Couple of Project Hail Mary doodles!!

The first one was my idea of what he would go for as a jingly celebrations outfit ahah the eridians collect and make him all sorts of beads; even if they're sad that their most resonant materials are toxic to Grace. They settle on some of the lightest metals they have plus porous rocks (trying to avoid extra weight as much as possible because of, well, extra gravity).

Grace has a fun week sorting them by colour which is incomprehensible to them (to the point someone alerts rocky that the human has been pushing the same beads around arbitrarily and is he ok??)

It is not the best sounding outfit anyone has heard but they're happy Grace is well enough to celebrate with them!

We need to start commenting under other people's posts about how to properly warn for flashing lights and eyestrain. We need to be emailing and calling companies about their possibly triggering advertisements that could induce seizures. We need to stop tolerating ableism and start speaking up for the more vulnerable.

Also, stop putting epilepsy warnings. That's like saying "warning: schizophrenia" on a post including unreality or "warning: dyslexia" on a post with a typing quirk. First off, the disability mentioned isn't the only group of people that this could trigger. Second, it doesn't truly get the message across and instead makes it worse for those with the disability-- scrolling through the epilepsy tag on Tumblr should get you to view the content of other epileptic people, but no, you just get a bunch of flashing lights and eyestrain, even though you could instead tag for, oh I dunno, flashing lights and eyestrain.

Just to try and help out and spread the word, there are two chrome extensions I've found that might be able to help.

Seizafe: This extension scans youtube videos and warns you if they contain things like flashing lights that could cause a seizure.

CogniShield: This extension (supposedly, it has like no reviews) dims the screen to a safe level if flashing lights are detected; it can also be used to limit volume. It might help.

i saw ur art of simon and i wanted to try coloring it *^____^*

OHHHH MY GOOODDD🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 THIS IS SO GOOOOOD

Scrolled past and thought it was the one I coloured for a moment 😭

Two pilots detected 🫢

So... cat man Simon

This was very interesting to do! I usually draw with very thick lines that I colour to match the underlying colour, so having thinner lines was a challenge but in a good way. I thought of leaving the line art black, but in the end I just couldn't resist and coloured it in a few places. I know my style is a bit childish with the cell shading, but that's just what I always do and I like it. I hope you do too heh.

I love your art so much maybe I'll colour another one in the future

HOLY SHIIITT DUDDEE!!!! You are insane this is so goooddd?!?!!! Gosh your coloring works so well with my style its like peanut butter and jelly.

I used to also cell shade! I actually had fun shading till i switched styles and now I’m miserable (personally i think cell shading is awesome sauce)
