Ummm maybe sonas/ocs if that's okay? Do you know Vade? He's a voiceactor and he voiced SLYGM by Staringback and I adore his work! His voice is majestic <333
@vadeva I didn’t know he had a tumblr but yes I listen to his works. I watched the part 2 of the comic dub (illustrated by @ cursetale) and the quality was honestly one of the best I’ve seen within the voice acting/editing community! Thinking about it makes me feel like rewatching Undertale comic dubs again
Drawing I did for and of @vadeva I'm pretty happy with it, there are some tweaks and few things that I want to work on. Please do not repost and claim this are your own. Thank you.
So, on @tehrogue‘s discord serverm we were inspired by the picture of Fell!Rogue and started making other AUs of him. The first one suggested was Underswap, so I took up the duty and swapped him with @vadeva! The hair was supposed to look edgier, but *Vade voice* whatever.
My birthday is Valentine's Day so this is extra special coming from me. Here's to @starbotdubs and @vadeva my favorite voice actors. You guys are the ones who inspired me to put my voice to uses other than choral singing and screaming into the void. And to your loyal friend and protector @maxoutoften, I am happy to serve in your bean army. Cheers, and thanks for making me into a *determined person. (Also sorry Vade and Max...You're just as important. Asterisks and small text are totally coincidental...)
So, I went to MAGfest this past weekend and to say I had fun would be an understatement. I had an absolute blast! But this only happened because of the awesome people I hung out with.
This post ended up a bit lengthy with everything I want to say, despite trying to keep it concise, so I’ll leave the bulk of it under the cut.
My biggest highlight was the fact that I got to meet @maniaknight, @its-captain-senpai, @starbotdubs, @vadeva, @tehrogue, @officialvariantschannel, @maxoutoften, @xedramon, and @rainbowchibbit in person! Every single one of you are awesome people and deserve all the happiness in the world.
This being said, my entire con experience was vastly different from what I was expecting. This was not my first time going to MAGfest, but I’ll admit now that I had some very sour notes left over from previous years - which made me hesitant on even going this year. However, when I heard several of you were going, I took a leap of faith and jumped back in. Just having a chance to meet all you wonderful people in person outweighed all the bad memories that were associated with the con for me. Then, when ManiaKnight invited me to the meet-up dinner, I was excited to meet y’all for sure, but... I figured that would be it. That we’d go our separate ways for the rest of the con and maybe chat a bit online here and there after the weekend. I expected to experience this con relatively alone aside from the meet-up and to let this be my last MAGfest. I’ll admit, this was a highly pessimistic view from someone who’s normally an optimist. However, I didn’t want to be a downer in any way so I pushed all that away and went to the con with the intent to enjoy the time I had with y’all, however much or little it would be, depending on what you guys wanted to do.
But now that y’all know where I’m coming from, let’s get to the happier part of this whole thing, shall we? Because the whole point here is that I’m glad I took that leap of faith and decided to give MAGfest one more try. And I’m very happy that my pessimistic expectations were wrong.
MAGfest started for me on Thursday night when I hung out with ManiaKnight for a couple hours and got my badge for the con. Even though we just wandered around and chatted, I did have fun and this really set a positive mood for the weekend for me.
I had to go to work during the day Friday, but meeting everyone in person at dinner Friday night was an absolute treat. Y’all were all so wonderful and fun to hang out with as we chatted and experienced the Magfest Pickle Fever of 2017 (of which I wrote a small report here XD). After dinner, I had fun hanging with Star, Rogue, Max, and Vade before going and playing games and hanging out with ManiaKnight, Xedra, and Captain.
And then on Saturday I had a blast getting kidnapped hanging out, playing games, and going to the Undertale fan movie trailer premier with Vade, Star, Rogue, Walker, and Max. It was also nice seeing Chibbit for a bit on Saturday night during the Undertale photoshoot!
Sunday, oh Sunday. That VA Workshop panel was such a blast, especially when Star got picked to go up and do a reading! (Star, keep going, you have Ellen and Matt’s approval!) I still smile thinking back to that panel and I’m definitely going to take all the advice that the VAs gave us to heart as I slowly dive into VAing myself.
This weekend was incredible and I could go on forever with how much fun I had. But at the end of the day, every single one of y’all who I’ve tagged in this post helped wiped those sour notes away and redeemed MAGfest for me. Lots of photos, videos, recordings, and memes were made and y’all really made my con experience the best I’ve had in a while. I’m very much looking forward to (hopefully) hanging out with all y’all at MAGfest next year, if not sooner at another con!
Given all this, my biggest thanks goes to ManiaKnight for inviting me to that dinner to begin with. Seriously. If not for you, I wouldn’t have made all these wonderful new friends and memories. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you Mania. I feel bad that the snow storm cut your trip short, but hopefully next time you’ll be able to stay the whole weekend!
Thanks again to all of you who made this weekend absolutely wonderful! You’ve also helped recharge me and pull me out of my creative slump and I hope y’all will enjoy what I’ll be making in the coming weeks. And until we meet again, take care! ^_^
Well it’s been quite the year and well all lot of bad things happened (for me most were very personal) there were good things. And when I say good things I mean good people. Scratch that amazing people! These people helped me get through the year so that I would see this new one (even if the year is already starting bad for me). And even though I may not know a lot of them personally I still want to personally thank each and everyone of them. (Also I can draw better than this sorry)
@srpelo - Thank you for making me laugh till my stomach began to hurt. Every “shitpost” be the best post. And I will never stop slamming my desk and saying “OH BOI” thanks to you.
UltimaAlmighty - The only reaction channel done right. You are a such a positive person in a negative world. When you smile I can’t help, but smile back. Your sincerity won’t go unnoticed. (I know you will probably never see this, but I couldn’t not include you.)
@vadeva - Thanks for being the British man of Starbot Dubs. Your voice is so much fun to listen to and makes me wish I had a low awesome voice too. I can’t wait to see what you and Stephanie do next! (I also really wanna see your audition video).
@rahafwabas - Thanks for filling my dash with angst! You are an amazing artist. You taught me how bad and angst life can be, but to every bad side there’s a good that’ll be worth the pain. (Also short people for life!)
@jakei95 - Thank you for your creativity! You are such a nice and beautiful person. (Sucks that I couldn’t draw you like that… I can draw better I swear!) Cross and Underverse is just too awesome not to love. You taught me that making something new out of other’s ideas and turning it into your own can lead to finding your own new thing! You have encouraged me to do a lot more with myself as well as my art.
@jokublog - Thank you for sharing your hopes and dreams! Every time I see a picture of Dream I always smile (same is for Nightmare, but it’s an evil smile). Your art is so beautiful with its colors and flow. And even when others put you down you scare them away by getting back up again doing what you love. (Also you and Jakei be adorable together)
@loverofpiggies - Thank you for your amazing comics and snazzy pink hair! I love Aftertale and Geno since I connected to him in a sad way that Geno actually felt to be a real “person”. You also taught me that even if you’re known for one thing it’s good to make your own thing. And that being Gloomverse. One of the greatest things I’ve ever read in the entirety of one night (I was that hooked). In fact it encouraged to to start my own comic and punch anxiety in the face!
@hawker-rawr - Thank you for making me laugh at a drunk man (and questioning what kind of drunk I’d be)! You are such a cool artist and I love your take on Chara and Asriel. I fell in love with them all over again. So excited to see whatever you do next. (StarHawk ftw)
@camilaart - Thank you for playing with my emotions! I love GlitchTale so far and am pumped to see what happens next. You are an amazing storyteller and an awesome nerd at heart. I so happy that everyone got together when things got tough. Me from being from a poor household myself I know what it’s like. May all good things come to you and your family. (I also just wanna point out that I totally called Betty, like I screamed at the school computer when Sans died like my gosh I hate-love her!)
@starbotdubs - Thank you for sharing your beautiful voice (and face). You are an amazing voice actress and introduced me into so many comics I’d come to love so much. I’m so excited to see what 2017 brings for your channel (especially you guys dining Gloomverse, like I screamed that my dog jumped 2 feet into the air I was so excited). May you, Vade, and your channel become greater than it already is. (DEUS VULT)
@popelickva and The Real-Time Fan Dub Cast - Thank you for making me giggle like a baby during class. Your gravity falls series and dubs never fail to make me smile. And even though I miss nearly every stream because of timezones, I can’t help but feel determined to try and watch it. (You guys also got me into Voltron and made me obsessed)
@manontheinternet - Thank you for the music! Music has always been apart of my life, especially musicals. I play a couple instruments and like to sing, but not a lot of people even know since I have a literal panic attack whenever I try Iin front of people. So turning a game I’m still obsessed with into a musical which I’m already obsessed with is amazing! Every singer/actor is superb and you feel what the character is feeling. I can’t help, but to always sing along. I’m stoked to have found you so that I may be able to listen to greatness. (Listening to you guys sing seem to always calm me down)
@nekophy - Thank you for being so adorable it’s adorable (which is weird to say since you’re older than me)! You may, if not are, the biggest Poth (and/or Geno x Reaper) shipper I have ever seen. Your art is so cute as well as your reactions to every piece of art you receive. You are a fantastic stick cat Miss Nekophy. And an awesome mother to a certain Goth. (Also tried to draw a kinda “human” you but looks bad so I’m sorry!)
@knittinggiantbeanies - Thank you for being a source of positivity! You as well as your following feel like a safe warm hug. You are so beautiful (much more than me by an immense amount because you’re so gorgeous). I’ve been here ever since Bill’s birthday video and am glad I stayed. You even introduced me to some of my now best friends in your Undertale stream. And I’ve never felt so close to those who are so far. I cannot thank you enough for that.
@chongoblog - Thank you for filling my dash in memes and references I still don’t understand! Never stop because you’re an All Star.
@superyoumna - You are a literal wizard with a mouse! You’ve showed me that even with limited resources you can still make something great (heck all I had to draw on was napkins and printer paper till this Christmas). Your art is almost as beautiful as you are. But your talent is so great I don’t think anything can compare. (I just now realized how many Undertale blogs I have on here)
@thatsthat24 - Thank you for being the king of 6 seconds. You spread positivity like a wildfire and smiles like a tsunami. You have an amazing voice and proved to all parents out there that watching cartoons is not only for kids, it’s for child-like adults as well. I love how you can turn my most depressing day just a little happier. (All the guys, gals, and non-binary pals love you bro)
The rest of these people are not in the drawing because I don’t know what they look like, forgot to add them, was lazy, or are personal friends:
@linnttop - You are an amazing artist and goofball. Im so happy I met you and that we made our friendship work despite the 11 hour time difference (Living on the other side of the world sucks man). But the fact you even tried to stay with me is truly inspiring. I shouldn’t even be worth your time, but you still do even if it’s short and sweet.
@straberrysoup aka Hotdogs - The oldest of the group yet you never act like it! She’s the yin to my orangutan. Your art is adorable as well as your face. I hope your glasses come in soon!
@mclov3ly101 - Such an amazing artist all around always getting better and better. No one in our group (or probably ever) will ship more people than you do. You have the look that turns girls lesbian and gay guys straighter than a stripping pole. I can’t wait to see what your Reaper comic has to offer. (Sportarobbie)
@chariskreplies aka Sans - Always in the shadows watching and sending things to the wrong chat. You’ll pop in and everyone’s happy when you do. Never stop punning EVER.
@shitpilot and every other Voltron blog I follow - Thank you for helping keep Voltron on my dash so that its not entirely Undertale and TF2.
@comyet - Thank you for creating my favorite Sans of all time! Ink is my spirit skeleton and I love it. Also your art is incredible! I would totally buy your stuff if I had the money. NEVER stop doing what you do because you’re just too awesome to stop now. ( I can’t wait till you come back from your hiatus.)
@kenzykills - The one always asking me to draw yaoi for her shrine. You are the pervert yaoi shipper we all know and love. Thanks for making Japanese and science more “interesting”. (Stop asking for smut)
@quelloz - Thank you for making sure I don’t get too out of control. You are beautiful and an awesome friend. And I won’t rest until I get you with your lady love! I’LL HIT HER SO HARD WITH YOUR LOVE SHE’LL NEVER SEE IT COMING! (Raquello Raphaelo Ze Bastard Ze III :) Elizabeth Gurrrrero)
There’s no way I can thank all of you enough.2016 wasn’t the best year for me. Due to anxiety, depression, numbness, and a family member rushing in and out of the hospital. I doubt myself a lot saying I’m not pretty or my art is trash when i should have more of a positive outlook on myself, but it’s hard to when your parents tell you stuff like that every day. If it weren’t for every single one of these amazing people I don’t think I’d be alive today. I may not know all of them personally, but without them even knowing they helped me a lot. Even some of my friends that I mentioned are so close to my heart, but so far away for a hug. I love each and everyone of you and am looking forward to everything you do from here. Not just because you’re all amazing and talented, but because you give me something to live for. Thank you.
