Also, VHS tapes did not have menu screens. Your only options were play, fast forward, rewind, pause, stop, or eject.

How to make a comic: these handouts by Disney artist Carson van Osten are chock-full of practical tips and suggestions regarding staging and storytelling. Save them, study them.

I was reminded that this was taking up space in my notes app so here just take it

Hunk calling the cadets noobs

GRISTLE DEFENSE

Hunk casually leaning on the fourth wall

“We’re under assault from the giant robotic eye! And yes, I’m aware of how insane that sounds!”

Ninja scientist zombies

“Pidge, are we seriously doing the robot?”

“I’ll tell you all about it if you help me out of this garbage”

Lance vs. Door Top Ten Epic Anime Battles

“activate… Hunk… head”

“So we’re gonna go crash the biggest zombie party in history?” “Yup”

“Sometimes I forget we have last names”

Keith and Lance: (participating in a car chase) Hunk, Pidge, and Allura: (leave them to go get burgers)

“Plan A was, ‘follow ship, use giant robot’”

Hunk canonically stinks at bowling

“Pidge, I really need you to say something scientific right now” “I… I’ve got nothin’!”

“And there goes half our strength, tell me you don’t do this stuff on purpose just to make it more exciting”

Hi, thank you for the Ask!

I’m sorry it too so long to respond. Great questions!

I seem to be lacking soft Hazar images…

I love Hazar because first and foremost, he’s a rare character type.

While there are plenty of characters similar to him, there are almost none that fit his type exactly. The reasons are numerous, but suffice to say, for whatever reason nobody wants to write noble Byronic antagonists that have character growth, complex motivations, are willing to learn/switch sides, etc and survive the story (obvs, in the source material—Dairugger XV—Socrat Teles dies in the typical Eastern tragic-ending kind of way).

Hazar has a good mix of flaws and strengths. He is caught between two kinds of enemies: the protagonists, and political rivals. That’s one of my favorite kinds of situations for an antagonist to be in. Hazar is a great leader, skilled in tactics and strategy and he has a code of honor that he follows. He will fight for glory until it runs up against his code or risks his people. He has a stubborn belief in the “system” which is easily exploited by Throk. It’s a trait that has strengths and weaknesses.

I also like that Hazar has a bit of a smart mouth and temper to him. He’ll dress down someone like Captain Twyla for being a dumbass and undermining him, but will still show mercy. His anger and pain at the exile of Captain Mongo (who dies in Dairugger) show that even though Mongo was a bit of a early rival to him, that they had grown closer as he earned Mongo’s loyalty.

I ment to post this after the last nexo knights art piece but there were difficulties.... 🫠

If those of you who need it, here's the dialogue under the cut because my handwriting sucks 🫡

So some asshole has thought up a new Tumblr scam: it's a post on a Tumblr account that's named something to make it look official-ish.

Variations include:

account-help

account-sync

account-update

account-updating

These posts show up on your dashboard, telling you that because they think you've monetized your Tumblr account, they're putting you in the penalty box sending you to the cornfield setting you to "Lurker Mode" where you can post but no one will see your posts. And, naturally, all you have to do is click on the helpful link to give tumblrsupport your account data to get it fixed.

Friends, this is a big fat lie.

The official location of Tumblr Support is https://www.tumblr.com/support or https://support.tumblr.com. And guess what? They'll already have your account information.

Tumblr has no such thing as Lurker Mode.

If you right-click on their link, you'll see it's a munged/shortened link. You can go to a site like https://www.expandurl.net to expand that link and see where it takes you: it's not Tumblr Support.

@staff, please be aware this is happening.

OH NEVER MIND
