Hey people, I was digging through my google drive artwork in search of a Braum tattoo reference I did for someone and I stumbled across this old piece. Probably the stupidest thing I ever went about making. The story behind it is one of "Oh god my fucking mouse hand!" and "Oh god why did I decide to do this?" This Gif was originally started by me shortly after the bard release, when i was wondering what his life was like. Off of that I grabbed two more champs that I liked who were effectively eternal beings and decided to make a Gif of it.

There is no piece of art I have done that I hate more than this one. I lost the original files after colouring the entire thing and only had access to some very low quality versions. Then I proceeded not to use a program to just put in the words, but to do them all by hand, and take way too many frames to do it. In the end this simple piece of art that I should have been able to animate in about 200 frames ended up being animated at over 20 frames a second. Which roughs out to almost 600 frames.

The sheer stupidity I displayed and issues I ran into while making this pisses me off to no end. Anyways I just figured that it wasn't doing any good sitting in my drive being ignored so I decided to toss it out to you guys.

Anyways may your lives be good ones and filled with beauty. Have a nice day ;P

Many people think eternal life would be Unicorns and rainbows but.. Have you ever thought of how these people whom are created immortal feel? You would have an unending lifespan an near indestructible body and thousands upon thousands of years to empower said body However by gaining that lifespan and body you would never die

Many people at this point would say OH THAT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE I COULD DO ANYTHING I WANT! but in reality you would grow attached to many things throughout your endless lifespan and you would live to see all of those things rot away before your very eyes You could take many lovers throughout your un-ending life and would see many lovers die throughout it you would see friends and family rot away Pets and children Everything would fade eventually into dark

Hell even long after "life" has faded you'll still be here Since you're eternal you'll never get to join them in the sweet release of death you'll wander our world for thousands of years long after life has faded and you'll witness the gradual destruction of our galaxy our world will slowly get closer and closer to the sun until its eventually sucked in "long after life has faded" which many say Once everyones good and gone you'll witness our planet be consumed by the flames of oblivion and since you're immortal.. Wouldn't you still be there? Eternally burning

Now then.. Think about how these "Characters" you're describing feel they've probably seen thousands of people die within their lifespans Immortality is more of a curse than a gift to them I can only imagine whats going on in some of these "Characters" minds ( Note not all forms of immortality offer an indestructible body so this may not apply to certain characters however those with unending lifespans WILL witness all of the above and live to see his world turn to ash as the sun consumes it or the world drifts too far away from the sun and all life comes to an end )
