This Morning I Woke Up And Felt Possessed By The Marineford Doffy / Moria Interaction Panel. I Think

Beautiful art AND new knowledge gained! Awesome!

Two sides of the same coin.

A group of flamingos is a flamboyance

A group of swans is a lamentation

I thought I'd try to use AI to unblur it and oh my god it's disgusting burn it before it lays eggs

i'd be embarassed to have my website's watermark on that, not gonna lie

It's actually a crime that they put Doflamingo out of focus here.

A CRIME.

Like, this is the best shot of Dressrosa Takeover Doffy where his cute short upward spikes are shown during the takeover on the front profile and it's a a fckn CRIME they put him out of focus. Like, they really drew Doffy this beautifully and then went "yeah we'll put him out of focus"

CRIME CRIME CRIME CRIME

I already have so little Takeover Dressrosa Doffy material as we speak, this fckn SUCKS 😭

I GET MORE MATERIAL OUT OF DRESSROSA TAKEOVER DOFFY'S REFERENCE SHEET THAN IN THE ANIME. WHAT THE HELL 😭😭😭

"I called you to discuss something. Can you guess?"

Me marrying you? Pls, sir, pls one night, one night is all I ask at this point omg what is happening to me, Eng North Blue Doffy is VULNERABLE I need to cuddle him and swathe him in blankets and make him tea and kiss his forehead and tuck him in and hold his big hand and shush him and tell him I'll kill anyone who tries to hurt him.

I WAS NOT READY FOR THIS.

"I wanted to welcome you, to the Donquixote Family officially. Congrats, kid."

ENG DUB NORTH BLUE DOFFY HOW DARE YOU BE SO SWEET CONGRATULATING KID LAW, HOW DARE YOU OMG WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING I WAS NOT WARNED, THEY NEEDED TO PUT A WARNING FOR THIS, LIKE

"English Dub Doflamingo will sound vulnerable and you run the risk of wanting to hug him, proceed with caution."

"Just looking at you I can tell you've been through hell and back." He genuinely sounds like he is sympathizing here, like his tone is like I know, kid, I know, I experienced the same shit AND I AM NOT FINE HAHAHA WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING

"You have that hate-filled glare in your eyes." EVEN WHEN HE SAYS THIS IT'S SORTA SOFT OMG WHAT IS HAPPENING I AM NOT READY FOR THIS WHAT THE FUCK.

"I think you'll have a lot to offer our family." is speak for "You're my kid now." AND I AM MELTING 😭 Get adopted, Law. Get loved, you little angry boy. Doffy's your dad now.

I NEED TO CHEW ON PAPER OR THE BARS OF MY CAGE WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING OMG ENG DUB NORTH BLUE DOFFY OMG 🥹🥹🥹

Eng Dub Kid Law is somehow breaking my heart even more "Whatever. I've got three years. And then I'm gonna die. The end. Done."

....

... 😭😭😭😭😭😭 ENG DUB LAW COME HERE I WILL LOVE YOU, GET LOVED YOU LITTLE SAD BOY WE'LL FIND YOU A CURE BABY BOY AAAAAA 😭😭

Doffy: Maybe. Depends on your luck.

"Allow me to explain." ENG DUB DOFFY AND HIS MANNERS, EXCUSE ME SIR, YOU CAN EXPLAIN ME THE FCKN CAR ENGINE AND I'M ALL EARS WHEN YOU'RE CHIVALROUS LIKE THAT.

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON.

Which of the Doffy fans got hired to write the English script, I see you, you bastards, and I love you.

"We're what you call experts in the black market and one of our fields is Devil Fruits. Their powers are vast, sometimes beyond human comprehension. Meaning there could be a Devil Fruit that could cure your condition. " He's explaining it so calmly and he sounds like a DAD. DAD DOFFY IS REAL, DADMINGO IS CANON AND IT'S ENG DUB NORTH BLUE DOFFY I AM NOT FINE -

AAAAAAAAAA

ALSO, ALSO. THE FACT ENG DOFFY SAYS "condition" instead of "disease/illness" like it's sth temporary for Law, just an obstacle they gotta get through, and he could have called it a disease like Buffalo did but he DOESN'T, l...

It's fine. I'm not crying. I'm fine.

DADMINGO IS CANON. ENG NORTH BLUE DOFFY MADE DADMINGO CANON.

I'm about to cry.

"So what? You have three years left. Who knows how many Devil Fruits we'll find in that time." Eng Doflamingo canonically was enthusiastic and made sure to be enthusiastic to soothe Law and comfort him by saying those words, he was literally like "Yeah, so what? We'll find it!" I'M DONE. I'M DONE. IT'S OVER FOR ME. ENG NORTH BLUE DOFFY, YOU CAN HAVE ME. YOU CAN HAVE ME. I won't fight. How can I?

HOW CAN I?

I... I need to... I need to write another North Blue Doffy fic but Eng North Blue Doffy in mind. He's still evil but he CARES. HE CARES. ENG NORTH BLUE DOFFY CARES.

OH, LORD. OH, LORD. ENG NORTH BLUE DOFFY, MY LOVE.

"And one of them just might have a life-altering solution for you." He says SOLUTION. SOLUTION. Once more, Eng North Blue Doffy treats Law's disease as a problem to solve, not as an incurable disease. Oh, he is a dad. Dadmingo is canon. Dadmingo is CANON.

"For my new year's resolution, I'd like to stop killing my family! Cheers!"

Version with lineart:

Reference: (taken from @physics-of-one-piece 's amazing provision of North Blue Doflamingo scenes. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!! They're a total life saver for being obsessed with this silly flamingo psycho.)

and finally, a little sneak peak from an AMV that's so big that it'll take me another few months to finish!

Multiple languages writing challenge!

Writing challenge:

Write in each language you speak, even if only barely. Stop once you don’t know how to say the next part anymore and don't edit anything!

Japanese:

Trafalgar Law doko desu ka? Yasashi to kakoii isha desu. Watashi wa akai koto sorera desu. [STOP]

(I know some Hiragana but I have no idea where to get those letters!)

French:

Bien, c’est trop difficile. [STOP]

Spanish:

Ahora vamos a ensenarlo otra vez. Me gustaría muchísimo escribir alguna historia en Espanol pero no sé si alguna person va a entender lo que escribe. No es tan facil para mi pero me gusta mucho practicar, con mis amigos en los livestreams de Twitch también. Tal vez sería una buena idea escribir algo de los hermanos Donquixote en espanol con su proximidad a Espana con su reino de Dressrosa. Me gustaría mucho el toro en esos [STOP] (I don’t know how to say “colosseum fights” ^^ )

Italiano:

Io lavoro a un ufficio en Lugano. Vorrei andare a la Arena di Verona [STOP] (I was going to write “otra vez”… woops :D )

English:

Well, this feels somewhat redundant. Ain’t no way I’ll lack any words in my native language, right? Spewing big words right now just for me to fall on my face in a few sentences, I’m calling it. Either way this English is far too colloquial in comparison to my texts for the other languages. I should adopt a far more refined writing style and write a little more like a posh lady. Should I even keep going? Like if we look at the chapters to my fanfictions over on AO3 and my twitch livestreams I do think I have a talent for never shutting the fuck up. Then again I do study philosophy, so I guess I’m just well-suited to my own field of study. Oh yeah, I guess considering that this is written English and stuff I shouldn’t abbreviate apostrophes and stuff. Oh well, too bad. Deal with it! English really is the easiest for me to write in. I’m somewhat dreading having to do German next. I always feel like the German I write is [STOP]

( Hah! I couldn’t think of a suitable word for “influenced by” :D )

German:

Okay, dann versuche ich das doch mal. Ich habe bereits angefangen eine Geschichte in Deutsch zu schreiben, allerdings kann ich jetzt nicht wirklich sagen ob die besonders gut geworden ist oder nicht. Als ich versucht habe, sie meiner Familie zu schicken, kamen nur Rückmeldungen von wegen die Datei wäre ein Virus und dass sie das dann nicht lesen wollten. Auch toll. Da fühle ich mich seither auch irgendwie ein bisschen blöd. Ist ja nicht so dass sie es mutwillig nicht gelesen haben, aber irgendwie fühle ich mich damit ein wenig deprimiert und will ihnen die Geschichte jetzt gar nicht nochmal schicken. Kommt ja eh irgendwie immer negatives Feedback zurück, das brauche ich jetzt auch nicht wirklich. Wow, also irgendwie klappt das ja richtig gut im Deutschen! Gut, so Anglizismen wie „feedback“ kann ich jetzt nicht ganz vermeiden, aber das hört sich ja auch einfach blöd an wenn ich das jetzt auf Gedeih und Verderb ins Deutsche reinpresse. Benutzt man diese Redewendung so? Keine Idee. [STOP]

Well, „keine Idee“ is a literal translation of “no idea” so that’s definitely not German, stopping myself right there.

I look forward to continuing my language studies and revisiting this challenge in the future!

Anyone who wants to is encouraged to join this challenge, whether you’re a writer or not, that doesn’t matter at all.

This is all about practise and testing yourself! ^-^

Very sloppy Penguin made out of paper leftovers! I have been wanting to make something about Penguin for a long while now, but I have absolutely no spatial awareness.

I think there is a Penguin figurine out there but I got no money so... 'twill serve.

Law's reaction to a comment on Cook-ya's Self-Indulgence (NSFW).

https://archiveofourown.org/works/56269684/chapters/142955047

Thank you so much for commenting! I might turn some more of your guys' kind comments into little art reactions when the opportunity presents itself and I don't need ref sheets for my OCs (still procrastinating on those HARD!)

I LOVE doing half-head shots.

This one's a little more than half the face, but I'm happy to go with the flow.

I love doing these charcoal sketches so much as well!! Colours scare me due to my own lack of skill.

Extra:

Tried playing around with shadows a little without much of a goal in mind

A big appreciation post w/ art recommendations!

In the order of who I digitalized my fanart of first. I'll keep updating this as I continue working on them!

No. 1: @gokuya_59 !

Their blob drawings and animations bring me so much joy, you have no idea. They're incredibly kind and polite as well!

No. 2: @dissvicious !

Their comics are funnier than they have any right to be and I'm so glad to be fed my weekly dose of Kid Pirates happiness.

Thank you for always being so kind and awesome as well!!

No. 3: @luna_oriX !

They make really cute Marco birb drawings with plenty of positive messages! :D

No. 4: @d_tuqui ! @tuquidflamingo

One of my absolute personal favourites when it comes to drawing Doflamingo, they're incredibly talented and have a very unique style that really adds realism to their drawings! I always geek out just a little a lot when I see them post, and I find myself continously returning to their drawings over and over just to marvel at them. They're also an incredibly fun and kind person and they're my go-to source for finding new Doffy pictures. Rock on!!

I tried to pay homage to their style with my drawing, but failed. I hope to fix this within the digital rendition in the future!

Oh god I'm so glad I digitalized this! It actually looks like Doflamingo in the digital rendition, even if he's still got a few issues like having a rather filled out face with intense hollow cheekbones and a mouth that's just... not that. It does not look like a mouth.

(alternate version with scraggly pencil strokes. Ehhhh. Depends on personal preference, I guess!)

No. 5: @CoffeeTimeWorks !

Their kindness just keeps on making me come back to them over and over. They're incredible supportive and they've made me care for Penguin and appreciate him so much more! Their sketches of the silly flightless bird are incredibly clean (how do you do it?!) and a total pleasure to look at.

No. 6: @wani13go !

They make such high quality Crocodile and Doflamingo drawings, and I'll forever be in awe of the speed at which they work. Wow! They're also very kind, the google translator lets us communicate even through the language barriers! :D

I failed the anatomy on this drawing quite a bit, as it was supposed to be a drunk Doffy leaning on Wani. All good things take practise!

No. 7: @Putako_pigpet !

Another japanese artist, and an incredibly kind one yet again! As they're learning English while I'm learning Japanese we're trying our best to make sure that we understand one another, haha.

They make really cute drawings of "Kikokutan", the personification of Law's sword!

No. 8: @RottenBuggy !

This artist makes incredibly clean drawings of AU versions of Shanks and Buggy, and they've started drawing THE most adorable pet Buggy you've ever seen. And don't even get me started on how cool their cosplays look! They're also very kind and forthcoming, I'm glad I found them!! :D

No. 9: @shiibeex

Another one of those godly Doflamingo artists! They absolutely manage to capture the freaky tall vibes of Doflamingo, and they absolutely excel at drawing stunningly gorgeous chiselled bodies. The colours and shading they use are nothing short of breathtaking!

They're also very kind and uplifting! I'm glad I found them.

No. 10: @rPwjdwjdqh37

They draw quite the variety of characters and their shading / colouring skills are on a whole other level! They're also really kind! ^^

No. 11: @YKM_______

Now I'm not exaggerating (much) when I say that they are my personal messias. Their art really hits the spot for me, the colours they use are super vibrant and the characters look about ready to hop out of the screen.

They draw a lot of KidxLaw and Onigiri, and I love them all the more for it. They've drawn them in so many different situations, and I just about drop everything when I see them post. They're also very very kind! I've interacted with them quite a few times, and they're super supportive and happy to share the KidLaw love :D

No. 12: @creepyslimy

Another one of the Doflamingo greats. They have this uncanny talent to draw Doflamingo in such an attractive way that you start to question everything you thought you knew about yourself. They're just that good!

They're very very kind and friendly, and I'm very glad I've found them online. Their anatomy is on point and you can practically feel the Doffy love radiating from your screen.

No. 14: @koyatawanko

Another japanese artist. They make really, and I mean REALLY cute drawings of a small kitty version of Law, as well as ocassionally other chibis to e.g. Luffy and Kidd as well. It's so much fun watching their characters' journeys, and they're also very kind!

No. 15: @saracrossing02!!

They're an incredibly talented pixel-animation artist, and thankfully they make a lot of Doffy animations, because those look absolutely stunning! Their takes on all of the other One Piece characters are worth checking out as well, and they make super cute DoffyKitty animations! They've been nothing but kind in my contact with them and I really appreciate all of the positivity going around ^-^

I drew something for their strawpage, hence the drawing is so different for them.

No. 16: @mailboxxi_

They make really fun drawings of a variety of characters and they have some really "stop-and-stare" kind of pieces that are absolutely gorgeous to look at! I love the type of colours they use, they're very pleasant to look at.

Another strawpage one!

Thank you so much for reading this! I wanted to give some love to all of these artists and perhaps make them known to a few more people. If you're looking to commission somebody, maybe check out the ones among them that take commissions!! Have a lovely day!
