Intro

Side blog. Mostly thoughts and art. Nightcrawler-centric.

Blog specific tags as follows:

#nadelige’s notions: any text post written by me, sometimes contains WIPs or doodles

#my art: any art created by me

#art by op: any art or thoughts by other blogs

Characters are individually tagged.

Sometimes I limit reblogs and comments.

Fine with any and all pronouns and terms.

I was banging with these pieces, so you get to see them too. Won't do this often. Just super proud of these and want to show them to everyone bye.

Mountain Path

I tried hiking up Mt. Takachiho but ended up only making it to a section of the hike called The Horse’s Back. It’s exactly as the name implies, a very narrow path with a steep drop off on either side, as though you were walking along the spine of a horse.

The weather was not in my favor, poor visibility combined with very windy conditions, so I ended up bailing and returning back to the safety of the forest. I hope one day to return to properly summit Mt. Takachiho but until then I’ll just have Ryouma and Oryou do it again.

would you guys hate me if I reblogged some art from my main blog

[n4delige]

I hate insta AI stuff but I miss posting on Insta man. It feels like there's no point in giving it up because everyone still uses it...started poking around on it again cause I use it for work stuff now and slowly have gotten back to sharing art on there again...

At least it's not as bad as Twitter. You'd have to put a gun to my head to make me actually go back to Twitter at this point.

Learned that an early concept for the Deadpool and Wolverine movie was a riff on Kurosawa’s Rashamon and do you know how funny that would have been to see? That would have been so awesome.

I like when they redesign a character and it’s worse and communicates nothing about the original character

I hate this

This is a rant. If you're into what's going on in the comics, don't read it. If you hate MacKenzie and everything about her like I do, read on.

No. Just no. This is not a story. This is nothing but an excuse to ask the artist to draw Kurt wearing nothing but underwear. Now I'm here for Kurt in his underwear but this is so contrived it doesn't work at all. It's just stupid. MacKenzie shows up unannounced after ghosting Kurt for days, only to tell him it's not because she's scared for herself or her children but for HIM? That doesn't even make sense.

Jubilee doesn't bother to tell Kurt to maybe put on some pants? Instead she tells him it's an emergency. Excuse me, no, I don't care how long it's been, this is not an emergency, and you do not tell someone it is, especially when you're a fucking X-Man and you know the definition of "emergency." Jubilee is suddenly so stupid she can't figure out that if MacKenzie dropped by, finally, she might, I dunno *wait for him to get dressed*?

MacKenzie is a non-entity--when I say that I mean she has no personality, no development. She is nothing. She could be replaced by a sexy lamp. She could be replaced by literally ANYthing and it wouldn't matter. Large rock? Tree with flowers? Mannequin dressed like Rachel Summers? Bottle of vodka? IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE BECAUSE MACKENZIE HAS NO PERSONALITY.

I'm tired of this. I am tired of the way comics are being written. I don't want a fast paced, no development "story" that tells me nothing. It's boring. I don't care how many monsters you put in it or how many fight scenes. I don't care how many times Remy says "chere" to Rogue. I don't care about any of these characters, because they don't feel real at all. They're like paper cutouts that some kid smashed faces together to make them kiss.

Complain about Claremont and his fetishes all day, because I will join you, but the man could write a story. He could make these characters into real-feeling people. Reading his stories made you feel like you knew them, you cared about them, you were concerned for them. Now? Nothing. Mutina is boring. Sarah Gaunt was boring. The robbers who went after the little old lady's purse and almost made Remy eat them are boring. All of it is boring, because I don't care about these paper cutouts.

MacKenzie is the worst of all, because at least the others have backstory and history I can fall back on and remember who they used to be. Her? She is literally nothing. She's not even a paper cutout. She's nothing at all. What is her personality? You can't tell me because she doesn't have one. What does she care about besides her children? You can't tell me because we don't know. What is her job? What is her history? Is she divorced or widowed or never married? Where is she from? What are her passions? We know nothing about her because she is flat and boring and is just in place to create scenes like the above.

I get that a lot of people really like Kurt and wish they could meet and date him in real life. I understand the desire for self-insert fics because of that. It's fine. But when that starts affecting published comics, that needs to stop. I don't want to read this author's self-insert wish. I want to read a STORY about a character I like. This isn't a story. It's barely a sto.

And yes, the length of the books is a problem. When you get three pages to tell something, it's hard. Comics also used to be longer, I'm pretty sure. If not, they sure packed a lot more into the pages because they felt longer. Now it's just wham bam thank you ma'am and it isn't working.

These are my opinions. I recognize that other people feel differently and that is okay. You don't have to agree with me but I ask that you be polite and kind if you feel the burning desire to tell me so.
