I Recently Finished Watching Jimmy’s Third Life So Naturally I Had To Make Fanart

I drew Emilee Petersmark of The Crane Wives :D

I can’t find the reference picture I used so sorry 😭

This was my first time trying to draw anything even mildly realistic and it actually came out well! (It is a picture from my sketchbook so it’s not the best image quality)

(Yes, the color’s off on the bottom left. I had to scribble out my signature because ✨ online safety ✨)

Arguably the best image on my phone

I sure hope my favorite musician doesn't hit me with lazers today!

The nefarious sparkbird:

I made things!

(apollo cheese for the low quality picture)

All the lonely people,

where do they all come from?

All the lonely people…

where do they all belong?

(song - Eleanor Rigby by The Beatles) (but the version I had stuck in my head while drawing this was the cover by Cinematic Pop)

From the Ashes

Based on the hybrid ideas of @fifthhaemony! I love the idea of Jimmy as a phoenix so I had to draw him

Was I researching bird anatomy late at night for this? Yes. Do I have any regrets? Absolutely not

I have an idea that I wanted to share!

What if Oli (OrionSound) isn't part of the Life series because he's actually one of the Watchers controlling it? Before you dismiss it hear me out:

In Jim's series Border Hoarder, Oli is so impulsive and acts almost EXACTLY the way that I imagine Watchers when he gets mad. Most of the time he's just a chill little guy, but when he gets mad, oh boy does he get mad.

Border Hoarder spoilers under cut read at your own risk!

There will also be occasions where he seems to slip out of his mask of innocence and act like someone or something completely different. For example, that one time where he stared at Jimmy while he had his back turned and said, and I quote, "Only one of us is gonna make it out alive, and it's gonna be me." What Oli‽ This series doesn't have one set winner?? And he said it in such a tone like he knew it as a pure fact and with such hatred...ahhhhhh. And the fact that it was directed at Jimmy too is crazy (CaNaRy~)

And that one time that Joel got an item before Oli did and Oli got so angry that he just went and killed them all (meaning Joel, Lizzie, and Jimmy). Joel tried to speak but he was never given a chance. Lizzie was silent. Jimmy tried to hide and, the moment he thought he'd convinced Oli to spare him, Oli turned around and killed him too. Now take note they all respawn but yet, the moment Jimmy is dead, Oli yells, "I HAVE WON! I'VE FINALLY WON!"

So definitely something Watcher-like going on.

In addition, he also voices the snails and trivia bots in Wild Life - the two NPCs with the highest kill counts.

Also I think Border Hoarder needs more appreciation lore-wise. There's so much to work with.

Anyways thus concludes my Oli Watcher rant. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

A quick fWhip drawing because he deserves more attention :)

Whats your favorite crane wives album?? rn or in general

I was gonna ask fav song but that might be just too hard to pick lmao

Definitely TFIHWG, I love it SO much (I may or may not have every song in that album memorized-) (well that's the case for their entire discography soooo)

Favorite song...ummm, gotta be Canary in a Coal Mine or Here I Am

Or Back to the Ground

Or Once & for All

Or Easier

As you said it's hard to choose 😭

Kind of strange how the season Martyn won was the only season Ren was not in.

Did Ren see his win coming and manipulate the Watchers into letting him stay away, only to reward Martyn his crown at the end?

I dunno, I just feel like there's something to that.

For those of you who have read Scythe by Neal Shusterman AND know the Life series, hear me out here:

Scar as a Scythe. The man so afraid to kill now the one sentenced to bring death to every. Single. Person.

And his final test would be to redo Third Life, same ending fight and everything, except this time, he wins.

I don't care who does it, I just need this to exist 😭
