Dissonant Melody: Part #18

ninjago fame hcs

- cole goes into spotify hunts to find new unknown music and then shares it on instagram and twitter.

- jay comments on people’s posts bc he genuinely enjoys seeing people excited that he noticed them.

- zane has socials that jay set up to him and he has tons of followers but he doesn’t use them unless jay helps him.

- kai has the most of popular magazine photoshoots. (e.g. vouge)

- lloyd gets “never in my life have i seen a man this blond” comments everyday and he laughs every time.

- pixal never really posts unless it’s with nya and zane.

- nya specifically only goes on twitter to get on the guys nerves when they tweet something.

- lloyd rarely posts pictures of himself but when he does everyone panics and the internet goes feral.

- kai publicly flirts with harry styles. period. cannot convince me otherwise. every time anything has to do with that englishmen kai is the first to say something about it.

- the only time any of the ninja got canceled was jay for saying that he didn’t like parrots 😔.

- cole purposely makes dead mom jokes on the daily.

- the amount of times he’s been tagged on the ‘fuck me emo boy’ song is slowly but successfully driving morro insane.

- morro wasn’t expecting it but people adore his style.

- the moment people found out nya wears glasses everyone couldn’t stop talking about it for weeks.

Taking some nicer group pictures of my merch, for a first try they don’t look too bad!

Really excited to list it up this week!

Here comes the boy!  Can you tell which panels I actually spent time on?  Haha.  Sorry that most of this comic is so messy, but otherwise I would never get it all done!  Part 2 of this convo coming soon.   Also, thank you so much for all the lovely comments and hashtags!  They keep me going!  I wish I could respond but Tumblr keeps giving me an error message when I try.  BEGINNING || PREVIOUS || NEXT

This A Friendship Almost Too Romantic — Submitted by nemethos-deamon

I’ve been playing Splatoon 3 and it’s so fun 

?????? NATIONAL HERO???

BEGINNING || PREVIOUS || (NEXT COMING SOON)  

DONE.  I’m resisting the urge to do a whole TED Talk on future Leo.  However, I do want to discuss something on the matter.  To be brief, while I see a lot of people in the fandom emphasizing the pain and self loathing of this character (all of which I am certain he goes through) that is not what I see in him by the beginning of the movie.  Some one who hates himself that much and is so bogged down with regret would not be the type to speak about still having “hope” as their greatest weapon (especially in such a cheesy manner).  I see a man who has gone through the ringer and come out the other end harder and wiser.  But most importantly he appears to have doubled down on his faith in himself and even more so in his loved ones.  He knows it’s not about him.  That he doesn’t have the luxury to be depressed and ultimately must overcome his own mind to achieve his tenacious goals.  Does he still have bad days?  Most certainly, anyone filled with that kind of regret does, but I really think that this is a battle he fights and wins more often than not by the time of 2044.  He is a man dedicated to his cause and family, and while he still has a long ways to go at this point in the story, I feel like this would be the start of him finally forgiving himself.

I’m not into torture porn (though that may surprise some of you) nor do I think it’s healthy to wallow in that sort of pain for an extensive period (fandoms can be a great outlet for this, but it can have a huge impact on your mental and emotional state if not treated in a healthy manner), and I want this to be a story of healing rather than one completely bogged down with sorrow.  Because no matter how bleak things can be, you are always worthy of love, especially self love. 

Please make sure to give yourself a hug and thank you for all your support and kind words.  We have one last round to wrap up Leo’s arch then it’s onto April.

uh oh.

hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Random Splatoon thought but with how obvious Side Order showed that Pearl and Marina are together, it’d be funny if one of the splatfests was about Deep Cut trying to figure out what wedding gift they should get the two.

Each of them have an idea on what’d be the perfect wedding gift, Shiver being generic but practical, Frye being flamboyant but useful, and Big Man being weird but traditional (at least traditional for his clan).

We don’t even know it’s for Pearl and Marina until after the Splatfest, they just say “friends of ours are getting married” and then when the winner is announced it’s revealed who’s wedding it’s for “Alright, it’s decided. We’ll get Pearl and Marina _____, as their wedding gift.”

Then of course a follow up that Pearl is a bit miffed that Deep Cut not only announced it to everyone but let others decide for them what to get as a gift.

I doubt Nintendo would do that considering the anti-gay countries that have Splatoon but hey, they could just give them…idk, Dogs vs Cats vs Birds for a Splatfest.
