www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOmd... so this is two models that were invented recently, wanted to show you. Laura loves redoing classical marionettes so they have more natural movements, and Barnaby invented whole new system based on fingerpuppets. just stunning. I love puppeteering.

all her little puppet show

[ #art #umineko #uminekowhentheycry #beatrice #goldenwitchbeatrice ]

mostly-monochrome bust-up fanart of Beatrice from Umineko. she is looking down at the camera and smiling, fangs showing, her arms crossed in front of her with her palms toward the viewer. on her screen-left hand she has finger puppets of Kanon, Shannon, Jessica and George. on her screen-right hand, she has fingerpuppets of Eva, Krauss, Rudolf and Rosa.
the background is a reddish gradient with heavy film grain and chromatic aberration. the Epitaph is written in faded text, and she's flanked by crudely-drawn golden butterflies. the gold colour reflects on her hair and face, and in her eyes.

Yeah, I imagine someone sat down in front of Trump with some fingerpuppets and somehow got him to understand that even when Iran takes its foot off the hose, it's going to be a minute before tankers make the round trip and it gets through refineries, supply chains and pent-up demand.

That Old Broadbean

@thatoldbear.bsky.social

remember back when she was touted as the great rainbow flag hope, an icon of LGBTQ excellence in the Labor Party? Like "Here's someone whose ethnicity and personal life means she's definitely gonna bring change" and now it's like "wow, they're all tissue thin fingerpuppets"

Continuation 4-7. Art by @th3yr.bsky.social

Worship and belief is a powerful thing. The Naga Lords knew that. It's why their natural hypnotic abilities lent so well to powering incredible magics.

But Dravok is one of the oldest masters of such power. How do you think it feels? to have the natural submission towards another tugged from your very soul? etched in your DNA? Kobolds made for such ideal subjects to magic. As if their minds had a long forgotten groove woven into them. Waiting for the day to be sculpted like clay into what their rightful master sought.

Some Kobolds needed reminding. Others seemingly always knew. There were no dragons in this temple, so to Dravok, it was empty. Just like their minds. just like their spirits. The glow of his magic awoke an ancient ritual. If he was not in the presence of Dragons, he would pull their ancestry from their very soul.

It was as if they had forgotten they were His, because there was simply no room for that fact while they had names and goals and ideas that did not belong to him.

The doors to the temple are sealed, kobold. Cease the struggle. You were all but a shell to incubate your true purpose to the glory of Dravok.

and shells shatter when their work is done.

The Magic was subtle. Dravok wove into his worshippers a groove that laid dormant amongst all reptile kind. Dragons, Lizards, Kobolds, anyone that would give reverence to a being such as himself. If he was worshipped in sufficient capacity, his magic could pluck at their souls like marionette strings. bring them into himself. Restore his long dead soul to the land of the living as fingerpuppets to his glory. But such things must not be done without presentation. If they were to represent Dravok, they must be fashioned in his image.

An image their bodies waited for to enact, once his magic awoke again. Grow Kobold. fill out the meat to resemble the dragon you are meant to be.

Dravok has no tolerance for free thought or a lack of conformity.

Each resembled a carbon copy of Dravok's once glorious body. Huge. Strong. arrogant. Soon their mouths moved to match the rhetoric of their dormant Master. affirming to themselves. affirming to each other.

They chanted. they flexed. they took joy in their new huge forms. The last of their minds slotting into that perfect groove as if their very souls were machine cut for this moment. They did not think on it at all. merely repeated. slotted affirmations of Draconic glory into cyclical conversations till there was no groove between their sentiments. merged as one.
With a flash of purple, the Kobolds never existed. it was only Dravok's kin that used them to eventually erase all they were.

For a brilliant painting needs a canvas.

@lalalachesis.bsky.social

working up fingerpuppet designs, for a gods 'n' goddesses project. here are 3 different prototypes, now in custody of six-yr-old housemate. more detail = too many layers. the pink one (using up colors i dislike) will be the template. totally stumped on how to make a cronus with working gullet.
