Reflecting On The Sparkletone Sign
Using The Infrared On The Sparkletone Cleaners Sign
I can’t believe that it took me until nearly halfway through this black and white project before I broke out the infrared camera. It is a way to really get some interesting black and white images. I have been documenting the end of some of the businesses down near the Levee in West Lafayette lately. They are all slowly closing and they will be…

Spooktober 2022, Day Twenty-Two
Spooktober is a 31 day event of coming up with original horror ideas based on prompts my writing group argues over. These are my entries.
SPOOKTOBER DAY #22 — Southern Gothic
TITLE: Charleston Sweat
PREMISE: In 1960s Charleston, racial disparity was still egregious, and violence against protesters had already been going on for years. Lazy rich rock and roll boys Dusty and Jim took drugs and drifted between the yacht club scene of Dusty’s parents and the black night club scene, where they sometimes played in rock bands slightly hipper than the Sparkletones.
They met Paula at a yachting to-do, and she begged them to show the world outside her sheltered upbringing. Love triangle ensues, with Paula favoring the less sexy, more soulful and sad-eyed Jim. Dusty can’t be cruel to her about it, but does find himself tempted to murder his BFF. Meanwhile, Paula gets into drugs and such.
HORROR ELEMENT: A background radiation of the horrific violence of racist oppression creeps around the edges of otherwise limpid and bright places. There’s blood on the decks, matey. The foreground white people realize on some level that they’re in a fantasy world build on enslaved flesh, but the hard work of doing anything meaningful about it is unimaginable. The poison gets to them.

‘Tis done finally! Critical Fan art of the Sparkletones and thier Malgublyet makeovers from episode #497. Episodes were there are makeovers are some of my all time favorites and this one was a doozy! It instantly sparked my creativity. Whenever possible, I love to brandish my love for costume/clothes design. Especially when you get the reactions we did from the crew from their new duds. While working on this I realized just how long it’s been since my last fan art I’ve done for Critical Hit. So this was more than overdue. Plus it gave me a chance to play with character designs themselves again.
For those interested, here is my breakdown for each character’s outfit:
Randus: Probably the easiest design for me to come up with, because as soon as the items “Bigger stupider goggles and elbow length gloves” were uttered, my thoughts immediately went to: “Oh, those cute fashion Goblins are going for mad scientist-meets-blacksmith.” So really it’s a more goofier version of his usual adventuring gear, with a hint of flare through out (since they are about to meet a very style over function God). I imagine that Randus doesn’t mind the look too much since at the very least, it isn’t like the formal attire he has to wear back at home (you know, clothes he has to keep clean and are far too lacking in the pocket department). However, he definitely keeps the bandanna on because #1: He always wears it when adventuring because he’s a sentimental mush. #2: Goblins think it works with the outfit. #3: I adore bandannas. Lol.
Orem: Oh my gods...this was amazing to design because the goal was coming up with something Orem would just absolutely be miserable in but still be sorta fashionable in a “retro/thrift store wizard shop” way. As soon as Rodrigo was an evil genius and told him it was a comical red wizard outfit; far different then Orem’s usual preferred fashion of light, form fitting, elegant, white and blue Eladrin silks...I had to take it up a notch and a half! I made the already suggested floppy wizard hat, even more floppy and implying that it’s made of a gross suede material that would just really amplify the feeling of a weighty, miserable hat. The outer robe I also wanted to be made out of a suede, very heavy material that wouldn’t match his hat. Tied in a gaudy silk braided belt. Lets face it, Orem seems the type to hate outfits in which patterns and/or textures don’t vibe well for an overall look. Which Lastly is why I came up with a “tacky” maroon star pattern robe for underneath his outer robe so it could clash and act as the stereotypical nod to wizards wearing robes with stars on them.
Little Sparkle: Sparkle’s all grey, Goblin vision of what a “rouge” outfit was fun. Honestly the first couple a drafts I drew, I was going to go with very plain textures and coloring, but I really wanted to get creative with this “all grey” look. My justification was that Malgublyet’s idea of “simple or plain” is still pretty chic. It also helped that her attitude was all more than pleased with the outfit, so I wanted to put her in something that would still be really cute on her. I was really close to drawing her with the hood up, but I was just so happy with how my redesign of her came out (it’s been so long since I drew her, I had to change it up), I wanted to show off her pretty face and plumage! By the way, I now want those baggy-ass pants. They look gloriously comfy!!!
Ket and Gai: Holy cow...it was probably the fact that Gai was fluffed to look like a poodle that I made it a promise to draw the group’s fashion makeover. It doesn’t help that in the past I actually worked as a groomer and I have done my fair share of poodle grooming, so drawing Gai was just a funny and amazing experience. As for Ket, I took advantage of the fact it had been so long since I last drew him to redesign him from the ground up...and DAMN, he’s never looked more handsome in my opinion. As for his outfit, I chose royal blue/purple color schemes mainly because #1: I hardly doubt Ket’s choice of clothing really has these sorts of nice cool and rich colors and verity is the spice of life. And #2: It was made kinda as a slight to Orem because he adores blue and I’m sure he very much dislikes this atmosphere in which Ket is the more better dressed and fancy individual. LOL. Psst!!! BTW, OMG THAT MUSTACHE!!! <3
Sekhar: Once the description for him was made I was so stoked to get to work on the amazing Sekhar Obleea! I really love designing armor when given the chance, and huge shoulder piece ones are some of my favorites! For this, I wanted our favorite large, suave, Vampire fellow, to look like a major kick-ass, fashionable, knight in shining armor that would make bad guys weep about their own outfits and flee in shame. It helped too that he seemed quite pleased with the look, which to me meant that it must be dazzling to look at since I see Sekhar as someone who does occasionally enjoy dressing well, since after all he is handsome as f**k and he knows it. Lastly, just as a cute nod, it has “M” shaped motifs through out the design as tribute to the amazing Malgublyet.
I hope you fellow Critical Hit fans enjoy this as much as I liked making it. I would have finished it sooner, but it’s been a bit rough finding free time to work on this because currently @messybitch802 are still working on our Hobbit Fanfiction/Fanart project. So time for art has been eaten up by that as of late. It will probably be a while, but I do really want to do some more nice finished pieces of the crew’s time spent in Malgublyet’s domain because I really enjoyed those episodes. Especially focusing on Malgublyet himself. I ADORE HIM. Here is a link to doodles of my design of him btw -->X feel free to check out that process.

Psspspspsps…..i hear you do writing stuff for spg 👁 do you have any fluffy x reader headcanons for The Jon? I’d love to see how you depict him in a relationship!!! The reader being gender neutral would be great! Thank you! ^^
!!! Yes!! The Jon’s a big comfort character of mine and this was really fun to do :D (I had to physically restrain myself from adding too much. I have have So Many Thoughts about him)
-He first saw you at a show. He was mingling with the crowds before they started and saw you and he just went, “woah”
-After the show, he came up to you, but he dragged Rabbit along so he could hide because he’s shy and didn’t know what to say to you
-Rabbit somehow managed to get him in front of you and escape, leaving you two together
-I have no idea if they can blush but if they can, he would be blushing so hard it would be a wonder that his head hasn’t exploded yet.
-He invited you to another show, and then another, and another, and another…
-He actually wasn’t the one to ask you out; The Spine and Rabbit coordinated both of you to go on a “blind date” (just tricking you two into going on a date)
-The Jon was reluctant to go, but once he saw you he immediately lit up.
-You went to the movies and saw a comedy-thriller. The Jon was practically glued to you the entire time. He liked it, but he liked holding onto you better.
-The Jon likes to put his hat on your head. He decorates it with feathers in the colours he knows you like, so, when he’s doing a show and the like, it feels like you’re up there with him.
-He likes eating quesadillas with you, even though he really shouldn’t eat the cheese (it clogs his gears). If you’re lactose intolerant, he finds a lactose-free version of cheese because he doesn’t want you to miss out on the deliciousness that is the quesadilla.
-He can talk to his koi(he’s named it Mx. Sparkleton) and it likes you as well. Whenever you show up, it does little flips and swisheys in his chest.
-You’re actually one of the only people who can mellow him out, which means that The Spine and Rabbit often call upon you when he gets out of hand.
-Whenever you sleep over, The Jon will hum some of the calmer songs to you while you fall asleep. He likes the way you smile when you figure out which song it is, all sleepy eyed and wrapped up in one of his blankets and grinning at him like he’s made of stardust and moon rays.
-He likes to call you his Birdie.
-He once tried to pick up knitting and he knitted a little you and him. He gave you the little doll of him and he kept the little doll of you. Whenever you don’t sleep over, he cuddles it when he goes into stasis. They’re not very good, but you both treasure them all the same.
Aaaand you get a picture of him that I just finished!! :D

So, is there any original series from Cartoon Network or Disney Channel/XD that would've remotely done good on Nickelodeon? If not, then Nick's pretty much the worst possible place to pitch a show given how aside from SpongeBob and Loud House, the only 2010s series to even finish their run there are TMNT 2012, Sanjay and Craig, and Adventures of Kid Danger.
Nah
If Adventure Time was picked up by Nickelodeon it would have lasted just 2 seasons tho...
I don't want to sound as a Nick Hater beacuse im not and it's dumb, i like It's Pony!, Middlemost Post and im excited for Big Nate, The Garfield Reboot & ZJ Sparkleton and next year im going to their Hotel in the Riviera Maya.
But these are the characters Nickelodeon chose to represent their animation studio on their 40th anniversary poster
SpongeBob is the only 90s show but it’s his Kamp Koral version
Avatar is the only 2000s show
Loud House is the only 2010s show
Middlemost Post is literally the only original show to get represented for 2020 Nickelodeon
The rest is preschool or a reboot/spin-off/adaptation of an existing IP
