This comment caused me to dive into grunt outfits. I do feel there's a vague Grunt Look across the years.

Well..... accurate. That is where I'm from but my accent has been flattened and influenced by other places. 47% feels right. Bonus funnys that I live in Boston now

I got _very_ confused until I realized they probably are referring to donkeys

There's a blank spot on my home screen and I'm pretty sure I've managed to remove an app on accident, but for the life of me I don't know what's disappeared. Guess it wasn't that important

For 2026, I went to another one of my players in the Power Rangers game, and @garmore.neocities.org recently finished this version of Zingmaster! I love how this has a conversation with the previous pieces while contributing the monster crowd as a fun new element not seen before.

Zingmaster stands in a spotlight beginning or ending a bow. All around him in shadow are monstrous figures with horns, fangs, wings, fins, and other various silhouettes.

Instead of a commission, I did an art swap with @jakemason.bsky.social and got this very cool pixel design, based on Jake's fake racing video game. The circus themes blended together nicely, and I love adding the rodeo outfit to the mix!

8-bit art. One side is purple and says ZINGMASTER and the other side is yellow and reads 3-RING CIRCUIT. In each color block is the same character in different outfits. the purple side is the Benny villainsona outfit, labeled CIRCUS, and on the yellow side, labeled RODEO, is a new outfit with a white pauldron, brown gloves and boots, green pants, and a dark green coat. Rodeo Zingmaster wears goggles.

The next commission is an evolution. @cwoodsart.bsky.social and I are playing in a Power Rangers RPG, and I got her to make a redesign of the outfit for Zingmaster, the very annoying announcer of the Wicked Circus.

Zingmaster is standing on some dome structure. A lake is behind him with some trees, buildings, and a lighthouse. he carries a red and white striped popcorn bucket. He has a green top hat, white and gold mask, and a slightly different black-green-white-gold outfit from the Benny villainsona.

Then I worked with @shannonmanorart.bsky.social the next year who did this gorgeous version. I still can't get over the facial expression.

Benny in the ringmaster villain suit. BY THE NUMBERS is on a sign above him with numbers on the ground in the back. one eyebrow is raised and he is smirking while starting or ending a bow

Benny Anders @bennactive.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

I've decided to pin a thread of my villiansona commissions, so I can talk about all the cool artists and show off the artwork in one place. History: I wanted a persona reminiscent of a Power Rangers villain, so I worked with @elliotbklange.bsky.social who created this great design! +bonus image!

The word coming out of your mouth is "friendship" but then you have a visual like this....

A picture of a tv playing The Frog Prince. On the screen is the eponymous royal amphibian, a tall skinny man in a freaky yet charming frog mask, standing in leaves arranged in a heart shape. In the foreground, a 12 year old princess sits at her balcony.

My beard is out of control! I don't know if I can handle letting it get longer. It's gotten so bad I might have to purchase a THIRD comb so I can keep that one in my backpack.

Doing my relisten and thought I'd share some fan edits I made while listening to the Livestream.

Jake made me my own 3-Ring Circuit character for Zingmaster/villainsona! @jakemason.bsky.social

I wore this at a work conference last week. Clearly I'm not worried what people think about my outfits and their relationship to gender or identity 😋

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are coming to rescue you. Who is coming to save you? Yes. 100% yes.

So, in honor of the creuben from @binarybreak.bsky.social, I decided to make some fan food tonight.

Yes! Some of the Pokemon look very different and I think I tend to like these over modern takes

I gave her a cute new hat in celebration of remembering to include hair.

A perfectly normal lady (now with hair) is posting a card in the mailbox. Please don't mind her limb proportions. It's fine. Everything is fine. Come to Outdiana, you'll see. Wish you were here.

Also, look at this infinity scarf I made!

Fan art. I realize the pointy bits on the head might be an explosion but I like the pointy design.

I watched Penguin Highway several days ago but forgot to grab an image until this morning. A coming of age magical realism story. There's some uncomfortable "boy starting to have attraction to women" moment but overall an interesting movie

Did you know there was a pilot for an Aquaman tv show back in 2006?! I'm not sure what to think about it. I'd probably have watched the first season?

Mysterious Island. There are some pretty people in this and gosh do I wish movies still relied on practical effects. They look a little cheese and you can spot the green screen but it ages better than CGI.

Three Wishes for Cinderella was good! A clean retelling of the fairy tale with some slight differences and good modern sensibilities.

I could say that I didn't draw the rest of the arm because figures are hard but the standard narrative is I wanted wider representation of different centaurs in art
