Spamton's [Anger Management Service]
If you beat Spamton (normal form) with violence instead of taking the deal, he implies that he lets people pay to beat him up... 😰
This Werewerewire takes out his anger on Spamton monthly to avoid lashing out at his family. He overdid it a bit this time, so he added extra pay to cover Spamton's medical bills (plus a bit more, out of guilt).
Not a healthy dynamic, but going by his canon nature, Spamton would rather take advantage of a harmful situation than try to fix it, if he can benefit from it. He desperately needs the money, & having regular "customers" would give him at least SOME bit of stability in his stressful, uncertain life.
He's already suffering, so hey, a little more that he can actually get paid for is no [Big Deal], right? 😢
(I just GOTTA finish my WIPs, so I'm gonna try to content myself with rough sketches rather than only clean crisp lines. No more unattainable perfectionism! Phew!)
---
((Theory reference: Video clip of violently defeating Spamton. He lists very specific violent acts that Kris didn't do, which seems like his usual traumatic projection. Included is "yanking their noses," likely having been done to him since he has such a long nose. Yet he's mostly upset from not getting PAID for this particular beating. 😞))
Video clip description under the cut. Also, my image has Alt Text.
Video description: Kris lands the final blow with the FIGHT command, ending the regular Spamton battle. Spamton berates Kris with the following monologue:
"HEY!!! DIDN'T YOU EVER HEAR THE PHRASE, [Make Money, Not War]!
HOW'S AN INNOCENT GUY LIKE ME SUPPOSED TO [Rip People Off]
WHEN KIDS LIKE YOU ARE [Beating People Up],
[Spitting] IN THEIR EYES, THROWING SAND IN THEIR [Face],
[Stomping] ON THEIR TOES, YANKING THEIR [Noses],
AND NOT EVEN GIVING THEM A SINGLE CENT FOR IT!?
YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE ALL THAT EARLIER!
AND BEEN THE FIRST TO OWN MY [Commemorative Ring].
TOO BAD! SEE YOU KID!"
Spamton walks away.
End of video description.

It figures... I suddenly feel SO inspired to draw, when I'm sick with C0v1d & need to be laying down, what the heck?! 😵
Anyways, here, have a REALLY world-worn Spamton, who has no time for anyone else's shenanigans. 😼
(A bit of process & request for opinions concerning my multiple WIPs under the Read More)
I keep having SOOOO many WIPs, largely because though I usually set out to just do simple drawings, I end up accidentally making some details really realistic (despite having a preference for a simple anime style), so then I feel like I need to make ALL of the image have super realistic details too… but then I can't live up to those other parts despite months of work... but I'm too proud of those bits so I don't want to get rid of them… but aaajdsfhajdsfh…. 😖
And well, it happened again here. But I kept on actually enjoying experimenting this time, in spite of the software being such an obstacle (Clip Studio Paint can do so many cool things, but jeeeezzzz the interface is HORRIBLE & everything's INCONSISTANT, GAAAHHH!!!!), & so I ended up with this purposeful abomination. The mixture of simple & detailed textures, & decided I was OK with it this time.
But uhhh… IS this ok? Do y'all think I can release other works too if they have some detailed parts mixed in with simple parts kind of like this? (Even just thumbs-up or thumbs-down in the Replies would give me an idea of consensus.)
Cuz then maybe I wouldn't end up going like, a year between pieces… 😓 But I want people to enjoy them too… :'3

Spamton NEO's Ravenous Heart
(Image Descriptions available as ALT text. Three focus levels of the same image. Far out, way cool, & radical close-up! 😎 )
I was trying to find inspiration to finish my HUGE collection of Spamton WIPs languishing since last September... I then decided I'd just try to do a whole new pic from scratch, & on purpose, make it imperfect & rough. That, combined with listening to aggressive metal music, randomly drove me to draw this super edgy take on Spamton NEO's Chained Heart.
Poor sharp boi, he's been through a lot. But that's what makes him (& his owner) so tough!
I wanted this piece to end up with a sort of 1990s punk feel, & experimented with textures & various effects until I really liked how it turned out, without as much work as it could've been otherwise. And that made the imperfections feel welcome. I'm proud of this gnarly little dude!
(Process details & art-block update under the cut.)
While working on this, I felt compelled to add tons of detail. Which usually is what kills all my WIPs... But this time, I said to myself, I'll channel all my wish for detail into THIS pic, & make the rest more simple.
And it worked! I was able to finish a second drawing as well (which, well, was already detailed by then, but I was just agonizing over the coloring, & finally worked it out). So, this bad boy & all his cracks & scars got me going! & now I also organized the rest of my WIPs so they'll be easier for me to dive back into.
I've also switched to Clip Studio Paint for now, mostly because for some reason SAI has gotten laggy on me. :( I LOVE the default pen in CSP, & it has great potential for accessibility features... but DANG do SO many other aspects need adjustments, & the interface is SO unintuitive! GAH! But... I know enough to make use of it, so I'll keep trying.

YOU THERE
Give me your spamton headcanons! Any kind!
loki i love you so much you don't know how much i've been wanting to share my headcanons oh my GOD [scans over my 20+ page headcanon doc]
putting it under the cut because it's a lot of random stuff, i didn't categorize anything so there might be whiplash between everything:
– Five feet tall, previously 5'10 when he was still an Addison. I made Puppet Spam was 4'5 for the longest time, but I decided to say fuck it and make him taller. Still short in terms of Cyber City residents though, I like to imagine normal Addisons are around 6ft.
– I sometimes forget to draw it and I can't really animate it consistently, but his knuckles are constantly bruised because he keeps punching things whenever he's angry. Experiences really severe temper tantrums/outbursts and usually resorts to violence.
– Do not touch his fucking hair if he doesn’t know you. He’ll legitimately plan your murder if you cut any of it off– and that’s not a hyperbole. He can’t grow it back and his hair is his pride and joy, so he will genuinely track you down and rip your goddamn soul out of your chest. It's also permanently black (besides the grey but that's from stress), he changed his coding when he was famous to have black hair. Could've been reversible, but some things kinda stuck after he fucked himself up and became a doll.
– Weird mixture of Addison and mannequin. Mysteriously fell incredibly ill with a virus that was destroying his coding after his phone went dead silent, and became desperate to the point of converting his remaining data into an inanimate object. Kind of like converting a PDF into a JPEG with the compressed quality and all. Kinda iffy with this one and not really canon-inspired, I swap between him gradually and suddenly turning into a puppet. Used to base it off the Acid Theory but I'm tryna be creative sjfkdsjf he did probably fall in/get pushed a few times but it didn't burn him to the point of no return, it definitely stung though
– Blurry vision in both eyes because he had the audacity to peek into the Shadow Crystal multiple times. Hacked his glasses to somewhat correct it, but it only works to a certain extent.
– Talks through a voice box. He really doesn't need to move his mouth at all to speak and has limited range of motion (he can't close his mouth all the way and has no tongue), but he tries to purely out of habit.
– gayest man in cyber city
– Eats basically anything. From spaghetti-code to cardboard, his body is kind of forced to digest all of it, but it obviously hurts him if it's not supposed to be eaten.
– Sometimes doesn't recognize his own reflection.
– Riddled with viruses for so long that he probably wouldn't ever be able to get rid of them. He could probably minimize them if he got treatment, but only to an extent. They're a permanent part of him now.
– His nose is simultaneously the strongest and weakest part of his body. Either pierces through metal or bends like a bendy straw depending on if you throw him or just lightly poke it.
– Terrifyingly amazing aim. Can throw a pipis at a specific target without much thought. His pipis explode.
– Calmed down a bit as the years went on (because he lost hope LMAO), which isn't saying much considering he's still extremely rabid. Was extremely volatile when he first decided to give up the good life and live in the dumpster. Frequently tried to break into the mansion, probably stole a few cars, mugged a few Plugboys, picked fights with other malware on the streets. He still continues to do these things, of course, but to a lesser degree.
– Spiteful cunt. Wrong him once and he'll never forget your name. Rarely apologizes even if he's in the wrong.
– Can't say names properly unless he's being completely serious.
– Upholds his end of most deals, but words himself carefully so that if what he has to bring to the table isn't up to par with what the other person asked of him (which is 99% of the time), he can easily swindle his way out of it. No refunds on the sword. It's broken? I told you that. Cut anything, two pieces. You heard me clearly, and you obviously had no qualms with it from what I could tell. (Except he'd say that in a really fucked up and more condescending way.)
– Constantly hears static, but it grows and fades depending on his mood.
– Laughs at the most inconvenient times. Someone's threatening him? He'll chuckle. He's nervous? A little giggle. He just received some devastating news? Roaring laughter.
– Very unreliable narrator and storyteller. Tends to exaggerate things that have happened to him (doesn't mean that he didn't go through some wild shit though).
– Doesn't celebrate his birthday, for obvious loneliness and conflicting self-resentment reasons. Also because he doesn't keep track of the time. He don't know what day it is fam.
– Can mimic voices really well, though he still retains that bitcrushed/noisy overlay and the ad pop-ups.
– Tends to chew on things occasionally as a nervous habit. He doesn't exactly have a tongue, so he instead picks up random small items scattered around (ie. a pencil) and chews on them. Worst case scenario he just grinds his teeth together.
– Gestures with his hands a lot when he speaks. It literally looks like he's going through an emote hotbar. Also very expressive when it comes to his face, despite rarely being able to frown properly. You can garner a lot about his mood from his glasses.
– Mostly bark over bite. Tends to make empty threats a lot when he's startled in hopes his loudness will be intimidating, but will indeed bite if he needs to… or wants to. Sometimes there’s no bark at all, and he’ll literally bite.
– Has a weird fascination with shiny objects. He steals many things that seem valuable or visually appealing and hoards them in his shop.
– Once you put the KEYGEN into NEO, it takes a little bit for him to actually take over the body because he's transferring his data onto it. Permanently. Even when he becomes small Spamton again, he's permanently linked to the machine now, so he can change into it at will. Technically not at will because he has trouble controlling it, but you get what I mean.
this was insanely long but thank you for letting me ramble <3
