Sollux Captor - Blog Posts
Someone asked for this And i enjoyed making it Because even the best of platformers get sick of the parkour sometimes
2020 / 2021 fanart.
▶ I made a minimalist Homestuck calendar for the year 2022 (this year!) sadly it seems I am 11 days too late but hopefully it won't go completely to waste. I could re-release it some other time for a different year if people still want it. you can track people's zodiac on it and everything. I thought it was a cute idea but I didn't think it would be so time-consuming. However, my general health had deteriorated this past couple of years, leading to the loss of my speed and productivity.
⇩Personal thoughts below ⇩
▶ I actually read and finished Homestuck. it was an interesting experience. It was much more enjoyable than I imagined it would be, very creative, wild, and surprisingly educational. I realized just how big of an impact this comic had on Internet's history as a whole.
■ I do admit that I have come to greatly dislike the author as a person, and it seems like they are going down a path that is unhealthy for them and the people surrounding them. On the other hand, I have great respect for all the people that contributed to this series and I'll support it in order to support the hard-working team working under the author and the dedicated fans.
more doodles from class today, enjoy
Arasol cutiessss (except sollux looks fucking weird sadly, ill draw him better some other time to compensate guys)
I'm going to make their teams too, but they will be based on aesthetics because i know nothing about actual pokemon games (i grew up on the anime)
by see i mean, im going to draw them
IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE TAVROS DESIGN, CLICK HERE
some people have such little nuance Ó_Ò
doodles that i made, wanted to draw a back so... helming lol
i think that digital sedation would be cool, like tricking your brain into momentarily believing it's not feeling the actual physical sensations that our bodies intakes (basically, cocomelon on a huger scale)
was it necessary to tag absolutely everything? Yes
The trolls as insects (i might draw them later)
Aradia Megido - Maroon Ghost Moth (Elhamma australasiae)
Moths have been repeatedly portrayed as a sign of death. Also, their fluffiness matches the one of Aradia's hair XD. When I read this one's name it was inevitable (ghost???, maroon??, literally her oh my gooood).
Tavros Nitram - Question Mark Butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis)
Mostly based off of the Summoner and Rufioh having wings, I didn't want to make it a monarch butterfly because Tavros is in no way royalty.
Sollux Captor - Western Honey Bee (Apis mellifera)
Pretty self explanatory, Sollux always had a connection (and obsession) with bees. They also sting, which is kind of a metaphor for the psionics.
Karkat Vantas - Seven Spot Ladybird (Coccinella septempunctata)
Ladybirds are always seen as special, even though this instance is not a mutation per se, it's special and red. Also, ladybirds are commonplace pests (which is kind of what Karkat is to HIC).
Nepeta Leijon - Pale Green Assassin Bug (Zelus luridus)
I looked up some good bug hunters and I got assassin bugs, nepeta is the mightiest of huntresses, so it fits.
Kanaya Maryam - Green Headed Ant (Rhytidoponera metallica)
I was doubting wether to make Kanaya an ant or a silk moth, but ultimately, moths are a better representation of Aradia, and ants mimic jade-blood's function in troll society better. A part from being green, this species of ant apparently has a nice bite, which is representative of Kanaya's fierceness.
Terezi Pyrope - Ebony Jewelwing (Calopteryx maculata)
I am aware that the dragonfly pictured is male, just ignore that lol, headcanon the trolls as hermaphroditic (i will post about their biological cycle hehe). Dragonflies are said to be insect's best predators, Terezi is also a vicious and precise hunter, if not of other trolls literally, of outcomes and possibilities (she is intelligent, and a Seer of Mind).
Vriska Serket - Peacock Tarantula (Poecilotheria metallica)
Also pretty self explanatory, it's a blue spider, therefore Vriska Serket. Spiders in general are already a good representation of how she is percieved (with fear lol). Yea, simple explanation.
Equius Zahhak - "Pure Blue" Giant Flower Beetle (Mecynorhina torquata)
The strongest of bugs are beetles (among some types of ants, who are better described as proportionally strongest). This particular one is also pretty big and strong, and coincidentally presents this type of coloration.
Gamzee Makara - Purple-Winged Grasshopper (Titanacris albipes)
Originally was going to be a praying mantis, but the orchid mantis was just too perfect for Feferi. Locusts also have ties to religion and mythology, which was my main focus for finding Gamzee's insect (they have been, fittingly, a symbol of destruction for eons).
Eridan Ampora - Canopy Mosquito (Sabethes cyaneus)
Tbh, I based most of this decision off of the fact that Eridan is annoying (I don't hate him, it's just his personality, unfortunately). Also, mosquitos breed in water (at least that's what my parents always told me) which matches the aquatic theme.
Feferi Peixes - Orchid Mantis (Hymenopus coronatus)
Feferi is the troll I had the most trouble with. Originally I tried keeping up with the aquatic theme and had found Ranatra linearis, a stickbug that looks like a mantis and hunts little fish. I discarded the option because even though it was aquatic, the connections with Feferi kind of ended there.
I then tried to search for a bug that had "empress" in the name, and had chosen Megapomponia imperatoria, a giant as fuck cicada. It didn't convince me either though.
I chose the orchid mantis because, mantises are cutthroat, good hunters and pink as fuck. If that's not a description of the tyrian blood caste I don't know what is.
I wanted to make one of these drawing comparisons to different species of ants. There exist some cool af ants out there, I might do it.
Au where karkat works at a daycare or something??? XD idk, they're pretty cute kids tbh
they are so sibling-core omg
