ok so, I approached my local library with a proposal to donate a mural as a way to A: build portfolio/gain practical experience and B: give back to a beloved public institution. The director was very enthusiastic about it and i've been working on it since the beginning of March. Come with me as I endeavor to paint what is in all honesty an excessive amount of birds

I wanted the birds to look like they were actually in the space so first thing after doing the draft was to do a lighting study

after that I covered the walls in letters in lieu of a projector/vr headset bc i have neither of those :) Then i take a picture of the section of wall and superimpose the lineart over top of it so I can pencil in the lines

et voila

and that was a whole week on it's own so next comes the paintin' >:)

[nattousan]

and now, the birds

Birds 1 and 2/14: Red Winged Blackbird, Male and female, Agelaius phoeniceus

[nattousan]

Bird 3/14, American Robin, Turdus migratorius

[nattousan]

hoo boy, ok *out of breath*

GIVE IT UP FOR BIRD NUMBUH 5, THE CANADIAN GOOSE, Branta canadensis!!!!

this guy took me about 4 days to completely finish, all of those freakingk coverts were a bear to render

[nattousan]

speaking of obnoxious coverts:

bird 5/14, Bluejay, Cyanocitta cristata

the friggin stripes almost got me chat, i may not make it

[nattousan]

Madam....

[nattousan]

birds 6 and 7: American Goldfinch, Spinus tristis, male and female

pleasantly simple to paint! next is the flickerrrrr

[nattousan]

*melts into goo*

BIRD NUMBER 8, (yellow shafted) NORTHERN FLICKERRRRR, Colaptes auratus

genuinely made me start questioning my sanity around day 3, it's half the size the of the goose, WHY did it take me 4 days to finish??

nothing but pain and suffering, i'm sure hope the next bird will be much easier and with FAR less barring :)

[nattousan]

in other news, I am losing my mind hairline

[nattousan]

SHE'S DONE!!

Bird number 9: Red-tailed hawk, Buteo jamaicensis

my chains are broken i am FREE. although i did have a great deal of fun with this, the barring on the wings itself took me like four days and i am READY to move on

this was a week and a half of continuous work so please excuse me for getting a little emotional in the bg 🙏

[nattousan]

*does a little jig*

BIRD NUMBER 10!!! The Male Mallard Duck, Anas platyrhynchos

the male and female ones are gonna be posted separately bc they're taking a lot longer lol but yea! super happy i was able to capture the iridescent green of the head, i found metallic green and blue paint at a craft store that really made his head POP. it looks better in person i promise

ALSO!! As this is the 10th one, BIG announcement. The end is in sight!!!!! I plan to finish within the next 3 weeks and there will be a small dedication ceremony/ unveiling happening at the library to commemorate its completion on the 16th of May. If you live in the Western New York region and want to check it out for yourself shoot me a dm!

Also thank you everyone for your kind words and support throughout this whole process, it's been a genuine treat thinking there are potentially thousands of you out there cheering me on while I paint this 🥹

[nattousan]

aaaand another one bites the duck,

we're movin right along with bird numero 11!! The lady Mallard!! Anas platyrhyncos

the 16th is looming in the distance so i'm trying to get thru these as quickly as i can so i can have as much time for the GBH as possible. i still need to do the names next to all of them so i've got about a week and a half to finish everything which is GREAT because i have adhd and nothing gets my ass in gear like a fuckin deadline, let me tell you

[nattousan]

power couple that they are, here's bird number 12 and 13,

the Northern Cardinals, Cardinalis cardinalis

and NOW that they are complete, ITS GO TIME, in the next five days (library's closed for mother's day 😭😭) i need to have the GBH fully rendered, the names of the birds vectored, weeded, masked, applied to the wall, and then painted, plus additional cattails throughout. I may be able to get away with just getting the GBH done in time for the unveiling and then just have the names and cattails added later, but i'm gonna really try to get it all done in time. BUT, i have a plan. Part of why i take so long on these is because i really am just figuring it out as I do it lmao. there have been many a time where i am sitting on top of the ladder googling "how to paint birds" but I think if i take the time tomorro to do all that figuring out how to approach it beforehand, this will go a lot faster. I may also recruit some of my artist friends to help with the placing of the names... hrmm we'll see.

Anyways, shout out to the librarian who tracked down exactly the thing i needed so i could figure out where to place the highlights in my birds eyes, ur the real mvp

[nattousan]

thanks for the reminder, kid

[nattousan]

at long last, we've reached the end...

Bird number 14 out of 14,

The Great blue heron, Ardea herodius

thank you to everyone who reached out or got excited about this project, it genuinely gave me the fuel i needed to keep going. In total, the 480+ total hrs it took me to cover this wall pales in comparison to how long its expected to spend on there, hopefully imparting a sense of beauty and love for the natural world to the next generation and here's hoping i'm only getting started with these.

i'll see y'all soon :')

fandom etiquette as a whole died when people who didn’t grow up on fandoms became stans during lockdown, yes, but why am i seeing people openly mocking fics on twitter. why am i seeing screenshots of fics with captions like “bro what is this 😭.” why am i seeing people mock fic writers for not knowing how sports or theater or college or any other organization operates in the real world.

“college is absolutely nothing like this” “why are we writing four people on the team scoring a hat trick in one game” “so tech work is nothing like this, hope that helps!”

if you don’t like a fic, and if you can’t suspend your belief enough to enjoy a fic that exaggerates or ignores real-world orgs, you don’t have to read it. you don’t have to screenshot it and put it on blast for twitter. you don’t have to post a link to it in the replies. the back button is literally there on your phone. it’s not giving baby’s first fandom anymore, it’s giving entitled asshole and it isn’t as cute as you think it is.

Huhu! I’m in the I between time between blorbos right now, you ever had that? It sucks 😭 like I still obviously love my blorbos, but they don’t give me that fuzzy I’m in love feeling that I got when I “discovered” them. I know it will pass when I either find a new one or my brain randomly decides to fall in love all over with one of my “regulars” again, you get what I mean?

Anyway, do you still write for fallout? And would you be interested in writing some comfort soft stuff with The Ghoul from the tv series?

Love your stories and wish you all the best ❤️

oh i haaaaaaaate that feeling!! sometimes when i’m thinking of another beloved i’ll picture eddie standing on the corner judging me lmaoooo like my guy?? there’s fresh sparkles over here and i’m just LOOKING!!

i do still write for fallout and i loooove comfort and soft stuff, cooper delivers a very particular brand of care that’s maybe a bit like being gently petted with a wire sponge but it’s good enough for me!!

what were you thinking of?? 👀

[i-smoke-chapstick]

got the notif for this and anon is SO real 😭 was talking to my friend about this too earlier, everyone i know seems to be going through the inbetween blorbos phase rn including me 💔

Financial dom Buck you say…. I’d love to hear you expand on that if you’re up to it

If there are three kinks Buck Cashman has, it's service-topping, being called a slew of respectful monikers, and financial domming. That's it. That's the tweet.

But no, seriously. I've done an analysis on Buck Cashman's character in relation to money before right here. (where I think I mention findom!buck for the first time hehe) and I touch on how important greed is to Buck's character. I would really recommend reading that analysis, as it puts a lot of emphasis on my reasoning behind findom!buck.

Luxury. Money. Moving up in the world. At his core, he's a hired contract killer and a mercenary. Stability and order is a massive motivation for him, and with that comes financial stability.

Which is why I think it get's him a little hot and bothered when the aspect, or rather idea, or even the concept of money is brought up. I talk a lot about how Buck is a provider, he's a caregiver, he's very fatherly. That's daddy! That's our man of the house right there! He'll work for that damn money and he'll manage it too ;)

I've also mentioned how Buck loves an extremely dependent partner. Putting all your money and trust into Buck not only fuels his superiority complex but just makes him feel solid. He's got control of the situation, and he's a firm (perhaps, sometimes arrogant) believer that he can handle it all. All. Of. It.

He was managing Fisk's entire trust, shit, he'll manage your checking accounts. Might even offer to do your taxes. Social security number? Check. Investing your money into stocks of his choice? Check. He'll tell you he's doing it for the both of you, and in part that's true- but there is something perhaps a bit smarmy and selfish in the way he just takes pleasure in it. The power of it all. Knowing he could probably drain you dry if he wanted too.

Again, I've spoken about how Buck could blackmail his reader into staying with him if they decided they wanted to leave. I think at a baseline this is the exact type of material he would have on you. Literally every nook and cranny of your bank account memorized and/or scrubbed. He can be a sneaky little shit when he wants to be.

And he's just the type of guy to claim he doesn't want to have to do this, but you're forcing his hand! So you really should stay with him. Right under his wing. Forget about the grocery bill, the car payments, the loans and leases. Daddy's- Er, He's got it.

And while he's at it, he might transfer a little something something into his account too. After all, you're practically married already...what's the harm in sharing some assets?

One day he might just walk into your apartment wearing a Cartier watch you unknowingly paid for. But hey...it does look damn good on him. So does that Armani suit....and that Tom Ford belt...and speaking of belts, it just feels so nice wrapped around your wrists while he fucks you into the mattress. Now that's money well spent!
