After staying up all night, I wondered what the Wizard at sunrise looks like.

Round 4: VAUGHN (IoH, SI) vs WAYNE (3oT)

[bbbartblog]

I'm starting to have a bit more time to properly focus on drawing again, so I decided to draw this comic as a warm up~

I have another @bokumonoexchange gift, this time for @neur0515! Get you a bf who will pop out from nowhere with a snack after a hard day of farming

Ooohh for the warmup doodles, maybe Tale of Teo Towns? :] Or Island of Happiness/Sunshine Islands!

thank you so much for the suggestion, reese!!

georgia and mikhail are definitely my favorite marriage candidates from tott. and i actually haven't played ioh or si yet, but basing off their events, i think denny and sabrina would be right up my alley!

Reasons Every DS Harvest Moon Game Could Use a Remake

DS/Cute: Collectathons in general have been immensely underserved, and this one is even a life sim with other things to do! Also it’d be nice to have a version of this game that isn’t inclined to delete every NPC from your save file if you look at it funny.

Island of Happiness: But, like, could you imagine if this game had an actually functional control scheme?

Sunshine Islands: Another collectathon, this one not closely related to something that was remade recently. Also has an interesting hidden skill-progression system.

Grand Bazaar: This game is so niche that despite owning a copy I still have to actively remind myself that it’s real. Which is a shame, the bazaar system is fun. I bet a lot of people don’t even know Dirk and Amir debuted here.

Tale of Two Towns: Look, it’s on two systems already. Why not expand that a little more?

I'M KICKING MY LITTLE FEETIES!!

Earlier this year, I commissioned @owls-den to draw my favorite HM/SoS crackship. Vaughn/Gwen was a ship from my old HMML days with @jake-marshall. For a couple of years, the ship was only a tickle at the back of my brain BUT THEN WE STARTED RECONNECTING AND I REALIZED "OH, I STILL LOVE THIS SHIP." Ship aside, I was actually burning out from the game series thanks to my obsessive playing/completion of the FoMT remake before the AWL remake came out. Talking to jake-marshall helped restore that love for the series and I really needed to get back into a healthy relationship with the game(s).

TL;DR Gwen's more violent than him. Vaughn keeps her from doing anything dumb.

Also, if you knew me from the HMML days, no you don't. I'm not the same person I was back then but I hope you're doing good in life.

started playing sunshine islands recently

[toyherb]

very rarely do I draw men, and vaughn is someone I haven't drawn in years. so I'm trying to figure out his face.

[in0-0ni]

This hit me like a truck in a dream last night. I have no context, if I were a better writer I'd write the SICKEST fic of Vaughn surviving working a diner. Alas, this is all I can do hehe
