Ahhhhhhhh! @obiwan and @space-twin have made a reality of something that feels surreal. Thank you-thank you-thank you!

My art has been signed by Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen.

I can’t believe it even though I see it. It took work to make it happen. I agonised over picking references and took a couple of tries to get to a point I thought good enough. The labour didn’t end there. These painting is are well travelled now. From me to them to London back to them and then back to me.

I painted these about a month ago, knowing their purpose. I picked this scene from the Kenobi show so that it’d feel relevant to the actors and bonus that it’s a lot of blue in the images since it’ll fit with most of the stuff I have in my home. I’m so happy 💙

I’m hard at work with more animated nsfw obikin art, but I came to a stage in one shot where Obi-Wan came alive so I put clothes on him meaning I can share. Look at him! He has so much character. I can’t believe I made this

“PATIENCE ANAKIN” *smirk*

I was looking at time lapses of old art, and this one’s a good one. It feels peaceful 💙

Decided to add some colour and share it again. Full animated comic strip here

When painting older suitless Vader, I thought I’d just as well try what older Jedi Master Anakin could look like.

I always give him longer hair, having him emulate Qui-Gon.

Same man, different lives.

Obligatory May the 4th post.

May the Force be with you. Always. ✨

I reworked this to a square because I have a square frame I’ve been looking to replace the artwork in. Also made it a bit bluer to fit with the rest of my decor.

Looked through my old art as you do and thought about the glittering text I added to the end of the progress video. Redid that part as a gif

The thing about fanfiction after writing original fiction for so long is that it feels like taking weighted clothes off. If I wanted a cool plot twist or a reveal or a mystery I had to set up all the expectations myself. I had to set up the red herrings, the clues, the boundaries of what was reasonable.

In fanfiction I drop a name from canon I never referenced before and it will carry the weight that a hundred pages of set up would carry in original fiction.

Do you have any fucking idea how intoxicating that is.

[abilusanji]

The shared language of a fandom in fanfiction is so amazingly conducive to a type of story telling that we lost when public domain was gutted as a legal concept. And it’s such a thrilling way to make stories and I weep for how rare it is to encounter.

Like you sort of get a ghoulish attempt with star wars style “look it’s revan” but it’s still only a handful of people who get to play. With fandom everyone gets to play with the full toolbox, with infinite chances to try.

It’s striking me really hard after reading this post–so much of what is considered the ~canon~ of western literature really arises out of this situation where everyone who wrote (i.e. a tiny minority of educated men and the very very rare educated woman) was operating with a common set of referents. There were just so few books, back then, and if you were educated enough to write, those were the books you had read, and that your teachers had read and told you about. Everyone got the same references.

We talk about the Divine Comedy being Bible fanfic and so forth, but it really was in a way we don’t always articulate–it wasn’t just that it was repurposing other stories the author had read. It was the product of an author who felt himself a part of a community that had this shared set of referents. He only had to allude to things, and his intended readers knew all of the context. Being in modern fandom allows us to be part of a community that likewise shares a canon and shares references and influences, something that is increasingly lost in modern copyrighted fiction where everyone is constantly desperate to be original.

Does Kata’s space hoodie count as a poncho?

a scene must be included PRIOR to sex where the characters READ their birth certificates OUT LOUD so the reader will know they were born on the SAME DATE to avoid any disgusting AGE GAPS
