I honestly miss the blizzards, I hope we get some this Winter.
Back when like 3 ft of snowfall was dumped on us, my family would dig out a maze or a ‘racetrack’ in the snow for Bud to run through.

I honestly miss the blizzards, I hope we get some this Winter.
Back when like 3 ft of snowfall was dumped on us, my family would dig out a maze or a ‘racetrack’ in the snow for Bud to run through.
In a pale autumn forest a white and brown dog named Buddy stands on top of a fallen log. The ground is covered in pale brown, beige, and gold leaves. Some trees still retain bright gold autumn leaves.
Woke up to snow today, it kinda gives a small relief to see an early November snowy day again here.
Unrelated but here’s a recent autumn photo of Buddy, he’s doing so well for a 12 y/o dog :,>
I kinda want to do a design breakdown… I realize I’ve never really gone into my thought process, inspirations, narrative reasons or anything else like that behind any of my characters. Might be cool idk :o

I really like Naveen, my fav of the main crew at the moment.
I loved the OG X/Y… I kinda miss Pokemon Amie, I hope that comes back on day. tbh a standalone game that’s just that but expanded on would be nice.
I had like $30 on my Switch trapped on my account… so a couple weeks ago I got Pokemon ZA :>
Besides Tomodachi Life coming out next year, I had 0 plans of getting anything else.
I’m taking my time with it, and it’s way more fun than I expected and the writing is fun :>
Finally posted some art after way too long- maybe will have some fun sketches to put up later :>

There are examples of: Lance’s mouth open and closed, his eyes, and what his ‘back’ looks like. The text at the top-left reads: LANCE - God of Blood - Immortal Hivemind Detailed Reference The text at the bottom-left is list that reads: - Hive Mind of Leeches - Used peoples flesh/organs to construct a bipedal ‘body’ - Used to look very, very different. - Engorged with Consumed Red Blood, but his blood is Neon Green. - Doesn’t have hair, those are veins.

More detailed reference version for this tangled leech-thing. Kinda yucky tbh, we should throw rocks at this guy.

A digital artwork of an aquatic enviroment that casts light upon a woman whose body resembles an octopus, hair resembles a mann o’war, and her face mostly obscured by shadow. One of her four arms touches a watery fish that swims above her, the other three rest in idle positions.

25.10.2025 18:09 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0A surreal digital artwork where we take the perspective of someone holding a corrupted crowbar. They're falling through a dark void, pursued by the ominous Interloper Entity, a black and magenta corrupted specter with an umbrella-like head. In the sky is a floating island, down below is checkerboard ground. A statue-like bust stares upwards with pale white eyes, she's damaged and coated in darkness. Various objects float upwards, while small A-Posing human figures fall downwards. This is fanart for the Interloper Alternate Reality Game.
A large, dimly lit room is full of icy mist, four characters stand in the foreground, while a fifth descends a small flight of stairs. Camillia, an icy dragon-like woman stares forward coldly and confidently, unamused by Polaris’s theatrics. Zélior, a isopod fae knight glances over to Camilla, their hands rest on their sword at the ready just in case. Endemama, floats above the crowd, a confident smile on their face. Euridice, a pink tiefling nervously looks around the odd room. Polaris, is a small undead man who holds up the same invitation all the other guests have.
A large page of colored in sketches 8 of the original character, Ember. There’s a jagged border acting as a frame for the image. The largest sketch is a prominently featured portrait. The second largest is on the right, a full body sketch of Ember with her bangs pushed back and hair floating, revealing an oversized dark third eye. Next to it is two smaller portraits, one of Ember’s head tilted forward displaying her third eye when activated, and the second is Ember intensely staring. In the bottom right corner, there is a tiny strange looking Ember. On the leftmost side are three more sketches, one of Ember lying on her back, the other is just her outstretched arm alit with purple fire magic, and the last is another portrait of Ember looking up with intrigue and pupils.

She has hair inspired by Portuguese Mann o’ War, a watery fish draped around her shoulders acting as a covering scarf, and her body resembles a cool brown octopus, her face is slightly human but is mostly obscured by shadows. In the top-left corner is her name written in stylized text: “ AQUARIA “ Directly below are the color samples used for her design.

Still workshopping this design, I like where it is but I think I’ll tweak/rework parts of it later.

A stylized simple reference sheet for Don, a lanky plant-like man with magenta petals and pale green flesh.
For now it’s mostly this one . . . but only really because I need to figure out and practice how he moves/talks.

Maybe will post some WIPs idk
A strange corrupted umbrella-like man descents from a broken version of the payload map Upward from TF2, the sky is pitch black as we look up from the perspective of a player character holding a corrupted crowbar.
‼️Warning: Interloper Spoilers‼️
I had a lot of fun reinterpreting the U-Man’s design for this.
Here’s the reference I drew inspiration from, it’s a frame from Interloper C: Skycrash :>

Also its narrative/themes are really strong too!
‼️Warning‼️
Discussing Spoilers

Themes like: the ethics of AI, experimentation, mistreatment/ commercialization of women, and how ‘Mona’ a haunted ‘ai’ captured by Eida ends up filling that desire for cruelty & a ‘gf’.
Disturbing but effective.

Interloper is probably my favorite ARG, I love its smart usage of the source engine and different game mechanics.
I’m excited for what’s next . . .
