and now for shameless shop plugging

Crickzilla.redbubble.com

I’m selling graphic designs for the time being until I get some digital art.

Shamrless site plugging

Advertising my website or this otherwise dead tumblr. Just so I can get more fame and support for my future.

Gau is such a cute and funny character and this could be what happen if he meets my husbando, D. Is he mistaking him for a monster to learn a new rage?

Feel free to reblog before I shut this Tumblr down. I could leave as an archive, but I have too much suffering and lost friends through the past years. I can't see myself keep it for long. Especially since I was a hyper fixated suffering fan of a flash game for like 6 years.

A bunch of Final Fantasy doodle for the months to bid a happy year. Just before I start my second summer semester. (The bottom-Left is an art trade I've done, but you get the point. The Second Gau drawing will be in a seperate post so the Vivi Oritier pic is at least readable.)

I'm not staying on Tumblr for long. I will delete it for the forcoming summer so feel free to save or reblog what I have before that time comes.

Sure I'll post this too... I named Gau, Diego in my Final Fantasy VI playthrough/stream (it was Timmy, but Diego fit way better). It's not a reference to Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, but rather a childhood show I like, Go, Diego Go!

Since they are kids that are associated with animals, I figure this cosplay works well. The Coeurl (which isn't an enemy in the game, I just added it to be a little exotic), is the replacement for Baby Jaguar.

I love Gau, he's my favorite FF6 character and pretty fun to play with. I will upload for art of him and other Final Fantasy Characters for my real final post here. Maybe I'll also leave my thought on my old fanfics too...

It felt so hard for me to close my Tumblr account as someone who has been using the site for 9 years and then slowly stopped using it when my interest on posting here just wither away. Personal reasons mostly, but

If no one is gonna reblog or like my content anymore... Why even bother continue my presence.

From these days, I will collect some of the art that art that isn't anywhere else except maybe Twitter before closing my Tumblr for good this summer.

I'm going to miss contrinbuting Crystal Story content here... Thank you for everything...

[jacquirebriggs]

I'm gonna spend less time on social networks. But I am really proud of this one. Like really proud. I couldn't not not share this one in the public even though I did not take the photo right and having to adjust the tones (for the 100th time) That'll be a waste of my talent. I posted this is every site I'm in... except here. Can't just let a half-dragon steal the star of this pic so I drew an actual dragon (resembling my ideal of his true form) in the back. I did say I was going to post only a few more art before I delete this tumblr. So why not show my most satisfying one yet? Truth is, due to me spriting, I haven't drawn much at all this year and may draw less in the future due to life.

[jacquirebriggs]

hmm… You know I think I’ll post some final pieces before I close it for it for good. After the last one, I will close it in about 1 or 2 weeks.

[jacquirebriggs]

hiya.

People used to comment on web comics.

People used to comment on fanfiction.

People used to comment on fanart.

People used to comment on OCs.

I hate "content" culture.

I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.

People used to be excited about the art that other people created.

People used to want to share that excitement with creators.

I hate this future.

Very fun time I have here in the last days, eh?

I said I was just gonna abandon Tumblr after New Year's Eve bar a few announcements and lurking. But now with this whole panic and chaos about Tumblr selling our data to AI.

Before you say "Glaze and Nightshade", I have like so many drawings and reposted art (like commissions) lying here and my sideblogs, it'll take forever and I heard both poisoning tools use up so much CPU that my old laptop will die upon running it.

So yeah, I'm very lazy and busy and I may delete this account or just wipe all stuff for good (not that my crummy drawings will be good for feeding AI) someday.

I’m just tired of these artist migrations,man. Felt like there is not one safe place I see all art in harmony.

also, I haven’t been drawing much lately, I’m busy with creating a game and making sprites.

Me and the oldest flash game of my childhood.

[jacquirebriggs]

Exact how I feel when Many artists closed their Deviantart account for the exact reason. When people deleted their Art, chances are they’ll never be found anywhere ever again.

Unless it get reposted earlier and Pinterest’s and other sites that allows cross-sharing Art (Twitter and here) algorithm decides to smile on you.

even then, Pinterest also in hot water because of AI and reported rampant account deletions.

I want a Time Machine to rescue all the art that’s gone from the internet man.

i feel kind of selfish but i don't want people to delete their art from tumblr bc a) it'd be useless, they've already sold what they have to ai companies, and b) tumblr is one of the only functional websites to post and view art on anymore and fucking everywhere is selling data nowadays. man. at least there's an opt out button but it's only been introduced after they scraped all our shit. what a hellish world.

[jacquirebriggs]

rebloghing even though I’m throughly inactive here. Just like DA.

I felt like it’s time to never touch this site again!

This shit is exhausting cuz Istg….

One more…

Mortal Kombat Armageddon All-Stars is over

I should have said it last year. But yeah. It’s over and canceled.

One reason includes College has taken over me and I have a ton of work to do. That’s life and now I’m nearly 24, I couldn’t bear myself to continue that monstrosity I’ve started in high school. Look at the earlier episodes, my teenage self doesn’t know how to write a story and it has so many inconsistencies that are planned to rewritten in the future. With so many characters, it’s super overwhelming to get every pre-11 Kombatnt in one slide.

Another reason is I’ve moved on to other interests. I’ve cared so less about Mortal Kombat since 11 is nearing its zenith. I’ve watched MK1 videos but nothing is pulling me back. Not helping much is the game itself is a waste of money.

Third reason is I have little time to work on PowerPoint stories. Mass burnout. No longer interested in working on it. My ban from the Crystal Story server just lessens to motivation of me making more PowerPoint stories. Not helped by said college and I’m working on a game.

The next update would have been a double-episode drop with Episode 32B featuring the challenge fillin up loose ends of this lousy plot. The challenge is race up to the cliff to steal an egg from the Mechacrow Shang Tsung owns and then race back down to avoid getting vaporized by it. Chameleon was eliminated due to a rule they added.

Episode 35, a challenge where they cooperate to create the best monster and compete with others to destroy others. Kung Lao or someone irrelevant would have been eliminated.

I’m sorry to announce these news and I would love to finish the whole thing because I have real ideas for future episodes. But life and burnouts caught up to me and I have no more time.

I’m sorry.

I hope you can check out my stuff in the future despite broken promises…

Final Art before the New Year. What better way to end it other than a group hug.

I have one operation in mind. Win Lan back.
