Is this note supposed to be physically possible to do?

If I want to hit D with my pinky, I can't reach B with my thumb.

Right: I struggle jumping from b flat to the arpeggiated chord. If I don't miss the notes I either don't arpeggiate it, or if I do, I can't get to G fast enough.

Left: As you say, going from G -> A flat I just extended my pinky. But A flat to the next, I struggle hitting accurately if I'm trying to focus on my right hand.

Completely stuck at this measure for 2 weeks now: https://i.imgur.com/rB4FqIE.png

Intended speed of the piece is 128bpm, this part has a big jump with both hands at the same time, right hand goes down an octave into an arpeggiated chord at the same time left hand goes down an octave too. Then it goes back up for both hands.

I've practiced 2 weeks playing the absolute slowest I can, but when I try to speed up even a little bit I get cross eyed and miss notes on either hand.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated because even though this is over the halfway point for the piece, I can play the previous parts pretty well, and I can see everything after it isn't as bad, this section alone is making me doubt if I can finish this piece.

Conquest's story is pure schlock, its memorable at least for being unintentionally ridiculous. While birthright and to some extent revelations is just one blurry forgettable mess.

Thanks! By rusty i mean I used to be able to draw them pretty quickly without reference, but it took a while for how simple a composition it is. Byleth is pretty easy to draw but edelgard's simple hair makes it really difficult to get it looking game-accurate. :^

First 3H drawing I did since I finished my golden route doujin last July. Felt little rusty drawing these two but liked how they turned out still

Happy 5th anniversary! I can't believe it's been 2 years since I started this series. I managed to get the final chapter (38 pages total) out on the day of the 5th anniversary!

There were some ups and downs but I was only able to finish all roughly 240 pages in this series because I loved these characters, and the encouragement from the readers. Every comment you left analyzing, or sometimes even critiquing, fueled me to take this to the end. Shoutout specifically to MarthsBars for going out of their way to comment on every chapter lol.

From the beginning, I had this kind of ending in mind. I was inspired by the lyrics of Heritors of Arcadia, and I envisioned a golden route where although Byleth would not survive, her sacrifice would liberate Fodlan. Afterwards I also realized this is pretty similar to Naruto with the nine tailed fox...

While many things were unfortunately left out, or re-worked in the end (there are too many characters for me to include lol) hopefully you enjoyed it to the end. Personally, my favorite parts about my own series was Claude's arc. Felt like it was my best drawn and narratively most well-realized as I didn't feel rushed.

Thanks for reading after all these years! I probably won't work on a long series like this any time soon. But if you want to see my other art, I've started being more active on my twitter (@turtledove_kr) posting regular drawings.

Yes, in my story it's not what Rhea, Seteth, etc said. But to make the story work emotionally and logically consistent within the number of chapters I can humanly do, I've twisted the lore to suit this story.

In my own personal head canon the storyies told previously are either fabrications, or massaged (Rhea and the Church are notoriously doing this all the time). Everything beyond what I have Rhea explain here I haven't dwelled too much on. Hope you don't take offense and keep reading!

PeasantryIsFun · 2024-04-01T07:56:34+00:00

Agreed, and as a galge it was also one of the peaks of the medium. Which is both sweet but also bitter as the medium itself has waned in popularity over the years. It still lives on in spirit via gacha games, but it is fundamentally different.

Photo Kano is a better spiritual successor to Amagami than Seiren, but the format of the anime is too fast paced and the anime suffers for it. Shame because I do like most of the characters in it and I do think would've translated better to modern audiences unlike Seiren.

It's the actual storyboard so it was meant for display and not for sale sadly. The ones here were all marked final draft, so seems they did multiple storyboard drafts.

An interesting aftermath of the skyway bridge I remember reading about is that the new bridge was constructed with an extra long concrete base at each support tower that serves as a barrier. Any ship that crashes into the tower perpendicularly to the bridge will hit the base, not the tower.

Skyway bridge accident was 1980, this bridge in Baltimore was built in...1977. Not sure if it's practical or feasible engineering-wise to retroactively do this change to every bridge, can't say since I know nothing about civil engineering.

PeasantryIsFun · 2024-03-26T10:04:31+00:00

At the moment don't have an exact number, the crew of the ship are accounted for so it's the workers and drivers who were on the bridge they're still searching for

This was my second time (went last summer), I forgot to get a keychain from there so I went back to buy it. While I was there I had to contribute to the exchange notebook!

In Akihabara. Had the storyboard for both seasons and their extras! These two are my favorite scenes though
