I feel like a while ago someone asked if my profile pic was my Self Insert/SSSSona/OC or something and I said it wasn't.
  ??? eheheh well I obviously wasn't paying attention, and I apologize because yes my profile pic is in fact supposed to look like my Self Insert/SSSSona/OC or something.

Oh! Forgot to mention - I would love to do some more art trades, so if anyone wants me to properly draw them and such, message me!

I can't straight away (got to finish Haiz, Curry / poor neglected responsibilities) but definitely at a later time, if you're interested.

Yeah absolutely! I have a couple others on my plate, so I won't be able to get around to it for a couple weeks anyway.

Whoop, I'm super happy with it!! I like the vivid colours and the dynamic pose! It radiates all that (misplaced?) confidence a hunter Odin's chosen warrior with a (golden) chainsaw would have! Maybe it could be the scene preceding Laufey's picture chronologically :P

You took me by surprise but I've nevertheless got good news: I hope to finish my part of the art trade by tomorrow night! I just need to redo some parts that I'd like to be better.

Aaaaahh I'm so glad you like it!! ESPECIALLY THE POSE BECAUSE
the amount of sketches i made to find a good pose




your oc can be glad they're fun to draw

also yayy EXCITEMENT OVER BEING DRAWN

Almond-Goddess: i have no words anymore. I'm. just gonna lie on the floor and stare on the roof for a bit

Gwenno: all art so far of Fimby's OC seems to have some makeshift composite weapon and I tried to keep the theme, but my creativity when it comes to makeshift weapons seems to die out after "attach a blade maybe", ahahah
(also it's PROBABLY not the last chainsaw I'll ever draw,, whenever i say im not gonna draw a thing I always, ALWAYS end up having to draw it several times shortly after. Nobody told me to draw a chainsaw, though. i just decided to and started to hate myself immediately after ahahahahaha ha ha)

ALSO BLANKET THANK U to everyone who commented!!!!

Piney: I might message you about art trade later maybe!!! (later being days/weeks probably)

you'll know where to find me.

Great! I love sketches! Sometimes almost as much as the finished work (mostly for the expressions/wacky poses)!  I can see you've been busy. Sadly I don't have any sketches to show myself.

Maybe something like a flamethrower attachment (to tenderise the meat for the saw) could work? Then again that's not really sharp.

don't worry about not having any sketches,, it's like. every piece of paper that stays in my vicinity long enough (try a few seconds) WILL become covered in doodles, so I'm glad you like 'em

Silenter: So cute! I really like what you did with the outfit! It fits in well with the canon outfits but feels original at the same time :D
Okay I know this is a late reply but:
Thanks! :) I didn't plan it out, just went and scribbled. xD I only remembered they had boots and some sort of belt, heh.

This did not turn out the way I was expecting, it's more vague, but still somber.

Very nifty. I think this story came out well.

-snipet-


Neat. I would like to point out Strelokov is not trigger happy, though the question of him being trigger happy could be brought up due to him being clearly new to the military, despite being experienced in surviving in the silent world, when I get these dossiers done (my sketch pencil wandered off I think it's in my truck) I'll be doing a short story a bit.



Anyway the rough ending moral of the story I'm working on is "it is the elder foxe's job to teach the younger kits how to remain quiet until the wolves and bears have passed by, and occasionally to lead the more inquisitive bears and wolves away from the den without making a fuss".


Edit: Also I didn't mean that as a jab btw, I feel I was a little unclear regarding Strelok's motivation and mental stuff. He doesn't exactly take losing a team member well.

Despite Imgur's best efforts, I have my thank-you-art for Tabeabd and Frenci.

(I don't know why you're holding a sandwich, Frenci. It just ... happened.)
Also, all the things are preeeetty but I can't post about all of them so blanket compliments!
I'll do art-swaps and beta-reads, PM me!

Oh my god. It's so cute! I'm sorry I'm late to say this but hours of standardized testing has really taken everything out of me! But anyway, that is an expression I wear way to often, and I have way to many adorable hair clips. But THANK YOU (now I must draw a return, as is my custom)

I'm still working on my writing. Especially depicting different characters than the ones I usually create. I'm still quite unsure with characters that fall way outside my normal perimeters. Strelokov is one of those outliers, I will do better in the future. ^-^ (I also need to write when I'm not in the dozy half-awake state I was when I wrote that one.)

Right-o. Here ya go, Fimbulvarg!




There's a lot of things I want to discuss about this piece but...*flops into bed*

I'd just like to say that this is the first time in a long while that I've looked at a piece of art and said "wow" out loud without even thinking.
Life is a state of mind.
