After making my friends watch atsv, I was challenged by one of them to design the Iranian spiderman
And i couldn't say no
Also heres a little sheet i made of where i got the inspiration for each part of the design
hey i don't want to be mean but since samirah is hijabi it's bad form to show her neck or hair. i know riordan does it in the books but his portrayal of her there is quite bad - there are lots of guides on the ways to draw hijabi respectfully if you look them up
Dear I'm a Muslim myself
I know about hijab's rules...
The reason I let a few strands of hair show was pretty personal, as an Iranian hijab was abusively forced to me, and in school they used to terrorise us with threats like if one strand of your hair shows, youre going to be hung over from that on strand in hell.
The way Samirah was described, she isn't very bound to traditions. She has her own beliefs. Even if theyre not totally Islam-accurate, theyre hers, with her allah.
Thats why I let a few strands of hair show, to show its not THAT serious, a few strands is more than fine.
And for the neck, different muslims have different beliefs, depends on you honestly.
Basically, seeing Samirah's fanart on google and stuff, i get it, its offensive cuz like theres a lot a lot of hair showing.
But a few strands of hair will always seem fine to me...
I hope i explained this well?
Sorry if i got too personal. Hijab is something i can talk about for days😅
Life sucks rn
Wip of my take on artemis's children:
First born kid is Aurora Julius Fowl Rider (yes her middle name is after Root, that made Holly tear up.) but everyone calls her Jack or Jacky. The nickname came from a time in her childhood when she wanted to be a pirate like captian Jack Sparrow and Alex started calling her little Jacky and it kinda stuck. Shes got brown eyes and black hair. Shes kind of a mix of both Artemis and Alex. Is very athletic, also very intelligent. Shes obsessed with guns, and builds her own high tech guns. She grew up very close to Holly and also wanted to be an police officer just like her. She takes a lot of risks, loves to party and of course, shes gay.
She graduated academy a few years early and kicked criminals' asses in New York City since she was 16. She also worked as a spy for LEP.
+i just need to add some angst, she dies in her twentis.
Ill be posting about the next two children too.
Meet Holly
Shes my new bunny!
