been doodling some bri'ish wildlife - love seeing these guys. because they are the classics aren't they?

#my art #animal art #illustration #''love seeing these guys'' has only ever seen 6 of them #as if the elusive dormouse would ever grace my presence. and i still doubt the existence of snakes in england #drew the fox and pheasant because they're symbolic for two of my silly ocs then was like why not make a whole page of these suckers #lots of fun! if anyone's interested i'm gonna open up some slots to draw animals like this on kofi or something soon #can be pets etc. ocs too maybe but they'll be more expensive. not sure how much i'll charge for them but we shall see #lots of art to come...........i swear on it...........i'm about to go for a walk and maybe i will finally see a grass snake #(it's raining so this will not happen)#animals: ring necked pheasant. grass snake. european badger. red fox. barbastelle bat. mole. red squirrel. hazel dormouse. and hedgehawg #i had to compress this to hell it's so large #i need to take like a base photoshop class to learn how to actually use it cause the size of my files is actualy getting ridiculous #if i didn't compress this it would be 30 mb. this cannot be normal

added tattoos and some skin details :)

#hinnry pulled off the commune just having a rocking twink body is so funny to me. he should have been at the CLUB #he's a lot softer here bc this is toward the end of the Events but his hands are actually really rough and cut up and scraped #this skin actually had hands like that and i never noticed???? i just changed the stomach and gave him back dimples and he's golden #anyway ilya tattoos. the roman numerals are when his dad died then the squirrel skeleton bc yknow #the bird thing on his back thigh is because he does taxidermy. badly. and the rest he just thought looked cool #and yeah that's ilya's handwriting on his name he did that one at home. as their relationship was deteriorating rapidly! :)#ts4 #ts4 edit #ts4 render #the sims 4 #hinnry #ilya #two-headed lamb

fully expected you to say that neuvillette was your favorite because he shares a voice actor with rollo lol

Omg yeah that's one detail among others to why I love Neuvillette aaah!!!

But tbh Hiroshi Kamiya voiced a lot of characters that I love very much ! (and I haven't watched any gundam but he voices a character with a bowlcut so I might watch gundam 00 just for him/her??...)

#tried to respect everyone's heights #didn't expect Law to be the tallest but tbh given how height works in one piece he's on the short end when you think about it...#also Law was a middle school fictional crush idk I have no explanation but he was a long term brainrot character and I still like him a lot #loving saiki k on a relatable level communication issues with others and in need of sugar yeah bro same...#I will not elaborate on the squirrel

part two of just loving when louis and lestat are in-frame together being a COUPLE. a united (or at least coexisting) front. us vs them. i get why louis didn't dwell on the nice stuff, but I can still enjoy reading between the lines in places?

my dreams are of the unseen honeymoon-period golden-years Adventures of Louis and Lestat being murderous smitten breathing-in-sync partners in crime.

iwtv s1 louis + lestat together in frame, 2/3 (part 1, part 3)

#iwtv #amc iwtv #interview with the vampire #louis de pointe du lac #lestat de lioncourt #loustat #i just have a lot of feelings about this lol #i have to save up like a squirrel for a long fuckin' winter because this content is SO UNLIKELY in s2 #these guys

the horrifying implications of Cinderpelt as a pawn of Starclan- trying everything she can to unsuccessfully stop her apprentice from leaving because she's terrified of the internalised idea of "failing" her clan and her job due to her impending death, while unaware that the entire Crowpool situation is intentional by Starclan for their own benefit to initiate the Power of Three prophecy and that her death in itself is to be Leafpool's motivation to stay- the idea that the stars, the ancestors and family and friends she devoted her life to always meant for her to die young and hopeless and were willing to manipulate her emotionally for the best outcome for them- is alone a piece of her character that's infinitely more heartwrenching and tragic and interesting than "she actually had a crush on Firestar and she's sad she can't date him :((" and I'm so mad that the latter is her primary legacy instead of any interpretations of her as a character that go beyond boring forbidden romance #17 that was barely even implied to begin with

#im sorry but with knowledge of how fucked up starclan is what they did to cinderpelt is. horrifyinggg #this specific interpretation is maybe a bit of a reach but it goes hand in hand with them lying to squirrel and leaf and so on #and also makes more sense in-universe as to why they 'reincarnated' her afterwards than literally just a cocktail of fanservice and ableism #hey sorry we put you on an inevitable death sentence so your apprentice could get pregnant but stay here lol. you can uh possess ur niece i #anyways sorry for all the cinderpelt talk ive been thinking a lot about her lately #she has such a weird reception in the fandom in that she's considered a 'fan favourite' but literally nobody cares about her too much #theres only like 4 cinderpelt maps with over 100k views and theyre all a couple years old at least #for good reason probably because there's a lot of ableism around her both canon and fanon #but still it's a wee shame since she's such a major character to the first two arcs that the little fanon about her there is is kinda borin #cinderpelt #warrior cats #i think shes a lesbian and i also think she should have been allowed to kill someone for fun

🎏Immersion, its quirks, and tips for language learning this way!

its the 5th of May, so happy children's day! 🎏 I got a question in one of my posts asking for some advice on immersion learning! i thought it would be a good opportunity to talk about immersion in general, my current study(?) routine and perhaps give some useful advice! As the name suggests, Immersion language learning is done primarily by consuming media in your target language. Immersion can seem super intimidating to us learners, mostly cause we can't understand most of the stuff available to us. But! its not impossible to start out using immersion right out of the gate. i think people tend to get scared or go "I'll immerse when i get better at my TL!" But the truth of the matter is, your not going to get used to, or better at your target language unless you consume actual content. (in my opinion.)

Honestly, a lot of immersion learning is being able to tolerate that i probably wont understand everything right away. I will someday, but for now i have to be comfortable with not understanding a lot. which is okay! So, what is my current study routine?

right now, my routine consists of:

doing vocabulary cards on Anki from a premade anki deck.

playing about an hour of Animal crossing everyday

watching 1 - 3 episodes of an anime

watching Youtube videos

weekly (ish) grammar done by reading Imabi, and watching Cure Dolly videos on Youtube.

The bread and butter of my routine is learning vocab, and occasional grammar studies. I'm using the core2k/6k deck. which as the name implies, is an optimized vocab deck that contains the most common 6k JP vocabulary. i currently take 5 new vocab cards a day, and try to get my reviews in everyday. my anki deck has contributed a lot to me being able to immerse so early in my language journey. learning and then reviewing new words everyday lets me recognize words in my immersion. As time has gone on, i can recognize more and more words, and even some words I haven't encountered yet in my deck. Immersion, while still uncomfortable, (especially with complex media) is the other side of the coin. i try to spend double the time i spend on anki, immersing. Mostly because i enjoy what I'm immersing in, but also because i get more out of it the more time i spend immersing.

"that's all well and good Lucky, but what advice would you give to someone who wants to learn this way?"

Well! first of all, and this is very important:

Be comfortable with ambiguity. you may not be able to understand some, or maybe most of the thing you are immersing in. that's okay! Your brain is already looking for patterns to see in your TL, and is growing more accustomed to it. I got a lot of headaches in the beginning, i still do actually. but i know that's my brain working hard! (take a break if you get a headache!!)

Second, and probably just as important:

Follow your interests. make immersion fun! whats the point of immersing if its torturous?! I'm a lot more likely to continue immersing in something if i actually enjoy it. there are a lot of easier anime to immerse in, but if I'm not having fun, I'm not going to learn anything. you should do the same! even if its too difficult to understand. I'm currently watching someone on YouTube play a dating sim, and even though its waaaay above my skill level, I'm really enjoying myself watching it! I've even recognized some words i know. whole sentences, even.

Third:

Be Consistent! This is probably advice you've already heard, but it bears repeating! even if you do something small like listening to a song in your TL, that's immersion babyy :) consistency is key, above all.

Lastly: Track your Immersion. a problem with immersion is it can feel like you are going nowhere. tracking how much time you spend doing an activity, (watching videos, reading, etc) is a great way to make immersion more tangible. lots of people reccomend toggl, but i personally use polylogger. its built with language learners in mind, and is stupidly easy to use. i also keep personal logs in an online diary, as well as here on my blog to measure my progress. it helps!

alright, i think thats everything i have to say for now! if you've made it to the end of this long post, hello! and thank you <3 hope you've had a good day so far! I will leave you with some links to more reading on the subject under the cut, they go into more detail than i have here.

take care for now! またね！

look i love animal/plant/insect id forums, subreddits etc. but it is utterly saddening how many people are clueless about common natural things around them.

#not dogs #wildlife #what do you mean you can't identify a fox that's around your neighborhood every day #what do you mean you don't know what a common squirrel looks like or a rat vs a mouse???#idk it is just me and my obsession with wildlife and plant identification booklets as a kid #but i think we should all teach folks a lot more about the natural environments around them (even urban ones!)#ecosystems be so cool #but also i like if i see something i don't know i run to our state's fish and wildlife page and see if i can id it and usually that's enoug

art of fishers design or something idk

#my art #rain world #okay some scug design notes to clarify: scugs are furless and rodents to me. fucked up squirrels in particular but it depends on the sc ig #while they aren't cats they have fur (skin) patterns like them. arti is a red tortie :thumbs up #also arti is wearing a bomb-harness made out of lizard skin to keep grenades in reach to bomb jump. far from canon but i thought it was nea #oh and arti sometimes releases smoke. like a mini dragon. okay thats it i think #whoops almost fogor. secret karma 1 symbol. if i make more slug cats design a lot of characters will feature karma symbols #rw artificer

random question, sorry, but does ollie eat vegetables? like, based on his (visible) teeth, he looks like he eats mostly meat, but IS he primarily carnivorous or does he have a more balanced diet? also, what would his favourite vegetable be?

Yup Ollie eats his veggies! His diet is mainly carnivorous hence his teeth and his stomach acid is really acidic and well designed to digest raw meat and anything that may come with it, bones n all. Unlike Ponti who almost strictly eats meat if not junk food and typically can't stand veggies (or does the whole 'i tried it one (1) time and it was gross😤 ') , Ollie doesn't mind vegetables and will cook them with the meat dish if he can. As a kid he was often the lil spice and veggie gatherer if he wasn't hunting so he's no stranger to veggies but I feel like if he was in his orc community still, he would rely on meat a whole lot more and his body would still be well adapt for it 👍 recently i picture Ollie to be more like a panther or something if he were to be associated with an animal bc while he is large as fuck and can throw his weight around he can also be terrifyingly silent since he is considered a carnivore and needs to be able to successfully hunt, same with agility bc how else would his big ass be so good at skateboarding lmfao BUT since he's in "America but more annoying" basically and doesn't really hunt for food anymore since it's at stores so his food palette is pretty diverse. Sometimes he'll still just eat the meat raw though just bc he can and he likes the taste sksksk his bloodthrist is too ingrained into him

#ollie #in fact when ollie first moved to the city and remys mom was being shit he would just hunt squirrels n racoons what have u #like a feral child all up in the trees squirrel in his mouth n all lmfao #mainly out of spite not because he didnt know any better oh He Knew #it was mainly just a rebellious thing he had goin now he abides by the rules more but will still take a few and hunt #deer or something #same with his growls and roars and other animalistic noises they probably sound a lot like a big cat or bear not just 'man growling'#OK shutting up be i ramble more but oc science is my passion lmfao

as I'm slowly tying up loose ends in my first playthrough (to FINALLY get to play the endgame already lol), I'm growing just a tiny bit sad here that Halsin doesn't really have an act 3 quest. like at all. not even nominally.

sure, his is a central quest of act 2, and pretty much the entirety of his romance is smushed into act 3, so I get how from a gameplay perspective it would probably have felt a bit oversaturated by him if there had also been a personal quest there. especially on top of him being a potential victim for Orin. but still, the way it all is now, the whole arc, it does feel to me a touch... lackluster, emotionally (which I'm sure the Halsin girlies have been saying for months).

Act 3 completes so many great emotional arcs. The reason it's taking me so bloody long to complete everything is because each big quest is... kind of emotionally exhausting. Practically everything you do, it fundamentally rocks someone's whole world, and after each quest, I need a nap to cope.

meanwhile Halsin is just.... chilling. He's there. He's... good. Wants to go to the forest, but otherwise, he's fine.

...... I'm afraid there's no way around it. I'm gonna have to get him kidnapped.

if you can't get organically grown emotional climax, homemade is fine I guess.

#squirrel plays bg3 #he can have SOME more emotional trauma. as a treat #and it'll have to be in the sewers to keep Scratch safe too...#sigh for a no-cheesing playthrough? i'll have to metagame a LOT for story purposes #that's one part where i'm probably gonna cheese the roll to intimidate Orin for story purposes #i mean. my boy is gonna be PISSED.#like scary-pissed.#oh it'll be fun #Arvid and Iona were/are worried for Lae'zel; sure; but not blinded by the pure visceral rage of the wild #that game is gonna be different for sure

Really digging out the old OCs now; Pan-na, Pilok, Azalea, squirrel boys Will and Damien, and Cupid and Venus <3 (Patreon)

#Doodles #Original #The Original Onslaught has begun >:) *stock maniacal laughter*#Lots of old faces! Lots of unfamiliar faces haha #You might actually recognize the last two individual boys as Blind Willie and Big Boy - those two I've Actually posted over here lol #The rest not so! Goshdang! I actually don't think I post Azalea much of anywhere lol like Maybe once on DA? Possibly? Heck #Same with Pan-na now that I think of it actually she's a Tomodachi Life-specific character haha #I had a few that despite not being fandom-tied I just can't get rid of to make room <3 They're residents! I'd miss them!#I really spoiled Pan-na - lots of cute clothes and a pretty room - so she gets special treatment in doodles too haha #Pilok was made while I was really into making original species on DA - anyone else here fill out the long development sheet? Fun stuff haha #I wish I'd finished a few more memes that got popular on DA back then ♪ Like the OC Remix! Very fun I made a rough of one years ago #Looking at Pilok now she kinda reminds me of the aliens from the DBZ special where Bardock gets sent to the past lol #Azalea was another random design that got a few doodles 'cause I thought she was edgy and cool haha #A more animalistic take on a stomachmouth - I don't think she can talk even she's just shaped like a humanoid maybe to blend in? Dunno #Oh looking back at my notes she was only supposed to have three fingers lol oh well #I don't think I ever drew her with her stomach open either but I'm pretty? sure I always imagined it being teeth-lined haha #Chomp #Squirrel boys! If you remember a few years ago I tried to draw Will again and was like ''>:?your face'' lol - I think I got it better now!#Still not 100% but better! He has very Shaped features haha #Big Boy turned out silly haha very one-large-anime-eyed - he deserves it lol #His hair falling over itself looked cool in my early doodles :0 Careful lines! Not so careful now lol #And Buzz is just missing haha #And finally Cupid and Venus <3 <3 I don't remember now but those two and their third girlfriend Spider might've been my first polycule? :0 #These two were a couple before inviting her in tho haha - there's a whole big backstory of how they met and all that #Venus was one of the main characters in Other Side of the Gun and then split off into her own side story with Cupid- It's a whole Thing #They're very sweet tho <3 I love them ♥#Kinda seasonal for Cupid haha I didn't plan that! Her favourite holiday is Valentine's Day of course
