Been Listening A Lot To Sleep Token Lately And I'm Just Imagining How Cool This Song For A Shadow AMV

The reason I love furry art in particular is that nature is brutal and also kind of stupid. Humans are ''supposed'' to be complex enough to go beyond base, brutish instincts but we kind of aren't. so you combine human features and animal features that both remove superficial humanity of humans and general brutishness of nature's cycles to get a creature that's removed from the worst of either, it keeps psychological human features to enhance relatability and expressiveness, so basically to enhance empathy, but now the senses are amplified and it looks removed enough visually to not read as completely human (so it also retains a sense of wonder from the viewer). it also has features of animals we find relatable, appealing etc. it's like an ideal being for expression, resonance, a feeling of comfort. a ''cure'' for the loneliness of human existence

I keep forgetting to upload my art here QwQ Anyhow, artfight attack for @zeezu-ix!

Slowly already becoming an old meme, but meh

the fetishization of limb loss in media

why. literally why. like everyone has at least one oc with like a fake arm or leg. their disability is not seen as a disability because people think prosthetics like fix you or something. you never see someone with rotationoplasty or any limb difference that isn't at least half amputated. maybe someone lost a finger or toe and they wear a prosthetic??? why??? people don't do that. also. prosthetics don't move or work like natural limbs. god please stop. as someone with an upper limb difference, I can confidently say that people who use arm/ hand prosthetics are a minority. we have been using our arms our entire lives and where someone sees no hand, or a misshapen hand, we just see ourselves. we have adapted to life, we hold things strangely but we hold things. we don't need hunks of metal so people feel more comfortable with the way we hold shit like really?? maybe your oc with a bionic leg, doesn't have a bionic leg that looks identical to his other leg. maybe he uses a weelchair, or crutches. maybe your oc with a bionic arm, doesn't have a bionic arm and instead of pretending to have representation, actually do some research. maybe they have a club foot, maybe symbrachydactyly, maybe they are missing a finger and they don't wear a prosthetic pinkie?????????? food for thought xo

Do you think Shadow would listen to Sleep Token?

"I cant draw" then do it bad who gives a fuck.....

you'll get the urge as an artist or a writer to say out loud the things you're worried about "the proportions are off" "kind of out of character" "i'm not good at summaries" "didn't get as much detail as i wanted" "i made a mistake and here's how" and that's the self-conscious part of your brain telling you "it's bad and if you don't tell them you know it's bad then they'll think you're stupid" but you've got to ignore that little voice and pretend you think it's good or else that little voice is going to ruin your life

Got my art program working again! Not sure what to do as BG yet...
