ages ago i unfollowed everyone in the hopes i’d spend less time here so now i just pick random blogs and scroll through like they’re my dashboard. sry if this happens to u it’s nothing personal xoxo
Some people have been interested in how this was made - I am extremely bad at explaining but I’ll try to give a quick rundown!
First I draw the individual parts in a 2d art program, in this case procreate. I put an overlay texture that gives it some grittiness. As you can see I separated out the parts I planned to move a little bit, like the top and bottom jaw, eyes, wings, and body segments.
Each part of the texture is applied to a 2d plane through uv maps with the exception of the halo, which is 3d modeled.
The 2d planes are layered in a way that will create shadow when a light is added and avoid overlaps when rendered. This also really lends to the papercut aspect!
Animation for this particular piece is done through something called “shape keys” where blender will interpolate movement based on me slightly moving the individual parts.
I created several keys for different areas of motion. When all are combined it creates a nice effect. Some parts move smoother than others - this is due to me setting some keys to be “constant” instead of “bezier smoothed”.
(Oh also the halo is just rotated on an axis - 3d go brrrrr)
After rendering all the frames into a gif, I then threw it into a video editor to make the colors more contrasted and to add slight glitching and behold! Final product!
Hopefully that helps out some for people who want to try it. Or for people who are just curious!
Punk is whatever the state fucking hates so I’m sorry to announce to the functionally conservative but contemporary punk isn’t leather jackets and punk rock from the 2000s, it’s hyperfemininity, it’s transsexualism, it’s kinky leather harnesses, it’s polyamory, it’s Black female rappers, it’s reading books from the library, it’s pirating media, it’s sharing your Netflix and Prime and Spotify passwords, it’s patching up your thrifted clothes with cute embroidery until they’re in tatters, it’s “borrowing” groceries from corporations that make up inflation that doesn’t exist, it’s supporting small weird freaky artists on Etsy instead of buying the newest Official™️ boring low effort promotional image enamel pins, it’s drawing and writing the raunchiest most disgusting and freaky porn you could possibly fathom, it’s showing off your tits or top surgery scars in public, it’s cis women packing and cis men tucking, it’s dykefags and fagdykes and boylesbians and girlgays, it’s paying for OnlyFans of trans people fisting themselves, it’s making up new genders and sexualities and romantic orientations and editing whole new flags for them, it’s refusing to label yourself for the gratification of a government that wants to know under what misspelled drafty legislation they should legally kill you
Punk is being/supporting whatever the state currently fucking despises and wants to burn off the face of the earth, not whatever you think is Punk Aesthetic. If you wanna be punk just to look like you were born in the 80s instead of actually BEING PUNK by supporting the degenerates and the freaks and the sex workers and the BIPOC and the transsexuals and the faggots and the dykes, burn your fucking $800 corp bought leather jacket because you’re not Hobie Brown you’re just a fucking poser.
Punk is fighting the system beside the ones the system is fighting against, Punk isn’t a Pinterest moodboard.
We failed as a society when everyone stopped wearing headphones.
If you guys want my tinfoil hat theory I think the removal of aux ports was the obvious catalyst but the phone designers never added them back to new models because that along with the combination of unskippable ads and tiktok brainrot means advertising can constantly flood your senses. Especially when it use to be considered socially unacceptable to go anywhere without headphones or earbuds. Anytime you tell people to turn things down or off, especially in spaces where it’s inappropriate to play loud sounds and be disruptive, they act so offended as well. Like Bridget read a room this is a fucking hospital it’s not time for thirst traps of k-pop stars.
