love getting a compliment/threat/warning all in one go when the TSA agent goes “good thing you’re using your passport to fly domestic, especially with your accent” glad my paranoia and fear that sounding foreign means I’m in danger anywhere I go in these United States

for those of you who wish for rain youtu.be/3hpHSnVt8No

I am a sap for songs about love. Currently on repeat is Machine Love with Teto. When "my heart sings a chorus out of tune" turns to "my heart beats a rhythm just for you" I get all sad. 🥹

Harriette, my beautiful doll. Ah, this is a dream come true, having Natsumi Kei (Umineko manga fame) drawing my OC. I am floating in happiness. Those eyes are so beautiful...

2011 Design (left) VS 2019 Design (right) sure do hit different. Inner weeb won.

Currently cooking up character and plot ideas. I like drawing out things, helps me justify it could possibly happen in a very, very soft bs science way. Steampunk ass idea, I'll use it in a TTRPG at least.

Oh my gawd! Look at this little doll! Awwww! It even comes with the slug and holds it with magnet hands. She's precious!! I just grabbed a preoder as I am NOT missing out like I did with signalis merch. #Bloodborne www.fangamer.eu/collections/...

Discord is dying, they do know about it and are trying to fix it. If in doubt look here: discordstatus.com

I'm just saying that the most intimate thing you can do with a doll jointed girl is cleaning all the little gaps between limps with a tiny pipe cleaner. It means they trust you a lot.

Frothing at the manifestation of artist joining skeb

Caroline Beatrix Arbuthnot, political hostess of her husband, an MP and "mother" of the doll Harriette. A cunning woman currently seeking to have her husband and doll daughter assassinated in order to further her original family line of the Horton's after a rather failed family.

If you are an Umineko fan with OCs, talk to me about them. I wanna know how the story has affecting character creation. Send us a DM, I don't bite.

Current Steam Wishlist: NIGHTMARE OPERATOR 7 Days to End with You SILENT HILL f Misericorde: Volume One The Clean Knife S4U: CITYPUNK 2011 AND LOVE PUNCH Seems a decent list right?

I love posting wips because I love my dolls even like this. Harriette I wub you, you toxic yuri doll.

Eventually, I will c0mm every umineko artist I can for my characters. Why? idk Maybe just so I can see umineko characters and mine in the same style since it's big influence on me. I mean, the expressions I chose to c0mm for Caroline are right from Natsumi Kei's parts of the manga.

I have received WIPs 4 & 5. Caroline is fed up and also she's scheming.

This is something different I got a long time ago from the archives. The original estimated costs of modernsation for HMS Hood and their timings, also mentioned are Rodney and Nelson. Figured it'd be more interesting to see the orignal views of ADM 229/20 than a typed out one.

So I got to start planning the next TTRPG for when it's my turn to GM. Players wish to go back to the victorian doll-verse again so I can be a bit more specific on ideas now rather than vagueness. Sisnce none of them are on hear I can talk about them more. So I shall list and add to them here...

I got another WIP She's mad at you. (you lost her glasses)

Look, let me be real with you those who work/play on computers all day. Do stretches. Exercise those arm muscles. Make sure they are strong. RSI/Tendonotis is painful and annoying and rather disruptive. Make sure you take breaks for real and do warm up stretches. srsly

Need to start planning the next TTRPG for the gang. We've just had a Transformers WFC themed one and a Heart of Darkness one. Next is the first time GMing guy who's doing a goofy G.I Joe one which should mean it's very casual and goofy. So for me I have a few ideas...

More Caroline, annoyed but she's still pretty.

Here's a 2018 era picture of a steam train I caught going under the bridge I was walking over. Was lucky to catch such a shot, beautiful thing.

First OC based merch here, Matilda on the Right (and in keyring form :O ) and @naihcy.bsky.social 's Yu on the left. Thank you to Naih for showing me the way on how to get these. There can only be more from here on out. They're so pretty 🥹

Past couple of weeks I have been really pushing myself hard on the hand exercises to get over this tendonitis. It’s had mixed results. Left hand has seen improvement, the right one not so much.

Caroline, pretty.... Also smug.

The Games & Manga that stuck with me over the years.

Stolen List. You Steal this too. Name: Perr/Perri Pronouns: He/Nerd Sexuality: straight Height: 170 cm | 5'7 Piercings: 0 Tattoos: 0 Color: Dark Blue / Wine Red Fav Drink: Water/Irn Bru Fav food: Chocolate/Biltong Fav Animal: Ferrets/Foxs/Magpies I'm going to post like games and manga after this

I do feel what I write is a case of "If you don't like it, do something about it." I do not like a lot of things yet I am putting those things in what I write in a way I find more engaging? I suppose that can be considered constructive rather than simply hating and moving on? I'm not sure.

I have taken my first steps into the OC Merch hole and I do not think I will be coming out any time soon.

Finally! The trailer for Chapter 4 of Crown Handler! #pripri www.youtube.com/watch?v=9anZ...

Despite how typical steampunk Princess Principal comes off as. The story was about the characters and not the steampunk so I was able to appreciate and enjoy it despite my initial hesitancy. #pripri #プリンセス・プリンシパル

Okay so I use steampunk to describe the story but is it right? Is there punk? Maybe... It's like a story about master and creation. A story about identity and grief. There is not so much the punk that is the rebellion against the higher class. I don't think much punk is, it's often about the tech

So this is Mei Lin. The third doll. Her themes in the story is identity of her former human self and then of her new doll self. She is also a reflection of 19th century racism, orientalism amd Japonism.

I did recently discover that I gave a character a name that is sadly super similiar to a Kuroshitsuji. Kuroshitsuji: Mey Rin Me: Mei Lin / May Lyn I already committed to the name though so....Oh well. Coincidence noted...

I'm going to talk about a basic story theory I saw a long time ago but stuck with me since I read it. The book it was from wasn't a how to draw manga book, it was a how to write manga stories. I think it was "Comickers Art 3" which I brought for someone in 2009, not without reading it a bit first.

beautiful clockwork doll, i love her so much 🥹

Nothing special. I just wanna gush about my clockwork doll OC. Look at her, she is beautiful! I love so much. She's so new to the world, poor thing. 🥹

Media Thread 2025 Aka, What am I consuming atm. Will be updated every now and then. Mostly Victorian Related Stuff.

Artist friend sent me first wip sketch of a character expression sheet. Caroline looking quite beautiful here, despite how evil she tends to look most of the time.

Had a fun time talking about "The Illustrated Police News" today with a friend, we both enjoyed how victorian era shit post it felt. Also discovered that in America they do not have "Annuals" at christmas. Which if you don't know is what Sherlock holmes started in.

Victorian Era (Give or take) things that I think are interesting. 1. London Necropolis Railway 2. Thames River Police and succesors 3. Birmingham Jewellery Quarter 4. Gin Palaces 5. Post-mortem photography 6. Rogue Gothic architecture 7. Edinburgh Vault slums 8. Mesmerism

I wonder what attracts the uh.... "Automated reply demons" to posts. I didn't even mention the AHEM "payment to an artistian for goods and services" *wink wink* and two appeared. Is it because I said Skeb or rkgk? (this post is semi bait)

What do you call it when draw a character in lots of different facial expressions? Like face study or something, idk. I want to ask an artist on skeb for that, I don't want a fancy pick I just want rkgk of a character with lots of different expressions.

So for a first arc I decided I was going to go with a musical themed arc. Here I wanted to mix victorian antiquarian with music and narcissism. So here we have Naomi, a composer/singer who is taking central london by storm for her encaptivating music. No matter the reviewer, she always gets 10/10

idk where to go with this, it's ahistorical but I did cheat steampunk tech forward a few years with a sprinkle of anime BS 🤓

Alrighty let's talk politics in this story. I don't think I could ever follow the politics of the time with accuracy. Not with the Gladstone & Disraeli rivalry, that is more than any fiction writer could make. I had to mess the political timeline much like I have with the technological one.

This is Lord Brimslow, known to most friends and enemies as Lord Brimstone, the current prime minister in my story and the primary "seen" antagonist He is a man who is constantly scheming and planning in order to solidify a lasting political legacy. He also looks like old joseph joestar lol

Now I suppose that for Victorian or Steampunk stories. Trains and/or Airships are quite easy places for opposite factions to meet and not flee from one another. There is after all very little escape from a moving train unless you are desperate. Though you could argue it's forced...
