iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Redrawing Pokemon fanart that's older than I was when I made it (2013 → 2026).

A digital drawing of a shiny Mew leaning over a paper on a desk and looking over its shoulder. The paper has a scribble resembling another Mew. This version of the drawing is made in MS Paint with default colors and has visible JPEG artifacting. The lines, made with the paintbrush tool, are a little shaky (aside from parts that were clearly made with the line tool) and filled in incompletely with the bucket.

A digital drawing of a shiny Mew leaning over a paper on a desk and looking over its shoulder, holding a pencil over an incomplete sketch of another Mew. In addition to expected technical improvements, this version of the image has more dynamic and clear posing, and is drawn with additional texture and shading to make it look almost worn-out.

I use a site where you can see the record number of users/guests online and when. Guest record had been 2k since 2011! Now, suddenly, there are 20k guests online daily, but still just 100 users. These data scrapers make it lag unusably until the mods disable another site feature. Thanks, AI!

Y'know, I have a comic on Tapas that's been on hiatus for 11 years. Maybe I should resume it. Now is a great time, I think. Surely no major information has leaked about the longevity of that platform within the past 24 hours.

I hate the gas station. Forced to stop what you're doing and pay money to stand outside holding a dirty hose listening to ads for two minutes. And it costs twice as much as last year because someone with more money than God is gonna be sad if he can't kill people for sport.

Another 2018 vs. 2026 isolated panel redraw. Can't wait to get to the part of the comic that would've originally been this "pilot". Plot's entirely different and that comparison'll hopefully blow this one out of the water. :V

Comic panel of Amy (girl), Morris (robot), and Zach (boy) speaking outside in a car lot, with pennants strung up in the background as a black silhouette over an airbrushed gray sunset, shaded dramatically. Unlike current designs, Amy looks slimmer than intended and wears a smiley graphic tee; Morris has more details and symmetrical "hair"; and Zach has straighter anime hair.
AMY (arms crossed, concerned): He keeps staring at you.
MORRIS (arms crossed, frowning): Most people do.
ZACH (wringing hands, looking up): This i-is different though. He's shady.
MORRIS: All *car* salesmen are.

Redrawn comic panel. The background has darker clouds with marginally more emphasized pinks, and different shades of navy blue are used to make it clear which background elements are closer to the foreground. The character poses are a little more exaggerated and distinct from each other, and while there's no shading, the colors are more vibrant and atmospheric.
AMY (gesturing, confused): Why's he keep starin' at you?
MORRIS (arms crossed, tense): I don't know, a lot of people do that.
ZACH (awkwardly looking away): It *is* kind of creepy...
MORRIS: *Really?* Haven't noticed.

Obligatory Comic Update Post, but also: Ask Event in celebration of 100 subs!! yay \o/ canofworms.cfw.me/blogarchive/...

Fake computer window in the style of the "100,000th visitor" scam pop-up. Amy has a cake and is cheering. Morris looks confused about the food and has a smiley balloon, which startles Zach, who clings to a present. The text instead says, "Thank you !: for 100 Subscribers!"

it’s fine to be skeptical of these things. i was a skeptic myself until recently. but i think fear is at the root of this skepticism, a fear of its power. people are simply not ready for what’s coming. it is powerful, it is alive, and it is quite possibly god

There is another idea DVD logo'ing around my head right now, because I magically dreamed up a short sequence of comic panels (I basically never dream OC stuff period), but... I dunno, I guess I've been meaning to redesign those characters. They've always been rough.

Amy (in silhouette with a sunset pattern) looms with her hands folded under her chin. Morris stands in the foreground and smaller to the right, with a bag over their head. The typography and grid pattern are reminiscent of synthwave aesthetics. The title is, "Eighth Grade Syndrome".

Coping with stress by drawing Normal Robot Rivalry.

Sketches of two cartoon robots in lab coats (one tall/red, one short/blue) arguing as drawn over some tweets.

Klapaucius: Architecture > music > written word. get a grip
Trurl: Architecture = music, actually. They compliment each other exactly.
Klapaucius, leaning down: Work on your whole-view-of-earth
Trurl, turning around to point: I understand Space and Time more than you.

Sketch of Klapaucius waving a handkerchief with a single tear on his face, as though dramatically but gracefully mourning. He recites a Reddit post titled, "My nemesis died and I miss them."

It says,
Who will schedule emails for dinner time on Easter Sunday to tell me I'm an unethical mercenary of a lawyer and a disgrace to the profession? Who will call me a dick just loud of enough for the jury to hear but not the judge? Who will I engage with in an increasingly personal series of attacks in filings until the judge orders us both to take six hours of CLE on professionalism?
That recurring six-month reminder to make an anonymous complaint to the bar about his alcoholism and dementia will need to be deleted.
No more will I be able to reply to his incoherent 2 am emails with his DWI mugshot and a plea for him to get professional counseling.
I had invested so much energy into our relationship, and now he's just gone. Worst of all, the bastard died without me getting that overwhelming victory that finally broke his spirit I'd fantasized about for years.
Goodbye, you gin-soaked, semi-literate munchkin. Only now do I realize how much you meant to me.

Behind him in the background is Trurl, angry and covered in dirt as though having dug himself out of a grave.

Yeah, multiple of the "6/5" are too floral/long, according to suggestions I've seen. They focus on all the wrong stuff, which can impede accessibility and understanding. Any alt text is better than none, but purple prose is NOT a good standard!

"If you can't remember them, clearly they weren't important to you! Maybe you should really, really just let that go." and yet the pilot attempts to remember their name in vain, pushing a boulder that they wish existed

Art of someone, rendered entirely in black with white highlights and outlines, in a skintight jumpsuit with striped patterns on it, wearing a star-patterned short jacket with rolled up sleeves and matching high-tops, drifting weightlessly in a black void.

Their head is entirely obscured in a liquid-flame-like substance, entirely in white with a purple outline, with black embers floating off of it. A massive crack in the glass of reality lays just behind their head.

Must not be someone important if you can't remember them. So why do you keep trying to recall their name?

A tiny part of me finds it hilarious I'm able to undermine an entire enterprise just by hiding a YouTube URL on my comic site. But that's kinda overshadowed by how dizzyingly nauseating it feels to be shown how deep the rot's gone. Even my lil passion project, polluted by the locusts of AI sludge.

"WHY DO YOU DESERVE TO HAVE WHAT I CANNOT, PLATINUM STAR?" The Lost Priest, captor of the galaxy and hated enemy of the pilot! Even though they've only met once... right? It lays in the starless void beyond the galaxy's arms, where it can see its prize in full view... (Starship for scale!)

Reference for the Lost Priest, a previously mentioned character from the 6-panel comic in the quoted post below: a heavily damaged robot cloaked in wrapped cords, wires, and dark cloth harvested from the flags of space federations. It has 2 arms, both on its right side, each almost entirely bare of parts with 2 elbows each, and its head is almost entirely obscured by a dark hood save for a single peering white eye. Pictured alongside it is the pilot from inside their ship, glaring at the priest with barely contained rage.

Next to one of the depictions of the Priest is the pilot's starship, measuring to roughly about the size of one of the Priest's hands, showcasing how immense the foe is.

But whatever. Go, screenshot I saw that circles my mind like a mosquito.

A screenshot of someone asking ChatGPT to write "a love poem [...] in the language of pure mathematics". It fails to identify the reference and outputs a generic bit of verse. To the side is a comparison to the story "Trurl's Electronic Bard", in which the exact same request is made of a fictional machine. This poem is much longer and demonstrates a more thorough understanding of the subject.

The technology has gotten good enough to be grammatically correct, sure, but from experience, it makes mistakes just the same. And its prevalence has actually made it harder for me to research older music... It's just one of those tasks that will always require human nuance to be done well.

Doodled Beta Piplup... I love you, Beta Piplup...

Simple drawing of a Pokemon that resembles Piplup, but with fewer markings. In addition, it has a little cartoon crown and a thick layer of down like a fluffy coat, and has been drawn seated on a background with faint snowflakes and a shadow. The shading/coloring is meant to resemble early Pokemon art by Ken Sugimori.

Some doodles of the Most Brilliant Constructors™ from the past few months.

Sketch of Trurl tearfully quoting (his book of origin), "Please don't try to lighten the mood, because my soul hurts with a realization as true as it is depressing. I have come to the conclusion that in the entirety of our busy lives, we've never done anything valuable!" The next panel reveals Klapaucius standing in front of a cartoonish wall of trophies, ribbons, and certificates, asking, "What makes you say that?"

Sketch of Trurl first tearfully giving a long-winded speech from the book, translated extremely literally in a way that makes it even more pretentious and verbose. As he says, "accomplishing ontological prestidigitation", the word "prestidigitation" is replaced by a screenshot of the cantrip as seen in some TTRPG reference material. He then turns around and looks suspiciously at the previous panel, asking "what the hell is that"

Sketch of Klapaucius looking impatiently at Trurl alongside two designs copied from book covers, asking, "Are there any other Trurls I should know about?" A very geometric and alien-looking design from an animation then appears with the caption "[Minecraft cave noise]" and jumpscares him.

Comic sketched over YouTube screenshots. Trurl shouts, "THIS IS SUCH A STUPID VIDEO I JUST WASTED 3 MINUTES OF MY LFIE!!!!!!!!!1 FUCK U!!!" Klapaucius does a "get a load of this guy pose" and comments, "haha wow look at this fucking asshole here. why didnt you click away from the video like a normal [person]". The next panel shows them much calmer, saying they love each other. It is separated from the previous panel using a collapsed "View all 231 replies" section.

My favorite of the bunch gets their own post though.

A character drawn using the prompt "RUSTIC" and the sandwich, bunny head, and carousel horse emojis. They're a centaur with the upper half of an anthro bunny, carrying a basket of bread. The art style somewhat resembles Sylvanian Families/Calico Critters.

"Random word and emojis" character design challenge. Glad I got a lot of animals because I don't draw anthros/furries enough, in both the "I need practice" and "It's fun sometimes" sense of the phrase.

A character drawn using the prompt "LEGAL" and the strawberry, raincloud with sun, and joker card emojis. They're a "court jester", a clown lawyer, with puffy clothes.

A character drawn using the prompt "FLASHY" and the bomb, bone, and eagle head emojis. They're a juvenile anthro eagle with a cliche cartoon bully skull shirt, playing with matches/firecrackers.

A character drawn using the prompt "FREEZE" and the water drops, bat, and pie emojis. They're an anthro fruit bat in an apron, holding whipped cream and pie, and very nervous/sweaty.

A character drawn using the prompt "SUPER" and the pear, DNA, and llama emojis. They're an anthro llama scientist with leaves growing from their limbs and a second mouth on their torso (vaguely alluding to the llamas and Biting Pear of Salamanca meme from DeviantART).

A drawing of a shiny Jirachi in a bow tie with its arm stretched towards the viewer, positioned on a very chaotic dark background of neon shapes. A glyph behind it resembles the Gravity Falls zodiac wheel overlaid with the symbol of Arceus, but the spaces instead say "MAKE A WISH" in Unown runes. Jirachi is posed limply and only the eye on its torso is visible, resembling Bill Cipher.
