Pastel fanart of one of @queen-jiru ‘s clone OC Peach, because I fell in love with him <3
Hunter should’ve thanked Crosshair for pulling Omega out of the sea. He didn’t do it because felt like he owed her… not entirely, anyway.
I’m reblogging this because it’s good to look back at where you came from ^_^
Okay, but hear me out…
I busted out the lines and color the day before yesterday! Don’t stay up till 3am making art, guys! You’ll regret it!
I cleaned my aquarium today and I counted four big, berried blue mamas! I’m gonna have so many shrimp babies soon!!!
As an irl emotional support human who also suffers from severe anxiety, I can confirm that adventures are what I was built for! It’s less scary when you have to do scary things with people who know what they’re doing, and it can make you braver in the moment because secretly, somewhere deep inside you, you know that you can do the scary thing! And working alongside people who also know you can do it, and encourage and depend upon you to do it will help you overcome your fear! Now as far as the emotional supporting, I’ve only ever done it platonically, so I can’t speak to how important the more private aspect can be. But I do know that providing people with support in the form of help with household work, external opinions on their schoolwork, company during a time when they just need someone in the room with them, a play partner to solve puzzles or strategize against, an organizational aide, good and thoughtful conversation, and someone simply to share a meal with can go miles in terms of helping their mental health. And yours too! If you are a person who enjoys doing these things for your people, then this role in their lives is as beneficial to you as it is to them. So don’t discount yourself as an emotional support human just because you suffer from crippling anxiety. I’ll bet if you examined your life, you’d find yourself already doing these things in perilous situations <333
Among the Bad Batch, we see a lot of the members actually fulfilling some of this role for each other: Crosshair and Echo running interference between Tech and Wrecker, Echo caring about the cleanliness of their shared living space, Hunter quietly keeping track of the medals the Batch has won together, Wrecker helping to regulate and vent emotions at the loss of Crosshair and Tech’s accidental apathy, Tech praising Omega for small victories, Omega’s ever-ready forgiveness especially when someone lets her down, Crosshair being physically present to Echo when the battle turned bad for them on Voss. All of this is emotional support human behavior.
I do think they could absolutely benefit from having a dedicated non-combatant who is the Emotional Support Human who wears the reflective vest and whose job it is to lay their head in their laps and help them through whatever rough stuff is going on this time. They have a lot of destructive behaviors that the Batch really aren’t equipped to handle for one-another. Like Hunter’s personality-shifting confrontation anxiety (I suspect Crosshair may have actually helped him with this one), Omega’s inappropriate selflessness, and Echo’s survivors’ guilt. There’s definitely still a place for us timid, anxious beans who just wanna give our favorite fictional characters some care and attention <333
Every time i think how fun it would be to go on adventurers with the batch my real life anxeity humbles me real quick. Like gurl your hands start to tremble everytime you have to drive somewhere unknown on your own, good luck on fighting with Gulags
My big sis did this to the back of our car on a road trip once. I was an unwitting accomplice. Our parents were SO MAD 😂
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! HE LOOKS SO GOOD I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!! I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!
he legit looks like his armor has the same weight and thickness as the cgi clones in Attack of the Clones. The colors are spot-on. I know the helmet and pauldron were a bit of a bother, since they’re custom. You did such an amazing job translating the art into a figure!!! I’m in awe!!! The weathering on the leather parts is even a different texture from the weathering on the plastoid parts! You made my dorky dad of a Commander look like such a badass!! I can’t wait to do my own photo shoot with him!!
Finished custom for @theartgremlin
A place for me to share my art as I learn how to draw digitally! (Apparently it’s important to share your age on this website now. I’m uncomfortable about posting my exact age online, but I am mid-twenties to early thirties. Don’t come at me, my joints ache)
