honestly your art carries a sense of realism with it, not in the sense that it looks hyperrealistic, but in the sense that it just looks "real"? like you manage to capture a moment thats just happening naturally, if that even makes sense. it carries a certain kind of warm feeling, which is why i love it. idk if you can call it a style, but i could recognise it anywhere
also, out of pocket can be fun :D do it for the plot
omg that's so sweet.
the warmth might be my shit ton of warm toned overlays.
But your colours are also so warm and your artstyle is so adorable. they way that you draw Bernard fundamentally shaped how I see this character
also do it for the plot is so real. my old fanart of damian with the bird is actually based on me sleeping at uni cause we found a bird with a heatstroke.
but also doing it for the plot is higjkey dangerous and will get you bullied by your friends (my friends at home didn't like that I want jogging during a typhoon. they still nag me about it)
(also if it is fine, what band, song, or album do you like since i like to put some kinda lyrics in there)
that's so sweet omg yes please go ahead ^-^
whenever I get asked for my favourite bands I feels so put on the spot because I have to pick and I never know how to pick favourite. is it okay if I give you multiple answers so you can pick or would you like me to narrow it down?
my current favourite song is Tau mich auf but it's germon so I guess that won't be of any use for you... my second favourite is Don't Pull Your Love Out and lastly Touch of Gray
As for bands, I usually forget to look at the Artists when I listen to Music... But my fav bands are Broccoli, you too? Sun Room and Stray Kids
I have embarrassingly little albums saved on spotify... my favs are Cheap Soda and Ice cream kisses Candy and The Hazbin Hotel Soundtrack those three might or might not be all of the albums I saved on spotify...
i thought you might like to see mini jason that i drew since i’ve started trying to learn how to draw (literally started yesterday and this is what i got)
(and yes this is coming from me, the person who believes he has no art skills at all)
he is adorable. I love his annoyed eyes.
If you ever need help, feel free to ask. i might not be the best person to help, but i am here.
If you saw how i started digital drawing (back then with a drawing tablet with no screen) you would think you are doing great so far.
Art is a learnable skill. i was actually close to failing Art class in middle school. it depends entirely on how much effort you spend and how much you want to learn
Would princess get jealous if she saw Lloyd maybe talking (or what she would perceive as flirting/getting cozy) with another woman? While I know they agreed on an affair something tells me she’d feel those twinges of jealousy deep down 🫢
There are a few different reactions she might have, depending on the context of the flirting. She’s emotionally intelligent and great at managing conflict (after all, she is the oldest of five kids). Here’s a sampling of scenarios and how Princess would react to each.
1. A woman flirts with Lloyd and he casually flirts back out of habit.
Let’s say he accidentally flirts back to a waitress one night when you’re having dinner. In this situation Princess would be amused, but she wouldn’t let Lloyd know it right away. Because seriously, who wastes ammo like that? She would hold it over his head and pretend to be upset just to watch him stew in discomfort.
Lloyd only flirted out of habit and he’s annoyed that the whole situation is just a slip of the tongue. He wants to brush it all under the rug and move on. Princess isn’t about to let that happen. After all, you should set your expectations clearly in any relationship, right? Even if it is “just an affair.” Drawing out the reaction to provoke him, she lets him wheedle and negotiate.
Lloyd grows more and more horrified. He knows he screwed up, but he also has no idea what one does to fix this kind of thing. He hadn’t intended to upset you. The flirting didn’t mean anything. He wasn’t interested in that woman! Then the fatal words leave his mouth: “It was no big deal.”
Your eyes narrow. His skin prickles as you scan the room with a predatory gaze.
“Princess…”
“Hmmm?”
“Don’t even think about it,” Lloyd says.
“It’s no big deal. You know I’m not actually interested, but a woman should always keep her hunting skills sharp!”
With a vicious smirk, you slide out of the booth and walk towards a lonely looking man at the bar. Lloyd tosses cash on the table. He’s on you before you’re halfway across the room and grasps your hand in a firm grip. With subtle pressure he guides you out of the restaurant. As you allow him to drag you to the parking lot, his lips brush your ear.
“I’m going to make damn sure you don’t have enough brain cells to think about hunting skills for a long time, Princess.”
2. Lloyd flirts with someone to make Princess jealous.
If this happened, Princess would be irritated. But in the interest of managing Lloyd’s behavior she realizes if she rewards him with the reaction he wants - i.e., jealousy, this will make the situation worse. She gives him the cold shoulder instead. He wants passion and rage, so she crafts the response of an ice queen.
This won’t go over well. When he realizes she isn’t paying attention, Lloyd would approach her and move the situation into a direct confrontation.
Did you see him with that woman? Things are going well, he’s considering taking her home.
Princess knows a bait question when she sees it. She tosses back the rest of her drink and raises an eyebrow.
“Do you expect me to be jealous?”
Lloyd’s nostrils flare.
She smirks. “You know what? I am jealous. I’m jealous that when we got involved, you did a much better job of picking a partner than I did.”
3. Lloyd is genuinely trying to pick someone up.
If Lloyd was genuinely trying to pick up another woman, Princess would be really hurt. She’d initially look for another explanation and try to evaluate his actions in context, and compare them with the woman’s response. But when she can’t rationalize them, she’d turn away. There’s no clearer signal of a lack of interest than going after someone else.
If confronted about the situation, she would be honest about her feelings and she’d tell him what she saw that hurt her. Lloyd’s response would go one of two ways. First, he might be shocked and speechless. Secondly, he could repay her honesty with equal truth, and explain that he wanted to gain her attention and make her jealous. Princess has never seen this streak of insecurity in Lloyd before, but she would hear him out. She would listen to his feelings and try to identify what prompted his behavior. Then she would reassure him she’s only interested in him and there’s no reason for him to whip up her jealousy. However… if he’s going to play on her emotions, she won’t tolerate it for long. He has to know what he dislikes, what scares him, what he’s comfortable with, and how he wants to be treated. She can handle boundaries. But she knows better than to allow someone with Lloyd’s personality to manipulate her emotions.
Even after prison, and therapy, and committing to being a different person, Lloyd still has a Machiavellian streak in him which has the potential to be very dangerous. Princess loves Lloyd. At the same time, she knows who he is. When it comes down to it, she knows she has to manage her own feelings and resist his games to keep their relationship healthy.
