looks to my left. looks to my right
cross is a huge fucking crybaby. like he’s almost always on the verge of tears and i feel like that gets scrubbed out in most fandom spaces to make him the “stoic, emotionless and goal-driven solider” for the story. like im not trying to be mean for pointing out the mischaracterization but it is undoubtedly present. like it would make sense for someone that experienced what cross has (losing his family, getting manipulated by his former best friend’s sibling, realizing your abusive father was GOD, etc.)
i havent seen it in a while but the earlier cross ship content i’ve indulged in usually portrayed cross as either this baby that cant take care of himself without his partner or as this almost obsessive protector that was only really himself around them. (not sure if im wording this right bro 😓💔) but what im getting at is that just didnt Feel like cross. i understand the appeal and everything but im just 💔💔
i do enjoy when fics make him a huge dork bc as serious as cross can be, he’s an idiot. he’d do all these romantic gestures and shit and just ARRGHHH. im thinking abt the art jakei made with x!red and cross giving her roses. like yeah he’d do that fr

aand last but not least - I don't have any refs yet, but I can offer you all some concepts for some upcoming WOF designs! :D (They're free to draw as concepts, but please credit me and show me!! The final design may change ever so slightly but not a lot probably - Moon is not a new design, just being redone ever so slightly!)
Willow, Sundew, Moon and Freedom!

How to Make Replicas of Your Own Teeth: A Cosplay Toothtorial
Tumblr media
This is a method to safely use a molded mouth guard to make duplicates of your own teeth without destroying a potentially expensive piece of dental equipment. Everything that goes into the mold—clay and mold release aid—must be nontoxic/edible so you can wash your mouth guard at the end of the process and continue to use it as normal. 
Benefits: No mold-making or casting experience required Lightweight end result Adds a truly personal touch to your project :)
Downsides: Must own a molded mouth guard/retainer End result can be fragile and needs proper sealing for durability
Supplies
Molded mouth guard/retainer (referred to as “mold” from here on)
Cornstarch
Soft/fluffy brush
Non-toxic white air dry clay (I used Crayola Model Magic)
Craft knife
Jewelry wire (I used 20 or 22 gauge)
Pins/yarn needle/any various household implements you can sculpt or smooth small details with
Acrylic paints and a variety paint brushes
Clear glossy top coat (I used Mod Podge (satin) and UV Resin)
Prep
Brush or otherwise clean your mouth guard if you haven’t already, especially if there’s build-up.
If you’re using your container of cornstarch for cooking, set aside a small container specifically for crafting. No accidental cross-contamination here!
Dip your fluffy brush into cornstarch and brush into your DRY mouth guard. Lightly coat the entire mold and distribute any clumps. This coat of cornstarch will make it easier to remove your teeth from the mold.
Tumblr media
Molding
Tumblr media
Firmly press clay into the mold so that approximately half is in the mold, half is sticking out for root sculpting. Make sure there are no air pockets or you won’t pick up the details. 
Use detail scissors/craft knife to cut away excess material and indent to mark out the divisions between teeth as visible on the gum lines (see above)
Reference a tooth diagram like the one below and separate out the roots for each tooth. Front teeth tend to have 1 leg, middle teeth have 2 legs, and some molars have 3+. I personally found that my limit was 2 roots. Sculpting 3+ roots on a single tooth was more difficult and more fragile than anatomical accuracy was worth. 
Tumblr media
Demolding
You can demold immediately after sculpting or wait up to an hour. The faster you remove the teeth, the easier they are to reshape. The longer you wait, the more they resist unintentional denting BUT the more touch-ups you'll have to do to clean the edges between teeth.
Gently lift the full row of teeth from the mold. If it won't release when you tip the mold or or push at it, try using a pin to stab one of the end teeth and use that to pry up the teeth. The rest of the row should follow. If they don't, try repeating for the other side. If they're still not lifting, set aside to dry and try again ~15-30min later.
Gently cut apart the u-shape into individual teeth.
Press raw cut edges in and smooth with various tools, like a yarn needle. Use a craft knife to help trim off any excess clay.
Tumblr media
Touch-ups
In the case of air pockets or if you accidentally remove a root, wet some clay and use a very small amount to fill in gaps or add on roots. Don't forget the water! It makes the clay stickier and smooth out better. This is where tools come in handy, wet clay sticks less to smooth objects than your fingertips!
Once repaired, set aside any wet pieces to dry for at least 15min before doing any more sculpting work.
Set all teeth aside to dry for several hours on a wax paper or other non-stick surface. Make sure it's not textured or it will leave an imprint on your teeth!
Tumblr media
Flaws like the chip on the top left tooth and the cracks on the middle bottom teeth are great candidates for smoothing out with a little extra clay.
**PAUSE HERE AND CLEAN YOUR MOUTH GUARD**
I personally like to rinse it out with water and clean it with a dissolving denture cleaning tablet to make sure it’s fully sanitized. It also doesn’t hurt to properly brush the mouth guard to make sure there’s no clay or cornstarch residue stuck in the crevices.
Holes
Tumblr media
Test a tooth to check if it’s dry to the touch and doesn’t immediately deform to your touch. If it’s holding shape, you can move on.
Bore a hole into the tooth with a pin or jewelry wire. Consider how you want them to hang. A) For the central dangling teeth on Harrowhark’s choker, I punched holes as close to the tip of the root as possible without tears, perpendicular to the teeth so I could hang them on jump rings directly from the center brooch. B) For the teeth intended for Harrow’s tabard, I punched two sets of holes parallel to the jaw to prevent teeth from flipping around. One set just under the tooth cap, approx. 1/8in down, and one set about the same distance from the roots.
Once a hole has been punched with a pin, wiggle it around a little to open the hole or thread it on a piece of jewelry wire.
Leave teeth on a piece of wax paper or strung on a thread/wire to dry for ~48hr (or as recommended for your clay).
Painting/Weathering
Tumblr media
Mix a small amount of yellow-brown paint with water to create a wash (middle palette above). Paint all of your teeth with this first to establish a base color and help define any hairline cracks.
Paint with less diluted yellows and browns (right palette above). Refer to photos like the below for reference (try searching "teeth" and "archaeology"). NOTE: The root tends to be darker and more weathered than the main tooth because it isn't protected by enamel.
Dry brush ivory or white mixed with some yellow/brown onto the tooth cap to bring out highlights.
Tumblr media
Finishing
Your air dry clay teeth and paint job will need a top coat for protection. I highly recommend a glossy clear top coat to give the look of enamel. Below is a comparison of the two sealants I used, but there's many more options out there!
Tumblr media
UV Resin (Left) Pros: Harder/more durable Cures faster Cons: Need to work during daylight or use a UV light Harder to get a thin even layer Requires more set up and safety precautions
Satin Mod Podge (Right) Pros: Can be applied with a brush Air dries Cons: Takes longer to dry Teeth tend to stick together unless kept below room temp or kept from touching each other (I solve this by storing unused beads in an old pill bottle in the fridge. Yes it's cursed and Yes I've had comments from my housemates.)
As mentioned earlier, thread teeth on a wire or pin down to dry. This method also works well to set up for spray painting a clear coat.
Tumblr media
Now, go forth and enjoy everyone's reactions when you tell them that you're wearing your own teeth! :D

because at the end of it the entire theme of prime defenders season 2 is home.
it’s finding home in a place you once feared; getting closure with your origin and learning that home is the people around you and not always a set location. sometimes home can be more than one place.
it’s fighting tooth and nail against all odds to bring home what— who— matters most.
it’s opening up about where you came from and accepting that home wasn’t always an easy concept for you, but you’re ready to try again to find it. and you’re starting to think you already have.
it’s returning to the place which you once called home despite its bittersweet, mostly haunting memories. it’s staring the fear in the eye because behind that fear is the person who needs saving most.
and it’s taking your home— your friends— by the hands and plunging into that fear together.

Hello guys! It's been a bit - I'm still working on designs! I have just been busy with holiday art and commissions/owed art. I have lots of WOF, PKMN and HK designs coming up soon, so look forward to those! While i've been busy, I have been doing some concepts - one of said concepts is shown above! I am revamping my Darkstalker and Clearsight designs a little bit and making some adjustments to them! Expect updated refs for them soon, alongside with simplified versions with notes abt stuff since they'll def be needing it haha
Very happy with their redesigns though! I was already pretty proud of their old designs, but i'm even happier with them now!

Honestly, your comics about the Emperor have really helped me parse my own complicated feelings about him. Because like, it's not as if I didn't want to trust him and find that good in him. There were times when I felt like I could see it. But as I played more, I just felt like that trust wasn't truly reciprocated.
Anyway, apologies for the rambling. Your art and comics are awesome, and Greygold is great.
I've been trying to think how to respond to this because I can RELATE but in a - beyond constructively sophisticated sounding words- way huar.
Because without -ANY- kind of hindsight, Zip Zilch NADA, this game is really REALLY good (OH SO GOOD) at portraying the Emperor as a very complicated and extremely-hard-to-trust character.
You are absolutely valid in feeling conflicted and confused with all the uncertain-in-between inner conflicts for this dingus of a squid.
Unlike Greygold, I, too, was absolutely struggling to find some form of strong evidence, validation, reassurance, SOMETHING FOOL-PROOF, to fully trust this illithid during the entire playthrough.
If it weren't for the bloodhound hunting need to find all that is lore in this game, BOY WOULD IT HAVE ALMOST BEEN NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO TRUST THIS SQUID AT ALL for me. Those lil sneaky paper trail crumbs of 'emps just doing it's best' are what gave me enough hope to trust in spite of the overwhelming counter-lore, doubts, and Emps' terrible tact continuously just NOT HELPING IT'S CASE.
but Trust. Trust is, I suppose, the key theme for this squid. Classic 'ultimately down to your core values on what you would do with the most trust-issue-y morally grey squid to ever squid this damn squid game'.
Or as friggin' Withers likes to say: What is the value of one life to you? (friggin' Withers, man)

the shipping spectrum truly is just "the idle fleeting thought that he was a star crossed my mind" "It's not impossible just very hard!" "Bokuto-san" "AGHASHEEEEE" "we are the protagonists of the world"
to
"smile spikey, you look better when you smile" "he is reason enough for me to fight" "I made a friend, he ain't as dumb as I am" "don't worry, I'm a friend of Nicholas" "after all was said and done, I wanted to share my tomorrows with him"
