Whoever wrote Rick's Multiversus dialogue did a good job capturing his snarkiness without overdoing it. Somebody on Twitter said he wasn't mean enough, but...eh. I liked how he had positive interactions with some of the characters, especially The Powerpuff Girls. Constantly reaming all the other characters and the player would've gotten old.
Have I ever shown you guys these weird late 80s Soviet Lord Of The Rings illustrations?
They were made by Sergei Iukhimov, whoโs virtually unknown otherwise.
full disclosure I orig wanted to make part 2 of the wolf hall brat edit (feat Thomas More as Lorde) but I scrapped it cos i didn't really have enough footage BUT the overwhelmingly lovely response from you guys to part 1 has enabled me I fear. Watch this space
tumblr discourse after 13 years on this fucking website
Hello there! A long time ago on Twitter, I saw a post from you involving potential stories you'd like to do in the future, one of them involving Davy Jones as a bounty hunter. Out of curiosity, does your Davy look anything like the one from the Pirates of the Caribbean films?
Dave Jones! He wasn't a bounty hunter, but he was a ghost (and demons maybe) hunter! I'm honestly not sure if I wanna go forward with making his story into a comic. He MIGHT do better in the form of a video game tbh!
Which is EXTREMELY ambitious to make, yeah, but I gotta go with my gut feeling on this one.
I don't think he looks too much like Davy Jones from POTC? Like, he's got the face tentacles but I'd say that's the only real similarity.
For reference, here's a sketch I very very quickly did for you for him so you can see for yourself (VERY ROUGH, I DID THIS IN LIKE 5 MINUTES)
I do have a question. Itโs something a struggle with and wanted to know how you keep it from happening.
I know you have made this comic. But I am curious. How do you keep motivated to just, keep writing for it? And when you are writing do you plan several pages ahead, like what you already want to go down and how it should happen? (Sorry if thatโs confusing I am trying to explain it the best I can)
Typically, and ideally, when writing a script, getting it fully written first before tackling the art is the way to go. I didn't do that. Since I went about it a nonsensical way, I'm loosely following along a bunch of key story beats but otherwise totally rewriting my story for a comic format. I've written as much of it as I could, throwing down those train tracks as the train continues rolling forward, though at this point I've bought enough time to write in a much less panicked frenzy. So, basically, to answer your second question, I've written full chapters ahead of where we are in the comic right now. I hope this answer can be understood by anyone besides me, the alien goo monster attempting to pass along thought to human written speech.
Now, as for the first question;
Motivation is a tough thing to wrangle. When I feel motivated, it's normally because I've gotten to an exciting part of my story and I can't wait to share it with my early readers. That feeling within me was the demon that had me bang on my keyboard until I ended up with three full chapters (3-5) written. It's a demon that may help you (though there's no guarantee). As someone who probably has undiagnosed ADHD, lemme make that suggestion for you. Try finding an early reader who you feel would enjoy your work. Even if that early reader is, like, your mom or something. I dunno. I share Infested with my mom.
or maybe don't share your script with your mom i dunno.
But! Uh! Yeah! I hope you can take anything positive away from this answer!
Please Give me your attention ๐
Please read this as if i were a member of your family. Maybe your sister, your daughter or your friend. As if my family who is going through difficult circumstances is your family.
Hello, I'm Ola, a graduate student from the faculty of science - Al-Azhar University in G@za P@lestine. I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my story. As you reading my message, myself and my family, โmy mother, father, three sisters, and my little brother,โ are trying to survive under all kinds of suffering including but not limited to fear, instability, and starvation, thirst, and poverty in northern G@za.
After 508 days of suffering, I am writing to you today with a heavy heart, in desperate need of your help. I can't describe how harsh the situation we are living in is. My family is suffering from the biting cold of winter, and we are facing a severe shortage of food and clothing. Every day feels like a lifetime, and every moment makes me feel helpless and hopeless. ๐
After the prices went up so crazy, I created this campaign to help my family provide food, water and essential needs. I know for sure that you can't help all families that want your help but at least you can help those who come across your life.
Every simple thing makes a difference in changing the situation we are in. So please don't hesitate to help us ๐๐
Thank you for taking a minute to read this.โฅ๏ธ

DeviantArt has never really been a parade of good advice for growing artists, but some particular โwords of wisdomโ are way more bothersome than others.
