“Got the morbs” should be a thing.

[breelandwalker]

Victorian slang is AMAZING, and select phrases really need to make a comeback.

“Bitch the pot” - Pour the tea (HOW RELEVANT IS THIS!?)

“Bang up the elephant” - Absolutely perfect; super stylish

“Well, that’s shot the bale” - Something that has missed the mark entirely

“Church-bell” - A woman prone to gossip

“Chuckaboo” - A dear friend, a bosom chum

“Beer and skittles” - A great time (see also: Irish Gaelic “craic”)

“Butter on bacon” - Something overdone or too extravagant

“Cupid’s kettle drums” - Breasts, particularly large ones

“Gigglemug” - A cheerful smiling face

All of these??? Make me smile??? They’re so weird and wonderful I love them??? Especially bitch the pot because that’s something I could totally hear myself saying…that and chuckaboo

I worked in a Victorian tea house in my youth and I’m telling you, you haven’t lived till you hear a the 98 year old lady (this was some 15 years ago) utter the words “bitch the pot” because it was what they used to say when the tea house first opened and it just sort of stuck through all the generations.

There’s something pure in this photoset.

My style may not go well with most FT characters, but I always wanted to draw a group shot, so now that the manga is ending and I wanted to draw sth to celebrate, I kinda forced myself to finally do that lmao. So anyway, despite the ups and downs, FT has been my favorite series for the past few years (not to mention it gave me my favorite anime character ever) and I’ll really miss it, so I gotta thank Mashima for all these years, it’s been a wild ride ヾ(^▽^ヾ)

I drew pretty much each character separately (bc drawing them all together on one page was driving me crazy) but as a result the heights and sizes of each of them differ, so they may look kinda weird  or outta place I guess (I’m lookin at u Erza)

History

[odoodle]

sometimes I give myself specific art challenges, like…awkward comedic posing, and weight distribution, and physical interaction between characters, and ignoring narrative logic…and then for no good reason I let that sit half-finished on my computer for two+ years or whatever.  ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

in other words: please enjoy this incredibly contrived scenario.  

…somewhat inspired by:

based on this and this

conclusion: Wendy’s too pure for those jerks

teach me how to draw stuff I’ll pay u

A Pixelated Wooden Snorkeler Sculpted by Hsu Tung Han

[clockways]

Today let us make-

Let us make art and story and song

To throw back in the face

Of this wall of horror.

Today let us create-

Let us create life and worlds and wonders

To grow bright against

This tide of dark.

Today let us remember-

Let us remember to ourselves and others

We are the strength

In this hardship.

Today let us form the world

Instead of it being formed for us.

Toady let us remember and create and make.

5 Watercolor Texture Tricks - Full Tutorial 

[rurouni-kou]

#5 works great with acrylic too. I’ve used it to do an underwater scene on the side of a building for a whale mural once before and I used one of the heavy duty black trash bags to make that pattern. Wad it up in your hand and “blot” it on the wet paint. Worked perfectly.

Niiiiice. I’ve used the salt and splatter brush for tree textures, but that rubbing alcohol trick is lovely and completely new to me.
