dorian only thinks his portrait is beautiful because he sees it as a depiction of his fleeting youth and identity, but the truth is the portrait is actually a reflection of basil, the artist, who put too much of himself in it. it’s not dorian who is beautiful, but rather basil’s pure love for him, which in turn is a reflection of basil’s soul and true nature. by loving dorian, and embracing his love through art without shame, basil has created the most precious thing, even if it is fleeting. much like romance, all art is quite useless, but it touches the human spirit nonetheless, and that’s important

Almost there!
Uhh it's really hard for me to make progress with this, because there are quite a few things in my life that are trying to drag me down mentally. This comic thingy is constantly on my mind, and I am making progress with it... just unfortunately, incredibly slowly. It doesn't help either that I can't seem to draw two pages with the same level of quality, and I'm constantly dissatisfield with the result...

Some of my favourite DP panel redraws from insta!
People have been asking if I could post them here too and I thought it'd be nice.
I'll slowly post all my favourite stuff from there to here and then put the new ones as well :)
I was looking for any posts about the Outrage webcomic but I couldn't find any so here's my
Outrage appreciation post
Finally at egghead arc🔥🔥
Happy Valentines Day!
One Piece AU where Doffy and Rosi both Live, and not only that—they get to interact peacefully without worrying about the law or being on different sides:
(I just read a 200k fic tagged tragedy, okay—let me have this.)
In this fic, Doffy's not quite as bad—he is still a notorious pirate who is powerful and cruel, but it isn't to the point that the Marines go so far as to send Rosinante undercover to take him down from the inside, no.
In this fic, the DonQuixote brothers don't get to interact until Doflamingo is offered the Warlord position—strangely, or not so strangely—a lot sooner than he was in canon...
Could Rosi have something to do with this?
He absolutely did; He begged and pleaded and bartered with Sengoku so much...
They first meet when Doflamingo is brought in to officially accept his position as Warlord, and Rosinante nearly gets himself sautéed when he throws himself at Doffy if it were not for the fact that, one: slicing up a Marine Commander within moments of arriving would not do well for Doflamingo's goal of becoming a Warlord and gaining immunity, and two: moments before the Marine made contact, Doflamingo swore he heard his baby brother calling out his name—the voice was different, very obviously different, far deeper than little Rosi's ever was, and yet...
There was just something about it that rang true and familiar—in his chest, in his heart, in his soul—somehow he knew, could feel it in his bones, in every fiber of his being, that that was his little brother's voice, all grown up.
Doflamingo showed up alone, and thank god he did, thank god the only people around for this first meeting are Sengoku, Rosinante's adoptive father, and Tsuru, who was the one to escort Doflamingo in.
Thank god, because otherwise Doffy may have acted differently, put up a colder or more arrogant, more cruel front—but with just his baby brother and two soft-bellied Marines...
Doffy hugged back.

In this AU, Doffy and Rosi would be able to meet up whenever they want as technically-allies and neither of them would hesitate to abuse this.
Why are they like this??? How was he planking that hard? Why did Luffy carry him like a skateboard
