you have this superpower! BUT you have this side-effect

is it worth it?

yes!!

the side effect is bad but ITS WORTH IT

meh it's okay

the side effect makes it unusable/not worth it

Results/option I didn't think of

imma be real they were all psychonauts themed i had to put em in one place together

anyways heres @make-them-laugh lovely commissions i've been workin at for basically three months now!! very happy with how they came out :]

we've got old people polycule, doomed yaoi, and a lovely family photo EVERYONE is VERY happy to be included in :D

[make-them-laugh]

LOOK AT ALL THE AMAZING ART STAR DID FOR MEEEEEE!!!

I had SO much fun getting updates about these during the drawing phase, but I think the most fun was working together to come up with designs for the kids for my Reversed Aquatos AU (birth order of the kids is reversed, so Queepie is the oldest with his dearest twinsie Mirtala, Raz is true middle once again, feral little gremlin Frazie, and little baby Dion)

God I love these all SO much.

I love the Polycule

I love the TeddyDion (Teddy is an oc I made with @brain-bumbler )

I love the family picture that Raz is OBVIOUSLY thrilled to be involved in

These were all worth every second of waiting, and I am so happy with all of them!

(Bonus, this was the "ref" I gave for reversed aquatos)

I outsource my art for a *reason* lol

[bigtop-circusbear]

@make-them-laugh commissioned me for this VERY fun piece and i had a fuckin ball the WHOLE TIME drawin it

for my polycule truthers this ones for YOU

while commissions arent open, my kofis sketches are always available!

[infectiouspiss]

everyone line up i've got one bottle of testosterone gel and there's 17,000 of you i'm about to pull a move not seen since jesus did the bread and fish glitch 2000 years ago

[imsopopfly]

Did I spend way too much time setting this reference up? Yes. Was it worth it? Also yes.

[make-them-laugh]

THAT'S AMAZING

I usually plant trees in the formation, cut them to stumps, and bury something at the center! But I like this more!!!

[bigtop-circusbear]

can i make this post unprofessional as hell cuz i just really wanna do it?

ok anyways

post-Valentines Day aka "Half-off Chocolate Day" commissions are open :D!!

from now till Feburary 25th im gonna slide open 3 slots on the commission wheel and offer em up for cheap! :D i have a fondness for post-Valentines day, i love a good post-holiday sale, so i wanna play into that!

while sketches stay the same price, those will be available consistently through my Kofi at request until the 25th as well. Meaning if you cant secure a commission slot proper, don't fret! You can still come down from circus tent to concessions stand and grab urself a nice warm cup of kofi if ur feelin it :] (we at Circus Bear's Big Top are not responsible for the insane amount of caffeine you will inevitably ingest by drinking said coffee. drink at your own risk.)

please note that all extras are still the same price, merely base pricing has been discounted.

so basically, spoil urself this post-valentines, grab urself a lil gift down at the Circus :D

Oh hey, do you know what time it is? It is highly specific resource time!

Today we have the Royal School of Needlework Stitch Bank! There are HUNDREDS of stitch types in the RSN Stitch Bank.

And more added regularly, let’s look at a recent addition

I picked the first one in the 25 recently added Elizabethan stitches, the Elizabethan French Stitch

The stitch bank provides written and photo tutorials as well as a video option to learn to do it yourself. There are examples of the stitch in use, resources, references, everything but a needle and thread!

RSN Stitchbank

rsnstitchbank.org

[vincentbriggs]

I looked at some of the tutorials last night and holy shit I'm so impressed! They're SO thorough! Not only do they have written and video instructions, but there are photo and illustration options for each image AND a "flip view" button so that left handed people can see all the images in reverse!

[theprofessional-amateur]

I am going to jump in and add, as you said they are very detailed in their directions, something that takes a lot of time and money.

If anyone who has enjoyed this resource has the means, I encourage you to adopt or sponsor a stitch to help keep this free to access. I know not everyone has the means to (fair, been there) but if you can, check out their sponsor options

RSN Stitch Bank Progress

And one other resource I have shared before, The Lady's Magazine. Embroidery patterns from 1770-1819. In case anyone wants some historic ideas for using all these new embroidery stitches

Your are the monarch of a historical/fantasy kingdom, who perished many years ago and your name is only written down in recorded history, know only to future generations.

Out of the 130 options in the picker wheel here (all are gender neutral),

What do you think of your epithet/nickname/sobriquet?

I love it!

I hate it!

What did I do?!

It's alright

Could be better

Could be worse

I got nothing

Voting ended onMar 11, 2025

And yes: there is a 'no epithet' option in there.

I got The Oathtaker.

[kale-of-the-forbidden-cities]

okay, okay. Imagine you're watching Gravity Falls for the first time. You watch all the episodes in order EXCEPT one of them is mysteriously left out.

spin this wheel to see which one you skipped

how confused are you?

completely lost

a bit confused

i can probably put the pieces together

this will only make some scenes or references confusing

i didn't even notice i skipped an episode
