Thank you for 1.000 follows! so there's gonna be a little problem (read article)


So, the rebrand has been a bit of a mess. I sketched up some concept art of how the character should look, and I thought a shadow-like design would be easy to make... it was not

It's essentially the same concept as before, featuring me with a hat and fancy suit, but the design is much more stylized. The character is meant to be wearing a showman style outfit.

Something roughly like this, if you have an unimaginative brain

Originally, he was going to have a proper face, but I couldn't get it right, and I knew the final attempt for you all to see was going to look horrible. so, I got the brilliant idea to just cover it up so he looks like a shadow or something, Ralsei-style.

That way, I can reveal the epicness of his face when I finally learn how to do it properly, lol.

Also, here's his hat, by the way, for anyone curious

Anyway, back to the problem: I couldn't model him myself, so I asked my awesome friend Ryder if he could give it a try. It turned out to be too complex for him, which is completely okay – he was literally going to do it for free, so I'm very grateful regardless.

So, no model, and I'm in no mood to find someone else right now since I have to start work soon. Because of that, I thought I might as well just use the sketch art for now and we'll see how it goes. Thankfully, it's actually a bit high quality, although nothing worth screaming about.

I don't know, I don't really want to rush into the Game Jolt thing, so do you think I should take my time or try to do it with this temporary improv for now?

Just to be clear by "doing it now with the imrpov" wouldn't mean literally now, I would change my pfp and all that but it would take abit before I attempt to apply for creator, I would take my time with that, it's just there would be no model of my oc yet.

I've been waiting SO long for this to go on sale, im gonna have such a amazing weekend this week

I know no one asked but yes, Smiley's redesign was literally based on this gif lol

#spawnday 2 years wow

I'm currently finishing up someone's AI. I only have one more character's AI to go, and then I'm free from what was probably the biggest hurdle holding me back: making the AI. Everything else should be easy after that.

Canceled project

With Yoda's AI finished, I'm finally free from the cycle of procrastination I've been stuck in since I first announced this project.

I can't believe we have the actual scrapped models from 2016 now, this is so sigma.

This gif isn't mine btw, it was made by @Disamol lol.

Guess who just bought the Penumbra Series!

The Penumbra series is pretty cheap, so waiting for it to get a discount felt a bit silly. I'll be playing this while I wait for The Bunker to go on sale!
