A more official introduction is in order. Hey hey! I'm Cinna :D

Here's some fun facts about me:

✧ I'm an artist and oc creator. These ocs occupy my mind relentlessly, but I tend to focus on whatever interest overpowers my mind more at the moment

✧ The (Wonderful) Wizard of Oz is a life-long interest of mine, so I tend to focus on it often as well

✧ I share art sometimes! I don't offer commissions at the moment.

✧ My account has no real focus or organization. I share and interact with what I like, how I like. At the moment, I simply enjoy having things in one place.

✧ 18, but all are welcome on my blog! Just be decent.

✧ I like: Art, The (Wonderful) Wizard of Oz, Overwatch, Original Characters (of all kinds!), and Musicals :3

Current Focus: The (Wonderful) Wizard of Oz

I am a yapper so it's time for a Cinna Ramble

I've been thinking a lot about my personal characterizations of the oz gang and especially the Tin Man (partly thanks to finishing The Woodsman play by James Ortiz)... And y'know what. I love many adaptations and depictions of the Tin Man. I love him being an emotional sweetheart who romanticizes life, I love him dealing with the horror and deep internal shame of what he is compared to who he used to be, I love him being rather gruff and almost "heartlessly" pessimistic because of his state.

The Oz books and characters have a special place in my heart, but so does the adaptations that come from passionate fans and the desire to build upon a character that's charmed you in some way. I don't necessarily agree with automatically regarding such deviations as "mischaracterization", because there's so much you can do with Oz and its terrifically fantastic world and characters.

Needless to say—as I'm working on my Tin Man design and characterization, I think I'm going to mix those aspects I love. He can be tender and romantic, deep down he wants to be. But what happened to him is horrific and he resents it. He is colder or pessimistic at times because of what he's seen and what he feels (or, in his point of view, lack thereof). I think these traits can compliment each other in a creative sense and be so fun to write. I love a good tragedy of the Tin Man, and I love the glimpses of hope, love, and perseverance shining through his story. There's so much more I want to do and say but I'll leave that for another time.
