How did you do the background for 'The Mabel Treatment'? I love it and I wanna know how you did it!
Heya, anon, sorry for the late reply! Thank you for the ask!
I wish I could tell you that it was some sort of laborious act of love for my craft but it's actually just a built-in filter in Photoshop called "Crystallize"! There was a period of time where I was trying to use filters as quick-fix backgrounds and crystallize was one of my favorites. Plop down a gradient, stick the filter on and bam, cool and artsy!
If you're looking to crystallize something of your own but you don't wanna sacrifice a goat to the Adobe tyrants check out Photopea, its got all of Photoshop's features right in your web browser. Directory is "Filter > Pixelate > Crystallize..."
Hope you had an awesome Halloween! /|\^. .^/|\
And it was all yellow ~ đľ
Needed footage for my K&Z video essay so I bumped out a speedpaint of this at like four in the morning. Didn't come out exactly as planned but I still like it!
Destined to fall, like all those before him.
I really love Veen with divine motifs <3 Half-inspired by @dimneo1010's really awesome YV design; I think I had something like this sketched up quite a while ago but they definitely put it back in my brain. The look suits him!
Bad art output lately, mix of stress and program issues. This was done in CSP and while it's a fantastic program I like Photoshop more. Can't use it for long periods of time though bc it lags my laptop so much! Blargh, I miss art, specifically painting; ideally this would be painted ;_; Oh well, hope you like it anyway!
Stan you canât do that youâre gonna give the poor kid a heart attack
The stupid memes my brother and I think up at 2 AM hold a special place in my heart
Content warning for blood and religious imagery!
Happy Halloween!! This piece was a Halloween "Secret Santa" for Eden featuring his brown long-eared bat / golden-crowned flying fox hybrid!! Had so much fun with this character; bat gang rise up (and then down, and then back up). I was getting a bit too close to the deadline near the end and so had to swallow my pride and face the fact that the wooden frame was just not gonna happen, lol. It's a royalty-free image from Pexels, one of my favorite sites ever tbh : D The meaning behind this piece is up for interpretation. I'm a big fan of taxidermy, I was inspired by my own framed bats to spin a respectful (and in my opinion beautiful) art-form into something macabre. The pose of Jesus on the cross was something implemented partially for the irony of it as this character lives and works in Hell. Perhaps one could take this piece as punishing the damned in a horrific way that's still deemed moral and wholesome, or maybe it could be commentary on how torture and violence is so readily displayed through religious imagery. Would love to hear what you think!
EDIT: Hey thanks for all the notes! I did some more but I think Tumblr is nonfuctional so if you enjoy this youâll probably like these too. :]
I made this in five minutes with Sweet Child Oâ Mine looping in the background
Smiling Friends rocks Iâm so proud of my boy Zachary and his iconic Letâs Play Pals
Has this been done before? :p
Original for the uncultured
Made another at the same time as the Smiling Friends one! Iâd also like to make a Gravity Falls one and a Binding of Isaac one but theyâre quite a bit of work so Iâm gonna get all the stuff Iâve gotta do out of the way first. :D
This oneâs double-sided! The back is identical but without the window for â¨Â maximum immersion â¨Â

Quick rendering practice that will never be finished lol. Inspired by my lovely mutual @charseraphâs absolutely wonderful triangles; hypnotizing you into following them rn and beholding their beautiful crowns wawawawawa
Originally his surface was supposed to be a lot smoother but I kinda dug the hammered gold look so I went with it! My friends say he looks like an Emoji Movie render. Good.
Quick nâ messy shading experiment with Buddy who was designed by my pal @kaleidoprismatic ! ^^
"If he was going to get what he wanted from the Gun God, he would need to turn up the charm, and that would mean staying the night when Venuz asked. Considering his options in his limited state of power, Bill figured that it was either lie there for twelve hours staring at the ceiling or indulge in some shut-eye.
And so, for the first time in eons, the king of nightmares slept."
~~~
Man I just wanted to give context to this piece and wrote a whole drabble fic lmao. TL;DR Bill falls asleep at Venuz's place, has a nightmare and remembers all the events he erased in the fic Flat Dreams (which is totally legendary and you should go read it right now). He is not at all prepared to handle it
I really love this piece and it's deeply personal to me. I've been in an art block and this finally not only restored my confidence in my abilities but served to vent some really, really hard emotions I've been feeling lately after my mother's passing. I hope the heart in it shines through and you enjoy it as much as I do. Much love :) â¤ď¸đ§Ąđ
