made a textmode art of some Vylet Pony characters (specifically based on the album Carousel)

I randomly remembered that textmode art was a thing the other week and decided I needed to draw Creekflow with it.

I used the Commodore 64 character set + color palette but tbh next time I do something like this I'll probably just make my own color palette cause the palette I used really wasn't that good for drawing these characters.

This was sort of based on the story stuff that corresponds with Bass Cannon and originally I also used some lyrics from Bass Cannon but I decided to change it to lyrics from The Carrion Child because the original lyrics I chose didn't really fit with the drawing very much. Although The Carrion Child also has a lot of stuff in it that could be really interesting to draw so maybe I'll do something based on that sometime.

Anyways here's some WIP stuff from this since I spent maybe too long on it.

The first image is a little thing i drew over a screenshot to try and help figure out how to get the expressions and stuff to work better. When I did this I was almost done with the full thing though.

The second image is what would have originally been the final thing. But I didn't like how Lulamoon looked in it in like a lot of different ways so I eventually just decided to fully redraw her. Tbh I do think I like the original better in some ways but the newer one is a lot better overall.

The third image is an older version where I had the original lyrics I was going to use. The background also is much emptier.

Anyways posting this so that I don't spend like another week just tweaking it.

NRK TEXT-TV PHOTO COLLECTION

i took a couple photos of text tv pages back in 2021. i can't easily access text-tv anymore and they're killing it dead forever on the 20th this month, i will try to see if i can hook my little philips tv from 2010 up to signal (it's the only tv in the house with a remote that has the teletext button) before then but i don't even know if i can. if i do, i shall take photos of every page i can, if i fail, the following photos are all i'll have left. mostly from the calendar page but a couple other ones too.

(i didn't capture may or july)

i do however have these:

a measly 42 years you became, they're practically killing you in the cradle, my dear sweet text-tv. at least i had the privilege of being your contemporary for 24 of them. my thanks to the editorial staff for keeping it going as long as they did, i'll miss the wonderful words and text art. an era is coming to an end and it is tragic. in the age of the internet, never again will information be broadcast in such an easy, accessible and concise format. soon, it'll have been a beautiful thing. if you're norwegian, take the chance to appreciate it while it still is. snap a few photos, you'll probably never see it again. and if you do, consider sharing them with me. i want more to remember it by.
