Im making the continuation of the Heatsune Miku thing because PLEASE, I NEED TO SEE THIS AS A THING LMAO-

He's about to use his Miku beam. (PLEASE DONT TELL ME IM THE ONLY ONE LOSING MY MIND AT THIS, LOL

No thoughts, only my Miku sona

Heatsune Miku needs to be a thing

THISSSSSS- Their design is so fun, ahhh!! >v<

(P.S. Since a lot of you peeps that follow me like oc x cannon stuff, you should also follow them, they have quite a bit!! :3)

One Piece OC

Magma Egghead 🥚

If you want to see more content about Magma: click here ♡

I have already mentioned in my previous posts that Magma joined Vegapunk on Egghead after the events of Whole Cake Island.

So, to celebrate the return of One Piece anime, I decided to post her Egghead outfit 💚

Do not copy, retrace or use my art without my consent !

I second this notion, THEY NEED MORE CONTENT- >:3

(also, THIS, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS LMAO)

We need more Izou and Thatch content !!

I love them

Fun little heads up

Ok, please bear with me here for a few seconds- I won't be long, I'm going to try and be quick about this. So long story short, I'll be taking the next few weeks to try and clean up my account here. I didn't actually think this would become such a jumbled mess of things, but apparently it has, lol. And there's surprisingly a lot of you that have come across my account to read Appraise Love, so I have decided to do something a bit different than what I do for all of my other platforms (except Youtube, that's the only other one I've done something like this for-) So basically, here's the plan: I take all of my head canons, stories, writing works, etc. and put them on a dedicated account for JUST writing things, and then leave this as my art/cosplay account. I'm actually going to poll this as well because I don't honestly know what's more convenient for you guys and the way you find my writing. So I guess vote for now and I'll get back here once this is over to finish cleaning up my account :3

*ahem*

The monotones- The book of love

Bear Ghost- The Mario cliche

Bear Ghost- Peas and Love

Dion and the Belmonts- Teenager in love

These are songs that 110% remind me of Thatch and would definitely be something he'd listen to.

(I also have other songs that remind me of other WB pirates if you guys would like them as well óvò)

(On another note, DO YOU PEEPS KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE WILL WOOD AND BEAR GHOST?!)

I will never not find a meme opportunity

Keeping true to what I do best with my art, the first thing I've decided to draw after getting out of a rut I've been in was this beauty

It's a late art trend, I know. I originally saved this as something to draw with Bernice and Thatch (hence the lighter female outline where Marco is, I started it but never got back around and decided to restart with a different character, lol), buuuuttttt...I figured these two were far more fitting for it XD

....I have been misinformed

Today is actually Sabo's birthday, Thatch's is next week.

At least I remembered my dog's:')

Another day, another character I've failed to memorize their birthday until too late :')

...at least I remembered tomorrow is Thatch's birthday XD

Atmos

Happy Birthday

March 19

On a lighter note...

Behold, the progress I've made on Bernice and Haruta's lookup figures! :D Obviously, there's nothing new with Bernice, but Haruta one the other hand? Now HE'S gotten some progress made on him!

LOOK AT HIM AND ALL OF HIS TINY FURY!! Obviously I don't have the outfit roughed out quite yet. (But as I said in ym last post, it's a VERY slow boat going through my art at the moment, I'm trying to find the energy and motivation to draw again. Especially since I want to start making progress on Botanical AfterParty! sooner than later-) Anyways, enjoy the progress made! And if these turn out well, I'll probably do the rest of Whitebeards crew. (OH! OH! What if I also did a set of these for Mouthwashing as well!! No one really makes these. And who knows, maybe if I did them for both fandoms, Megahouse might actually see them and decide to make them! How cool would that be to have little lookup figures for Mouthwashing? :D Or even finally give Whitebeard's crew OFFICIAL MERCH!)

I have two moods

You can take this as a vent? As much as I wanna say that it isn't, it kind of is...if that makes sense- Basically, to sum up a lot of my absence from social media, apparently I have depression :D I didn't think that I did, buuuuttt I've gone to the doctor's over it, and a lot of the health problems are have basically tie into depression...so here we are now! Yes, I'm working on it. Yes, it's a lot. Unfortunately, I don't really feel comfortable talking about it/what's led me to this point (which is saying something since I have a therapist and feel uncomfortable opening up to even them about it-) Bottom line: I should, SHOULD, be back to my regular schedule soon...I hope- (and if I disappear again, then you guys know why XD)

Feelin' kinda cute, might kick teach's Ass later òvó

(The only ending that he should've gotten >:3)

More of me being a goober in my Fem! Thatch cosplay (Also, I did make the earrings myself! :D)

Sooo, I finally stopped being a wuss, and I actually decided to post my Thatch cosplay here. Please excuse how awkward I am on camera, it's actually been a couple of years since I've made reels/cosplay videos like this, so I have to get used to doing that again, lol.

Anyways, this was the fem!Thatch I teased a few weeks ago. I decided to post it NOW because I was really nervous about how people would like it. (Also, these are the first two reels I've made in normal time, I didn't have to speed them up? :D)

Oh, don't get me wrong. There's NO COSPLAYS for Whitebeard's whole crew. And at the moment, I only have ideas for the genderbend versions of each. Until I can actually get the things I need to do the actual dude versions, please be nice about these...please? óvò

I will redo this one, though, because: 1. It's Thatch, OF COURSE IM GONNA MAKE AS MUCH CONTENT FOR HIM, HE DESERVES MORE LOVE! And 2. I didn't realize the wig was as bad quality as it was, and not doing anything with it the two years I've had it apparently REALLY messed it up. So, I'll be getting a better quality wig for him at a later date! Until then, here's this!

(The hair was actually inspired a bit by the pinup girls hair styles. But because I do use this wig for other cosplays and most pinups are with shorter hair, I had to improvise a bit to be more adaptable to longer hair-)

Have I ever told you guys how strong my dog is? :D

No? Oh good, now's a perfect time!

Uh....basically, he headbutted me today after he found out we were having company (he gets excited and jumps on people/gets in their face, and today my grandpa was coming over-) and I have no idea what he did, but his head hit me in the side of the jaw and I ended up hearing something crack.

Don't worry, he's fine! He somehow ended up completely fine, but I'm pretty sure my jaw might be screwed up. It's not swollen or anything, but I swear it feels like it's falling off after the whole day has gone by-

...meh, I'm just gonna sleep on it and see how it goes! Moral of the story:

CORGIS ARE HELLA STRONG FOR ONLY BEING TWO FEET OFF THE GROUND-

This is him btw. His name is Astro >w<

STOP, MY HEART-

I've never actually stopped to think about this. Like, I knew about Stefan, but...IMAGINE WHAT HAPPENED WITH MARINEFORD-

I know with some dogs (like my own) can show loyalty to a huge group of people, but show just a little more to the person they see as their owner. And now all I can imagine is a happy Stefan waiting for Whitebeard to come back after Marineford, but he never does DX

WHAT HAPPENED TO WHITEBEARDS DOG???!

MarineFord spoilers

So if you didn’t know already (I had no clue..) Whitebeards mustache is removable. Like he can put it on and take it off. SO READ THIS REAL QUICK

WHITEBEARD HAS A DOG😭 a small ass dog at that! You know bro was probably terrified of hurting it. Imagine that big ass man with that tiny ass dog bro. Sitting on his big ass chair petting him. Imagine there being some kind of protocol whenever pirates/marines would try and board their ship and Whitebeard has one person he really trusts to get the little guy out of there and protect him at all costs during the fight. Imagine how pampered that tiny ass dog is. Bro probably had a vet just for him on the ship. Imagine his little corner with his bed and stuff, his own little room. I’m imagining one of those small, long white haired dogs. The drawing doesn’t give us much to go off of but that’s what I’m picturing in my head. I like the idea that if it is a long white hair dog that whitebeard has tried to get the groomers to give him the same mustache so they could twin. Also if whitebeard wasn’t the one that found/ got the dog and brought it on the ship then imagine one of his crew members finding it and bringing it to the ship, asking to keep it and Whitebeards just like “Fine but I’m not taking care of it!” As if he didn’t want it. Ya know how dads always do that with pets when you first get them then they fall in love with it. Then they are suddenly in love with the dog they “didn’t want”.

But that’s besides the point. What I’m worried about is, what happened to the dog after Whitebeard died???? Where is bro? Where was the dog during MarineFord? Was he storming the place too or was bro locked in a room on the ship??? Was he at the funeral?? IM LITERALLY GONNA CRY STOPPP. I need oda to write a book about Whitebeard and his dog. It will be the only book about a man and his dog I will ever read because I know one of them is probably gonna die in the end and I’m too scared. Someone please give me fanart of this dog. Write a story about bro or something I don’t care PLEASE I just need more about this little guy before I go insane

Just a little animation I made of Lee a year-ish or so ago. ( I kind of want to redo it now since the timing for it is off and doesn't move as smoothly as I want it to, lol-...plus, I need to stop drawing Lee crying, she's not a crybaby. She's just traumatized-)

One Piece ocs and their preferred hugs

Look it here! Here's another post that I'm putting up today! :D (I really do apologize for the lack of content from me on all of my platforms. I've recently been working on fixing things in my personal life that's been getting in the way of my posting schedule and only just today finally felt like posting again. So to make up for my absence, I'm posting art up on all of my platforms. Cara is only getting two since the third is actually a gif of Lee-)

Anyways, this post is also for my ocs. However, it's both of the pairings that I always post about here. And after seeing multiple things about the blushing memes people do with other characters, I same up with the idea to make a reference sheet for the types of hugs my ocs and their partners like to give/receive! I'll also apologize in advanced, I know that my handwriting isn't exactly the best, but I'll sum it up for each one. Basically, Heat and Lee give fairly normal hugs. Both are VERY awkward in the way of affection. Usually their hugs are short (shorter than they probably should be) and are only something they do when no one else is around. So they're very limited in those regards. Most of the time, there's no real initiative or reasoning for them. (Not to try and cheer the other up, calm them, keep them warm, etc.). It's usually whenever they're alone and one of them realizes they haven't in a while. Beyond that Heat nor Lee really need much to show they're together. They know that, and that's enough for them.

Bernice and Thatch, however, are VERY silly with their hugs. Most of the time Bernice does tend to be shy about them when around others, but Thatch usually does it around the people on the islands they stop at that try to hit on her. (He also does occasionally to try and annoy the other commanders, and most of the time it does work with Ace and Haruta. The others have learned that if they make a remark about keeping it going or something a bit more perverse, neither of the two will stay in the hug.) Thatch usually enjoys hugs from Bernice on the account of her devil fruit. Because she can turn her body into wool fluffing, she basically is like a human pillow. So of course hugging her is comforting. Bernice, however, is the unhinged of the two and enjoys these weird headlock hugs from him. She doesn't exactly know why herself, but to her they are a lot more comforting (and silly) and do a lot for when she's stressed or down.

(Also, yes. I drew Bernice's little curl as a heart here, that was on purpose >v< ) I also feel I need to point out their heights since I've never really posted them here, but their pairings are definitely odd. Lee's canon height in her info is 5'7 Heat is estimated at around 7'0 Bernice's canon height in her unreleased info is 5'9 Thatch was said to be about 6'2 in an sbs, but I'd say he's closer to 7'0/8'0. Only reason? Ace is about 6'2, Marco is about 6'8, and Thatch is usually drawn taller than the two of them. (Not including his pompadour-). However, he's shorter than Vista (Who is about Jinbe's height, and Jinbe is 9'11. Sooooo, yeah-)

A fun little draft I'm working on

So I saw someone do this for Thatch. And while I'd also LOVE to make an alternate version of Thatch for a lookup figure, I might honestly might make a separate character for a lookup figure concept as a whole to go with Bernice. I might make maybe Haruta or Izo (since in Bernice's canon info I'm working on, she does get along with them fairly well-) But yeah...For now, take the concept I made for Bernice! :D

...you better believe I'll be doing this for Lee and Heat as well because they're my favorite and first oc pairing-

Fun fact about Bernice and Thatch

This is a fun little fact that I wanted to share with you peeps here because I don't think I ever really did before. Sooo, allow me to go into detail about it now. I think that a lot of people don't understand why I themed Bernice's outfit the way I did. (Granted, I only draw her in the striped and dotted turtleneck, but she does have other long sleeves she wears. I just forget to actually draw them and default to her turtleneck, lol) So, allow me to enlighten you peeps a bit here! Looking at Thatch and Bernice, Obviously there's a lot different about them. Bernice has a Devil fruit, usually dresses fairly warm, tends to keep her hair messier, but withing reason, and has her outfit themed more around a darker purple and black color palette. (With a few splashes of either white or yellow depending on the outfits.) Something I think a lot of people fail to realize is just how cold it would get sailing all the time. You can argue that 'it wouldn't be cold' or that 'most everyone would be used to colder wind coming off the sea', but you have to think as well that something like that wouldn't be the same case for everyone. Especially if you're on different ships. Depending on how fast the wind is moving would depend on how fast the ship moves. Sooo, Bernice wears what she does due to actual weather and temperature reasons. Thatch is obviously on the opposite end of the scale. He wears his outfit due to his work on Whitebeard's crew, doesn't have a devil fruit (Thank you, Blackbeard, for that -_- ), keeps his clothes fairly clean despite his work in the kitchen, and tends to make his hair nice. His outfit is usually themed around mostly white, but he does have some yellow in it. I'm sure you can already see where this is going, but let me geek out for a moment here. Obviously black and white are opposites on a grey scale. So you could see that much with their outfits, yeah? Now here's one better for you: yellow and purple are complementary colors on the color wheel. For those of you that aren't really art savvy, basically complementary colors are colors that sit opposite of one another on the color wheel. (Red and green are one, orange and blue are another.) Now knowing that, and knowing just how their outfits are described, do you see where I'm going with this? In short, Bernice and Thatch are an opposites attract pairing, but on a deeper level. And don't worry, for those of you that think I only themed it around the uniform Thatch wears, I did not. I'm actually going to be working on a few pieces in the near future where a lot of their outfits are themed around this idea :3

UHHH, THE VIBES ARE JUST- *chef's kiss*

But the colors!!!! :0

Once again, here I am randomly appearing out of the abyss to give you all a heads up:

I'll be going through to try and clean my account up a bit since I post a bunch of random stuff (I'll also stop being a wuss and finally post my Fem! Thatch cosplay because I've sat on it for two weeks nervous no one would actually like it-)

Uh, things you need to know and why it might affect you!

-Appraise love will be out on hold for a bit. (DON'T BLAME ME, BLAME MOUTHWASHING FOR COMING ACROSS MY RECOMMENDED FEED ON YOUTUBE. THE FANDOM CURRENTLY HAS ME IN A CHOKEHOLD-) Outside of that, I'm also sorting a few things out irl, so I haven't really had much time to really write, or revise what I've written. (The next chapter's done, I just need to finish revising it to make longer-)

-my gaming content will also be put on a major hold. The gameplay recording I made for 'Do not take this car home' ended up getting messed up, so now I have to redo a whole new recording for it ;v; (which I'm not really mad about. Loved playing the first half of the game once, I'll love doing it again, AND actually tweak the audio problems I had the first time! :3)

-My cosplay content will also be put on a major hold. As of currently, I'm working on my Monet cosplay (One piece Monet, I feel I need to clarify that, lol-) and that is...very tedious to say the least-

-I am playing a lot more vr games as of lately. I feel I don't mention this a lot on any of my platforms, but I don't really have friends. I have one I play games with, and another that I made on the personality database a while ago. But in the way of making friends to actually DO stuff with/ other people to play games...yeah, that's about where the list ends XD

But beyond that, content will be slow for the next few days. Now, please excuse me while I disappear back into the cave I've made myself. ò3ó

This is a very low quality image (I apologize for that-)

Buuuttt, can you guess the cosplay I have planned out for either tonight or tomorrow? :D

I'll give you all a hint: it's a genderbend version (since I don't have things yet to do a proper male version, yet lol-)

I feel bad...I've been sitting here all day going 'huh...I wonder when Appraise Love is going to be updated'... How...tf did I forget that I'M THE ONE WRITING THE STORY?? Dunno, but I'm going to be working on it over the next couple of days since I somehow forgot, lol-

UHM, HELLO?!

I cannot BELIEVE the AUDACITY you peeps had today! NOT ONE OF YOU TOLD ME IT WAS HARUTA OR FUKABOSHI'S BIRTHDAYS?!

DO YOU KNOW THE KIND OF DAY I HAD?! DO YOU KNOW WHAT I COULD'VE DOODLED OR WROTE FOR THESE TWO, AND NOT ONE OF YOU THOUGHT TO EVEN MENTION IT? Ò0Ó

The amount of disappointment I have is unreal.

(Lol, no I'm joking about the whole being mad. But I did have a pretty rough day, so hearing this from on of the b-day accounts on IG actually made me happy! I'll have to do something for them.

Oh, oh! Before I forget, tomorrow is also Vista's, so you better mark it down to remember! >:3 Maybe I'll do some one shots or doodles. I dunno, it depends on how I feel tomorrow I guess, lol-)

Hey peeps!

So, I'm giving the small heads up here since I don't really have any other platforms on my phone ATM (aka, all of my other platforms signed me out, this is the only one signed in, lol-)

But for this week I won't be on social media much again. I'll try and get some more written on the story I've been working on, but with issues and concerns I have in my own life, I've been distracted from my work. However, I will be continuing to post regularly. (If it's any consolation, I didn't post on my gaming YouTube channel after promising that I would on Thursday/Friday. So there is that. And I didn't even post to Patreon tonight, either. So it's not just you guys not getting content, I promise!)

In the meantime, I'll cook up some more head canons for WB's crew since a lot of you peeps actually like them (somehow. Dunno how, but there's a lot of you that randomly appear out of the void to like them XD)

MY SOUL WITH THIS-

THIS IS SO GOOD, WHAT?!?! :0

GOSH THEY ARE FINALLY DON E

I hope you can tell them apart!!

In order: Ace, Thatch, Vista, Marco and Izou.

These men are so unnervingly handsome.

Izou, especially, captured mine heart aesthetically. He has the face of a siren and the body of a MAN. His hair is long, black and gorgeous. He's sophisticated, creative and intelligent. I want him (the version of him in my head).

Thatch is insanely handsome. I need to draw facial hair better because he's this sexy lumberjack with thick red hair the colour of chestnuts. His friendly personality catches you off-guard and then you look down and holy shoot he's more delicious than his food!

Vista is wow bro like he's a smouldering big guy with a big chest, big thighs and a defined waist. He's strong. He's fashionable. His hairy body intrigues me. Whenever he looks at you, he's always smiling knowingly like he knows you want him.

Do I need to say more about how Marco and Ace are? How much they mean to me? God, no, we do not need to hear that. W-we d-don't KYAAA

Corazon as a Corazon

Hey, my peeps! I'm posting back here again with an actual art piece this time. *gasp* Yes, and ACTUAL FINISHED ART PIECE! Not one of my normal little doodles, and not one of my base colors silly drawings, and ACTUAL attempted finished drawing. I can't really say that it's a finished drawing since it was actually a sketch that I did at the beginning of last year, but oh well XD Just a bit of context with this: Long story short, when I was posting art on my IG account, I actually put out a small ask box asking people for cursed ideas to draw. And while only one person had commented on it, my brother was actually the one to recommend this idea to me, so that's how 'Corazon as a Corazon' had came to be. Did I actually intend for this to be a Valentine's day post? No, no I did not. Did it end up becoming one? Yes, Yes it did. Why? Because, you can't tell me this man wasn't made for the holiday, plus it was too perfect of timing and an opportunity to NOT make the post for Valentine's day! Ok, I shall scurry back off into my cave for another eon while I try to find the next piece of art I'll be putting out next week, lol.

You can ignore this since this is mostly a note to myself, but I'll still write it to appease which of you heathens decide to be a rebel and read it anyways, lol.

~•^°^•~•^°^•~•^°^•~•^°^•~

The lack of cosplays for Whitebeard's commanders is DISGUSTING. You can find Marco and Ace (which are givens-) but you can't find one for Rakuyo? Or even Haruta or Curiel? I feel like them being the simplest designs, they'd at least have SOMETHING, but no. You can't find ANYTHING .

The most disappointing part? THERE'S. NO. THATCH. No genderbend, no original, no blue shirt, NOTHING. (It's a shame, I just so happen to have a white button up and white bell bottoms, so I guess I'll be doing a genderbend version to make him a pinup girly because SOMEONE HAS TO FIX THIS, AND IM WILLING TO BE TRIBUTE TO DO SO-)

Ok, I'm done...Bye! :D

I don't think I've shared the characters I am obsessed with drawing here, so I'll give you all fair warning now:

The characters that I find fun to draw are characters I'll probably draw....a lot, lol.

And on that extensive list is:

-Heat

-Thatch, Rakuyo, and pretty much any WBP member

-Coeazon (because he's best boi and was the first character that really got me doing art for the OP fandom óvò I've drawn Sabo and Sanji first, but I didn't really hammer art until I started drawing for Corazon! So he holds a special place with my art <3)

-Ivankov, somehow XD (And I don't mind it one bit, I'm here for the dramatic designs òwó)

-Lee and Bernice, obviously (they're my OP OCS, of course I draw them all the time!)

-All three ASL brothers, ironically enough. They're easy designs to do, and I love making memes of the three of them sharing a braincell, lol

I'm venturing out to other characters as well, but for the time being, these are the main ones. So while I try new art, please enjoy my Ivankov WIP from a meme template I'm making for the one piece oc peeps :3
