I got that sort of? I thought the white dot was representing salmon. White dot with black overlay representing no salmon.
I do apologise if you found the comic difficult to read. The oblong white dot(s) was salmon (visual of the ‘flash’ that fish do when they swim, plus a bright/shining positive connotation.) The overlaid ones are moon cycles, showing time as a natural measure (the only one I can think of that a cetacean might grasp, other than seasons and I don’t know how to show an oceanic shorthand for that... because we think of seasons as the stages of trees, or ground-cover... BLRGH) Dipper’s bright dot is the same ‘I’m here’ dot with a highly positive connotation, sort of like the sun. I imagine even sea creatures orient to and are interested in the sunlight, especially cetaceans since it represents the direction of up/air/life.

An ACNL Villagersona request for @calicougar! :D
More to come!

raged so hard they lost a finger! *runs away*
Haha, so many things enrage me about the worgen models in-game. Why did five fingers become four. Why did five toes become three and a dewclaw. These structures translate pretty well from human to canine anatomy, but Blizzard... well. Not so good at animals. BECAUSE FANTASY AMIRITE.
I guess I’m more willing to stick to the finger fuckery than I am the toe fuckery, probably because I logged so many hours drawing goblins that four fingers doesn’t feel that weird :|
calicougar replied to your post:So instead of crane flies apparently this year’s...
Are they perhaps, fungus gnats? They come from potted plant soil indoors.
Probably not, since we don't keep any potted plants indoors, and they don't look like the pictures that GIS brings up. And for that matter, these don't look like the pics that it brings up for fruit flies either, so I may have my terminology mixed up.
They're about half the size of a housefly, but with rounded bodies and splayed wings that are large for their size, and colored black. Any ideas?
Getting carded...

It's true. The bouncers kept trying to redirect me to the Claire's in the outlet mall.

I like the fact that I'm apparently trying to get my grandkids into a bar in this scenario.

Babyfaces unite!
At one bar, the guy let my sister in, but then stopped me and straight up asked me, "You old enough to be in here, my man?" He kind of did a double take when he looked at my ID and saw the 70s birth date.
I'd like to think that my E.T.-like physique coupled with a double chin and blank, tired, thousand yard stare would make me look my age, but I guess I should be flattered.
Ironically, the only place I didn't get carded was the place I had two big-ass glasses of absinthe and a whiskey sour. I was like a happy ghost floating around Bourbon Street after that.
calicougar replied to your post:That point in an artwork where you aren’t finished...
thats when i scan it!
This one is all digital, so thankfully I have backups of backups! I love how the lines turned out, but I'm afraid they'll get lost in the coloring.

Did you get that bored fat cop too? Or jackshit? Because the first time I couldn't even call 911. There's not even a answering machine there. Then the second time I called 911, they told me "break ins aren't an emergency, you have to call the police directly." Which involved a lot of searching on their horribly put together site to find the district that polices our neighborhood and entering in a too complicated number.
When I got bored fat cop, he was just like "I do not want to be here." He did no detective-ing. He didn't seem to give a crap that my apartment on the 3rd story got broken into by most likely a tenant there. He even said "oh yeah break ins happen all the time here." How come nobody is investigating this shit then?!
It made me so mad. Burbank (where I moved next) was MUCH more on the ball about any kind of disturbance. Hell we got cops coming to our door if we made too much noise even. Not that this was appreciated, but at least they DO something.
Van Nuys might just be one of those infamous LA shitholes. I was on a "good" street, as in "nobody got shot here, but there's hookers 'round back!" I like the people but damn if it wasn't mismanaged.
