❄Will❄

Yeah it could have done better as an extended episode with a proper epilogue... but knowing how bad it could have been I'm okay with what it was lmao.

Just finished the last ep of Beastars. They basically fixed everything I had a problem with in the manga so I'm content.

I'm about half way through rn and so far so good.

Always 6' tall or more, overly aggressive, domineering, every sexuality except what he actually is, wrong kinks, etc...

Ofc RP accounts are only lifting characters they like the look of and accuracy is unimportant. It's just kinda funny how off it'd end up being.

It's possible, but also hard to really fully police unless you catch them in the act. Better to only worry about it if you see it happening.

Saw something earlier that reminded me that people used to steal Will for their RP accounts and they'd always write him as the exact opposite of what he actually is.

Will's dad around the time Will would have been born.

And unfortunately came back.

Will's dad around the time Will would have been born.

Oh I meant more like I came up with it to reverse engineer why he has those features, but not about how his species looks like as a whole. I don't mind sex dimorphism in this case, and I don't mind humanlike hair on anthros, I just want it to click aesthetically and cohesively.

Every day is a struggle to not constantly post about how fucking horny I am for Aya.

I don't have any qualms with sexual dimorphism here it's more about hashing out an aesthetic that works rn. I designed him independent of how I thought his species would broadly look like, so while I don't mind anthros with human hair I still want it stylistically cohesive while looking nice.

Will's 'hair' is like a mane that grows out of a pattern on his head and likewise his beard is a pattern that comes in during puberty like guard hairs. It's not precisely like human hair, it's just similar.

I'm still working out how it looks on his mom. Not 100% content just yet.

An attempt at Will's mom around the time he would have been born.

idk this is my fault for designing my sona independently of how I think other anthros should look in the same world.

I almost forgot I was gonna work out how the female anthros look in this world so I'm in the process of figuring out what Will's mom looks like.

It's important to me that any depictions of Will and Aya when they're older make it super obvious they still regularly fuck.

Study + trying to figure out the best way to use this charcoal brush.

I might use the charcoal brush for more drawings done by Aya. It's been a while since I've done one of those and I still need to draw from the perspective where she becomes better at it.

Had the craving to mess around with a charcoal brush.

Listen, I can say the horniest thing I can think of in the moment and immediately draw fluffy romance after and vice versa and you will simply never know what you're getting next. I don't even know, apparently.

Studying only the essentials tonight.

This is what it feels like to check the proportions on a drawing when you don't have an angled surface to draw on.

Shorts have been heavily pushed on all platforms that have them for a good few years now but it's a very toxic and puritanical environment.

I'm good on my end tho. I just want a place to share a feeling and idrc about becoming mega popufur. Cool if they like and cool if they don't.

I don't actually think a return to galleries is going to happen, it's just a format that allows people to not shotgun content as easily. None of these are perfect solutions.

And even so, there's still ppl on FA getting scammed by obvious AI touch ups and ppl who very openly use it as refs.

How we choose to engage with media of all kinds. If you find yourself accidentally liking AI art that you can easily spot after the fact without being told, then it's on the viewer to consider how inattentive they are when they engage with art. It's a consideration to slow down and smell the roses.

all art posted on that platform becomes more homogenized even if they come from wildly different genres or formats. That means not all art can be equally successful despite it's quality, which is also true in life in general.

But my point again is not about the success on a platform, it's about

I agree but with the caveat that not all art has the same goals and your best work with the best presentation could still be wildly inaccessible and not fundable even with a cult following.

Ingenuity can come from limitation, but being creatively trapped by the limitations of a site also means
