Surrender the Outcome.

I sit among many fandoms, but I forget which.

This is an illuminated manuscript/journal thing I did forever ago. I'd given up completing it. Used it for color palette practice (i paint with so much rainbow I could make Skittles lovers nauseous). But this one actually sorted itself out!!! The dude in the center is Frankie, an OC whom I and like 2 friends know about. He's chill.

This is Flint, a character from fabulous mobile game Postknights 2, by devs Kurechii. His fancy rogue outfit in the blossom festival event was the best excuse to draw him. yay for boys in flower crowns <3

When a quiet fog rolls in, most creatures hunker down, settling into burrows and dens to keep warm. But some things ooze between trees and houses, propelled by the slow cold air that flows like a dying exhale. They think with many voices, but one mind. And that mind is filled with one principle: Collect to kill, kill to collect.

I forgot I colored Rex for fun.

“Ugh can’t stand babies they cry so much!”

That tiny Human spirit has shat himself 4 times today if you’d shat yourself 4 times by noon you’d be in hysterics too

He fell asleep in his bed, at home, and woke up at the goddamn grocery store with an overhead light in his face if that happened to you you’d become The Joker

[asteroidtroglodyte]

Poor guy’s only been here for like a dozen weeks he doesn’t even have a favorite show to distract him yet he’s just raw-dogging reality unfiltered with no goddamn Blorbos to rotate whatsoever

Dude has, at this point, one communication signal.

Fortunately for him, it is a very important communication signal, especially given what he's going through right now. It says, "This is, in some way, unsatisfactory." Unfortunately, it's not very specific and he doesn't understand much about how to deploy it.

You have to understand, the stomach ache that he has right now is the worst stomach ache in the universe, because as far as he's concerned, the universe is maybe a month old and there's been a limited number of stomach aches in it. Or, the loneliness and anguish he felt when he couldn't see you was the most terrifying isolation in the universe, akin to being adrift in the Boötes Void, for the very same reason. He does not have guidelines to cope with these things. He has barely accumulated enough of a dataset to start evaluating things like, "Most times, when people I know go away, they will reappear eventually," or, "that particular stomach ache will go away if I eat something." He doesn't even know which particular problems can be cured and which can't. He just knows that "technique: scream like fucking banshee" does have some sort of a success rate.

And it's his only move, you think he's not gonna spam it? Get real.

Avoidance is the worst reaction to stress. Oh this thing is giving me anxiety? And it's something I could prepare for by looking at it more or learning things about the topic? No, I will take psychological damage if I look at it directly. I will still be thinking about it and be stressed though.

Yo, I am gonna learn how to make stickers <3. Whether or not that is successful, I get to share mulicorns, which are these rad lil goobers I draw sometimes. They are, in fact, what you get when you cross the cosmic gift of Life with a jackass. in other words, humanity.

I Don’t think I could stop drawing, even if I tried.

READ THIS IF YOU PLAN TO BOYCOTT YOUTUBE LONG-TERM

get an invidious account. it is an alternative front-end to youtube, allowing you to make an account, subscribe to channels, make playlists, and all the other things you use youtube for; all without giving the company a single cent. swearing off youtube long-term is a tall ask, so you can use this to still follow the creators you want to keep up with while continuing the youtube boycott. it has a built-in adblock and anti-tracker, meaning that you can really keep fucking them over.

it doesnt interact with the API at all, it scrapes the metadata to make sure they get as little as possible.

Something I saw with this one is that I really need to work on composition/framing. I can get all the elements in something but still lose the big picture. Like, this is the Guardian from Evil Within 2! I love this monster, but this just does not communicate that creature well. It's hard to get all the good lil details into such a small frame. Things to work on.

Also i would be so pissed off getting stuck in the "murdered by a mediocre artist" club. Like, congrats buddy. Your art is ok, but if your big point is "I use only the edgiest of mediums" I think you are relying on gimmick way more than ability. Go back to high school art and drama, those edge lords will eat your heart for lunch (they forget to eat breakfast).

One of the coolest mascot horror games has to be Shipwrecked 64. It has it all! A masterfully developed early game playstyle, slowly unravelling glitches and horrors, awesome music and sound design enough to make LavenderTown jelly (I rock out to the title song whenever I am anxious) An all around good time with believable mascots and a storyline that doesn't rely on haunted cartridges; just bitter game devs and corporate horrors beyond our comprehension (and who hasn't witnessed a few of those in our day?). What do you mean it's a nightmare scavenger hunt across the internet? What do you mean I should actually play the damn thing? I'm scared, I don't want to.
