ITS BEEN ONE WHOLE YEAR SINCE WE STARTED OUR JOURNEY AND WE'RE STILL JUST ON CHAPTER 2!!
All jokes aside, this is a love letter to all of you from your good ol' pal Nortsauce. We couldn't have made it this far without your support and love and creativity.
I'd be honored if you read it :]
When we first started this project, fly had to cajole me into getting into the story a little bit, as I was a little intimidated by the premise. They burst into my room at around 2-3am holding Hailey Senpai's voice dub right to my still-waking face, and made a bet with me saying "I bet you could rewrite this." I was hesitant. But after seeing so many awesome rewrites, I say down and decided "Ah what the heck. Lets have fun with it."
And WE rewrote it :]
We spent nights upon nights throwing ideas at each other, sitting in our bedrooms at 9pm for the last few weeks of June, hammering down what we wanted and using our giant whiteboard to write out a timeline.
By the time we had come up with a pretty good premise, fly said that it was too fun not to do an ask blog, just like the good ol' days, but they were scared to do it. This was another point of my hesitancy, as my previous ask blogs were kind of stressful. I told them to do whatever they wanted, but they never did it.
Finally, i got the stick out of my ass, and I made it for them. I made the hyperlink, I made the hashtag system, I set up the profile and i spent an HOUR figuring out the stupid "Read from the beginning" link (that was later) I made a pfp and fly made a banner.
And it was done!
It never would have happened if fly and i didn't just say "Screw it." And forced each other to start the project.
Now we are here, we have a wonderful community, we have so many ideas, and best of all (my personal favorite)
We have so many new stories being told!!!
It feels like i'm a kid again. I'm always excited to talk about ideas with fly, discuss with friends, answer silly questions, see all the comic dubs, the art, the fan fictions the poetry the songs.
That people are loving creating art again.
I hope to see so much more. So many more stories, so many more characters, so many ideas, so many new friends.
HIYAAA HEY SORRY ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE IVE POSTED ART 💔
here is some stuff ive made throughout the past couple of weeks!! :) im still actively working on the animatics if anyones wondering, but I’ve unfortunately lost a lot of motivation 😭 NO WORRIES THO cuz i will still be posting em even if they do end up unfinished!! (I’ve put too much work into em now theres no way i couldn’t 💀)
More doodles under the cut and me yapping lol 👇
I’ve been trying to figure out how i want to draw all the characters in motm for so long 😭 boris is so incredibly difficult to draw so i made a whole little doodle page for him just testing out different brushes and expressions!! I had a lot of fun drawing him i love his silly little ears <3 ALSO in the boris doodle i wrote “bad wolf” which is a ref to this song
I remember listening to this when i was a little kid, it holds a very special place in my heart ❤️ AND ITS STILL FIRE EVEN AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
i was also testing out how i wanna draw cuphead and i made a couple tweaks to his design, see if u can spot em all 😼
ive been thinking of maybe posting art unrelated to motm here but im unsure if i should just dedicate this account to motm or make it an account for all my art ehhhhhh decisions decisions
ok bye bye my little chudlings i hope to post more art again soon but we’ll see 👀👀
Holy wow this entire update was SO MUCH and SO PEAK and I wanted to share a realization I had about Cuphead's dream -- cw: mentions of & thoughts of suicide:
The entire sequence is absolutely phenomenal visual storytelling that really drives home the psychology behind Cuphead's self worth and views on the world.
We get to see up close and personal just how entangled that gambling addiction is to how the world works in his mind. He starts off on a roulette table, which naturally turns into a game of Russian Roulette.
And the fantastic symbolism that the first part of himself he kills is his gambler self. That version of him is what got him and Mugman into the messes they've been in time and time again, it's what's cost him his home, his family, his relationships. He feels absolutely no remorse over that gambler version of him dying.
But then...
He sees his younger selves wanting to participate in this dangerous game...
And he panics. They are the little innocence remaining in him (not to mention the versions shown here are time capsules of two very distinctly traumatizing events for him).
His immediate response is to take the gun to protect them.
And then...
In the next panels, he tries to empty the gun on himself. Why? To save his younger selves.
Besides... aside to the gambler self already he killed off, he sees his current self as the least worthy of sparing out of all of them. He will not take the chance that his childhood selves could die in this game of roulette. Plus, he's protecting them. So what if he dies? They'll be safe then, and it'll be for a noble cause. It'll redeem him, maybe, even if only in death.........
...and then... much to his disappointment......
Once again, he can't die.
And it's the first time we ever actually see him lose his cool...
So unbelievably peak, my jaw was on the floor the whole time and my gut was in a big ole knot from how hard it hit. Thank you both so so much for taking your time in researching and accurately representing nightmares and dreams. The whole surrealism sequence was so well done, it really thoroughly captures how PTSD dreams work, especially because it's not obvious what specific memories dreams are pulling from. Down in our subconscious, it's hardly ever the events themselves that matter, but how they made you feel and how they affected you since.
YESSS
OH THIS MAKES THE WHOLE UPDATE SO WORTH IT. TO HEAR EVERYONES THOUGHTS AND ANALYSIS ITS PERFECT
I love love love this and i'm so happy you were able to find comfort or understanding in our comic
Cupheads whole dream genuinely made me feel nauseous
it was so so incredibly well done wow?? The roulette, the animated parts that came with it, all his expressions and emotions. Chefs kiss!!!
I want to talk about it more but im horrible at putting thoughts into words forgive me 😭😭🙏 in summary this whole update was a rollercoaster and im debating what panels i want to redraw (THERES JUST SO MANY GOOD ONES)
cant wait for whatever comes next!! nort and fly u guys r so goated at this
holyyy craapppp this is actually insane dude what??? his smile is terrifying (i lovee the subtle glow on heree)
im guessing this is another effect of the blot? 😭 it makes me question if this is straight up what bendy is dreaming about (just pure ink void) or if this is something that’s preventing astro from seeing what hes ACTUALLY dreaming about? GRAHHHHH this is so freaking cool tho i love it sm gotta be one if my fav parts of the comic by far 🙏
More motm art. I hesitated if I should post this but now Im here lol. Heavily inspired by @/flygutzz 's MOTM x The Backrooms art!!!!
TW:GORE + THE BACKROOMS SPOILERS????
Backroom movie just arrived at my country and I watched it right on the first day it's out!! When I saw the motm dining room art- (This post)
Bendy's nacissistic character really matched Clark and they both have an alternate version of themselve too?!?!?!? what a coincidence!! since I am currently having a Hyperfixation on 2 media at the sametime, so I came up with this.
I was soooooo obsessed with it! THAT'S SO GENIUS!! This art is inspired by that one scene in the backrooms that remind me of Saturn devouring his son if ykyk
hey hey hi hello heres some sneak peeks into animatics im working on 👀
now guess which sketches i did at 2 am and which ones I did well rested!!
also i watched the tadc finale
i don’t even know what to say fr
i watched the backrooms too!! super good i was gripping onto my sibling the whole movie 10/10 do recommend!!
