hlvrai having gordon form real connections with video game ai is a parallel to the important bonds we form with online friends and proving how platonic love can be real no matter the barriers and virtual friends are just as important as real friends, this being even more poignant by the fact that the series was orchestrated by longtime online friends just having fun together. in this essay i-
I wanted to do another fully-fledged piece, but I couldn't decide on subject matter, so it just ended up being Benrey. One day I'll draw something that isn't just a character standing around.
Bonus: these alternate color versions that I stumbled upon while playing with gradient maps
I do plan to make more. Dw. I already know what Tommy is. And I have a pretty good idea for Coomer as well. Bubby,,, I'm conflicted. I only got around to these two because I started at like midnight and it's currently 3 am again

I've only gotten more interested in airplane dragons in the last 4 years because I'm around planes and jets literally every day,, and while it's not anywhere near MY field of study, being around them every day, you tend to pick up a decent bit of knowledge about them, at least enough to later turn your favorite characters into planes and jets for the hell of it.

Tommy would be one of those Concorde planes.
Why? Because I think this looks absolutely ridiculous, but the function of the drooped nose is played entirely seriously in a lot of cases and it just felt very Tommy to me. I DID consider making Bubby a Concorde instead but this feels too silly for him. He would never let himself be a Concorde plane...
Coomer, I'm thinking something ww2 era. Why? Old. Military background.
I don't really have any solid ideas for Bubby, maybe it'll come to me later.
