I Like To Draw Bill As A Father

Hey I know the fandom likes to make jokes about Bill and depth reception, but let’s be real for a moment and consider the fact that he’s actually got

Really

Good

Aim

Enough so that I’d call him a sharpshooter.

A few more sketches.

Including my boy Thistlebert.

reposting some old drawings because i can

Sometimes strange ideas come up😅 But I like it. If you cross Bill and Axolotl, you get something cute

He thinks alone.

I think it happens at a time when he was forced to be away from the band.

At first I planned to draw only Stanley, but then I thought that somehow it was not good for him alone. As a result, Ford joined him😅

It was an unusual style for me. But I decided to try.

The amount of "joking" hostility people display in the tags for their gravity falls posts is impressive.

You're scrolling through and you catch the OP policing interpretations (usually) billford, as if people where mis-tagging left and right. Even on posts with very little engagement.

The only reason I ever had to do that, was people mis-tagging my art as fiddauthor, even when I wrote in big bold red letters that wasn't my intention.

Fiddauthor is so popular people treat it like the default, but billford? I dunno people are pretty shit to anyone who likes Bill let alone ships him with anyone. I doubt there are many people going around assuming stuff is billford especially given the casual hostility.

It seems a little overkill?

Don't worry, with the amount of rudness, joking or otherwise, I wasn't about to dare commit the crime of interpreting x as y, even as a joke heavens forbid.

Sod off. Its unnecessary and makes others feel unwelcom or wrong.

I understand not liking something but this behaviour feels like it justifies being an asshole on the basis of a difference of opinions.

Point is shipping anything other than fiddauthor in this fandom fuxking sucks. You have people assuming your stuff is fiddauthor unless specified otherwise, and then you have people telling others (With much more hostility) that you shouldn't interpret this as billford. On a post with less than a 200 notes where no one was even doing that in the first place.

These are popular artists who's stuff I see everywhere.

They're not doing anything wrong by specifying dislike or discomfort. But their collective attitude about it, coupled with their popularity, creates an impression of superiority and high-horsedness.

As well as this wierd "correct vs false" idea even though its more "popular vs unpopular"
