Painting of Newt from his Military days! I chose a blue/gray outfit just cause I feel like it’ll blend with the colour of the ironbellies more
Tried to figure out Annie and Kat from Gunnerkrigg Court. If you’ve had it on your to-read list for ages but haven’t actually gotten around to it yet, please do.
Tracer from Overwatch ^_^
Posted a bunch of places but I haven’t drawn in a while so I need the material ;_;
Woo, it’s so nice to get a piece of artwork completed! Here’s a look at the bookmark I’ll have with me this con season. If you manage to make it to Topatocon and MICExpo, be sure to grab one!
precious no-nonsense wombat
I’ve been rereading Digger and tbh if you’ve never read it you need to
What to do: If you DELETE GRAVITY
DO NOT attempt to just bring gravity back!
1) Freeze time 2) Bring gravity back and turn back time 3) Then unfreeze time

I like to call this one: “I have several serious projects to work on, but I’d rather colour a sketch of my princess”
Only in Episode 2 of the show and I can’t help but think these two love giving each other nose kisses all the time…
Hey Everybody! I guess since the intro for “Star and the Forces of Evil” has been out for a while now, I can post this! Here is an alternate version of the intro sequence I storyboarded- kind of a first pass to what the current “Star” intro sequence ended up being. It took a little over a week to do, incorporating a lot of input from the show’s creator Daron Nefcy. It was a challenge to try and stuff everything about the show into 30 seconds all while keeping time to the song. This is an “animatic” (so no animation) and since this won’t make it to air I thought the fans might get a kick out of seeing it. Enjoy!

rambling about minesweeper
My favorite thing is when you’re near the end of the game, and there’s an area left, but no way to advance from the edge without guessing – then you figure out the minimum number that must be along the edge and look at the number of unflagged mines left: how many mines does that leave unaccounted for? Could be few enough that it’s safer to click in the depths of the uncovered area than along the edge. Maybe you’ll click right in a big empty space, and the edge will practically be all that’s left. Maybe you’ll uncover a smaller pocket, and work your way outward from there. Maybe you only uncover a few tiles, but those tiles give you the information you need to make a breakthrough nearby. Or maybe! some more complex deduction is called for, with overlapping areas of “there’s gotta be [X] many mines here”. I love it!!!
But as much as I love working with those scenarios, I hardly ever run into them, because 1) getting that far on expert level in the first place requires quite a bit of time, and persisting through some inevitable failed games, 2) it could easily turn out that you progress through the rest of the board smoothly and without any hiccups. Which, I mean, is fine if your goal is just to finish the game, but I’ve finished the game tons of times by now. I don’t get any sense of accomplishment from that anymore. It’s the journey that I enjoy, hence *gestures to first paragraph* all that.
“But wait, if these scenarios are in the endgame, why not play on the levels with smaller boards? Then you’d get to the end faster.” Well, expert level doesn’t just have a bigger board. It also has a higher mine density. And that higher density is critical for these scenarios forming in the first place. If the density is too low, then you’ll just sail smoothly to the end. Now, some Minesweeper games allow you to make custom boards, where you specify the size and the number of mines. But I haven’t found one of those that I really liked. Largely because I’ve gotten used to cardgames.io’s interface, though there was one with controls that just flat out sucked. No chording/expansion clicks??? What is this, the stone age??? But yeah, other boards just seem uncomfortably small now.
I wanted to see how she’d look with colored-in pupils.

One thing I wish you could’ve done in The Dead Case:
(vague spoilers)
Help Marion find out her maiden name.
That would’ve been nice.
Maybe Ivan could help with the research.
Well, I guess they could uncover it during or after the epilogue.
Speaking of point-and-click browser horror games, waaaay back in my early internet days when I frequented Newgrounds a bit too much, there was one that was my absolute favorite. The Dead Case by Retshark. You play a ghost with no memory trying to solve his own death and discover some secrets that have been going on in the town
I played this when it first came out 10 years ago! Admittedly, its been a while since I last replayed it (I think that was back in 2008) and it is a little dated, but to my memory its still an excellent game worth looking at. Got themes of murder and whatnot so be aware of that before playing
Well some things that come to mind are:
Ametrine
Peridot’s reactions to her old home kingdom (and her backstory??)
Peridot and Almond finding out they like the same show
Puffington’s
Disaster Masters
what are their naaaaames
the eventual return of G͜͜ĺ̴i̷̴̛̛t̵̢c҉͡h͜͏̷̛m̨͞͏́á̧ś͘͢͡t̶͞e̵͏͡ŗ̵͞͠
yeah!!!
#im looking forward to the crystal kingdom just for all the su connections lmao
so funny thing actually
In the bonus material of book 1, written way before SU even aired, there’s a section on the kingdoms of Dreamside. It says the Crystal Kingdom is divided into two: a scorching hot side ruled by King Ruby, and an icy side ruled by Queen Sapphire.
have you seen this series of tweets alluding to future cucumber quest stuff? (just go down a couple pages or ctrl-f “interlude”)
I had actually seen them a while back, but i’d forgotten. its pretty exciting! Which upcoming event are you most hyped for friend?
