Ha sido una pasada poder completar este #octobit2020. Quiero agradecer a @brunopixels su pasión, las ganas que transmite y ese pedazo de lista de temas que nos ha proporcionado. 

Voy a intentar mantener este ritmo de práctica hasta el año que viene. ¡Deseadme suerte!

I had a blast drawing for this year's #octobit2020! I want to thank @brunopixels for the challenging prompt list and for the engagement he generates. I'll definitely push myself to keep practicing until next year! [31/31] - Custome

the essential correlation between taako and red mage

[aerosolsprite]

been fucking around in a picrew some more and. here have my 8 Bit Theater College Au

i’ve already posted this pic, but:

Damien (black mage)

no surname

chemistry major!

he has a ✨traumatic backstory✨ that i will bring up later if at all

always has his hood up and face covered. he has a led visor thingy that he can remote-control into diff expressions.

yes the back of his head is bald. it’s one big burn scar but the picrew didnt have that. he blew up an rv. (this is related to the Traumatic Backstory)

deeply in denial about being bi

closeted trans man but like. as in he does his best to make sure everyone assumes he’s a cis man. except for binding because you may as well get some killer tits out of the whole thing <- his reasoning

Hanna Karwoski (red mage)

fucking NERD

english literature major (probably. havent quite decided.)

“the world is a simulation guys i promise”

when they actually go outside (about once a blue moon) he wears a red fedora and matching trenchcoat. gets called carmen sandiego on a regular basis.

twitch streamer. why? no reason.

her bird is named chocobo

albino!

bit of a weeb if we’re being honest

Leopold Fell (thief)

law major

you do not want him as a roommate i am so so serious

all your food is belong to him

this is leo. leo legally owns your personal space.

pretentious swindly fuck

british

dyes his hair

likely born into some form of money, but he’s not keen to share and VERY keen to take yours

Kennan McArthur (fighter)

undecided major as of right now, feel free to suggest some!

the following is copy-pasted from my ramblings to jay:

SWEETEST ANGEL ALIVE. IF YOU THREATEN HIS BESTIE YOU HAVE APPROX. TWELVE SECONDS TO REINVENT YOURSELF AND LEAVE THE CONTINENT OR YOU WILL NOT LIKE THE HOSPITAL BILLS

HES LIKE IF A GOLDEN RETRIEVER WAS BUILT LIKE A LINEBACKER AND HAD AN UNBREAKABLE BOND WITH GODS MOST FUCKED UP MEOW MEOW

THE GIRLS AND THE GAYS LOVE HIS TOOTH GAP (NOT PICTURED)

undiagnosed adhd

the collar is something damian gave him as a joke (“you act like a puppy”) but it unironically looks cute on him

texan? possibly?

Lyndall Nightingale (white mage)

med student

so. overworked.

basically canon white mage but a buff texan lesbian

adopts stray ANYTHING. baby raccoon on the streets? not for long, she’s raising and domesticating that sucker.

couldnt take her animals with her to college :,(

can technically be convinced to perform unqualified and illegal surgeries in the classroom at night but it is Difficult (and dont spread it around)

Raine Desmond (Drizz’l)

idk if he even goes to their college. maybe.

him and thief are exesssssss~

he acts like he thinks they separated on good terms. they did not.

they broke up due to an… incident regarding his pet spiders. more specifically, EGG SACS. iykyk.

bleaches his hair

also bri’ish

probably some kind of fucky gender but honestly he doesn’t really care right now

aaaaaaand thats all i got! i do have some assorted stories in the works but in all likelihood that’s where they’ll stay.

8BT Epilogue Designs Ranked

10/10 she is gorgeous and the design adds to her sprite without contradicting it. I also appreciate how she's like. Feminine. But not hypersexualized. Things like this shouldn't have to be praised but I just Love Her.

9/10 didn't have to go this extra for Red Mage but they did. He is over all gorgeous but loses a point for being more of a twunk than a twink.

8/10 love the dragon helmet but a guy who accidently stabs people and then invites them into his home should not look this stoic

6/10 he looks absolutely regal and I love his pointy boots but the mustard cape isn't really doing much for him. Also did they make him look like Adoring Fan on purpose???

2/10 ugly enough but 1. he's way too tall for his sprite 2. He's way too intimidating to warrant the others making fun of him so often and 3. His face is non-eucludian but in this design it is literally a square, one of the most euclidean things out there

-9999/10 absolutely not nope nope nope nope nope that face with those hands ew and his arms and legs are unprotected too oh god this Fighter is a walking disaster

What are your other favorite ships from 8 bit theater? I'm curious.

Hoo boy.

Let me preface this by saying that I'm pretty much okay with any 8bt ship and I do ship a vast number of them, but I really hate shipping WM with anyone or seeing her shipped. She is married to the universe! She took on a charge to defend fate and heal the world and she ain't gonna let anything get in her way!

So moving on to what I do ship, I am first and foremost a sucker for BM x Fighter. But it's pretty much exclusive to the post-canon AU I've made in my head in which they fight some more and work out their differences and Fighter gets help and BM actually tries to be a better person (to Fighter specifically) because oh no, he actually possesses love for one thing in existence and it's this big dumb redhead who gave him chance after chance and protected him and holds him in his big strong arms and ughhhhh I could go on for days

I have a strong affinity for RM x Thief as detailed in the last post

I also kind of like BM x Thief??? Just the idea of this real dignified Elf Prince having a little feral gremlin that can kill an elf with an insult at his side and they just have this hatelove thing but if anything can bring them together, its genocide.

Also BM x RM because wizards. Let's just assume that I ship all of the LWs with each other.

Drizz'l x Vilbert is always fun. If you really think about it Vilbert is just this normal teenager personality-wise and Drizz'l grew up living in a cave and training in spider kenshido and trying to topple an empire. Both of their dads are dead thanks to the LWs and they're so opposite from each other I just can't help but want them to interact and learn from each other.

BM x Dragoon. Kind of a crack ship but hey. They're both stab happy and they were both tricked by the same dragon. Idk I'll actually get into it if you want me to but for now I'll just leave it on the table.

Berserker x Ranger, all that needs to be said.

I’m sure there’s more I’m forgetting but that’s the jist of it. I’m glad to go into detail with any of them and I’m okay with any ship that doesn’t involve WM so yeah.
