Just A Good Thread

Leucy here doesn't have a lot of ways of manifesting his powers in more combative ways- but the grenade launcher he swiped from a police armory has been helping with that

Most drowning-based incidents are typically toss-ups between the Vast and the Buried- but this is absolutely the Buried. The Vast functions by making it's victims feel microscopic in the wake of something great and uncaring The people who made Oceangate happen had their egos inflated enough to think they could best the ocean with a game controller. The Vast ain't touchin' that.

this is such a random post but i just remembered that i first got into TMA because i kept seeing posts on tiktok of people arguing over which entity caused the Oceangate Billionaires Incident

Leucy's grenade launcher- Eyestrain. A weapon with a few nicks in it from its previous wielders at CAIN, but Leucy has quickly made it his own.

Eh, I’ve had this guy lying around in my sketchbook for a while with no plans for what to do with ‘em- plus I didn’t see anyone else submit an Iterator yet, so why not!

This is Acts of Kindness, or AOK (pun intended). An iterator on their last legs who, by all means, should be dead or catatonic by now- were it not for a small tribe of scavengers who either grew fond of them and/or like to use them as a movie projector- depending on how you look at it. They filled the chamber with pearls for Acts to read and their Overseers to project visuals- an activity that the scavengers quite enjoy. Besides pearls, they do give Acts gifts from time to time- most notably their patched together clothes and some neuron flies (to this day Acts is not sure where they got the them and is mildly concerned) but Acts is just grateful for the odd situation they’ve found themselves in, naming themself after that which keeps them here, and speaks kindly to their new friends (even though few to none of them actually understand what they’re saying)

Their overseers are notably very protective of Acts, and that extends to those who treat them well. They were the ones who more or less negotiated the scavengers into bringing Acts clothes/neurons, and they occasionally go out alongside a scavenger to guide them to some pearls, items for Acts, or just to keep an eye out for ‘em.

I am not sure what their gender is. I’ll figure it out eventually- probably. And maybe draw them digitally with color n’ all- apologies I’m moving around a lot today and don’t know when I’ll have time to sit down and draw- so just a sketchbook pic for now!

hey, you. you're finally awake! you seem new to this region, how long have you been here?

you don't know?

well that's alright, you can travel with us! we bid you a warm welcome to the

Alrighty I'll stop the bit now. Hi hi, I'm Mosaic!

This is a masterpost for a group oc project where anyone can make and add a slugcat to become a part of this collab colony!

The idea is that you can reblog this post or send a submission to me with your slugcat design for this colony and we as a community can slowly build lore together!

Some basic info about this colonies region:

Over many cycles this land has used the rain to outgrow it's previous structures and has turned into something akin to a jungle, mangrove forest or swamp.

deep beneath the abundance of wildlife however, you can enocunter the remains of the ancients cities long before the iterators, and the structures they built afterwards. who knows if anything down there still works, but it could be worth a shot.

iterators are as per usual scattered around! i have no plans for any named ones currently but if you don't want to submit a slugcat, you may submit an iterator instead!

this is a spreadsheet I'm going to be updating with info on every slugcat submitted, so you know who created what

Truth be told, you don't even have to follow any of the basic lore i just gave you there! this is a group project you're free to add as you please so long as it doesn't dimish others work.

you could make your slugcat anything at all and they'll be welcome into the collab colony same as all the rest, so be creative with it! have some fun!

Some basic rules:

Please be kind and respectful of others, as is expected of you in any collaborative space.

Always ask permission! whether it's asking permission for your slugcats to interact or permission to use art someone else has made for the colony. please always ask permission unless you already know the person closely enough to know they'd be okay with it!

BE SFW. this is no surprise but i feel it must be stated anyways. if you act inappropriately you will be blocked.

as long as you follow these three easy rules you're free to participate as much as you want.

that's all for now, later i think I'll edit this post with a form in which people can submit their slugcat info so you can add it to the spreadsheet easier, but it won't be required. this is open no being selective here as long as you're all chill

(and last but not least two of my mutuals who wanted to be tagged @nickeeree @quinnboop they are both cool go follow them)

get him a ouppy!!!!!

Speedran a dragon

Listening to Hymns for The Road with some friends and heard Aster and instantly started drawing them

Did I seriously forget to post this here? Ah well, here ya go.

I made this like. Weeks ago for a club zine that isn't even available anymore

Eh well. I've been wanting to show off more of Cordy and Coyote's relationship anyhow. Their dynamic is one of my favorites in the story-

Plus, horse.

Look, I understand the ever-present fear that you're not good enough or that you haven't done enough with your time, but can we PLEASE not feel discouraged when seeing amazing work made by young people? Can we please stop seeing art in general and thinking "I'll never make something that good"? Beyond even art, whatever it is- looking at something and saying "I'll never be that good"? I decided I wanted to do art because because I was inspired by media I love- and I want to make things that do that for others- that drives them to pick up a pencil and start sketching OCs or writing a story that brings them joy and makes them feel proud of themselves. If someone genuinely felt bad seeing my work because "I'll never make something as good as that," I'd be DEVASTATED. That is the OPPOSITE OF WHAT I WANT. Please! Go, Make Something! Join in this thing I love! I want you to love it too! I want you to make things you love! Make characters you love! Make stories you love! Join in the joy of creation! Because it's fun! It's wonderful! It's expressive! And what you make, no one else will! It is yours! Love yourself! Love your work! Make things you love! Tell the stories you want to hear! Because if it's something you want, others will want it too.
