A Wonderful Day For Soup

I recently read @twilightprince101′s fic, Homestyle Gigglefunny Soup and I’ve been possessed by my hubris to draw something for it. It is extremely cute, wholesome, and a little bit emotional, and I highly recommend ya’ll read it for that sweet, sweet soup!

I wanted to go super soft on this one, so I decided to play around with a purely pastel color palette and change up my work flow a bit for this. This isn’t my usual line work as I just opted to just refine the sketch a bit and work with that. I also wanted to include some of things that were present in the fic here, so see how many things you can spot if you’ve already read it.

so things are not going well with my new elderly socdem friend unfortunately.

Baz tell me about the discourse in the youtube gun restoration community

jien i love you.

basically some gun restoration youtubers will artificially age guns (usually more modern/common/cheap ones, like handguns) and just REALLY rust those suckers up so they get a better thumbnail. and a lot of people who do it for the love of the craft like. HAAATE this. like ive seen multiple "how to spot fake aging on guns" videos because they hate it so much. its to the point where like in a normal gun restoration video the person will be like "and just in case you THOUGHT i aged this artificially i DIDNT and heres PROOF" like one guy literally went through the economics of what would make him more money: keeping the gun in good/normal condition or the monetization he would get off a video where he covers it in rust. like they are HARD FUCKING CORE ABOUT THIS. this one guy was like "and besides, a rare, beautiful piece like this? i would NEVER tamper with. because unlike some of my contemporaries, i have VALUES. i would rather eat gravel than damage a piece like this one" its literally awesome

I didn't know until now that Deadline is hosting those exciting behind the scenes episodes where the actors, writers, directors and others members of the artistic team explain how they create the show.

If you loved like me episode 5 Partings, you will really enjoy this bonus.

This time the special guests are for the actors: Morfydd Clark (Galadriel),Charlie Vickers (Halbrand), Cynthia Addai-Robinson (Queen Regent Miriel), Trystan Gravelle (Pharazon), Ema Horvath (Earien), and Leon Wadham (Kemen)

The episode director Wayne Che Yip, writer Justin Doble, and composer Bear McCreary gave too some interviews.

My favorite parts:

When Charlie Vickers and Wayne Yip confirmed that Morfydd Clark and all the actors that played with her in the swords fight scene had done so much stunt rehearsal, when came the day of filming it, they did the entire scene without the help of the stunt actors, which allowed the director to make full shots of Morfydd instead of doing only close ups of her face to hide the fact it's not her.

Leon Wadham is so excited about playing Kemen, his relationship with Eärien and his father Pharazön! He gave a lot of insights about what Kemen thinks and what he wants, that changed my view on the character and his intentions."His" Kemen is more eager initially to follow his father's path and more selfish than i perceived him to be, thus Isildur's decision to save his life instead of running away shocked him: he saw it as something incredibly selfless and heroic.

Ema Horvath brings so many good insights about Eärien's attachment to Nùmenor, how her love for Isildur is linked to the fact that she already lost her mother and can't see her other brother.

Which brings the question: what about her father? Why isn't her relationship with Elendir more developed? They had one scene together long ago (episode 3), in which' their relationship didn't seem good. While he showed a strong support to Isildur's career to the point to force him to enroll in the Sea Guard, he was shocked that she submitted a new application to the Builder's Guild (she hide it from him probably because she feared he would discourage her, he was already convinced the Guild wouldn't reconsider its decision), and shouted at her when she tried to defend her brother. When they left for war, the crowd stopped her from reaching Isildur, which broke her heart, but nothing was showed or said about her feelings about Elendil'sdeparture (unless it was cut).

Everything that Bear McCreary said about the role of music in Tolkien's work and what it meant to him is like poetry (especially the part where he said he was already creating music for the LOTR universe in the back of his mind decades before being hired for the series). He's so attuned to Tolkien's work, so immersed in Howard Shore's soundtracks for the films and in Peter Jackson's adaptations, that contributing to the series is really a dream coming true for him, which explains why he reacts in such powerful and vibrant way to it.

I discovered his work on Battlestar Galactica (2005), the best Sci-Fi show ever made, and to say he fell deeply in love with this show and felt it in his bones wouldn't convey even enough how composing for BSG was intense for him. BSG soundtracks were his greatest work ever. I feel the same level of dedication here and it's moving.

The actors, writer and director are talking a lot also about Galadriel and Halbrand's relationship, so it's a good BTS episode for their fans too.

today's fish project: so i have two non display breeders now, a 20 and a 10, and I've realized that some amount of scaping just makes everything more enjoyable for me so while I'm keeping the 10 bare bottom for function like isolation, grow out, etc, I'm putting in substrate on the 20 for the purpose of growing plants, and MAYBE it will become a snail only tank, plus blue dream neo shrimp to sell.

and i want it to look little a nice.

then here's the mess of a 10 holding everything lol. since it'll stay bare bottom

love this show v much but it has So Many editing/scene switch problems that it's occasionally a legitimate continuity problem

slaps roof of me this bad boy can fit so much grief inside it
