alr so i tried to turn the hm 2023 hhg designs into modern human dudes bc i need them for my mall cop au but OMG I CANT TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY WHO DECIDED THEY WOULD LOOK LIKE THAT!!! apologies if these designs are garbage, i tried 😭😭😭
(i do not consider these guys the same characters as the ones from the rides, the comics, or the 2003 movies btw, theyre too different in shape/facial language to be the same guys, end of discussion)
anyways yeahh uh in my au these sillies live together in the same apartment complex as bruce, ben, constance, the mariner, and some other haunts that im gonna turn into human designs later. they play d&d with kent sometimes and their car keeps breaking down (hence the whole hitchhiking thing)
-phineas probably does business or finance or something that makes him need to travel a lot (he still lives w ezra and gus because living alone in your mid 50s/60s is lonely, and honestly good for him)
-this ezra looks like a fashion guy or smthn, idk he fancy ill figure it out later. he doesnt look like spamton in this movie and it makes me sad
-gus is their roommate who has been to prison multiple times and cant hold down a job. they keep him around because they love him and he "mysteriously conjures" free tickets to local plays a lot
Tumblr media
(i will give phineas and ezra their hats + phineas his coat back i promise but i needed a ref of their hair/casual attire, so no hats/coats just yet)
heres the ref i used btw (i brightened it in app im too lazy to export it tho)

I don't think I mentioned how I got into Worms here before?
I must've first heard of Worms when I was around 11-12, I think some nearby kids around my age played one of the mobile games (dumbphones were still common, maybe?) and the SFX of the Holy Hand Grenade sounds familiar... Actually I'm not even sure if the playing part is true because I didn't peek at their phones, but I DEFINITELY recognise the HHG sound. My memory is garbage but also oddly specific at times.
I never actually played a Worms game ago until February this year, when a friend suggested Ultimate Mayhem and we played it together. I won't go in details but things kinda unraveled from that point.
I've seen the 2D vs 3D division in the fanbase. I've seen the Rumble controversy (I like Rumble even if I'm usually around the middle or the lower half of the leaderboard). I've seen the NFT announcement which thankfully never came true. People want a new mainline game, the last one was W.M.D in 2016 (ignoring the mobile version which is also not free).
I feel like I missed out a lot. My childhood self was more into action and action-adventure stuff, but maybe I could've enjoyed it back then.
I made myself a wormsona. I've also seen old art (mostly from mid 2000's) with so-called sigworms - artists' self-representations as worms. "Sigworm" seems to have originated on some Team17 forum which got shutdown around a decade ago and nobody uses this word anymore. When I think about it, a sigworm and a wormsona are the same thing? I also noticed the Worms art from that time tended to be more angular and edgy. I found some really old animations made in Flash on DeviantArt and Newgrounds. Weird experience overall.
