i turned 28 yesterday

here's a doodle of the duo, they took the crew's weapons to look cool it's only fair, they're the ones that upgrade the crew's weapons eventually.

sorry i got distracted the past few months.

and then i got great food for the 10th anni in Game of Dice. i got a new Dr. X alt :) he hates me, he took so much of my future Ion alt savings to upgrade him

and there isn't much reason i need to update constantly on an AU that was revived to process my grief. my motivation ebbs and flows cause of that my therapy is this AU, and listening to time travel and brand new days remix and disconnected and sedum on a repeat rotation. some of the songs i associate with this AU. yes i have a playlist

[eddsworldstuck]

my writing for this au goes off and on quite a bit cause grief is weird and makes it hard to write sometimes even tho reviving this au was due to it being a good way to process my grief due to one of the story's main conflicts being a good reflection of how i feel in my grief.

so it has been awhile since i've written anything. i've had ideas of what to write, but haven't fully written it down.

but it's also cause it's like this.

but also game of dice and splatoon have been taking a lot of my attention but that's the usual lol

also have these i guess since these will be the main refs i have since they're easier to draw since they're simpler styles (finished god tier ones are already posted in their desktop bios)

these take lower priority from my other works tho like i have to make more thumbnail art for my game of dice youtube vids.

*holds out my hand, these lil guys are there* have new sprite edits

and a better look at them by zooming in on them in my psd file

and these were the old ones btw from *checks notes* 2014...

also here's the duo as a bonus

[eddsworldstuck]

my curse is that every good or funny doodle i make for ews (even memes i find), i can't share most of them here cause it practically spoils the story

[eddsworldstuck]

<- hasn't posted since their bday

oops

i've just been doing a lot offline and don't feel the need to share everything every time

anyway have some random sketches & doodles

old version of SA had an ahoge so i brought it back and asked Grey, who SA is based on, would one i should use. variations on placement and ahoge style. (F) is where the og ahoge was and was originally a heart. (B) is just putting it on the back instead of front. (Fia) was based on Fia from Game of Dice cause she has a perma heart ahoge. Grey said to use "reg ahoge (B)" so that's what SA has now.

prospit/derse doodles. the prev prospit/derse idea i had is kinda in limbo as this one was meant to be a new idea as it's better for showing off the duo and shows off the dream outfits better (for most of them). ...and i don't have to draw a full background of prospit/derse, just two tower rooms lol it's always been the duo being hesitant around the crew. the crew are a dysfunctional mess. bonus: i listen to moonlight serendipity and moonlight daydream a lot whenever i draw prospit/derse stuff for ews.

poses based on Aigis in the menu for P3R: Episode Aigis. still can't ever get used to saying Episode Aigis instead of The Answer... was sketch ideas for making new full body art for them (obviously not reference art. these would not be good references). was planning to have time & space related stuff in the bg for them (like RT having a looping soundwave being named rhythmicTimeloop and all, plus it's like a heartbeat). bonus: i listen to disconnected a LOT in general and when drawing for these two #1 in my spotify wrapped 2025 incoming. so of course i gotta reference episode aigis somewhere. i already used makoto's menu poses for the crew, so the duo has to get theirs through aigis.

sketches for working on simple refs. dream outfits were the first designed so they're the body base for everything.

i turned 27 yesterday

wow

anyway have some random ews doodles, mainly of RT who is still 16 while i'm 11 years older than her. it's early 2014 in the story rn

[eddsworldstuck]

it's october which means everything i do needs to be focused only on game of dice (it's the anniversary month).

i don't have much ews stuff to share, a lot of what i'm currently writing is literally future acts that i can't share most of.

anyway i've been listening to haven album by marianas trench on repeat and listening to disconnected from persona 3 reload the answer on repeat too. (pls don't make me call it episode aigis, the answer is too good of a name to use)

p3re: have this song, disconnected, which is very obviously about grief and how difficult it is to move on :) me: neat! *puts on repeat forever*

anyway how y'all doing :)

and have lil doodles where i was thinking about some weapon designs.

[eddsworldstuck]

i'm busy with Game of Dice stuff *looks directly at the thumbnail i need to draw and matches i recorded that i gotta look through to see if they're worth editing. then looks at the stuff i wanna write for Game of Dice*

i'm also like, waiting for the new Marianas Trench album, Haven, to release on the 30th this month cause i just know there's the chance i might change more chapter titles to the new songs lol. i'm pretty sure the act names are set in stone. last act and its chapters i don't see changing at all from what i already have.

like, the entire tracklist has been revealed but it also matters that the song itself and its lyrics fit to what i wanna name a chapter after (i spent a good hour or so looking through music i listen to for the original timeline act/chapter names before some got renamed).

...on a side note, guess who just changed another chapter name cause one of the songs randomly released and i just saw it appear on my Spotify randomly

that's 4 songs from Haven used for ews chapter names, help

also i just had the easiest time getting Brave Alfonse to +10 in feh and the tord yootooz i pre-ordered earlier in the year is gonna start shipping towards the end of this month i'm gonna hit him with a hammer /j

so august is a good month this year lol :)

anyway on a story note: A1C1 is almost done (not including time i'd set aside in wanting to get it beta read cause i frequently find mistakes after i post lol). but the main thing holding me back is still thinking about entry artifacts. i have the idea of what i want the artifacts to mean but thinking of what they will be and how they solve their puzzle holds me back lol.

anyway again, have these in the meantime

some excerpts from A1C1. it's just about the handles i made for the 4.

random bit from a future act & chapter cause their dynamic is just this to me. the sylph/RT is 🤏 always this close to strangling her fellow derse dreamers [you look closer and see my fingers are touching.]

rough sketches of prospit/derse stuff, using slightly redesigned versions of fancy dreamself outfits i've designed years ago. no i'm not sure if they actually wear these in the story itself or simple dreamself outfits instead, but i like these designs and wanna use them somewhere. idk when this one will finish. ...and also i have a game of dice piece i need to finish. all their designs is based on their class outfits in someway. Tom only kinda where it's mostly the cape and i kinda used something else as inspo. "what's the other inspo?" Captain Dr. X i guess you can consider this piece a successor to a very old prospit/derse piece i made in 2014. ...also i finally got the idea to make this after listening to moonlight daydream on repeat. altho it's a song that would fit the duo instead. no there is not a chapter named after this song, but i was real close on doing so lol.

and rough sketches of the fancy dreamself outfits of the duo cause why not. like the others, SA's outfit is based on her class outfit (Mage, fanon design). RT is the only one not based on her class and is being based on Filipino and Laotian fashion. with some added details. "why is she different?" cause the reason i had years ago when i designed my og idea for fancy dreamself outfits: i wanted Filipino and Laotian inspiration somewhere because i'm Filipino Laotian. this is one of the few times y'all can see her face. we also won't see their dreamselves in ews anyway cause they've already ascended/god tiered.
