The stupid stinky rabbit has been stuck in my head, so I wanted to make some kind of poster for his original game appearance. Yes, I did miss out on the eye scars, no I will not go back and add them in because it's already been a while and the less I think about "Bill Afties: Least Ethical Frankenstein", the better.

Publishing this at 11th of June, 2025.

Some of my friends have been playing Dandy's World, and whilst I can't knock the game - every time I see those "Twisted" designs, I want to make them MORE. Why not take their insecurities/biggest character traits/coolest design elements and just go HAM with it, you know? Anyways I had fun with these so far and Sprout's Freckles should be white like strawberry seeds. Thank you for your time.

Happy Pride month! In honour of the season (and also to show off my latest - possibly best - self-representation) I decided to make this little thing. Remember that we all deserve respect, kindness, and compassion! No matter if you care for people platonically, familially, romantically or otherwise, we have a community with each other and through that community we find strength and belonging. I am honoured to get to share so many communities with wonderful artists, creatives, and people - including the queer community at large. You guys are awesome. Remember to hydrate for me, yeah?

(I know he's evil and terrible, but his biggest crime to me will always be being a British man who moved his family to Utah <3) The stinky rabbit man is going to be in Dead by Daylight! Maybe someone will teach him what a furry is and he'll get some realisations.

That line at the start is an actual line from Doug, and may have activated my own internal Liam Noises (Pretentious Monologue) Versions below are a textless version, and a version with characters BEHIND the dialogue boxes so you can read it clearly if you so choose :3

A poem about art

There is a feeling I want to capture with my art.

It is a feeling I know I could never fully capture, because

Even now, I cannot begin to think of how to show it.

It is the anticipation of a kiss. The electricity in the air before a lightning strike. The breath taken just before a word.

The moment in between non-existance and being. The moment between nothing, and everything.

Even now my words don't do it justice Yet I will babble on endlessly

In the hopes that, like my art, each word may give a fragmentum of it's magesty

And maybe One day, all of it will be put together

Every frame, every word, every feeling I try to put out into the world

And you might see In some crude approximation

The beauty that lies within

True Creation

"Where have you been, how are you doing" This was literally me 4 hours ago. I am at least better enough to draw at the computer now :3

[orlock-artbook]

I've wanted to make these designs for a while - I still haven't picked out audios to use them with, but I think the shape language matches their vibes ... right?

[orlock-artbook]

Got bored. Started making another kind of guy. this one is unfinished (of course, these are the rough sketches), but I am liking the vibe :3

[orlock-artbook]

What am I doing when I'm not posting? Well, practicing new art styles by turning myself into a character, of course :3 what else do you do?

(This is an attempt to mimic the style of Beautiful Glitch's "Monster Prom" series, specifically so I can have a custom avatar for streaming Monster Prom 4: Monster Con because I LOVE that game)

Gods I LOVE seeing merbs with tails headcanons, and the spotting you gave Stork is so 🤌🤌🤌🤌 chef's kiss, 11/10

Awww, thank you kindly!!! I had a lot of fun speculating about what kind of environment would actually make sense for what we know about Terra Merbia and the comments about Stork himself (being compared to both a salamander and a toad by The Raptors, both of which being amphibians) I'm genuinely so glad to see that people are liking this, and giving attention to a show I've loved for a literal decade plus now X3

[orlock-artbook]

Saw your post on merbs and your oc, was wondering what stork would look like in your style? If that's ok :3

Well, thank you kindly for asking!!! I had a lot of fun drawing this today. In a general/canon sense, I don't think Stork would look much different. He is still quite a green boi, with some spots on his upper torso - and since he is constantly stressed due to paranoia, living in the wastelands for 10 years, and actively fighting an army - yeah, I don't think he'd regrow a tail within the canon timeline. But - that gave me an excuse to explore some other things! What Stork would look like younger, how his tail would develop (and if the markings got lighter or darker as Merbs age), and how his tail would look in general. I mostly just stole inspiration from his canon design for what his neck and shoulders look like, but I still think this was fun ^w^; (And yes, his green-ness is more saturated than in canon, because I thought it would be nicer to look at on an otherwise colourless page) Hope you like it, and don't mind the design ^w^

Have I strained my wrist? yes. Should I be resting and yet haven't for a week? Also yes. However - Storm Hawks. It was cool, I missed it, and I wanted to make fun things with the under-explored concept of Merbs and Terra Merbia.

[orlock-artbook]

I return from the Art Mines with a cool lil guy I made, please enjoy :3

Thought it would be good design practice, and I was kind of right. Posted 26th February, 2025

There is nothing that reminds me more of the beauty of Autistic Hyperfixations, than what my past week/month has been.

A long time ago, I started playing an Otome Game called Obey Me! (It's a good game, with compelling writing, and a good workaround for representing You/The Main Character). One of the characters I got very attached to was the Butler, Barbatos. His love of different teas, and the variety, and his insistence on high quality tea had me curious about it all; I much prefer a Flavoured Water of some kind, I find it generally easier to drink.

So, I looked into Tea Quality, Loose Leaf Teas; and then High Quality, Full Leaf Looseleaf teas that have no crumbs, just pure quality no-bitter aftertaste. And recently, I bought a whole lot of tea, enough to last me to the end of the year, because I have been wanting it, and I love the quality, and it's been worth saving up for it.

How does this all tie together? Well ... Since I could afford it, and I just got a whole bunch of high quality teas ... Why not buy the Obey Me! Barbatos plushie so he can enjoy my high quality teas with me?

I look forward to seeing him in June. And I'll be sure to have a nice glass of Shō Pu-er ready for him when he gets here ♥
