Snufkin-Melody Of Moominvalley Is Coming Out?? SOON??? March 7th!! So Excited!!

✨️Presenting Angelo✨️

Very happy with how he turned out! I took a few artistic liberties for funsies, but it doesn't make his design less good. His og is SUPER good and kudos to the character designers for it.

Apparently, from his bio in the game, I believe it's implied that he didn't ALWAYS look like this. In fact, he might've just been regular ol' cupid! How'd he turn into this, then? 🤔

Well, to make a long story short. In the Swamp of Love Menu song (the one with lyrics). There are multiple lines referring to how the singer "...fell down from the sky above..." and this is "...where they want to be...". They also sing about how they were "...blind and now could see...". I think this might be referring to Angelo in some way. Angelo's name doesn't seem to have anything to do with mosquitoes anyways for I think it's definitely a nod to angels. Maybe as some sort of rebellion, Angelo chose to give up his role as Cupid and become this. I say he probably did it to separate himself from his past.

Just something I thought, though. What do you guys think?

that one autistic friend the moment you mention their hyperfixation

drew this silly thing and now im almost crying because this feels like theyre waving goodbye to me and im letting my childhood go because im an adult now and ill never relive those blissfull years again

This broke my heart😭

its not even close to fall yet but i just started getting into moomin and their friendship has me deceased

they kidnapped lawrie

Greetings everyone. Have some Snufmin today, and don’t forget to have a great one🤙

i couldn’t resist the pull of a new indie animated cartoon, life is hard and i am but a weak soul

✨Ramshackle✨ by Zeddyzi -> why it’s amazing and why you should watch it :D

she’s a mood fr

No.1: Vinnie is usually the first to panic

while none of trio are 'in charge' -nor should they be- Vinnie does take the lead more often than Skipp or Stone do {these two also tend to look at her before taking action, which is actually adorable} so it's pretty cool to see she's not oblivious to dangerous situations like her archetype tends to lean into -> also Stone's totally contemplating breaking the window to get away from the pageant zombies

No.2: Stone is super protective, despite acting like he's not

but he does it in a way that doesn’t come across as thinking the other two are incapable, it’s more like: you totally could’ve dealt with that, but im right here so you don’t have to

No.3: Skipp isn’t helpless, nor is he treated as such

this is really awesome bc trios typically have that one character that’s really bright and bubbly but that’s also often infantilised by both their peers and the fandom -> Vinnie and Stone are totally confident in his feral capabilities though, and apart from briefly scolding him when it was necessary- they don’t treat Skipp like a child {which is an extremely refreshing change of pace}

No.4: ✨FOUND FAMILY✨

you got the black cat, doberman, and orange cat all in one with these silly guys! + stone's small smile when they fist bump, my heart!

No.5: The black cat is a softie

surprising absolutely no one, Stone has a hard time saying no to his family. that's not to say he can't express a boundary, like how he feels about physical touch, but he does let Vinnie and Skipp cling to him for brief intervals -> he also is already accepting that Maggot's going to be a fixture from as soon as the other two are leaving the alley way

all in all, this pilot does a mind-blowing job of portraying archetypes in a new and refreshing way that doesn't feel forced -> the animation style is beautiful, the characters are multifaceted and complex and it walks the line between silly and badass perfectly

definitely go watch the pilot on youtube!

and if you enjoyed this, let me know if there are other things you want me to analyze or give my thoughts on :D
