End of Chapter 1

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

I FINALLY GOT THIS LAST SET RELEASED AGHHHHH-

SUPER sorry for the wait! I meant to get this done sooner, especially considering it's the last set of Chapter 1 and then it WOULD be reasonable for me to take a small break, but I just got super busy with managing work and school and a whole lot of other things, and thus lead to this coming our later then i'd like...but UH HEY! GOT IT OUT BEFORE SPOOKY DAY!! THAT'S SOMETHING! ...RIGHT? :'D

But um anyhoo- This one is a good one! Honestly think i've been getting better at rendering lightning and shading, especially having fun with all the colors when I can, as per usual I love drawing Tim and Sam together (and even hinting at some things between them ehehehehe >;]), and was fun drawing a bit more of their apartment, especially with the lil pictures round the mirror! Which may or may not be teasing some other characters that'll show up later....guess you'll just have to wait and see for that! >:]

...which'll probably be another what 10 years if I took too long bUT UH S H U S H -

Also holy shit i wanna mention that in the middle of my unintentional hiatus Medibang did in update that essentially got rid of all the previous text fonts I used for Tim and Sam, so if their texts look different that's why- I tried finding fonts that were c l o s e to what i used before but m a n i'm still pissed about that >:/

ONE LAST V E R Y IMPORTANT THING THO!! I want to give the HUGEST thank to my amazing friend Marlo (@iam-unoriginal) for helping me and making that last panel with the eye animation!! I still work on a crappy little IPad with Medibang and Flip-A-Clip, but I always had in mind that last panel being slightly animated to really show the uncanny nature, but I just didn't have the time nor skills right now to do, BUT THEN my amazing friend offered to do it for me, and they did an absolutely perfect job!! Just AGHDJSNSJDH IT LOOKS SO GOOOOD- S T I L L THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Everyone go PLEASE check out their stuff, they have inctedible art and are working on incredible animations and in general is just an incredible person...maybe even try commissioning them if you can just sayiiiiing 👀👀

Before I did get the animation tho i did draw the last panel as a static one just in case Marlo was too busy to do it (they were and yet they still made time for it just rsksmskdh still thank y o u), so just wanted to leave that here if you were curious and I still do like the panel either way! :D

But anyhoo, with all that said and done, i'm gonna go once again die for a couple of months, BUT I do still feel bad for taking so long for this set, so i'll t r y and get Chapter 2 started up soon! Very excited for that, gonna be seeing some new faces in that one! ...Just probably not friendly ones, but we'll get to that later...

[markipliers-madhouse]

Night 1 in a nutshell:

Read my comic here for context please please please please plea-

Not much to say bout this one, just wanted to do a fun lil shitpost since i've had this audio in mind for my AU for a while, and thought it'd be fun to do!

Was a nice to make something rough and simple after all the Art Fight attacks I did (which I will be posting soon) and just doing some simple "animations" (if you can call it that)...also was funny drawing Tim more sad and panicked i can't help it- XD

But yeah, with Art Fight over i should be starting the next set up soon, just gonna probably take a bit more time now that school's starting up again and work constsntly taking a lot of energy from me, but i'll try my damndest! >:D

Keeping An Eye Out

Pages 37-40

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

*falls out of a pile of research papers and job aprons* I'M BACK-

Sorry if i took a lil longer for this set!! I was INCREDIBLY busy during the entirety of finals month, so pair that with me still getting into the groove of my new job and other personal stuff, took me a while to get back to pages, BUT I'M FINALLY BACK NOW CAUSE IT'S SUMMER BABYYYYY- Gonna make the most of it and pump out as many pages as I can! Before I get busy with the school and work combo...f u n -

But uh while we're here, let's talk bout the pages, and that mainly being SAM'S FINALLY HERE HELL YEAH!!! Been looking forward to showing Sam off in the series, so super happy we could get to this point! Just wanted to show off more of Tim's personal life outside the Madhouse and mainly his friends! More will be introduced later, but for now we got his closest friend (and roommate) Sam!

It was a lotta fun writing and designing em, had them in my head for a while so felt good to finally get something concrete on paper! Also was fun throwing in some references on their jacket! And actually all around thiet apartment too, mainly on the fridge but that got mainly covered up by the speech bubble....mah bad-

Oh also Tim being a dumb and not telling Sam what happened cause he doesn't want them to worry...wonder where he got that trait from? ...me it was from me gotta put a lil piece of yourself into your chatacters am I riiiiiight?

But yeah anyway, that's all for now, gonna try and get some more pages out during the Summer, my goal is to AT LEAST have Night 2 started before school starts up again, but we'll see how it goes! :'D

Walk It Off

Pages 33-36

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

HHHHH I GOT THIS DOOOONE- Sorry this took a while been super busy with school and mainly job stuff, BUT had Spring Break a bit ago and that helped a lot in least giving me a base sketch to work off of in-between busy stuff! Hopefully this won't be the norm as course I always wanna work more on the comic, but we'll see how it goes! :'D

But yeah, admittedly nothing too much in this set, more so having some downtime for Tim after all of....that last set, like seeing his path home and some of his thoughts! But don't worry, next set...he'll have someone to talk to ;]

Also don't blame the boi for not going to Urgent Care or something for his hand he's pretty much going through shock and auto pilot for y'know almost being killed so he's not exactly thinking straight-

But yeah, not much else to say, this set was a little bit more fun to show different lighting with the sunrise, and next set should be a bit more interesting I promise. Now if you excuse me I'm gonna go disintegrate my feet from work okay byeeeee-

Out of Hand

Pages 29-32

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

....The animatronics do get a lil quirky at night :]

But ohohOOOHOHOHO THIS WAS A FUN ONE TO DO, BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS SINCE I STARTED THE SERIES HAHAAAA-

First things first- First blood shown in the series! And now Tim's ref is accurate since he'll have a bandage over that hand from now on! Haha yaaaay! :D

Also G o d was Funtime Warfstache fun to do, especially on the third page here. Though his endoskeleton face is a lil bit of a headache to get right every now and then, I really like how it looks at the end! Nice and spooky and just look at him I rmrmrmrm-

But yeah, not too much to say her other then that, and we'll actually be wrapping up Chapter 1 soon since this is technically the end of Night 1! When we get to Day 1 it'll kinda be like- A little epilog of Chapter 1 where we see a bit of Tim's life outside the Madhouse! Just so we see more bout him and not just hop straight into Night 2, but that shouldn't take too long since each "Day" segment should be bout like 2-3 sets or so, so works out!

And I know I've actually been uploading sets a lot quicker then I did before, but I honestly think that's just cause I was really excited for this part with Warfstache, but now it may be slowing down a little more due to some life stuff, mainly now that I finally got a job! But I'll always try to get AU stuff ready as soon as I can! :D

But yeah, if you'll excuse me I gotta make sure Tim's hand doesn't get an infection haha...surely that'll be the worst injury he gets in the series :]

[markipliers-madhouse]

Go BOO!

Pages 25-28

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

OOOOHOHOOOOO BUDDY THIS PAGE WAS F U N - AND IT'S ONLY GONNA GET BETTER FROM HERE HAHAAAA >:DD

But yeah in case you couldn't tell I'm really excited with this set since now we f i n a l l y got a proper look at Funtime Warfstache! And trust me haha we'll definitely be seeing more of him next chapter don't you worry :]]

Other then that tho, not much else to say, was really happy with how this set went, was a lotta fun with all the dramatic lighting/shading and such! And yeah I know I usually post between 3 months to pace myself a little, but...I was too excited to wait so e h -

Oh also! Before I go I do wanna mention the elephant in the room, that being the LA fires and course Mark/everyone's safety, which made me a lil hesitant on posting this, but since then he's made a video saying he, Amy, and the dogs are okay, and I've heard that the fires doing much better in being contained, but even then please try to donate if you can! I'll leave the LINK to the donation page as a reminder, but other then that just hope everyone stays safe out there 💖

But yeah, that's pretty much it, so if you excuse me ima go not pace myself like I said I would before and probably sketch the next set next week only for it to lead to burnout hahaaaa :'D

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

Ohohoho things are going wrooooooong :]]

Other than that tho not much else to say! Tried to get one last set out before the end of the year, and y e a h maybe wasn't that smart of a choice to do so during finals week, but it's fiiiine it looks fiiiiine-

But yeah honestly I will say not too much goin on here, just showing how a lil fucked Tim is rn, power completely going out, and other then that, I won't say much else, but...I am v e r y excited for the next set, so you'll just hafta wait and seeeeee :]]]

Creeping Towards the Door

Pages 17-20

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

.......so let's just say it's a huge coincidence that i'm posting a set earlier than usual to coincide with the release of Edge of Sleep hoping there'll be a few more eyes on the comic yeah sure let's go with thaaaaat-

But sides from that another set down and another one i really like!! Even if it's not tooo active, least compared to the last one, think it still does a pretty good job building up some of the tense atmosphere, especially with pinky gettin closer, so look forward to some of that fun in the future >:]

Also not to toot my own horn but i am also proud of just the colors of the pages i've got going so far, it is real fun to use a bit of a gradient going on the characters and being able to pick out which color fits the right mood ooooohohohoooo that's the good stuff-

Also yes the title of this set is a FNaF song. That may happen a lot from now on since a lot of titles fit well with certain moments in the story. ...I'm sorry in advance.

Anyhoo, if you'll excuse me, ima wait in anticipation for this Friday to see another night guard get traumatized not by robots but by the fucking Moobles....so should go greaaaaaat :]

[markipliers-madhouse]

"I am a real person."

...I totally didn't make this like a month ago and forgot to post it whaaaat what fo you even meaaaaan-

But nah for real not much with this one but i think it was pretty fun! Been meaning to do some more animatic stuff lately (even if it's just rough, sketchy stuff so far), especially for my AU, so decided to dip my toes into that with this smol thing! This audio had been on my mind for a while and thought it fit pretty damn well, so i just hope i was able to pull it off in the spook department, which i think i did pretty well on even if pretty messy! Simple, but sweet/spooky! :D

Also may or may not kinda be a teaser into what's gonna happen in the next set coming up who said that?

But anyways that'll be all for now...unless i get anymore kicks to do some smol animation things for my AU....which i have p l e n t y of ideas on 👁👁

Never Alone

Pages 13-16

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

OH YOU BETTER B E T I'M TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THIS BEING FNAF WEEK TO GET SOME EYES ON MY AU I AM D E S P E R A T E -

But really, pretty happy with this installment again! Getting more and more into the grove of things on how i want this comic to look and be laid out, so hopefully that'll only improve more and more over time! Tho may be a little biased for this set since ooohohoho look who decided to show up, Mr. Edgy Shadow Man himself >:]]

I'm always looking forward to whenever i get to introduce some of the animatronics here, get a taste of some of their vibes, and though Dark's been fun...think your guys are gonna enjoy some other interactions Tim's gonna have in the future. Some of which are gonna happen soon! ....real soon >;]

But i'm getting ahead of myself, for now tho just wanted to drop this off, and now if you excuse me i got other important things to do so *sits patiently for Steel Wool's announment coming out today*

Telephone Ring

Pages 9-12

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

Nothing like a nice phone call to get us all in the mood :]]

But ey another set done! Gotta admit not much going on here, mainly an exposition set explaining the rules/gimmicks the robos got, but still i think a good set overall!

...Mainly just for the last panel on the last page i am really damn proud of that one look at my boi l u r k i n g -

That and also for more Mark! literally title character woah Gotta admit i meant to show him a lil more in this set, but that's okay! We'll be seeing more of him in the future, so look forward to that! ...maybe keep updated by following or something i dunno-

But yeah, not much else to say, just hoping you enjoy this set! And I'm suuuure everything'll be just fiiiine next set. After all...the first night is usually never that eventful :]

Warm Welcome

FIRST - PREV - NEXT

W O A H BACK AT IT AGAIN ONLY...3 MONTHS LATER...THAT'S DECEEENT-

But for real ey again! Really hoping to get the sets out consistently, think this is a good pace, but uh...don't get you expectations up *coUgh* But it honestly was fun to get back into them! Especially since now we've introduced the main location for our series...THE OFFICE!! ...I AM ALREADY D R E A D I N G HAVING TO DRAW IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN HHHH-

But still, pretty proud to how these pages came out! Pretty happy with the overall coloring and shading and such, thing I pinned down the mood I wanted, and, more importantly, WE ALSO GOT INTRODUCED TO OUR OTHER TITLE CHARACTER! ...LITERALLY HIS NAME IS IN THE TITLE >:'D

Fun Fact tho: I originally didn't mean to introduce Mark this soon, at least actually see him since he was first just gonna be conveyed through the phone, but as I was formatting the pages I thought...nah that's stupid he's important...so here we are >:]

But anyhoo, not much else to note here, glad to hahe gotten the pages done at a (hopefully) consistent time and quality, and mainly hoping you guys enjoy either way! :D

...Now if you excuse me back to procrastinating some more hhHH-

Establishing Shot

Pages 1-4

FIRST [YOU ARE HERE] - NEXT

AND WE HAVE OFFICIALLY BEGUN! >:D

Very nervous and excited to see how this goes, so really hoping you guys like the comic so far! Hoping you stick around too, cause trust me when I say it'll be g o i n g p l a c e s -

And I gotta be honest, I was kinda nervous bout starting the comic, thinking I'd have to keep track of so many things and not be able to do some shots (mainly ones with a lot of background hhHh-), but so far I think it's been going good, looks alright, and actually been pretty fun! So now just more excited then anything to get more sets out when I can! >:]

By the way don't ask me when/if pages will be coming out consistently cause honestly I don't know myself fbakndksh-

But ye I'll keep this short, just wanted to say thank you for reading, and hope ya enjoy more from me when it releases! But for now...hope you enjoy this little starter :]

[markipliers-madhouse]

Hello? Hello Hello?

...Well, this place has been dead for a little bit, hasn't it?

Mentioned a little bit before on that collab piece I did, but figured I'd be better to do a full post bout it here!

So, this AU...has been laying dormant for quite some time, and there's not really any excuses for that. I've just been a little busy with school and life in general, but mainly...haven't had much motivation to do it in all honesty, and their's two main factors to that unmotivation.

1. I kinda realized I'd be needing to write a lot for this story, and though I love writing in general...the scope of this would be like writing a few novels if I continued on, and I just wouldn't have the time or sanity to do that, but more on that later for a solution...

And 2. ...I kinda fell out of FNaF for a moment. Well- Not entirely, I'll always love this series, but I guess it was mainly...the state of the fandom after one certain game...Security Breach. After that game came out, it kinda broke the fandom in half. One half being those who hate the game and left the franchise entirely, now seeing it as nothing but for kids and not taken seriously, and the other...well, actually kids. Y'know the ones. You know.

So that kinda left me kinda unsure for my AU, since I thought if I put stuff out now...it wouldn't really be that appreciated. From the start it was meant to harken back to the original classics of FNaF, but with the fandom mostly filled with newcomers for just this one game, and the original fans gone and unhopeful for the franchise, I just kinda...left this place dorment till I felt motivated again.

...And then the Ruin DLC happened, which gave me a spark of motivation. Seemed this franchise was starting to to head to a better place, getting some old fans back, so that's nice. Got me thinking more bout this AU again...

And then the movie happened, and now i've been slapped in the face with motivation.

SO- Guess that's my excuse for why things have been so empty, but now...I AM READY TO OFFICIALLY SAY IT IS STARTING BACK UP! And not just that...but starting fresh! ...Which, isn't saying much, since I only wrote two chapters for it...y e a h - But there's a reason I'm starting fresh, not just for improved art or retconing some of the mistakes of what I did give out, but mainly because...

I'm turning the AU into a comic!!

That's right! Gonna be drawing the whole thing start to finish! Figured this would be better to me since it's quicker then writing it all, and get to show and improve more of my art, so works out! (You can already kinda see some of that with the new pfp and header) Maybe might get some help in the future, maybe might dable in some animation, maybe a lot of things, but guess we'll just hafta see where it goes from here!

What does that mean for the previous content though? All...f o u r of it? Well, that stuff is gonna be non-canon from here on out! It'll be easier this way since those stuff have either some continuity errors that'll effect the story in the long wrong, or just simply I've changed my mind on some things and it'll be a bit more different! I'm still leaving them up, however! Just cause I think it'll be fun to see how far I've come, and ey some art pieces there weren't bad! ...Too bad...okay like one or two were d e c e n t

TLDR of it tho is this: AU's getting a reboot, gonna be made into a comic now, previous stuff is non-canon, and this page should be a bit more active now!

But yeah! Big things are coming, and I am excited to start up this AU again! I have so many plans for this story that I'm just hoping you guys will love, wanna do justice to both sides of the story! So keep an eye on this blog, might take a little longer, but hoping to get things officially and finally started soon!

And to prove some of that, before I go...you guys deserve a a bit of a sneak peak of what's to come, so...hope you enjoy these redesigns >:]

EDIT: THE SERIES HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN- READ EM HERE- AH-

[eyesore-boi]

Meeting once again!

ALRIGHT I AM S T I L L LOOSING MY M I N D OVER THIS JUST SJSMLDJSSSJ AAAAA LOOKS SO GOOOOOOOD-

OKAY- FIRST THINGS FIRST- H U G E S T fucking preesh to my dear friend and INCREDIBLE artist @athenaistrapped who wanted to do this wonderful collab! We had actually done a similar collab a LONG whole ago (2 years) when I was just first starting my FNaF AU, so we just kinda...put these two in a room and see what happened:

AND NOW DAMMIT WE'VE DONE IT A G A I N -

And in a similar way before! I did my Warf, Funtime Warfstache and the background, while Athena did her Warf, Wilford Warfdice and aLL THE INCREDIBLE DETAILS IT ALL JUST LOOKS SO GOOD IN B O T H OF EM JUST AAAAA-

But yeah! For the new collab decided to place them on the office this time around both cause last time we were kinda in Warfdice's world, so this time we did it in Funtime's, which I think worked great a n d gave me some practice with kinda redesigning it! Which reminds me...

For those who don't know, I've been trying to work on an AU of mind pretty much fusing Markiplier and FNaF, and for a while...it's been pretty much dead. BUT- I've now got some plans...so if you wanna see more of this or are interested in what this AU is about, maybe give it a peak if you want...

Markiplier's Madhouse

Famous YouTuber Markiplier has opened a new FNaF based attraction dedicated to his fans, but he first needs a tester to see if it will be re

But anyhoo, shelling my own AU aside, everyon noW GO GIVE ATHENA SOME M A S S I V E LOVE FOR DOING AMAZING ON THIS A N D JUST DOING FANTASTIC ART IN GENERAL GO GO GO N O W -

Also give Buttheart some love she's right there on the desk. ....that is all that's the only thing thay matters honestlY-

[markipliers-madhouse]

EY

YOU STARVED FROM MY AU CONTENT??

WHICH I HAVEN'T WORKED ON IN MONTHS??

WELL HERE *CHUCKS RIGHT OUTTA THE BLUE*

But yeah I honestly am very much sorry for neglecting this blog for so long, and there's many reasons to that that I'll try and adress in another post sometime later, bUT MAKE NO MISTAKE!! I am not abandoning it, it's actually...getting some refurbishments so to say! Not gonna go too into detail right now, so for now let's just say...things may be looking a little different here from now on...
