You're about to close on your very own, suspiciously affordable and comfortable house. Just before you sign the contract, the realtor shows you the required legal disclosure: your new house is haunted by the type of presence you'll get from this spinner wheel.

Of course it is.

i am weak for these bastards U_U'

the kiddos; Panama Sip, Freia Hendrikson and Matteo Ossler! lil ragtag group of students with their own quirks and passions - ready to uncover the mysteries of Trolberg!

[ player characters for my Hilda fan TTRPG ]

when they come across a suspicious fellow, hurling insults and jests out of an apartment window, they decide to investigate.

a crowd has gathered beneath the awning, confused and irritated at the berating comments - and Trevor (we know him, we love him) decides to take action. with the intent of spooking whoever the figure is to stop, he ascends the stairs to the right hallway, seeing the being at the windowsill.

the fellow gets spooked - yes - but not before losing its balance.

with a tumble, it drops from the sill.

but all that hits the ground is a broken, clay plant-pot - the being nowhere to be seen.

-

will they figure out the mystery of whatever this fellow was? do they end up siding with the thing, or teaching it a valuable lesson?

[ if you ever wish to snag a Hilda -themed commission, feel free to send me a message over on discord @/spicypineneedles ♡ ]

we'll just have to wait and see, won't we? ;]

thought you all might enjoy some older art - the crow father himself, Philza Minecraft!!

i really enjoyed watching his content during the d/qsmp era, though i wasn't too interested in the rest of the lore/happenings/drama surrounding the servers :] should pop by his streams again nowadays, i think..

CROW FUCK YEEAAAHHH

good news! you're an animorph! bad news! you didn't know about the two-hour limit and got stuck in your first morph, which is whatever this wheel lands on

You've been isekai'd into a fictional setting. Spin this wheel to find out which one.

--the... the daycare--- the day... the --- day.... these bots have me in a fucking chokehold

the dirt man and ocean man are the opposite ends of the same spectrum

ミ✰ BIRTHDAY EVENT! A SONA PARTY! ♪

🎊 toki! I'm Muffin! Let's celebrate by drawing our sonas in silly party outfits 🎊

For my birthday (Dec 2nd) I thought… what would be a better gift than getting to see so many diffrent sonas? Especially if it’s of my friends, moots and possible future friends! I designed a party version of my sona and am hoping others will draw their own sonas in outfits to match that aesthetic

The plan is to draw submitted sonas in a big drawing at the end of the event! If you’re interested feel free to read more but if not please reblog this post anyway so that others can participate!

How To Participate:

1. Reblog this post with the specific tag #RSVP so I know you’re interested! 🎉

2. Submit your sona design! I am gathering the designs beforehand to hopefully get a head start on the group drawing. You can submit a design by sending me an ask with a reference! Simply draw your sona matching the outfit shown below. It can be a quick sketch, I just request it be fully colored- Also please include height or approximate size plus any other important details in the ask!

3. Attend the magma! I will have a magma open Nov 29th - Dec 3rd where I’ll be drawing and doodling throughout the days ( this is optional! But feel free to join me! )

4. I will do my best to draw all sonas submitted to me before Dec 1st in a group photo!

Thank you for Reading! ☆

gonna start posting my artfight attacks once the mods fix the hellsite /lh ♡

gonna make this a lil thread for all of 'em :]

late notice -- whatever-- hey, come say hi over on artfight!!! :D https://artfight.net/~spicypineneedles

been on a clown roll lately! here are some color-experimentation sketches along with my self-insert... oc? thingy? for @bamsara's Solar Lunacy universe!! I've been binging that shit for about a week straight- and the brainrot is real... (more rambles under the cut)

I've become an actual irl menace to my partner about sun/moon -related content because of Solar Lunacy :'D just- binging videos, playlists, fics, all that jazz! i haven't been more energetic/happy in a long while tho, and - even as a fictional character - bamsara's sun is hella infectious >:] i might probably clean up the doodle below- but for this being my first time drawing the daycare attendants its-- ok :] the absolute struggle i had with trying to figure out which side of their chassis' are colored-- and the poses gave me such trouble :sob: the little name-tag card in the middle was originally designed by bamsara (as you can see here), but i wanted to try and give my own little color-spin on it! <3 -- Other than that! the little fella in the top-right corner is an absolutely adorkable little cutie i found at the bottom of a bowl! (see the lil button image of him w/ his little flute-thingy) and i so had to draw him ;O; lil goober that i still need to try and make more skrunkly, somehow...

worldbuilding thoughts #1

juggalo/clown peacemakers :)

for my world, im so gonna make a group of juggalo, or juggalo-adjacent folk who are the main law-enforcement in a whole-ass region...

inspired by the fact that a lot of gangs have relations to the juggalo, even though the gangs have beef between themselves... juggalos are the stabilizing factor

also by homestuck, but thats neither here nor there :)

should i make a separate blog for my avatar docs/toyhou.se/screenshots shit? and keep this as a self-indulgent fanart blog?

!UPDATE

just managed to finish all of the barks!! doing the icons is quite easy once you get the lil' material indicator thing on the lower corner.... aside from that - i just updated the directory for the doc (made them more readable, and not as horribly sequenced...) time to go back to work! still got about... 200 more items to go :')

going for something a little different, but- we'll see who this reaches!

a lil sneak-peek of a google docs im working on! i've been a bit of a hard time trying to find materials in Avatar Frontiers, and the fact that all the maps are half fogged-up on every website kinda annoys me ^^' so i planned on making my own!

every single item will be on the docs, and right now i have almost 70 items on the list! (still gotta do full wiki pages like with the two images on top...)

anyhow! send over a message if you want early access to the docs! ♡

most of the pages look like the image on the right- but i think its plenty of info to locate materials! (the rest of the stuff is mostly descriptions/technical info from the hunter's guide)

got some sudden expenses, so im officially opening up my Hilda commissions!!

if you like what you're seeing, send over a message and we can discuss the detes! ✧

OPEN SLOTS: 2/5

very much agree with this... growing to appreciate your body and self with little things at a time..

dont usually reblog stuff on main, but this is really important ♡♡

The whole self love thing is good and all but some people can’t fathom being loved. They can’t imagine there being anything good about them. So they can’t simply just stop doing unhealthy things, there’s a process.

pics of my sona (syu'evi) in frontiers! finally managed to gather my final look!

bunch more screenshots of npcs, environments etc. under the cut!

mm okul my beloved ♡ along with relun, who grew on me, and a random kame'tire member who i met near meadow's edge field lab.. such a pretty lad in a pretty place (further screenshots below)

i absolutely adore the lush greenery of the Kinglor Forest - and flying around with your ikran, or finding the occasional direhorse is always a blast! plus, the surprising diversity and recognizability of the different biomes is so wonderfully executed ♡

oh man, the upper plains... the colors immediately struck me- especially around the crimson biomes, and the purple steppe! along with the environment, the zeswa have such a wonderful type of artistry to them! dancing, singing, painting! absolutely gorgeous ♡♡

and of course, who could forget the clouded forest ♡♡♡♡ man, such a different biome from what we've seen in the franchise so far -- and it did Not dissappoint! wonderful areas, gorgeous colors, and the atmosphere is so clear and recognisable! you can almost feel the humidness in the air ⊹

I plan to make a Fakemon inspired by Wolfwalkers, their humans who can leave their bodies and become wolf-like pokemon when they sleep.

How would I design them

Oh, thats a really cool idea!! ♡ I'm not really one for giving advice on design principles, but I'll try and jot down some thoughts on what I'd do if I were to design that sorta fakemon... :]

Suppose you'd still wanna keep the pokemon-style. In that case, I'd look at some already wolf-ish pokemon as reference -- if you would like for them to be quadrupedal (on four legs) like poochyena or lycanrock, or bipedal (on two legs) like zoroark or lucario? Figure out how human you'd want their pokemon-forms to be! This is also a great place to take inspiration from other sources too; digimon or other media, fantasy creatures, historical depictions of werewolves, mythical wolves in general, etc! You can make them more wolf-like, or try exaggerating some of the features - longer or shorter legs, bodies, extra appendages, ears, tails - whatever you want! Next, I'd go for themes- would you want for them to have a typical sort of full-moon, uncontrolled transformation? Would this show up in their design in any way (scraps of clothing, stretch marks, or more human-like base features)? Or would you rather have it more fluid and magical, like in Wolfwalkers - and how would this relate to their design (swirling patterns like Robyn and Mebh when they use druidic magic, some sort of magical aura, or other magical traits)? You can also go for more common themes like sleep, the moon, plantlife, claws, and eyes, and try to make this something that stands out for your fakemon! - Like if you look at lycanrock's base form, that's very clearly a wolf with rocks. Meanwhile, a pokemon like Musharna doesn't really... seem like a tapir - the animal it's most likely based on - but it very well conveys the aspect of Sleep in its design!

The themes and source material can also influence a lot of your color choices! (warm like the woods in Wolfwalkers, or more cold like the night-sky) Figuring out the limits and how far you can stretch your design while keeping it recognizable is a really fun challenge, and something that doodling could help with! References, feedback and multiple iterations are also a great part of the process!

Anyhows- hope that helps a little, and thank you sm for sending over the question! ♡

more art in the same day??? man, im just clearing out my backlog of art and yall won't hear of me for another 3 months lmao anyhows!! any of yall seen wolfwalkers?? i would die for that movie so bad-- cartoon saloon really knocked it outta the park w/ this one... drew me n' my best friend over as wolfwalkers - little wolf shapeshifters ♡ backgrounds are from the movie itself, i had nothin' to do with those :]
