Doodlin OC stuff for fun

In my lived experience, mutagenic virus tech is extremely useful and has many interesting applications, but every time I try to talk about it, people on bluesky just start yelling at me about t-Virus and Raccoon City. Many mutagenic virus engineers prefer to stay on X for this reason.

Apparently Chris Jericho was getting rowdy at the Phantom of the Paradise screening I was at so I have to assume every Manitoban in the city of Los Angeles was in that room tonight

Took over a month off from drawing and honestly I think I needed that break, hopefully I can get back in the saddle with refreshed ideas

Bluesky, this is an extremely niche query, but: does anyone know of a brush pen with a short brush on it? Not like a disposable one, one with a real brush, just…short-ish

I mean. Yes, even in-universe: Because the man who actually, canonically invents Metal Gear is only alive in one scene, where he drunkenly explains that putting legs on a tank is GENIUS

I really love the song "I wanna know what love is" by Foreigner. It just rules. I love it. It gets stuck in my head all the time. My favorite use of it in media was in Miami Vice, SE01 EP17 "Rites of Passage" which you should watch on Tubi. Tubi saving the day again! tubitv.com/tv-shows/717...

Funny you should say this! When I made that fateful "I'm going to make a visual novel" post a year ago, I was: 1) Slightly drunk, and 2) Re-watching a bunch of Metal Gear Solid cutscenes read into that what you will

If I only used one panel to explain why @ryannorth.ca and @gavinguidry.bsky.social’s Flash is a delight, it would probably be this one

genuinely baffles me an artist in the industry is calling anti-data centers NIMBYism

I've been tracking my moods and activities and weather and stuff every day for 2401 days straight that's pretty good for somebody who sucks at tracking anything, organization, and consistency

*ahem* Regarding my planned Visual Novel…. Uhhh. My cat ate it 🤷

"break the glass"

Pantyhose season is coming! One of the benefits to wearing skirts, you get to wear colorful tights that add to the outfit

Went to a restaurant tonight and overheard a guy telling his wife "It's my opinion and it sounds like you're trying to change it! Quit trying to change my opinion!" and I have no idea what his opinion was about, but I can definitely tell you it was a bad opinion.

Also. Leoragame DM alluded to an AbsiLeora scene this weekend’s game so like……….. expect me to go cocobanana nuts …

I’m being very brave for someone w a headache

I'm trying to be able to do one real push up by the end of the year and I've never had sore pecs before and now periodically throughout the day i yell "AH MY STUPID BOOBS OW"

🔆Looking for book recommendations if folks have them! Big fan of Terry Pratchett (Discworld and Tiffany are amaze) Brandon Sanderson (love me some Stormlight Archive and Mistborn (Wax and Wayne) Drew Hayes - Fred, the Vampire Accountant Never Whistle at Night After the Forest by Kell Woods

Been a little bit since I've been to an indie comics fest without a pal, so I'll be a nervous guy at this upcoming SPX. Not sure who else is going!

Oof nothing like shaving off that drawing rust after not making much in 2 weeks

Carly Rae Jepsen do not drip feed random tracks from your new album I just want to hear the whole thing when it drops

I read gone with the wind (1034 pages) when I was 12 I read Eragon (530 pages) when I was 7 Stop underestimating kids

Trying to think of an equivalent for what this sounds like to people from other areas so you understand how insane this is for the LA mayor. Wisconsin equivalent: "I do not believe that cheese curds should be eaten fresh. In fact, I think they should only be used for cheese and not eaten at all"

"Just eat fruits that are in season" yo I've lived in america for 40 years and my whole life we've had every fruit available in the grocery store year round when the fuck is banana season? I don't know that shit!

went on a long walk down the block with michi's shy identical sister without trying to pet her and she seemed to enjoy that although I got a couple in earlier

I lived an entire childhood being advised, in a humble yet chastising tone, "You might like it when you're older" Yet, when I am finally of age, when my boyish young tastebuds have developed into that of a robust man's desire, you dare to take the bleu cheese from me??

I don’t know if this answer will stick but my instinctual response is DRIVE ANGRY

Redwall vibes, one of my earliest influences #art

I’m not saying anything about Reggie Watts here, but these exact sentiments are a documented part of the wellness-to-fascism pipeline and anyone should be very wary around the topic

Anyone asking for a bleu cheese burger knows what they're asking for. Don't just put a couple crumbles on there! No skimping on the bleu cheese! I desire it. I want to put it into my mouth. I do not fear the cheese, I welcome it.

Blue Crane or Heron, John James Audubon, 1827–38.

Shame is good actually. Make them realise that the places they want to be in don’t want them for their bad behaviour.

stoppp using cash boxes or separate pouches/containers to hold cash when you're vending at cons, get a waist or sling bag that is physically attached to your body at all times and hide that thing when you're leaving the con center

Aw yes, so glad to see something for season two! I'm always worried about good shows getting canceled youtu.be/3oCx6HcYz9k

at 31% so far 😞🙏

anyway this is a super on point thread about what scripts are actually *for*--spoilers, they're almost never *for you*

frankly even if the entire creative team is just you--in fact, moreso. sometimes the note you need to figure out what the vibe is the 🫡 emoji and if that's what communicates what you're going for to the people who need to know--including if it's just you--then you've succeeded

Oops another WIP

Good morning, chums!

HOLY SHIT, I MANIFESTED IT! I MANUFESTED ITTTT www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oCx...

I like to think this is because I always change it for the better and everybody is like "oh, that is good, we'll let them have that"

Me. Here. Tomorrow. www.2dcon.net

My lock screen most of the time.

you know the dark strip on the side of hello sunshine? yeah that scene bears almost no resemblance to the script, thumbs, nor pencils that I turned in for it

Have a question for artists who paint characters in a realistic style - do you find it hard if the only ref you get is non-realistic? Like, if I gave you pics of Hades from Disney Hercules… can you work with that alone? Or it’s better if you got a photo of a person to go along with it?

Holy crap that’s cool!!

sometimes writing/concepting is a slow trickle and sometimes you come up with 184 new things in 24 hours and there's no way to tell when it's gonna happen

I uhhhh made a Reddit account? www.reddit.com/user/PrismPr...

Airports really embrace a style of pop that I can only describe as “squealcore.” Unmoored in time, squealcore has haunted civilization for decades. It echoes piercingly through steel and concrete and pairs perfectly with flickering fluorescent lights when you haven’t slept in 30 hours

one of the hardest things I've had to do re-setting design is make an apartment that is both new and un-settled-into, and also shared, so it's two chars decorating in an overlap in tastes (or a clash--that's a choice I still have to figure out haha)

Had a great time with South of Midnight. One of the most unique and fully realized vibes I’ve seen in a game in a while.

I am in the great city of Liverpool

Can’t believe I’m saying this… but I‘d really like a non-silly episode of Strange New Worlds. Usually I love silly Star Trek but the balance feels off when every other episode is goofy in a very short season (and short seasons is all we get now with streaming).

Psycho > Psycho III > Psycho II > Psycho IV: The beginning >>>> Psycho (1998)

I saw a dude today wearing a shirt that said "You must be this tall to ride this ride" and then it had an arrow pointing down to a dotted line that was across his belly and I think some people have gotten too comfortable in this world.

the only sheets *I* care about spreading are the ones on my BED because I'm TIRED

How’s your evening going? I’m eating a steak I rescued from out rapidly defrosting freezer and then back emptying out our rather warm fridge. Refrigerated food should not feel body temperature

Just The Two Of Us is stuck in my head but specifically the alien version

I love when fantasy series have a dude called something like Stephen the All-Seeing, Keeper of the Demon Sword, hero of the Volcano Age. But in some tiny village, he's known as Bees Steve, that weird guy who loves beekeeping. The more uppercase titles the legend has, the funnier the contrast is.

I’ve started to stop using the bic pens and just using my mech pencil and eraser… working to get the cleaner/sharper lines but liking the process and being able to do revisions a bit easier. Friendship with bic pens maybe over. Mech pencil is my new best friend.

i dunno i think im just really tired

YEEEEEaAAAHHHhHhH!!!!!!!!

You can’t ask me for a work thing on a social medium because I will immediately forget about it unless it’s sitting in my email, guilting me

RE all the BG3 book stuff, there's a reason I only talk deeply about that game and Dragon Age with a select few lol I don't envy the folks who work on IPs, especially these two. I wrote one (1) character in Pathways who's messier than the rest, and there's this one reader who HATES him SO MUCH

Fromsoft keeps making these cool ass characters i want to play in games i dont like man

if u call yourself a creative i dont believe u

I’m back at the ACID lab and this time we are testing to see the effect GLP1s have on trichotillomania so…that’s gonna be…weird
