a black and white (with hints of red) illustration of alex kralie and brian thomas as hoody from marble hornets. alex kralie is in his more season two appearance with the striped hoody, short hair, but also has hints of season three with his unshaven face and missing glasses
he is on the ground, on his back, shoving away at Hoody by the shoulder and by the face, pushing up Hoody's mask to reveal a coldly staring eye, worse unshaven face with poor skin. Alex seems equally scared and enraged, frantic in his attempts to escape Hoody who is on top of him, holding both gloved thumbs inside his mouth and pulling at his cheeks. he hovers over him, between his legs, posture rigid and overwhelming. the hits of red are in alex's shirt and the face on hoody's mask
there is code over the entire image that is broken up bit-by-bit but the entirety of the thing can be decoded to read as such: Your perfect life has cracks in it. I'm gonna stick my fingers in and rip them wide open. Chaos is the only constant and nature hates symmetry. You were never in control and your bid for it is laughable.
the same as the previous image, but without the coded text overlayed on top

i had been trying to push my poses, angles, and overall compositions at the time (still am) now that art itself isn’t overall always feeling like an uphill battle
