Fat Knuckles is an inspired design choice. Completely fitting. Boy's supposed to be a bruiser, he should either look stacked or like he could knock over a house if he ran into it fast enough, and making him fat a way to satisfy that in a way thats both surprising and makes complete sense. Also the way you draw him makes him look awesome. A+ no notes.
ahh thank you!! i'm glad you appreciate my take! i make him fat because i portray him with a power lifter's body type! a regular body builder will just have a lot of muscle mass and less fat percent - it's often just for show and it isn't very sustainable. power lifters are built to .. well, lift a lot of weight! they have a higher fat percentage and are often a lot physically stronger than bodybuilders.
here's an example pic from this post on quora
for knuckles, i imagine him as being able to not only throw a devastating punch but be able to lift a lot of weight over his head too. a shredded look wouldn't make much sense for that, especially since he lives on an island and doesn't have gym equipment or anything. i feel like he'd be fatter looking, but he's not overweight per-say. he's just very strong - and naturally so!
heres a pic i drew earlier this year. you can kinda see what im going for :D altho these days i draw him even bigger lol
another factor for him is his age! i draw/portray him as being in his 30s so he's kinda softer now. that period of time in his life where he was able to evade the gut is long gone. you'll notice that if i ever draw knuckles at a younger point in his life, he isnt fat. being bighuge is a more recent thing for him as a result of him hitting later maturity
i am not looking for posts about house MD but now two people i follow are posting about it - right as i started binging it
um.
h-how is this happening. did something happen to make it trend or something? how did it become the Hot Show everyone is talking about again? i just started watching it again cuz i was feeling nostalgic idk whats going on đ
someone I follow on the bird app just announced theyâre starting a very exclusive private fic server because they and a bunch of other people want to talk about how much they love the fics theyâre reading, and as an author can I just say that a really great place to talk about a fic you love is in the comments for that fic
I understand that people are trying to create safe spaces, but as the number of comments that I get on my fics dwindles with each passing year, knowing these spaces exist where my fics are being discussed, places that I am excluded from, makes me want to write fic LESS
I mean I guess who cares, right, because if I stop writing, thereâs 10,000 other people that will continueâŚbut if you participate in a fic âbook clubâ server and you say nice things there about a fic you loved, maybe copy and paste that into a comment on AO3?
the only thing fanfic writers are asking for in return for hours of hard work is attention. please donât rob us of the one thing that we hope for when we hit âpostâ
heres a close up + some wips since this whole thing took around 8 hours
a painting i did of the ender dragon when i wasn't feeling well
i drew this in late 2023 in honor of the really cool fanwork "project shadow" by joao santiago. him and his team did an incredible job bringing this story to life in a meaningful, impactful way and i hope his career goes places.
i really liked the scene with shadow looking up at the rain while his expression softens. i thought it was beautiful. i interpreted it as the planet crying for/with him about his loss as well as shadow bittersweetly appreciating the rain and how it feels on his fur - knowing full well that maria would have loved to feel it too.
May I interest you in the idea of chubby Shadow?
i know what you are
elon musk has been incredibly innovative when it comes to giving people reasons to stop using twitter.
his latest push: all pictures posted to twitter will have a "recreate in grok" button beneath it, allowing anyone to feed your art straight into an AI with 0 control from you.
also, i presume because of this feature, artists are getting their original works tagged as "created with Grok".
