more people seriously need to explore Chi and Big Bill’s dynamic, those two interacting is so interesting to me!! like the second Bill becomes a mage Chi is like “oh dude I gotchu!! >:3” and teaches him everything he needs to know about arson magic!! Not long after Chi is rescued Bill gives her an empty can he considers valuable as a sign of friendship (even if she didn’t get it at first)!! And I LOVE how they’re the only 18 year olds of The Incident, them becoming adults super recently during the time S2 was happening could be something fun to bond over!! and I obviously have to mention how they’re already supportive of Shrimp’s music career!! (I mean who isn’t in this party?)

Idk they just have a lot of potential for a friendship to be explored and I love them both a lot. platonic Chill my beloved <3

So many Failtopia text posts

This volume (and most likely the next one) is mainly made up of memes I’ve had in my backlog for far too long. I had to double-check so many of them to see if I’d used them already, you have no idea

Previous volume:

One of the things I wanted to draw the most once I had free time, the Digital Circus gang all fancied up for a party! At first I was gonna go a little more serious with their outfits, but they ended up being a little silly by the time I sketched them out. Which I liked!!

Caine and Bubble aren't here because drawing Caine was a STRUGGLE I CAN'T DO IT RIGHT

Something I try to keep in mind when making art that looks vintage is keeping a limited color pallette. Digital art gives you a very wide, Crisp scope of colors, whereas traditional art-- especially older traditional art-- had a very limited and sometimes dulled use of color.

This is a modern riso ink swatch, but still you find a similar and limited selection of colors to mix with. (Mixing digitally as to emulate the layering of ink riso would be coloring on Multiply, and layering on top of eachother 👉)

If you find some old prints, take a closer look and see if you can tell what colors they used and which ones they layered... a lot of the time you'll find yellow as a base!

Misprints can really reveal what colors were used and where, I love misprints...

Something else I keep in the back of my mind is: how the human eye perceives color on paper vs. a screen. Ink and paint soaks into paper, it bleeds, stains, fades over time, smears, ect... the history of a piece can show in physical wear. What kind of history do you want to emulate? Misprinted? Stained? Kept as clean as possible, but unable to escape the bluing damages of the sun? It's one of my favorite things about making vintage art. Making it imperfect!
