I think most of my time was spent messing with the frames just so I could find some lazy Photoshop effect to avoid drawing them in the first place. In the end they still look like awkward cutouts but screw it, I’m throwing in the towel.
Lovall Malovitch and Maza’am Ardis, Mordesh scientist and engineer pre- and post-Contagion. Space zombie is a good look for you two, you should consider making it permanent.
Oh wait …
Backgrounds, frames, and patterns are all stock images.
A commission I did for a DnD Dragonborn character. Part bard, part paladin, all shiny. I think this one went really well, and it helps that I had a lot of fun with it. She’s got great colors!
This a Moonmelon, scientifically knows as asidus. This fruit grows in some parts of Japan, and is known for its vibrant blue color. What you probably don’t know about this fruit is that it can switch flavors after you eat it. Everything sour will taste sweet, everything salty will taste bitter, and it gives water a strong orange-like taste. It’s also very expensive…costing about ¥16000 JPY (which is about 200 dollars).
or you know this could be photoshopped
but idk
you tell me
this is alexandrias melon (wow)
it never grows seeds but it can still produce other melons (its magic)
it is grown deep in the jungles of peru and can prevent you from aging well into the hundreds
it is known by the natives there as k’uhul ajaw cacao shi-jiiy.
its really strange how all of these pictures look exactly the same because everything on the internet is true
This is the Peppermeloni. (seriously gosh just look at that sexy mother fucker) Its scientific name is Tumblrous Pepperonus.
The only known specimen is in a pot in David Karps treasure dungeon. It is a tradition that a single slice is given to every tumblr blog that reaches 500,000 followers.
It has the remarkable property of being as healthy as watermelon but tasting like cheesy pepperoni pizza.
This planet is really just so amazing guys wow.
Patrickmelon
The taste of this melon will always surprise you.
I’m fucking done with this site
This is the evermelon.
If you cut this watermelon a certain way you will find that it has seemingly regenerated. You can do this an infinite number of times and will have a neverending supply of melon.
OH GOD I haven’t seen this post in YEARS and THAT is the fucking additon to it!?
There’s something I enjoy about death knights being aggressively affectionate. Something about them annoying the heck out of their partners when they try to show affection really just fits the DK aesthetic.
If you are not asexual and you want to write an asexual character, start here: You need to actually write an asexual character.
Don’t write an asexual character as yourself minus something. Don’t write an asexual character as a person with a missing piece. Don’t write an asexual character as if their orientation is a hole with nothing filling it. Don’t write an asexual character as if they’re you after you lost something, or you with something you treasure scraped out of you.
Write the asexual character as a person who grew whole without that part, but don’t think of it as a part of them that should be there or used to be there or will be there someday to complete them. Writing asexual characters this way is what makes so many of them feel robotic or alien–it’s the same thing that makes ignorant people ask asexual people in real life if we’re fully alive. Don’t write around a hole, and don’t fill it with a substitute. Write them fully realized, as a person. Yes, depending on the character they may have been hurt, or they may have very serious problems, or they may have a tough time finding happiness (even partially because of their asexuality, like many of us do in real life). But please, write us as people.
As people. Not as ideas with missing hearts.
How?
Talk to asexual people. Read work by asexual people. Ask asexual people to read your work and evaluate your characters.
But most of all? Don’t think of yourself as the baseline and them as defined by how they aren’t like you. Write about them. What do they have?
