Experiencing the Danny Phantom fanfic rite of passage by extensively researching where they do incisions in medical emergencies and getting less and less answers while the search engine sends me more and more pleas to contact a helpline

Rising from the dead (lol) to post my interpretation of Danny from @bravehyde ‘s fic. I love this fic sm right now; it’s insanely creative and cool. Hoping I’m not too off base with the design here I did my bestest(I could be on another planet for all I know haha)

Read Astral Chill today and decided to try and draw the boy. Danny's looking a lot more creature-y here than I initially planned, and I'm pretty sure I messed up on the ears, but i'm forgiving myself on the basis that when drawing a mythical being with no bones, human anatomy is more of a . . . guideline than a rule.

Another one for @bravehyde before I go to bed, this time with some slight design tweaks :*)

[bravehyde]

man I keep thinking about how much work I put in the symbolism of Phantom vs. Plasmius’s eye designs and now I want to make a whole post on just that and how I drew from ecology and speculative evolution but I don’t actually know if people are interested in how much research I put in these designs

Wanted to share how I’ve been imagining Danny while reading Astral Chill :D Wasnt sure quite how animalistic he was. Need to attempt to depict Vlad as well at some point…

I NEED TO SQUISH HIM god I love how I tried to describe him as cute-ish and when I see different people’s ideas of general shape for him they’re all cute in ways that can vary and work so well. He’s a marshmallow and I must toast him

HAPPY DANNYPOCALYPSE!

As well as a new chapter in Astral Chill, just for you!

22 years with this show, and many of them spent with a fandom who's so welcoming of AUs and headcanons that are dark, weird, or completely different from what you'd expect. I'd never have the courage to make something as ambitious as Astral Chill if it wasn't for a group that already accepts so much creativity and encourages more.

I hope new readers like alien Danny, the ones who have been with me for a year are loving cryptid Vlad, and that the reveals we have in store, while done by many, many writers across many, many stories, are just as satisfying in my work.
