Hello 👋, I Hope You're Doing Well..

Epic art time!

Just like I am doing with Trollhunters, I'm going to do a lil rewrite/rework of the world for Epic. Plotlines and all kinds of stuff is going to change.

Anyways, not much to show, but I thought I'd share anyways.

Art below the cut.

First things first, my friend---who is also working on this au with me---didn't really like the helmets the Leafmen wear in the movie, so I just did a little redesign.

Not really needed and probably not going to stick, but it's Epic related, so it's included.

A random arch fae I sketched out.

I want to lean farther into the fantasy aspect of Epic, while still keeping it semi-grounded in the premise of life vs decay.

Solution? Dark fantasy with random other fantasy creatures sprinkled all around.

There's going to be nymphs (The flower people and the mimics of the story), Dryads (very few still around. They're saplings that faeries enchanted to come to life), and Naga (a lot of different reptiles and such). And of course Boggans and Leafmen/Jinn.

And finally, we have Dagda, Mandrake's head general and the heir to Wrathwood's throne!

Boggans are way more creepy and bug-looking in my redesigns so far. Dagda's mother is still a WIP but I'm pretty sure she's gonna be some type of spider Boggan. Dagda inherited her mandibles, and the extra eyes.

I didn't really manage to capture his canon personality very well in this headshot, but I like the outcome anyway. The skull needs a little bit of work, though. A little wonky looking.

Also, Dagda could totally rock the snakebites piercing.

That's all, hope you enjoyed 😁

i've been thinking, if claire is ~5'5"

and douxie is a head taller than her making him ~6'0"

then how fucking tall IS THIS MF MEANT TO BE????

HE’S BENDING DOWN!! YOU'RE TRYING TO TELL ME MERLIN IS OVER 6'5"??? MERLIN????

Help my family to get out and search for what is left of life. The war is devastating. Death is approaching every person and destruction is everywhere. We hope that there is hope before it is too late.

Donate to Save Gaza Family: Urgent Evacuation Fund, organized by MOHAMMED Hilles

Your support is a lifeline of hope. A few days ago, the area where my family… MOHAMMED Hilles needs your support for Save Gaza Family: Urge

Your support is a lifeline of hope. A few days ago, the area where my family's tents were was bombed, and the situation was very dangerous now. There is no water for thirst everywhere, and there is no food. Food is very expensive. If they want to eat, for example, a simple meal, they need a hundred euros, consisting of vegetables and simple things. If they want fruit, which is not available, the fruits they have not seen for months, and if they find their prices are exorbitant, they live now. I hope you support them and help them get out.

Please Help Me Find This Mysterious Song

Tumblr, I do not do this often, but please please can you help me with this? I know you are better than other websites who have all failed me so far... For many years I have been looking (alas, in vain) for a certain song. Very likely a novelty one, though I do not know – I have never caught its name nor the name of the singer. I heard it once or twice on a radio station which only aired retro songs, so it was probably from 1960–80s. Now this one song was sung from a first-person perspective – the singer (almost as desperate as I am) was a classical violinist who longed to be a rock n roll star, which is what he soulfully crooned in the refrain. It was a fun, bittersweet song and always reminded me of Kinks stylewise (though it is very likely not their song).

Nobody seems to know this song, no website or forum dedicated for searching for lost songs has ever helped me, whenever I type in the snippets of the lyrics I remember (for example, something like "the duke told the duchess that he thought that I had talent, the duchess winked at me and said Oh yes, it's quite apparent"), Google pretends it has never heard of it. But I know it exists (I have a witness who heard it with me) and I MUST find it. I will not have peace to die until I find this song. I will continue haunting this Earth as a mournful wraith unless I find it, which is a distressing notion.

Do you have any idea what it might be?

You have no excuse to be silent about the genocide in Palestine.

If you can’t reblog the posts about dead Palestinians, at least reblog posts about the history of Palestine.

At least reblog posts showing art made by Palestinians.

At least reblog posts that show fundraisers for Palestinians, e-sims that you can donate, and the arab.org website that helps you donate to Palestine for free.

At least reblog posts showing Zionist companies that we need to boycott.

That is the absolute least that we can do for Palestine.

The Palestinians are begging for us to use our voice. Some of them don’t even have access to internet, so their suffering goes unnoticed.

Please. Speak up for Palestine.

Mourn the dead, fight like hell for the living.

Free Palestine.

Adding on to the original post, another moment where Skræl is featured by the camera is when Claire enters the Shadow realm and he looks straight ahead before the camera cuts back to show the main three.

Something random I've noticed during my rewatch of Wizards:

There's quite a few cutaways that feature little scenes with Skræl.

At the battle of Killahead when Morgana appears, the scene cuts to Skræl for a split second before returning to the fight.

When the Arcane Order attacks Camelot in the first episode, during the little "introduction" to Bellroc and Skræl, the camera focuses on Skræl before returning to the attack.

In the final episode, when the Arcane Order discards Arthur's helmet, the camera focuses on Skræl before cutting away again.

There's probably more but these are the three I remember clearly.

If only Wizards had the same run-time as 3below 😭 We could have had so much more content and character development with another season

Imagine if Toby's favorite cat went missing and he just stormed down to Trollmarket like "WHICH ONE OF YOU FUCKERS DID IT!!??"
