When You Slowly Lose Your Mind

You know, as an writer of stories where the relative sizes of characters is important, I often slap together reference images to help me. Without them it can be hard to visualize what is even possible in the story. They are also crucial when maintaining a consistent and realistic description of events and actions.

But after days of working on a story that just isn't coming together well, and once my mind starts to unravel with frustration, that stupid reference image starts to become something else.

A source of bizarre entertainment.

Like, for anyone who doesn't know why this picture exists, it must look freaking weird. I can just hear the confused commentary as people try to understand what is happening.
