oh gosh:

when Taako was like this in the beginning I just imagined a reaction from Angus. 

Found family, guys. I can’t resist even if I tried.

I have more spoiler-y art from the most recent episode but I’ll be posting it tomorrow so hang tight!

[Image description: a comic of Taako and Angus from The Adventure Zone, colored in shades of blue. Taako’s a fat elf with short wavy hair and medium tone skin, while Angus is a skinny human boy with dark skin and short curly hair.

Taako has a neutral, maybe bored or tired expression when Angus appears behind him and asks: “Sir?”

As Angus pulls himself into a chair at the table, Taako replies: “Hm? Ah, Ango my boy. Haha, what’s up in that ol’ dome of yours?”

Angus says: “Well… A lot has happened. Especially in regards to your memories.”

Taako replies: “Hah. Yeah, you said it, buddy…”

Angus continues: “I won’t pretend that I understand everything… And I’m glad you got your sister back…”

Taako snaps: “Look, kid, if you’re gonna try and defend the Director, save —”

Angus interrupts: “Let me finish!” and Taako obliges. Angus goes on: “I understand the Director hurt you… I won’t tell you how to feel. But… what you said. About having nothing left.”

Taako looks surprised as Angus tells him: “Sir, please know that we’re your family too! Killian, Carey, Avi, everyone! We’re all here for you! That can’t make up for everything you have lost or all the pain that you —”

He stops talking as Taako hugs him. Laughing and crying, Taako says: “Geez Ango, do you know how many times I say things without thinking?”

Angus, also tearing up and smiling, says: “Too many times, sir…”

The last panel cuts to a picture of Taako and Angus’s hats resting next to each other, as Taako says: “Of course you’re all my family…” End description.]

the righteous gemstones is so funny and then it has this david cronenberg visual for one scene

I know I shouldn’t be so upset about this but it pisses me off when people use the term “asexual” to describe a lack of romantic attraction or just assuming all asexuals lack romantic attraction because for me it’s like using the term “lactose intolerant” to describe an allergy to polyester.

idk how to flirt but i can make things awkward if you're into that

Breakin' bread

here you go righteous gemstones fans

The finished result! I’m so ridiculously proud and pleased with how it turned out!

This was an ordinary door + 3 pieces of mdf board. I carved and sculpted them with my dremel multitool, inspired by the carvings I saw in Bali, mounted them and then painted and sanded the whole thing in several layers before adding a final tint of gold. 💙

The door and side panel I sculpted myself. The top carving is from Bali.

This popped up on my activity page, getting notes again for some reason! :D

Damn, I miss doing things like this… I really should try to get around to setting up a proper workshop in the garage this spring, and see if I can get back into the groove.

WOW!!!!!

You are clearly an extremely focused and PATIENT person.  Even considering tackling something like this would give me a nervous breakdown requiring hospitalization.

I second the nervous breakdown…nope…you are amazing!

Thank you!

But also, it’s actually not that time consuming? Each of these panels took only a few hours to sketch and carve, I made one/day. And then mounting everything and doing the first layer of paint one day, sanding and second layer another day, and more sanding and final highlights and gold the third day.

I am in fact a very impatient person! If it hadn’t been fast, I could never have done it. 😂

Here’s another door I made; I cut out and carved the whole panel in… one day? Two? It was pretty fast at any rate!

And then I got as far as painting and sanding/distressing the paint in three layers, and adding highlights to 75% of it… and then I got adhd-tired of it and never finished the last few highlights or added gold. XD

It’s still pretty, though!

I realized I never actually shared the finished-finished result, with the door handles mounted!

I bought these two beautiful bronze-green seahorse handles on Bali several years ago (along with several bronze dragonflies of various kinds used as towel hooks and general decorations in the bathroom itself).

We bought a bronze patina lock from a local hardware store to match, and I covered the remaining hole with another lotus carving.

It’s been years, but seeing this door every time I head to take a bath or shower still makes me smile. I love it so much. 🥰

Would you ever consider making a tutorial? This is amazing!

Thank you! I actually have made one! You can find it here. 💚

It only covers the woodcarving and a simple fake stain paint, not the layered paint and distressing technique + gold I used on this door, but it shows how I work with my dremel. :)
