I think my favorite thing about the backrooms movie is how much it doesn't hold your hand and over explain things to you. you as an audience member have to figure stuff out on your own via context clues and your own thought process.

It's something I really love to see, because I really love it when a film actually trusts the audience to listen and pay attention to the film and actually figure things out.

The film never throws too many questions that it becomes hard to figure out, the movie doesn't overwhelm you with lore and questions (which is also great) but it gives you enough questions for you to start wondering about the backrooms and you should feel about it.

[vaelric]

I loved that the movie didn't really hold my hand, it left me with so many questions! Me and my friends sat in the car on the way home discussing so many things :3

That's why I was surprised when people were complaining that the movie "held the viewers hand too much"??? I was like bro where???

I've seen so many weird takes about this movie honestly

[vaelric]

Gonna start throwing my OCs into the backrooms when they've been naughty

(post inspired after seeing the backrooms movie lmao)

It’s been FOREVER! Over the past few weeks not only did I get consumed playing the new Tomodachi Life but I also caught a two week long sickness AURRR

Alas I must prepare for artfight and bulk out some of my OCs profiles (pls add me so I can attack you RAHHH)

(Super cool bonus: I like to think Felix is loving on Bun behind the camera hehe)

[vaelric]

OH WAIT!!

I posted the timelapse on tiktok too!

I was thinking of all the portraits I’ve drawn of Simon and wanted to do a fully rendered stylised version

Years ago I drew an ultra-realistic portrait of him but I think it’s slowly showing its flaws to me now… you can get away with more with stylisation 😼 and it’s also just generally more appealing

There’s also commission sheet simon… inspiration… precious boy…

[axondrite-ink]

Here’s him as a BABYYYY as well

"And I block out the sun behind the shutters. Can't trust the light, can't trust the heat. I don't know what to do, and it's wearing me down."

Joel, my bad leg buddy. I love him so much so much so much so much.

[vaelric]

Yeah I may be dying with ✨ the sickness ✨ but at least we still have Felix x Mochi doodles

[axondrite-ink]

As per usual I was thinking about the lovely infirmary where Simon gets to go on his silly holiday and I was wondering if you have any songs that I could add to my playlist puhleaaaase

Hiiiii anon,

I have a playlist for this kind of vibe!

(It’s a lot shorter than I’d like though, I fear I’m the one that needs recommendations)

I realised I got too in my own head about this piece and it sat in my drafts for months

Partly based on this song by Billie Eilish

And partly based on this photo from her photoshoot with WSJ Magazine

Social Commentary

This piece was intended as a sort of vent comparison between how Nick and Billie Eilish are treated similarly when exposed to the public.

While Nick has features that could be seen as “misleadingly” older, they’re features that the people around me as well as myself had at his age. Plus there’s the whole thing about him looking similar to other characters in more mainstream media. He’s wayyyy too overheated.

So this brought up a small dilemma: to redesign or not to redesign?

Ultimately, I decided not to (although the temptation to never goes away). I feel that I would be doing the real-world counterparts of this problem a disservice if I changed him. They can’t really redesign themselves, and why should they?

Adding to this, I rarely see male representation of this problem. Women 100% have it worse, but when it happens to men I think it gets swept under the rug or passed off as not that serious (see: Justin Bieber)

Also, I like his design. That should be reason enough.

The Making Of

This took NINETEEN HOURS and seventeen minutes*

I was so done by the time I got onto the background. Despite most of the clutter being photobashed in, it was making me want to tear my hair out.

The phone was originally yellow, like Billie’s.

There was also a section where I decided to colour the whole piece, but it looked so abysmal and unnatural I switched back to B+W. I’m not even going to show a picture of that because it looks so bad.

The finished version is not actually true black and white, it’s overlayed with a slightly soft dusty blue to contrast the red text.

*most of my pieces take 10 hours or less on average.

Note: this was written long before my recent Age Up? poll so you can tell this subject’s been on my mind for a long time.

Also: much of Billie Eilish’s discography lines up weirdly well with the Hawaii: Part II EU, especially with Nick, so if you want more of that in depth I’ll happily oblige!
