Attack of the SHORK!
@BeePunz
shork, to be exact
Don't worry, she just wants someone to talk to about her recent trashy romance anime binge.
They're gonna be there for a while.
Ah, I guess I could post this one as well! It's a lil' rough, I really do need to draw her again. I need to do those hips JUSTICE.
Dark Elf gal is
@OolongEarlGrey
's! (I'm not sure if she has a name <:U )
'Advertise your account with one image'
Screw that, I'ma post something to LOSE followers!
So you know that dumptruck cat from Kirby and the Forgotten Land? Okay that, but what if G A R F I E L D
Local man menaced by Huge Snake Woman
Apologies for the lack of art, especially after hitting such a big milestone as 200 Followers! A mix of Winter Blues and sleepless nights has drained a lot out of me 🫠
@SiftMicro
YEP!
Although, from what I have gathered, it seems to be mostly whoever TPC contracted to create/edit the Presents just grabbed the first Area Zero music upload they found. Which is apparently a common thing in the industry.
Holy geez, guys. 300 followers??? I legit don't know how I got to here so damn fast, but I'm super flattered that you folks enjoy my work!
Also as a side note, I have been pruning the Instagram Model Bots, so the number isn't inflated. If I didn't, it'd be like 500 lol
@Carro3DSculpts
@LaPotato_prime
yes yeS YES YES
I really dislike walkin' through the bloody minefield of 'Oh sweet some good size differeeeoooooohhhh... Oh the guy got abducted from the McDonalds Ballpit😬'
@SiftMicro
Just stay still and the Las Plagas will think you're a mountain!
... an oddly round, wobblily orange mountain with seemingly stretched sweater fabric, BUT A MOUNTAIN NONE THE LESS!
I know I haven't been around for the whole year, and that I haven't really made a whole lot or anything spectacular
BUT, I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and ask ya folks what Art of mine you guys liked the most this year :U
@SiftMicro
Back when I played Overwatch, I had a fun time gameplay wise, but a lot of that soul was missing for me
There was no Knightly lime-green Demoman with a flaming sombrero dickin' around in spawn going "The ENGINEER is a BLOODY- sentry" *proceeds to point n' laugh once then dies*
It is sNOWING
GO AWAY, IT'S NOT EVEN HALLOWEEN YET!!! I STILL HAVEN"T FINISHED MY HALLOWEEN DRAWING, I DO NOT NEED WINTER VIBES RIGHT NOW.
AAAAHHHH!!!!
@SiftMicro
Coming from a big Poke-dork, I honestly just skipped around a lot when I watched it after work. It defiantly felt rather jumbled.
Also MAJORLY stinks they used a fan's rendition of Area Zero's theme without asking or crediting
@SiftMicro
As much as I really enjoyed Origami King, it really is a huge refresher going back to the older RPGs where they actually gave Toads & various other Mario lads fun designs instead of just generic copy-paste
We'll even get a second does of that with Thousand Year Door next year!
@SiftMicro
Greninja really just buried the other two starters, huh?
Which is a shame since Chestnaught is a cool n' cute 'mon, and poor Delphox got Intelleon's 'Cool Design but terribly botched when translating to 3D'
@SiftMicro
'Lotta folks getting the 'Vid as of late.
I really don't want to catch it again, last time my voice was just completely mangled for like 2 months. Couldn't even finish a sentence without running out of breath or my voicebox just dying halfway
Ouuugh.... I REALLY hate when my brain switches to 'Severe Introvert' mode
I can't get anything done because basic lil' things just easily rattle my brain so goddamn hard it just ruins my mood and saps any motivation.
Like, I'm being overwhelmed by my mum watching TV. UGH. 😞
Lil’ update with the whole ‘almost getting electrocuted’ thing
House is fine, I don’t have any burns/bruises, my Internet is going to be down until Tuesday
I guess i’ll be doodling all weekend to keep myself occupied lol
@SiftMicro
Yeah, a fair amount of the post-game bosses are more like puzzles than actual Superboss.
Booster's is the funniest for me simply because of his ultimate attack is so dumb and I love it
@Carro3DSculpts
'Eeeeeyyy, wonderful work! VERY nice shapely heft with the bobertsons, and I like how fun n' expressive you made her! Always a nice lil' treat to have some silly with the sexy.
@SiftMicro
Ooooh, I quite like the raincoat for her! Helps with the silhouette be in line with Kyogre.
Also dig that you guys went with Primal! I love the regular forms, but the Primals really punch them up several notches
@SiftMicro
Marnie is in that 'unfortunate' category for me, where there was a good foundation there with Spikemuth, she has a nice design n' such
BUT she is stuck in Sword/Shield, where EVERYTHING gets fumbled to hell and back, especially characters
@SiftMicro
There's so many things that I kept expecting them to change, like a bunch of the wacky enemies, but naw it's straight up a HD Makeover with a few Quality of Life stuff. AND THAT'S GOOD!
I still up can't believe they kept in 'Peach's ???'
@SiftMicro
Yeah, you really gotta have a sense of self awareness with a kink/fetish like this. Or like, ANY fetish really.
I've seen folks with -zero- self awareness and ooooooh BOY
@SiftMicro
Ah yes, the fairest of all the colors; Boob
I'm partial to the Rhubarb Robertsons shade, myself. Although I must say TITanium is all the rage right now
@Carro3DSculpts
Oooooh god, this is such a mood...
I totally getcha, you see an excellent piece of art after struggling with your own and for some dumb reason you just end up in a pit of self-loathing, seeing yourself as a total failure as the good ol' depression slinks it's way back in 🙃 ough
@SiftMicro
I knew it wouldn't happen in a million years, BUT maaaaan I wish Pizza Tower was on the list for Music.
I've gone back to listen to the OST sooooo many times, especially Tropical Crust and Tombstone Arizona
'Sauce, what are you doing?'
'Drawing Giantess Banana.'
'It's 1 o'clock in the morning, why on earth are you drawing Giantess Banana?!'
'-Because I've lost control of my life.-'
@SiftMicro
Yeh, I see where you're coming from with these nitpicks.
Elephant really is underwhelming. Like there ARE mechanics that make it interesting, but they never get used properly.
And yeah, the Badges are not great. I love the Vine Grapple, but why use that when I have SPEEEN jump
@SiftMicro
A lot of the badges would work a thousand times better as permanent upgrades in a Metroidvania game, I feel. But instead, they're kinda just stuck in 2D Mario
ALSO, be on the lookout for some FRUIT later tonight. I know DMs were being a dingus last time I sent 'em >:U
@Carro3DSculpts
Somethin' about designs with hair hiding half the face just gets the neurons firin' like MAD.
An air of mystique? A nice dash of asymmetry in the design? Whatever it is, it almost always makes me go👀-!
@SiftMicro
Marx Soul's screeching deathrattle certainly gave me quite the scare the first time beating the True Arena in Kirby Super Star Ultra
OH, and Giratina's jumpscare in Pokemon Platinum also made me jump lol
@SiftMicro
I kept having to do Captchas and reconfirmations with my email
BUT THEN I figured out it was all because I wasn't following at least 5 people? As soon as I did that I guess I was cleared
It was very sudden yet relieving to get response notifications the morning after 😅
@SiftMicro
O-oooooohhhhh
Big scary looming meanie bullying smol, but also a smidge of affection in a sort of way? 👀💦
Also she looks like a VERY nice design, even in the cropped preview!
@SiftMicro
Yeh yeh, I getcha. Bottoms are good, especially with the right pose/scenario, but it's rather limited in terms of interaction unless you go.... ya know. That stuff isn't particularly to my tastes, either.
@SiftMicro
Yeah! I also don't like how *spoilers*
The Trial of the Leaf Sage's cave also eats a day if you don't do all 10 of the Dandori missions in a row. Like it kinda just bloats the day count if you wanted to do it bit by bit
I think I'll be taking some time off from Xtwitter/Socials.
Mental Health has been in the dumps for a while, and I need to clear my head. Socials only exacerbates it 🫠
My introverted ass is VERY TIRED from like 4 days of major socializing with family events + work 😓
BUT
My brain has been filling with ~big ideas~ so as soon as the Fam is gone, it's very likely I'll be doodlin' up a storm
@Carro3DSculpts
It'll be a long ass wait, BUT honestly I'm glad they're taking the year off for the series to really sit down and work on it
Especially as a fan of another (pocket) Monster series that has a terrible yearly release schedule with each game getting more rushed than the last 🫠
@BeePunz
YEEEEEAH THIS IS THE GOOD STUFF!
Smug playful toothy grin, claw/nails digging into the earth, even the lil' things like her hair bang draping over the land. VERY GOOD.
@SiftMicro
I'm the same with a lot of games, particularly Pokemon, where I'll get a big itch to dig out and play one of the older ones, but then about 3/4th through the main game I kinda just fall off
Not that I don't enjoy them, more of a 'brain switched to a different lil' fixation'
@SiftMicro
Yeah, I was a lil sad when there weren't more Ghost Houses! Was also disappointed that those Firework Bob-omb guys didn't come back.
BUT, I think having a stage to their own helps both make the Stage AND enemies stand out more.
@Carro3DSculpts
Out of all the 4th Gen maps, Volcanic Hallow is the one that always had the most amount of stupid moments like this for me.
A lot of them also involving Gravios as well, be it the super roar-stun or beaming across the map.
Spent 2 hours cooking up a new meal
It turned out awful 🫠
It was suppose to be a beans n' rice thing I saw online, but the rice just wouldn't cook and the beans are more like a crummy meatless chili than anything...
@SiftMicro
All of these men are unhinged & insane, buuut maybe Medic, sorta?
But instead of replacing all your blood with Pidgeon blood & Ubercharge it's turning things into curvy gals & en-big-ification
Also I DM'd the FRUIT but I may be in Xwitter Limbo again 🫠
@SiftMicro
It certainly blows out all of the New SMBs, for sure
I do think it's my favorite of 'em all, even with the huge nostalgia-glasses I have for Mario 3 GBA!
My only issue would be the Boss Battles as well, but 2D Mario has kinda always had lame Bosses.
@WoahBeMe
It certainly beats eternally scrolling one post at a time!
I feel like the icon for Multi-Picture posts should be more visible, though. I've missed out on groups of drawings because I didn't notice the lil' icon at first
@SiftMicro
I honestly thought he got ousted before, but I guess there was already just so much bullshit surrounding the weirdo that I just -presumed- 'Oh yeah, he got accused of that and just slimy eel'd his way out of it'
I still can't over that 'Age License' crud he kept spouting
Glad it seems that I'm no longer in Twitter Limbo.
For about a week I guess the site wouldn't actually notify folks when I was tagging or DM'ing them these fanarts.
I was really concerned that I might have somehow annoyed/angered some folks when doing that lol
@SiftMicro
OOOOOOO it's such a cute illustration of Lady Bow!!! I need to study n' harness that cuteness for next year, the Bow I drew this year is lacking in that
I really would like to get the shirt as well, but I know I'd get crap from some folks if I ever wore it 🫠
Probably the most cursed TF2 Spray interaction I've had in a while, poor Solider straight up collapsed upon seeing it
I get a lot of millage with that Lou Albano Mario picture
Trying to find good Size Difference stuff is like walking through a mine field
Like man, you find an artist with a REALLY GOOD sizey artpiece that fires all the neurons in the brain, but then you go to see their other works and it's just
Ooooooh nooooo
What I'm trying to say is that I don't want to worry about if the characters involved were potentially abducted from the McDonalds Ballpit, if you catch my drift
@SiftMicro
Yeah, I defiantly see it more as a 'Spectacle' area. If it were a giant arena for a boss or Dandori Battle I think it would have worked a lot better.
~ Spoilers ~
I don't think it helps that right after is Giant's Hearth and the Primordial Thicket, which are both great areas.
