I sense a fellow Jhariah enjoyer. thank u for your tags :). a lot of Jhariah’s songs remind me of leo, like bigshot [How come they don't ever call back to me? Will I ever know you're close or die waiting for your attention?]
and split [And if that is not enough to make me who I want to be, leave me here and let me be]
and re concerns OF COURSE. it is so full of ire and self hatred. i treat it both as conversation between leo and his future self and between leo and his brain bugs. any form of leo on leo violence is welcomed. i am so normal about this song i drew multiple things for it. no god could abandon him enough times
throws my hands into the air in a cheer FELLOW JHARIAH FAN !!!!!! dude i agree So Much ive already got like five jhariah songs on the leo playlist (flight of the crows is my number one but maybe later dance is my second fav for him) but i have a problem where i jam too hard to jhariah songs and the lyrics dont process bc Bad Auditory Processing so ive somehow missed all the ones youve pointed out WHICH !! IS ALSO A GOOD THING THOUGH im pumped as hell to dig into those knowing you hear leo in them Omg
NO GOD COULD ABANDON HIM ENOUGH TIMES AUGGHFH EXACTLY !!!!!!! leo on leo violence means things to me for system leo reasons <- projector extraordinaire but also its just so. truly genuinely an integral part of who he is. so of course its a conversation between every version of leo and himself, because what version of him wouldnt want to drown him in rightful guilt?
also. ALSO. COMPARING HKM TO A PARASITIC BIRD OUHHH EXACTLY !! to be so useless and harmful you do nothing except steal energy. except parasites have a role in the circle of life and etc etc the bawling into my hands insisting he can be good and loved part of the story that finds its way into every part of my writing WORKFKJ
tysm for sending a fun little ask by the way !! i was so surprised i never get asks omg. and with recommendations for jhariah songs that fit leo at that!!! peace and love on planet earth i love it here ❤️
okay okay but Consider.... fire4fun for mikey. but frankly leo fits too. it feels so high energy that your blood starts to boil and its how i feel mikey feels during anxiety or big emotions тм. this song feels like a headache and i love it
Become the catalyst, feel the chaos consume me until I consume it
you are sooo right about not processing lyrics in songs, but in jhariahs case when I go and read them it usually only elevates the experience. i really like how dramatic, dynamic and emotional his songs are. he puts his whole soul into them and im normal about it
i like to listen his live recordings too cause they usually even more crazy with that (i highly recommend split. MAN i love split. and flight of the crows. and-)
actually let me just yap about my favorites real quick: the lesson in dramatics is so bitter and at the end dissolves into open visceral despair grggrgrgrr
and change of pace is longing and melancholic, and the great tale of how i ruined it all is so mournful and resigned, and bad luck! is cool as hell (and also has this part at the end that feels like a different song completely. love when it happens. "thank you for enduring me as long as you did")
and whose eye is it anyway??? has very radchorus change each time and feels like battle music (when you seek vengeance you must dig two graves!)
i mentioned bigshot previously and its my second favorite song for leo, cause. big talk, big shot. he got raveled up in a tangle of did-nots dude /goes insane
this is getting rather long. i usually dont send asks but its my favorite music artist and i cannot contain myself :) yay. thank you for indulging me. and your commentary about my art is very sweet ///
ill use this opportunity to show my jhariah stuff that otherwise wont ever see the light of day
this one is another re concerns post
and this one is oc related but might as well put everything into one place
well i think i gotta go and i dont know why. but i need you to promise that you wont cry. cause you'll be fine and so will i :>
Collab with @vulstare, who drew the BG, Donnie, and Raph, while I drew Leo and Mikey.
A yokai got them with a babel tower beam, but its all romance languages
🇮🇹 That's nonsense, I should be talking to them. The notable differences between the various Spanish dialects could create confusion and take us to a dead end. Italian is clearer.
🇲🇽 No idiot! Italian isn’t as known, it’s a safer shot to bet on them knowing Spanish.
🇮🇹 Fucking hell, you're an imbecile
🇲🇽 Up yours, man
🇧🇷 What is happening?
🇷🇴 Fuck! :D
Hi, i come with some rottmnt Triceraton observations and headcanons. This will be a mess of a text since its a recreation of my ramblings as i connected dots.
As precedent, I hope you all know about the one screenshot with the krang on a triceraton throne. If not, then here you go.
WOW big. Other than this, I didnt know any other trike shots in Rise at the time.
I was watching this video on the history of the trikes in the tmnt iterations. It was very interesting! If you watched tmnt03, then you get the gist of mirage, but the exception that Mirage later explores it more and introduces other trikes that seem to be based on other triceratops species. I recommend the watch.
Anyway, in this video, I see another shot of the Rise trike throne.
omfg i didnt know ther was another shot of the trike the krang has- WAIT AMINUTE
THAT SHIT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS STRAPS ON ITS SHOULDERS, LIKE DONNIE
BRO IT LIGHTS UP BY KRANG'S COMMAND
NOW, I'm a fan of some bad future shenanigans where Donnie stays as the technodrome pilot, stuck and fused to its fleshy controls, much like Mituna from Homestuck cough cough.
(ex. @pinetreevillain's donnie, and homestuck)
I'm just thinking that this is how that triceraton is there. It's dead, maybe half dead, and its brain, or even just whatever mystics it may have, is the technodrome.
(Which would mean that Donnie connecting to the technodrome might've connected to the trike as well?)
Having seen tmnt12, i know that the krang and the trikes there have a war going on. And with the trike head being displayed and sat on like a throne, I'm thinking there was a similar battle in Rise. That maybe the prison dimension in Rise is some old battlefield of the Krang vs Trikes. Or maybe the trike's garbage disposal. What if the trikes helped humans imprison them there with the key! What if the key is trike technology!
GODAMMIT THAT LOOKS LIKE A TRIKE FACE
But then why are humans credited as the banishers of the krang?
I wonder if the trikes had the technology but didn't have enough strategy? resources? power? to execute it.
Maybe they needed earth mystics? Though the krang has a way to disable it.. Then again the krang are usually the fandom's origin to mystics? Cause of the Empyrean. It's responsible for originally mutating the Yokai.
What if the krang made the Kuroi Yoroi to turn humans to their side...
What if that is how the krang caught that giant trike. A deal with a mystic armor, that ended up sucking its soul and making a new entity, for the krang to control.
theres trike shit in the foreground, attached to the chains, HOLDING THE SHREDDER BACK
This, along with Karai's soul/ninpo, is imprisoning the shredder in season 1!!
From the wiki:
"Approximately one thousand years prior to current day, the Krang attempted an invasion of Earth." "Five hundred years before the events of the series, the Kuroi Yōroi was worn by a leader of a clan called the Foot, Oroku Saki, after making a deal with an alien being in desperation to save his clan."
At least 500 years of war??
... Ok hear me out.
The history of triceratons video i mentioned at the start, mentions that the trikes were created inspired by samurai in the real world. Now, they dont have a source listed, but let's assume this is true.
Samurai were a thing from around 1000 to 500 years ago. Roughtly from the Heian period (700 - 1180 AD) to the Sengoku period (1467-1457). At least the traditional samurai we know of. 1586 and onwards, up to 1853 the samurai way basically died out.
That's a lot like the Krang's first attempt of invasion, as a catalyst. And in the end, the birth of the Shredder.
Trikes.. being a reference to samurai... in rise..... like they might not be actual stand ins to samurai in the Rise universe, but the years/eras match so uh, most likely inspired. Drawn parallels even.
I do wonder how all this came to be though. If trikes were involved, were they aliens to the Rise world, or were they part of Yokai kind? If they were Yokai, did they leave Earth? Became foreign to their own home? It would be interesting to play with this, with them being native, considering they're straight up triceratops. Even more if one were to implement Mirage ideas where there are other ceratopsians represented in their midst. Would they still have mystics? Would their culture have forgotten? Would they resent the krang keeping one of theirs as a tool? Would they be hostile? I wonder.
I brought triceratons back to rottmnt and back to earth and while they don’t seem to be hostile towards humanity, their behavior is rather shady. I wonder what is that all about
weeklymagmas had the “albums and music videos” theme so I redrew The Buttress - Brutus album cover :]
donnies mask changes its design from art to art but I think I can finalise this finestrae position. for now.
while mask is a real bone, it’s made of pieces of different skulls and is being held together by thoughts and prayers
My whole life, you were a teacher and friend to me, Please know my actions are not motivated only by envy.
I chose to redraw Daft Punk RAM, Trigun the first donuts (OST), and Jeanette Porque te vas.
On the Daft Punk album, the original has the masks being silver on the left and gold on the right. Since donnie’s is silver in the episode, i switched them up and gave gold to mikey, overall fits him better too. Also callback to my fashion theme drawing.
Ive always loved the Trigun OST album art. Augh the color combo and the pose are so good. I was between choosing normal donnie or bird donnie. While more complicated, i went with bird because it gave me his wings and tail to play with, where the original’s art used fluttering fabric i could use these instead! and! harsh shading to balance out the white. the original uses the character’s black leather clothes to do this, so i was left with having to add many shadows, which turned out great! And ofc i needed the gun.
For Porque Te Vas, i really wanted to pick a hispanic album, something I grew up with maybe. I had a few to pick from but ultimately the crow silhouette (drawn by @vulstare, thank you!) and clipped picture on it called to me. And! a cover of this song has been memed and popularized, meanwhile i think the original fits way better to what people are trying to convey. So i'm griping about it lmao by using it here. Have adult but disillusioned donnie with teen and worried leo for this one, from a certain au :)c
Collab piece from this weekend's magma over at @weeklymagmas!
@theartsybat had a super sick limited palette plan, and @vulstare and I joined in to make a 4 panel woven piece together full of magic and hard contrast lighting! It turned out awesome.
Donnie was done by Bat, Mikey by Vul, and I did the Leo and Raph bookends
