Welcome to my blog! 🤍

I’m a self-taught artist and passionate hobbyist who loves creating (digital) fanart.

You can check out my work under my art-tag #artbythorod on Tumblr or find me on Instagram under @artbythorod. If you‘re interested, you can purchase my art prints on INPRNT or RedBubble. I also occasionally write fanfiction, which you can read on AO3 under @thatordinaryoddity. All links below.

Thank you for supporting my creative journey! I’m thrilled to share my art with you.

some stursia smut for pluribus week day 5 (nsfw version under the cut)

[thatordinaryoddity]

unhived!Zosia has exactly zero chill when mango ice cream is involved…

based on this meme: x

In other words… it’s already the 16th where I am which means happy @pluribusweek!! I’m so excited to finally start sharing what I’ve been working on.

you were 16, beginning to understand yourself…

(my thoughts under the cut)

I rewatched Pluribus for the second time and have a lot of feelings about Carol, her youth, and camp Freedom Falls… and how it all affected her adult life, too. The whole “we can fix you” narrative… it’s brutal and I think even when the details don’t match exactly, most of us queer people can identify with this kind of story in one way or another 💔

And yeah, I couldn’t resist wondering: what if Raban was inspired by Carol‘s childhood sweetheart before everything forced a different path? Not canon, probably, but I tucked a few easter eggs in anyway of a girl called R…..

here’s chapter 2 of my shameless smut— ahem, I mean missing scene interpretation of S1EP8 “Charm Offensive“

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Little teaser:

Zosia’s fingers found her spine, stroking slow, soothing lines from the nape of her neck all the way down to the dimples just above her ass. “What part, exactly?"

Carol huffed a bitter little laugh against Zosia’s skin. “Pick a card… any card. The entire planet turned into one big smiling cult. Me getting laid after jerking off to memories that hurt more than they help. You–” She swallowed, throat clicking. “You being here, like this, when we both know the Others probably sent you to seduce the last stubborn fool who won’t join the party. The whole menu’s poisoned and I’m still licking the plate.”

having thoughts about masc!Carol …

I don't want to be an a hole but whenever I see your Stursia art my brain tells me it's AI. I don't care if you use it tbh but if it is your natural style perhaps change the color a bit? I don't know it looks like Ai to me. I could be wrong tbh.

I’m very sorry to say this but you’re definitely being a bit of an a-hole right now, anon! If you feel the need to critique someone’s process or throw out allegations like that, at least have the courage to do it from your real account! You don’t get to anonymously tell artists how to color their work! Sorry but this upsets me a lot!

I generally don’t believe in creating a culture where artists constantly have to prove themselves. However, for transparency’s sake and since this is my first AI allegation, here we go, I guess…

Here’s a vid of my 76 (!) layers of my latest drawing, the time I spent on it, additional screenshots of other fanarts (only one vid allowed per post), and I also literally shared a speed drawing of my lineart on Instagram yesterday! Also, I have ten years of traditional art experience, with proof of that as well. That’s not exactly something you can fake with AI…

Oh, and… good for you (?!) if you “don’t care“ if someone uses AI but I certainly do. I even incorporated that sentiment into one of my recent drawings. Fuck AI!

happy v-day 💕
