whatās that stage in your artistic journey called where every stroke feels painfully wrong but in the end the drawing looks nice actually?
[OC] heās so very tiredā¦
āIf you are not to award me love, then I will indulge in rage. And mine is infinite! ā
Frankenstein (2025), Guillermo del Toro
straight up ādrawingā it. and by āitā well haha. lets just say my Nothing
There is an absolute yawning chasm between "glorifying" something and simply refusing to demonize it.
This blog is NOT a safe space for blorbos and OCs. They WILL be whumped.
"youve already written that trope" yesss. i like it a lots. i will be writing it again. 1000 stories of the same trope over and over again for ten million years
āyouve already drawn that characterā yesss. i like them a lots. i will be drawing them again. 1000 drawings of the same character over and over again for ten million years
Not people saying āFandom has always been like thisā in that vent post I made. No. It hasnāt always been like this. Fandom has NEVER been like this until recently and if you were in fandom pre-tumblr purge, pre-twitter, pre-netflix boom, pre-tiktokā¦.then you would fucking know it was nothing like this.
We still had the drive to create. We still sold prints and charms and made zinesā¦but it was never like this.
The introduction of streaming, binge shows that drop all at once, tiktok and vine RIP i still love u vine but you were the beginning of a particularly ugly era) creating this bite sized, quick paced ācontentā era of creation and it bled out into fucking everything else.
Fandoms didnāt die down when the show ended or the season was over. You didnāt mass unfollow artist, writers or moots just because they changed fandoms. There wasnāt this need to please the algorithm in order for your posts to get seen by people and enjoyed.
Fandoms used to last YEARS. Star Trek is literally the oldest running fandom out there and you got people in there that could care less about the new stuff and still have been happily prancing through their fucking fifty year old fandom today. Hell, even SPN after all itās fuckups and shitshows has a dedicated fanbase STILL creating tons of art and fic.
There is no patience anymore. No calm feeling of taking in fandom and friends at a pace that which doesnāt make you stressed and is still fun.
Do I blame fandom for this? Of course not, but people are complacent with it and start changing their vocab to accommodate and end up making the situation so deep it cant be fixed.
We call Art & Fic Content now, completely stripping the value of what it is to a level of consumerism instead of personal entertainment & community bonding.
Let OP talk, theyāre absolutely right.
It really is crazy how fast people burn through things now. I saw people saying the Arcane fandom was dead only a few *weeks* after the last episode aired. Imagine being a fic writer working on a big fic for the show and seeing that. Or an artist working on a fan comic. Like, cāmon, people.
once i figure out how to do anatomy and facial expressions and proportion and foreshortening and basic perspective and color theory and composition then youll all be sorry
as they say, art is never finished - only abandoned. well I had this sketch in my folder for two years or something and after I gave it two more hours tonight I will abandon it now.
It was supposed to be a little painting practice and it served its purpose! Iāve been trying to learn to paint without a drawing underneath for years now and Iām happy with how it turned out overall. Just sat down, picked a brush and starting painting, smashing colors together until there was a pictureā¦
It shows my OC Toufik in his younger years, late 20s or so.
i wanted to ask youā¦.
/gets down on one knee
can our ocs hang out
does Vorgoth have an asmr channel? Iām asking for a friend
Lucanis saying itās so horrible what happened to Minrathous, he canāt imagine how Neve must feel and Shadowdragon Rook standing there like š¤”
nothinggg better than torturing an emotionally repressed character until every single trauma they've ever refused to process starts spilling uncontrollably out of the cracks. like a matryoshka doll situation of repressed trauma and baby you better believe i'm going in there with a hammer
everyone is (rightfully) talking about the viper but Iām actually lowkey obsessed with Tarquin š
