[DG!Spwatchton] - Tumblr Posts

I drew this like this past month. A friendly gift given to a good friend of mine I fatefully met in the Undernet fandom group, featuring them as Kris next to my MC, with a motivational message and a generous cupcake of Oreo (because we both love Oreo). Was practicing a new style of painting that I wanted to use for my visual novel, at least for the illustrations and background parts. It took me a while to figure out how to make it to look eye candy enough but guess I managed to pull it out despite being the first time not using my original style, which is more "painterly" I thinks 🤔

Anyhow, I need to keep practicing drawing more or I'll never get the hang of drawing Spwatchton nor anybody else. I also notice that this depiction of him is not accurate to his real height I brainstormed this past weekend (which should be 278 cm ~ roughly 109.44 inches). It's a bit "funny" because Swatch was taller originally, but after the forced hijacking of his data, the final amalgamation got him "compressed" and thus the height and bulk is now less. That reminds me I still need to draw the character sheet of Swatch and the rest of the characters. So much pending work OTL

I apologize if I don't have anything new to show. With my current schedule I barely have time to even stop in front of my tablet to create something new or that would advance the progress of the visual-novel. I hope things get lenient with me before the end of this month, but these RL deadlines are destroying my Darkner soul... and just this past Friday things got awful as I got hit by a sunstroke so badly that it made one of my neighbours to pick me up with her car to leave me at home or I'd just have collapsed in the middle of the street right there. That left my brain fried and in pain up until today, when I feel much better to resume work and check the socials for DMs and whatever else on my mail.

Well, enough of the unpleasantries. During my sun fever thing, I took notes to fleshen out a little more all of the Swatchlings, the 28 of them. With that I only need to draw them all to settle on stone their designs. At least that was some modicum of progress forward...

It's been another while since I uploaded something. The animation is going slow as I'm also multitasking with commissions, and I just wanted to burn steam doing something else that sprung in my mind. Just an overly-stylized Spwatchton with a weird background experiment, nothing too fancy. I'm still brainstorming about how to represent the Creation powers he shares with Swatch 🤔

((edited because I forgot a few tags -- you know what? let's add something more in-line with the visual novel conceptualization -- Spamton after the data hijacking still can't forget certain things from his past (like the Angel) and that still haunts him and produces monsters inside his dreams and sometimes by accident during their waking hours. Good thing that the head butler is there to pull the leash on Spamton in order to avoid him to fall to the amounting ruin of his past self, least they both fall together into the abyss, and Swatch the last thing he wants is to lose the only thing that keeps the monster inside himself at bay 👀))

[[SUPPLANTATION]]

Desperation produces [[THE STRANGEST OF BEDFELLOWS]]… — Spamton

I keep practicing art, against my own best judgement, as it is 3:35 AM already as I type.

If there is something I know is that I need to keep practicing how to convey the concept of the protagonist of the AU. Spamton and Swatch work together in the same body in an uneasy truce, but all the other characters only see the head butler, which is a very convenient disguise for someone who will do everything to survive deletion.

<plops on bed>

This was an old pic I did around the end of February, to thank people for pushing my Ko-Fi milestone up beyond 50. I had the idea of doing a "thank you" commemoration pic every 50 coffees... Oh well.

There is my amphysien-cockatrice phantom bird digital monster and the guy himself, who adopted her by accident when he found an odd stray egg bobbing on one of the acid fountains of the Queen's palace gardens. It's just an spin-off story not really tied with the main plot of the AU, but I liked the idea of Spamton and Swatch taking care of an abandoned v-pet that in the Dark World it becomes more close and personal (and Swatch couldn't resist to adopt yet another birb to the family 👀) (she calls Spwatchton "papa" and she evolves into some sort of witch phantom knight digimon if someone was curious).

If you don't know what an amphysien-cockatrice is I'll leave this here for the record.

I'm still itching to draw stuff but I can't until I get the PSU this coming week :cri:

I wanted to upload something related to my project even if it's old art. Here's the first sketch study I did of teh guy around January, Spamton after hijacking the body of Swatch. Would go for more iterations but one must start from something. I think this would make his birthday around January 28th, though since they both share the same body, that would make it for 3 anniversaries in a single year, Spamton's around May 3rd and Swatch's is February 19th. Lucky guys! 😅

I'm dying to draw him again... asdkljhfgdfjfkjdkj 😭 <crawls back into the beetle pit>

Edit: I forgot to mention that tomorrow I need to go to a doctor appointment to get some pachymetry done. Apparently the pressure of my eyes is 20/20 or something and they want to check if something is afoot that could end with me getting a glaucoma. I'll 🤞 that they don't find anything of import because the last thing I want is to get eye surgery to make my eyes to drain better the liquid inside them. I don't want any sharp or pointy tools getting any close to my eyes 😰

Wanted to give you these badges because wow that art style is really good! Please keep it up!

The old birdman once said that “Patience has its rewards”. For me, it was always [[NO PAIN NO GAINS]], but he would change it back to “Nothing ventured, nothing gained”. Our conclusion, keep working and walking forward, and someone will eventually appear to give you a nice surprise when less you expect it. It was my case with Sears and the rest of my friends, and for Master Swatch — though in a more grim situation — he was shown mercy whilst being at the border of [[THE PRECIPICE OF SANITY]]. We are very grateful for these gifts Anon. And lo they have lit a flame in our [[DIRECTOR]], a good one mind you. [[PANIC !!! THE FURNACES HAVE BEEN STOKED !!! ]] Let’s not waste this kindness. We’re all in great [[HUNGER]] of that. Here’s to you, bucko, may your [[HYPERLINK BLOCKED]] remain unfettered from today on till the next [[ADPOCALYPSE]].

((You don’t know how surprised I was to have all of sudden like 6 pings in my inbox and then saw their contents — you really made my day in that moment Anon, and you still do today 😉))

((but seriously thank you a lot from the bottom of our combined hearts askdhgdffdgskj))
