Something Something Grian Wip That Ill Probably Never Finish

spent 5 hours on this y’all I’m tired.

I wasn’t trying to draw them but I got distracted ok? Regardless I’m actually so proud of how it came out this is very outside of my comfort zone but I think it’s really nice but everyone I showed it to said it was creepy and ugly or laughed please guys my ego has taken critical damage please encourage me.

also, unrelated, but a good piece of safety advice: if something is clearly labeled “LASER TUBE” do not touch it, ok? Getting laser’d hurts. I speak from recent personal experience.

I got my mom to do the name them trend this is actually hilarious.

I asked my dad to do it as well, and he just said “they’re all named Fred.” and walked away lollllll

a very magnificent screenshot of these idiots (affectionate)

Last chance to apply guys form closes tomorrow! (Also btw guess who is mod Din lol it’s me I’ve decided to say it for bragging rights purposes)

It is time. Cue the ominous music and fog machines. Send for the crisp packets and dip. Turn on the lights. Then if that doesn’t work turn them off again and then back on. If they’re still being fussy, give the drywall a few good kicks and that should do the trick.

So. The moment you have all been waiting for. Yes that’s right, this is the culmination of all of our hard work and the high point in your life. We’re certain you thought of nothing but this for the past *checks watch* uhhhh however long it’s been.

CONTRIBUTOR APPLICATIONS ARE HERE!

Do you like smallishbeans? If you don’t like smallishbeans… what the heck are you even doing here?? We told you two forms ago to return to your average toast-making and sock-donning activities!! Begone from here, unless you want swamp muck in your shoes and Canadian YouTuber Etho Slab obsessed with you. Just Jeremys here now? Good. We don’t have to extol the virtues of Joel here to convince you to apply, because there are too many to list, and he is always happy to tell you some in any video of his you may watch, so we’ll skip right to the thing at the center of the onion (a metaphor more prominently used as “at the heart of the matter”, but we took it upon ourselves to improve it because we are benevolent leaders): the applications.

Google Docs

Smallishzine Contributor Applications

We’re gonna fill out the form, we’re gonna turn it in…and all that jazz!! 🎶 (get this reference or I explode you with my mind)

If you want to apply but are still reading this instead of applying you are doing the wrong thing.

Great, now it’s just us mods, so we will have our secret mod conversation unbeknownst to everyone else:

Cars are really neat. I like cars. And donkey Jeremy. Did you remember to say your daily prayers to Jeremy? Well duhh of course I did! Shrek shrek eefo shrek Jimmy solidarity shrek shrek we love Ldshadowlady

Had my brother do the name them life series thing

And here’s a quote from him “all these men seen kinda zesty”

update: we’ve got the other one now! They are sold as pair, please don’t separate them! They will go on a murder spree and kill everyone and then each other!!!

This isn’t exactly quality photography, so I’ll clarify; scar is wearing a hat, that is not all his hair.

just a silly doodle of G-man in the style of Don’t Starve :3

He is very done with it (it being everything)

also it is sparkly because I used the wrong pens by mistake but actually they turned out to be the right pens in the end because ✨sparkles ✨

I wanted to do something for Halloween, because I freakin’ love Halloween.

so I drew my favorite guy bein’ all scary.

Now he and Etho will match forever <3

guys do Halloween stuff I need to see the hype everywhere come on it’s like the internet collectively forgot about October 31 like where are are all my cringy diy decorations and soul destroying body horror art and drawings of every one’s favs in silly costumes and ao3 one shots of characters doing Halloween stuff and/or being horribly tortured in the name of the spooky season? Like the actual day isn’t half as fun as the lead up to it!

Also I’ve been kinda feeling like I’ve been spewing art out into the void here so like just so ya know comments and asks actually make my day. Thanks!

Here’s a pun I find funny:

do you occupy space and possess mass? You matter! Unless you multiply yourself by the speed of light squared. Then, you energy.

very important official zine stuff for real this time guys please spread this around

we realized we haven’t asked you what you want this zine to be, so here is poll with some different options for things we could do, but this still won’t set things in stone cause we’re aware that we’re working with a relatively small albeit amazing awesome and extremely appreciated audience, but it’ll give us a good idea for what direction you want the zine to go in.

some examples of what we mean for added coherence, please read before voting unless you wanna be like that guy in the Simpsons movie:

an eras tour zine (yes this is a Taylor swift joke shut up if you’re judging us you’re wrong) would be like different pieces dedicated to each, for lack of a better word, “thing” that Joel has done. @/inthelittlezine is a great example of this concept, except the mod has far better organizational skills than we ever could hope to

tourism brochure would be like we pick a specific thing Joel, such as esmp 1 or 2, or x life, or one of his hardcore/survival worlds (I haven’t listed Hermitcraft season 10 cause that’s still in progress but if you guys really really wanna, that too), and make an in universe guide to it expanding upon the lore and characters and builds and stuff. @/scarland-artbook is an amazing example of this, though of course we would be a much smaller scale of a project.

do you wanna tell a story? Or ride our bikes around the halls? We can’t help with the second one, we’re not very sporty people, but this option is both the most difficult and dangerous to the success of the zine, and the one that intrigues me specifically the most. Like, guys, I know I’m polling this, but I’m secretly hoping that this one wins. Like all the hoping. Ever. But I’m not gonna just say yeah let’s do this because if like only three people also wanna this zine will never get made and I will be really, really sad. This option is basically do we wanna take something Joel has done and work together to create an original universe/story based off of it, each contributing a small part of the story in comic or writing form. Unless you’ve been living under a rock and/or this post broke containment sorry if it did I assure I’m usually mostly sane, you probably know where I’m shamelessly stealing taking inspiration from. We heart you @/hotguycomiczine. If we went with this we would obviously create our own universe and storyline, and we’d try to base it off of one of Joel’s characters if possible. Also, if we went with this, we’d start the mod and application process and stuff and once we knew everyone who was going to be in the zine then we’d all get together and start working on the story, and this is the part I’m worried about because if we’re all stumped then I guess the zine is out of luck and I’d be sad. Also even if we did do this, like preemptively temper your expectations I am no where near as good as the legends at hotguycomiczine at organization and promotion and story writing and all that good stuff. However, if you have an idea for a story and want to share, send us an ask cause we might just end up using it.

I think the last two are mostly self explanatory.

please reblog for reach.

every so often I redraw them to show how much I’ve progressed in my art, and since mcr5 was confirmed, which, btw, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!freaking the heck out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, I thought this was a great opportunity to do another redraw

This is just a sketchy thing, I didn’t even fully shade it or anything cause I’m really tired, but I think it came out alright! Also I know Gerard “spent half his career denying vampire allegations” way is definitely a pasty boy basement dweller if there ever was one, but the killjoys lived in the desert their whole lives and were descended from people who lived in the desert their whole lives, so I figured that poison would have a darker complexion than Gee.

An argument against the car symbol is that drawing cars is harder than circles (planets)
