Wisptober Day 8 - Eat

"The fey heard rustling in the leaves just as they went to take a bite… Who would dare interrupt their meal?"

This one is growing on me even if I wish I had had the time to work out a better pose.:)

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.

Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

Two unicorn designs in the same pose but flipped. The cream design on top while the blue one on bottom. Surrounded by a simple gold arched border inside being a textured blue with a few star shapes at the arch and outside is an off white with sun like shapes on top and bottom. The cream design is on the simpler side with just the base coat having quite the shine and the mane+tail being a darker blond with very light blue tips (this includes the feathering at the hooves) her horn is also the same very light blue color. She has pink accent color on her hooves, ears, and snout. The blue design below is a much more complex design as its pattern is a paint appy mix. She has somewhat of a blaze face marking and a pink snout with black around her nose with the addition of white ‘freckles’ below her eyes where the blue coat still reaches. She has three white stockings and one black sock, with long feathering at the hooves. Her black appy spots are only on her bum while the paint spots are at her back, chest , and side. Her twisty unicorn tail is entirely white with a brown wrap tied right before the hair there. Her horn, that sticks straight out but abruptly has a long curve backward, is a vibrant blue and she has black hooves.

palestinian lesbians once again ✨
{ #art #pride }
Digital art Illustration of two women in a tender embrace in front of a arched window. Both women are Palestinian and wearing elaborately decorated traditional thobes. The woman to the left has a deeper skin tone and a tender smile. Her braided black hair is decorated with silver ornaments towards the bottom. The woman to the right is wearing a heavy coin headdress that has chains leading down to her waist. Her face has subtle tattoos that match those on her hand. In the arched window behind them there are palm trees in the distance and foliage that coveres the bottom of the window.

Bell's cool nonbinary wizard aunt. Introducing his family here I suppose
Artist's OC, Opal. A high elf with pale skin and bobbed white hair covering one eye. They are in a heavy hooded dark cloak and leather clothing with minor ornamentation. They are in a stiff standing pose, holding a book beneath one arm, and holding a small green fireball in the other.

I'd really appreciate if writers these days took a look at their characters doing therapyspeak and whether that's appropriate for their work and their world.

By "therapyspeak" I mean speaking like this: "This is the emotion I'm feeling, and feeling that emotion makes me want to act in a way"

People who think the idea of "give me ideas" is something genuinely creative people want have literally never experienced the absolute EUPHORIA of a brainstorming breakthrough, either solo or with a human collaborator. They don't understand what is happening when artists create, on a basic level.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

She deserved a better basic fullbody so I did this too. [ oc ]
Standing, basic fullbody reference pose of artist's OC, a muscular woman high-elf with pale grey skin criss-crossed with scars. She has short messy hair and ragged, stained pants. Her legs are bandaged and she has shackles weighing her ankles down. In her shoulders and hands are embedded black spikes.

be wary of who you choose to posit as your source of information. you are not the untouchable mental fortress you think you are.

red ivory 🩸
a drawing of a pale unicorn leering rather ominously at the viewer from behind its raised hand, held delicately over the lower half of its face. several droplets of red drip from the long, pointed horn at its forehead. among its wardrobe is a dress shirt with puffed sleeves, a cravat pinned with a heart medallion, and several pieces of jewelry. the art itself has a rough, paper-like texture.
