Zinc

I draw and write sometimes

[spikes-zn]

Hello guys !!!

Hi, I’m Zinc, but you can also call me Rene. I go by any pronouns, and I’m gender fluid and pan.

I will most likely just post art here every once in a while when I actually draw a good piece.

My current fandoms !!!

* Cyberpunk 2077

* Baldur’s gate 3 / DnD in general

* Dispatch

* Arcane

* Deltarune

* Across the spider verse

Art boundaries !!!

* If you want to use my art as a pfp or repost it, just credit me and I’ll be fine with it

* If you want to repost it on another platform, credit me

* My socials on anything is spikes_zn or spikes-zn

* My inbox is open if you want to discuss anything involving using my art. As long as you’re sane and rational and polite. If not then ur getting blocked.

All of my art is tagged as #spikesznart if you wanna find it quickly :)

I’m a punk metalhead, and mainly listen to metal, electronic and jungle music. I like artists such as She Wants Revenge, Soad, Korn, And One, KMFDM, Hottub, stuff like that.

Fuck trump, fuck ICE, fuck putin, fuck bigots, fuck nazis, ACAB, fuck AI “art”. If you support any of these things or are any of these things do not interact with my page. I do not want to hear you.

Free Palestine, free Congo, free Sudan, free Ukraine. If there’s any other things you think I should spread awareness about, please educate me. I am happy to learn and to improve.

Your spiky friend, Zn

New drawing alert!! I tried doing some editing with my drawings for the first time and it was quite fun!!

Here is another version without all the fancy shmancy editing:

I feel like such a larper though I know barely anything about nier automata I just thought she looked hella cool; I guess that’s a sign to actually go play the game if I decided to spend a decent amount of hours on this thing.

TW: BLOOD

Piece of vent art that ended up weirdly banging. But yeah exam season is here and I am not immune, alas. But just know I have been drawing and I am not dead (hooray !)

[spikes-zn]

Who need to study for exams in.. *checks date * a month or so when you can instead paint a shirt from my beloved cyberpunk 2077

When I got this shirt my 1st playthrough I genuinely fell in love with this shirt and was like “I need this irl” so here we are

Is there a back design I can paint ? Yeah, yeah there is. Am I bothered to paint it ? … nahhhhhhhhh :P

[isnortworms]

Boy why you so 😀

I was genuinely 1 step away from actually crashing out and this text just. Stopped me in my path.

I hope this conveyed my absolute utter sense of confusion and dismantlement at reading that text

Zinc’s guide to dispatching (done right)

[Part 2]

Episode 1 - tutorial shift

So the first shift is a tutorial, meaning it is the easiest shift to both do and write about. Since it’s not tied to any routes you can take with the z-team, I can post this right now.

There’s no character builds, there’s no synergies, there’s no level ups. It’s nice and simple, the only thing you have to worry about is timings.

I’ve tested a few different combos, and this is the one that I’ve found works the best (at least to my knowledge). I will aim to get above 80% in every mission in order to consider it successful.

This will be in bullet point form, I might change it to a more readable table format later, but for now, this will stay a brain dump. So, let’s get started.

The general layout for each mission is:

- Mission name - hero(es)

^ percentage

^ extra notes

This will change when the z team gets introduced due to the differing builds.

Do NOT be afraid to wait till the very last second for some missions. Sometimes you even need to wait for everyone to rest in order to have best odds at winning the mission.

Shift 1

- Assault on Criminal Hideout! - Phenomoman

^ 80%

- Investigate dorm room - Brainbook + equilibrium

^ 100%

- Art exhibit opening - Sweetalker

^ Will get interrupted - choose “sprinkle in jokes”

- High speed chase - equilibrium and phenomaman

^ 100%

- Monster attack - pompom and brickhouse

^ 93%

- Attack on hospital - brainbook

^ Will get interrupted - choose special option

^ as SOON as this mission pops up, send her. Or else you won’t be able to send her for another mission.

- Grandma crossing road - brainbook

^ 94%

^ For these last missions, you will have to wait till the very end of the timer. That’s alright, time pauses when you are choosing a hero to dispatch and when you are doing the review. You can take a moment if it gets too stressful

- Negotiate with hostage takers - sweet talker and phenomaman

^ 100%

- Chase el diablito - pompom and brick house and equilibrium

^ 100%

Is this clear? Eh, not really. Will I make it look more aesthetically pleasing in the future? Yeah, probably. Will I make a masterlist of all the missions? Yeah, probably.

I am currently waiting on the results for which route you guys want me to write about. Once I get those in, I will try to make a full game guide for one route, and repeat the process with different routes.

If updates to this are slow, it’s because I’m back to school and this academic year is very exam-heavy for me. But I will not abandon this

See ya guys

Coupé + Waterboy

Coupé + Phenomaman

Voting ended onJan 9

This is who to keep and who to hire. So basically who will be on your team.

The original post details more details about my general ideas for a guide. Read it if you want more information and random brain dumps about the mechanics of the game.

Guide for Episode 1’s tutorial shift coming soon (once I organise my notes).

[thestarsareflowers]

Happy new year !!

Here’s my take on the Art Summary thing.

(You can probably see the shift in priorities. Anatomy then experimenting then big pieces then plain ol fun.)
