seriously wondering if we can call the uk a democracy anymore. we have a prime minister that less than 0.3% of the population voted for, we have a new king that we have no say on, people are getting arrested for protesting against the monarchy under the excuse of ‘offending someone’ and we are effectively having a day of mourning forced upon us for the funeral with important hospital appointments cancelled and people even getting kicked out of holiday lettings for the day. this reads like a dystopian world where a dictator has died, not something happening now in a supposed democratic country
As a rule of thumb, don't reblog donation posts or people asking for donations unless they've been vetted and reblogged by Palestinian bloggers. We usually go to lengths to verify this shit because we know scammers have been faking to get people to send them money, using the urgency of our genocide as bait.
It's disgusting this is what we're dealing with, but people are losing money because of some truly evil people out there.
Accounts don't just randomly spring up on tumblr without gofundmes while asking for someone to help them create a campaign. Fuck out of here with that shit.
These are my tribute pieces to Takahashi, one was done in July and one in October, after we got more news about his passing.
Miku by Johannes Vermeer This paintings similarity to Vermeer's most iconic piece- The Girl with The Pearl Earring cannot be denied. Though I am sincerely impressed by the rendering given to the face and the accuracy in her hair tone. There is a vague impression of her chunky hair ties too, which is nice to see. [8/10]
Miku by Sandro Botticelli The frame of this is interesting- unlike what I would see typically associated with Botticelli. It bares a superficial resemblance to Botticelli's body of work- however it bares a massive resemblance to Miku, the twin tails are accounted for and she is even gifted a beautiful headpiece with decorative wings. This depiction is almost saint-like. Points lost for the most fucked up eyes and salad fingers I have seen in my days. [5/10]
Miku by Caraviggo A beautiful combination of Caraviggo's most iconic rich tones and dark atmosphere. There is something deeply interesting to me about this helmet she wears- something intensely modern and robotic whilst maintaining harmony with her comfortable and classic robes. Both twin tails are accounted for- major points. [9/10]
Miku by Elisabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun Madame Le Brun's most iconic subject matters are the French elite and that fashion period pierces through this depiction. Miku appears content yet contemplative. Her hair reflects the envy of the time with big whisps of soft light hair and neatly arranged ringlets. Miku's signature tones pop against the warm complimentary hues- truly one of Madame Le Bruns greatest contributions. [9/10]
Miku by Gustav Klimt Klimt's playful relationship with the unreal is displayed here- maybe even in a way unconventional to Klimt. Miku's chest and arms are eaten by a great thicket of her turquoise hair. She is framed by the ornate speckling iconic to Klimt's body of work- contrasted effectively with the dark tones, with the eye drawn into the subject by an unstable halo of light- dancing into the background like an oil spill. The tone reminds me immensely of Mrs Pumpkin's Comical Dream by Hachi-P. This might have been a [6/10] due to inaccuracy but I am quite fond of it so im bumping it up to a [7/10].
Miku by William-Adolphe Bouguereau Known for portraying mythological scenes and biblical lore Bouguereau is no stranger to realisms true bond with the magical and the romantic- shown here in wonderful technicolour. A modern film over the subject that conveys Miku's true contemporary nature as well as a scene and rendering that display a classical knowledge of the arts. The clothing is undeniably modern whilst cutting her futuristic earpieces with the shape of a nuns habit. A true display of the complete deity status she maintains in the modern creative world. [10/10] A true gesamtkunstwerk.
Miku by Simonetta Vespucci This is really quite upsetting. I wish I had not seen it to be quite frank. This is not Vespucci and this is CERTAINLY not Miku. Im very scared. [-3/10]
Hello. I’m sorry for begging again but my situation is pretty dire.
Recently, I’ve been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, stage 4. It came out of nowhere and was caught by sheer luck on an unrelated test. Stage four means my kidneys are shriveled up and almost dead - currently at only 17% working condition. When it drops to 10%, which is stage 5 (prognosis is within a year) I will require a kidney transplant and/or dialysis. You can not live without it, and prognosis for dialysis/kidney transplant patients are 10 to 20 years. I’m very young and I really would like to continue having a peaceful life and work on my art. I’ve had many hardships before - I’ve fundraised to get money for rent because of a homophobic attack I’ve suffered, I’ve fundraised to escape my country, all within 2-3 years. I’m really grateful for all the help I’ve gotten and I believe in people’s kindness.
Please, if you’re able, share or pitch in to my gfm campaign made by my fiancé. Link in the reblog.
My comms are also still open if you’d like to help in that way and get some art.
