Added Allison! She's a little wonky but I still absolutely love it :) I'm going to go and eat my pen now

I haven't drawn Tom an Allison so much, so I might've missed some details, but meh! Who cares bout that :D

batim/batdr ranting- Tom edition

(spoilers, obv)

spiritual successor to this post, mostly I just want to talk abt a theory I've had abt tom for at least 2 years now but I don't think I've seen anybody else talk about. (feel free to correct me)

I'm going to start off comparing Tom's design between BATIM and BATDR.

as is the same with Allison, Tom looks a lot worse for wear in BATDR. he's missing the top of one ear, and several new scars, one of his overall straps is missing, and he generally looks more stained.

but the important part of this rant is that his arm is cut quite a bit higher up!

(also the patches on his knees are gone for some reason?)

presumably due to this higher cut, Tom's wearing a completely different prosthetic in BATDR

we already know abt the cycle deteriorating from Wilson and other assorted fuckery, so I don't really need to talk about that.

but now we get to may main theory, the one I've had for quite a while, and this is one I'm VERY confidant in. I've made a bad collage to demonstrate:

im pretty sure that in the first game, Tom's actually using an arm from the animatronic Bendy in chapter 4.

i mean, LOOK. THEY'RE THE SAME ARM.

but sometime between the two games, he's had to switch to a different prosthetic, possibly multiple times if the loss wasn't instant, like from a battle or something. I'm not sure where he got the new one from (of course, he's a mechanic, he could have just built it himself) but i's love to see other peoples ideas on that front.

again, I don't think I've seen anybody else mention this, but maybe I'm wrong.

Worth trying

Makes them all tiny

Finally figured out how I wanted to draw Boris, so I drew all three of them!!!

I missed out on Brute Boris only cuz I was mainly going for the Boris incarnations that have the same exact body type!! Might draw him later, though :)

Also, yeah, I threw Borkis in there because I REALLY wanted to redesign him

In your opinion, what happened here ?

[xxwildarcherxx]

Bendy and the ink machine content whaaaat!?

Allison and Thomas had to be part of this funny trend xd
