SWEET BUT BRITTLE

“(…) Like an arrangement made in Heaven, not even drudgery was able to choke our spirits. (...) However, even that would be sent to the chopping block, as my obsolescence loomed closer while my bottom line took a big dip into the reds…” — Spam

Well, it's a me again. I couldn't finish the pic on time yesterday so I tried my best to commit to learn how to paint glass today, and wanted to turn the practice into a concept-art of the characters of my visual-novel (even if it's just symbolical in its cute stylization). I think my glass material didn't turn out too shabby 🤔 It was worth the attempt though! 😅

If you don't know yet, is Sears (Blue Addison) and Spamton from before when they both lived together as room-mates, because Spamton back in then couldn't afford his own flat with his dwindling savings and Sears allowed him to crash in his apartment, up until the day their circle of co-workers/friends split with Spamton, prompting him to leave behind that part of the city and one of his best friends forever 😬

The rest is history.

I haven’t been on here for long, but I’m hoping for a good future. And to get there, we kind of need a multiverse. So @tatatale, having my boy send you his Dreams! He might not have much Hope himself, but he has enough Dreams to make up for it! His friends are providing the Hope. Hope it doesn’t suck too much-

[[SUPPLANTATION]]

Desperation produces [[THE STRANGEST OF BEDFELLOWS]]… — Spwatchton

I keep practicing art, against my own best judgement, as it is 3:35 AM already as I type.

If there is something I know is that I need to keep practicing how to convey the concept of the protagonist of the AU. Spamton and Swatch work together in the same body in an uneasy truce, but all the other characters only see the head butler, which is a very convenient disguise for someone who will do everything to survive deletion.

This was another concept art of how Swatch looked without the mask. He still retains some of his former feral traits, but are more tame compared to his original EXCEPTION form, monsters that were queued for deletion as they were driven mad by pure undiluted Chaos when the Dark Fountain turned their original forms into Darkners.

This time it just shows how the mask (created by Tasque Manager to curb the feral nature of Swatch) actually hides a more fearsome countenance. His body is Darkness (as all Darkners are) sequestering all the colours of the light inside his body. With the mask on, all that storm of light gets balanced and his thoughts gets clearer, returning him to a more polite and suave demeanour (or as Tasque Manager would say, to a more "ORDERly manner"). Tasque Manager is charged to keep an eye out for him all the time, and to perform maintenance on the mask now and then to make sure the virus inside Swatch didn't manage to damage it.

I also learnt a little how to make the rainbow in him to look more hand-made and less procedural. At first I was using gradients, but it didn't look right to me so I made the stripes by hand. It was a nice experience to have 😊

It's been another while since I uploaded something. The animation is going slow as I'm also multitasking with commissions, and I just wanted to burn steam doing something else that sprung in my mind. Just an overly-stylized Spwatchton with a weird background experiment, nothing too fancy. I'm still brainstorming about how to represent the Creation powers he shares with Swatch 🤔

((edited because I forgot a few tags -- you know what? let's add something more in-line with the visual novel conceptualization -- Spamton after the data hijacking still can't forget certain things from his past (like the Angel) and that still haunts him and produces monsters inside his dreams and sometimes by accident during their waking hours. Good thing that the head butler is there to pull the leash on Spamton in order to avoid him to fall to the amounting ruin of his past self, least they both fall together into the abyss, and Swatch the last thing he wants is to lose the only thing that keeps the monster inside himself at bay 👀))

Want your Deltarune with a bit more horror? Wondering why a random child became a hero of prophecy! Then welcome to ZomRune!

In ZomRune, Kris isn't the hero but rather the one using their body! The original hero of prophecy was a Darkner that the Roaring Knight killed in their last confrontation along with their companions, to which Ralsei tried to resurrect. But the heroes souls refused, instead opening a pathway to allow another to take their place. One where a certain lizard and human find themselves in!

Since another soul was put into the body, one of light, the effects of the resurrection failed in some ways, resulting in them being brought back as undead! Using the bodies of dead heroes as their own, Kris and Co. must save the dark world while controlling their undead urges.
