NAOMI: …Everyone should join me. I'm... so... lonely... YUKA: Big brother, I'm so lonely...

two different girls, two different deaths, only one thing to say to the boy who failed them.

#corpse party #corpse party rebuilt #satoshi mochida #naomi nakashima #yuka is there..... in spirit ;DDDD #get it bc shes dead. this is the ending where both naomi and yuka dieeeee #anyway i know this ending was ported in PART to bloodcovered but like... not the naomi part... thats the BEST part... ig it just didnt work #something about satoshis greatest fear being that theyll be lonely . #also he let both the girl he loved and his little sister die by his cowardice. #no wonder hes feelin haunted lol. also hes literally being haunted. #interestingly it takes .5 seconds for ghosts (even nice ones like yuka and naomi) to turn evil in rebuilt?!!??! they NERFED the school l8r? #it takes. so. long. in the other games. not here. ^_^ its been 5 minutes naomi has made up her mind she wants 2 kill now. #i will always love rebuilt :3 #my nyart #ofc i have 180000 alternate versions ig ill put em on insta as usualllllll #i miss queue #as always i am queueing bc its 3 am

and now for something stupid

#but really i also just wanted to play around w this sort of coloring style bc its been FOREVER since ive used it #and i think i can make it look better now #AND i think i can make more sillay stuff like this and not have it take as long w cleaning up lines #anyway now you all understand the terrible dynamic between these three #phobo's infodump text is just copypasted from the wikipedia page for knives. #julliet ALSO uses knives is the thing so hes actually mansplaining < JOKE #he just wants to share. even if it gives her a headache. but he wouldnt mansplain he doesnt have it in him. hes ok with felonies tho #but julis life hasnt known peace since she was told to take care of the newbies #and shes ALSO a newbie (just slightly less so) so really this is probably just tartarus hazing her #theyd take one look at the two disorganized unserious overeager newbies and think ''you know what would be fucking hilarious'' #and pass them onto the neurotic slightly-less-newbie who takes everything as seriously as possible. disaster combination. #i cannot stress enough that this is a group of bandits and murderers theyre NOT above hazing. #deimos actually is doing the best job at it since he is stealing as we speak #i mean hes not supposed to do it to his teammates but still. on the right track #as for the dynamic between deimos and phobos themselves its like. theyre just bros. theyre both pretty similar in personality #except deimos is kinda more mean and cynical while phobos can be kinda. dense and naive despite literally where hes at in life #but most of the time theyre basically beavis and butthead #i would also like to stress that juli is not being homophobic she just already cannot stand these guys and cant believe the audacity #but. complete misunderstanding. karma for stealing wallets ig #this will never be cleared up by anyone ever #but again thats not their dynamic they are just beavis and butthead. and i guess that makes juli daria LOL #finn's ocs #finn's art

Wow, so umm... This looks bad, not only is it inaccurate due to using the wrong ink demon design [unless this is confirmation BATIM Ink Demon has been outright retconned... Which would make me pissed enough to make a new post just about THAT] but from an art standpoint this is just... Confusing and poorly done.

I wouldn't care if this was fanart, of course you should support young, indie artists... But for a Graphic Novel making sure your cover doesn't look like something Butch Hartman shat out in an afternoon is kind of important. Remember they're going to be asking us to give money to them to read this. The artist likely won't see any of that money and neither do the authors most of the time, not to mention this art screams of the artist being underpaid and overworked.

Like they Had to get something on someone's desk and their boss said 'good enough'. A concept Joey Drew Studios is very familiar with considering the allegations of poor working environments that Kindly Beast. Not to mention Mike Mood admitting in a Reddit AMA that they did in fact rush projects like Showdown Bandit. [Which they sold at full price]

He also says they can in fact say no or yes to designs involving their IP. Either Mike or Meatly had to say yes to this cover, according to his own damn words.

And do you really think this company in particular would care enough about its fanbase to not sell them garbage? They have done exactly that on several occasions. It's not like they care particularly about art either, considering their previous use of AI Art. There was no apology or even posts addressing it... Instead, they just rushed out an archives update to their game to get people to stop talking about it... Even forgetting an entire character in it. Again

This company is [or at least SHOULD BE] on thin ice when it comes to being suspected of misleading their fans or rushing out crappy products to them.

So with all that context in mind, I'm gonna talk about why this cover sucks ass.

The light sources are all over the place? Why does it look like someone put maces or knight armor on his shoulders but it's just flesh?? It looks both gross and weird [not in a good way either]

To explain more I'm going on a rant below but sadly this seems to have been confirmed to not just be a rough pass but the final cover and man... I am not excited about this graphic novel just at all. This felt like it really drained any possibility of it turning out good for me and I already had expectations low.

Okay first point, the light sources?? And there is no consistency here with the shadows or lighting, it looks like there's a hundred light sources all at once but none of them are even consistent!

the arrows here represent all the different light sources I can make out and yet the the shadow clearly implies there's only one. I understand wanting to use highlights to give the character a more clear shape but then just give him one or two lights behind him or in front of him? No matter how u follow the light sources, the highlights make no sense and the shadows make even less sense.

Why are the shoulders like that? Like on the legs it's a little understandable, at least those are clearly very heavily affected by perspective, for me I think they are so exaggerated it makes it look like one of the legs is either huge or one is small but that's maybe subjective.

However, the shoulders are unjustifiable, what happened there, what did they do??

I could pick on so much more honestly, how the color choices of piss yellow with no other colors being used, and the harsh pitch black being used for every part of his body is weird. How it looks straight out of Butch Hartman's recent crappy art. But to put bluntly bad start! Also what the HELL is going on with this background??

Seems once again the Bendy team is fine with sending out stuff thinking it's "Good Enough" for Bendy fans and honestly the people trying to tell me to "Be Grateful" for this are just proving that no matter how many times you betray your audience some of em will defend you!

Which is sad tbh. If anything we should be putting MORE pressure on the Bendy team to do better. Cause we deserve better than this, honestly we do. There are amazing artists in the bendy community who could do so much better for a cover. They've employed their fan artists before... Wouldn't it be great to do that for such a lore important book? The book that gives us the identity of one of the main characters in BATIM? The character you spend the entirety of Chapter 4 fighting to save? Not to mention will give several major characters their human designs?

But I guess this is... Good enough...

#ramblez #batim #batdr #bendy and the ink machine #bendy and the dark revival #sorry I've been on a positivity streak with bendy I know but I have to be honest and being honest I think this sucks lol #Im sure plenty of people Disagree and while I would argue this is more objective than subjective people will ignore me if they want to #maybe Im just a hater idk #but I do know one thing I sure do hate this and Im pretty sure Ill hate this novel and its designs #but maybe I wont ya never know #anyways if they do retcon batim ink demon I will make a post abt how much I dislike batdrs ink demon design #and why I think all the people saying its better than the og seriously arent understanding #what made batims ink demon good or character design in general tbh #to put bluntly just bc something is popular opinion DOES NOT make it right or a good idea design wise #not everyone is qualified to be a character designer and thats just good advice in general tbh #anyways yeah thats it sorry im being mean today </3 #I simply think corporations shouldnt be able to rush out crappy products to their fans and get paid for it but ig thats a hot take now #but esp with how bad that updated employee handbook was too and it still had stolen renders from fans in it... #yeah I dont think theyve learned a damn thing

[birdricks]

doing my anatomy study is fucking torturous bc every time i read some shit like “birds dont have a diaphragm” my brains like “hmmmm…… birdperson…..” and then i end up thinking abt him instead of studying

#it is rlly fun tho. thinking deeply abt alien (bird guy) biology all the time #ok typing this bc its fun and counts as revision. #(if i get anything wrong idgaf. this is from memory) #birds only have tiny kinda rigid lungs so they have a bunch of air sacs instead for air to flow into #and no diaphragm! so they use the intercostal muscles to breathe in and out #which r like the muscles around the ribs #but also means if u squeeze them around the middle they cant breathe #birds also have a kinda weird digestive system due to not having teeth etc #but of course bp .. does. but his diet is similar to that of seed eating birds #we dont see him eat i dont think. ? #its possible he has a mixed style of digestive system.. with a stomach like a human and gizzard like a bird #assuming he just swallows seeds whole without chewing lol #hmmm… id say its probably more likely he just has a proventriculus/gizzard combo and maybe like. a larger proventriculus than normal birds #hard to say. we dont rlly know enough abt his diet ig #altho i imagine it to be omnivorous #also smth fun is birds often swallow stones to help digest seeds. now if he chewed it probably wouldnt be necessary. but think abt it. silly #ok take this w a pinchhh of salt. but diet aside the teeth could be used simply for speech. #i vaguely remember learning abt that in language. #also he does Canonically have a cloaca ! wont go into that rn. but hmmm. much to think abt. #basiclaly bp pussy reallllll #kinda. #in the ways that matter ! #oooooh what else. #ooooh. yes. birds dont have vocal chords. they have a syrinx for vocalisation #but of coursee bp can talk. #butttt there are birds that can imitate human speech. so its possible bp just uses similar techniques for speech #but it also gives him a far greater control over his voice than most … making him perfect as the lead singer :] #oh and ummm. he veryyyy likely has hollow bones. so even tho hes huge hes deceptively light. TEE HEE #ok thats it. i need to actaully revise this shit now LOL #but ooohhgghhhg. i need him.

"your violence is unspeakable now " ive always committed grievous acts of violence and war crimes . You are just mad at me for killing someone who matters

#hector #book 22 #book 24 #again imbued with themes ig #cause while yeah this is haha silly #it is also very much a take ive seen lol #less so in the case of achilles and more so with hector post patroclus #and can be applied to practically any other character #like there is horrific violence and devastation everywhere in this story #the evil isnt the person acting it is the totality of it. war and violence make monsters of men #there is a totality of devastation that is recognized in what happens between the 3 #but it isnt just limited to the characters alone. if u limit it to that it is so so deeply one dimensional #anyways if yall can stomach war crimes discussion #i would forever recommend the doc the act of killing #every so often i think about it and just…..god. #i havent watched the second doc still and im sad about that cause it is about a victim confronting the abuses exacted by these people #but the act of killing is just…..interviewing these people years after they horrifically maimed and killed so many. and then #asking them to describe the act. and how they felt. and how they feel now. and if it was justified. is just……god fr a must watch if u can #handle that type of pain. both visually and in spoken word #but yeah. nuance is the point of this aside lol #oh but also just cause no one gets upset over all those men who die. like that post that is like is the whole book just like this #these descriptions of death at a massive scale in another catalogue type form #hell ik people have talked about character kill counts on here. i have been that bitch #to prove a ferocity in battle or whatever the hell #but there is no recognition of that depravity. it is only when it touches someone we know by the narrative to be loved #to be powerful. to be good. to be worth something to the people around him #and to see him act with his family and in battle before the end and with the gods and #humanity makes it hit more obviously. that is how stories work. but to step back from that and recognize #oh so many men also died terribly. so many things happened to their bodies. and they only get a line. that is what gets me

If I'd actually posted all my pjo art when I made it instead of hoarding it like a little goblin for no apparent reason today I might have been known as the octavian guy instead of the joffrey guy...scary thought...

#.txt #went thru my old pjo art the other day...man #I actually didn't draw him that much compared to how much I draw joffrey lol. ig i had more shame #but also there's simply less to his character. what am I even supposed to take inspiration from #'less to his character' there's NOTHING #woahhh a villain that poses no real threath has no depth and is just there to be laughed at how interesting #i say this as if I didn't make up 1048399574 scenarios in my head with him #when i wasn't into got yet but i was like. vaguely aware of joffrey I'd look at him like woah octavian fancast #now I'm like. um no??? they have a completely different vibe you idiot -_- #what did I see in this guy like genuinely #ok but the thing is that octavian enjoyers were so removed from the source material. I mean obviously they were. bc he's not well written #or even that much of a character tbh. ofc you'd have to make shit up #so like what im saying is that maybe I woulnd't have been actually. bc I enjoyed him in the evil rat bastard way #meanwhile everyone else was like 'aw poor baby :( rick sucks he doesn't understand him :(( I could treat him better' #once I did see someone say that about joffrey but they turned out to be a weirdo so. lol #'what did I see in this guy he's a nothing character...anyway I love tommen and myrcella my little meowmeows <3' #they're very layered TO ME. my beloved canon ocs

#reason i wanted to change koe's design was bc i felt like the first one was a bit too basic ig? #wanted to give it more personality beyond being a maid outfit #so a funkier skirt and shorter sleeves and gloves and stuff. idk its more koe and less maid. but still maid #other than that obviously are the two wholly new characters #honestly designing them was interesting in a way bc it was like reverse engineering andys face #i think she takes after her mom more tho #but she also does try to emulate her so thats also part of it #honestly andy is really similar to amary in a lot of ways not just bc of the whole princess thing but the family dynamics to a degree too #there are still some pretty big differences (andy wasnt abused but her father is still really strict and constraining out of worry #and amary's mom was actually kinda the polar opposite of andy's and their emulations are completely different too) #BUT #look read cepheus's flaw. hes not going to be a good guy lol #hes the type that starts out nice enough on the surface but when pushed it will become. again. ends justify the means #very.... 'my way or the highway' type guy i guess. but with power #cassiopeia s more noble than that though despite any arrogance in her skills #its like one side of a balancing act lost #again look at her power. its wings! wings mean freedom! no restraint! touch the sky! #unfortunately kingdoms arent usually about that is the thing #maybe andy can fix it now though #but honestly andy percy and ursa are pretty much all just here for convenience #it wouldve been easier to have a ref post lumping all royals and andy's entourage together. and ursa i guess idk where else shed go lol #i thought abt putting her w the zodiac knights but their theme is too uniform. background color is the same tho so same affiliation #w the royals #also does anyone get my amazing joke. shes a major. major ursa. ursa major. i know i know #ill be here all week #finn's ocs #oc references #finn's art
