Update on the Scamp animation, add more character to him, and plan to render him out with his fur in Unreal, so stay tuned!

Just came back from watching The Chronology of Water. Holy shit, I don't think I'll ever take my comfort for granted ever again. Lidia Yuknavitch *went through some shit*. I think this might be my second favorite movie of 2025. 9/10. Watch it. Expect volatility, horror, crudeness and beauty.

Finished Dishonored: Death Of The Outsider. Well, that's that. The (as of now) end of the Dishonored franchise. Maybe I'll replay Deathloop next. I feel this strange hollowness in me. Like there's something I'll never get to feel again. I love this series. Start: 3. 10. 2026 End: 4. 10. 2026

Finished A Plague Tale: Innocence today. A wonderful little stealth puzzle game set during the 1340s about the rat plague. My favorite characters were Amicia, Melie and Rodrick. I died around twenty or so times. The final boss was bad. Melicia OTP. Start: 2026. 09. 22 End: 2026. 10. 2

Olivia Dean rules, my man. I never thought I'd enjoy it so much but lowkey, I think The Art of Loving might be one of my most favorite albums out of 2025. She absolutely deserved that Best New Artist Grammy. Hopefully she doesn't get hit by The Curse though...

I finished watching the first season of The Sopranos yesterday. First off; The entire cast did a great job portraying their characters. The world feels super real. The story feels like it's plodding at points but it all builds up to something. I hate Livia Soprano *so much.* Fav Episode: College

Just came back from the Resident Evil movie. It's nice to actually see a game franchise get used in such a way that makes a good movie. The guy playing Bryan did a really good job. I wish we got to spend more time with some of the other characters. Never trust Umbrella to not be incompetent.

Finished Fallen Aces Episode 2 today. Aside from the glaringly awful Bare Treads and the mediocre Friends In High Places, I'd say that this episode was a pretty solid improvement over the original. My favorite chapter was Hide And Seek. That one rocks. Start: 06. 09. 2026 End: 12. 09. 2026

Currently playing through Fallen Aces Episode 2. I'll give my full thoughts on it when I beat it but *holy shit* is Bare Treads awful. Visually great but bad to play. Nothing feels like it fits and all of the im-sim stuff feels like it gets discarded for linear action. Broke my non-lethal run too.

Re-beat the first episode of Fallen Aces today. I had been putting off replaying it due to personal issues but now that I'm happier, I can say that this game still fucks pretty hard. I played non-lethally, trying to do a Dishonored thing and that went okay. Start: 1. 09. 2026 End: 6. 09. 2026

A game like Tetris Effect couldn't be made nowadays. It's a game that I think is built to be as hopeful as possible. I love it. I finished a full run of it today and I took some screenshots of it. Hydelic, the guy behind the music, did a great damn job. I should make a tierlist of the levels.

Man, that thing I said about the two of them being on the same shitty abuser coin seems to really line up in retrospect now, doesn't it? And people defend Bear even though he does all of that. On the flip-side, I don't think I've ever seen people defend Jimmy though, which is good. Fuck them both.

more art tiem His / her / their name (genderfluid) is Gavin Doss. A monster hunter with a very gaudy sense of fashion, a love for future funk and a weird pink orb that's bound to them. Gavin loves to playfully mess with people and is fun to be around. #art #oc #originalcharacter #genderfluid

A drawing of a genderfluid person is on the left. Their name is "Gavin Doss". They have messy, black curly hair and a shit-eating grin on their face. Their brown eyes are half lidded and one of their eyebrows is arched upwards. They're wearing an open trench coat with their hands in their pocket. Their shirt is pitch black with a pink angry anime face on it with the text "ぶっ飛ばせ!" under it, then under that text is more text that reads "NEON SUPERBLAST RECORDS". They're also wearing ripped short jeans with pink-and-grey knee-high socks on, as well as full-on combat boots. They look quite gaudy.

Floating by their head is a pink orb being. Its name is "Saint Spills" It looks like a gumball but with bright pink hair. It has two hands, one waving whilst the other holds a slightly darker pink revolver. It's a big ass gun. It is smiling joyfully.

On their left is an "expression test". Here are their expressions:
1: Flirty, 2: Distracted, 3: Miffed, 4: Concerned
5: Curious, 6: Tired, 7: Sad, 8: Unsure
9: Fem-Presenting (long hair, swept to the side with eyelashes)
10: Masc-Presenting (short hair, slightly uneven with one raised eyebrow)
11: Joyous, 12: okay

Underneath those expressions is also an expression sheet for Saint Spills. Here they are from left to right;
1: Anger, 2: Silly, 3: Staring Directly At You, 4: Resting

Thank you for reading this far. It makes me really happy that you appreciate my work. Yes.

Time for more art. Her name is Joni P. Grammer, the P stands for "Paradise" but she prefers to go without it. The hand floating by her side is tied to her back tattoo, one of a tree. She's also 6'5" tall and can consistently bench 700kg shirted or shirtless. #art #characterart #oc #spiritual

A drawing of a very tall, very broad woman holding a sniper rifle. She is dressed in a tank-top, which shows a small tattoo of a sun on the left of her chest. Her left arm is wrapped up in a comfortable, cozy arm warmer that is tied to her tank top whilst her right arm is bare and covered in bandages, except for the dark green glove she's wearing. She's wearing a deep green robe over her tank-top, akin to a monk's. She has tied her jacket around her waist to act as a sort of belt to keep everything in place. Her pants are almost pitch black and her shoes have small green laces.

On the right side of the screen is an expression test. Here's a visual descriptor for what they portray:

Expression 1: Concern
Expression 2: Puppy Dog Eyes
Expression 3: Cross-Eyed With Tongue
Expression 4: Anger
Expression 5: Depression
Expression 6: Joy

Finished Brutal John 2 today. This game plays really damn good but the story and the VA are surreal in how flat, goofy and bad they are and I wouldn't have it any other way. Lots of love for the old guard too. The furry community would love Brutal Dog. Start: 21. 08. 2026 End. 25. 08. 2026
