Finally, I have taken a great step in becoming the most revered bootleg Stedilnik on the internet. Ngl this is also the hottest Chevron has ever looked and I'm all here for it.

Yeah it's all just been lost in a brawl now. Can't make heads or tails of it. It's probably for the best you don't involve yourself in this stuff. AI art users are dumb, it's common sense, no need to partake in a war that's got nothing to do with you. Just lame as fuck, really.

The mothhusky thing, right? It's a mess. I feel so bad for them cos of the AI ripping of their work and I can't help but feel the tracing allegations are a knee-jerk reflex of AI bros trying to smear them. Even if it is a vocal minority, this perception of art is as infuriating as it is upsetting.

Started redrawing a bunch of video thumbnails to make a daily habit of drawing. First to be redone; Ready or Not!

Final video of the 10K trio, a long-form yap session masquerading as a QNA! Check it out below. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUDg...

Second video of the trio; a shoutout for creators smaller than me (and a couple bigger). I wanted to disperse the clout so others could be as fortunate as I am and gain an audience. Of all the three, I implore you to watch this the most!

What's actually crazier is how angry people can get over this. Being teabagged in a game has sent grown men on stream into frenzies. I don't know how people find it anything but funny.

Been a while since I posted here. Taken the last month to work on some videos, one of which is below. I'll likely post the other two tomorrow and the day after. Here's the first of the bunch! youtu.be/azAk41VJYqc

Gave it a whirl on shading. Think I did decent! It's not a Disco Elysium portrait by any means but happy with the lighting on the side and the pose of the character. I shall move onto my next hyperfixation post-haste.

Shading is whack on this doodle but happy to report that I have been able to draw a feline that actually looks like a feline for the first time. Rejoice!

Was watching through a segment of @designframe.bsky.social's stream discussing my SoTM video in relation to FNAF and saw this. Seeing comedic bits like this evoke an actual reaction from someone is such a huge source of vindication. I'm not unfunny, thank God!

Bastard Smug @larubric.bsky.social · Aug 15

Hey all! With Vos Draemar finished, I’m able to start focusing on the 10k special for September. Part of it will be a QNA so if you’ve got any burning questions, either leave them on the new community post or in the comments here. Thank you!

I haven't posted on my socials in a hot minute. I've been embroiled with something I've dearly loved for a long time and, last night, finally let go of it.

Seven. Long. Years.

A commemorative video is up on Twitter as Bsky won't let me upload here. May even put on the channel. We shall see.

The like to dislike ratio on the newest video is funny to me because since the new upload dropped it's remained steady at 89% only fluctuating up and down hourly by small decimals. This video has become this channel's Battle of Hacksaw Ridge.

Sometimes I get a DM or message going 'hey, I just got into your videos, good stuff!' and all I can imagine in my head is this fuckass image

The video did pretty well - well-received overall and I think I did a very good job - but some comments fervently defending SoTM do worryingly illustrate that FNAF fans have never touched any other horror game in their lives. It is tragic thinking so few have played Outlast.

Suffered immense pain to get this video done but here it is. 10k special is yet to come so stick around for that! Likes and retweets appreciated to boost the reach on this. youtu.be/lwcfpx3PU9A
