Execute me immediately. Cannot muster even the weakest focus for work with objects on the mind. The infection is back. Goodbye literally every other fandom, cfmot sealed the deal.
(Bonus of this worried kitty on New Year's)
While I'm here the way the accent marks moved was so creature of him. They put so much into the latest episode. Also I believe they changed the line weight in his eyes so it looks more like eyeliner now
Also. Look how sharp his stars got here. I have no idea if this is accidental (as a result of whatever animating process they have) or on purpose (indication of mood/state/otherwise), but I choose to believe the second.
Here's them normally (from the same ep)
And there's a version with thin lines. I imagine it's similar to the crinkle Kratcy sometimes has methinks.
WHATEVER WHATEVER THIS IS MESNT TO BE MY ART BLOG. Bye.
Rare new post. Can't justify an ibis subscription to myself anymore, so I'm on magma for now
Also caved in to Deltarune hype. It's truly infectious. Notes for the notes & links to the magma under cut.
Tricked you!!
First thing is actually a wip for a completely different game Now, onto the Deltarune notes!!
One of my very favorite things to do is imagine customs for species (?) with no reason to have any. Like, the Addisons are just ads, and in canon, they're perfectly humanoid and can be assumed to have similar fashion & junk.
But if we're making them birds... what's so wrong with a little discussion of how they treat their wings? (Obviously, stuff like preening, but I more so mean how they decorate.)
I don't know a lot about birds and their behaviors, but I do know that usually bigger = better. Try and create the illusion of size. Cats do it by puffing up their fur, birds do it by spreading their wings and/or tail feathers. So, if you can artificially boost intimidation, you use it. (Especially if it's flashy and makes you seem prettier than other birds). Thus, feather extensions, clip-on strings, maybe even dye to add more color, all seem like an obvious route to go down.
To go back to the shifting feather patterns thing, I presented it as being for business, but it would also be to facilitate mating (whatever that means here), so I can imagine they might cover their arms (wings?) more for decency... It's not inherently obscene, more like someone being shirtless. It's inappropriate because of what it can be associated with.
Moving on,
Spamton specifically. I like people depicting him as some kind of addison "runt." Mainly with size, but thin/missing feathers (over preening) can not be helping his case.
I don't think I wrote it down anywhere, but him going from having glasses -> not -> having them again is mainly a result of him wanting to distance himself from his past, and then eventually trying to turn back to it to regain some of his former self.
He needed glasses all the way up until he became a puppet, just chose to ditch them for TV appearances. He probably told himself it was to seem less "nerdy" in public appearances. And no, he didn't use contacts. He just followed his benefactor blindly. :]
Speaking of him lying to himself & the benefactor,
I don't have much to say here other than that his current form is really oily and gross, and most of his remaining busted up feathers poke through the joints of his body. Dyed & then burned permanent black, mayhaps. That or he had it replaced so he didn't have to keep dying it again & again...
I like to think that after the first thing [his benefactor] changed without his consent, Spam started spiraling, choosing to ask for some parts of him to be replaced outright to gain some semblance of control. A sort of manic power trip as he tried to convince himself he hadn't made a mistake in this particular deal. He could see his life going downhill slowly, could guess at the inevitable crash, but turned away from it anyway.
And yeah, I did originally mean to draw his eyes as those kinda creepy ones that bulge out of the doll's head and have closing eyelids for some reason. And yes, I gave up, that is why the two lines are there instead.
But I kind of like it like that. Whether or not he still had eyes after becoming a puppet fully, he scratched at them/where they would be. Either to try to carve out a new set or to dig out he ones already in there and throw them away,,
Lowk forgot to mention I personally like to believe he slowly lost his original body over time.
As for this... yes, it's because I wanted to see them next to each other. Yes, it's cause I ship them. I'm a poor fool at heart who wants for nothing more than to see two people who would be absolutely downright horrific for each other try it out. Might draw some actual ship art sometime soon now that this is done.
THAT is NOT the point. The point is that despite being deathly afraid of intimacy, Spamton will grab someone or throw his arm over their shoulder without hesitation. It's another habit with the point of getting control because the best way to avoid feeling vulnerable is to put another person down. But that's just in casual environments.
The moment real emotions or tension get involved, he is gone. Does not matter. No second guessing. If it's closeness because of a want to be close to another rather than to show physical power in a situation, it defeats the purpose.
I'm gonna pet my leslie and continue this/tag everything tomorrow.
Awake again! Lets finish this.
I don't really have much else to say other than that this fandom has dragged me in against my will. I haven't really been following deltarune up until now, but it did the same thing Undertale did and showed me so much content that I was gradually swallowed up by it (sinkhole style.) I'm still a fake fan, I don't have the game, and honestly, I don't plan to watch a FULL playthrough, but I will engage with addison/spamtenna stuff. Plus, the aus ;]
As promised;
Create, brainstorm and collaborate on a shared canvas in real-time
Create, brainstorm and collaborate on a shared canvas in real-time
And again, feel free to draw over stuff/draw your own junk if you want. Don't really know why you would, but it's an option.
As much as I love eternal sugar, I procrastinated a lot in making this. Any further refinement and I would've never finished. This will have to be good enough.
The notes are just a snippet of Amazing Grace since I don't really know many harp solo songs. Nor do I know ANYTHING about music & sheet music in general.
I'll either continue the break in posting or post whatever I draw during the day
More under cut
Shoutout my roblox avatar (follow the link on my strawpage if you're truly curious, I have NO ROOM for unnecessary images)
Also, shout out my revamped strawpage and a few other drawings from within my art block (made of trepidation)
I don't have room to post these individually, so take the OCs I made for a show by a defunct company that sucks for several reasons (RWBY) (Judgemental Critter became my background for drawing for a long time)
