this took sooooooo long to do it was honestly agonizing trying to figure out what i wasnted to do and the placement of everything and HONESTLY im not super proud of this really, but i think it still looks you know, ok? I have (what is pretty much) aphantasia, but sometimes when im creatively motivated, images can flash into my mind. this is one of those pieces, but because of the aphantasia, i cant just "pull it up" again to look at. such is the struggle of being an artist who has that...
I GOT MY BUGS IN THE MAIL!!!!! yaaaaaay
Originally, I had wanted to tape venus to the wall but unfortunately big ass helmet saved her from that fate (she kept toppling over, i guess ill need to go get duct tape LOLOL)... She is spared, for now
a sort of "review" under the cut
my thoughts are that theyre both well made and very very soft! the only thing (and you can kinda see it here,) are the psychopomp's antenna are like very very bent, but i think its a fact that they were shipped in a bag and the antenna are felt (i think?) so it's not really a manufacturing error, just the fact that they took a long time to get here, and of course since theres no support inside of them (why would there be,) they got bent weird. I'll have to fix them!
I'm also a little bummed cause they cant hold hands well, due to their velcros being on the same hand (their right, our left) but it wasn't an advertised feature soo expected. They can, however, obviously swap weapons! thats fun, and cool.
Overall i'd give them a 10/10! they look as advertised and anything that is "wrong" is only personal preference or caused by shipping, so im not gonna dock it for that. yays
drawing of venus with her plushie. I had wanted to do it while the second campaign was going on, but i never found the energy to.. Oh well! I got it done now. I think the plush is silly and when it gets here i Am taping it to my wall so it cannot escape.
A more proper drawing of Midori from Dashbored, since whenever I draw her she just comes out right. Turns out i was right, and it came out good again. I love her design, and I think she has the most beautiful eyes ~ (●ˇ∀ˇ●) Because of this, a maskless version is presented under "Read More", In case youve not finished the game and dont want to be spoilered on how she looks when she removes her mask.
Also, I gave her a tooth gap because I think that she looks pretty with one!
Happy birthday, Karbonic! ( @fadingclub )
This post comes at a pretty late time i think, so im sorry u_u
I'll be a bit more mushy under the cut about the fading club games... sorry to anyone who reads it, I'm not that well spoken and my thoughts ping-pong.
...Originally I was going to be mushy on my birthday (april 4th, since it helped me have time to collect my thoughts and be less anxious about posting this,) about the games, but what better time than now to be a bit gushy... This gets a bit personal but I would scream if I PM'd It.
I really, really adore the Fading Club franchise. I've yet to play DREAMWILD (at least not past the first level but thats because im really bad at games like dreamwild), or Nashbored, But I have played Dashbored (I got the city ending so I'll have to go back for the rest,) but how i found out about the works was through an oddheader video where he covered Psychopomp (pre-gold). I really adored the artistic style of the game, so i dropped the oddheader video to just.. go watch a playthrough. I'm a very timid person, so it was really the only way I could feel okay consuming it without getting nauseously scared. Throughout the playthrough, I had sort of attached myself to our Main Character, Venus. I'd already been using Venus as a name beforehand which was silly, so to see that as a commonly accepted alias for her.. it only made my connection to the character stronger. I felt like I had been truly seen through her, even despite the gruesome nature of Psychopomp and then, GOLD.
I was going through an awful relationship with my ex, cleaver, at the time too, so I had fallen back on this crafted world often to feel alright. It wasnt healthy for sure, but it... really saved me from killing myself. I really cannot thank you, Karbon, enough, for that.. And I don't think I ever will be able to really repay you for such light in a very bleak time, aside from much patronage and continued recommendation of your content.
It's so interesting to have games be that touching. I don't think any other experience truly made me feel as seen as Psychopomp. I really am excited for Mechana and Psychopomp 2, and any other projects that may come out. I hope you will be well for many, many, times to come.
bit of a silly question, but what anime does Nic like?? we know he hates moeshit....
The truth is that he loves Moe anime. He loves cutesy cute Moeblob anime and finds comfort in that sort of fluff.
There's a big Moe poster up in his room at the end of the game, after all. Nic is a very guarded and embarrassed person at the beginning of the game, part of his journey is overcoming that.
