Long story short, I have a talented friend whose superpower is to create awesome action/adventure storylines that can easily be translated into a game plot or miniseries, and they never cease to amaze and inspire me. Much to my chagrin, they rarely post, so I can't give you a link to the story, but I can show a bunch of concepts I did based on my friend's fanfiction. "After wreaking havoc on Eggman's ship, the hedgehogs teleport away from the explosion. Chaos Control goes awry, and two hapless heroes find themselves in the depths of the mountains. To get back to the surface, they will have to work together, whether they like it or not."

I was high off my ass last night and had this dream where I was in this dense ass forest and sitting there was a tall woman. She was so tall I couldn’t see her face but she was wearing gold and I was like “uh...hi?” And she said “I made you, do you know that?” And I nodded and she was like “I hear your thoughts. Why do you hate my creation? Why do you try to destroy yourself? I made you perfect as you are. Please don’t break my heart”. Then she started crying and it flooded and I woke up with fucking heart palpitations like what does it Mean™️????

Another slow shift and i was feeling like drawing armour so i drew a bunch of Metroid fanart.
Thinking about a bio-horror Metroid Fusion comic again…
Calvin and Hobbes was magic--and sometimes a little creepy--when it embraced surrealism. And this was in the funny papers alongside goofiness like Garfield and The Family Circus.
You can only reblog this today.
You can literally make anything and anyone problematic if you try hard enough seriously give me people and things and I’ll make them all “problematic” right now.
Halo 5 Helmet Redesigns
A little project I’ve had in the works since the end of inktober.
There is a ton of criticism I have for the game, but one thing that’s bothered me a lot is the design of the Gen 2 armor variants and helmets.
Many of them just didn’t look like Spartan armor anymore. By all means excellent designs by themselves, they weren’t really the best fit for Halo. This was probably to support differentiation of rewards in the card pack system in the game, but from an in-universe standpoint it makes no sense to me.
Although it’s stated that production of power armor has been opened up to the private sector as well, there is something to be said about having compatible standards, especially in a military context and even more so when the people wearing these suits regularly get into extremely hazardous situations where damage to their armor is likely an replacements need to be made. Worse, Spartans often operate behind enemy lines without easy access to maintenance and having wildly different designs seems like a bad recipe for field repairs.
So that’s one thing I tried to do as a design exercise with this and create a more uniform look while keeping the icons that make the helmets unique: Where possible, all helmets share the same neck seal and neural interface port and a more straightforward visor. (Don’t get me started on Seeker.)
Variants where the main difference is some sort of add-on tech or visor have been redesigned to have one baseline frame with these additions on top (like back in Reach).
Variants that were really similar in design (think EVA and Orbital) have been condensed into one.
Some helmets have been ignored entirely and ones with super-gimmicky designs (hello Warmaster) have been dialed back.
Armor designs will follow once I figure those out.
This is amazing!
Another part of my Archie redraw series! With cover #3, this wraps up the original miniseries !
Timelapse of this is available on my Bluesky.
Some thoughts on this piece and on this issue below ⤵️
So, my initial plan was to do a Green Hill Loop, but incorporate more greenery and flora to actually make it feel like Green Hill and not just a basic grid. You can see a bit of that rough sketch at the very beginning of my timelapse.
But ultimately, I decided to stick to the abstract route and instead pulled directly from Sonic Mania for inspiration! I feel like nothing best captures that classic sonic aesthetic than that retro deco.
I also kind of found it fitting to pull inspo from Mania's OP for this one since Tyson Hesse mentioned before that this very cover was what inspired him to become an animator in the first place when discussing his cover for IDW #50.
I tried to fit as many Sonics as I could but ultimately skipped out on one, so there's 7 instead of 8 lol. I wanted to ensure that the "speediest" Sonic have his face covered by the quills of the Sonic still tapping his foot, as something I disliked about the original is the speediest Sonic overlapping the standing one. By all accounts, he should be Behind him and the other Sonics follow that suit, but if that particular Sonic did, his face would be covered. As a result, I compromised lol.
As for my thoughts on this issue!!!! I don't really have much haha. Ultimately, it's not going to be an issue I'm going to remember. It was just a fun silly issue, but there's not much there to really comment on. It was nice to see some more of Uncle Chuck though!!
With all that said, we're finally getting to the Actual series now and I can't wait ! <3
These are perfect.

The fact of the matter is that they don't actually follow the Christian faith.
And so when actual Christian doctrine gets put in front of them (i.e. humility, compassion, and charity) they are flabergasted.
They will talk a big game about how important their faith is, but will turn a blind eye to someone in need because of ignorance, hate, or greed. Even though the Bible calls upon you to "Feed the hungry", "Clothe the naked", and to treat all people with dignity and kindness.
The only way to really make a change is to continue to push on this like Pope Francis does here. To be unwavering in your good nature. Regardless of what doctrine or philosophy you choose to anchor yourself around.
I genuinely think there was no greater insight into the modern Christian mindset than when the Pope said he very much hoped Hell was empty and he was absolutely hounded by both Catholics and Protestants outraged at the idea of a man who wanted a place of infinite suffering to have nobody in it.
Oh hey, I remember this level of Halo 3

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.
Just some random fun on the side. It's been a while since I attempted The Simpsons in the Mallory style. Translating those characters is harder than you'd think. Ironically, I'm better at drawing them in their own style.
what if the creepers were the previous generation of villager’s defense system that were replaced by the more advanced iron golems causing these units to be abandoned and left to rust and overgrown with moss
with the operating system deteriorating with time, these units no longer function properly, becoming a hunk of metal filled with explosive faulty electrical components wandering the earth, becoming a hostile mob themselves
sorry, I felt an obligation to do this
