btw i showed my gf my latest wip because i remembered her recently asking if i ever did line art and wanting to see, and she gave me a very specific bewildered sort of Expression and explained that 'recently' was actually Three Years Ago. she asked three years ago.

Ok so I think at this point we can all agree that Edelgard did absolutely nothing wrong. Yeah?
I had the immense pleasure of putting together an illustration for this new australian Magazine, very humbled that that @serrels.bsky.social and @jacksonwryan.com chose me to scribble on their first cover.
Please consider backing local australian journalism. there are stories here worth telling.
If youβve ever engaged with media in Australia, time to put your money where your mouth is.
We NEED a cultural voice & we need to support our incredible journalists that we are beyond spoiled to have and have taken for granted for too long.
Back this immediately and ensure its future.
edelgard did nothing wrong ever in her entire life.
thank you for listening to my ted talk.
its good to bite your girlfriend
Rediscovered this graph I made and I stand by it.
There's been a new development to this PlayStation surge pricing story that's been floating around, which I don't think has been widely reported yet:
The US is now involved the test, and what's more, they get their own special trial that experiments with price HIKES as well as discounts.
hell im IN the community and i get confused sometimes
vsynth has always been incredibly insular thats never changed and it wont change if we dont have patience w people who r only just now understanding miku is an instrument and not "from anime"
i get the vocal synth community is passionate but cmon not every person outside the community needs to do like a 2hr comprehensive deep dive when talking abt us. probably shouldn't actually it would get confusing for general audiences quick
when someone advertises their fanfic by typing like an idiot this is a very good sign the fanfiction will be very eloquent and cleverly written. trust me
everyone is posting about women day but its women day every day for me and also. yesterday. because time zones
anyway. take this as my most recent contribution to women regardless

im still so exhausted and really struggling to do much energy wise, but having something for my future to work towards again is nice β¨οΈ
a funny anecdote is the fact that i started going by dan specifically bc i thought it was androgynous, but as soon as i did i noticed people would read my name and then get shocked when i wasnt a man
how i acidentally joined the age old tradition of "butch lesbian with a man's name", lol
also when ive been good my girlfriend calls me a good dan and i like that :]
mine was just a nickname at first. then it became my actual name π
i can't see myself as anything other than a dan now. the fact theres 6 billion other dans in this world is the point; it affords me a lil bit of anonymity/lets my actions & my art be the thing ppl remember me by.

im not a 3d expert (like literally, i am at uni right now for this exact thing lol) but if i had to take a swing, its almost like they used a realistic lighting engine instead of a anime/cell shade one? which i think might be a big contributor to the cheap uggo look. not sure but its a hunch
exactly!!! the artist is obviously v skilled, just a poor fit for medieval fantasy. like me saying that chara looks like a pkmn trainer- its true, i wouldn't bat an eye if she was lol
the models i'd describe as cheap looking? very flat. lacks the lush&vibrant lighting other cell shaded games have.
oh im glad to hear. i didnt think i was alone in this opinion so im glad to have it confirmed lol
i think its a little silly how i see some ppl act like crit of the engage designs is overreacting. there really is no word for a lot of them other than 'ugly' π
some people like that but i do notttt
also i hate awakening and fate's armour so much it literally got me into costume design, so. make of that what you will lol
anyway i think this fits the criteria of being petty bc clearly a lot of people like these charas and do get upset when pointed out the designs are not to everyone's taste, lol :")
i have a very strong hatred of the gacha game & vtuber school of character design that informs my dislike here.
screenshot of timerra from fe engage showing her fulll outfit
to balance it out i will again reiterate that this one is a cutie and i rlly like her costume, even if she looks less like an fe chara and more like a pokemon trainer (and also could do without the random black hanging bits on her top??? anyway)
everyone else's outfits suck so bad it blows my mind
