adachi Rei and how fucking cool she is can I do that can I please please PLEASE talk about how cool she is pretty please?
SHE'S A FUCKING XYLOPHONE SHE'S A XYLOPHONE SAMPLE THAT WAS EDITED IN FUCKING AUDACITY TO MIMIC HUMAN SPEECH (and another program i think but I can't remember right now and I don't want to just reword the vocaloid wiki page). SHE'S A FUCKING XYLOPHONE AND SHE SOUNDS LIKE THIS
She also has a text to speech bank now??? Also her creator is making a fucking robot for her. And like she isn't even the first Utau that's made out of a sample that isn't made from a human!
Doa Tobiraka is a voice bank I admittedly know significantly less about but she IS made using a sample of a door closing and I love her design a lot so I wanted to mention her
That's your Mimi vocal synth ramble for the day
Way too funny not to share

The Creator's Guide to Comics Devices is OPEN!!! comicsdevices.com
An online library of visual-narrative devices that are used in the medium of comics and other sequential art.
Happy Halloween! I'm really excited to be finally launching* what is maybe one of my most ambitious, largest work yet. This online library is the next phase of a research project that began in May 2020, when I first mused on how comics as a field doesn't have a resource that catalogues devices used in the medium. Like, theatre has devices, so does literature, and film! So why shouldn't comics? I always had an interest in comics studies and analysis. I love reading, making and thinking comics. However most of my knowledge was intuitive - I learned comics from osmosis and experience. This is true for many of my peers. Speaking about comics as a creator is hard, because we don't have a robust system of language. When we had to speak, many of us tend to reach for the language developed for film by film practitioners. If there is language specific to comics, it's either scattered in multiple blogs or hidden away in academic journals. The Comics Devices library is meant to aggregate everything and everybody into a single hub! After exploring some multiple resources, alongside some original, independent research, here is the first edition! * The Comics Devices project is still a work-in-progress! It's not final, nor will it ever be. This is why I am seeking contributors to help build this library. Translations, comics examples, etc. There is a lot of work to do! If you are interested, reply to this post or submit an expression of interest on this page. Have fun everyone!! (Now time for me to melt x_x)
