hmmmm

I have a pewterarm I'd like to use, but I have no Idea where she would be or what she would be doing, so if you need a character somewhere I could use her there.

it"s the order of the Ganchos

Then maybe I am

*puts on hat*

mad.

Firstly, if you ended up here and you haven't seen this animation, than you might as well watch it here (you can in a single sitting, it's pretty short) - just brace yourself for extreme quirkiness.

So now that I'm even more confused than before, does anyone have any ideas? Has anyone other than me even seen this animation? 

Perhaps evil is a strong term, but from the way the trailer is set up, it looks like Snyder is trying to make Superman at least appear more sinister than usual. A statue of Superman emblazoned with FALSE GOD, a group of soldiers bowing to him—these are things that directors from the Christopher Reeve era would have balked at, yet Snyder seems to be portraying them as the natural consequence of a powerful alien being. 

 

And honestly? I get it. And on one level, I like it. Part of what I loved about the Reckoners books was how Sanderson showed the terrifying consequences of a being as powerful as Superman who, unlike Superman, does see himself as a god and does​ want to rule. And like Kobold said earlier, I like the idea of examining the role of Superman in society. 

 

What I don't like is the way that most movies that decide to examine Superman's role almost always cast him in a grim and sinister light. Sure, there would be fallout from a being like Superman existing in our world, but why not examine the way he attempts to keep others from seeing him as a god and how others respond to that? I'd kill for a movie scene where Superman, desperate to be seen as a renegade do-gooder and not a benevolent deity, straps on an apron and volunteers in a soup kitchen before purposely tripping over his own feet on the way out. It is possible to examine the line between power and corruption in a hopeful way, but it looks to me like Snyder just wants to give us the same old grim powerful-man-becomes-avenging-deity stuff we've seen before.

I agree with this. The way I saw it was that people started making him into a God and things spiraled down from there.

Look at you, soaring through the air without a care... Like [a] goat

piloting a blimp

I've seen goats bleed.

Edit: Sorry for the double post, that was an accident...

Let it goat!

I have actually seen a video of this parody... It's marvelous

Cool!
Well, here they are. I worked on each over a few days except for when ballet got into the way. That's why I have so few.
Yeah, I know I thought I would end up drawing people... Nope.

The first is part of a larger drawing because I couldn't fit the rest. I did it after reading the Shadows of Self prologue, and I decided to try and picture a duel between two mistings in what the Scadrial Roughs actually look like (in the background there are a few badly drawn trees, giraffes, and lions in long grass. Since it was too large, I just showed my favorite part - which is a bit confusing because the dueler's opponent is seen in between his hand about to draw from a belt of vials.

The second one is me starting to draw pattern in shadesmar - It's obviously not finished.

The third is just an abstract doodle I had a lot of fun with, and it isn't finished either. The purple lines were inspired by the dragon curve fractal, which is quite fun to draw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdyociU35u8). Prismacolors are the best.

Nice, Twi! Those boots ones had me crying.

I just read Legion - that was fun.

Shadows of Self Prologue:

For some reason, I always imagined the cover as green. The purple made me do a double take.

Geh! I have been doing the sketches, but I'm having trouble getting pictures on. I get a repository as soon as I can.

Edit: How do you get to the url of an h drive file?

yeah, that makes sense

When you see a picture of Superman and think, "Hey, it's Steelheart!"

(this actually happened to me )

Just a random thought:

Couldn't he have purposely used his weakness to negate his powers so he wouldn't have to worry about using them and giving in to the rending? That could have solved a ton of problems, if I'm not misunderstanding something.

Jurassic Park is actually about fractals and chaos theory.

And dinosaurs might have had feathers.

hmmmmmerrrggghhh

Phantasmagorically, Lady of bizarre situations and awful dialogue.

I guess I'll give it a try.

hmmmm

Does this imply that you have to make something every day, or just post something every day?

This would be great for me, because I'm working on drawing humans but I haven't gotten around to doing much.

Woowwwwww! These are all amazing! I love all the little comics. Szeth and Wit have always been finicky characters to draw, and you did both really well.

I'm curious about your mental image of inquisitors.

into sticks that

holy cow.

"Meanwhile, Lopen and the other Herdazians were back at camp pumping some iron and getting a glorious sweat-sheen swole worked up. As Lopen counted his 18th one-armed pull-up, he couldn't help but sense something was amis. 'Hey cuz!' He yelled to one of his companions. 'I'm gettin the feeling that something ain't right with gon. He's up at the king's palace and I'm thinkin we should go check up on him.' As he dropped his muscular bod from the pull-up bar, his sense of foreboding grew suddenly. 'Cmon guys! No time to put our shirts back on, we gotta go pronto!' With that, the glistening troop of Herdazians rushed off. Barely panting, due to their incredibly conditioned physical conditions, the group neared the palace. They could hear shouts from within. 'I knew something was up' said Lopen. 'Onward!' With that, they stormed in to the castle and followed the sounds of a fray. Finally, they arrived at a terrible scene: a figure in flowing white garb with a shardblade was amidst a fight with Kaladin, Dalinar and Adolin. Lopen stood, frozen for a split second. Quickly, he began to sprint down the hall, he knew what to do. He gracefully bounded through the air with a mighty shout, each rippling muscle right beneath his glistening skin showing every sinew of muscle. 'This is Herdaz!!' He shouted as he threw a muscular leg at the assassin who was just about to swing his blade down on Dalinar. With a sickening crunching sound, the assassin in white screamed and flew backwards, thrown by the hulking physique of the one-armed stud. He plummeted out the odd hole that had been cut into the wall and was never sseen again. 'Lopen!' Said Kaladin in surprise. 'You're a hero!!' Said Dalinar. Dazed, he got to his feet. 'That, that was incredible' he said, obviously distracted by the troop of glistening, muscular Herdazians before him. 'No need to thank me gon' replied Lopen, 'just doing what a one-armed Herdazian can.'

anyway...

For comic relief: certainly when Hoid is randomly driving Adolin's carriage and several plot points converge

For coolness: when Shallan is discovering the cryptics lurking in her sketches

For abject awe: the 4:1 duel - ALL OF IT

ty!   Red Mages are the best (and undoubtedly the coolest looking).

By the way, I say REN-uh-rin, SHAH-lin, YAS-nuh and the other Js with J sounds, AH-doh-lin, Demoux and Renoux the French way intuitively because they look ostensibly French, but Kelsier and Vin the English way.

This is exactly how I pronounce all of these.
