I considered finishing this off just to have something done, but I think its better to just stop now I've identified what's not working.

I see the potential in doing this 2D skew thing, but it's still not there.

Not gonna lie, the first iterations were godawful. But you can just plonk the triangle nose on them and push all the features down the face, and its not too bad!

You beat me to it, that shit cracked me up

Gotta be a productive member of society again and I just want to fuck around with my dollies.

Image one: A small potato creature holds up a picture to a taller figure. The picture is a crudely drawn bear wearing another bears skin. The text says "It's a bear wearing another bear's skin." Image two: The same scene with the creature and the figure. The creature is looking slightly deflated. The text says "Are you off your medication?"

A conversation from work that's been tickling me

I rarely show people irl what sort of art I make that isn't commissioned stuff, the reactions always vary but they've never not made me laugh

I can only embrace my own oddities, they're not going away

I might give it a peek.. Back when I didn't have so many blorbos to invest in

Ty for entertaining my curiosity mate!

How is Tomodochi? A mate of mine had the first(?) version and they were always raving about it, but it never got me into it. But these screenshots (and stuff from others), looks so good.

I need an excuse for my switch aside from animal crossing ...

This is more tedious than if I just drew it all myself but I've committed

It must be wild growing up as a young artist in these times. I remember back in the day, looking up to studios and people like, that's where I wanna be!!

And now you get to sit and watch these amazing professionals just get kicked out of their livelihoods every other week.

Big shoutout to the people who would try and meta my esoteric Wretch shitposting off these and other necromancy related notes, and be way off the mark every time.

Come to find the evil villain necromancer. Find an old man laying in his own drunken piss.

Started thinking. What if not full illustration, what if these old, piss poor imitation of those old anime screnshot things.

I'm doing more posting about art than making art at the moment. Art block has me craving easy dopamine.

I might redraw these two. 2022 art yikes ..

I can already see it happening anyway mate

"no more elves please"
the first five elves to turn up
"yeah sure"

I'm looking to make the example now, just indecisively picking one of my own to draw. Which led me to just thinking - I love you guys, the elf lovers out there (I don't but you get me) - but I don't think I can draw more elves

Not even for cash monies you know
I might genuinely limit the elf comms

we have a table upstairs in work with portraits of our two recently deceased coworkers, and for a moment, as I skid across the bathroom floor I thought

thats me next on the shrine

I'm gonna be real I did enjoy myself writing it a little

Although I ripped most of the vibe off what I wrote for Lambkin and my nelf (tropes within tropes??)

I've worked with Unreal before but its a bit too beasty for a little point and click adventure game thing.

I like my web-based stuff even if I've got a lot to learn, but things like layouts etc are such a tedium, and I wonder if changing scenes would be easier in Godot than using Phaser or whatever

I've happened upon an idea that is like, finally like, an actual horror concept for ANIMAL and I'm hoping I can pull it off

It's on my to-do list..

In other ANIMAL news I'm thinking of swapping development to Godot rather than a browser based format. We shall see...

"and honestly, who doesn't love a good dragon piece?" was so ChatGPT coded lmao

A sentence just subtly unnatural enough

Nervously trusting the process throughout this.

It'll be less flat when I go in and do all the shadows etc at the end. Maybe it'll work? Maybe it won't. Gotta wait for the iPad to charge..

Unsubbing again full in the knowledge it'll last five minutes, because I'll inevitably come back to farm the Twilight stuff when it's in the game.

Maybe they're an adherent to the loa, maybe they just like the drip, who knows..

I didn't get impressively far with the design last night, but it's getting there. Likely I'll have everything layerable and changeable like I did with that reference for my Vulpera DK.

Stealing aspects of Mueh'zala for the attire too, its hard not to imagine some sort of person to the design.

I do plan to finish up and sell the troll design (finally). It won't be for big time money, just a little something extra for the month.

Before my latest hypomanic bullshit that got me through the comms ended, I had this ludicrous idea of drawing portraits to make a little AA gallery for my characters. Then I drew one and characteristically gave up.

Also remember that troll? I didn't until I opened the folder.

Also maybe trying to Bloodborne the faith is a bit too far a stretch. Yago's backstory is one part "nameless npc mob in aku'mai dungeon".

You say your Gods are divine but adventurers just killed them yet again? I like to accept the absurdity of the game world at large.

Stupid Yago thoughts about the dispassionate hunger of the void vs, the old gods literally gave us the curse of flesh you guys they love us.

I'm huffing copium that CosmosVoid and OldGodVoid are related but not the same.You could Bloodborne it, I couldn't pull it off without it being derivative.

I can't tell you how many guilds I've been in, or events I've DMed myself that have been "investigate the cult". In keeping myself properly off the sauce, I shall live vicariously by trying to promote others to do my favourite sort of things.

None of my characters have a fixed abode I could build with them foremost to mind. So I went instead for a place that kind of fits Yago (cult lair), but I'm building it with the idea of like, IF (BIG *IF*) I finish it, I want it to be somewhere others could use for an event.
