Life Series Joel - Blog Posts

What if killjoy wild life Joel???. Another post that appeals to me and end of list. Also ignore how bad this drawing is lol I’m mostly posting cause I like the colors

doodle page of Joel Torreto!

CW: blood. Also he kinda looks like someone maced him in the eyes lol

Last life Joel one of my many beloveds (the other beloveds are every other Joel era). Unstable wizard man I miss you.

The song lyric is from Jeremy by Pearl Jam!! As soon as I have more time to art, I wanna make more pieces based on specific songs because ohoho do I have thoughts.

I was thinking about the parallels between Etho and Joel in Limited Life and Wild Life. They need to meet. I need to know how they would react. I can’t decide if they would be best of friends or worst of enemies.

I’m loving this session’s never-before-seen levels of Joel patheticness/silly

Between family man Joel and tuff guy Etho…it’s like they literally switched places from limited life lol

just two boys in boats, boying and boating.

That’s all! (Also I know the anatomy and stuff is real…funky, on this one, but idk life is short and I’ve kinda realized that people aren’t really going to react more positively if it’s more polished, so I figure that making everything look perfect isn’t really a great use of my time lol)

One very angry trip from The Relation before disaster.

(Not pictured : Etho’s knees snapping in half and then he too vanishes)

I love this screenshot so much. Perfectly timed.

@insomnya777 I’ve been seeing all the posts you’ve been making recently about a very specific duo. I have also seen your pfp. I have also seen the special little guy who is the overlap between these two things. So..

just for you I have drawn them. All three of them. The write adjective here polycule ever. The undeniably something, unclear what thing but completely undeniable. The award winners for most unhinged and simultaneously pathetic group of people to ever have extreme romantic tension with each other. The have (probably) never eaten an american hamburger squad. In other words, the family.

also I wanted to clarify because I was doing all those drawings of Gem and Joel as photos of the way brothers being chaotic that I don’t headcannon them as siblings I headcannon them as chaotic, which isn’t actually a headcannon because it’s already canon. Also have I been spelling headcannon wrong this whole time? lol.

anyway I tried to be all fancy shmancy with the anatomy and Etho’s face was lost in the process but I like how Joel came out looking though, so trade offs ig. Also idk why those arrows are there. Technology hates me. I blame, um, whatever did that.

I’ve been having a really terrible week health wise so to cheer myself up I drew more of Gem and Joel as chaotic sibling energy photos of the Way brothers. Idk if this genre of fanart has an audience but tbh I don’t really care because I had fun drawing it lol. Also for context for non-MCR fans (psh imagine lol/silly /not serious) my chemical romance is a band, a really good band, and the lead singer and the bassist are brothers and also really silly and there are many photos of them sillying together. This is part two of my drawing Gem and Joel as some of said photos.

This is, admittedly, one of the less silly photos from my collection, but they are usually very silly trust! Og photo under cut vv

Imagine, for one glorious moment, across time and space and what is both plausible and possible, a crossover.

I was planning to wait to see how long it took for Tumblr to show this to bluet but I’m very impatient.

@bluetbluish wouldn’t want you to think I’ve gone back on my word and not drawn them

also everyone make sure you go like and rebloob and comment on bluet’s drawing!!!! It’s amazing!!!!!!

(Also bluet I reblooged your drawing of them and there was a typo in my rebloob and it has been haunting me for the past forever. I know what the word um means I assure you I am simply mostly uninformed on the uk beyond whatever the British blorbos show in their videos. Just felt the need to clarify)

My drawing of Gem and Joel that I did for Bluet! We’ll see if she finds this teehee.

The pose is based off of one of the photos from my collection of Gerard and Mikey Way having chaotic sibling energy, because yes I will be making everything about MCR until the I-missed-their-concert blues wears off.

(Also bluet if you do find this I saw your post about collabs and I would love love love to collab again sometime but first I’ve got get the thirty wips I’ve got half finished done, dusted, and posted, plus this big project which may or may not happen)

My alternative piece for day 5: lore! This was actually what I was planning to post day-of, but I wasn’t able to get it finished in time so I posted a drawing that I happened to have finished at the time, even if it didn’t really match the prompt lol.

anyway my pieces for today and tomorrows prompt may be a little late, depending upon when I’m able to finish them.

It was a lot harder to let go during limited life than in the past.

come on Joel! You can do it! Win that series! 7th times the charm! Cause if you lose me the betting pool a seventh time in a row I will personally come and murder you ^^! for legal reasons that was a joke.

…

*shuffles papers* uhh don’t gamble, kids.

(Just wanted to clarify: we don’t bet real money. My sister, a couple of neighbors, and I make a life series betting pool where you are allowed to contribute basically anything but money. Sometimes it’s normal things like a bag of candy or a favorite book, and sometimes someone decides put their 3-D printer on the line. For Jimmy. The printer now lives happily in its new home. Occasionally the original owner is permitted to use it. Anyway it’s all for fun and we all go in knowing there is a chance that we will lose our bets. So far I have lost three different books, the label maker, the rights to pick what’s on tv for a year, and a bag of glitter for Joel.)

also, the reason he has skizz sleeves is because we all like to ruin the surprise for ourselves as soon as we can. Curse you name mc /silly.

You better not lose me my MCR: The Black Parade poster Joel, or I’ll. I’ll. I’ll. Um. I don’t know what I’ll do, but it’ll be real bad. Be scared.

When the boat boys turned red, Joel “green stripe” smallishbeans probably dyed his hair with ease, but Etho might’ve needed a little help. I mean, when you die and come back from the dead as evil murderers, you’ve got to get your makeover just right before you go back and kill everyone!

Someone should write a fic about this where they have to stand really close to each other for Joel to dye Ethos hair properly and they’re weird and gay about it. <- whoa who said that.

Hi guys! Good news, I hucked my broken pencil at a wall in frustration, and it un-broke itself (mostly…), so I spent many hours making a boat boys animatic. Bad new, I don’t know how to sync audio, so I just had to record my iPad and play the song on a separate device. Its really bad quality guys (big sad), but I still think the actual animatic turned out pretty well, even if it’s still in the sketching phase. Anyway, the song is I Was an Island by John-Allison Weiss, go listen to it it’s so hilariously boat boys coded I can’t. Anyway, disclaimer, this is all for sillys and giggles. Also beware the angst.
