not spoilers really but this is just me being sentimental about tadc
It’s been 3 whole years. I’ve been on tumblr for like, almost that long. Idk, I just can’t help but be sentimental. I was in a very different spot when this show came out. It was my last year of high school. I was just figuring out I was autistic, and had no idea how to cope. I was grieving hard, and coming to terms with the idea that I wasn’t going to pursue a creative career.
I graduated, worked a few jobs, started my career, and learned a lot. I improved my art by drawing these characters. I’ve received almost nothing but kindness from other artists and fans.
When I started posting on here, I didn’t expect anything, and now I feel like I’m a part of a community. I’m aware this fandom is notorious. Sometimes for good reason. But I’ve had a lovely time making art and sharing it.
Most things I post here aren’t very serious. Most aren’t some beautiful vent piece that provokes interpretation or thought. A good ninety percent of my posts are silly ship art. But having something fun to work on has been a lifeline.
I attach myself to characters and stories, and I’ve walked through adulthood with this fandom.
I personally loved the finale, I was ready to have my pencil in hand to create my own little version of the ending, but I’m honestly so satisfied with it. I know not everyone feels the same, and there are definitely a few things I didn’t love, but I don’t know. Feeling really sentimental after watching it with friends.
All this to say, thank you for following my art journey. I appreciate every little interaction, and I’ve so enjoyed being a part of this community.
This is the first ever fanart I made for this series! I remember being really proud of this lol. Time sure has flied. Flew? Flown? Idk
I made this one fairly soon after
cast lineup I never cared to finish from 2024
oooh Caine looked like doo doo here
I don’t hate the idea of this one but I think the execution could’ve been better
I still think this one’s cute
I still adore the carnival au by @sm-baby
This one’s one of my all time faves (even though queenie’s ring is on the wrong finger whoops)
This one really reminds me of my parents, I like this one
I’ve had so much fun with my little phantom of the opera au, I really aught to make more stuff for it
And finally, my latest piece! I’m really happy with how this one turned out!
Again, thank y’all for coming along with me on this silly little journey. I’m absolutely over the moon that there’s almost a thousand of you guys (literally less than ten away!!!) little me couldn’t fathom having this many people be interested in what I make.
I hope y’all have a lovely morning, afternoon, or night! This isn’t the last of tadc ramblings or drawings, I’ll certainly be back. I do want to focus on personal projects as well. Either way, thanks again 🌹❤️
