If you follow my art blog you might’ve known this was coming, but for the rest of ya’ll hey guess what i’ve been working on the past few months!
Originally I was going to just stop here, but while working on this I was having a lot of fun so the current plan is to actually make this a proper finished animatic, assuming the file doesn’t cause my computer to burst into flames! I have no idea how long that will take me, so in the meantime enjoy this sketchy animatic that’s been rattling around in my skull for over a calendar year!
Oh yeah and the song is Stronger by The Score!
Happy Greed Day! I’m still plugging away at this so I didn’t have time to make anything too fancy this year, but I feel like the effort I put into this thing gives me some leeway haha - I’ve put a wip under the cut if you’re curious how the lineart/flats stage looks at this point, cw for flashing lights!
One piece of Avatar lore I don't quite believe is that most avatars don't learn they're the avatar until they're told on their 16th birthday.
like, POV you're some Earth Kingdom kid who knows the previous Water Tribe avatar died suspiciously close to the time you were born. You CANNOT tell me that that entire class-year of starry bright-eyed children doesn't spend every waking moment trying to prove they're the avatar. "Shut up Hang Lee you're not the avatar I'M the avatar. That stream just moved toward me." "Nuh-uh a fish did that and Avatar Tepek died on the summer solstice and YOU'RE a winter baby." "All the seasons are opposite in the water tribe Hang Lee!" "Nuh-uh"
You're 8 years old with all your other 8-year-old friends at your first day of How To Throw A Rock Class you CANNOT tell me that every kid present doesn't waste half the class trying to catch grass on fire with all the sincerity and conviction of a gas station hopeful snagging a mega-millions lotto ticket with their Mars bar and $30 gas fill-up.
Thinking about that time Hawkeye spent with the Bradley's as hostage for months(!) :]
jane austen is timeless because the line “i’m 27 years old, i’ve no money and no prospects. i’m already a burden to my parents and i’m frightened” is as relevant today as when she published pride and prejudice in 1813 😭
So yeah I rewatched the finale last night since my mother was finishing the series and…yeah I’m still crying
i am EVIL!!! no I don't want to join your found family please go away,,
I'm literally pointing a death lazer at you
*sobs*
stop asking about my dad
there’s barely a punchline to this one i just wanted to draw the gang trying to hop on a train like a bunch of railway hobos
greed in his new live action outfit because it keeps making me laugh, happy Tits-out Tuesday everyone
replacing curses in sentences with harmless words like heck and then sometimes even censoring heck to “h*ck” is a good meme but an even better one would be, like, censoring the wrong word in a sentence entirely. example:
go fuck yours*lf
example A
agree 100%. so important that I am going to paste the rest of it here. (one note– I think that the author goes by Daniel Ortberg nowadays, but don’t quote me on that. regardless, Ortberg is a treasure)
GAWAIN: your clothes – your hair – your face – they’re all green
GREEN KNIGHT: that’s not all of me that’s green
GAWAIN: what is that supposed to mean
GREEN KNIGHT: let’s play a game you hit me today and i’ll hit you a year from now
GAWAIN: it’s Christmas
GREEN KNIGHT: fine hit me today and i’ll hit you a year and a day from now happy?
GAWAIN: I don’t understand the rules of this game or the prize what is the end goal here
GREEN KNIGHT: are you going to try to cut my head off or what
[GAWAIN cuts the GREEN KNIGHT’s head off]
GREEN KNIGHT: great hit see you in a year
[The GREEN KNIGHT picks his head up and rides away]
GAWAIN: oh my God
KING ARTHUR: honestly my advice to you is not even worry about this
GUINEVERE: yeah do not take this seriously
GAWAIN: why would I do that that’s a terrible idea this man can’t die and I have to let him strike me in a year
KING ARTHUR: look i just said that was my advice
GREEN KNIGHT: welcome to my castle, we’ve definitely never cut off each other’s heads before, my name is Bertilak and I am a regular human color, how are you
GAWAIN: Hello thank you for your hospitality, but I cannot stay long I have an appointment with a man at the Green Chapel in a few days
GREEN KNIGHT: that is JUST down the road from here, probably you should just stay here until it’s time for that, stay here with me and my wife
GAWAIN: very well I accept
GREEN KNIGHT: oh but shoot I have to go on a hunt, like right now so why don’t we just agree to play a game for as long as you’re staying here where I bring you whatever I find during the day and you bring me whatever you find during the day
GAWAIN: what an odd suggestion why don’t I just come hunting with you instead?
GREEN KNIGHT: NO YOU STAY HERE IN THE CASTLE AND YOU GIVE ME WHATEVER YOU FIND HERE
GAWAIN: but you already own everything in the castle, it’s your c –
GREEN KNIGHT: I WILL SEE YOU ON THE MORROW
LADY BERTILAK: whatcha kissin’
GAWAIN: what? nothing
LADY BERTILAK: let’s make out
GAWAIN: I don’t feel like we should do that
LADY BERTILAK: if you don’t kiss me at least once it would really hurt my feelings
GAWAIN: well if it would hurt your feelings
LADY BERTILAK: great now you can make out with my husband tonight
GREEN KNIGHT: GAWAIN I have brought you a deer from today’s hunt what do you have for me
GAWAIN: I uh I guess I have some kissing for you to have
GREEN KNIGHT: sounds great [they kiss] ok see you tomorrow
GAWAIN: oh I really don’t want to play this game again, this is making me sort of unco –
GREEN KNIGHT: see you tomorrow
LADY BERTILAK: let’s have sex
GAWAIN: Okay, no for two reasons one is that you are my host’s wife and also it goes against every vow of knighthood ever and the second half of the second reason is that then I would have to also have sex with your husband according to your weird castle sex game
LADY BERTILAK: mm that sounds like a Gawain problem not a Lady Bertilak problem
GAWAIN: I’m not having sex with you
LADY BERTILAK: fine here’s my underwear though, you have to take it otherwise it would be rude
GAWAIN: well I don’t want to be rude excuse me, I have to go kiss your husband again
GREEN KNIGHT: Well, Gawain it’s been a great time here at Castle Makeout but you’d better go fight that Green Knight you keep talking about
GAWAIN: I will probably perish when it is his turn to deliver the blow Farewell, friend
GREEN KNIGHT: Gawain Gawain it was me the whole time
GAWAIN: what
GREEN KNIGHT: I’m the same guy and I’m not gonna kill you I’m just gonna fuck up your neck a little because you kept my wife’s underwear and didn’t tell me but you’re all right, guy you’re all right
GAWAIN: what the hell what the hell was the point of any of this why the hell did you set all this up for
GREEN KNIGHT: :)
GAWAIN: what the HELL
KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE: henceforth we shall all wear green sashes to celebrate the valuable lesson we have learned this day
GAWAIN: WHAT LESSON WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED
KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE: :)
