Thanks so much Michelle! Done a few more recently that I'll post. I keep neglecting my BlueSky 🤣

Here's some of the scribbles I've done recently - including a self portrait. Also, I've drawn an actual original piece for Valentines that I am excited to share!! #Sketching #DigitalSketch #KinkPositive #FetishFashion #Latex #ShibariArt #AlternativeArt #SupportArtists #SpicyArt #EdgyArt

So instead, just being chill - which ironically has led to me drawing more, and writing a few lyrics here and there. Go figure.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 07/02/2025

Recently, tapped into a bit of creativity. I've been trying to do something for a specific purpose, but slowly realised that as much as I want to release on a schedule, that ain't happening

Oh hi blue sky! Keep meaning to post more. Whoops.

It's a shame what that place has become. Just bile now.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 11/01/2025

Everything is pretty cool APART from the gameplay itself. It was a critical flop, sure and it's led to many people being let go from the developer - but seeing it for myself, man - this thing must of hemorrhaged money.

Playing 'Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League' it's fascinating. The game looks and runs great, the characters and story are interesting, it's genuinely funny in places, there's been a couple of cool set pieces.

Psst. Dj/Mash up friends. I bet "APT." By ROSÉ and Bruno Mars mixes well with "Come out and play" by The Offspring.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 04/01/2025

A new drawing inspired by the iconic Brent Man! Really embracing the cartoon-mixed-with-shiny aesthetic. So - now that I've found my style - should I continue? Who should I draw if so? I still plan to pivot to other creative stuff, but this clicking feels pretty cool.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 02/01/2025

Deserved. Just an absolute joy of a game.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

Amen to that. This month is always the big recovery from the month before 🤣

I've got a grand idea for a rock and metal music project that I've been sat on for over a year - I need to pull my finger out and do it this year! In my defense, I'm lazy.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

I hope nothing happens with the law for you this year, or this is a daily mail article waiting to happen

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

Happy New Year all! I'm gonna make my new years #resolutions as follows: * Continue to embrace being an authentic version of myself * Try to be the best husband and father I can * Tackle my music project that I've been talking about for ages * Post more and make friends :) What about you?

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

Happy new year! May new games distract us from our collections becoming increasingly retro 😅

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

I'm sorry, but is this the best drawing I've ever done, or what?! Inspired by @addrooby.bsky.social - , I hope she doesn't mind (happy to tag or delete the post if she'd like). I said I'm not going to draw much anymore, but this style clicked with me. Anything I do draw will be like this going fwd

011

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 26/12/2024

I was surprised that it wasn't a return to the old style, but an evolution. More single note riffs than doomy chords. I'm digging it!

From the outside our Santa just seems anxious about Christmas, and honestly St. Nick, same. #ohohoh

I fully intend to use BlueSky more, but... I'm also busy and not in my twenties anymore 😅

Happy to discovered someone ordered a big bottle of coke from a takeaway place while watching the game awards after the works xmas party last night. Thanks drunk me Love Hungover me

I lost the passion for it after trying to get another line up, and during covid and some other stuff, lost interest in music. The Polyester Overdose will be part of my new project - and it will be in a very different context.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 08/12/2024

#storytime My last band had split up due to internal tensions. After a few things, I decided to make a new thing. I'm not a terrifying front man, so wanted something lighter. I created 'The Polyester Overdose' - combining metal tech with post hard-core punk. This artwork is by Dean Eberhard. 1/2

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 08/12/2024

I never did! I'll have to check it out, I thought Peacewalker was some card game thing for some reason. The sons and fathers thing, I can totally see. Big boss, solid snake, les enfants terribles etc. This is the video essay I mentioned. That Kojima, always meta! youtu.be/yr4RvdREwl8?...

That's it, it can do so many different things. If you aren't looking for gigs and just recording, I'd definitely suggest looking at some plugins. I use a small company called Audio Assault, which have some ludicrously cheap guitar VSTs and they sound awesome. Plus Neural DSP have demos and that

010

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

Here's a solo to one of the songs I've written. Trying to cover a few different styles with this passion project of mine :) The draw back is always the singing. Having to do that myself suuuuuucks.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

It kinda does happen still. There's just something about the tone that suffers past a certain volume. It's clearly artificial, and when playing in bands where valve amps were on stage it just got smothered. Depends on the rest of the gear tbh

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

I'm trying to get back into my music. This is one of my first goes at an #orchestral arrangement. Since, it's been accompanied by guitars and blast beats 🤣 #composer #composing #music #orchestra #metal

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

I've had it for years, that old spider. Tbh at low volumes, and for recording, I love the tones you can get from it. Loud stages though - it loses a lot of clarity and definition. Thats older digital amps though. The newer stuff, like the Helix, Temperature & Fractals though... pretty good!

The 'AI generated content' is I removed a pull cord lol

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

It's such a shame, as it feels half finished narratively, but the gameplay was great! There's a killer YouTube video covering a theory that PT - the Silent Hills demo - was released without permission and was a shot at Konami as Kojima was out the door, if you feel like going down a YouTube hole

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

You're so welcome. Thank you for the inspiration! When we saw you open for PMJ it was one of the best gigs we'd ever seen.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

When you think you are still punk, but really, only look edgy approx. 1% of the time.

Thankful that there are 11 letters in 'Sausage Roll' rather than 7. Don't think I could handle the ladbaby cover of 'Hot To Go'.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

Watched #TheSubstance last night. Man, it's an uncomfortable watch - in the best way. It's symbolism is very blunt and obvious - but that adds to the anxiety. You know before the characters do what is inevitable, and you cant help but watch it unfold. Very dark feminist satirical body horror. 5/5

010

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

Been followed by a few bands. I'll check your music out at some stage and share :)

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

So, that's some content. Now, I'm gonna post whatever. My music creation process, thoughts on media - whatever! Is my take important? Nah. But the idea of social media being the cool place where people *conversed* is appealing, and gosh, I wanna be involved.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

OK, last art dump! This has been a nice trip down memory lane. Pictures are: 1) A vintage cartoon inspired pic inspired by #danidivine 2) An attempt at a cartoon of #friskyandmannish 3) #kratos from #GodofWar, but like, this. 4) Finally, a portrait of my muse. She also got drawn all wonky like.

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 30/11/2024

I've even started recording music again

Craigles @2leggedriffmachine.bsky.social · 30/11/2024

Kinda dumb, but since posting on bksy, not worrying about separating posts into a drawing account or music account - I've realised all these parts of me are part of the whole. It's freeing - it was a limitation I put on myself. I'm now taking steps to be authentically me. #overthinking but #happy
