No Wonder I Couldn't Find The Original, I Completely Forgot It Might Have Been From Multiple Bullets!

Day 11 done! For some reason, I can't seem to make Cub look anything other than menacing when I draw him. Believe it or not, the fangs actually made him look nicer. Though since this is permit office Cub, menacing might be the right look

Day 22 done! Meet my take on Keralis: robo-Keralis! When looking at his skin, there's no interpretation of him as a human that doesn't horrify me, so I imagine him as a silly little robot guy

And, as a bonus, have an XB for a late day 20!

Day 3 complete! I'm trying to improve my face drawing skills by incorporating features from IRL hermits into their characters. It's not even close to perfect, but I think I'm learning a lot, and that's what matters!

For an alt hermit, I went with season 9 skulk possessed Cub! Figuring out the skulk texture was fun. Sadly, my camera is not a fan of how reflective the graphite is, so the picture looks a little off

DC focuses way too much on Batman and Batman adjacent characters, to the point where I think it’s actually detrimental to the story.

One example is DC vs Vampires, where for six issues (half of the entire series), Hal Jordan was the primary antagonist we were following. Then at issue six he gets taken out weirdly easily (can writers please stop cutting off limbs so easily, bone is not a cardboard tube) and replaced with the completely new villain of Nightwing. At this point sure he’s a character that we’ve seen around, but there’s not that connection due to the whole build up with Hal. If they wanted Nightwing to be the big bad hidden in the shadows they still could have done that without getting rid of the character we were following the entire time. Then they go and make it so some vampires can defy Nightwing, but not Hal who canonically has the strongest will? Like they literally set it up for him to take out Nightwing and take his place, and they wouldn’t even have to make up a random alien blood plot point to make him immune to the usual vampire weaknesses. But instead the entire plot is reliant on the Batman characters despite it being DC vs Vampires. Plus they made Harley the linchpin because she’s toxic to them (despite them eating the Joker just fine), and plenty of other characters could easily be toxic, ie metamorpho, but they had to go with her because she’s gotta be put in everything like the rest of the Batman characters.

Day 29 done! My weird headcanon for Skizz is that he isn't actually an angel or a regular avian, but rather in a sort of grey area between the two. He's an albatross, which is a bird with a lot of legends and superstitions surrounding it. Albatrosses have mistakenly been associated with burdens and bad luck (like in "Rime of the Ancient Mariner") However, they only symbolize misfortune to people who mistreat them. They're actually symbols of perseverance and guidance, as well as healing and protecting lost souls. This means that Skizz counts as a supernatural being, but it isn't really noticeable. He's got a good sense of direction and is remarkably good at telling when someone needs guidance, but other than the giant wings, he seems normal

(Thanks to anyone who read that whole thing! I warned y'all I was a literature major, rambling about bird symbolism was inevitable)

Day 14 done! One of my friends wanted a drawing of Lizzie, so I thought this lovely couple would be perfect for the group/collab prompt. Drawing this was so nice, I mimic the expressions as I draw and I was smiling the whole time. A note on the designs: they are both some kind of fairy with insect features. Joel is based on a dogbane beetle, while Lizzie is an orchid mantis!

Another Trimax redraw! This time of my favorite panel from Ch. 83. I'm fond of that chapter because the moment Livio committed to the cowboy aesthetic was the moment he became my favorite character

(please ignore the awful signature, I really need to make a proper watermark before I post anything else)

Day 30 done! I don't really watch Doc, but wow is his skin fun to draw! The extremely impractical glasses are my favorite part of this design, they look like they're about to fall off at any moment

In case anyone isn't up to date with #FixTF2 and the issues the protest is focusing on, here is a comprehensive document you can read.

It has the personal testimony of one of the bothosters' victims who was swatted, MegaScatterBomb, a guy who is working on an anticheat to use in casual mode.

The bothosters and their lackeys have committed and condoned crimes that hurt people IRL, while scamming desperate players with "bot immunity" and spamming links that they brag about containing CP. They customize their Objectors to have gore on them. They have tried to funnel the anger of the playerbase on innocent, uninvolved parties and impersonated a number of TF2 players to divert attention away from the real bothosters. Recently they tried to take down the save.tf site by unlawfully impersonating Valve in order to file a DMCA.

They are allowed to conduct this sort of behavior with no consequences while Valve is still making money off the game.

#FixTF2 is not asking for more content, they are asking for security measures. People are getting doxxed just for critiquing bothosters. TF2 isn't the only game on Steam which suffers from lack of proper regulation, either. If people are supposed to spend money on your product, this product should work properly and you shouldn't be risking your personal information just from using it!

Please sign the petition on save.tf (they are aiming for 300k signatures) and spread word of #FixTF2. As a regular player and a big fan of the game, I think this is worth trying rather than just rolling over. Valve profits from this mess, refusing to openly communicate with the playerbase, fix their game nor simply shut it down. Let them know this is unacceptable.

To keep up with the developments and to know more, a good account to follow on twitter is the guy who called the fandom to action in the first place this year, Weezy. He has a youtube too, with informative videos on the matter. Shork is likewise updating on the situation.
