I figured it’s about time for me to make an introductory post so uh hi! I’m Arctic, but you can also call me Jolyon! Jol works too

They/them pronouns

My current main fandoms are Destiny 2, mcyt (mostly POW smps and The Flight smp), Persona, and Kingdom Hearts

Resident Yusuke Kitagawa liker

my ao3!

My tags:

#arctic’s writing- I tag all my writing with this, so if a certain fic isn’t on my masterpost, it’s probably in there

#arctic’s art- my art tag! 

#arctic’s ocs- I try to put anything related to my ocs in this tag (so asks about them, ask games, etc.)

Individual ocs are tagged with just their name

And that’s pretty much it! Hopefully this makes navigating my blog easier lol

Can't believe that this was pantheon smp foreshadowing that's crazyyy

Transcript below (the automatic subtitles are a little bit wrong)

Owen: That's it

Apo: I think we're getting booted

Cherri: I think we're getting kicked out

Owen: Well not in an offensive way

Cherri: I think Owengejuice doesn't want women on his stream

Owen: Okay, first off, I'm a woman in training-

Cherri and Apo start laughing

Owen: Secondly, I'm eating my dinner

Apo: How does that work? How does that work?

Owen: WIT man

Apo: What?

Owen: Woman in training

Apo: Wait, but- is that something we need to talk about off stream?

Owen: Naaah, let's not unpack this joke

Apo: Oh, when are we talking about POW things?

Owen: POW things?

Cherri: We can do it right now

Owen: Probably like in two weeks-

I'm playing correspondence chess with my brother and don't feel like making a move tonight but wanted to make sure I did it tomorrow, so I wrote "move against brother" in my TODO list before realizing that sounds kind of insane.

[theforsakenprince]

it does make me feel crazy anytime tfpyro mentions the rebels hurting them while they were kidnapped but follows it up with "but they only did that because I fought back so I suppose I deserved it" like I need someone to take him by the shoulders and tell him that he was literally kidnapped and he was allowed to fight back and what happened to him was, in fact, fucked up

(tbf I think part of it comes from how long they were captured for and doing what he had to to survive (like having to play nice) and also him trying to convince everyone else (and himself frankly) that he came back fine. Better, even)

I HAVE BEEN GOING NONSTOP

Wah I barely made it in time for the smp release, I don’t know how people were so fast 😭

The hades art style is so gorgeous, though I feel I only managed to capture a small percentage of it

💤 Champion of Dreams 💤

Yeah there aren’t really any good emojis for “dreams” but I’m committing to the format lol

(Process below the break!)

This was another one that I did pretty quickly! I used another statue as a reference for this one and I think I’m gonna keep doing that. It’s a fun exercise in drawing from a reference and understanding how light interacts with shapes. Here’s the statue that I used:

This angle was rather difficult for me to draw, so while my resulting sketch looked fine, it wasn’t quite right yet. This was the sketch:

To find out what was wrong, I took that picture and the reference and I put them on top of each other in Ibis Paint. From there, I sketched the vague proportions of the statue, compared it to my drawing, and knew where I went wrong.

Truthfully, I still don’t think I got the angle quite right in the final piece, but I fixed my problems with the proportions so I’m happy with that.

I think the angle would have been better executed had I started the hairline a little higher

But yeah! I did a different shading technique this time for funsies. Drawing Apo’s gorgeous design was such a treat!

I’ve already got ideas cooking from Pearl’s episode today, so more art is soon on the horizon!

It would be so funny if pan!pyro ended up remembering the whole thing and randomly calls scott by his full legal name on a random Tuesday
