Dragon 2 sketches!
Back in 2010 when the first movie came out, I was OBSESSED with their racehorse type of riding, the character design, the mechanics of the saddle, EVERYTHING. I wrote entire essays on livejournal including ‘studies’, and harassed the designer of the saddle for answers on deviantart.
I’ve always had an interest in character design and feature animation, but looking back, this movie really sparked something serious in me. Dreamworks studio seemed further away than the moon (still does) but for the first time I felt like looking in the kitchen and actually understanding what was going on.
By then I was in the final stage of med school and didn’t entertain any serious ambitions towards design. But I remember the immense joy this movie and my new discoveries gave me, purely as a hobby.
Never in a million years would my clumsy younger self have guessed that by 2014 I’d be a full-time character designer in a city halfway across the world, sitting in a cinema in Vancouver to watch the sequel.
In short: I owe a LOT to the people behind these films. Thank you.
i would kill a man so many men for this fucking jacket
My secret is that I love physical media. My aunt gave me a big box of movies she didn’t want and I felt like a kid on Christmas.
They actually make physical media for a much larger percentage of movies than they ever did in the past. Often with a lot more care than any small release was treated in the early dvd days. Its just if you only watch streaming stuff or the big new recent box office hits you won't see that. It is so ridiculously easy to get physical media for movies that even 5 years ago you couldn't even find. Like yes Netflix is a stingy bastard but so many things are available on disc WITH special features than ever before

Love this!!! But also LOVE reading an active series. It’s like waiting for the next episode of your fav show to come out.
my sense of humor: getting birthday cards with the wildly incorrect age on it for people

(No I will not do a part 2!❤️)
when i was a freshman in high school (10ish years ago), i met this girl named abi (she was my gay awakening and now we are very very dear friends 🫶🏼). i introduced her to sherlock after i saw her wearing a dr who shirt one day, and she and i let the show absolutely rot our brains. she would beta my johnlock fic for me, but i wrote my fic on paper LOL! and we passed notes in class as sherlock and dr watson (i was sherlock, she was my jawn).
and now we’re both older and i’m driving down to visit her for the first time in months tomorrow and it’s been almost 10 years but my first thought was “i’m so excited to see my jawn!” and it’s just crazy how fandom can do that to people.
Got some fics rattling around in the ol’ noggin. May write about it. AO3 is @cozy_josieJosie | 23 | She/TheyPlease ask me questions(or just tell me your favorite color) :)
