#This is meant to be an FAQ/pinned post #jass rambles

Since there are questions coming in...

• No, I'm not back in UTMV fandom. I sorta fell out of it about three-or-so years ago, and I haven't regained interest in it.

"Palmtop Wonderland" exists because I thumbnailed the whole thing back in 2024, and it had been on my "Draw Later" list for years prior to that. It just happened to be a project I really wanted to make regardless of my involvement in the fandom.

I don't have any other UTMV-related works planned for the foreseeable future.

• I am not deleting this blog. It will remain up at least as an archive, it nothing else.

I'm undecided whether to keep running it or not though. It was a my art blog, not a fandom blog to begin with, but it's been almost exclusively UTMV-related for ~7 years, so I'm not sure whether it'd be better to make a new blog or keep this one going with whatever new interests I have. (Fair warning: No idea what fandoms I might end up in.)

What to do with this blog?

Keep it strictly UTMV

Keep it running as an art blog

I don't care / show results

I'm finally done. The only reason this exists is because I thumbnailed the whole thing back in 2024 :P

PETSCOP OSOSAN AND HOLLOW KNIGHT ART FROM ONE OF MY FAVORITE UNDERTALE ARTISTS????????? HOLY SHIT THIS IS LIKE CHRISTMAS

...This is such a baffling ask to me, because:

1. I'm only familiar with one out of three of those fandoms. The other two ended up with fanarts just because someone requested them who knows how long ago :P

2. I fell outta Undertale fandom, like, 2-3 years ago now, so I don't even think I'm an Undertale artist anymore??? (To be fair, I still have one last 'hurrah' in the works, but only because the thumbnails for it were made years ago, so... might as well.)

Just some Petscop doodles because I recently got reminded of the thing. Couldn't not include the infamous "Here I Come" scene, could I?

I had this character in my bookmarks on ArtFight but didn't get the chance to doodle him on time... So here's a doodle of Charleston who belongs to @shoatgeep

how do you feel about your past fandom art. i see a lot of artists grow unhappy with their past work and its understandable but also unfortunate to see. i kind of relate at times. but it does mean a lot to a lot of people

i hope the question isn’t bothersome.

I feel like the whole "unhappy" thing you're referring to is just the side effect of the artists' skills growing. The more confident you are in your craft, the easier it is to see the mistakes you've made before — not just in how you draw, but in how you write and interpret characters you're working with. How you treat your past work afterwards, then, mostly reflects how optimistic you are and how good your self-esteem is.

That said, I'm kinda 'meh' about the art I've made in the past. It happened. I've made it. It is now floating somewhere on the internet. Someone liked it? Good for them. Someone disliked it? Oh well, not my problem.

It helps that I can't remember, like, most of what I've actually drawn. I see reblogs in my notifications, and I get a moment of "Wait, I drew that???" ... It happens embarrassingly often. But I can't dwell on things I can't remember, so... win? :D

happy october

🎃

You too!

Watercolor continues to disagree with me, but I like the effect anyway :P

(I used this stock photo as reference, btw)

#Jass' art #asks

Will you do this years InktoberTale? :D

I'm not doing any art challenges this year, nope

#jass rambles #asks

awn why did you deleted your Inky and the Glitches tread on twitter?

I haven't used Twitter in, like, a year or so, so if something went missing there, it's not because of my deleting it that's for sure.

#it probably says a lot about me that I have no idea what thread you're talking about either...#jass rambles #asks

Saw someone call Mad Heart (CW: some flashing lights in the linked video) — the song and the stage — the Megalovania of Mad Rat Dead and... yeah, no, I kinda see what they meant. So you get a parody of the (in)famous restaurant scene from Undertale :P

you play deltarune chapter 3and4?

Nope. Not planning to either so far
