CAIUS TREBONIUS AND MARK ANTONY, MARCH 15th
The Hetairia of Cassius, Luciano Canfora
Cic. Phil. 2
(taps mic) so as we all know, conspiracy is a kind of seduction, and actions not taken can be just as loud as the ones that are. so. uh. fellas! hey fellas. heyyyyyy.
like, I was looking at the Dolabella-Caesar-Antony mess yesterday, but something really fun and vicious happened here and I will be rotating it around in my head at maximum volume for the foreseeable future
the red panels are the Assassination of Julius Caesar by Vincenzo Camuccini (the pen and ink drawing, not the painting)
#gaius trebonius#like the last three times ive posted him. his look will probably change. but i have never once promised consistency on this blog#what's a consistent character design. you only achieve that when you get main character status in a comic#mark antony#drawing tag#komiks tag#roman republic tag#ides of march baby!#new tag for ides of march art. i'll retag everything later#also I’m going to kill dolabella myself. I love him. I want his head on cassius’ sword.#all these people are so MESSY good grief#also! two conspiracies: one from Cassius one from Trebonius. also sexy. much to think about#anyway test run for an idea. we will be revisiting this scene again#I have a better idea about how to do the red panels. what I don’t have is (checks notes) the patience mostly#I want to draw trebonius’ lip scar origin story#anyway they definitely got drunk and made out in a spectacularly sloppy kind of way at least once#beware! the ides of march!

trick or treat!
Okay, so I know this is almost three whole weeks late, due to ridiculously high ambitions on a short time limit, but if you're still in a spooky enough mood for a Halloween Party...
THE HAUNTED HOUSE by New Mayfair Dance Orchestra
#the better casino#cuphead oc#cuphead au#cddwtd#ace draws#happy belated halloween#I was like oh yay I finally finished those pictures of the building#time to start another huge project that literally no one is making me do#why yes it definitely needed to be this long and in color#don't get me wrong I'm having fun with these#I had been wanting to do something with this song for ages#I know not all the lyrics make sense but they're kind of hard to hear. I did the best I could.#I maaaaaaay have misunderstood the way Zacky's mimic thing works so that bit might not be canon#mmm lets pretend he can make mimics that look different than the real person?#I actually don't know if he can or not#I was too far into the drawing before I thought to ask him. and at that point I was NOT going to change anything about this

Atla live action 😐
#thats my honest reaction 😐#to be fair ive only seen 20 minutes of the s1 finale bc my parents are watching it but. mmmmm kinda mid#like. the casting is definitely an improvement since the last time they tried a live action but it feels like the writing falls flat#or maybe im being harsh bc ive only heard negative criticism on it beforehand. but fr anytime u bring up the original its already#good and not just because its the original. so much fucking detail went into it to the point of someone noticing azula wielding mai's knive#to how well thought out irohs character is used as a way of uniting the cast especially as zukos foil#i heard that sokkas sexism was toned down and i have to agree that feels like a cheap move. like i get WHY they think it would be better#but its not about how that reflects on real world its about how it affects the story. sokka starts out as a misogynistic asshole because#it makes it that much more impactful when he changes. toning that down makes it flatter and makes his character development weak#and someone pointed out they didnt even make him wear the kyoshi warrior uniform and i know it feels like such a small detail but#come on man. they did that in the original because not only does it help him really walk in their shoes - wearing 'feminine' clothing and#makeup and having suki explain its significance but it also ties in with the shows theme of harmony and intersectionality#i was also disappointed when they had the fire sages explain how the water tribe draws power from the moon because in the original it was#IROH who explained it to aang and everyone else BECAUSE we as the audience is under the impression hes with the 'bad guys'#and it builds up to how he learned from the other nations which reconciles his past as a war general and his character overall#AND its an excellent starting point for the cast and audience to understand how the nations arent as closed off as you would think#plus you would think its only fire nation doing propaganda but they expanded on that with earth kingdom censorship and it WORKS#a lot of things in the live action also feel arbitrary like. they gave momo a near death experience for 5 minutes for no reason#im firmly on the stance of bringing back filler moments instead of putting major events right after each other so that u give your#audience a sense of time passing and to really absorb the story. but i think thats more like shock value than filler and yeah its a small#thing to gripe about but those things build up and its really annoying. the thing abt avatar filler moments is that however small#its at least meaningful. hell even the beach episode emphasizes how isolated zuko and his friends are as child soldiers#i also swore to never watch the first live action since it was that bad but i really liked the stylized tattoos they used for aang#anyway. those arejust my thoughts. im not gonna watch the rest because im a ride or die for the original aftr growing up and#rewatching it at least 20 times as a kid. but theres definitely room for improvement and i wish ppl wouldnt take it as 'better' just cuz#netflix is adapting it. i wouldve killed for them to just reanimate the entire avatar series and touch NOTHING ELSE no redub#no changes to the story. just reanimate the thing and leave the rest alone and youd make easy money just the same#ALSO its very jarring not hearing jack desena and dante basco voicing sokka and zuko cause their voices were the most recognizable to me#i get that its because its live action but im allowed to feel a little sad abt that. and uncle irohs accent was really soothing#yapping

infinite doodles 31-40. i cannot for the life of me remember who designed that eggman empire general au infinite but it was someone on twitter. a good amount of all the infinites i drew for this campaign were based off of user requests actually, which im very thankful for bc sometimes its hard to think of poses or subjects to base doodles off of every single day lol. i definitely reused poses quite a bit whenever i had to scribble out a drawing before going to work or something. you can usually tell when i was rushing bc its like. standard 3/4 angle, standing, looking somewhere in the distance or at the viewer, arms crossed or at his sides or with one hand up. old reliable tbh
part 1 part 2 part 3
#engies daily dogs#my art#infinite the jackal#sth#sonic forces#the carmelldansen drawing was supposed to go in the previous post but my folder is unorganized af#so i forgor 💀 but we're back on track now so its fine#the most fun ones to draw out of this bunch were definitely the adventure pose and the beta concept design#nobody understands how much i love that concept art. its so like. weird and unnerving for a sonic character lmfao#i feel like if they went with that one though we wouldnt have gotten a lot of dialogue from him tho#bc that kind of design would work a lot better for a silent or near-silent villain#at least imo#i will always be thankful for the i-like-to-hear-myself-talk showboat infintie we did get tho#tee hee

Fine, I’ll admit that I like Lysandre 😔
#queue the ‘we all know Bo’#I mean it was definitely obvious from the beginning#and I’ve somewhat said I do in a few posts#and considering the amount of times I’ve drawn him should’ve definitely given it away /lh#the funniest part about me liking him is that I actually straight up don’t#I just I think I hate him so vehemently and deeply that I’ve 180 back to liking him#LIKE WHY ARE U PREOCCUPYING MY BRAIN#LIKE GET OUT OR LIKE PAY ME U FUCKING ASSHOLE#literally I can’t stress enough how unlikable he is#and then I see him and I get locked in#I cringe literally everytime I talk to him#maybe it was cause his ass has been haunting me for the past few months#I GOT SOCIALLY CONDITIONED /hj#like he makes my blood boil sm#when I pointed out that he holds himself like he’s insecure on Pasio to my friend and they went#‘someone who doesn’t like a character wouldn’t have noticed that’#or when they pulled the ‘true hate is indifference’ on me 😭#I mean I have always said I have to hate a character before I start liking them#so yeah I’m still gonna be really fucking mean to Orange Peel but unfortunately it means I actually like him#the most insufferable man in all Kalos and I’m still like ‘guess I better draw him again/think about him 24/7’#WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME#I HOPE U KNOW IM STILL KILLING HIM FOR ALL THE BS HE PULLS THO#rainbowpufflez rambles

if you draw enough monster ocs, when you go back to drawing a human character, it feels like "sameface syndrome" everytime, by virtue of their face being. human.
#toy txt post#or maybe i am just sameface syndrome#but also different face syndrome#two characters will have the same face but then the next time i draw those characters its a different face than they had last time!#i know part of it is being out of practice but also there is definitely an element of feeling constrained by human facial structure lmao#the monsters have Their Own Problems but like. no one has a face like bokrae no matter how inconsistent i am about drawing her#her features are iconic enough to her that you can tell everytime#birdie???? i faceclaimed eartha kitt for her and im still struggling cos i feel weird about faceclaiming as a concept#but even then 😭 one time i was trying to give headloose a face and someone was like wow he looks like birdie!#me 😭😭😭😭😭 what!!!!!! hes not supposed to!!!!!!!!!!!!!#i need to practice. features#you know the worst part about coming up w a bunch of fuckin Scenarios in my brain for ocs is that i have even fucking Drawn them yet#to give them like. iconic staple features and figure out what their faces look like. which feels like it would really help to have that#knowledge and muscle memory before i jump into trying to draw intense scenes with difficult poses!!#not to mention. listen. i can do the monster faces. somewhat. the bodies??????????? well for one. theyre too big everytime#im convinced i could be trying to draw bokrae on like a full ass wall size paper like a mural thing and run out of room. it just keeps#happening. i have no sense of scale for them either. by which i mean i struggle w scale already and also cant decide what i want it to be#and ive tried to handwave it away by being like ohhh uh. birdie casts spells on them to change their sizes for convenience but also#no. perhaps that explanation works for other ppl. @ myself tho its not good enough i Know Better!!!!!!#agh!!!!!!! i really need to figure out bokrae's Teeth also. like i dont. i coukd get away with it. but i should. and i want to.#anyway all this to say that i need to give these characters faces and body designs (actually the body designs for humanoid ocs is the easy#part. the faces are whats stumping me? well. i need more practice w all the body types again but like i Know what im Going For at least.#for the most part anyway. havent fully figured out heights. struggling w characters that i want to make short but give imposing tall energy#on occasion? birdie can be short all day long no problem. I want Alasdair to be short enough that he has a bunch of short boyfriends that#feel tall around him? bytte was going to be like 6ft max but then i thought about making her taller and like. what if i made her taller#headloose is not that /short/ but he is Not Tall and prolly pretty lean? twink build for sure#and of course all these short /tall distinctions come with a bias of relativity to my own height which i categorize as medium height#but short ppl call me tall and insist its not average and tall ppl call me short. (5'6) and then i have to factor in how the gender changes#the dynamic of a height like my height is Short For A Man but medium to tall for a Woman. which id argue is medium height bc mens heights#are socially held to high standards (hehe) and also i know ethnicity/race is also a factor? but im out of tags. rip. bye

every day i thank god that my mom is supportive of my design headcanons for characters because if i had to answer her questioning me about why i do it, i’d probably lose it
#shout out to my mom for this#literally earlier today she was like#”yknow. you could totally just copy the character down and everything-#-but i like how you interpret them in your own way”#and it made me happy#if she wasn’t supportive of it/was more nosy about it she’d probably ask me the most annoying to answer stuff#if my dad was into anime and knew the characters i draw. he definitely would ask the most annoying and infuriating shit#ANYWAYS since i’m on the topic of my design hcs. y’all wanna hear the reasoning behind some? too bad you’re getting it anyway#there’s some that i do for more practical reasons#then some i do just because i think they look good#like. i draw gojo with brown skin because when i started drawing him i only drew traditionally#and his eyebrows and eyelashes would show up soooo much better on darker skin#so i did that so you could just… actually see some of his hair 💀#but then i draw geto with moles and piercings cuz i just think it looks good on him. same for yuta and toge too#i draw maki and mai with brown skin because i think it looks really nice with their hair color#plus i love seeing black cosplayers cosplay maki or mai. and so i was like “…yeah i should draw that”#anyways sorry for the rant 💀#me.txt

Fallen Angel
#m draws#good omens#anthony j crowley#crowley good omens#I tried something new with my style and I kinda like it#definitely need to play around more with how to do wrinkles in this style#now should I have been sleeping so I had a snowball’s chance in hell of having a better day tomorrow?#almost definitely#but I finally forced myself to get out of bed and inspiration struck#and I guess I just wanted to feel a little bit normal so I went for it#and hoping people don’t think I’m faking how I felt earlier (and still feel) because I made art 🙃#anyway#I spent a long time making a broken halo for him#but it didn’t turn out well so I’m posting the version without it#might try again when it’s not 1am

Sier? I haven’t even met her! Laugh.
#keese draws#oc art#oc#ocs#eternal gales#today has been a shit day but Im feeling a bit better now that I’ve drawn sier#long story short one of my friends is being harassed by their ex#so I’ve been in a blinding rage all day and combined with me not getting enough sleep and cleaning all day today quite sucked#but hey. I drew sier and made them a new mini ref so that’s gotta count for something#but yeah sier my beloved I’ve been thinking abt them all day they’re just so cute and I love drawing them#I forgive them for being a human character they’re silly and have shapes#I now have only 4 eg refs to go I think? which is honestly a lot closer than I thought I was I thought this was gonna be another year of#last minute refs for artfight and some that don’t get remade but honestly this is super doable#rly the only big problem is going to be fydd since it’s been so long since I’ve drawn him properly#the other three are just dodie tali and bloom which shouldn’t be too bad at all#now idk if the icons are happening but it’s definitely feeling a lot more doable now so idk maybe I’ll get to some of them#key word maybe I make no promises#thankfully I don’t rly have any other ocs that I feel pressed to make new refs for so I can take it easy leading up to artfight this year#I’d like to get some of them icons but that’s not necessary#hopefully sier will get drawn this year she hasn’t been attacked since her old design from years ago lol#but sier is also a character I’ve gotten other pieces of art of over the years so I won’t be heartbroken if they keep getting ignored lol#I don’t rly know who I’d like to see attacked most tbh#obviously I’m always happy to see art of any of my ocs but usually I do have a preference#so Im excited to see who gets attacked even if it’s only a few of them#I’m willing to bet teke will get at least one attack I believe in him#hopefully teka gets drawn too I love her dearly as well#anyways shower time and then sleep time gn gamers

nakey moon
working on pirate AU designs and... the lack of pants really doesn’t do them any favors XD. Next up is nakey sun so I’ll probably just throw that somewhere? idk
#SB Moon#Moondrop#Fnaf#security breach#pirate moon#pirate AU#YMDT AU#good lord drawing those skinny fuckin legs was way harder than it should have been#I absolutely got lazy on the feet cause he gonna be in boots pretty much every time i draw him after this so secret beans instead of toes#also his scars are gonna be soldered gold for those hard to heal injuries#ah they can heal naturally but it takes forever#unless like a limb gets blown off#but they can be technically repaired as well but it wont heal back perfect#and what better way to accent battle scars as a pirate than with plundered gold repurposed to show off how bad ass you are#also his claws are definitely retractable#though he never retracts them#sun also gonna have claws but he only pulls them out in emergencies or when hes particularly nettled

for like 3 weeks i was wondering why i was sleeping so much and felt listless. and just now I managed to email 3 people and responded to a month old message in the span of an hour because I got back to TAKING MY FUCKIN MEDS..........
#MOTHER FFFFUCKER#to be fair. my doc said I could stop taking them while im on break since i wouldnt need to be constantly pumped on stimulants#im not sure if it was a side effect but i managed to take like 3 different naps in one day and STILL managed to sleep thru the whole night#at least 2 days into my break. the weird thing is i didnt feel more or less rested afterwards. but mentally i think im in a good place rn#to really put the level of awakeness im at rn i feel weirdly confident i could start one piece. also bc of that sick new opening it BANGS#the song is really good and im in love with the animation style. did some digging and it seems one of the lead animators is masato mori#but i could be wrong. it seems he also did some work on mp100 which could explain a lot lol.. he uses smear frames really well to convey#consistent movement and fluidity!!! someone else might have done color design but it works really really well esp with odas style!!#just love the overall vibe and aesthetic and id really love to study it and incorporate a bit of it into my art.. especially the thick#outlines which i think helps to separate characters and objects on screen. though i have to say the style is definitely more suited to#animation bc of the simpleness and smears. maybe that will help me explore shapes and perspective when i draw... i wanna get better#at drawing poses and angles but i have a hard time wrapping my head around space and using perspective guide lines NGHHHH#i wonder if it has to do with my dogshit ability to judge distance. not depth perception but like. judge how far smth is in metres etc#im also wearing an N95 for the first couple weeks back bc of the wave. absolutely NO BODY is wearing a mask its so fucking over#where im sitting ive heard 5 different people coughing probably not into their elbows!!! and im just. head in my fucking hands#there was a kid sitting a couple seats away in class coughing as he pleases and i wanted to grab him in a chokehold so badly. PLEASEE#ive been annoying my family by asking them to mask up and reminding them to bring masks when they go out and showing them news articles#but at least its working bc we ordered some KN95s and my mom is at least taking me seriously so. please dont be afraid to speak up abt your#health. take care of yourself and others however u can!! wear that mask indoors at your maskless friends house!!! stay home when u can!!#im wearing a surgical mask at home too bc my parents have '''a dry throat cough''' and they are so bad at coughing into their sleeves#also im pretty sure dry throat isnt transmissible bc my brother started coughing too so.. i also tested negative but they havent tested yet#im also not a doctor but i have to keep reminding ppl whenever i can that covid and flu work differently. covid is new and too recent to#have nearly as much research done on it. it seems its also compounding so instead of building immunity it weakens the body and spreads to#to other systems which might explain brain fog and muscle weakness. i remember someone early in the pandemic got infected and it messed up#their smell/taste receptors so bad that they cant eat most foods and that stays in the front of my mind when i think abt covid. christ#yapping

i’d like to know more about kzm!! i like him ^_^ you mentioned that he got contaminated? how?/what are the symptoms?
I'm going to focus a little more on his contamination in this reply! [Here's a post summarizing his character for people who haven't seen it before.]
Contamination in this context refers to a type of fictional corrupting disease that occurs after prolonged exposure to angelic power. My good friend @manywinged wrote a document about the progression and symptoms which explains it better than I could, so [click here to read more about it.] (cw for fictional terminal illness + discussion of topics like death/suicide/euthanasia)
KZM is afflicted with Stage III contamination. During his past as a demon hunter, he would often use an angelic weapon from the archives of the Bishop Foundation and participate in experimental procedures utilizing samples of angelic flesh and bone. This, of course, was before there was a thorough understanding of the risks of contamination. They don't do stuff like that anymore (or at least not as openly)
He experiences a variety of physical and mental symptoms, but the big three are metallic "rotting" especially on his right side, changes to his eyes, and changes to his strength/endurance. Having been removed from his more active position (and his sword), the progression of his contamination has slowed down significantly.
#oc: kzm#replies#this is a bit of a disjointed explanation because i'm writing it after work but i hope it makes sense#definitely read through the contamination doc to get a better idea of what it looks like#enjoy this weird edit of the last pic i drew of him bc i wanted to show his scarring but was too lazy to draw a new pic#2023#haxxy oc

Are there any other Kirby fans on here who are also fans of Star Trek? I know of a couple people already, but I’m trying to see if there’s anyone else. I personally see a lot of parallels between Kirby and Star Trek, and some of my Kirby fanart is Star Trek-inspired, so that’s why I’m asking.
#text post#Kirby#just asking because when I eventually get around to drawing my Susie redemption arc comic#it’s going to have a lot of Star Trek references in it and I want to make sure people understand them lmao#also I see a lot of parallels between Kirby and Star Trek in general#I think the biggest one is the parallel between what the Borg do to Captain Picard and what Susie does to Meta Knight#context for Kirby fans who do not watch Star Trek: the Borg are a collective of cybernetic organisms#they assimilate other organisms into their collective against their will to gain those organisms’ knowledge and abilities#in The Next Generation they assimilate Captain Picard and use him and his knowledge to attack Starfleet/the Federation#it’s basically what Susie does when she mechanizes Meta Knight and turns him against Kirby#the episode of the anime where Dedede gets the Scarfies as pets also reminds me of the Tribble episode from Star Trek: The Original Series#another big parallel between Star Trek and Kirby is that both franchises have a mirror universe with evil versions of the characters#also Magolor as a character reminds me a lot of Quark from Deep Space Nine not sure if anyone else sees it lmao#anyway if there are other Kirby fans out there who like Star Trek what’s your favorite show from the franchise?#my personal favorite is Voyager but I also really like Deep Space Nine too I’m rewatching it right now with a friend#I’ve seen all the shows and some are definitely better than others but they each bring something new and interesting to the franchise#I wouldn’t say that there are any shows in the franchise that I hate or think are awful#it’s kind of like Kirby too in that just as there are no bad Kirby games there are no bad Star Trek shows lmao at least in my opinion#there are some shows that are weaker than others or have some annoying features but I wouldn’t say they’re bad
