What Is Kaput And Zösky’s Idea For A Romantic Date?

Thank you so much for letting me take part in this project!! It looks absolutely amazing all put together and it means so so much to me. One of my favorite songs by my favorite artist paired with my favorite show and favorite old men. <3

And here it is at last! The Gravity Falls Multi-Artist Lyric Comic tribute to the Stan Twins, "Trouble"!

Stay tuned, as @stariousfalls is working on making all of this into a video version. That will be coming along in the next few weeks!

And of course, Happy Birthday to Dipper and Mabel! (Even if this project was Grunkles-centric, Stan and Ford's stories wouldn't have come to such a heart-warming resolution if it wasn't for their niblings. Credit where it's due!)

Some credits and acknowledgements below the read-more:

(I'll have remarks and thanks in another post; but for now, thank you SO MUCH TO EVERYONE who worked on this and made it spectacular!)

Stayed up too late drawing this but I couldn’t hold my hype, REPENTANCE IS SICK !!! I’m having so much fun discovering my favorite game again, went from 90% of achievements unlocked to 50% and I’m finding new things every run. :D 

The art updates are fantastic, the new areas are seriously beautiful and I love my kiddo Azazel’s new haircut ;v; <3 <3 If you’re seeing this, Sag, you rock.

Oh my god I loved the shaker concept so much that I bought like $50 worth of art supplies and made my own janky one out of construction paper! Never done anything like this before and though it’s definitely no acrylic I still really like how it turned out haha. Sealed away forever. Hope you like it! 8D

My smiling friends merch concepts!!! Going to digitalize these later but for now here’s popsicle smiling friends charms and a shaker charm of the HQ with planned acrylic pieces inside!! :D will most likely order a small batch once Im ready!

I've been thinking a lot about Euclydian biology lately, specifically in regards to pigmentation thanks to this awesome ask I got on a side blog, and wanted to illustrate some of the ideas I had. Super quick lazy sketches but hey, maybe some of you will dig this! Nerdy stuff under the cut, will make a bit more sense if you read the aforementioned post

Euclydians have a genetic predisposition towards a "resting" color (in Bill's case, yellow). The opposite of this state (full "flexing" of chromatophore-controlling muscles) is also predispositioned, which is what's seen in the threat display. This rapidly stimulates the individual's metabolism and gets their blood really pumping in preparation for conflict, but is also somewhat costly in terms of energy, so is typically only flashed rather than maintained as Bill does it

"Teeth-peeking" is the cute zoology term I came up with for when a Euclydian displays a couple teeth overtop their eye without fully switching into mouth-function, usually as a threat but sometimes a sort of stim when they're hungry

Communicative flashing ("Chromatic") has a few languages. The most primitive is Simplified Emotive which is a quick display of mood, while the most modern is Traditional Chromatic, wherein patterns of color serve as words. Words in Traditional Chromatic are not ciphers like they are in TBoB and there aren't always direct translations into English

There are a couple accepted ways for a naturally colorful Euclydian to signal an emotion or "syllable" that matches their color, typically either by a subtler change in value along the edges or by changing everything BUT the edges

It's probably worth noting that Chromatic of any variant is considered a secondary, uncommon language in modern Euclydian society. It's simply more efficient and easier for most to speak, though I think Simplified Emotive probably stems from the natural threat display and so it's more intuitive. It's not unheard of for someone's edges to flash "angry/surprised" (◼) for a second if you bump into them on the sidewalk

A memetic blush is a learned behaviour in which individuals appear to fluster by a reddish shift in color along the face, edges and vertices. This might just be something Bill (or hypothetically other Euclydians who come into contact with humans) does I'm not sure yet but it's cute so

Given the body needs to conserve more energy when fighting illness, it's not uncommon for chromatophore muscles to weaken or spasm in order to lessen metabolic strain, giving the individual a patchy look that often reveals the naturally white skin below the chromatophore layer

When rigor mortis occurs in a dead Euclydian, all the minute muscles in control of chromatophore dilation contract all at once, rendering the entire body white. Because of this, white is considered a bit of a grim color in Euclydian culture; you know emos are wearing all-white instead of all-black

Conversely, a perfect, non-tinted grey is a regal shade because it's seen as a sign of fitness and strength. Maintaining a neutral grey requires very precise control over one's chromatophores to get the balance right and hold it there

Euclydians are capable of training the muscles that control their chromatophores like any other, and as a result can change their resting color with enough discipline! They can also use this technique to give themselves markings. Haven't decided the cultural implications of this entirely, but I think the idea of someone training themselves to match their threat display so nobody can tell when they're angry, for example, is a cool idea. Possibilities!

screams and cries and runs around in circles MY NEW BOY!!!!!!! ;__; I’ve never felt so connected to a design someone else made before, this dude’s gonna be a second sona of mine and I hope you like him half as much as I do!! :D

For one brief beautiful second I thought this was a shaggy old worm-on-a-string gazing at me with wizened gold eyes

the humble apostrophe

Sketch dump: Smiling Friends edition! My brother found it very strange that Alan and Glep are my favorite characters, and I’ve got no clue why either. They’re both deranged warped little creatures and I like that. I think they’re homies

Apprehensive towards posting sketches because they’re so unpolished but then I think about how I love it when artists I follow post sketches and that made me feel better. Let me know if you’re into these! A couple more for other fandoms coming in a sec (Gravity Falls and Kaput and Zösky though the former might take me a bit cause holy wowza do I have a ton)

First draft of this was done at like 3 AM and looked like total crap. Thankfully it’s now a reasonable hour and it looks slightly less like crap! Though I did some more experimenting so it’s not totally crapless, but that’s okay, ‘tis just a silly. Enjoy!

Found this in my Procreate files! Funky experimental almost automatic piece I drew last year while hanging out with my buds in California. I had just bought a frikin adorable pair of cat squeaky toys and loved them so much that one became my muse for the evening :]

Owed art for Cinnymaa on Toyhou.se! 

Been a while since I drew in this style, my wonky tablet driver definitely did me dirty this round but I like how they turned out regardless!
