Hi Nik! Hope you're having a good week so far <3.

I was wondering if you possibly had a tutorial for how you made this beautiful Midnights Tracks edit: https://www.tumblr.com/cal-kestis/699291288207507456/kanthony-as-midnights-tracks-insp

(Only if you're comfortable sharing of course!)

Hi! Thank you! I won't do a full tutorial, but I uploaded the template I made for this set to Ko-Fi. You can download it here!

You'll need the font Neue Haas Grotesk Display Pro 65 Medium. And here's an extra resource on how to use layer masks just in case!

If you change any of the song titles, just note that you'll have to adjust the layer mask on the "Title" folder, because I put a texture over the titles! But you could get rid of the texture layer if you want. I added it to make it as accurate to the original album cover as possible :) Hope this helps!

I haven't even finished the first episode of S3 Vol 2 but I want to kill Vilgefortz for what he did to Tissaia. It was so cold.

I thought he was gonna try to convince her to join him, that he was evil but did love her. Did not expect him to just drop her like that. I hope she gets to go full kill mode like Yen in S1.

i don't know how to respond without spoiling!! but vilgefortz is absolutely stone cold, if you remember in s2 we saw some cracks through his act of what was to come...

I followed you for your villain apologist posts and stayed for all the great MDZS/The Untamed posts.

two thumbs way up, I feel like that's an accurate description of what my blog has been for the last two years or so. well now there's kinnporsche stuff in there too but. point stands

I saw that we were complaining about TBOBF and I needed to get in on that…

I think most of us expected Din and Grogu to be reunited, but that really should’ve happened in the Mandalorian season 3.  They undermined the emotional weight of the season two finale and rushed what should’ve been a much longer arc.

absolutely. truly infuriating

I agree about scene selection being the hardest part of giffing! It's the tedious necessary step before getting to the fun part.

Coloring, blending, effects, typography...those are all certainly difficult, but they're difficult and fun at the same time.

yes it's SO tedious 😭😭😭 especially with the lag on 4k files

but YES all the effects can be challenging but when you've worked hard and then get to see what you imagined come to life, that's so satisfying 🥲 <3

You are definitely not awful at explaining things! I have learned so much from your tutorials. I tried so many blending tutorials and didn't think I'd ever be able to figure it out, I only learned it once I found yours. And your coloring tutorial where you explain how to color with layer masks was so helpful as well! You're a great gifmaker, and you're great at teaching people gifmaking.

thank you so much for taking the time to say that, it means a lot! i don't think every tutorial is for everyone because we all have brains that work differently and so the way that i work just won't make sense for everyone, so it just blows my mind that it has actually helped someone. i'm so happy i was able to share some things that were helpful for you, it's the most amazing thing to know that you've been able to learn from them! now i'm just rambling but i really appreciate this so much, thanks for taking a moment to reassure me ❤️
