Funniest Fucking Thing

This is the full page with the first two Hermit-A-Day doodles and some others. A little icewing from Wings of Fire and a GeminiTay, heavily inspired by the sketches of her that @iveoy did.

Hermit-A-Day May numero dos! The pesky bird himself!

Oh Grian you little chaos gremlin, you’re so goofy. Grian is my og Hermitcraft lad, I remember watching him way back before Evo even. Got all my building strats from him lmao.

I would’ve done the hair in a lighter colour but this is the only brown I have and my orange and yellow are highlighter coloured lol. I also added the little marks on the sweater to make it look knit and it turned out even better than I’d hoped! :D

If you see little scribbles at the top, no you don’t.

happy 3rd life anniversary to those who celebrate🏜️

OH MY GOD

A young SMP stands in its bedroom. It just so happens that today, the 13th of April, 2025, is its birthday. Though it was thirteen years ago that it was given life, it is only today that it will be given a name!

What will the name of this SMP be?

Hermit-A-Day May 6!! Mr Peace Love and Plants himself, Mumbo Jumbo!

I have never been good at drawing Mumbo. His moustache always messes me up, but after a whole page worth of sketches, I finally ended up with this. Had to include his greying hair and a little head sprout, hehe. I like to this that he works with red stone so much that it’s starting to tint his skin. Dusty patches of more red than pink. :)

In your Jewel redesign, you said that Wasp probably wouldn’t let her get away with full drag, but that does make me curious. What would a dragon in drag would look like?

you will not BELIEVE how much I've thought about this, both during and after designing her. I can answer your question and beyond!!

The (Drag) Queens of Pantala

In order to properly explore Pantalan drag, I first looked to the (cultural) definition of drag itself, as well as learning some brief history. With the first known preformance occurring in 1867 (Although not truly popularized until the 19th century,) Human Rights Campaign and other LGBTQ+ organizations describe drag as a preformance art form that uses costumes, makeup and other tools to illustrate exaggerated expressions of gender identity, intended to critique gender inequality or other social justice issues. Drag has traditionally been preformed/pioneered by members of the LGBTQ+ community, predominantly gay men and/or people of color.

With this in mind, Pantalan drag was most likely created and developed by Silkwings (especially in jewel hive) as a form of protest art. I imagine the movement was later popularized by hivewing audiences, becoming more palatable to the wider public after being endorsed by a privileged group as art movements often are. While there are a myriad of social justice issues Pantalan drag could have originally meant to critique, the loss of Silkwing rights and deforestation of Pantala were probably the two main driving topics.

Their Artistic Process

As for the actual production of drag costumes or makeup, Silkwings would have had to work with what was available to them - fruits, vegetables, basic dyes/craft materials and their own silk. They would construct their own jewelry using beads instead of gold, weave their garments, and grind mica with pigments and oil to make eyeshadow.

Leaves, roots and trees would be frequent design elements of early drag: with the eye-catching glamour of a dragon working to simultaneously distract detractors and seek out supporters. Heavy accessorizing and imagery of wealth would also be important to presenting Silkwings as equal to Hivewings, through metaphorical sense. The processes of creating Pantalan drag is what leads me to believe it would prosper best in jewel hive: outside of their relaxed rules and support of Silk/Hive equality, they would also have easiest access to craft materials, dyes and a lively art scene.. endorsed by Lady Jewel herself.

Just a few thoughts on drag. Thanks for asking this question! I was looking for a chance to spill and you gave it to me ( ´ ▽ ` ).｡ｏ♡

I’m being bullied by the chocolate pudding cup. The little pull tab thing broke off and I’m not sure if plastic utensil is strong enough to stab it.

Cherri Cherri Cherri!!!!

do you have anything to say about the resent outburst of rage over the lifers posting duck (and other bird) pictures?
