Second video of the trio; a shoutout for creators smaller than me (and a couple bigger). I wanted to disperse the clout so others could be as fortunate as I am and gain an audience. Of all the three, I implore you to watch this the most!

Been a while since I posted here. Taken the last month to work on some videos, one of which is below. I'll likely post the other two tomorrow and the day after. Here's the first of the bunch! youtu.be/azAk41VJYqc

Gave it a whirl on shading. Think I did decent! It's not a Disco Elysium portrait by any means but happy with the lighting on the side and the pose of the character. I shall move onto my next hyperfixation post-haste.

Shading is whack on this doodle but happy to report that I have been able to draw a feline that actually looks like a feline for the first time. Rejoice!

Was watching through a segment of @designframe.bsky.social's stream discussing my SoTM video in relation to FNAF and saw this. Seeing comedic bits like this evoke an actual reaction from someone is such a huge source of vindication. I'm not unfunny, thank God!

Hey all! With Vos Draemar finished, I’m able to start focusing on the 10k special for September. Part of it will be a QNA so if you’ve got any burning questions, either leave them on the new community post or in the comments here. Thank you!

I haven't posted on my socials in a hot minute. I've been embroiled with something I've dearly loved for a long time and, last night, finally let go of it.

A commemorative video is up on Twitter as Bsky won't let me upload here. May even put on the channel. We shall see.

The like to dislike ratio on the newest video is funny to me because since the new upload dropped it's remained steady at 89% only fluctuating up and down hourly by small decimals. This video has become this channel's Battle of Hacksaw Ridge.

Sometimes I get a DM or message going 'hey, I just got into your videos, good stuff!' and all I can imagine in my head is this fuckass image

If you mean the thumbnail or something, that's done by me. I don't use thumbnails from other people. They're referencing the appearance of this reaction image in the video.

Spent the last four hours beating Deltarune Chapter 4. Toby Fox has inserted a brainworm right into the centre of my cerebral cortex. White small dog indoctrination. It's over for me. The moment the whole game drops, my life is over. Mental illness eternal...

Two months of work. Several thousand words a day. Multiple sessions of me crying at my PC acknowledging the end that's approaching.
Book Six's first draft has been finished.
