Just remembered I never posted the end result. Here’s how the shirt came out [OC]

This is how my custom shirt came out. Sorry it’s a bit wrinkly, I had to wash it to test the paint and make sure nothing got smudged.

Anyhow. I love how it turned out. This was my first time painting actual human characters and light, so I’m veg proud of how they turned out. I’ve worn it out already and two people recognized it! And that made me super happy

Together at last! [all] (OP)

My custom painted camp shirts are finally together! I painted the CHB one first and then did the CJ one a few months later, and now they’re finally together. I’m going on vacation to Disney this summer and I plan to wear them, I wonder if anyone will recognize them, honestly I’d be shocked if someone recognized the Camp Jupiter one. But we’ll see

I love how they both came out and can’t wait to wear them

Drawing Lalaloopsy characters as humans. #1 Peanut Big Top sketch

Hi guys! So, I finally have free time, so I can work on some drawings I’ve been wanting to do. Which is to draw Lalaloopsy characters if they were actual humans. So obviously some skin tones and hair colors are gonna change.

So up first is Peanut Big Too. This is the sketch I’ve made of her. I really wanted to keep her general vibe but also change her outfit a little. She’s gonna have black hair but dyes it purple.

Okay people confession time. What’s a word you can no longer hear with a straight face because of fan fiction?

Let’s see some creative ones. We already know none of us can hear the names of Greek letters with a straight face anymore

Day 6 update. I finished the charters guys!! (OP)

Today I finished painting the character!

This was my first time painting human characters with lighting and everything, but I think it turned out great. And I think they look pretty accurate to the source imagine I had.

I don’t really like how Lois’s face came out, idk how to explain it, I just hate his face. But I can’t really fix it. I’m just focusing on the fact that I LOVE how his hat and coat came out, I’m so proud of it.

Yor was definitely the hardest one to paint. Her hair was pretty difficult to get right. But I also love how the rose in her headband came out, I’m proud of it.

Now to the ultimate decision! Shall I paint the rectangles? Idk, I do need to cover up the mistakes and smudges I made, so paining them in would solve that. But then idk if I’d paint a black boarder around the rectangles, I think maybe they’d look better without them. But I’m not super sure

Anybody have recommendations for fabric markers?

Hello.

Okay so, I really like painting custom shirts for myself. Sometimes from different IPs I like, or just some cute patterns or drawings. I usually do these using fabric paints, but I wanted to know if there are any fabric markers out there I could also use, for details or maybe smaller drawings that are harder to do with paint.

But I don’t know of any good brands or types of fabric markers, so I wanted to know if any of you have recommendations or tips. Also all the shirts I customize are all 100% cotton since those are the easier to use fabric paints on.

Thanks in advance for any help

Okay serious question for anyone more educated than I…..how do airing schedules work??!!

Okay enough is enough. I have been a fan of this show since 2016 when season 1 was airing and never in my life from that point all the way to today have I ever been a fan of a show with a more insane release schedule than miraculous.

From episodes being released completely out of order, even though from season 4 onward watching in order is pretty important. To episodes getting released all across the globe in different languages. To season finales coming out before all the episodes of a season having finished airing. To a varying degree in the animation quality from episode to episode. To now the season 6 finale allegedly no longer airing this month.

I seriously have to ask, how the hell do airing schedules work? Is all this on Zag?

I get Zag isn’t a huge studio or anything, but why do they send out episodes out of order? How does their animation pipe line work? They tell the animators to animate episode 15 before episode 4? I know they use other studios for their animation, but someone at Zag is the big boss no? Someone at Zag is giving instructions on how this operation is supposed to go. How the actual f-k have they not gotten their s-t together in over ten years!!!!

Like for seasons 1-3 it didn’t matter much, you could watch the episodes out of order and you’d be fine. But since then we’ve gotten a lot more plot and character development and a story that requires you to watch it in order to follow along and see what it’s building towards. Oh and the show gained a lot more traction and the show certainly makes a ton of money off merch, the fact it got a Netflix movie, and other things. So don’t tell me they don’t have the funds to produce the show.

Another thing. While the epic battles of past seasons and watching the beef between Disney Channel, Gloob, and others to see who would air episodes first….how the hell does that even happen?? Like, Zag is the one who makes episodes. So I’m not crazy for assuming that Zag is the one who hands over episodes to these channel so they can dub them and then air them. So…did Zag just eeny meeny miny moe who gets the next random episode they finish? Are these channels bringing Zag to get them out first? Who allows this to happen?

I’m so over this. It was a whatever at first, it was even kinda funny. But it’s not funny anymore. How could they reboot the entire show, give it a new animation style and everything. And yet….we’re still dealing with this almost 11 years down the line? It’s kinda sad that they’re so incompetent to fix this?

I don’t mind hiatus periods. I’m a fan of many indie shows, so Im used to and understand the need to wait a few months between batches of episodes. I wouldn’t mind having a small hiatus period in between batches of miraculous episodes, if there was some sort of consistent release scheduling and the episodes came out in order so I don’t have to look up where in the timeline a new episode is set in when they come out.

Thanks for reading my rant. This has been ten years in the making at this point, I’m so over it

Hypothetically, if Yuu found a way to go home…how do y’all think that would go?

Like if Yuu ever discovered some magical way that could possibly take them home, what do you think would happen?

Would Yuu take the chance to go back home? Or decide to stay?

How would all our friends react? I imagine more than a few of them would try to hold Yuu down will all their force to stop their friend from leaving.

But what do you all think?

Day 4 update on how the shirt is going (OP)

So here’s how the custom shirt is going! I’m almost done painting in Loid, his suit took forever and so much color mixing. I’m not 100% happy with the color that came out in the end, but it is what it is. But I’m excited to finish it and see how he’s gonna look once I get the outline done.

Painting a tote bag of eeyore

I had this tote bag lying around and I wanted to paint something on it, so I decided to paint one my mom’s favorite Disney characters on it.

Im going to Disney this summer, so hopefully I can get Eeyore to sign it for me when I wear it to the park

Update on my custom shirt! And asking for opinions

Okay so, after two days of work I finished painting Anya!! I just finished the tracing and am waiting for it to dry. I’m absolutely loving how this is looking, I wasn’t 100% confident in my abilities but I love how it came out

Anyway, I have a question. Do y’all think I should paint the rectangle around her? I drew them in because I needed an idea of spacing and height for the characters when I was printing out the inspo picture. So now I’m unsure.

Like maybe I should give it a black boarder and then paint the inside of it with a solid color? I think teal or a light aqua would contrast well with Anya. And then I could write her name on the empty space? But I’m not sure, so any ideas of suggestions are appreciated.

Also I’ve though about writing “the mom” “the dad” “the daughter” above the rectangles and then “the assassin” “the spy” “the telepath” under them

I finally finishes the shirt!! (OP)

After almost two months of solid work I have finally finished my Twisted Wonderland shirt 🥹

I finished the last two house logos that were still incomplete in the last update. I absolutely love how this came out, honestly better than I expected. I’m still shocked at how good the back turned out.

I’ve been painting shirts for years now but this one was definitely me pushing myself. This was the hardest and longest custom clothing project I’ve worked on but I love the results. Can’t wait to wear it when I go to Disney this summer, let’s see if someone recognizes it.

Day 1 of working on my custom SpyxFamily shirt!

I’ve decided I want to make a custom SpyxFamily tshrit!

Today I just drew in the characters! For anyone curious I traced in the images I wanted using carbon paper, it’s great for tracing images onto fabric.

This will be my first time paining something like this so I’m curious to see how it’s gonna go but I’m feeling optimistic.

Will update soon, wish me luck guys

I just saw a post someone made about my work

Guys, something amazing happened today..

Okay so, I was scrolling though Tumblr, as one does. Looking at posts with the hashtag from one of the non canon ships I ship and write fanfics about.

So I’m scrolling and I come across one partial post. It starts with someone mentioning a fan fic they’re currently reading and my mind goes “Wait, this sounds very similar to…” it was my fic! They said they like my fic and recommend it, and then wrote about how a scenario could go with the characters, basically a little spin on the fic I’m writing.

It was a very interesting idea. I may consider writing a sister fic to the original one when I’m done.

But the point is. This was the first time I randomly saw a post someone made and mentioned a story I wrote on ao3. I wasn’t even tagged or anything, I just found it randomly while scrolling thought posts with the shop hashtag. But it made me very happy 😁

Does Hexside actually have a logo or something? Cause I don’t remember seeing one in the show

This may come as a weird question. Does Hexside actually have like a school logo? I remember each of the tracks and covens have logos, but I don’t remember actually seeing the school logo.

I’m currently in my “making shirts from fandoms I’m in” phase. And I think a Hexside themed shirt would be cool, it would match well with my Night Raven College shirt, I could paint the school logo on the back and the logos for the different tracks on the front. Or vise versa. But I don’t remember the school having a logo, so Reddit am I tripping? Does it have one and I just completely missed it?

Progress on my TW shirt (OP)

It’s been a little over a month since I started this project. I really wanted a TW shirt, especially cause I want to wear it this summer when I go to Disney. I looked at some official shirts being sold but….I thought they were kinda ugly, so I simply had to make one myself.

So I’ve been working on this shirt for over a month 😅. The front is gonna have all the house logos and the back is the NRC logo. I painted the back first which took over a week and it’s probably the most challenging shirt design I’ve ever done.

So now I’m working on the logos. I’ve previously made a tote bag so this is my second time painting all the house logos though this time on a bigger scale. So this time around I was able to include a lot more detail. Octavinelle is still my favorite to paint, and Scarabia is the absolute worse! And now all I’m still missing is the Ignihyde and Diasomnia logos.

But I’m more scared for the outcome of when I have to wash this 🫣😭🥲. Wish me luck guys

I finished painting my custom Camp Jupiter shirt! It looks kinda wanky from this angel but I promise it’s not actually like that.

I wasn’t sure if I should write ‘New Rome’ underneath, but I decided not to cause then it’d match better with the Camp Half Blood shirt I made for myself. I love how it came out though and can’t wait to wear it, just gotta wash out my markings first

This is my full Lala collection. It took me almost an hour to set them up cause I had to get all the minis out of the bags I store them in, and I had to put them on my bed so they’d all fit in the photo.

I collected over 100 dolls in my childhood, then in the last two years since I found this community I bounty like 30 more 😅

My ultimate goal is to own one doll of every character who ever got a mini (I really hate having duplicates of the same character) and right now I think I’m only around 15-ish dolls away from that. So hopefully one day I’ll achieve that goal.

Oh and I have a large Scarlet but I don’t replay collect the big dolls. She gets a pass for being my first Lala ever
