This Made My Day!!! I Can’t Wait To See More.

I drew this silly sketch last spring, and it's been hanging on our refrigerator for months. Don't be jealous Kaz & Ocelot. Snake needs petting just as much as you do!

Damn, well good luck to you guys

Thanks, and sorry about the hype that ended in vaporware.

Posting this so I can't lose it in the pile of my Tumblr likes. And because it's the original artist, holy crap!

My “draw the squad” memes so far

watercolor + CSP

you make me want to draw again

here you go! this is also for my future self.

Oh my god look at this Snake.

Hey, I just saw your post about PeaceDay and I'm really sorry to see that the game isn't going to get made. If you don't mind me asking, were you actually approached with a C&D or are you just trying to avoid that situation? I'm in the middle of a lot of fanworks myself and I just want to know how cautious I should be.

I wasn’t approached, but a bunch of friends sent me messages informing me that these types of things have happened.  There was an AMA with some copyright lawyer on Reddit that specifically said that people who get sued over fangames often get an NDA and can’t talk about it after the settlement.  Then there were the 500 or so fangames taken down by Nintendo from GameBolt (I think that’s the name of the site).  Then there was the one piece of fan art that Kojima tweeted about and immediately got DMCA’ed by Konami.  Putting together the pieces I just feel like that’s enough of a warning for me to stay away.  According to the copyright lawyer on Reddit, “You cannot afford fair use.”Personally I don’t think you have to worry about fan art or video or fanfiction.  It’s games specifically - possibly because they’re a medium in direct competition that seem to be the trouble.  I don’t know a whole lot about it beyond that.  I’m just playing it somewhat safer than I normally would with stuff like this because Konami has a reputation for being pretty awful.I appreciate the message.

I used Midjourney to create these portraits of Naked Snake and Hideo Kojima as muppets!
