Updated Calix design; working on giving him distinct monolids and the little eye pouches, as well as a rounder nose and fuller lips. Certainly a pretty boy; this is a young man who knows full well he's good looking. Skin: moisturized, curls: conditioned, lips: poppin!
So I asked my guy Felipe @feliville , master of color, to make me a Whitewashed™ Patroclus. You heard right! I wanted to see what he looked like, and as an aside I said it'd probably prove that he was a white guy painted brown. And y'all-
Tbh, I almost miss the original 🤣🤣🤣 das a Hwite Man, all right!
To quote 🎤:
"ALRIGHTY, SO, From time to time I make simple Black edits on mediocre or bad Black character designs for funsies, but whitewashing a character on purpouse felt Vile and Horrible to do, it even made my stomach hurt 👎🏽 ,, I hate the end result and I hate that his design is so bad that once the dark grey skintone is gone, there's no traces left that he's Supposed to be Black."
What's wild to me is how good this looks. Not as in attractiveness, but as in this is such a sufficient white guy character design. It's why I be saying I wish people would just... Draw another white man if they're not gonna put in the effort to depict us. No one would have flinched if this was the millionth white Patroclus in the rotation. Well I would have, but no one that companies care about would have.
Anyway, when I asked what he did and if it was possible to use the same technique for Black character design:
"I ONLY CHANGED THE COLORS, NOTHING ELSE... OKI, I MEAN, I DID LIGHTEN IT UP, I used 3 effect?blending? layers.
oh of Course !! I do tht all the time with my Normal edits."
The rest of you can (and really ought to!) reblog, but it's not your turn to talk. Just listen and reflect!
What DOES a good apology for antiblackness look like, to you?
Not a shitty twitter apology that dodges accountability. Not a genuine apology made to white fans to soothe their embarrassment and egos and maintain white solidarity.
What does an ACTUAL apology for antiblackness consist of, to you?
What actions do you need to see from people who claim to be better, to deserve your support despite a history of being unsafe?
Why do you think nonblack people feel they're entitled to grace, and what would actually EARN them your grace? What makes you not want to offer it at all?
I think there's a disconnect between what the group being harmed needs, and what people think the group being harmed should settle for. We've been forced to know the latter. How do Y'ALL feel?

The way adult fandom people hold indie online creators and cartoons to a much higher standard than their actual local politicians. You could be putting that energy into terrorizing and protesting conservatives at your town hall and actually make a good material impact on the world but instead you're background checking everything the trans woman who made the amazing digital circus has ever said
I just think I can be mad at a creator and her workers laughing off nigga jokes with no good apology (yes, even when she's trans) AND have material impact on the society that also makes my life systemically miserable for being said nigga. But I guess that's me, though. 🤷🏾♀️
*If you send me anything after the 13th, I am going to delete it! Pay attention!
Y'all been asking about this one forever, and I admit that I had to really think about how to make something like this possible without dying due to overwork 😅 but I think I got it!
The rules for this one are long and specific, under The Submissions, The Critics, and Things to Expect from Ice. So I'm putting them under a read more.
PLEASE READ THE RULES! Y'all were not reading the rules during the character polls and it drove me nuts 🙏🏾
The Submissions
In order to be accepted, your submissions REQUIRE:
The Title and Genre
The premise of your story- this can be a description, a blurb, a summary, anything that allows us as the reader to understand the set up of what's going on here.
A description of your character- this doesn't have to be their entire life story. We just wanna know their name, what they look like, background, powers- RELEVANT things! Ideally, this should tie in smoothly to the premise!
Think of it as the summary that's on the back of books when you go to read them, plus a little extra. It should pull your reader in!
Rules for Submission:
Character has to be Black. This includes Black biracials, yes! If it's a side character, fine. But don't tell me all about your nonblack MC's life saga just to go "and then here's Black Buddy". Keep that. We want to hear something tailored to the Black character!!
PDF converted into an image. That way we can click it and read the whole thing without it taking up a huge amount of space in the ask. If you can include an image description for accessibility, that would be kind of you.
One Page! 12 Point! Legible Font! You can write your magnum opus if you want, but I won't post it 🤣 twelve point font MINIMUM, one page MAX! Calibri is the font I find easiest to read, but be reasonable.
You don't have to fill the whole page! If you think you've got it in two paragraphs.... Great! Don't use no damn AI though.
Only do this challenge if you're willing to accept constructive criticism. This is a major one! People are going to judge your work. You have to accept that! You're ASKING them to! I will not accept submissions with apologies and clarifications and "this might sound racist now but-" Let the viewers make their own calls, unbiased! It'll reveal to you things you may not have even considered, which will guide your writing. Maybe you'll drop an idea, maybe you'll take on an extra challenge, it's fine!
The Critics
Be constructive, not destructive. These are people looking for genuine feedback. Put on your Mrs. CBC hat and give that to them. You are well within your rights to say when something makes you uncomfortable, or if it's not something you would read due to that discomfort. Use your words to explain WHY. But if you feel yourself about to blow up with how much you hate an idea or a person... Keep it in your head or take it to your own page. We didn't ask for that.
Keep feedback to a reasonable length. I don't mind one or two comments with feedback, but if you got a LOT and you really wanna have this conversation with the poster (which is great!) you can always take it to the OPs inbox! I know it's selfish, but I'm gonna get a lot of notifications from this and if it's a back and forth, that is something that can be held between the two of you!
Understand that the premise is not the entire story. As always, you cannot determine if something is a problem based off of a page worth of context. So when you offer feedback, recognize that you can only approach it from a "consider this idea, because it may be a problem" perspective. Not a "this is inherently bad!!" We've talked about this! It's not on the idea, it's on the writer!
Things to Expect From Ice
For real, I won't be saying much! This is everyone's chance to play as CBC for two weeks lmao. But I will pop in as desired. I do know there's gonna be some little things I'll be checking for in every submission.
I'll be turning notifications off after a point for each one, so I don't get overwhelmed. If something feels wrong, if boundaries are being pushed and it comes to my attention, I may turn off reblogs.
I am not pre-checking submissions! Do not ask me in advance how I feel- that defeats the point of the project.
Okay! If you read this far, good job and thank you 👍🏾
Yesterday I worked on commissions on my living room instead of my bedroom desk for a big chunk of the day, to escape the hellish heat, and god, what a massive mistake.. Drawing sitting in the couch with a tall foldable table somehow made my neck and back hurt like crazy, and my arm still hurts SO MUCH. I wanted to continue drawing today but I do Not want to fuck up my arm more 😔
I never have any sort of back pain or Entire Arm and Hand pain when drawing in my desk, even for most of the day, I guess the desk and chair u draw on Do matter a lot, I always took it for granted, I'm realizing 😔

I have grown to realize a lot of you severely underestimate just how much antiblackness we have to swallow for the sake of our personal peace and our livelihoods. I'm not saying that to be mean or to make you go into a guilt spiral- that would be a useless reaction anyway- but I do want you to consider it. That what you believe to be peace is not just because it "is".
"Well if it was important why didn't anyone say it sooner?" "if it was important, why didn't they say it was racist?" peer, a good 75-80% of what I might say to the white and/or nonblack people that offend me directly goes swallowed for the sake of my paychecks and running water, or God forbid to avoid a bullet. Or if I'm online (where that number shrinks significantly), to be left the fuck alone 🤣
Y'all are very used to not having to hear that feedback bc we've been forcibly socialized into accepting that you won't take it well and often have the power to make it not worth our while to speak. Retaliation is common. That's why it's perturbing to folks when Black people DO speak up. Interrupts the status quo 😅

hi, okay so, i have a commission question for you!!!
its not on your comm sheet, and i hope its not a bother to ask, but do you/would you ever take ref sheet commissions? like 1 full body and a 1 headshot with flat color and no shading type of thing?
if you are open to those, do you have a price range on it?
Since I've never done something like this, I think the price would depend on how much of the character I'm designing,, but still using that 1 fullbody and 1 headshot simple shading drawings as a base price, (90USD in this case)
I am willing to draw a reference sheet commission tho : -] !! If you want, you can DM me and we can talk about the details, to give you a more concrete price.
Blake and Marceline have a mutual interest in comic books, however Marceline never really got to read them when she was younger due to her dyslexia. She’d get angry at her inability and breakdown. Instead, she focused on the drawings, which heavily influenced her love for art and creation. Nowadays, living with Blake, his patience makes it a little easier for her to get through the words.
