Anonymous asked:

Are you ever gonna go back to writing jjba on ao3? Honestly I keep rereading all of them to this day and your writing is the best thing I’ve ever come across to.

Hey, Anon! I really appreciate that ur reading my fics even now (and re-reading, too??), honestly... way more than I can say <3 I wish I had a better answer for you though. I'd honestly love to go back to writing for JoJo, but my heart's really with OC stuff these days (oc x canon) and I, frankly... can't convince myself my ideas are worth writing even just for me. U know, perpetual battle against non-existent self esteem? hahaha I won't promise anything but DO know I think about it quite often, and I really miss being invested in JoJo like I used to be tbh! So again: the interest is extremely appreciated, I'm just sorry I can't give a more positive answer ^^;

#anon ask#reply#i so badly wish I could just say 'maybe someday!' but like... I haven't sat down and rewatched JoJo in like 3 years#it's not to say I don't have interest in it - it's just like... my brain's really dumb and I don't go back to things I used to love#I really can't explain it cuz it makes zero sense even to me - BUT ANYWAY I'm so happy those older fics are enjoyable to others!#I know I deleted a couple and I think about deleting them at times because I feel terrible for not keeping up on it#but I really mean it from the bottom of my heart - thank you for reaching out to even tell me this <3#maybe this should serve as a cautionary tale about trying to sure u have a healthy relationship with ur own art/writing#mine's def been going downhill and it gets harder and harder to write all the time as a result because everything has to be 'better'#it has to be 'perfect' it HAS to do 'well' and like... at the end of the day I SHOULD be writing for JUST me and I'm just... not.. you know#and all I end up with is expectations Im putting on myself that are literally unachievable and it's sapping all the joy out of it#but i am tangenting and rambling in the tags oh dear - AGAIN I LOVE AND APPRECIATE U AND UR KIND WORDS ANON <3#like I am going to be thinking about this ask for the next month at least I stg tysm

Disney couples concept art ➔ Final film 

#it is 7am i need to sleep but LOOK AT HOW GOOD MEG LOOKS IN THAT CONCEPT ART HOLY MOLY#like I still like her in the movie too don't get me wrong.... but that nose and chin tho....... so good#i really like the storybook vibe to the little mermaid art too! its so soft and dreamy#i love seeing these comparisons - not for comparison's sake but also just to see how stuff comes to be as we know it#like without seeing other concept sketches you can p much visualize how it progressed over time#IT'S SO NEAT - ART IS SO COOL#PEOPLE MADE THIS AND POURED TIME AND EFFORT AND HEART INTO IT AND MADE IT 'REAL'#they made it MOVE AND TALK AND SING AND DANCE#...also im just now noticing aladdin's jojo-lookin top there and im having a hoot - i wonder why that was the choice#jasmine's look is essentially the same just with a colour change and some accessories added#...the beast having a baboon head makes me wonder though... lolol

gotta be my most depressed Dark Souls protag (DS1), but Anora deserves to have a lil happiness nonetheless, gosh dang it

#myart#sketch#fanart#oc#artists on tumblr#art#dark souls#dark souls oc#chosen undead#3 guesses which character is the one who brightens her day the most 8)#anyway brb im still trying to talk myself out of an indulgent DS1/DS3 crossover fic for r e a s o n s :)#the shading is weird yes i know don't @ me - I drank coffee at midnight last night and this was the product of that LMAO

i gave my Ashen One (Anetta) an actual custom (as in, mixed & matched) outfit for this second playthrough, except I still immediately ditched it the moment I was able to get the Dancer armour lmao

something about that cool-tinted silver look with the blue sheer veil really vibes well for me with a DEX build, idk man ... however it is insanely taxing to draw, so I guess that's the tradeoff :')

#delete later#myart#sketch#oc#artists on tumblr#art#fanart#(kind of)#dark souls 3#ds3#not that anyone cares but the outfit was default sellsword helm and gauntlet + brigand chest + fallen knight legs lolol#also there is literally ZERO ref of the Brigand outfit on a woman character and it made me so mad for like 5 seconds lmao#how dare u make me launch the game to JUST take reference pictures????#(and since its on ps4 i can't take crisp images/am taking pics of my TV so it's extra fun lmao)#anyway im still trying to work up the gumption to write some horrendously self indulgent stuff for Anetta and Anri#feat. my one friend really trying hard to help me stay powered thru it - bless ur heart Mag

merry christmas to all who celebrate and I hope everyone has a wonderful day regardless!

please gaze upon these two panels from a comic I never finished back in 2021 about (Android AU) Dio Brando trying his hand at ERP @ my OC but as a hot santa (spoiler alert: it didn't work)

#delete later#myart#wip#fanart#artists on tumblr#dio brando#1st panel (and the rest of the page u cant see) directly spoofs his Part 3 reveal and it was SO FUN TO DO WTF#im blown away by all the hatching I bothered to do cuz like.... it looks GOOD? Araki really knows what he's doing huh#i love how u can tell it takes a bit of a dive in quality when I wasn't essentially copying existing panels/style lolol

goin back to 2018/19 because I want to rewrite/finish my own fic, smh

it's been kinda nice rewatching the videos I used to, tho... kinda comfy feeling, despite what the games are all about hahaha

#delete later#wip#mortal kombat#myart#i have seen her new design in MK1 (havent *watched* anything from it tho) and it's really good!#I like seeing them branch out in terms of like cultural influence and styles/aesthetics#the amount the games have visually improved since MK9 (which I greatly dislike lol) is INSANE - every game gets me like#“oh wow this looks so good... no way they can do better for the next one” - and then they knock it out of the park YET AGAIN#but I still have a soft spot for MKX Tanya to a degree... partly because of the fic I was writing tho lmao#it's still gonna end up being set in the same timeline it originally was which might be a lil awkward but like...#guess that just happens when u reboot something right? hahaha#im just sorta bummed the guy whose Story mode vids I watched for MK9 MKX and MK11 isn't doing them anymore#so I'll have to find someone else's MK1 story mode vid to watch... RIP

WIP of Vyloris, who is done real dirty by being useless compared to other Hypogean heroes while having one of the coolest designs in the whole game, smh

#delete later#myart#wip#fanart#artists on tumblr#if she wasnt a SG-only build... I would simp build her lmao but I have more self control than that... sort of#anyway can u tell i only *kind of* know how to bullshit shiny metal stuff in the colouring? lol#like only works 50% of the time but im sure this is fine 8) I'LL FIGURE IT OUT#also do u like my strategy of drawing/figuring out most of the drawing THRU the lineart and along the way instead of like...#being planned out properly from the start? :')#half the dang details I keep having to be like “OH right I have to even draw that still” and there's still so much more to go RIP#but im liking how this is turning out so I'm trying to ignore those feelings of... overwhelm-ment??? what even is english tbh

doodle from last night/this morning - in big Bloodborne fanfic brainstorming mode but I also wanna pull a FROMSOFT and just insert one of my jerkass OCs into everything without elaborating on it... it just is a thing, lmao

but also realized as I sketched from reference that the Choir set really has next to no wiggle room for like..... individuality showing thru it. Guess I have to get better at writing individual characters thru dialogue and actions, huh? smh

#sketch#oc#bloodborne#fanart#the choir#myart#honestly if u can guess which OC of mine this is from this sketch alone... ur wild and also im extremely impressed LOL#anyway i forgot how JUICY it is to sketch with a 2B pencil oh my goodness#now I know why I did it so much when I drew on paper more back in high school lmaoooo

gonna try to be self-indulgent to fight depression, wish me luck boys

#myart#oc#artists on tumblr#art#original character#sketch#delete later#(cuz i may wake up later and hate this but this is the first doodle I haven't hated in a WHILE so...)#my 'self indulgent' idea is basically just her hooking up with DIO in a pre-Part 3 setting (at LAST)#in a way I have thought about for much too long but always talked myself out of cuz it feels dumb as hell#but I need some shameless self indulgence in my life after feeling so miserable lately SO HERE I AM#(also no i am not elaborating cuz idk if I will share said idea because it feels dumb LOL so extra self indulgent in that only i will know)#anyway sleep now cuz it's 8am and my sleep schedule is basically destroyed but im sure this is fine#oh also the gold lipstick was v inspired by a very stunning woman who did an ASMR RP for The Mummy and she wore gold lipstick I loved a lot#asmr really unlocks the raging bi within me to a new degree it's great

tfw u think "hehe i'll just play a little Puzzle Kombat before going to bed and it'll be a nice relaxing time :)" and then shit gets real on round 5 (thanks, Nightwolf) ...and then you later realize the difficulty was on EASY THE WHOLE TIME oh my god why am I so bad at tetris-style games

#delete later#mortal kombat deception#oh how i missed thee and thou's weirdness lmao#it's a lot jankier than I remembered but also... still got Mileena's combos memorized hehe#also between this and ppl having been giving my old fanfic Tanya designs some attention... making me nostalgic#im still not gonna finish that fic mind u cuz like... I never had enough plot from the start to do that lmao#BUT THIS IS FINE we can pretend I didn't abandon it right? :')#there's at least one difficulty below easy but........ this is a matter of pride now hahaha I CAN'T GO TO NOVICE or i guess...#maybe JUST for puzzle kombat I could lol - I appreciate how they split up the difficulty levels for it at least

you know, at this rate my Necromancer numbers amongst my custom heroes are growing in a way that isn't unlike how they can multiply in the actual game... lmao

anyway, WIP of Theodora the Blighted - my human Necromancer who is just blatantly evil all the way thru. Destruction master and Shadowborn adept and as much as I love Mina's design... Theodora has better synergy with the class itself since it leans all-in into Evil hahaha

#delete later#oc#myart#age of wonders 3#artists on tumblr#wip#I have an idea I wanna play with so bad of ppl cooperating WITH a Necromancer purely to deal with a second more evil one lmao#AND YOU CAN PRY THE IDEA OF THERE BEING DEBATABLY “”“OKAY”“” NECROMANCERS FROM MY cold dead hands#tfw this was originally just a warm-up and I just straight-up didn't stop working on it all day and now it is an actual thing#I'm toying with Theodora's “title” stemming from ppl just straight-up judging her like a book by it's cover#like she's still evil don't get me wrong but the fact she may be “the Blighted” because of her actions OR her scars is kinda funny to me id#anyway that's not her character's actual BG i just needed better lighting because oh my god I could NOT interpret the darker refs properly#some of the lighting on the backgrounds is INSANELY TERRIBLE in this game please tell me im not alone in this
