ive talked about this before but im really of the opinion that self harm scars (and healed scars in general, really) should Not be given content warnings. they are a physical trait of the body that many people have, and it's honestly kind of fucked up to imply there's something inherently triggering or upsetting about someone having them at all.

what kind of message does it send when you say "depicting this physical trait isn't allowed, and if you do so you should hide it"?

[spiralhouses]

^ THIS . YEAH. EXACTLY.

[tiniesttinsel]

Hope you don't mind me rambling on here but this post reminded me of someone and I figured I'd share?

I've been taking a model drawing class for like 5 years now and we've had a great variety of models, because 1. anyone's welcome and 2. it's much more valuable to learn to draw from observation when you get models of different genders, ages and body types, rather than only looking at an "ideal" body.

One of them is a girl whose (non-English) name translates to Victory and she is, in my humble artist's opinion, very beautiful! She's tall, has soft features but a stronger nose, a really cool tattoo on her chest, and also, her forearms are stacked with scars.

None of us have ever made a deal out of this, even if the 15 of us are -to put it bluntly- staring at her in the nude for 3 hours and taking in every detail to put it to paper. Those healed scars don't make her any more or less beautiful, they make her Victory. When I first noticed them I felt a slight sadness for the Victory of the past but mostly a lot of admiration for the present Victory, posing for an art class with nothing to be ashamed of.

People who think scars can't be shown/are gross/inherently triggering need to check themselves because any victory over your past struggles is worth it. I'm adding a drawing below the cut, just because I feel like her likeness deserves to be seen without actually like... having a photo of her spread without her consent, of course.

Nobody can tell me this woman is not beautiful

Recently completed commission for @tiniesttinsel of their character Callisto. I'm thrilled with how this came out, thank you for giving me such a cool OC to draw!!

I take commissions like this on Ko-Fi! Feel free to DM me with questions.

[tiniesttinsel]

My ladyyyyyy!!

Thanks so much again! <3 She has never looked better (or happier, I need to give her a break from scowling all the time)

This game, about listing as many animals as you can, is shockingly well-considered and polished for such an apparent shitpost of a game idea

hot new brain workout

[tiniesttinsel]

Okay yeah this is fun

Didn't do great though c':

https://rose.systems/animalist

77 animals listed

Because why did I list 4 separate kinds of snake and 10 birds but didn't think of like. A cow

[utopians]

okay, I’ll bite. What’s media

[akumeoy]

media is when one guy is chasing another with a knife but a tv camera zooms in so it looks like the guy with the knife is being attacked by the guy who’s actually running away. that’s media.

[utopians]

Christ that’s fucked up. Is anyone doing anything about this?

[somethingusefulfromflorida]

No no no, Media is when a comedian dresses up as an old lady for a series of unfunny straight-to-dvd-bargain-bin movies in the 2000s and 2010s.

[inthefallofasparrow]

No, that’s ‘Madea’. Media is when a woman takes vengeance on her ex-husband Jason, by murdering his new wife, his father-in-law, and her own children in cold blood.

[tiniesttinsel]

Wait no that's 'Medea'

I'm pretty sure Media is that centuries old drink made by fermenting honey and adding water, maybe some fruit or spices if you're feeling funky

Day 27: Pumpkin shark

So I realized today I kinda messed up with the days, there's supposed to be a lil extra time in between the three last ones but well. I only saw so on the prompt list this morning :')

SO! I just figured I'd post this assortment of pumpkins today and then keep the final prompt for the final day of the month! I have to admit I was kinda head empty for this one, and as much as I like the first one I drew in the middle, pumpkin spice coffee shark may be my personal fav

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 25: Shark blacksmith

I'll admit this one's less detailed/fleshed out than I would've wanted, but time is really creeping up on me with these last ones :')

If there's one thing I love though it's making lil character designs, so I might just do her more justice in future drawings! As derpy as she looks, I've gotten kinda fond of her c:

Day 23: Shark tavern

As much as I loved the vision in my head of a cozy shark tavern interior, I only had the time and spoons for one (1) tavern wench, a well-meaning puffer and several finfuls of sea sponges in a corset

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 21: Solarpunk shark

Mola mola truly are the solar panels of the sea huh

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 19: Ethereal shark

I got to thinking about shark ghosts and realized the Netherlands are probably full of them, with how much of the western part of it used to be under water-

Featuring the ever effervescent moon jelly as well bc I love them

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 17: Shark Totally Regular Sailor Idol

We were without internet yesterday evening so she's a little late, but here's Sharksune Miku :) Be sure to give her lots of applause or she might get bitey :)))

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 15: Cowboy Shark

Won't ya spare a seahaw for a lonesome cowboy (and his 10 nearly identical siblings)?

Turns out the delay wasn't as big as I feared, I had time enough to spare to do some lino printing today and break out the tiny letter stamps :)

It's hella addicting ngl I wanna stamp this guy on everything now, but his debut is the first page of my fresh sketchbook so that ain't bad to begin with

[tiniesttinsel]

I may have to uhh

postpone shark day 15? Because I'm trying something I'm not yet too used to for that prompt? I'll def post it but chances are I'll be posting the next prompt on the 17th and then number 15 sometime afterwards

The shark police better not be on my ass for this

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 13: Shark vs. Mechashark

Guess who forgot to take a picture while there was natural dayliiiight

I decided I wanted to go the Pacific Rim route on this and damn I had a blast drawing a messy-ass kaiju shark And with that, the last page of this sketchbook is filled, so the next sharky will be the first page of a brand new one c:

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 11: Frutiger Aero shark

Nobody look at the date I posted this I forgor

So I had to look up what this prompt meant and doing so led me to this delightful computer mouse which gave me the inspiration I needed :)

If I were a more patient and skilled person I could've made that liquidy lighting work properly with markers but well

[tiniesttinsel]

Interrupting my shark posting to offer congrats to the Nobel Prize winners but to Maria Corina Machado in particular for winning the Nobel Peace Prize, because I'm sick and tired of seeing trumple already claim it as his and people debating whether or not he'll win instead of talking about any of the other possible nominees

He can't even keep his own country in order why the hell should he be lauded for sticking his nose in other countries' issues

I hadn't heard of miss Machado before but I'm glad her efforts were rewarded, I read up about her on the Nobel Prize website here if any of yall wanna have a looksee too

[tiniesttinsel]

Day 9: Angel shark

Edited the top one a lil bit extra (partially bc my one good white gel pen died on me while trying to make the eyes and stars pop RIP) but! No better shark to pick for this one than an actual angel shark, they're cute af
