I’m not sure how well these will load, as this is my first time posting pictures on tumblr, so here’s hoping tumblr doesn’t crunch the quality! If it does, maybe I could try to repost? Idk.
This is a lyric comic using the song “This is love” by Air Traffic Controller. The characters come from the Vargas AU made by @zarla-s, and it is absolutely fantastic! If you want to know more about the AU or the story it is based on, zarla explains it pretty well, so check out their stuff!
I tend to ramble, so I’m going to put the comic and the rest of my spiel under a read more, for the sake of not making a huge post that’s annoying to scroll past. XD
For the sake of not reposting the chorus multiple times, I put it and the bridge together at the end, but the rest is in order. If anyone is curious about my design choices, feel free to ask. If anyone wants to redraw this better, also feel free! I know it is super messy and amateur-ish, but I was inspired to make this after I saw Zarla’s post mentioning the idea!
This took quite a while to make, and I actually intended to post this yesterday, but I think the day after Christmas is probably close enough. (,^~^)
Small note, I’m sure someone will probably notice similarities between some of my art and ones zarla posted. It’s probably most noticeable with the angel, tbh. But yeah, that was kinda on purpose? I don’t draw much, even though I enjoy it, so I’m not great at things like perspective and proportions. So, I used zarlas art as a reference for poses, trying to get close-ish to the original art without outright tracing. Then once I got more comfortable drawing the characters, I branched out more, like with the dancing scene. (^w^)
Any text in light grey/white is Edgar singing, dark grey is Scri, red is Nny, black is Nny and Scriabin, and for one scene the orange to red gradient is the waste-lock parasite speaking. I hope I did alright and kept it all mostly in character!
(Also, may I suggest “Mr. Fear” by siames as being sung to Edgar by Scriabin? It just feels like it fits.)
(I own nothing but my own drawings, the Vargas AU and fic are Zarlas, and the original story is from “Johnny the Homicidal Maniac” by Jhonen Vasquez.)
ages ago my friend and i were trying to dress up our acnh characters as vargas characters and i need to share the results theyre so funny
these are so old btw
in order its edgar, scriabin, devi, and jake
NNY IS AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE BUT I LOST HIS SCREENSHOT
i cant get over jakes face its making me scream laugh, and the fact that hes at brewsters paralleling the bar fic is so absurd
legally obligated to tag @disposal-blueeee in a post involving jake, the hat man will Get me otherwise
I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS I LOVE THISSS WAHHHHH "leave your monochrome fetish out of it" HJNDAJHFBNAJ I LOVE HIM
Hello hello! Gosh, time moves so quickly. For requestober I'd like to request Edgar and Scriabin bickering about which wallpaper to get if they ever managed to move into a new place, I'm in the middle of moving myself and it's been very hectic haha. Just something silly! Hope you're doing well :].
Day 15 - At least pick a nice green!
the entire vargas fandom (and we all know each other too)
VARGAS NEEDS MORE ATTENTION AUGH WHY COULDNT JTHM BEEN MORE POPULAR AND THE PEOPLE WHO LIKED THAT FANDOM READ MORE FANFICTION
tho strangely i feel like most people who love vargas had to read the jthm comic AFTER vargas (or im just projecting my own experience)
@zarla-s drives our little bus and keeps having to tell us to quiet down bc we start scream singing back there
I CALL THE SEAT NEXT TO @disposal-blueeee (we are looking at pictures of jakes abs in the back seat)
THIS IS ACTUALLY SO SICK SDJKFNSJDHFJSDFB yesyesyesyesyesyes
VARGASTOBER - day 6 : Fear
Vargas made by @zarla-s
Vargastober made by: @disposal-blueeee
the ghost of the wingsssssss ughhh <3
legally obligated to do this
(art by @zarla-s, stolen from her dev art)
jake ABSOLUTELY smokes weed, theres no way he doesnt
i feel like with how sensitive scriabin's vessel is that he would be uniquely fked up by weed, like he would probably sink into the couch and go non verbal for at least 45 minutes
i cant decide if edgar would be paranoid and panic attack-ey or if he would finally calm down, honestly with jake involved he might finally calm down
