Hi folks! I had to see a specialist this month. I'd really like to fill the hole it made in our budget. If you're interested, I have capacity for Scarry doodles, left handed pet doodles & single char bust sketches. Everything else is full until Dec. But you can still order if you're ok with waiting⬇️

The personality I use for the Arbiter class (Maul, I think?) in Darktide has this line where he says, "Mass judgement saves time AND resources!" when another character says something about the Arbiter getting a lot of kills in a short time.
And if that isn't the 40K Imperium in a nutshell.

One of the things that gets lost in translation is how rhythmic & fun to read the prose of the original Journey to the West is.
Best way I can describe it is "Imagine if Dragonball was Written instead of Drawn"

they tell you that dirty pair (1985) has an episode with a trans woman in it, but what they don't tell you is that the antagonist of the episode used her and her fiancee's love of hamburgers to manipulate her
