My name is Shawn Will I'm a 28yr Artist/Animator/Comedian, this is mainly an Art Blog as well as the Official Creator's/Development Blog of: "Glitch Hunters", but I will be sharing my work outside of it in comedy and podcasting from time to time here too. Glitch Hunters is an original independent adult animated action comedy series! It's about a blue collar duo, the stressed stoner glitch scientist known as Strange Weird and the super strong, girl-bossing, pro wrestling champion named Scene! They are the independent contractors brought in by the corrupt government and wrestling promoter President of their simulated world that people hire to fix glitched rifts in reality and fight the monsters, superhumans, and absurd problems these glitches create. When Strange meets a sweet demon class glitch named Cakes, they fall in love, but he begins to wonder what the point of his job really is. On this blog there will be: -OC art, lore, promo/key art, and development progress on the pilot/series. -Fandom art at various points cause y'all like it. -Me reblogging and showing off friend's cool art/art I like. -i try to *NOT* to post memes, art tutorials, photos, vent post or etc but it may happen very rarely. I don't use Tumblr everyday so if you see me like a bunch of your posts all at once that's me either discovering your blog for the first time or catching up!
Welcome to @askstrangeweird! My name is Shawn Will, I'm a comedian and artist! This blog here is mostly where you can see all my fandom art and OC art and plans for my upcoming animated indie pilot, "Glitch Hunters!" which is still pretty early in development. But I also of course do Stand Up Comedy and host a Podcast called: "Shawn Will: Be Here" which is over on my youtube or spotify!

[[Blog Status: The little cartoon characters in my head are finally starting to have voices!!! Excited about all the slow progress on the 3D models, storyboarding and voice cast coming together ((now if only i could animate faster))!]]
The programs I use are, MediBang Paint, CSP, and Blender, I do all my art I can on either my PC or my phone. not the best 3D stuff, but I'm getting there slowly!
A sample of my stuff below the cut:
Fandom Related Art!
Glitch Hunters Art and 3D Model Progress updates!
Art for Friends! This before features characters belonging to @gorjee-art
Updated Height Charts of Current OC roster:
((Cakes was created and designed by my wonderful and talented friend @galaxydragos-artstation who helps me with ideas, and who you should totally go follow, characters featuring designs by equally talented @jiinglespurs will appear more in the future as well!))
GLITCH HUNTERS: is a show about a pair of best friends, Strange Weird (Michael Norton) and Scene Eden ( @jiinglespurs ) working as government contractors to help everyday people against Glitches they encounter while living inside a simulation! They work directly under the evil and corrupt ONE World Government President, Booker (Mark Philipp), that runs a blatantly illegal and criminal infested Wrestling promotion on tax dollars. Scene, the Glitch Hunters' muscle, uses the World Heavyweight Championship as leverage to blackmail Booker for continuous funding. One night Strange met and falls in love with Cakes, a demon from another dimension, an S-Level glitch, and after he begins questioning the entire reason he he does his job.

*Note*
Don't assume things about me irl based on my characters. I am a bi white nonbinary male (He/Him), however I like having a diverse cast of characters of all sexualities, genders and races because it reflects my friends and the reality we should be working towards, and I refuse to change that to fit anyone else's wants, and I avoid writing about hate centered issues like racism sexism, and homo/Xenophobia, not because I'm denying they exist and matter, but because I don't have the authority to speak on these things as if I have experienced them from all perspectives, and I understand that even if I did i may be speaking from a place of privilege. I also avoid religion as a topic, for much of the same reason, and because my fictional world in a fictional simulation may not mess with irl belief systems in a respectful way. If I am ever successful enough to hire a diverse team of people to help me improve the world I'm building now to be equipped to tell those kinds of stories through the correct lens, I'd be more than happy to consider it, but for now it's just me and I'll stick to what I'm comfortable with speaking on.
Hey guys want to share the newest episode of my podcast here. It's a conversation with my buddy and comedian Jacob Barr. You might recognize him from the most video episode of Kill Tony or his TED Talk. It took about a month of fighting with YouTube and it admittedly has visual issues I couldn't fix because both my equipment and my PC didn't wanna cooperate, but it's up now, and I still think it makes for a really enjoyable video! It was a lot of fun especially the parts where we talk the differences, between creative, crazy and cringe, my in production indie pilot Glitch Hunters that Jacob will be a part of and our love of both Pro Wrestling and Yu-Gi-Oh, what it's like to host a TED Talk and about how Scott The Woz ruined Jacob's G4 hosting career before it started (only kinda kidding lol). How you'll give it a chance even if you just leave it on in the background while doing other things! If you do like it consider subscribing or just reblogging this to help it spread more? I appreciate any and all support!
I just had someone with "AI music producer" in their bio follow me. If I haven't made it clear already (idk how but still), I am against the use of generative AI for the creation of art. That being visual, musical or otherwise. You're robbing yourself of the creation process, wasting our water, raising our power bills, enabling theft, and flooding our spaces with slop. Anyways... Hand mad human art coming soon, whenever my PC cooperates.
A card for Strange Weird, the male MC and 1 half of the titular "Glitch Hunters". The arms represent Strange in a "Cosmic Flow State", and he's holding various gadgets and glitched relics he'd take on jobs, and standing in front of the Kaiju Killer, his custom work van/mech. Made using a combo of Blender and Clip Studio Paint.
I've also been 3D modeling a wrestling arena for the climax of the Glitch Hunters pilot. still needs work, (mostly the higher levels of seating) but I'm liking the Monday Night Wars era vibes.
Gonna be posting my Works In Progress more often to try and be more active. Each WIP explained under the cut.
Top one is a Hades themed parody of a Doom poster, I'm gonna draw Zagreus in the place of Doom Slayer.
Next is a in progress 3D model of Scene (the female lead character of Glitch Hunters), with a partial 3D sculpt of a Lampkin, which is a creature that is planned to be the in Glitch Hunters pilot as well.
The next piece with the knife girl, angel-ghost and robo-walker is an old sketch i did back when i was first learning digital art that I'd love to take another crack at.
At bottom we have a small page of sketches of Sue Storm aka, The Invisible Woman from Marvel Rivals. Next to that is the current set of Booker's Office, which will be used in the Glitch Hunters pilot.
This is (from left to right) ChickenSkin, Ted Father's (with 'Quackers: The Bad Vibes Duck' on his hand) and The Bullet Reaver, who together are 'The Swamp Bois'; a faction/gang of psycho killer mercenaries that act as reoccurring villains of the week in "Glitch Hunters". Two of whom already have voice claims.
What if I said I was making a custom designed Yu-Gi-Oh structure deck of all my OC's from Glitch Hunters? Like not proxies (I mean they are fake so yes proxies) but a full main deck of 40 cards and an full extra deck of 15 cards, all unique? Then printed them out on card stock and used my custom deck based off my OCs to duel the homies? I will share them all once they are all properly formatted and proofread, and will ask you then at that point if they seem balanced to you
(Note the final product will have the watermark on the bottom removed, but I do not plan to pass these off as real cards and I do not plan to attempt to enter a tournament with cards. They are purely going to be for fun.)
I had my friend and Drag Queen Freedia Nipps on for the debut episode. You can tell I'm still new at all this content creation and podcast production thing, but you have to start somewhere and it'll only improve and get better from here!
