Watching the latest Asohka episode with kiddo. The bad guys really enjoy looking over the landscape and scenery forebodingly.
@Kurtroedeger: As one does.
Do what you love, I guess, but lots of time just chewing the scenery looking ominous.
Maybe I need to up my menacing contemplation pose if I really want to reach my goals of world dominance. Is this the missing factor in my plans. Not enough time being all dark and evil.
@Kurtroedeger: The key is the poses, especially the forebodey and the menacing ones. Also, include all variations of each. General poses/looks are good from far away (long shots), but you've got to kick up the nuance for up-close. (Many do not understand this, and so their world domination schemes fall short and/or in disaster.)
@Kurtroedeger: The lighting's not helping you there, alas. Also, doggo needs a hood as well. Or an eyepatch.
Yeah, maybe I should adjust my goals. Bright and sunny. Looking in an oven at bread rising isn't exactly foreboding, and doggo kisses really kill the ominous vibe.
in re: the bread: You could imagine the bread is evil/cursed bread, like the pie in "Thinner" and do an inner bwahaha or something along those lines. With proper lighting that could work, I think.
in re: doggo kisses: Perhaps the dog is just tasting you to see what herbs and spices to use when he cooks and eats you, because as you know, evil henchmen doggos are treacherous AF.
@thedisasterautist to be fair, it was me giving the doggo kisses. I will have to work on my evil countenance some more.
