200 subscriber video poll!
A massive THANK YOU to each and every one of you for supporting this channel! We just surpassed 200 subscribers this week, and that's just absolutely wild to me. I am so grateful for the opportunity to share my minecraft adventures with you, and I hope to continue posting many more for you in the years to come!
In celebration of reaching 200 subs, I wanted to extend my gratitude by asking all of you what the 200 subscriber special video should be. Here are some ideas I came up with, but feel free to offer your own suggestions in my askbox or in the replies:
Another Backseat Building: I've been considering making the concept behind the Skizz Giraffe video into a series; taking the best worst GTB builds and testing to see if they could have worked if they had more building time and space
A proper animatic: If you have any suggestions for this one, I'd love to hear them!
Outtakes Compilation: A bunch of never-before-seen funny moments that unfortunately I just couldn't fit into a video
Server tour: I have three unedited world tours, each of a different SMP I've been on in the past two years. I have received some requests to post them, so here's your opportunity to bump their priority on my editing list!
The options above are just what I could think of; if you have any other kinds of videos you'd like to see from me, please let me know! Once again, thank you all so much for your continued support, and I look forward to posting the 200 sub special, whatever it will be!

If I were to make a mcyt animatic, are there any moments in particular you'd like to see? Either from my own videos, or from more well-known series like Hermitcraft or the Life Series. If you've got any ideas, please share them in the replies or send me an ask! I'd love to hear your suggestions

How To Beat Decked Out 2 Deepfrost
I made my first ever animatic! Just a silly little clip is from a recent stream with @koffizinhomc and Dee. Koffi and I were about to do a Decked Out 2 run together, and chat wanted us to do the hardest difficulty (we'd previously only managed to do well on easy and occasionally medium). We ended up failing step 2 lol

(If you like this, be sure to drop by Dee's Twitch (www.twitch.tv/dramaticherbalist) Tuesdays at 3pm EST and Thursdays at 9pm EST for more sillies!)

Skizz gets in trouble with the law for leaving floating trees… he really shouldn't have Been That Guy
Process TL;DR:
Skizz has played two different law-adjacent roles this season and I thought it'd be funny for them to come after early season Skizz for making all those early game mistakes
The hardest part of this process was the composition, as it was hard to balance storytelling with visual appeal
I switched from Sketchbook to Medibang Paint for this one and the timelapse recording went so much more smoothly (video imminent!)
One of my favourite things about Skizz's HC10 season is how much he commits to his various character roles on the server. They are all unique and entertaining in their own ways, and I thought it'd be funny to put those strong personalities all together in one scene. Since his two main roles have some sort of involvement with the law, it only made sense for them to come after his early season self (Don't Be That Guy Skizz) for breaking some basic server etiquette. My initial plan was to have POE Skizz writing up Don't Be That Guy (DBTG) for leaving floating trees and Lawyer Skizz coming in to defend DBTG, but it was hard to make it clear who Lawyer Skizz is actually coming after, so he could also have teamed up with POE Skizz to bring down the (literal) hammer on DBTG. It's entirely up to your interpretation. I just like his general threatening aura.
The main thing that made Lawyer Skizz's intentions difficult to portray was the fact that I needed to balance storytelling with visual appeal. I needed to make it clear what was going on and why, while making sure all the characters' faces were visible, and ensuring the overall positioning of everything looked good and visually flowed well. I probably sketched at least ten different options for this piece at work (to save time), narrowed them down to about five strong ideas, and then got many people's input on the composition and posing (shoutout to my partner, various friends with degrees in media design, and the spoonies discord server). I finally landed on this one, as it was one of my favourites composition-wise. It was the most interesting to look at, everyone's face is visible, and it communicates enough of the main story elements to at least give a general sense of what's going on. The only issue I had with this one was figuring out how to make the floating tree obvious without upsetting the visual balance of the rest of the piece. I'm not sure I really fixed it, but there wasn't much I could do without starting all over, and I figured the story is still clear enough even if it's not immediately apparent what DBTG's crime was.
Tech-wise, I have way less to say about this one than the Joel piece I did a few weeks ago, and that's a good thing. The main issue I had with the other piece was recording the timelapse, because my main drawing program (Skechbook Pro) doesn't have a timelapse feature. After all the problems I had last time, I decided I was willing to switch to an entirely new drawing program if it meant I was able to avoid all that mess, and luckily for me, the drawing program I used to use before Sketchbook (Medibang Paint) has a timelapse feature! This was a huge relief, because I already know how to use it and I know my tablet can handle it. Everything went smoothly and I am so relieved to have a solution (I even fixed that problem my monitor started having back when I was troubleshooting the Joel piece recording setup!). You might notice, however, that this piece is still rather low-res. Unlike last time, that was not an unfortunate accident; I just didn't scale up the dimensions. Don't know why. Sorry about that lol
Since the tech side of things went so well this time, I'll have a timelapse video coming out shortly and I'm very excited to share it with you all! I am also considering doing timelapse videos of some of my other art (most likely my video thumbnails) now that I've got a reliable recording setup for that. (Is that something y'all'd be interested in? Please let me know!)
Overall, I wanted to say a big thank you to Skizz for making such wonderfully entertaining videos. I look forward to the rest of the season, and I can't wait to see people going through the finished pyramid!
I also want to thank all of you reading this for your time and support! I know this isn't usually the sort of thing I post, so it makes me happy that people seem to enjoy it just as much as my regular content. I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Don't Be That Guy - Skizz HC Fanart Submission
Tumblr media
More detailed post coming tomorrow, but the voting deadline is coming up very soon so I wanted to let y'all know I made a submission for Skizz's HC Fanart Gallery! It's called Don't Be That Guy, and features Skizz, POE Skizz, and Lawyer Skizz.
This piece took longer than expected, and I'm worried posting my submission this close to the deadline means not as many people will have seen it/had a chance to vote on it, so it would mean so so much to me if y'all went and voted for my piece! Be sure to check out the other submissions as well, everyone did a really great job and I look forward to seeing Skizz's art display on the server!

(Really hoping the March 15 deadline includes March 15. I'm posting this before midnight on March 14 in my timezone, but it is already March 15 for Joel.)
Process TL;DR:
I've decided a group of Joels is called a mania.
My favourite part of Joel's season has been his many characters, as well as the Hermit Baths On Hermitcraft podcast, so I decided to combine those two things in this drawing.
This piece started as a bunch of sketches at work and took me about 20 hours to draw, plus an additional 8 hours fighting tech issues (including a crash that lost me the completed drawing (luckily I took this screenshot just before)).
Despite my struggles with that + screen rec software, there'll be a timelapse video of my drawing process coming soon on my channel!
Re: the title, I've decided a group of Joels is called a "mania" (like how a group of horses, for example, is a "herd").
One of my favourite things about Joel's season are all the fun intros and characters he's created, which inspired me to create something that showcases some of the main Joels we've met so far. I also really like the Hermit Baths On Hermitcraft (Another Podcast Hosted By A Straight White Male), so I figured the bathhouse would be the perfect place for a mania of Joels! I would've loved to include all the Joels, but by my count, there are at least 26 distinct Joels in this season so far, which is far too many Joels for me to fit in one image (and several of them are hard to distinguish based on appearance alone).
Since I could only include so many, I tried to choose Joels who are either recurring characters, or relevant to other things Joel has done in his videos. With that in mind, on this episode of Hermit Baths On Hermitcraft we've got Joel Who Asks You To Subscribe, News Reporter Joel, Bad Boy Joel (the statue counts as being in the season imo), Bartender (Horse Killer? :0) Joel, Officer Joel (RIP Detective Joel, would've loved to include him but it wouldn't be lore-accurate for him to be alive), Joel Who Totally Isn't Obsessed With Etho, Frogger Joel, Podcast Host Joel, and Singer Joel.
A few details I wanted to highlight:
News Reporter Joel always has a headline scroll bar with him. He doesn't know how or why. It's just there.
Joel Who Totally Isn't Obsessed With Etho not only has the Etho shirt on, but he's also in etho cosplay (headband) and has Etho face floaties (no idea where that came from but once I'd thought it I couldn't un-think it).
I'm most proud of Frogger Joel's outfit. He's got a froggy hat, frog crop top, lilypad shorts, and frog shoes with lilypad tops.
Singer Joel's kimono was originally going to have a pattern of symbols relating to Joel's season, but then I realized those wouldn't show up very well with the lowered resolution. The planned symbols included music discs, xp bottles, axolotls, slime balls, honeycomb, frogs, horses, glow squid, and glow berries.
Podcast Host Joel's abs are drawn on. Gem said it so it's canon.
Bartender Joel's vest is the same colour and pattern as that horse head...
And now for the process! I know a lot of you probably aren't that interested in it, but I spent a lot of time on this so I'd at least like to record my efforts.
This piece actually started on paper, because I work a lot and I knew I wouldn't have time to do the whole piece if I didn't at least do some advance planning during down time at my job. However, all I had at work was some scrap paper and a pencil (I couldn't even find an eraser the day I started this!), so I needed to find some way to get the aspect ratio correct without a ruler. While there were no rulers at work, I was able to find some mini origami paper, and since that's a perfect square, I was able to use it to replicate the sizing I'd chosen. I sketched out the general background layout, used two of those lines + the edge of another piece of paper to determine the vanishing point, then re-drew the rest of the background according to the point I'd determined. These techniques worked shockingly well, and when I scanned the drawing and checked my measurements in my drawing program, they were surprisingly accurate!
With the scan uploaded, along with a page of outfit design sketches I had also done at work, I ran into my next hurdle: screen recording software. To keep a long and agonizing story short, I draw on an old tablet that has very little storage, RAM, or processing power, so OBS + my drawing program were not an option. The drawing program itself doesn't have a timelapse feature either, so I had to go find another piece of software that would meet my needs. I even tried using my tablet as a third screen for my PC, which could absolutely handle the processing and storage needs of this project, but the latency was far too high for that to be a feasible option. Trying all of these options took at least 8 hours and at one point had the side effect of permanently messing up something on my main PC monitor that causes it to reset all its settings periodically (if anyone has any idea what's going on with that, I'd love to not have to re-do my settings every couple minutes or so).
My tablet's limited storage also resulted in me almost losing a portion of my footage, but you can rest assured that I've managed to save all of it, and if it's useable I will be editing it down into a timelapse + process video to upload to my channel! The video will probably include a lot of the information here, but hopefully it'll be a bit more interesting and engaging! (I was originally going to link the video here instead of writing all these paragraphs, but the drawing took so long I haven't had time to make the video).
Finally, after spending basically all of my free time at home during the past two weeks working on this drawing, I finished it just a couple hours ago.
I hit save.
And got an error message.
Storage issue.
Since the image resolution is intended to be reduced anyway (for minecraft painting, but also just how tumblr treats images), I grabbed a screenshot of the finished piece before my tablet crashed and rebooted. It saved some of my work, but not all of it, so this is now the only complete version of the piece in existence.
At the end of the day, I'm just glad I finished it on time and am happy with the final product. If you've read this far, thank you so much for your patience with my rambling, I hope you enjoy the final piece as much as I do. And thank you to Joel for creating such fun videos and awesome builds! I look forward to the rest of your first Hermitcraft season.

Hi, I'm Aspen!
I'm an aspiring Minecraft YouTuber and would love your support as I continue to grow my channel. Even just subscribing, turning on post notifications, and watching a few of my videos goes a long way!
Here's my channel and channel trailer:
youtube
This blog is where I'll keep you all up-to-date on my latest videos and plans for the channel, as well reblogging any fanart and memes that come my way.
Right now, I'm primarily posting about the HyperFix SMP (formerly AuDHD - we've done a soft reset and format update), where each my friends and I build according to specific themes, run occasional events, and have a lot of laughs.
If you're looking for something more dramatic, I have also posted a season and a half of the Obviois SMP, where my friends and I play several games based on the Life Series/Traffic SMP (created by Grian). Our first season, Lasting Life, is complete, while our second season, Love Life, will be wrapping up shortly!
Alongside these two SMPs, I also post miscellaneous short videos from various other servers I'm in, and I have a few longer videos in the works right now as well. I look forward to sharing it all with you!
