Artfight 2025: a brief crossover with @sketchabear's Sloane

I genuinely can't tell if this blog is still active but hi I love those funny muppet people!!! I have a question tho! Are they just homies or "oh my god they were roommates?" You don't have to answer this question if it makes u feel uncomfy or have answered such an ask before! :D /gen

they're not even actual roommates, hah. Steven has been known to develop brief but intense crushes on anyone who is nice to him but generally prefers girls. Sid is... far too overwhelmed by Being Alive at this point in time to be able to remember that romance, as a concept, exists

#I put the 12ncr pals up on my artfight though so maybe that will inspire me to return to them...#I had whole arcs of where they were gonna go through their freshman/sophomore year planned but I am keeping myself so busy #when i started this I was kind of dealing with college at the same place/rate as them but I'm a rising senior now so I have outpaced them #which is an odd feeling

Just wondering, is this comic in any way based on young john linnell and john flansburgh?

I think my interest in TMBG is a little too well-documented for me to deny that! The OG character designs were inspired by 70s They and muppets (the Muppets are a 70s phenomena so it fit perfectly) but I found the muppet designs had so much character in their own right that they immediately became their own beings altogether.

Sydney was a band kid in high school, but played flute. Outside of performing as an ensemble, though, Sid doesn’t really listen to music much. That’s a brain problem situation I somewhat share with dear Sydney: when music is playing talking, reading, listening, or generally performing any other task becomes very difficult. Audio shuts off multitasking.

Stephen can’t play anything, but he likes dance electronica, heavy metal, and industrial music. He really just likes anything with a solid beat and a lot of interestingly-textured distortion. He could probably be a kickass drummer, a la Animal, but that would require someone being willing to give him a drumset/lessons. Those who know him would mostly prefer to not sit through that.

I don’t think Syd and Stephen would make a very good band together. They don’t understand each other’s musical tastes enough to be able to collaborate on a final product that sounds like a song that anyone but Stephen would listen to. Neither of them are really lyricists, either. They’re tech kids first and writers maybe.... third. Or fourth.

That was an unreasonably long answer to your question, but there you go!

#b #no color whatsoever was a boring choice I'm glad I started using a single color more... this just looks flat

i luv the characters from @12n-cr so much that i drew them again! they’re talking to each other on the phone probably about robots

#again seymour hifivesoup delivers the goods #i love em so much and i really like your take on stephen with the big chunky teeth #fan art

i noticed that stephen and sidney from @12n-cr kinda looked like puppets so it gave me an idea …. a good idea :o)

#every time they get fanart i absolutely combust #look at the mini smashy spikeman #the muppets have become the muppeteers!#i'm so sorry that school keeps happening and i don't update :(#they will be back by may i swear it #fan art

it is VERY frustrating to me how slowly I put out very simple updates vs how many ideas I get.... I just don’t seem to be able to work on both every OTHER side project I’ve made up for myself and still give this one the attention it deserves!

I don’t want to totally stop but I also feel like they Deserve Better than widely spaced catchup comics that don’t develop fast enough to keep up with their existences in my head.

#I have like 3 characters I wanna introduce but specific things have to Happen first #who even stops making a comic because Too Many ideas. this is dumb but frustrating.#I can sit down and think of like 10 pages worth of comics in an hour but then it takes me a week and a half to get a 4-page gag drawn #:(

#b #this is jarring cause it's reminding me of my usual dependence on dot eyes #stephen sit up straight and normal for 5 seconds so you're easier to draw challenge

here’s a little piece of a previous version of a previous comic that I liked better except I couldn’t get the layout to work so I ditched it and swapped things around

#I redrew this one stupid panel at least 4 times and wasn't even a huge fan of the final but that's how it works

I drew Sidney and Stephen from @12n-cr in really cute urban street wear I saw………..i love these two sm, this was so fun to draw!

#AW MAN!#IT'S THEM!#thanks Han I owe you everything for putting more love into their lines than I've ever been able to #fan art #:)

#b #sorry this took so long. I spent two full weeks with all of this done except the bottom left panel for some reason

Happy Christmas break!

#b #merry christmas!
