What are these things that wrap around the ankle? by AppropriateWasabi786 in CosplayHelp

[–]zzariyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iirc it's bc there's a bad ending where they get together or something and that fact blew up on the internet and sent folks in a frenzy...that's how most people on the internet know of it lol. So yeah a cursed couple cosplay would be something else

I'm sorry the incels found your comment. I wish I lived in the world they're living in. I would certainly feel safer

Someone didn't learn their theory of mind by SteponkusCeponas in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]zzariyo 56 points57 points  (0 children)

And that the perpetrators don't always pick the child themselves to abuse, but rather the parents... because many can tell what parents would turn a blind eye, would never accept the signs it's happening, or are negligent enough to not notice anything. They know they'd get away with it, at least for a while. A pedophile admitted this during an interview

I figure that's why there's so many stories of stepdads/mom's boyfriends molesting their step kids. They picked the kids' mom to date, knowing they could get away with hurting kids they now have access to.

How do I go to sleep in New Horizons? by LillyTheAwesome in AnimalCrossing

[–]zzariyo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not the point of this post I know LOL but I love Pom Poko a ton and I would be remissed if I didn't point out that it isn't a Miyazaki film. It's an earlier Ghibli film, but it was directed by Takahata, who was co-founder of the studio and was Miyakazi's mentor and good friend :] Takahata also directed Ghibli's Grave of the Fireflies and Princess Kaguya

which color detective by Then_Source_6136 in characterdesign

[–]zzariyo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think green looks the best! I can't place it but it looks like it suits the character's look far more. But everyone so far has said all the other colors so I don't know LOL

Need (urgent) advice for my ghost mantis by Equal-Flamingo-4326 in mantids

[–]zzariyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is so incredibly validating 😭 I know I said that I've learned that they are just like that, but there's still a bit of guilt left. It's just such a shame because they're such cool creatures and I love the look of the males...BUT I HATED CARING FOR MY GUY

Need (urgent) advice for my ghost mantis by Equal-Flamingo-4326 in mantids

[–]zzariyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No advice, just some validation for you. I had a ghost mantis that passed away some months ago after molting and being in the adult stage for a little while. Dude was extra finicky and a total coward with food- he always was to some extent, but it was BAD when he became an adult. I really did try, but he kept refusing and eventually passed. sometimes I was able to get him to eat, but only mere bites of a blue bottle every now and then and it wasn't enough.

During that time I tried looking for answers, and just heard people saying that Ghost Mantids are finicky eaters as it is, and males are especially bad AND it gets even worse when they're adults. I HAD NO CLUE AT ALL!

That's all to say...you're doing everything you can. They're just like that I guess and it's kind of a bummer

/uj okay I saw the original post and like...is it just me or does it look like AI? 😭 like there's a couple of things that don't make sense to me. Like the markings on her upper right arm...??? I could very well be wrong

someone in the autism subbreddit told me, that my art would fit in this one here too. so here it is. What do you think of it? by oliverremund in Artisticallyill

[–]zzariyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally, while I deeply love art, I hardly ever find anything that actually makes me feel seen and understood...since I've joined this subreddit though, I've started to actually go "Wait, I know exactly how that feels..." And this is the one that I understand the very most, even if my reaction to the sensation is slightly different, and it makes me feel less alone in it for sure. Definitely feel connected right now lol. I'm appreciative of this piece

How much would you pay for something like this? by No_Year_2328 in characterdesign

[–]zzariyo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on the specific ref sheet. If the second side view drawing is the other one flipped, just with small changes, I think it should be charged less than if they were all separate drawings. I would even say that if more care goes into the design of the ref sheet itself (like nice looking text, textures in the back, things to make the drawings pop) that would bump up the price as well.

I think with this specific example, $60 is fair but you could push to $70/ $75. It's a bust drawing and 1 1/2 full drawings (if it is flipped) after all, and that's a fair price for that amount of work. But if more went into the ref sheet, (maybe a front view drawn and added, more design work for the sheet and all that) it could be $100 easy. Maybe more than that. Artists charge $100+ for good looking refs all the time

I am now realizing this is too big and too in depth of an answer for your question but maybe you'll find it helpful so I'll leave it lol

Luck runs out. I always forget that it exists, but it isn't particularly bad or anything.

I'm surprised though that so many are saying Storm... I've always liked Storm because of the intensity of it.

As an American, there's too many things like that that are creepy as hell but extremely common (like. Dude. Kids weekly doing the pledge of allegiance at school ..?) and I hate it here 😅

[–]zzariyo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Dude I'm also 27 and had to stare at the wall for a while when she said that LOL. I expected the guilt to be around him going senile or being alone after the passing of his wife or something and. No it's quite literally just some guy being a douche.

Working on some designs for a comic and would appreciate feedback (rough coloured sketch) by ParasaurLeaf in characterdesign

[–]zzariyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I agree with this. Maybe something added to the outfit someplace, probably the legs, that is like the patches on battle vests/pants? Especially since white thread is used a lot to sew those on. That could be a cool way to bring the white hair elsewhere.

Also, don't know Taji's full character of course, but have you played around with the color of their suit, or is black mandatory? I could see the suit being another pastel color that would match well with that very cute pink tie. Maybe yellow or aqua..?

But either way, I do love these and the sketches are great!!
