@badasserywomen ’s Nazmar!

I wanted to doodle a face but didn’t have any of my own characters in mind so @badasserywomen ‘s sickass Aradia it is

I'm not gonna lie, but Catholics with guns are fucking badass. Thank goodness for Hellsing and Black Lagoon for blessing us with gun-slinging paladins like Heinkel and Eda.

EMLYN: NO-ONE CAME TO GRIEVE UK/EU TOUR

30.03.2023 @ The Deaf Institute, Manchester (250 Capacity)

Written April 2023

This was my second show at The Deaf Institute and Emlyn’s first show in Manchester however, this is her last show of the tour with only 2 other dates in London & Berlin, similar to the Dylan show I saw there. There was a Paris show when the tour was announced, but that was cancelled due to another opportunity arising for her album release. Emlyn’s alt-pop sound is a mixture of all of my music tastes - think Demi Lovato's 'confident' era pop anthems meets Taylor Swift's reputation era style mixed with Sabrina Carpenter's heartbreak lyricism.

I started listening to Emlyn’s music mid-pandemic and wanted to go to her album release show in London in the early summer of 2022. However, it clashed with my GCSEs, so I wasn’t able to go. This time, the minute she announced this tour, I made plans to go and was also able to book tickets for her meet & greet before the concert and talk to her, buy merch & have a full conversation with the opening act, Beth Mcarthy.

Her set was amazing, I had only listened to a few of her songs a couple of days beforehand, and what I heard was great. She also played an unreleased song and a cover of Billie Eilish’s ‘Happier Than Ever’. Something I found interesting is that she interacted with the sound tech at the back right beforehand whilst on stage, asking for alterations in her IEMs and double-checking the sound on her guitar. We then saw Emlyn’s band come on to double-check their instruments and IEMs inbetween sets and could see them alter a few monitors/boxes on stage & see the guitarist set up and soundcheck. In the intermission between sets my sister approached Emlyn’s manager to say potentially have a chat and say hi but Emlyn was due to come on stage very soon so told her he'd be hanging around after the show so we could come and find him then. The set itself was absolutely incredible. As I said earlier, I've wanted to see Emlyn live for a while now, and she didn't disappoint. If the fact that she had an entire set of belters and vocally challenging songs wasn't enough, her stage presence clearly showed that she's a pop powerhouse. The emotionally vulnerable lyrics of her ‘sad bitch anthems’ perfectly opposed her 'no-remorse bad bitch' anthems and encapsulated her message that it's okay to be a mess and a badass at the same time. After one of her most emotional songs 'Change For Me' the crowd (including us) held up flowers & pictures of her younger self with sweet messages for her to show her that she isn't alone. The transitions between songs were particularly interesting as some of them were medleys of other songs she didn’t play but had the same themes/vibes of those that she did play. Although I didn’t necessarily relate to any of her songs, it was fun to sing along in a room full of those that did and see how much Emlyn has impacted them/their lives.

After the concert, we weren’t expecting her manager to remember us since we assumed he’d be distracted by work, so we were a little surprised when he came out from backstage and walked directly towards us. We had a full conversation with him as I'm considering going into a music business course post-college, and my sister wants to go into graphic design, specifically in the music industry. He gave us a lot of advice about the industry as a whole and a few specific notes into specific sectors. He seemed really enthusiastic talking to us about it. We were really glad that he took the time to talk to us and have a proper conversation with us.

One of my favourite things about Emlyn is that she’s currently working on her 3rd album yet is still almost entirely independent, working most of the time with just her manager and producer. She’s been in the music industry , working with her manager as a songwriter for almost 6 years, only pursuing a solo career for the last 3 The fact that she’s persevered and stayed chasing her dream just shows how determined she is and how much potential she has to be one of the next biggest names in pop.

I know that I said Dylan @ the o2 institute was my favourite concert, but this one definitely takes the top spot - I love this venue and to see my 3rd top artist of 2022 (below 5 Seconds Of Summer & Taylor Swift) at the Deaf Institute was the best birthday experience I could've ever imagined & I can't wait to hear her next album sometime this year.

Fanart of my two favorite badasserywomen characters demi and carmilla I love ash work she amazing

Smol angry iodwyn & big hot shal dynamic is so tasty! Thank you

thank you we enjoy it

artist: [is best known for drawing something they enjoy and are good at]

people with no common sense in their asks: HI! can you pleaaaase do [insert something the artist repeatedly made clear they will never fucking do] i want to see this in your style!! ^_^

????

Does anyone else struggle to find people attractive/likeable irl but end up getting what feels like one of those unrequited crushes on random people on tumblr? The inexplicable feeling of joy at the smallest interaction or acknowledgement of your existence

Like I’ve never seen her face but her art is so cool and her personality is interesting and “I wanna talk to her and be her friend but she definitely doesn’t know who I am and no way in hell am I gonna do anything about it” kind of platonic crush. You ever get that?

A while ago I wanted to channel some of @badasserywomen energy and draw some well... bad ass women, super happy how with this orc shaman turned out and hopefully I'll have the time to make more of these next year when the load from projects lighten a bit!

The benefits of a gaint buff woman who can move big rocks out the way and look good doing it.

Now it is 1:30 am but bear with me

Women-or, anyone for that matter with their bappies out, just vibing as such. I just… I dunno. It’s so freaking cool. Can’t wait to do that.
