Im making a very toll thing and am really happy with how its going so here is a teaser

Could you do a quick scar chart/list for jerry rosa and jack? if you have the time

hehehe this also gives me an excuse to just doodle them and do more poses and anatomy practice~

I have the list and where I always draw all their scars including the ones that would normally be covered like Jack's chest scars or the one he would have on his leg stump. Jack and Jerry both have keloid scars which are the types that get raised when they heal- Tris even mentions the ones on Jack's chest are keloids in vol 4- those are the ones that are more prone to tightening up and getting irritated easily because of overgrown scar tissue The rest for all of them are all flat scars

Do you still take commissions, by any chance? 🥺👉👈

(Specifically Homestuck related, if that's okay? I've been looking for someone to design/draw some of my trolls lusii for while, and your art style is incredible 👌💖)

Oh yeah- ill be able to do some this weekend, peeps can shoot me dms whenever they want though

[clockworkreapers]

[clockworkreapers]

Idk if this was ever asked before but how do you came to the Homestuck fandom( and through this creating you own AU of it)?

It has not been asked before no

Easy answer though, a friend in 5th grade found it and talked about it a lot, it was a lil after the the trolls were introduced into the comic I think?

Yep, 5th grade, I was like... 11? (Im 25 now good lord wtf)

Idk if you would classify it as being "in" the fandom though- unless you'd consider someone who just casually read it and shared videos with the 5 other friends in our own bubble "in the fandom". I listened to the let's read, I read the pages in computer class after finishing my work, I played the mini games since the site wasn't blocked. BUUUUUUUUTTTT I generally avoided and didn't participate in it at any point in online spaces, wasn't even on tumblr till 2016 and by then I was more into fantrolls and all I've ever really done is post art and scuttle away. I do work on the HS fan calendar though!

I made one of your most recent tftgs pieces my wallpaper and I keep staring at jack like he's my husband serving in the war and I'm a lonely wife

just thought you needed to hear that

- 🌀

Aww- I'm glad you like it so much! As I say I'm always 100% fine with people using my art however they want as long as it isn't to train AI.

Sorry I don't think he will ever stop experiencing the horrors though, he's too plot relevant alas.

[clockworkreapers]

How would a meeting between Jack Townsend and Sauron Yetzar go?

I know that are two different Universes these two are in but I'm curious.

The idea is very silly cuz yeah completely different universes, completely different themes of those universes too, and they'd be completely alien to one another.

Sauron would freak out he wants to go home and there is a pale skinned alien with no horns and weird eyes. Plus Sauron doesn't know english he cant really understand alien, he cant even speak himself. He would just want to avoid any and everything he can and try to find a way back home.

Jack probs would think he's another hallucination tbh. When you are him and have seen ALL the weird shit and the horrors and so many supernatural things you don't understand... thats his normal Thursday. Whatever the tall alien demon looking thing is doing thats none of his business.

Are you okay with giving out invites to the TFTGS discord server, or if not, do you know anyone specific on tumblr who is? I’d ask around on Reddit too but I don’t have an account there lol

I am yes, people can ask me and ill poke one of the mods for an invite

You can also ask @gas-station-chai and he can do the same!

If other people in Pain Gravy who have tumblrs wanna add on that they are ok with getting invites for community members go for it!

[clockworkreapers]

Is there a TFTGS discord server? I've seen a few people mention something like it

And if so, is it 18+ only?

Yes there is a discord server, its called Pain Gravy! No it is not 18+ only. Anyone can join you just need to ask someone already in it to request an invite (Hi, I am there so are a few others who are also on tumblr). OR you go poke the mods (not Jack) on the TFTGS reddit.

[clockworkreapers]

you know... maybe its not the best idea to look at the eldritch horror that speaks in comic sans

[clockworkreapers]

Howdy again!! Do you have a reference for all of Cyrusk's tattoos? Because I cannot draw them from memory or from certain angles anymore 😔😔😔 If you do not have one, that's ok. It will make my life much easier 😀😀😀

I do not surprisingly enough- well I do but its in a very old sketchbook and its in pencil- god they are old. I tend to just draw them from memory not gonna lie, I can tell u where they all are though using other art I got on hand cuz yeah.... heeees got a lot.

the only one i cant really show ref for is his snakedad tat and the one he gets later that has Sauron's sign on it but they are on places that are generally covered or get too close to intimate areas. The snake is just the three heads rising up across the side of his lower ribcage then winding down over his hip to his thigh, curling in one loop then down to the tail that almost reaches his knee. That is the best i can do with that one.

hi i saw your post on where you think tftgs takes place! i met jack townsend last year at a convention (hes so great) and i actually asked him about it, and he said he took inspiration from Pleasant Hill, Louisiana!

Ohhh yeah that makes sense, that town really is tiny damn- I bet if you somehow combined the two with goose creek you'd get the goose creek in the books. That kinda small town gives it a trailer park and put it next to a big river and train tracks.

I do remember him saying something about it in the snakes paw thing- that I think is unlisted at the moment- something about the town itself and how its kinda of just a mix of some of the towns he has been in (and most of them not being the idealized small Americana stuff you see in movies). Which makes sense cuz its honestly better to go off what you have known and experience cuz it would give you a more solid ground to start.

Hi reaper! If you (or your sona/oc) were an employee at the shitty 24 hour gas station at the edge of town, how would you mysteriously go missing?

Ohhh ok so i do have a sona (a fantroll as of now still, the one with the clock hand horns and purple hair and boots) and even if she... it... >.> was human still would probs wanna have fun with it and be like oh so she just sorta pops in and out of existence at the most random times but still seem to know way more than she should- while also being stupidly cryptic and somewhat... forbidding? Before eventually just going forever and no one knows where the fuck she went. Probably wont even be remembered either cuz she would never effect the plot for anything.

I like my sonas and lil conduits into interacting with any media i put them in to be weird shrodingers things that live in the fourth dimensions since we as readers who are looking into this world know their past present and future and could insert ourselves at any time in this hypothetical AU. Doesn't change anything about the main plot though.

Also to be fair my sona as a fantroll is the same thing cuz she ain't existing when i don't wanna in that universe she can just... "observe" everything.

Essentially I like being a bit of a creecher

[clockworkreapers]

There is just something about Brother Riley I really like....

[clockworkreapers]

If tftgs was adapted into an animated series or movie, I sincerely hope you end up being a lead director on it because you have done so much for this fandom 🫶

AWJYUFVGG you think too highly of me, thats really sweet- wouldent that be the dream though FR. I WILL SAY- I do have a bachelors of fine arts and I know how to storyboard and I am very fast so if I ever got the chance to that is what I would be good at- it would be super cool if it would ever happen cuz I'd love to, at least participate in some way (blinks at Jack Townsend but it looks like one of those shitty mouse drawn memes in MSpaint)

[clockworkreapers]

Whereabouts do you think TFTGS is set? I discovered wplace a few days ago and I'm tempted to doodle the main 4 wherever the gas station could be....

I think someone asked me where I thought it was set a while back- explained my reasonings as to why cuz it was like a lil logic puzzle in my head. (here) TLDR without all my bullet points as to why: Its most likely set in South Carolina. The town in the books while NOT a "real" place is probs based on Goose Creek SC and what surrounds it. Just give it more of that shitty small town vibe cuz its fictional. (yes I am well aware there is a theory its in Louisiana somewhere but so is New Orleans and if Eric needed to drive over 12 hours to get back to town unless he was driving on a non euclidian interstate highway it cant be in Louisiana. )

Would be interested to know what u found though >.> (people should so talk to me about tftgs)
