The lines trace me on moving water, and call the ripples laws. Whilst, the goals forge stillness out of motion, then kneel before the cause. We name the stars for comfort, though they burn beyond our scheme—their chaos wears a pattern woven only in my dream. Red roots spiral without reason, winds wander without aim. Yet I sketch their restless motion, and call that order’s name.
Perhaps the universe hums random, and I am its hopeful fandom—an artist's chime—upon the static field of time. @elgnart
I was going to do a few quick practice sketches before starting on one of the speedpaints. But fool twas I, for now I'm just trying to figure out how to make heads or tails out of these horns LMAO, I swear in half of the reference images they just look flat, and in the other half they look bulky and rounded.
The references I have are a bit inconsistent from one another. I'm halfway tempted to make a 3D mannequin reference, partially to keep myself from getting confused, but also because I remember that leg shape kinda throwing me off before.
I don’t normally post personal stuff on tumblr but I wanted people to see this. On the 30th of November I’m running a 5k in London. I’m doing this for a charity called CHIVA, they are a HIV and AIDS charity that work with young people living with HIV. There’s still 103,000 people in the UK living with HIV, any donations and shares would be really appreciated.
Had some Medabots feels all of a sudden, and got the urge to write down all of my headcanons for connecting the original series and Spirits together (because I adore the latter and refuse to apologize for it), plus some other fun thoughts.
(underneath a cut because I have no idea when to stop writing)
- Arc-Dash’s medal is a First Medal clone of Metabee’s- essentially making him Metabee’s clone brother, or clone son. When Metabee and Arc-Dash learn of this, Metabee never. Lets. Him. Live. This. Down.
- Likewise, Roks is a First Medal Clone of Rokusho
- Kam used to attend Rosewood Academy. He never really fit in, and was one of the only kids in the entire school to not have a medabot. After the events of first series finale (specifically the whole giant robot fight in the middle of the flippin’ city), most of the rich families pulled their kids out of the school and moved away, as the neighborhood had become a wee bit… dangerous since then. Rosewood Academy was forced to close down soon after (thus, Rosewood was the school Eddie was referring to in the second to last episode)
- Koji and Karin’s families were among the rich families who decided to move away, thus explaining their absence from Damashii.
- Before they moved, Koji hired Henry on as a butler, as the latter was trying to reinvent himself after all the chaos of the first series caused him to spill many of the beans in regards to his secrets. When Koji moved, so did Henry.
- Zuru is a TOTAL Phantom Renegade fanboy, and based his Mystery Medafighter persona off of him.
- The big robattle tournament Ginkai and Bayonet were gearing up to compete in was none other than the World Robattle Tournament. They were both stressing over it, which caused their tempers to flare- which resulted in the big argument, and Ginkai burying Bayonet’s medal in the backyard. Had they not had the argument, Ginkai and Bayonet would’ve most certainly made it into the top 10, at least.
- Zuru had to work very, very hard to make sure he didn’t make it into the top 10. He really didn’t want the attention or the pressure, since he was busy training to destroy Kilobots. Unfortunately, his strategy of trying to come off as chump would attract a lot of would-be robattlers eager to get an easy increase in score, forcing Zuru to have strategically escape and win certain robattles so his poor Gorem-2 didn’t get too damaged.
- Metabee, and by extension all Medabots with rare medals (including first medals), have this weird ability where their mere presence brings out common medabots’ personalities. For instance, prior to meeting Metabee, Brass was a very robotic individual. She was more of Erika’s assistant/maid, and didn’t really have a personality of her own (especially evident in the way she would always address her master as “Miss Erika”). After hanging around Metabee for a while, however, Brass began to get more assertive, and her relationship with Erika changed. She started to form her own opinions, and treated Erika more as a friend and surrogate sister. Eventually, by Damashii, Brass had developed enough of a personality to be willing and able to argue with Erika, and scold her when she thought Erika was stepping over the line. Erika likes her much better this way.
- Oddly enough, Blakbeetle has this same effect on other Kilobots, weirdly enough. Even though they lack personalities like her, Blakbeetle still insists on treating kilobots like individuals (at least after patching things up with Kam). Ginkai can’t help but notice that the Kilobots Blakbeetle hangs out with seem to develop more of a spirit…
- Blakbeetle and Redrun are also totally murder buddies, if only by virtue of both being Kilobots with personalities. Blakbeetle also understands Redrun on a more… visceral level, than anyone else.
- Totalizer still checks in on Fossilkat from time to time.
Sky has made a documentary called positive, This timing malarkey is good because I sent out a network email yesterday and got to 50% in one night....... I would love to make the other 50% or should I dare to dream, even surpass that come on guys I'm begging you to share the information to support me I'm going to do this. If it's £30 great if it's a fiver I am thankful so that many more other people who wouldn't be able to run but would benefit from this charity would be too ....🙏🏿 Am sure some of you have seen shows like Pose and It’s a Sin, where HIV/AIDS changed the course of people lives and left families in great pain, due to shame, ignorance’s and blame, thankfully we have mostly moved past those fearful times, where people live their lives authentically without the fear dying because of the person they love. With that said help, I protect others by sponsoring me on a charity run where I'll be running or walking...... Yeah, am fundraising for PrEPster who are partnered with Positive East... I've only raised 50% of £1,000 then I will...... I'm sure I could get a little bit more of you, after all, it is a good charity. Celebrate my 42 years on this planet, which I am grateful for the good and bad times otherwise I will not be the same person I am today. Some of you know I have a good heart and I'm abundant with love for myself first so that I can help others find the same kind of love and abundance for themselves. PrEP: Pre-exposure prophylaxis is the use of medications used to prevent the spread of disease in people who have not yet been exposed to a disease-causing agent, usually a virus. The term typically refers to the specific use of antiviral drugs as a strategy for HIV/AIDS prevention.
