The Lorax Fandom - Tumblr Posts

HAPPY THNEEDMAS TO @hauntedphgrph 🎄 I am your secret santa and sorry for the delay!! I HOPE YOU LIKE THIS ROCKY i loved LOVED drawing him, i had never drawn him so detailed so it was fun to do it ☺️‼️ merry thneedmas (somewhat belated) and Happy New Year!! RAAAHHHGG

i'm just coming back to say that this is TOO COOL AAHJDHJAGGG i mean, as someone who since joining the fandom has tried to read as many things about the fandom as i can, it's fascinating, it doesn't matter if the video lasts a i just want to know and learn more about all this ;;v;;

Calling all Oncelings! I need your help!

Greetings, Onceler fandom! Tis I, MJ, just a little guy who wants your help on a big project I'm planning!

Here's the rundown: I want to do a deep-dive video on the Lorax, from its origins to its adaptations, to the cultural phenomenon that it has become, including a HUGE dedicated section to the fandom and its history! And I need your help with it! Keep reading if this interests you :D Rough outline of topics that I'm plannning on addressing:

THE CONTENT:

The Original 1971 Book

The 1972 Short

The 2012 Illumination Movie (And what went WRONG, the cut content, analysis)

The 2015 Musical

THE IMPACT:

The Onceler Fandom's Beginnings and Early Years (2012)

Shipping (Oncest, Normaler, the like)

Onceler OCs and aus! (Possibly an OC feature from those in the fandom!)

The Lorax in Meme Culture

The Resurgances of the Fandom (2015, 2021, 2023 Tiktok Boom)

Where's the fandom at now?

It's a huge project and that's why I want you all to help me with it! What do I want your help with? At the moment this is my list!

Research and Fact Checking on the "Content" Section, especially on lesser known topics like the musical or the cut content! (Pspspsps calling the five of you who actually know what the musical is)

RESEARCH AND FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCES OF THE ONCELER FANDOM'S EARLY DAYS!! I joined this place in 2023 so I don't know much about the early days of the fandom, and I want to know SO much more than I do! I want to know the scope, everything from the in-jokes to the aus to the deoncelerization. If you've been in this fandom since 2012 I would LOVE to hear from you!

Last but not least, I want the end of this video to be a love letter to this community, sharing firsthand experiences of what the Onceler as a character and the fandom means to you! I want to conduct interviews with people over discord (which is going to be a lot less fancy than it sounds so dw, it's not going to be an interrogation LMAO)

Specifics are subject to change but one thing will stay, I want to end the video to be made out of raw Love and Appreciation for this fandom, showcasing the side of this little corner of the internet that people who brush it off as mindless cringe don't see. All I've seen from this community is love and support and I want to be the video essayist who shows it for what it is!

At the moment I don't really have much of a plan (I'm not a very good planner lol), but if enough interets garners I know it'll help me streamline my motivation and come up with a game plan!

Feel free to leave me suggestions for where to go from here, maybe give out my discord? Make a Discord Server? Maybe there's something I can do solely on tumblr? I don't know! I don't know at all how Tumblr works! Help Me! Am just a little guy!

Alright that's all from me for now gamers, if this project interests you all in any capacity or you want to help out, please reblog/reply/message/ask/howeveranythingworksonthissite to let me know! Feel free to ask me questions or whatever as well! Peace out for now ✌️

WIP SKLDDJKA i was supposed to be making the comic AND i ended up watching hamilton for the 739738th time and upon listening "your obedient servant" i couldn't help but make a small animatic (it's still a wip)

1/2 JAKSHAHA HIIIIII GUYS IT'S ME AGAIN here is the comic that i promised....just the day before yesterday i was able to advance this, school is killng me now hahaha and i definitely have to focus on it like never before, but well, about the comic AAAAGH I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT ISABELLA you know, her design is very interesting and fun to draw for me

apart from the fact that in the conceptual art she has a much more sophisticated outfit AND that was the one that gave me the inspiration to do this hehe

this is what i'm talking about >:), the whole family has their elegant version and k love the concEEEPt

there are still 3 pages left to color so wait for it ª

Here is the drawing without text....AND I LOVE HOW IT LOOKED

SOME DRAWINGS for some questions on instagram (i NEVEEEER use the app but uuhm i used it again) although the last drawing was just some silly doodles of a fem version of the onceler JAJAJJA

HELLO GUYS it's me, again djjdkdjd stopping by to leave you some drawings that I made for some questions on Instagram, and to tell you that I'm still alive and I really want to draw again (apart from the fact that i am finally free and will have time to do it))

btw like many here, my ONE YEAR anniversary in the fandom has already passed, but weeell i decided to take as my anniversary the day i made my first drawing of the Onceler and that was June 4th so UUUH I WILL THINK ABOUT WHAT TO DRAW 💥

here is my drawing for my anniversary:"))🥳🥳 a year ago today in my instagram stories i shared my first drawing of the onceler, and i didn't share it beyond my stories out of shame....but look, in the end i ended up here jsjdjs and i am very happy

i wanted to make a fanart that focused on the Onceler, yk he was the reason i entered in HIS fandom JAKSJSJSJ, but i ended up deciding to make a drawing with other things that i love about the movie and i said "why don't i draw myself in truffula valey?"

i really love the conceptual art of the movie, the animals and other things haha, it really makes me want to live there, everything looks so awesome and peaceful

join the fandom was a big step for me and something that brought me many good things, one of them and the most important was being able to meet each of the people i have interacted with :") i really appreciate you guys and i appreciate that you like it what i do💖

even if we haven't interacted!! the fact that many are still here, supporting me and each other, touches my heart 😭🥹

REALLY THANK YOU!!! and i'm sorry for not drawing the onceler here hahaa i wanted to make it out a little more personal :^

here are some close up shots💖

i love EVERYTHING that has to do with nature in the movie🤩💖‼️

BTW GUYS!!! it's the first time i'm going to make a poll here and it's to ask you something that i've been thinking about for a while and it's about what i want to do to thank you and celebrate 1k followers here without your help k wouldn't be here like, i've never gotten this far on any art account JSKSJA (only on tiktok but we all know how numbers work on tiktok) BUT WHATEVER here are the options, which i haven't been able to decide on

DTIYS- well, obviously this would consist of doing a "draw this in your style", although i'm not really a fan of qualify the drawings(?? i don't think i'm capable of doing it yk

Magma- a magma canvas where some of us can draw together ^v^ i would love to do this one, but i hesitated because i don't really know how to moderate magma JAKSJAK

AND FINALLY

THE DRAWING-this last option was the one that made me think about doing the poll in the first place, since it would consist of a drawing (ofc about the onceler JSKSJSJ) where if you choose this option, you could make a cameo, you would give me your oc or your sona and i would draw them!! but, first of all, i needed know how many people would like to participate

BUT THAT!!, whoever you choose will be fine, after all, it's something i want to do to interact more with you guys!!

OKAY!! do you remember the poll i did a while ago (?? weeeell, the winner was the DTIYS option so...HERE IT IS!!! it's something simple but well i did my best jskdjks

i hope you guys have fun :"3 i do this to celebrate many things and i wanted to at least do something to interact more yk

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!!💖🫂

here the version without the letters!!

any questions you can tell me ( °∇^)］

FINALLY @shakooo DTIYS!!, I was soooo waiting for it!!, yay!, so here it is, hope u like it, rlly fan of her art💥💥‼️

I KNOW IT LOOKS WEIRD BUT I SWEAR I BEEN LONG ENOUGH IN THIS FANDOM AND I STILL HAVE PROBLEMS DRAWING THIS LANKY ASS MF💸💥

i won't lie to you, making this drawing distracted me from making the comic AND IT WAS because i just wanted to practice making a quick background, but uhh i think i took it more seriously lol

although i have been advancing :D/ i have not shown more progress cuz i do not want to spoiled everything hehe i want it to be a surprise 😌 anyway, i hope you like it and here's a close up shot( °∇^)］

FIRST OF ALL: I TRIED TO DRAW HIM (I didn't draw for years so it endep somehow in the adventure time style, it wasn't my purpose!)

DTIYS Submission!

Dtiys held by: @shakooo

how i love doing dtiys's

I was having a little trouble with the guitar since I'm not skilled at drawing instruments. Anyway i got to experience more with lighting, gotta be my favorite part when drawing digitally c: I have nothing else to say but I really enjoy these things. Also, congratulations Shakooo!

FINALLY i made his iconic painting in my style sjksjs lately i have been so motivated that even today i made 3 drawings!!! like WHAAT but whatever, i did this pretty quickly and i'm actually satisfied with the result heh

Okay this is the last place I'm posting it (me after tagging Shako in every single platform) I HAD SO MUCH FUN MAKING THIS 💥💥💥 CONGRATS ON REACHING 1K 🎉🎉🎉

Here are some alternatives I did as well :D

RAHHHH THIS TOOK SO LONG (but totally worth it)

YIPEEE HERE IS WHAT IS PROMISED (well, half of what was promised, since on monday i will upload the other 3 remaining pages ;D/ i wanted to upload it ALL at once, but better this way, i hope you like it

ihaven't done a comic with color in a while, and well, making this was an excuse to draw backgrounds and MORE BACKGROUNDS JSKSJS im very new to this but making this mini comic was fun!!!

anyway, this mini comic arose from a drawing i made in my english class, i rrreally liked that i ended up extending it until it ended up being what it is JAKAJAJA

Spanish version!!

A year ago I had found a page to draw or animate in pixel and I just remembered about it kdsjf sooo i did this

i know it look kinda weird but equis somoschavos

AND HERE I AM!!! with the final part :") i had a LOT of fun making this comic like you have no ideAAAa, i still need to learn to make the backgrounds and everything else better but i like to practice making these minicomics ^v^

y como siempre, aquí la versión en Español!!!

@shakooo DITYS!!

Felicidades tanto por tus 1k como por tu entrada en la universidad!! Te mando buenas vibras y éxito con los estudios c;

Al final si me convencí de participar y creí que no acabaría a tiempo porque no me sentía motivada y a la vez estaba trabajando, pero realmente lo disfruté y me dió un poco de nostalgia volver a dibujar a 12 Onceler espero te guste >u<
