i still cannot get over The Twins like.
imagine.
you have another version of you out there arguably living a life just as difficult as yours, if not more, that you can talk to at literally Any Time! and they're You so you basically already have half a convo down anytime you decide to pop on over via a portal
1610 and 42 stepping out of their respective portals side-by-side just to stroll out of an alleyway like nothin happened just going:
1610: LOUD SIGH
42: rough day too huh?
1610, brushing debris off of his shoulder: yeeep. another run-in with the rhino. again.
42: you didn't lock his dumb ass up like, last month? how'd he get out?
1610: don't know, don't care. so done with this week, i just wanna... i dunno. hibernate til spring 😮💨
42: man, what a mood.
1610: what happened to you? you look like you had a rougher day than me!
42, covered in visible bruises and cuts along with his bandages: mannnn... rougher week more like. well... rougher life. but. anyways.
they both nod at each other in Understanding

oh my Lorddd what the fuck. gonna throw up rn this actually made me emotional.
context is that this new scene (?) in reload involves an internship thing and ryoji and junpei (love their friendship btw.) were supposed to work together on it but he hadn't shown up for Several Days until that one. when he does get to talk to him ryoji's clearly aware somethings up (he doesn't know about chidori but.) and its like. man. rhe way he describes it in that image makes me sick in the head!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Final refs incoming! Hope you enjoy big ol' beefcakes because we got three! :D It took me over a month to finish the Gol3ms.
I decided to give them a blue tint to envoke a sense of partial decomp, as these two are made from the flesh of various grunts. Plus we do not know how fresh the corpses used were, or if they were preserved at all. These designs are based on previous sketches and designs I had made for them. :)
When making this big fellow, I decided I had to give him even more muscle groups than others, due to sheer size. Especially on the legs and upper arms.
This entire project was fun and a good excercise for my anatomy skills and research into muscle groups.
:) Who knows, may do someone else.
Time will tell ;)

Omg Krystal, these are amazing! :D Church and Jorge are looking good; I love how you detailed their stitches and included a more "deathly" looking skin tone to show their G03LM traits. Plus, I also really like how you used the metal plates from their original designs here, it fits really nicely. (Also, this is more minor, but Church's hair is A++, I love the longer back to it lol.)
The sketches are also adorable, as always. I literally caught myself thinking "Haha those rascals :)" unironically, so you definitely characterized them very accurately lmao.
Finally, we got the best boy Torture! First off, I can see how much detail you put in with his anatomy, and given his status as a MAG, it makes sense. The skin that grunts have also is also quite stiff, so the fact that his muscular structure is so visible can be attributed to that as well. (It's likely even more accentuated by it being like Kevlar. Which I'd imagine is also pretty painful, thanks AAHW.) Also, as someone who struggles with drawing anatomy, I really appreciate the work that you put in to do it so accurately here. The attention to detail is always spectacular, but this is something else haha. <3
Of course, we have to mention the little doodles too, and my favorite is definitely the one of the engineer and agent telling him about the Player. There's just something a bit comical about how far Torture has to stoop down just to listen to them, but I also really like how it emphasizes the differences between him and normal-sized grunts. I also find the interactions you drew of him actually with the Player really cute; he's just sort of a big cat around them, and I love how soft he is shown as being towards him. These were just great, and I love them very much. Thank you!! ( ´ ∀ `)ノ~ ♡♡♡

health tip gamers... if your pain relievers start taking effect while you have an injury where you should stay still for it to heal and not feel pain... DO NOT START MOVING LIKE YOU'RE FINE JUST BECAUSE YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE FINE DUE TO PAIN RELIEVERS YOU GON REGRET IT THE PAIN IS GON KICK YOU AGAIN !!! learned the hard way😢
ive just spent the last two days moving around feeling all confident like "haha look at this they said it would take weeks for my neck and upper spine to heal im all fine and dandy" and every single time i was inmediately in pain again 💀 i just really want to stop rotting in my bed but i cant😢😢

It worries me slightly because ibuprofen is harsh on your stomach but I just have a rule to never take it on an empty stomach. Which sucks in the morning because it means I have to last like two hours with no painkillers and no food when I get up.

The thing about apples that makes me feel so crazy is that they’re such a living entity…what I mean by this is that with so many fruits and vegetables you’re able to save seeds theoretically indefinitely, obviously not til the end of time but for thousands of years. But with apple varieties, because they don’t grow true to seed (meaning that planting 1000 apple seeds from the same tree will yield you 1000 different results, perhaps only a few of them pleasant to eat) you must graft a scion (a branch off a grown tree in the desired variety) to get the type of apple you want. Which means for there to be, say, Granny Smith apples, there must be a living breathing Granny Smith tree alive from which to take a branch…seeds will do nothing. It’s just such a profoundly impermanent situation and there’s something poetic there for me
