Daily Life Of A Digital Artist:

An archivist found a long forgotten 8mm film reel in an old metal box, marked "Philippines 1942". Thinking it was lost WWII footage, he sent it in to be restored/digitized. When he got the footage back, he found puppies instead (via)

Day 2: Sheik

Again I know its Zelda but I still like this design for Sheik.

Day 1: Tetra

It’s that time of year again. Welcome to my 2019 Inktober featuring all my favorite Zelda characters. Zelda is my all time favorite game series and I wanted to do all my favorite characters. First up is Tetra (I know she’s Zelda but she’s her own character). 

DID YALL HEAR THE NEWS

I wanted to do something for Asexual Awareness Week. Wanted to show appreciation by posing with the two characters that have grown with me over the years: Syre and Tyberius. They are an asexual couple who have had ups and downs and are completely comfortable with one another through a very close friendship. I have other ace characters but I wanted to showcase these two more since they have a very special place in my heart. 

I’ve identified as ace/aro for most of my life. I didn’t really understand what it was until recently when I heard the term asexual. For the longest time I felt weird and out of place among all my friends, who were experiencing romantic and sexual attraction, and I wasn’t. I was never interested in a relationships and  anytime someone showed that interest I would get really uncomfortable and uneasy. How people would always tell me “You just haven’t met the right person yet,” or “You’re a late bloomer, you’ll change your mind.”

Now I understand what it means to be ace/aro, that I can love platonically and that’s okay. Friendships are more special to me than romance or sex. That I don’t find people attractive in the slightest. Coming out to my parents was a little hard since they didn’t understand what it was (and they still don’t). But my parents show their support the best way they can and I am also surrounded by positive people who I can call friends. Friends that respect me and my orientation. So I thank you friends (you know who you are :D). I love you guys with all my little heart and in my own special way.

Not long ago in a Disney park not that far away...

“We chose the term “asexual” to describe ourselves because both “celibate” and “anti-sexual” have connotations we wished to avoid: the first implies that one has sacrificed sexuality for some higher good, the second that sexuality is degrading or somehow inherently bad. “Asexual”, as we use it, does not mean “without sex” but “relating sexually to no one”. This does not, of course, exclude masturbation but implies that if one has sexual feelings they do not require another person for their expression. Asexuality is, simply, self-contained sexuality.”

— The Asexual Manifesto, Lisa Orlando and Barbara Getz, 1972
