"PARASITE...
LEECHING OFF MY PAIN, NEVER SATISFIED,
TIL' I'M FULLY DRAINED, YOU'RE A
PARASITE...
PLAYING WITH MY NAME JUST TO STAY ALIVE...
WHAT A POOR
PATHETIC
PARASITE!!"
PARASITE QUICKCHANGE IS BACK!!!!
I have been itching to redraw the old version for so long. The original is from December 2024 which makes it almost 1 and a half year old now. Damn... But I was quick to start disliking it. Something about the pose and anatomy felt very off. And I've been wanting to redraw it for (I'm guessing) a year. What took me so long?
The pose.
Ohhhh my god that pose😭 I don't even know why I couldn't ever draw a good pose to get started with... And I HAVE tried. Many times. I really have. I can give proof. But not one of those poses stuck with me and motivated me to finish it. Until...
Yeah I changed it quite a bit in digital. That's what I do. I can't be consistent ever😔
And the rest is history :) I tried to replicate the style I used to draw DSID QuickChange and I think I nailed it!! Definitely a high-effort and very time-consuming style to use, but it was DEFINITELY worth it.
Something else is worth mentioning however. Where did I get the motivation? The original took me a month because I procrastinated. This one was done within a week I think?? While I also had exams?? What gives???
Well. It's a special occasion. I have been reblogging my older Set It Off related artworks lately for a reason. Just to remind you of the love I have for this band and their music. From how great their songs are for jamming to and singing, to how they genuinely helped me through some tough times, whether it be stress from exams or straight up falling out with a friend. They helped me handle it all. That's why I keep drawing my persona in forms inspired by their songs/albums.
But this one... it was inspired by a very exciting moment.
guess who'S GOING TO SEE SET IT OFF LIVE!!!!!!!!!
THAT'S RIGHT MY FRIENDS AND I BOUGHT TICKETS TO THE CONCERT IN THE NEIGHBORING COUNTRY. IT'S IN JUNE. WE'RE GOING!!! TO SEE!!! SET IT OFF!!!!!!
I am absolutely at the verge of tears while writing this post and my heart is racing 2000bpm i am SO EXCITED. YOU HAVE NO IDEA
So in honor of getting tickets to the concert of my absolute favorite band, I had to draw a Big Piece :) Parasite is a song from their newest self-titled album, but it came out a long time before the album (like 2 years earlier?). It was, also, the song that made me check more of their stuff. Beyond just Wolf in sheep's clothing and I'll sleep when I'm dead (which you might also recognise even if you're not a fan of SIO). And the more songs I heard, the more I loved them.
So I am so beyond happy to be going to their concert :))) and YOU WON'T HEAR THE END OF IT🫵🫵🫵
Well I hope you enjoy this art, I still do have to prepare for exams... But I had an absolute blast working on this drawing anddddd I hope this post makes sense because I'm not entirely Normal in the head rn/lh
One last thing. Please do not make suggestive comments about the character. I know he's shirtless, but I am not comfortable receiving such comments. Besides, the character is based on me, a sex-repulsed aroace. Please respect this request.
Closeups
And some progress (and me fighting the colour contrast and blending modes..)
AYYYYYYYY SPACE MOVIE !!!!!!!!
finally I finished this piece. Boy oh boy it took HOURS and SO MUCH PATIENCE but it’s done now!!!!!! It’s prismacolour pencil btw

Adrian: WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BEAUTIFUL MATE QUESTION?!
Grace: I swear I didn’t teach him this! I promise!
Adrian: LOOK AT WHAT YOU’VE DONE!
Rocky: Watch me macarena statement. My hands are in the air as if I simply do not care. I have also learned the whip and, additionally, the nay-nay.
Adrian: I’M CALLING A DOCTOR.
Rocky: Observe the worm *hits the ground with an earth-shaking thwump and screeches along the floor*
Humans are pretty prone to mimicking noises. like even subconsciously. sometimes we even unintentionally pick up entirely different accents. and you literally can't tell me you've never meowed or woofed or chirped back at a cat/dog/bird at least once in your life (unless you are physically/audibly unable to do so).
So Grace 1000% starts picking up and mimicking Eridian noises.
One day, Rocky will be working on something, only to freeze as he hears Grace behind him suddenly exclaim in fluent Eridian "SHIT!"
Turns out Eridian swear words are usually expressed in the same decibel that humans can whistle in.
Ryland Grace who has a swear jar in his classroom, and every time a kid swears, they have to put their name in and when he asks a question and no one raises their hand to answer, he'll draw a name from the jar. It's really discouraged his kids from swearing.
Happy pride month!!! Let's go gays!!!!
This art is from last year's pride and I still love it so much (you may have noticed I changed my profile picture). I think it was around this time that I decided to identify as aroace after several years of going as unlabelled and questioning. As for my gender, I've been openly trans since 2021 and next month will be 2 years since I started HRT :DD
I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life all thanks to my transition. Transitioning didn't exactly save my life, but it sure let me have one. I'm proud of who I am now and I hope you all are too!! Happy pride month to all my sisters, brothers and gender-nonconforming siblings<33

Thanks for reblogging my ask game!
11 and 19, please!
Heyyy so. I completely forgot about this I'm so sorry😭 but fancy seeing you here Endo, I heard great things about you!!
11. Which poet do you like more: Alexander or Bonobot?
That is an interesting question and the one I never thought about... I can't say I really paid much attention to poets in the game which is a shame.
I'm currently replaying to catch all these details so I might soon form a different opinion, but I'll have to go with Bonobot for now, judging by quotes alone. His commentary on Neco definitely earns him more points because I despise this company, it's nice to hear it hehe. A little sad that he doesn't seem too fond of the cat though.
19. Favorite badge?
I have two answers. One is based on the badge's design and the other on the challenge you have to complete to earn it.
My favorite based on the challenge behind it is easily the music badge! I really enjoyed running around the Slums looking for music sheets and I absolutely LOVED hearing Morusque play from them!! He's good company :)) I'm also very glad there's a sleeping spot next to him (and.. it took me quite a while to realise that, if you lay there while he's playing a song. he'll just. play it on loop until you stop resting. and I felt rather stupid for that because I'd always do that and wonder why he wasn't stopping😭 Not the sharpest tool in the shed). But I do wish you could ask him to replay some sheets after you find them all... That would've been so cool I think.
Based on the design, I'll have to go with Neco's badge. Pretty ironic, but they don't deserve to have that flower as their symbol... The design is fire though I'll have to give them that. If only they put as much effort into doing their job as they did into making that badge
I want to try so many little hobbies. Candle making, soap making, basket weaving, wood carving, book binding, baking, weaving, I want to try them all.
I almost made a post about this the other day (unless i actually did and totally forgot) but there’s so many
I was going to make a list, but then i realized this is a good time to share this book
Making Stuff and Doing things is a whole collection of old punk DIY zines about making and doing just about anything, even things you probably never knew you wanted to do.
Book binding? In there.
Making bowls from old vinyl records? I made a whole ton for my brother’s grad party last year.
Basics of guitar? Making rubber stamps? Silk screening? Composting? Homemade beer, root beer, and wine? Soymilk?? Quill pens??? All in there.
Since it’s more punk, it doesn’t have a ton of the folksy, cottage vibes/hobbies, but it’s all about being resourceful and sustainable, which they both have in common.
If i ever need to do anything I’m not sure of, I double check this book to see if there’s anything in there. It’s one of the only books on diy I’ve ever needed.
Handbook of basic life skills for a young punk or activist, or anyone without a lot of money.Following some of the advice in this book could

I love that the PHM fandom has started assigning pilot / engineer / scientist to other, unrelated characters as if theyre genders or soemthing
This is truly starting to feel like the soldier / poet / king thing from 2020 again and I have to say I'm here for it
Anyway tag urself, I'm a pilot
gather round, Stray community
I FINALLY DID IT🙌🙌🙌🙌
I swear I tried to focus on the canon only at first, given I only just joined the fandom. But I saw way too many cool ocs and as a result, had to make my own😔 crying noises.
ANYWAYSS :33 everyone, welcome Kiran!! they're a resident of the Slums, biology nerd (wonder where they got that from/j) and NOT an Outsider (yet). I was inspired by a microscope for their design, and figured fluorescence microscopy would make for a really cool screen for a Companion. So here we are :D
More details below cut, get ready for a long one
Tee and B-12 first meeting short fic in the making stay tuned yall
At long last... I have finally done it. Time to introduce him.
I've been teasing the arrival of a second Stray OC for... well. almost since Kiran existed. And I would have done this ages ago had it not been for my damn indECISIVE MIND THAT COULDN'T STICK WITH ONE DESIGN!!!!!
But the wait is over now. Everyone, meet
Dallan/Goldstar
Hope your device's brightness is down because he about to BLIND you with his handsomeness!! /silly
Anyone remembers this post? It's finally time to make it relevant again :)
Finally updating my Meet The Artist! Zooms and more under the cut :)
