Hiatus indefinitely

[pooqa]

come back soon :( I miss u art

Hi there. I’m flattered you missed my art, but it’s more than likely I won’t be coming back (in fact the only reason I knew of this ask was due to an e-mail alert, I stopped browsing well before I stopped posting)I’m sorry I suddenly disappeared, I appreciate the support I’ve gotten over the years, but the simple answer is I’m happier being off this site. Thank you for your concern, though, and I hope you have a lovely day Anon

sketch dump of some sketches and some not very sketchy sketches from the past week or so

been feeling pretty down lately, so i did some quick paintings of Ree to calm me down a bit

[pooqa]

a MMA cat girl who would eat you for breakfast, probably

i was messing with Tsiro's design a bit and i had an incredibly sudden realization that i can draw her in suits 100% of the time and have it work for the story, and im so frustrated at the sheer amount of wasted time for not realizing this possibility sooner (ﾉД｀)

[pooqa]

been playing a lot of bravely default, and these are the outfits i like the best 'w'

i'll probably finish these later, but who knows

1. yes Eric is my oc, and thank you so much!! i think they're pretty adorable too, especially with the new hair haha ;w; (also, i know i haven't said anything about it but Eric is actually gender fluid. so please use they/them over he/him, i would really appreciate it!)

2. whispers thank you _(:3 」∠ )_ the materials i use for traditional stuff is pretty much always a sketchbook and a mechanical pencil lmao, if im ever adventurous enough to do anything beyond that i use micron pens, a white gel pen, and these warm-grey design markers

and then occasionally i'll try watercolors and inks, but that's only when the moon is blue on a tuesday, so it doesn't happen often  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and i hope you have a nice day too!!

3. thank you so much!! ;w;

4. i mainly use SAI to do digital stuff, and a little bit of photoshop CS5 for effects/editing. and the tablet i use is a 10" yiynova; it's a pretty good tablet monitor for its price if you're looking for one! (my only warning would be that the colors appear fairly desaturated on it, but that can be negated if you put the navigator on the computer's monitor instead of the tablet)

[pooqa]

changed Eric's hair!! mainly for setting reasons, because it actually wouldn't make sense for there to still be harsh chemicals like bleach available, but also because i just like this look better on them ┐(￣ヮ￣)┌

[pooqa]

Happy first drawings of the new year?? I think I'm going to aim to be a little more loosey-goosey with my lines/sketches and not be so controlling for this year. I also want to experiment a lot and try things I haven't dont before!! ٩(* `^´ *)۶

[pooqa]

SO THE LOK FINALE WAS FANTASTIC AND TBH IM STILL SCREAMING OVER HOW GOOD IT WAS everything that i wanted to happen as well as things that i never thought could *coughsKORRASAMI happened, and to say the least, i am incredibly satisfied with life right now

[pooqa]

a little bit of color and painting practice~

[pooqa]

some value/composition practice thumbnails from last month that i liked. it was hard to not get carried away with details for some of these *__*

[pooqa]

I went in with the intention of drawing a high school AU but I ended up with Ree in over-sized jackets instead. Needless to say no regrets have been had ∠( ᐛ 」∠)＿

the most ridiculous thing is when white people say “if a black man kills a white man it doesn’t get anywhere near this amount of attention” because it is so obvious that you are Missing The Point if you think that’s what this is about.

when a black man kills a white man, the black man is put on trial. he is charged with a crime. he is properly punished for committing murder. no one sits around wondering “did the white man deserve it?” there is no question.

the case is clear: murder. justice is served. it’s done. 

but a white cop kills an unarmed black man and suddenly america has doubts. suddenly it’s all about justifying the murder. it’s about proving that the black man deserved to die. the black man is put on trial for his own murder, witnesses are discredited, lies are told, and the white cop gets off free. 

the difference is that if it’s a black man shooting a white man, justice is served and the murderer is charged with murder. if it’s a white man shooting a black man, the system works to protect exactly who it wants to protect: the white man. no justice is served. the murderer suddenly had probable cause. 

and this isn’t an isolated incident. this happens all the time.

trying to derail the discussion with, “what if it was a black cop and a white boy?” is utterly pointless because it is completely ignoring the fact that this never would have happened otherwise. you want to know what would happen? the cop would be indicted. he would be charged with a crime. he would rot in prison forever. no one would ever spend long hours debating whether or not it was self-defense.

don’t try to flip the situation. it cannot be flipped.

this was supposed to just be a warm-up drawing of my newest girlfriend Gogo Tomago but I lost control of myself and ended up spending all day drawing this and staring at photos of Gogo... 8')
