Finally,, Some Bandee Action,,,,

I've talked a lot about how the phrase "Biblically Accurate Angels" is offensive and inaccurate, because it's a corruption of Jewish ideas about angels.

But a lot of you may be wondering, "well, what *are* Jewish angels anyway?"

MyJewishLearning just published an excellent article summarizing and explaining the different Jewish concepts of angels and how they are described, and I highly suggest reading it if you'd like an understanding of Jewish beliefs surrounding angels. Click here to read it.

i love popstar gang, the dream team, the main four, whatever you want to call them, so fucking much man

like. they weren't MEANT to be a team. both in-universe and in meta context.

these characters were all created for different purposes entirely.

kirby is protagonist, obviously. dedede initially was a bowser expy that grew into friendly rival role but not necessarily protagonist material. bandana dee was a nobody that was just a throwaway opponent in a minigame in original super star. meta knight was meant to be enigmatic "dark counterpart" of kirby and nothing more.

but then, suddenly, shinya kumazaki comes and recontextualizes all of their interactions they had in previous games into them building up bonds. until it culminates in them becoming genuine friends.

dedede's slowburn warming up to kirby has a satisfying resolution. meta knight's brief team up in amazing mirror now is seen in entirely different light. bandana dee's encounter in revenge of the king hits different as well.

this wasn't planned. this wasn't intended. this feels kind of messy and maybe ill-fitted at the first glance. but for a series where main characters' design was literally unplanned placeholder and was kept in just because they really liked it... it only feels the most fitting.

HELLO????????????

What if the other characters could get a cool lil power-up like in star allies + a costume change

WoFF!Magolor :)

3 wild goofy goobers, clearly up to no good.

Reports say they are still at large for their ice cream related crimes.  

so, you do you remember isora, if not, it's the demon that i like to call "sewer fish" because the two that come to mind where he appears (smt iii nocturne and dds: at) he always appear as the swarm of sting rays in the sewers in those game. i'm just saying that he's the most irrevelant demon in the franchise (that IS based on mythology) and his design is awful, it literally just forneus' original design.

Of course I remember Isora! His greatest role being "grinding fodder for Matador"!

Look at this art that's totally Isora and not Forneus! Isora's appeal is a major factor that paved the way for the Persona of today. Spread the word.

A burnout break allowed me to organize my procreate folders and drawings and I found some things I never posted here. Introducing the idea nobody asked for: ‘Magolor but he’s the test tube cat from 64.’

I’ve also been trying to sketch again, which I can if I turn my brain off which is good since even if I can’t focus I can still pick up a pencil and draw images.

jack/slick as the demi-fiend. this is not a request, this is just an errant thought that came to mind.
