Okay... I was not prepared by how adorable that fish abomination turned out after it was painted up.

Welcome! The left definitely coveys a much softer, contemplative vibe, whereas the right is more of a stellar/pop idol vibe, if that info also helps.

The right has really stark contrast so the figure really pops off the page. If you wanted to focus on more natural hair color, you can likely get the same popping contrast with the left using a bolder background color like gold rather than the pale blue. Depends on the mood you want to pull off.

as creative buckaroos we sometimes are beholden to a specific path we dream up, but in my experience art becomes SO POWERFUL when we hand over the reins and let it teach us about ourselves. when we COLLABORATE with fate. when we realize there is no artistic failure, there are just WAVES

That's going to look so amazing after a leather cleaning and oil treatment!

Ah. I wish. The Hotel Lottery gods did not work in my favor this year.

I hope you have a spendid time! Always love hitting up your cabinet of Nightmare Kart in the indie demo hall.

Oh! And if you like games about deciphering alien languages, Chants of Sennaar and Heaven's Vault are both terrific games.

Really great recommendations in here! Too add to the pile, if you want a more Eldritch exploration game vibe, I'd recommend Dredge. Which is a Lovecraft fishing game.

I seriously don't get the horizontal aggression on this. Being trans addresses your gender. Your sexual/romantic orientation is whatever blend it's programmed to be, regardless if you're trans or cis. So infuriating.

Ugh. That feeling sucks so much. That was me last night too.

That was one of those shows where the show and the toys diverged wildly. "What do you mean the gimmick with the toys is to get the pilot/brain get defenestrated from the vehicle?"

The base playset looked incredible, no lie.

One of my absolutely favorites that I taught myself how to write HTML in the mid 90s to create a fan page for that show back in the day. ♥️
