Ahaha no I can see it. Maybe it's the big pupils? I added them in to give it a bit more relatability.
Wanted to make a spooky season version of this accounts profile picture.
Merchant interface concept.

The little project still continues. I don't want to get too much into the meat of it right now, I don't even have a name for it.
I have a weird fear that christening it will somehow doom it.
Random memory mid-dungeon of never getting 'the Chosen' title from Mythic Helya no deaths run, because at Helya a hunter auto-attacked and ruined the entire run.

I felt like the PTSD dog meme in the middle of Maw of Souls.
I dunno what to make of Legion remix. It just sort of, is?

Legion was my favourite expansion, its flaws aside, I didn't expect it to give me that same nostalgia renewed but I'm still slightly underwhelmed. I can't even put my finger on why exactly.
I've not played much of it, but when I got to the little island with all the vendors and everything else just crammed together, I felt like I was on the landing zone of a private server (not a compliment).

From your post I do wonder if my lowered expectations are legit ahaha
Obviously we've had events on the forums in the past, with one moderator just crashing out going bananas - but there's just so much more close proximity in a discord.

Biases toward friends, the potential of being judged by ones peers for your decisions etc.
The maligned reputation the forums have for being nasty meanie bo beanie place. Meanwhile the same shit is happening all the time in discords, it's just intensely more behind the scenes and bizarrely more political.
I absolutely riced Legion mate, I've done them all ahaha.

But it's nice to hear the mission table stuff is shut of in the remix, that was a tedium I didn't enjoy.
That sounds a wise way to it. I couldn't play the MoP remix because I was busy with uni at the time, just how fast is the remix anyway? My time investment for WoW is low atm is my only concern.
Can't make my mind up on Legion Remix - do I do something I'm comfortable with so I know I'll likely enjoy, or a class I don't really play?

I have so many Priests, Warlocks, DKs and Druids as it is.. But I'm not too attached to the other classes.

If you know basic kabbalah it's actually not too hard to make a golem out of a labubu. Don't recommend it though. They have a pre-existing body-dharma. As soon as they wake they run straight for the sea. V hard to counter. Lost the first one. No idea what it's doing out there. Moved like lightning.
I knew not what I was entering until it dawned on me on the inside..
After treading into that Forgotten Shadows discord that's just 99% AI, nothing like this surpises me anymore
I've never really took on just how good PureRef is as a resource until working on this today.
I know I can push it further, but this is where I'm at for now.

Because of all the creatures come to have a nibble, whalefalls seem so rich in colour, but I'm not sure how colourful this world is yet.

It's still really early days tho.
Trying to concept a whale themed merchant individual.

I had the idea of basing them around a whalefall during this sketch. Although it needs some work to be a bit more visually interesting.

OceanAutism remains strong.
Can't help but agree with the ego-boosting comment after what I've witnessed over the years, and personally experienced.

It frequently seems to go hand in hand with GMs who are totally clueless as to wtf is even going on in their guild on a social level too.
As a completely unrelated aside - if any of my fellow UK prison islanders need to get into your imgur etc, proton has a free VPN you can use.
Like I'm genuinely curious. I'm torn between, people are entitled to their own time and enjoyment on the vidyagame, no doubt.

But I think there's a bit of a grey area when you're like, an open guild going "come join us!!!"

More than happy to be wrong on this one, just pure conjecture.
I went on a train of thought about housing RP and I'm curious -

I've been in multiple instances over the years, where a guild will advertise it's recruiting new members, but then noone in the guild actually wants to RP with newcomers.

Am I dick for thinking that's a dick move?
Nevermind I actually put a bit of effort in.

I might change up the ENTER at the bottom tho.
You may call my web layouts functional but excessively boring, but I prefer the term - reverse geocities.
esoteric.

But there's an alluring catharsis to the idea of explaining the inspirations behind the pieces.

I may also put 'Calendar' on the main site. It was never finished, the inspiring situation changed, we'll see.
I was umming and aahing ages ago about adding little, introductions before the actual artwork for these things.

But looking back on the projects, especially with distance from Strange Animals now, I'm a lot more comfortable with the idea.

There's definitely a want in me to try to be somewhat -
