My Good Omens anniversary

This week marks the anniversary of my first really bad drawing I did after watching season 2, and I decided to celebrate by redoing the same sketch page. 🥹

These two idiots helped me get out of a heavy artistic block, improve my technique and above all start using references (something I rarely did before)

This wonderful fandom is like a family and I'm really happy to be part of it, you helped me in a really sad time.

We are like alcoholics anonymous but with feelings 😂

I confess to you the reason why this story had such a great impact and was imprinted in my heart.

I had a best friend (since I was 13 now I'm 36). Our relationship was symbiotic, beautiful but painful, I had a codependency on him and we often got closer than just friendship, but we were never a couple (a bit like our sillies).

I had resigned myself to the fact that we would remain friends, but I would have at least wanted him to put me first like I always did with him. That hadn't happened in a long time. I didn't feel reciprocated and every time he didn't reply to a message or left me aside I felt bad.

So after yet another meanness I decided to cut ties and move on. He had become toxic to me. 😔

I had hoped he would apologize and clarify but he left it at that. This shows me that I was not important to him and that he can do without me.

This feeling of rejection and abandonment led me to draw Void and Delirium (which I hope to finish soon) because I felt very close to Crowley, even if, let's face it, unlike my friend Aziraphale loves Crowley and in the end they will be together. ♥️

Some people think that you shouldn't get lost in a world of fiction, but this isn't at all for me. It's a reality that helped me grow and feel better, I felt part of a group like I hadn't felt in a long time.

Thank you all and sorry for the outburst, then send me the bill for the therapy 😆🥰

I'm sorry you've gone through something like this too. I think each of us has a different sensitivity and when someone with strong feelings clashes with someone who takes them superficially, it ends up in a loop of suffering. I've been there for 20 years, I hope it took you less :)

Let me start with I’m glad you’re here making your beautiful drawings. I resonate with this several ways right now. A friend who was very important to me earlier this year pushed me away, little by little, as he pursued an obsessive love affair. We haven’t spoken in weeks s since I have up trying to stay connected. Last week things went very badly and now he is incarcerated. Very triggering story. A friend told me “good thing he was a spark in your life and not a wildfire.”

It’s so true 🥰

Thanks for sharing your story with us. I haven’t experienced such a story but I’m close to you and send you a big hug. I’m glad that this “world” helped you, as it helped me, for other reasons. We have to take the positive energy we need, from the things we like (it could be your own art or a fictional character), and if we also find a nice group like this, we are allowed to be happy and smile 😊
