And what if, later, they adapt their signs to be mostly one-handed so that Echo can use their secret language too!! Maybe that’s why Wrecker can’t understand them in the show. Echo’s only been with them a couple months. They’re all probably still learning the updated version
It was Tech’s idea that the Batch should learn sign language. Partly as a way for them to communicate mid-combat if they couldn't use comms, partly so they could talk to each other on Kamino without other people overhearing.
Wrecker learnt bits of it, but he never got as fluent as the other three. Crosshair and Tech used to try and motivate him to memorise all the signs by having pointedly long conversations in sign and laughing to themselves like they're talking about something really interesting when in reality they're just arguing about cheese or something.
It's a mix of the standard galactic sign and their own signs that they came up with. It's useful in the field, for sure, but mostly so when Crosshair's arguing with the Kaminoans and Hunter's standing behind them frantically signing SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP before he gets himself decommissioned
Here it is!!! I really like how it turned out!!
I’m drawing a cool knife and I thought you might like a preview! It’s made of carved antler, so the blade connects seamlessly into the handle and the decorations tied to the pommel are snail shells and glass beads.
That is cool. I'd love to see the finished product.
This was mean! How am I supposed to do homework when I'm crying??
well that fucking hurts
As an artist, I take umbrage with this!! Crayons are so much fun to work with! They blend in a really different way because they’re wax-based and you can melt them to make drippy, wet textures!!
What we know as crayons actually got their start around the late 1400s. These were more similar to compressed charcoals and chalk pastels, though. Artists like DaVinci and Michaelangelo used them primarily in the sketching stage of paintings, and for DaVinci in his journals. In the 1800s the charcoal pigment was replaced with colors and the crayons started being able to be mass produced thanks to the Industrial Revolution, and that’s when they first started making their way into classrooms. But they were still primarily marketed towards artists. It’s really only in recent years that they’ve been excluded from the artist’s toolbox, for whatever reason.
They’re very good for us because they’re relatively cheap (if you’re an artist, you know how important this is to us XD) and they’re good for filling in large areas with color or texture. And for those of us who work on unusual canvases (leather, plastics, drywall) they’re very helpful because their wax and oil binders let them stick to weird surfaces pretty well. You’d probably actually appreciate them if you used ‘em, Tech! They don’t conduct electricity, so it’s be safe to write with on wires and they’re waterproof, so you can use them in wet environments like underwater or in a storm!
Do you like crayons?
Do your parents know that you're on the holonet, little one?
Ell hates getting wet but she loves the rain. Where she grew up near the desert coastlines on Savareen, it only rained a few times a year. She loved to go running in the runoff that filled the arroyo. Now, whenever the Temple gardens have a shower scheduled, you can be sure she’ll be there with an umbrella to splash in the puddles <333
I have fallen in love with @would-btw’s dukedom au over on the bird website. I wanted to see Simon feeling more comfortable during his pregnancy, safe and loved.
I had a ton of fun working on this, but don’t ever ask me to do a patterned fabric again XD
All the flowers on Simon’s dress have meanings, btw :)
Dunno what he’s lookin at, but I do enjoy a Crosshair who wants to be included even if he doesn’t care about würm
The Kiners made that one post about the Bad Batch playing cards and it's been living in my head rent-free since, so...
Details:
We're going to pretend that Tech and Wrecker don't have sharper lineart than the other two, because I don't know how to fix it without redoing the lines completely and I do NOT have the energy for that
Wrecker's winning! Crosshair is helping. Mostly.
I didn't know what cards look like in the GFFA, so I made them blue, because, well, everything else is.
Cross has scratches on his face because he's a little menace that gets himself into fights before Hunter can stop him
I want to squish Wrecker's cheeks
Tech is eyeballing Cross because they had an argument about whether something was in the rules (spoiler alert: it probably wasn't)
This took me about 15 hours, I'm going to go and sleep, enjoy

A place for me to share my art as I learn how to draw digitally! (Apparently it’s important to share your age on this website now. I’m uncomfortable about posting my exact age online, but I am mid-twenties to early thirties. Don’t come at me, my joints ache)
