I never color the original, I like to keep a backup.

That’s the true advice.

YES!!! DO!!!

I’ll see to finishing it when I get home, then. XD

@theducktator

(Going back to your character)

My father and I have had multiple pitched arguments about topics that I do not recall, but marriage is the only continuing one at the moment. I am however, a bit concerned about several of his affairs that are potentially traitorous and scandalous, but I fear what he would do if he learned that I knew…

You should make a photo copy of the sketch and try out the colors you have in your mind on that, and if you like it, then go for it, but if not, you have the backup. That’s what I always do. I never color the original, I like to keep a backup. Plus, colored pencils tend to smear when mixed with graphite.

@whalekeeper

YES!!! DO!!!

I have a drawing of young Barnes and I might post it tomorrow or something.

@rae

Well, good luck!! And if it turns out badly, that doesn’t mean you’re a bad artist. <3

@mineralizedwritings
My mum says they’ll probably numb me, but that isn’t the same as anesthesia. I guess we’ll see. 😅

Why does it look like my post didn’t come through?

The Protector—Gabriel

“Yes, my birthmarks aren’t a mental illness, but that doesn’t mean that people don’t hate me, or judge me. If I was not the Protector, if I didn’t wear the mask, if I didn’t hide the birthmarks, I would have been killed by the people I protect everyday.” Gabriel clears his throat again, v…[Read more]

@rae

Yes, he’s flying around in the sky over the same yard Chase and Fel are approaching.

@whalekeeper

Is Marcel here? Because if he is, he might get pelted with apologies from Chase

@loopylin

One time back when I was a kid and lived further west a giant slug slimed on me and we couldn’t get it off, even had to use that like industrial soap that has sand beads in it. I was crying so hard 😭

@whalekeeper

oof lol, I’ll pray for you! I’ve had scopes before but under anesthesia, I can’t imagine doing it awake!

I love how Barnes avoids the question, and then both Cassius and Gabriel give full paragraphs about why they wear their masks. It cracks me up so much. 🤣

@loopylin @ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Well, I guess it’s a go for finalizing the sketch and then coloring it. I have a few coloring choices I’m deciding on. I might add a starry backdrop, and make his hair silver, or just do like it’s daytime. That’s why the top part of the page is devoid of anything at the moment.

Tbh, after an experience…[Read more]

The Protector—Gabriel

“So it wasn’t a flippant reason after all. That’s surprising.” Gabriel’s voice sounds young again. His hand moves towards his own mask, hesitates, then slightly dislodges it. A small sliver of skin showing a small cluster of strange birthmarks on his jaw, could be seen. He shows them to C…[Read more]

@rae

WOW!!!!!! So good! The expression!!!!!! That is SO Baron!! Yes, this is perfect!

Where were we… oh okay, I missed the last thing

To be clear, they are not much like me in any other way, and vice versa. Which I am very glad for. I try not to overidentify.

@loopylin

🤣 I love that. Ellie is relatable, especially with the over-sensitivity.

I’d say identifying with my characters happens with me as well, but lots of the time the traits are negative thought patterns I need to grow out of. The only cases where I can identify with actual mental conditions the characters have are Marcel, Lucille, and S…[Read more]

@theducktator

*stares back* So you’re ugly then.

[Barnes laughs]

*peers back at meme topic* Have you ever had a stranger ask you on a date?

“Yes. Multiple times. Maybe that counts as a response to your previous point.”
