“I’ll leave it at flat colors”, I say as I begin detailing the pores on a character’s nose.
“It’ll just be a quick little picture”, I continue, painting in 30.000 individual hairs on the character’s body.
“It’ll take an hour tops,” I whisper. What date is it? How long have I been working on this piece? I can’t recall the last time I saw the sun. I’m no longer sure where my ass ends and the chair begins.
I spend the next three hours moving an eye back and forth by a single pixel.
who remembers The Discourse when 4chan tried to raid tumblr with porn and gore and gave up when they encountered homestucks because everything in the tag was already fanart of porn and gore
okay let me tell you youngins a story back in the days of 2014 homestuck fandom
so this was around july,2014, when 4chan decided “hey, lets troll homestuck and post gore/porn in the tag, bash their ships, bash their fantrolls, and draw the mayor dead”
4chan fucking lost their minds because they couldnt upset us no matter how hard they tried, and SO many 4chan members got pissed, so they raided ALL of tumblr instead, rather then just homestuck.
tldr: 4chan tried to troll homestuck fandom, homestuck fandom too weird, 4chan babies got pissed off and raided all of tumblr instead. this is still so fucking funny to me 2 years later
