I'm A weirdo who makes comics and writes silly little books! Uhh what else? Oh right! I have a book (and comic) Cosmic paths!!! Its a sci-fi action mystery thing following a person named Erin after they find themselves trapped on a slave ship with amnesia! I also have a comic called sun cows! Following Icarus, Helios and Apollo focusing on teaching Greek mythology and looking at little whole sun gays while we're at it

Just watched brand new day

My favorite Hivewing Oc, Murder Hornet. I love how the gradient looks on him, especially the wings. I also really like how the solid black head looks (don't know why it doesn't look like that in the drawing). He was actually featured in a video by Dogloverlikesdoge. (The art was made a few years ago which is why it looks so bad.)

Imagine your protagonist twenty years after the story ends. What single decision from your novel still echoes through their life—for better or worse?

Made a Pokémon themed cake for my brother’s birthday. Decorating took around 3 hours. Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire were the first games we played so most of the Pokémon are from the Hoenn region.

Something neuroscience-y that helps with prose: attention is selective. A character will not notice everything in a room. They will notice what matters to their goal, fear, desire, training, wound, or obsession. A jealous character notices hands. a hungry character notices food. A soldier notices exits. A lonely character notices pairs. Description becomes character when attention has a bias.

hey hey so that new jimmy video. really cool right, super fun super nice seeing the improvement right. so have we considered the possibility that this version of the life winners remain trapped in these walls for eternity and awaiting challengers? they dont even know when they’ll be free. probably never, cause losing doesn’t do a thing, they’re still trapped? maybe scar turned his into a sunflower field. maybe he’s still back in secret life. who knows! either way, theyve been here for god knows how long and the only time they get to see what’s changed in the world is when ppl come to challenge them so they jump into battle without a moment’s hesitation. its all they know how to do now. they get a glimpse of what could be for a second or two and go out like an immortalized flame. awaiting the next challenger

Finished the digital version of Helios and his cows.

personally, i believe you can be either accurate or have fun with a story’s visuals that’s historical in any way. unfortunately Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey doesn’t look like it’s doing either

[whimsicalfairytales]

The “nobody” scene in the odyssey is absolutely not just a clever pun—it’s a character defining moment for Odysseus because he refuses to be nobody. He devised an incredible plan that worked and he could have saved his men and returned home much sooner but he just had to yell to the cyclops that he isn’t nobody—he’s Odysseus, king of Ithaca so now Poseidon knows who to curse which severely fucks up the rest of the journey.

The “nobody” scene highlights both Odysseus’s cleverness but also his arrogance and those two traits define Odysseus throughout the entire story. It’s a foundational aspect of Odysseus’s character and cutting the scene displays a shocking level of ignorance and disregard for the themes in the source material.

A flower husbands poem, companion piece to my desert duo one, because I cannot help myself ever

[Transcript under the cut]

Jimmy

I told you

I love you,

if only we had the time.

our world is on fire;

I’m not reckless

I can see

the path forward.

live for me

my lover,

for I know

that I will die.

I’m sorry.

Scott

be careful,

mind the traps.

I’ll wait for you even as

my walls burn.

you are

red, and

I need you to

hold fast

my husband,

as the sun rises

I am home.

I love you.

[The poem is formatted with the "Jimmy" side and the "Scott" side next to each other; the columns can be read separately, for their individual sides, or together, with the corresponding lines being read as one.]

Apollo sketch 🙏

[pearlthehedgehog]

Another museum art, this one is actually Achilles related!

Random student #1 is blocking the plaque but its called "thetis bringing the armor to Achilles"

I'm pretty sure it's ment to be after pats death just before they rejoin the war :D

So understandably their emotional. Apollo just wants attention -_-

[pearlthehedgehog]

Idk if it's because I'm traveling and with my bestie, the Odyssey comming out, or procrastinating artfight but I've gotten a lot of inspo for sun cows!

So here's a little comic with Helios and Icarus actually getting along for once

Icarus is sea sick and Helios feels bad ❤️

[pearlthehedgehog]

The art Apollo is looking at shows someone high so uncensored version under the cut
