**I recommend clicking on the image to view it in HD because Tumblr made it look blurry :')** (this 72 is not mine, here is his blog ^w^)
"Glory and Gore go hand in hand
that's why we're making headlines
you could try and take us, but victory's contagious"
I am so excited to be sharing this drawing. I've had the idea for this drawing in my head since the day after last Christmas (so December 26th 2024 xD). I was listening to Glory and Gore by Lorde and thinking how it was already a pretty "Once-ler coded" song, but then this image flashed in my mind. I thought the song would be perfect for 2012 and 72 art because 2012 could be the glory (because 2012 Once-ler is not actually very greedy but is very prideful instead, and is mostly the one that started the fandom) and 72 could be the gore (because the 72 version of the Lorax is much darker in feel and 72ler seems more evil in comparison to 2012), and they could literally be holding hands. I was fangirling at my own imagination but didn't have the skills to bring the drawing to live yet.
Until this October! I finally felt ready to draw this! And oh boy this was a hard drawing to make, I worked on it for a week, it must have taken me like 15 hours if I were to guess xD. I drew everything in this artwork except for the Lorax billboard which is from the movie. But I am so proud of this art, it looks just how it did in my mind!
I wanted 12's side of the drawing to look a little brighter and for him to literally be facing a blue sky and trees as if he's still unaware of the damage he's doing. There's news reporters and cameras and money on his side to show the "glory", while 72's side is all dead trees, pollution and darkness to show the destruction of nature and the "gore".
Also I must point out that the 72ler in this drawing is a popular Once-ler OC and askblog! (Link to blog here!! ^w^) I really love this 72 and know that most of the fandom does as well, so I knew he had to be the one in this drawing! <3 I hope I did him justice and I send his mod lots of love!! Thank you for creating this wonderful character! ^w^ (Just wanted to be clear that this is not 72ler's canon design nor my design, this is somebody else's beloved OC!^^) I wanted to link Entre's blog as well (Link here ^^) because even though this wasn't intended to be 1272 ship art, I know this 72ler and Entre were often shipped sooo if you my dear viewer want to view that 12ler as Entre you totally can xD!
