having 40 minutes to leave the house is terrible because 40 minutes is basically 30 minutes and 30 minutes is basically 20 minutes and 20 minutes is basically fifteen seconds. but 50 minutes? 50 minutes is an hour, and an hour? ooobh thats plany off time

[marocelot-too]

just broke down and cried for fifteen minutes, because the website i was doing my homework on had a stopwatch function for no apparent reason and it took me a bit longer than usual to do the assignment :3 i love being neurodivergent (sarcasm)

this was a pretty fun challenge, try it out if you haven't already

F2U character sheet templates

A friend of mine was having trouble making reference sheets for her characters, so I made quite a few!

I figure these could be really useful if anyone else was struggling too, so these are all F2U

They could be really useful for Artfight, so keep that in mind :)

obligatory reblog of this after I forgot to bookmark them (again)

[allykatsart]

:D

[marocelot-too]

so there i was, peacefully doing my homework in adobe acrobat reader, when i suddenly felt the urge to doodle something. 'eh, why not' i thought... then BAM half an hour later i have this messy bullshit scribble in front of me

(please ignore the fact that my chemistry homework is in russian)

[marocelot-too]

was rewatching the clone wars and got to s2 ep4 apparently the 'c' in 'clovis' does not stand for 'consent'

[marocelot-too]

insert title here

to be honest it would be pretty easy to get me to join forces with evil.

all the villain would have to do is promise they would cure my leg pain, and the next thing you know i'm on my corruption arc for real

[titotastic]

Sup tf2 tumblr!! Got a work in progress of a lip sync animation with Scout- just gotta clean it up n all that >:3

[marocelot-too]

THIS IS EPIC! the movements are very smooth, and the body language and expressions are very much reminiscent of old disney films! you are very skilled :D

[benanazauce]

I was gonna post these only when I was fully finished with all the tfa pride doodles but I’m really impatient so!!!!! here are a few for now!!!! I think they’re coming along well!!!!!

[nattousan]

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 :')

[quasi-normalcy]

Weirdly common stock genre show plots:

Time loop

Body swap

Some members of the team get shrunk (and have to go inside someone's body)

All the male members of the team are turned into simpering idiots by pheromones and have to be saved by the female member(s) of the team and I guess this is feminist somehow

Time loop

Everyone on the team is trapped in their individual worst nightmares and the episode is called "Fear Itself"

Someone goes all "Heart of Darkness" on an alien planet

Trapped in a VR simulation (but you can die for real!)

The team is brainwashed into serving in the workforce of some alien planet

Lotus-eater plot (everyone is trapped in an idyllic fantasy world)

Time loop

One or more members of the team "de-evolve" into cavemen

Someone on the team "evolves" to have super-intelligence (and this is bad)

Time loop

[quasi-normalcy]

Rapid aging

Alternate timeline where the villains have won

Cut to ten or so years in "the future" except it's not real or has to be undone

Ill-tempered child has reality-warping powers

Time loop

Mundane member of the team gets superpowers

Superpowered member of the team becomes mundane

Everyone starts acting like teenagers

An alien does horrifyingly invasive things to team members but it turns out that it's just trying to communicate

[quasi-normalcy]

Everyone loses their memory

Character wakes up in a asylum and is told it was all a delusion

[sexycraisinthanos]

Wizard of Oz parody

They go back in time and one of the members has a crush on someone only to find out it’s their or someone else’s parent

Two people swap roles to prove that they have it worse than the other

It’s a wonderful life parody

Someone gets split up into their different personality traits

Cute creature is actually a multiplying monster that eats everything

April fools episode. Usually a musical episode

[marocelot-too]

• Beach episode/vacation episode

• Everyone gets teleported into a interdimensional game show

• People are slowly being replaced/mind controled by the villain ('everyone is acting so weird lately')

• A character has a weird fear that they try to hide from the rest of the team and are forced to confront it at the end of the episode, usually defeating it

• One of the heroes and their respective nemesis gets stuck in a Situation™ and are forced to work together (sometimes they start to bond but once they get out they're enemies again)

• SPY AMONG US (the spy turns out to be the newest member. who could've thunk it?!)

[ravioliet]

freak4freak is always so awesome but another character dynamic that i think is really great is freak vs freak. you're the only person who understands me and i'm the only person who understands you. unfortunately this also does not stop either of us from hating each other and in fact it might even make everything significantly worse for everyone involved

' I N T E R E S T I N G B E H A V I O R ' instead of 'wtf' never fails to make me chuckle

[suzieloveships]

The "Decepticons are actually the good guys and Autobots are evil in TFA" take/theory is actually bad because it watersdown the moral grayness of the whole situation and complete ignore all the cruel act commited by the Cons

True, but have you consider that I need an outlet for my hatred towards the goverment

Some people def take it too far and completly wash away all of Cons' sins and I do not stand for that but still! In my eyes they are saints in comparison to shit Ultra Magnus says and does. I legit hate that guy
