Kind of amazing... especially the pants. Why do the pants specifically look so good? Do the tattoos mean anything in particular? More importantly, why are you depressed about painting? You make uniquely intriguing stuff.

school has me burnt out, it feels like everyone is so much better at everything than me.I just have the rest of this semester though then I'm finally done with my bfa. I'm defiantly going to take a year off before I go for my masters.
The tattoos are all queer signifiers :)

Maaaaaan, I just bought this. You better not be spoiling something with this excellent piece of fan art pertaining to a character I am currently unaware of outside of what I've seen in promotional stuff. If you are, I will wag my finger at you in anger... maybe. Wagging fingers is kind of exhausting now that I think about it. Nevermind. I'll just pretend I didn't stop to admire this work and act surprised when I meet a dissected, four-armed person in the game.

Seriously though, the first game was a lot of fun, especially the DLC with Donkey Kong. If you've put in this much effort to represent it with your fantastic art, then I'm guessing the sequel is even better than the original.

MorDoodles responds:

Not to worry, I was just playing with forms. If it somehow gonna end up as a spoiler I'm gonna be really surprised xd

I never played the first one tbh. I downloaded the demo for this and then had so much fun that I just bought it. I will probably try the first one after this one.

A strong desire to play with a new set of colours, eh? Understandable. I, too, used to do that with new boxes of crayons, markers, and pencils when I was a kid. I had to see what everything looked like on paper. You went with spirals and I either did zigzags or weirdly-shaped blobs with very little space between them. It was the sort of thing a lot of classmates did with the outside of their folders while waiting for the school day to end.

Thank you for sharing, Teo. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

TrandafirTeodora responds:

I did enjoy the rest of my day.
Thank you for your kind words.

Still haven't played the game so this goes above my head. Is there a particular reason why the mirror has conversations with the devil? The devil, by the way, just makes me think of the flamboyant Red Guy from Cow and Chicken and I am Weasel. Under your recommendation, I do have the game wishlisted. I will eventually play it. After that, remind me to come back to this and see if the added context helps me to appreciate this beyond simply admiring the devil's shapely butt cheeks.

ICam2k responds:

Not much other than the fact that it's just a inside joke of mine that pretends to have "world building" and I thought would be funny to add that in (and to make the background less boring).
Surely must be the inspiration since I've seen the official AntonBlast account reference this character several times, although I also think he has bits of Dr Robotnik from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog in terms of facial features like his "black void with yellow beads" eyes (also I love both of the shows as kid, even besides the more popular ones like the Eds and the PPG and the two awful kids with their Grim Reaper being held captive and that fraidy dog living in a lone house with a failed elderly couple and...).
I might, I might not but I might. heh

Outside of the Deep Cut references in the corner, I don't really spot any details. She does have a nice sarcastic grin. Most art I've seen of Marie does not have her smile at all, so the sight of it here is a little creepy to me. Oh, I noticed a picture of "Agent 2", so I guess that explains her look here. I know nothing of the context, but I like how that appeared when I decided to look up official artwork of her smiling to see if they exist. What does the 1 2 3 4 mean? Reading it just made me think of the song by Coolio and now I got "Sumpin' New" stuck in my head. Thanks. I hate it.

ICam2k responds:

Little you know about her crooked smile of death. You fool.
Jokes aside, the numbers are actually the codenames for the agents in New Squidbeak Splatoon once run by Captain Craig Cuttlefish. Kind of an agent team sent in to mantain order in Inkopolis from potential attacks (mostly from Octarians given that campaigns that feature them in). 1 is Callie, 2 is obviously Marie, 3 is the player inkling from S1 (to which is now replaced by the one from S3 as they've been promoted into a captain) and 4 is the one from S2.
Well, excuuuuse me for adding countdowns on scribbled papers!

Oh yeah! ...still need to play that DLC. I've been finding all sorts of excellent indie games that haven't garnered even half the attention PT has received so I've not found the time to revisit the tower. Someone's gotta show some love to the lesser-known titles, right?

Peppino's expression is perfect, but his slander towards goblins is undeserved. Even they are... well, okay, most are better than The Noise and should not be lumped in with that clown. More respect to Noisette and her patience with him, I suppose. Sharing this art with a friend and hoping it might get him away from Z1R racing for a little while. He enjoys it, but he also clearly needs a break from it.

Thank you as always, Cami. Go eat some pizza... wait. You posted this on the 14th day of the 3rd month. 3/14... 3.14. π Day. Pie day. Pizza Pie Day. Very clever of you. *slow clap*

ICam2k responds:

Curious about your thoughts on it. Not gonna spoil too much (if that even counts given that you play the same ame but with a different character) but the animations are always the best treat. These did the Noise justice in terms of personality and the moveset is super versatile besides the lack of some. Although I still think Peppino is just as fun purely because he is challenging.
I've been keeping tabs on other indies as well, there's that one game that I remember seeing called "Morsels" set to release on february... of this year, it's probably out now.
Knowing the regular ol' chef running the pizzeria in the middle of the hill (and slaughtering dozens of people inside the tower even for his own cause), I highly doubt he would give any kind of respect for anything that's less "human-like", even less for the guy who's other job is to make his life miserable.
"noise secretly loves noisette but doesnt want to face the responsibility of adulthood.""thats his character arc" from the (defunct) Pizza Tower Discord in 2021. Not sure if that fact is reduntant or not (probably just a joke by McPig), but maybe there's some merit that these two, despite how unfortunate it sounds, they're kind of meant each other. There are plenty of scenes and some sketched comics that showcase Noisette's character being a bit of an airhead and despite how minor they seem, Noise does tip her some extra cash besides the boss gates -wait no- not spoiling anything yet.
Hope that works out! I sure I went through something like that. heh
OH GOD. I swear, this was not intentional! ...then again, it is a perfect timing. Are pizzas pies? Are we pizza pieing?

Interesting. I thought most of them were much shorter than humans... more like goblins or dwarves in height. Cipher and Padre are an amazing-looking pair of... whatever they are and Acht is kind of cute. What are they? ...a goth or emo type of octoling? Why is there a metal wall phone from the early 1900s?

ICam2k responds:

Even I had that thought until one of my friends at dA pointed out that Marina is actually 178cm... which is the average human height (you could probably tell how shocked I was upon learning this lol). From what I can gather though, most people speculated that both Inkfish's average height is 1.50, but there have been notable exceptions... like Off the Hook. I Eight would at least gain some inches since in-game time canonically moves with real world and there some pieces of concept art to showcase that, so I would at least apply that in some form.
These types of species that these two are come from Malacostraca in which crabs are part of, so maaaaaaybe they're crustaceans. (don't look up "Luciferidae" though, you'll risk yourself of getting the "deepsea fear" while witnessing a stroke of fascination)
Mhmm, they wear these shades because they didn't like their eyes making them look cute, wears mostly black and has boots, broke the dress code during the Octo Valley days, likes cramped spaces and doesn't like going outside all that much and is rather laid-back. Suppose that checks it.
You'll find out soon enough. heh

The name had me thinking of Beast Wars. The description reminded me of Dinosaucers. The trope of carnos vs. herbos is like a prehistoric version of Beastars (Zootopia, too, probably, but I never saw that). All sorts of animation going through my mind now thanks to your simple remake of an old story. If you had an ongoing concept like this, it would benefit from having a "poorly" drawn aesthetic. Easier to draw, animate, and even turn into marketable plushies and other merch. Remember, factors like what an accurate depiction of a velociraptor's appearance might be don't really matter unless you're trying to market yourself as being historical... educational... blah blah blah. All you need to focus on is delivering an interesting story with likable characters. Be as inaccurate as you wish if it's for the sake of entertainment.

ToggleDragon responds:

the thought of an animated Dino Wars gave me so many ideas. i think i'll make an animatic later.

Depending on the situation, change is a necessity or a luxury and I'm noticing it is becoming more of a luxury as I grow older and struggle more with adapting. Change is scary, but the thought of not being able to change in the future seems more terrifying.

MoeAnguish responds:

Personally, i liken being stuck and unable to change to practically being 3 feet into my own grave. Because being any way for too long (although that varies) can and will reach a point where you suddenly drop the other 3 feet down and can't ever go back.

Marina: "...and someday a loud gremlin half your size will somehow manage to pin you down and make you her partner."

Younger Marina: "Should I be scared?"

Marina: "Only if you forget the safe word."

ICam2k responds:

Had to hold my breath from emitting a loud laughter. This almost comes close to DBZA territory.
(technically Marina is the one who followed Pearl around when they met on Mt. Nantai and blurted to her "let's be a band!" in her limited inklish, so it's actually the other way around lol)
