Ha! How could I forget. The Master perfecting his Clanger whistle while wearing the swankiest smoking jacket/kimono/loungewear as his “prison uniform”.

Love The Sea Devils! That electronic score too, wonderful.

Every scene together they have is just fire. Frenemies 4 lyfe

I was so delighted when 45ish years later we got Missy genuinely scandalised by the Doctor’s lack of regular engine maintenance. He probably doesn’t put a coaster down under his mug either.

Cannot beat a bit of Delgado. AIRC this is the one where he has to team up with the Brig and snipes about the TARDIS being an absolute state. Also, Pigbin Josh.

Yes, plenty of people would like to be absolved even as they tell themselves it wasn’t that bad really anyway (that “if” is doing a lot of work), and do absolutely zero reparative work. They can sit with the knowledge they harmed people, frankly. Might even do them good: hope springs eternal.

Yes, a lot of the stuff I’ve mentioned is available for Procreate, and Kyle Webster himself now works for them!

I still use Photoshop for my sins, and rely heavily on Kyle Webster’s brushes - the Finer than Fine inking brush and Opaque Watercolour are two favourite. And I heavily use a few custom brushes I’ve made. For texture I’m also fond of Dave Greco’s brushes and Maddy Bellwoar’s Ghibli brush set.

Digital all the way for me. I’m a messy penciller and this way (with good brushes!) I can have clean expressive inks and colour. Traditional is valid and gorgeous - this is definitely my skill issue.

Yes, I haven’t seen one of them so far dislike these tactics enough that they actually attempt to stop them (more than a limp “oh noooo … I wouldn’t do that” followed by ignoring it). That adage springs to mind that if you have one Nazi in a bar and everyone just lets them stay, you have a Nazi bar.

And you could add “I have great sympathy for their plight/suffering/miserable lives”. Always said as a justification for making the lives of the group in question harder, and always by a person who is horrified by the sight of a happy, thriving queer/trans person.

Lovely light and textures!

Thank you! And thank you for setting up this starter pack.

Hello! I’m a fantasy cartographer - only just setting up on BlueSky tho. Here’s a bit of recent work as my bona fides (the Barovia map was a huuuuge prop map for a private client’s home game!).

Yes, I nearly said that a huge proportion of times ppl use it are in response to you asking for an accessibility adjustment for yourself or child! Then there’s “they seem fine in class” about a kid who masks and then comes home and collapses into an exhausted puddle of overwhelm.

Wish I could personally slam dunk “high functioning” into the bin along with “on the spectrum” as a euphemism for autistic which implies the person is only a little bit autistic.

I love sg Prelogar, she is one of my heros but this is it right here. Having a trans person argue on a trans issue in front of the high court in a firm and steady voice is a moment I will remember the rest of my life

That makes me want the stories although fair enough if they’re not for social media!

Two paragraphs in and he’s using Rainbow Laces to complain about Muslims and ye olde reverse racism. Feels entirely possible that before the end he’s also going to get round to trans ppl and women who complain about sexual harassment.
