WHATT!! HAPPY FOUR MONTHS!!
WAIT ITS THE 28TH
HAPPY FOUR MONTHS CANARY CONTINUITY
*sharply inhales* I just got done reading Canary Continuity: Caged Lungs by @qoldenskies ...and all I can genuinely say from the bottom of my heart is...WHAT THE ACTUAL—?!?!?
NOT ONLY is the writing of this fanfic SPECTACULARLY SOUNDLY WRITTEN it also DESTROYED MY WHOLE BEING AND SOUL (in a good way!) I cried and wept with Donnie on such a personal level and I made the mistake of reading this at work (it was a slow day so not many customers) but I was trying so hard not to cry as I kept reading this wonderful piece of literature.
I'm still screaming on the inside. Screaming for Donnie and his brothers and I just—I JUST!!! AAAGGHH I want to hold them all and never let go and OH MY SOUL!! If you haven't read this I strongly suggest it. It's such a wonderful Rottmnt fanfic and it's just written so eloquently and beautifully. I will be revisiting this story so often it might be unhealthy but it's fiiiiiiiiiinnneee. I'm fine. I promise. PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING ROTTMNT, GO READ IT.
Oh and please be mindful of the tags of the story some of it can be very sensitive to other people.
took another crack at properly drawing cc!don's shell .... this would be pre-kraang obviously, i kind of feel like the aftermath of the infection would make the scar look like a gigantic burn mark there. i'll definitely play around with it a little later
I've had this in my gallery for a while
For some reason I always associate CC with the song "fish in a birdcage". Idk why, just, vibes ✨
heehee bird :3 i can see it tho!
Welcome to the clutches of the birb curse👍
Ok I started reading the Canary Continuity and I'm perishing
It is so good
I may or may not be drawing fanart sometime lol
fanart for @qoldenskies's caged lungs fic 💥💥
it isn't based on any scene in particular, just my overall interpretation and visualization of things I felt. mostly bad things. but apparently human brains enjoy that. so let's go
I'm gonna ramble now, buckle up
Frankly that's the first personal piece I've drawn in months, and I'm grateful for it. I'm grateful that I was able to feel emotions and wanted to draw something again
I struggle a lot with empathy and understanding of other's feelings and displaying my own but. I hope people will feel something by looking at it, too
I've got inspired by the old tale that we used to read on literature lessons, altho I for the life of me can't remember the name of it, or anything else from the plot for that matter. There were a competition for retrieving the jug from the bottom of the river, where many men tried and failed, as they couldn't reach it. As you can already tell, it was a reflection of the jug that was hanged on a tree all along.
I liked the concept of something unreachable being seen as being very close to you :) hence the whole water situation
generally water is seen as a positive symbol in art but for me it's cold, slippery, you can't see shit in it, misleading and uncomfortable. go figure
and I really like how CL displays yellow as a color with negative connotation while it's classically being the The Most Happy Coded Color Ever.
while I'm at it I wanted to share a song I associate with caged lungs in particular
just let it die!
I would have liked to talk more about how awesome the fic is and how invested I'm in the plot and characters and how noticing details and parallels makes my brain go brrrr but I'm shy and not really eloquent with my words. I hope you will get the idea anyway. I love it <3
& textless version :0
If you spot any symbolism, it's probably there. or not. up to you really. that's how art works. have fun
So this is what happens when my fav villain from the franchise also becomes the main villain of the fanfic I'm obsessed with. I was gonna share this before chapter 15 came out but apparently @qoldenskies works at lightspeed
Umm I also got shitty close-ups
@qoldenskies 's au has latched onto my brain so I had to draw something to get it out of my system
I'll make something more thought out once I have time and energy but I am eating this story up with every new chapter
Yeah so this fanart coming across my dash is what brought me to Canary Continuity in the first place and today I finally read the scene. Big feels
I'd also like to take this moment to belatedly express the visceral shock of finding out he was locked up for FOUR DAYS HOLY FUCK back when I read Miner's Eulogy, that line gave me chills fr
FANART BEAM!!! ur story changed my brain forever
hHHHHHHHHhhhHHHHHHH GUAHHHHHHHH YOUR LIGHTING IS SO GORGEOUS???? WOW THIS HURTS
