Before I get too far into this month of self-indulgent 2D art, I should break from my typical method of "doing things without asking for help" for something I'm at risk of messing up at. (Short version, I'd like to have fun drawing a few light/silly works in an isekai scenario in a way that doesn't fall into pitfalls adjacent to the genre; helpful hints and criticism appreciated.)

is having nostalgia for all sorts of 80s and 90s games, movies, shows, etc.

and seeing it manifest as brand worship at conventions, online discourse splitting hairs over details of the latest installment of a franchise, fans getting so excited to be drip-fed trivial fanservice with no heart of its own that it succeeds anyway

feeling the dissonance between some of your communities condemning Netflix's vocal pro-transphobia stance and others evidently willing to look past all that to promote their new scrimblo cartoon for them (unpaid)

and looking at how these are all 20+ year old properties
and just saying to yourself "...this should've been ours by now."
and cursing the name of Disney

just as a heads up i have a tendency to go without checking cohost for a bit so might miss notifications

admittedly if RSS is now available maybe I can fix that, at least a little

Prepping for January with an icon that reflects both the new outfit and a slightly better understanding of yinglet anatomy than what I had a month ago (hands are tuned specifically to work with my Steam avatar border)
