Some Recent Rough Paintings I Forgot To Post! I Like Being Experimental In These So They All Typically

Secret Santa gift for my buddy Gingler on Toyhouse! I'm pretty happy with it even though I impulsively did line art again >:P I looked at so many thalassophobia images I love their vibes so much. Hope you all had a nice holiday!

Figure this is finished enough to go here! I'm rather fond of it tbh :]

him having nightmares about his parents?

Found this sketch and liked it so I painted it up for you anon! There's a reason he doesn't like to sleep.

Wooooo another character ref! Two in one day, actually; what is going on???

This is Binx and she's a professional racer! Those funky little wheels on her feet kinda work like roller skates. Her racing name is The Tootsie-Roller :D

She was designed pretty much entirely by my buddy Devilbinx! fr usually I change a couple things up when I redraw refs but she is already just perfect, didn't have to do much of anything

Made another at the same time as the Smiling Friends one! I’d also like to make a Gravity Falls one and a Binding of Isaac one but they’re quite a bit of work so I’m gonna get all the stuff I’ve gotta do out of the way first. :D

This one’s double-sided! The back is identical but without the window for ✨ maximum immersion ✨ 

*smile ding noise*

MAN that was a workout but I wanted to draw every character at least once if not just for future reference! I've got like 3,000 hours on this game over the course of eight years and I think I may be playing it for the rest of my life

Think I might make a portrait mod 🤔

Shoutout to my friends for helping me through my eye style crisis

It's maybe dump buuut any changes on Venuses approach towards Bill after a night-whimper story time?

(Context just in case, I'm a month late lololol)

Not at all, anon! I really like this question actually, and the reason it took me so long to answer is cause I really had to think about it, but I think I've got a good one for ya now.

Some complementary snuggles for ya, possibly a continuation of the last piece? Up to you! Answer's under the cut since it ended up being pretty long.

So, Bill is a pretty inherently childish character. He just wants to break rules and do whatever the hell he wants with no regard for anyone else because he can. Venuz lives with a pretty normal kid (Yung Cuz), and I like to imagine that he raised him himself, so Venuz knows how kids act. I think that Bill dropping his mask and revealing that, essentially, when things went to shit he stuck his fingers in his ears and went "la-la-la" instead of dealing with it like an adult showcased that immaturity of his, and Venuz recognized it.

Now, Venuz's feelings in regards to this depend on your headcanons of his character. Personally I bounce around two different ones: the Nuclear Throne interpretation and the Gun Godz interpretation.*

In NT he's just what we would think of when we think of a god; he's immortal, he's all-powerful, he's always been around and has always been a god. In this case, he can afford to be a careless and trusting guy because he can solve any problem with a thought. This Venuz immediately takes what Bill says at face value and lemme tell ya if he wasn't in love with the guy before this tragic side of him sure did it. Venuz likes when his gold chains are squeaky-clean, not his lovers; I think he adores that Bill's a terrifying disaster. (Not that he doesn't want to help of course; I'm sure the morning after was breakfast in bed and excessive cuddles and kisses)

In GG, Venuz is still a god, but he wasn't always. (I think I unconsciously took a lot of this from this awesome fic so credit where it's due lol) The planet runs on a system where Gun God is a title taken by force, i.e., to become the Gun God you need to kill the Gun God. He has been through the grinder and though he's mellowed out quite a bit after becoming Gun God he has issues really and truly trusting people. This Venuz is more cautious and keeps Bill's history of being a master manipulator in mind, knowing that there is no reason at all that Bill couldn't be putting on an act. That being said, Bill is pretty much harmless as long as Venuz doesn't consciously decide to return his powers to him, so he still tries to comfort him just in case.

Both are pretty great I think, one is lower-stakes and fun while the other has room for more angst and character growth. There is a hole in the GG logic though which is that if Bill got his hands on a gun he could just kill Venuz and become the Gun God, so uh...oops? Idk, this ship is still mostly crack and good fun tbh.

*TL;DR: NT Venuz sees this pathetic man and goes "shit. i love him even more now"; GG Venuz sees this pathetic man and goes "ok but if he's actually telling the truth then he needs me so"

Thanks for the ask!

One of two pieces I did for Art Fight this year xDc Better than nothing, and I had fun! Focused on going with the flow and exploring.

This is my dear friend @mintytrashcannot's character Albert (and his alien dog Spluty)! I felt he seemed like a rather traditionalist guy who would stand by his country's greyscale palette even after color was legalized, so this is kinda meant to highlight that contrast between his natural color and his conservative values

(Hope that makes some kinda sense...the lore is a bit complex)

It’s literally the perfect quote thank you
