UTY: Friends in High Places

Clover went into the mountain alone, but found friends along the way. And if their new friends won't give up, then they won't either. They'll find the secret lying beneath the mountain... wherever it may be. Hi, I'm Hendrix, and I write a goofy fic called Friends in High Places where a ton of monsters join Clover's question for truth, justice, and used cars. Give it a read if you have time! Enjoy your stay! Profile pic is a from the part 1 thumbnail by @nerosensei Banner art is an amazing piece done by the talented @themintman

Get hugged, loser. Get lost in my corn maze of joy and whimsy 🫵

A painting I had done for @utyfriendsinhighplaces a few months back!! I'm still super happy with how this one came out :]

Hi everyone! So recently, I commissioned and got back the thumbnail for part 2, and the very wonderful NeroSensei promoted it on Twitter! So, for those of you who still haven't seen it, here's the post! And here's a link to said post, for those of you who use Twitter. All support is appreciated!

Episode 2 is still coming along, mostly the dialogue. My friend Zender Troop lent me a dialogue simulator that lets me write dialogue directly into Undertale Yellow's code, which makes the dialogue in FiHP look and sound even more accurate to the actual game!

Thank you all for your support, and I'll try to keep you all updated on how things go.

I realize I haven't posted anything in a little while, so as a treat, have a look at Penilla's updated portraits! I wanted her to be plenty expressive and even a little adorable, and I think this captures that exactly how I wanted.

Part 2 is coming along slowly since college work and other stuff is bogging me down, but I'll keep at it. We'll see what happens!

HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY, UNDERTALE!!!!

What do you mean I'm late 😭 I've been really busy with life and work, sorry...

Anyway uh.. Happy 10th to the game that skyrocketed my passion for drawing and made me the person I am today.

It'd be very difficult to say exactly what this game means to me. So I'll just settle on saying that it's a lot. It's something I feel like I'll just keep coming back to, and the impact it had on my life is immeasurable (Including me meeting my best friend through Undertale Yellow).

Thank you so much, Undertale.

Time lapse and a no text version under the line break.

Watch 27 hours of work go by in 1 minute! Lol.

Tried a bit of an experimental way to color and shade my sketches so that might have been a part of why it took so long.

[utyfriendsinhighplaces]

10 years sure do fly by, huh? Happy 10th anniversary to Undertale! I'll never forget it. I hope we keep celebrating it for years to come.

Stay determined! And remember, you've always got friends at your side.

After a while, I've finally uploaded the background track that played in Part 1! You can now listen to it as much as you like. Hope you all like it, and I'm looking forward to making more music as the story progresses. It should be fun! : )

Hi everyone! Just making a quick post to let you know that I've really warmed up to this website and do want to be around here more often, so I've made a separate blog for just myself, which I think I'm going to use for tumblr communication while this blog stays related to Friends in High Places. That way I can like and reblog posts freely even if they're not related to FiHP, while keeping this blog on track.

@hendrixthunderous is the blog's @, so follow me there if you enjoy what I make! I'd really appreciate it. :D

LOVEEEE drawing shit like this like it takes forever but it's such good practice n so relaxing man. Also when else am I gonna get to spend hours staring at The Characters

[utyfriendsinhighplaces]

All this positive attention on FiHP-related artwork excites me so much. I love it when more people get to be introduced to my silly story.

This project really just started out as a niche idea that I wanted to pursue out of a desire to write the various monsters of UTY as real living beings with their own beliefs, thoughts, and desires. Sometimes I doubt my ability to do that well, but all this stuff recently just makes me believe more and more strongly.

Thank you again @themintman for the incredible art!!! I remember getting my first fan art for this silly project back in 2024 for my birthday- I was so happy then, and I’m even happier now to see fan art of stuff I’ve only ever imagined in my head until now! It’s surreal!

Now, let’s just hope I can the animation get up to where I left off in the fanfic. It’s a bit of a ways to go but I’ve definitely got this. These Friends are about to reach High Places near you- believe it!

[themintman]

Gee clover, you sure did manage to make some friends in high places!

Plus some more doodles, mostly dark ruins monsters but some others snuck in there too hehe

[utyfriendsinhighplaces]

New portraits for a few more silly monsters! Very proud of these. Expect to see these in the episodes to come.

Made a bunch of sketches too. The first one is the initial concept for the part 1 thumbnail before I commissioned NeroSensei (huge thanks to them!!) The other sketches are just lil notes and other nonsense like that. I'm really no artist outside pixel art but who cares, I do this for fun! We all like fun!
