He is totally normal about cool weapons and DEFINITELY knows how to use them safely 😉

Raiden controls light and thunder and can create weapons or other objects with light manifestation. Unfortunately the things he forms are unstable so his uncle (resident inventor and member of the Shikami Council) made a device to help Raiden stabilise his hard light weapons

Don't y'all just hate it when an OC you love so much and have great plans for ends up looking like an already existing character

Gosh I have so many insane fake scenarios for Light Tail that I wanna post but it happens in like season/arc 5 wth

Why can't I post stuff about my OCs without squeezing out a 4-hour long drawing??? I feel like y'all are just here for the art rather than to chit-chat about stuff other than art 🤨

Got too lazy to colour after hours of line art 🥲 (design still in progress)

This is Mio (working on the name too), the deuteragonist of Light Tail. Travels across the land looking for his master who may or may not be dead (I'll explain his lore later)

Why does the urge to draw 24/7 only emerge when I'm doing extremely important things like during a big math exam or smth 😔

Daily reminder: Jesus loves you! He loves you so much, you can’t comprehend how much he loves you!!! ✝️❤️

Y'all think if ClanGen were to make the elders den and the nursery an option, the elder's den would have tales that you could edit or tell to the other cats to, for example, improve relationships and personality of cats, while the nursery would have minigames featuring the kits. What do y'all think of that

Jesus loves everyone and will accept anyone who give their heart to him and follows him. There is no past that he can’t forgive and there is no one he will reject if they accept him. You’re never too far for God’s love.

Help a Family in Need

I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Mohamad S., who is facing one of the most challenging times of his life. Mohamad is 37 years old and left his homeland in 2015 in search of a safer and better future. He’s a kind, hardworking man, and his small family has always been his greatest priority.

Living abroad, Mohamad has recently endured unimaginable loss and financial strain. Amidst the ongoing conflict in his homeland, his mother passed away, leaving behind his sister and her five young children—the last remaining members of his immediate family.

As the situation worsened, Mohamad managed to help his sister and her children escape to safety in Egypt, covering their immediate needs and securing a temporary refuge for them. Since then, he has been fully responsible for providing everything they need to survive during this transition.

In his efforts to support his family and cope with this devastating loss, Mohamad has found himself deeply in debt. To make matters even more difficult, he recently underwent knee surgery, which limits his ability to return to work for the foreseeable future. This has made it even harder for him to manage his financial responsibilities and the pressing need to provide his family with a stable future.

Mohamad is now working to bring his sister and her five children to join him in Belgium, where he hopes they can find stability and opportunity after all they’ve endured. This transition, however, requires significant resources that he is currently unable to meet alone.

For privacy reasons, we are not sharing Mohamad’s full name, as he has chosen to keep his identity discreet. While he initially refused the idea of asking for help, I couldn’t stand by and watch him struggle alone. I insisted on doing this for him because he deserves a chance to overcome these challenges.

Your contribution will help Mohamad repay the debt incurred during this difficult time, cover ongoing living expenses for his family, and assist with the costs involved in bringing them safely to Belgium.

Mohamad has been a good friend of mine for years, and I’ve always admired his resilience and generosity. Any support, no matter the size, will make an incredible difference in helping Mohamad and his family rebuild their lives after these painful experiences.

Thank you for reading his story and considering helping a man who has always done everything he can for his loved ones.

Movie Dark Sonic but he’s got the energy of 90s animated spider-man in the symbiote suit

Greypaw(stripe)

The grey-striped homonculus

Me realising that Bluestar, Yellowfang and Mapleshade's family/bloodline (mate and kits) were fricken wiped out (and they were all a result of half-Clan romances)

So some days back I found out one of my siblings' friends is also a Warriors and Arcane fan I'm so happy I have someone to fangirl with now

If Spottedleaf is Tigerclaw's aunt and Redtail is Spottedleaf's brother, along with the fact that Redtail is Sandstorm's kid, then that would make Sandstorm Tigerclaw's cousin and Firestar and Tigerclaw cousins-in-law 😳

Firestar (and me):

Decided that the headworld titles for Raiden and Tori's (birb girl I posted the other day) universes will be named "Light Tail" and "Neath the Grove" respectively

P.S. Tori is not the main character she appears and becomes relevant to the plot MUCH later in the series :/

For artists with OCs do you feel like you have two or more OC universes, one that is straight up messed up with obviously traumatised characters and another having a lighter theme (may or may not also be messed up)

BLACK SUN IS BAACK LET'S GOOOOO

Drew this last year

Jayfeather asks Lionblaze if he can bring him some spider webs. Lionblaze is a very strong cat and an amazing fighter, but he's not very delicate when it comes to gathering herbs and things like that.

He knows this, so he just brings him the whole tree where the little spider web is.

Patience.

Another one of my OCs (not the same universe as Raiden's tho)

Modesty in Heart and Life

Hi y’all, today we are going to discuss modesty. Modesty isn’t just how we as followers of Christ dress, but it’s also how we speak and act! So yeah, we are going to discuss etc. how to live a modest life, modesty in speech and actions and dressing with modesty:)

MODESTY STARTS IN THE HEART

Modesty isn’t again just about outward appearance;it’s about having a heart that seeks God over self-glorification. A modest heart isn’t rude,boastful,or selfish-but instead it’s content and honours God in all things (like your hobbies or actions). It will maybe take time to change your bad habits like bitterness or anger in your heart but when you ask God to take it from your heart and hold it for you instead. It will get easier and will come to you quicker considering your addressing it and going to God first!

LIVING A MODEST LIFE

Modesty in life means making choices that reflect humility, kindness, and godliness. It’s about the way we speak, act, and treat others, not just the way we dress. It’s resisting the need to show off, boast, or seek validation from the world. So acts like etc. helping the homeless, smiling at strangers, telling a loved one you love them, or giving random people hugs are good ways to show Jesus’ love through your actions which as Christian’s is very important,considering we could be people’s first glance or hearing of God’s name<3

MODESTY IN SPEECH AND ACTIONS

The words we say and how we carry ourselves should reflect Christ. This means avoiding gossip, arrogance, and seeking constant attention. Instead, we should speak with grace, wisdom, and love. The reasons for this is, gossip and arrogance is coming from places of judgment which as Christian’s we don’t want to judge people’s sins/choices considering we believe in the forgiveness of sins, and gossip is literally the act of acting like God, which isn’t our place considering these are also his kids. So when you almost gossip, act arrogant, or try and make everything about you, just remember that let’s try and act like Christ. Also being self involved is bad because it’s going back to the subject/term ‘pride’, which God hates because it’s selfish and makes everything about yourself. Bring everything back to Him,our King!

DRESSING WITH MODESTY

Our clothing should reflect our identity in Christ rather than draw attention for the wrong reasons. Modesty in dressing isn’t about shame but about respecting ourselves and honouring God. The focus should be on inner beauty-a gentle and quiet spirit. Dressing immodest can lead to sin considering, it can lead etc. men to look at women lustfully, yes of course they shouldn’t do that, but as followers of Christ, we shouldn’t (as women or even men) dress in a way that is inappropriate out of respect for others, to help them not think sinfully considering it could be a sin they struggle with. Another reason is, the reasons for dressing these immodest ways could be etc. insecurity or trying to be sexual which is ways that is worshipping your outer appearance instead of our inner beauty (kindness and love) which matters more to God of course:)

CLOTHING WE CAN WEAR TO BE MODEST (Men and Women)

MEN:

1. Well-fitted jeans or trousers (not too tight or sagging).

2. Polo shirts, button-ups, or plain T-shirts (nothing overly flashy or with inappropriate prints).

3. Knee-length shorts (instead of very short ones).

4. A cross necklace that is small (or medium sized). I would recommend not wearing too much jewellery or accessories if it’s in the context of showing off pride or wealth.

WOMEN:

1. Dresses and skirts that reach the knee or below (flowy or fitted but not tight).

2. Tops with appropriate coverage (no deep plunging necklines or backless styles).

3. Jeans or trousers that fit well but aren’t skin-tight (wide-leg, mom jeans, or relaxed fit are great options).

4. Layering (e.g., wearing a cardigan over sleeveless tops, or legging under a short dress).

5. Like men, a small or medium cross necklace (not too much accessories or jewellery,if the reason is to show off/pride and show wealth).

!! By the way, for more ideas/inspo for modest Christian outfits or clothing, I recommend looking on Pinterest<33

I hope y’all enjoyed this subject and learnt some new information,and remember God loves you and wants to hear from you,God bless,and till next time 🤍.

1 PETER 3:3-4-

“Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewellery or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.”

JAMES 4:6

“But He gives more grace. Therefore, it says, ‘God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

1 SAMUEL 16:7

“But the Lord said to Samuel, ‘Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

MATTHEW 5:16-

“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”

Used IbisPaint for the first time, enjoy this very saturated piece of Rusty from Warriors 😽

I first saw your art on Deviantart and I love it so much! Which program and brushes do you use pls (any art advice as well 👉👈)

hello! Thank you soo much for the kind words! To answer your question I use Ibispaint as my primary drawing program because I'm broke lol. I mostly just use textured brushes

I also just overlay paper textures on my stuff and add chromatic aberration filters on them. Sorry if it isn't exactly helpful, I'm figuring out this stuff too. Good luck on your art journey I wish you the best. Just remember to have fun (and not be afraid to use references)

Rough drawing I did on my laptop, sneak peek on Bakugou's design I'm working on :3

7 Christian Solutions For When Doubts Creep In

Christian Doubts

Doubt is a natural part of the human experience, and for Christians, it can feel particularly challenging. Whether it stems from personal struggles, questions about faith, or external circumstances, doubting one's beliefs is not uncommon. However, navigating through these doubts can lead to a deeper understanding and a stronger faith. Here are several strategies that can help Christians address and overcome doubt.

1. Acknowledge Your Doubt

The first step in dealing with doubt is to acknowledge it. Ignoring or suppressing doubts can lead to confusion and frustration. Recognizing that it’s okay to question your faith allows you to confront these feelings honestly. Remember that many religious figures, including those in the Bible, grappled with doubt. This acknowledgment is a vital step toward growth.

2. Seek Understanding

Doubt often arises from a lack of understanding. Delve into scripture, study theological texts, or explore teachings from trusted pastors or mentors. Asking questions and seeking knowledge can help clarify uncertainties. Remember that faith does not require having all the answers; it often starts with curiosity and a desire to learn.

3. Pray and Meditate

Prayer can be an effective tool in overcoming doubt. Take time to communicate with God about your feelings and questions. You can seek guidance, clarity, and comfort. Meditation on scripture or the nature of God can also help center your thoughts and ease fears.

4. Engage in Community

Being part of a faith community can provide support during times of doubt. Share your feelings with trusted friends, family members, or a pastor. Hearing others' experiences and perspectives can illuminate your own situation and provide solidarity. Remember that you are not alone in your struggles.

5. Reflect on Past Experiences

Take time to reflect on past experiences when you faced doubt and how you overcame those challenges. Recognizing the ways you have grown can serve as a reminder of God's faithfulness. These reflections can provide encouragement and reinforce the truth of your beliefs.

6. Embrace Uncertainty

Faith inherently involves an element of uncertainty. Learning to coexist with doubt can help strengthen your faith. Embrace the notion that questions do not negate belief; rather, they can deepen it. Allow yourself to explore these uncertainties without fear, and recognize that growth often comes from grappling with difficult questions.

7. Focus on God’s Promises

Revisit the promises found in scripture regarding God’s love, faithfulness, and purpose. Meditating on these promises can provide comfort and reassurance. God’s truth is a firm foundation to rely on during times of uncertainty. Reflecting on His unwavering nature can help alleviate doubts.

Dealing with doubt as a Christian is an ongoing journey that many face. By acknowledging doubts, seeking understanding, engaging in prayer, and participating in community, you can navigate through these challenging times. Embrace the questions and uncertainties, knowing that they can ultimately lead to a deeper and more resilient faith. God is present in your doubt, guiding you towards a stronger relationship with Him. Remember, the journey of faith is not about having all the answers but rather about cultivating trust in God, even amidst uncertainty.

Always keep God in your life!
