RVBFDS shines the spotlight on the sprite artist for Grif, Hemloqd! Hemloqd's wonderful style truly comes through in their design of Dexter Grif and we can't wait for you to see their hard work come to fruition! You can find them @hemloqd on Twitter, Instagram, and Tumblr!
hiii fist time asking you anything 🙏🙏 im not gonna lie it's just bc i'm noisy and want to (maybe) spoil myself a few things lmao but i hope that i'll ask more things in the future
so anyways here are a few words i wanna know abt: nice/eat(ing)/cute/soft
(yeah most of them are fluff related words, a man can dream)
Omg hello beautiful artist friend :)))
You ask me whatever you want, whenever you want, I’ll be here
Ohhhhhh fluff words ok let’s see….
Nice:
Of course it all came crashing down afterwards, but it was nice for that brief time.
Eat:
“They should all be eating dinner anyway.”
Cute:
Nope :/ (but chaptwr isn’t finished yet so you never know!!:))
Soft:
The man’s cold expression softened in an effort to show the boy he approved of that answer.
Just to make a point, every time I finished a panel of this I would export it as a PNG on the perceptual setting and use it as a color reference for the next panel
IT'S BAD
PLEASE CHECK YOUR COLOR SETTINGS
EDIT: If you're still having problems, it might help to switch from "Save/Save as" to "Export (as a) Single Layer". Just. Make SURE the box labeled "Expression Color" is set to RGB. I've been messing with this all day, and it looks like this combination of settings will allow exported PNGs to maintain their colors perfectly. To you. So far both Discord and Toyhouse still only display desaturated images and I cannot for the life of me figure out why
this is so bad but i permanently cropped the file so brutally that i can no longer edit it. whoops! also panels 4-7 were fully coloured but it looks better without for some reason. pomni (penny?) is such an ugly crier. i love my horrible failgirl accountant
Obligatory Alastor and Niffty art because their little moment in the finale was everything to me I can't wait to see them interact more in the next seasons
Also bonus sketch bc I just know he kept the crown on the whole evening
god I fuckign love ocs. my characters. my friend's characters. the characters of mutuals ive never spoken to. the characters of artists ive followed and maybe spoken to a little more. the characters of complete strangers I see in passing and think "aw that's cool". if you have ten fans I am one if you have one fan it is me etc etc. I love you
To illustrate this post by @mayahawkse I would like to visualize to you the difference:
A post in 2023:
A post in 2014:
A zoom out of the same post:
This is what a community looks like.
See how in 2023 almost all of the reblogs come from the OP, from their few hours/days in the tag search. Meanwhile in 2014 the % of reblogs from OP is insignificant, because most of the reblogs come from the reblogs within the fandom, within the micro-communities formed there. You didn't need to rely on tags, or search, or being featured. Because the community took care of you, made sure to pass the work between themselves and onto their blog and exposed their followers to it. It kept works alive for years.
It's not JUST the reblog/like ratio that causing this issue, it's the type of interaction people have. They're content with scrolling and liking the search engine, instead of actually having a reblogging relationship with other blogs in their community.
Anyways, if you want to see more content you like, the only true way to make it happen is to reblog it. Likes do not forward content in no way but making OP feel nice. Reblogs on the other hand make content eternal. They make it relevant, they make it exist outside of a fickle tumblr search that hardly works on the best of days.
