Russel's appreciation post. He's so beautiful, I love his eyelashes. I think my favorite design of him is from phase 6, and in the actual phase. 🦍🫶
P.S.: I kinda wanted to find an excuse to use that meme with him, but it seems Jamie always imagined him as a beautiful fat black male even in the early sketches.

THANK YOU FOR THIS POST! I really have a lot to say about too many still frames from Steven Universe.
I searched a few of the ones I could remember and genuinely find meaningful for a reason. I'mma give some small explanations, but if someone wants a more elaborated answer, feel free to ask!
​
Opal
Opal is simply my favorite fusion. It's so nostalgic, the episode means a lot to me, one of my favorites for sure. Her design isn't just beautiful, but the meaning behind the fusion itself, the union between Amethyst and Pearl's complicated relationship to save that one boy they love the most. I choose specifically the frame when she laughs and tells Steven "All you wanna do, is see me turn into..." then, he replies with those iconic star-shaped pupils "...a giant woman!".
​
Steven & Pearl's hug
I can't even count how many times I cried with Pearl in this episode lol! This means a lot. Clearly, Steven doesn't know what to say, he's still a child, perhaps he doesn't even understand what Pearl's going through, perhaps he never completely understood Rose and Pearl's relationship. So, instead of trying to find the words that he, himself, hasn't even discovered yet, Steven hugs her, but genuinely. After all, they're both mourning a very important part of them (literally).
​
Pearl shapeshifting into Rose
I think everyone can agree that this episode is a work of art. But, this scene especially, when the big reveal happens, how Pink Diamond was really killed. How you see Rose crying, and then lifting her head up, just to see Pearl's prominent gemstone and blue eyes, and now it all makes sense. Also, it's the explanation of why she doesn't like shapeshifting!
​
Amethyst shapeshifting into rose
I just think she looks beautiful. Purple Rose, and that nose makes her very similar to Amethyst's pilot design! This episode is kinda dark, ngl, but I just think that she really looks beautiful with Rose's appearance.
​
"Then you really are better than her"
I love this episode so much, Bismuth's first appearance. But, when she fights Steven and surrenders to him, then just casually drops this amazing quote, it makes her last scene very, very powerful :'). The fact that she basically accepts that this little half-human boy is better than the intimidating leader that Bismuth herself had blindly followed literally her whole life, just to end up trapped in a bubble, twice.
​
Winter Forecast
I remember that, when I was a kid, this last scene with Steven and Connie watching the snowfall, really remembered me of me and my cousin. We often stayed up late at night playing, talking, doing silly kids stuff, laughing all the time at our own bad jokes and disturbing my mom who was already sleeping. Especially on Christmas, playing with our presents or just trying to stay awake until sunrise.
​
Rose's Fountain
Even when I was still a little kid, I found this scene very emotional: when Steven is underwater and glances at the fountain, just to see his mom's silhouette moving and trying to reach him :'), but when he takes his head out of the water, the fountain remains still, it never actually moved.
​
James Baxter animation
We all know that this scene was amazing and how great of an artist James is. But, I feel like this was genuinely the first time that, after a long time, we saw Steven laughing and loving himself again, after all he went through.
​
Pink Diamond's silhouette
This was just soooo epic, this is the closest thing we have from Rose/Pink and Steven being in the same room (asides from the cloud room, which has actually another of my favorite scenes), and just Pink existing in the present, with him. I agree that it would've been epic for Pink to actually regenerate and touch the ground, to make the smallest interaction, but I think that a very relevant part of her character, is that she isn't more than flashbacks and other gem's words, memories, nostalgia. We never get to really, really know her, and Steven genuinely has no idea of who his mom really is, and if he had an heroic image of her, it all crumbled down when her mysterious connection with Pink Diamond was revealed.

Sorry for the weird format, but I'm kinda new to reddit so I don't know if it's possible to do a repost and add images to it. 💔
Also, sorry for the misspellings, English isn't my first language! THANKS AGAIN
hellooo I love doing funny gifs/images or vids, normally to use as stickers on WhatsApp hehe. I just wanted to show some of the ones I've been making recently.
Hope you like them! Feel free to use them too!
