I want to drawn and make art. (I am good at it) But I way more enjoy making music (despite arguably being not so great at it) so I always end up back in FL Studio noodling around. I have like 13 tracks in various stages of completeness. My next step is to buckle down and write lyrics or force my friend to do it lol.
Iāve been in an artistic slump for years and Iām tired of it. I only ever make sketches in my sketchbooks and never develop them or share them and Iād like to change that. I watched a Procreate tutorial today and tried my hardest to find time to get some sketches out this past week and Iām posting some of them here. I want out of this exact comfort zone.
I've dropped out of two art schools haha and since then for various reasons I haven't been able to dedicate time to art until recently. I wanted to post something even though none of it's finished work just cause I thought that might be good for my brain.
Hi all, I wanted to give an update on this, my little Game Boy Color Walking Simulator āSR:Rā can now be played (more or less smoothly) from beginning to end!!
We're still working on implementing original music and zhuzhing it up a bit but I'm proud to share a Real Video Game with a Real Ending!! (FYI: Plays great on phone browsers and the play time = 20-ish minutes)
(blush) I make a webcomic called Merry Hell, itās a sort of silly, horny thing with an undercurrent of impenetrable lore but mostly itās jokes about arses and that. You can read it here, but if you have any criticisms please keep them to yourself as it is a post-criticism piece of work (this is a joke): www.merryhellcomic.com
Here is a sample strip for you to roll your eyes at
@āconnrrrā#p154748 Great stuff! Definitely keep going and don't stop! Your sense of form in space is solid, which is such a huge part of the battle.
No Holds Barred is an extremely guilty nostalgic pleasure for me. It hit during the peak of my wrestling obsession as a kid, and when the NES was huge (The Wizard hit theaters the same year). I always felt there should've been a NES/Gameboy tie in product. :P
Inspired by videos of people using Elektroplankton on the DS to make music, I decided to try my hand at doing the same. This isn't a finished song at all, just a lil sketch of one.
[Here's another version. ](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EJAXOS4gms0)My DS screen has some dead zones so using it live is quite difficult without it sounding out of tune. Any small tweak to the branches can give you very different BPMs and tones, so once I found something I like I just left it looping until I found the beat. Challenging but fun!
this is old but i've been thinking about it lately.

when i still lived in Florida i would pretty regularly eat shrooms and go on the evening departure of the Victory Casino Cruise. one time some old Quebecois guy (Ra) started talking to me on the deck but i was totally lost in the view of the coast at sunset. i figured if i was going to recreate a natural thing i should probably make it entirely synthetic. it's ovular because it was intended to be projected onto a concave plaster surface to subvert the act of staring at rectangles.
I helped make a zine! You can check it out here and read my essay about Ultraman: Fighting Evolution for the PS1 in it, along with many other wonderful things
