⬆️ Fan-art-photo-faffing for Department Q; Carl Mørck (played by MG) at a Greasy Spoon - Part 3; all made up/just for fun whilst we patiently await the show
Let’s call this ‘Variations on an MG-string’ - Mørck’s mood from cool to warm to abso-bloody-lutely (re: Mona/Rachel, of course). This series of edits imagines a meeting between Carl and Rachel at a beachfront cafe after a windswept walk. Perhaps it’s Portobello Beach. Perhaps it’s a date. Or could turn into a date. Who knows.

Hurry up Netflix and give us some info so I can stop overthinking it! 😂 Can’t wait!
mixed media fan-art-photo-faffing - just for fun
Dinner time?
Fan Art/photo faffing made with Procreate using screenshots from the film Abigail. Could still use a bit of work but you get the picture, hopefully. My head is full of vampires (again) following the release of The Black Bird Oracle 🧛❤️
Daddy Cool - A work in progress 🧛🧛♀️ (to go with Chapter 26 of The Visitor on AO3) using new brushes for Procreate from BigPearLiu. Love ‘em!
(Ana) ~ a daydream based on Ch 18 and 19 of The Visitor (AO3) - drawn in Procreate ✍️
✍️ Tonight I‘ve been working on some digital drawing techniques and process learned from the @liliyth tutorials I did yesterday as well as trying out some of her brushes in Procreate. I‘m not sure the finished result looks like Melissa in the end, but I was trying to capture the coy mood of the reference (swipe left and please let me know if you know who to credit for it - I found it on Pinterest and now can‘t find the original source 😬). The brushes are ace and I am loving experimenting with liliyth‘s process and style. BIG fan of hers.
Yes to absolutely all of these ideas. Especially Lazaar v Frank, which I also often have on the brain 👌 That would be a whoooole lot of fun 🫠
Whose your favorite Comfort character in Abigail? And why?
Joey! I just love that she’s so smart (and bloomin’ beautiful) and skilled and funny but also flawed. I find her relationship with Abigail fascinating and confusing and can never 100% work it out. I’m always pondering the fact she was spared by both Abigail and Lazaar. What weird vampire code of conduct is this?! I love her final WTF line in the film and the way Melissa Barrera delivers it and I think about that a lot. I wonder what on earth she did next after driving away (and will always hope there’s a sequel and she’s a vampire). And - of course - I love the idea of Lazaar falling for Joey… even though that doesn’t actually happen in the film (it really does in my mind 😂). She’s a comfort character for me because there are so many things to wonder about her and I think Melissa Barrera absolutely smashed her portrayal. Soooo, not a very original answer from me, I’m afraid. How about you?

Oh my.
I haven’t (yet) seen Stoker so I wasn’t aware of ‘The Mustard Effect’.
I am now.
Thank you 🫠
Inspired by some of the amazing Good Omens fan art out there, I experimented with a different style and a new (MaxPacks) brush set in Procreate. This sketch is intended to capture loving a vampire - not knowing if he’s going to bite you or kiss you… and feeling happy either way 😜 Still not over Lazaar and Joey, evidently 😂
Added some yellow options especially for @asgoodeasgold because she LOVES a yellow filter 😜😬🙃

OK. Now you made me need a ‘Covenant Breaking’ section in all lingerie departments. Just next to ‘Mix and Match’.
(🔊 on) A Discovery of Witches Real Time Read Ch17
"I want to take you home."
Matthew wants to take Diana to Sept Tours so he can protect her.
This is my favourite scene in the whole show, their coming together and leaving Oxford to meet their future. It's so unbelievably romantic and swoony and exciting, it gives me all the feels 💓💓💓
And the way Matthew looks at Diana 💓🫠

🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠. The end.
(in the US but frankly it should be an international thing!). To celebrate, here are Matthew Goode and James Purefoy enjoying cheese and wine in the Camargue sunshine after a hard day horse riding and rounding up cattle.
I love Matthew's ecstatic faces, he is in his happy place 😆. I am with him, cheese and wine are one of the best things in life!
Also just noting in passing, the thumb, the open shirt and neck (THAT Bblue shirt 🩵🩵), the gorgeous smile 🫠

Yep, I’m still daydreaming about Lazaar. And having fun drawing him on Procreate. Tried the brilliant tutorial by Laura Rubin, in her book, and some of her fab skin brushes. I ended up overworking it (as usual 🙄) and doesn’t massively look like him BUT I was trying to capture the mood and that look.
Talking of that look,
…here’s a little photo edit of who he’s looking at (in my mind anyway 😜):
And here’s one of the beautiful original edits by @asgoodeasgold that I used as a reference 😍:
And here’s a rambling chapter which features that look:
Overcooked and nonsensical, as usual, but it’s just for fun so who cares?! 🧛❤️
Ooh, I like that angle. He would indeed have supreme self control. I tried to write some more. But he turned into MDCM again. (That man/creature/fictional-unattainable-wishlist-setter has a lot to answer for). I’ll try again. Or maybe just do two alternatives because who needs sleep anyway? 🧛❤️🩸
Mood: Lazaar / languor
Refusing to do his vampire thing. And driving Ana to distraction. Imaginary, inexpert edits on an Abigail theme.
Wrote a little bit to go with these on AO3. It waffles. It’s undercooked or overcooked. A bit much or not enough. Can’t really decide. But - happily - it’s just for fun.
