Iām al! Iām a self-taught digital artist (and occasional animator) who is just here for the ride :)
āļø any pronouns! I am unlabeled and on the aroace spectrum :)
āļø multi-fandom - right now youāll see a lot of Hermitcraft/Life Series/Traffic SMP content as well as other mcyt content, video game things, and just whatever Iām hyperfixating on at the time lol
āļø I also love creating stories and have whole worlds of OCās! I have a less developed world for my persona āAlā (āaLā not āaiā lol) as well as a more developed horror-ish story I call āScopophobia.ā youāll probably see art for those as well :)
āļø I have a youtube channel! I mostly post silly little fan animations as well as some OC content :)
Please keep this a safe space for everyone! Be kind and respectful, thank you šš

Iām a bit late, but a few weeks ago someone in my comments mentioned that Skizz saw one of my animatics from Youtube (thanks Sirnoodlehat!)āand it took me a second to find the clip since I havenāt been keeping up with his streams, but lo and behold he said he loved it! That really made my day to see him and chat talking about my art. Thanks to you all for the lovely support that made that possible! š (Link to the clips under cut)
First clip from Skizzās stream posted to his VODs channel on December 19, around 00:02:28

Hey Starlings! Happy holidays to those celebrating!
Iāve been much busier this season than I had anticipated, so I appreciate everyoneās patience with my lack of uploads! That being said, the Nice Life special was an absolute blast to watch in my free time and I loved everyoneās festive skins so muchāso, using this lovely template designed by Maruu, I did a drawing of my designs for them all in their holiday outfits. This was super fun to do, and Iāll be honest, I missed being able to draw as much!
That being said, I hope you all are doing well! Stay hydrated and stay safe everyone, and have a great week!
Ah! Itās September already and Past Life has ended! (and Hermitcraft 10 is ending soon?? agh Iām so behind!)
This past month or so went by so fast! I seriously loved the ending of Past Life and Iād love to draw something for it, but I got super busy with school and have barely been able to draw, well, anything! Art block kinda sucks š«¤
That being said, Iāll probably be taking a break from social media for a bit to focus on IRL things. Not sure exactly how long thatāll beāhopefully not too long lolābut it just means I wonāt be uploading videos/artwork that frequentlyāyou know, pretty much what Iāve already been doing /silly
Of course Iāll still try to draw when I have the time/energy! That one Past Life animatic is getting done⦠slowly but surely⦠And Iād like to maybe make a post or video about redesigning my banner if I get around to it š
Thanks for being patient! Be safe and stay hydrated, Starlings! I hope you have a great day :)
I havenāt been able to draw as much as Iād like to lately but when I saw these amazing Past Life skins by @commonantics I just had to draw something inspired by it! It was fun playing around with my rendering style and poses to make this look almost like a funky album cover? Iām not sure what entirely I was going for but I like how it turned out in the end!
Once again, credit for these absolutely lovely designs goes to Muggse!
Version of the art without text is under the cut.
also yes iām aware that joelās horns are meant to be red shush /j

It was so cute how excited Tango was about her skin, especially when everyone else was ragging on it. And it looked like a ghast to me. With the happy ghast lore I thought ghastborn probably need goggles to protect their sensitive eyes.
Congrats to Lizzie and Joel on the new kiddo! Itās so heartwarming to see the parents of MCYT start a new chapter in their lives! Wishing Joel, Lizzie, and SmallishLady a wonderful journey together š
bestie i just started scrolling ur blog from the krobus art and you are amount me wanna watch hermitcraft. like my friend has been bullying me abt this for years but i still never have. where should i start š
seriously your art is SO GOOD itās like. me fr. and i will munch on it in my dreams. itās awesome as anything ever
Oh wow thank you so much!! Thatās so sweet aaagh :D
And ooh boy, Hermitcraft! Thereās a ton of places to start if youāre wanting to get into watching it, so it can be kinda overwhelming lol. But probably the best place to start is the Hermitcraft Recap channelāthey do weekly summaries of any episodes that come out which can make getting into watching Hermitcraft a lot easier!
If you're interested in watching individual membersāthere have been many members over the 10 seasons there's been so far (s10 is still ongoing). There really isnāt any major connections between each season, so really you could pick any season and POV and it would probably be just fine. I myself have only really been watching since season 8, so I donāt know about earlier seasons, but if you wanna start with the current season I have some recommendations! (under the cut because I talk a lot lol, summary at the end)
Season 10 currently has 25 active members (you can find all membersā socials on hermitcraft.com!) and I actively watch nine of them: BdoubleO, Cubfan, GeminiTay, Grian, JoeHills, Mumbo Jumbo, Scar, Joel (Smallishbeans), and TangoTek (but that many can get overwhelming lol! Lots of people just watch 1-2 regularly). Which ones you watch really depends on a lot of things, so Iāve tried to separate them into categories to make it easier:
Some āHermitsā tend to interact with others more often, which can be great if youāre new. For this Iād recommend people like Xisuma (the serverās admin), Skizz (heās just really social lol), and Grian, specifically Grianās long video he did earlier this season where most Hermits gave him a tour of their base. Skipping to an individual tour could be helpful if youāre new and want a summary of that Hermitās experience for the first several months of the season.
Not sure how familiar you are with Minecraft in general, but there are loosely two āgenresā of MCYTāers (at least in Hermitcraft): Redstoners and builders.
For the more technical Hermits (the redstone nerds) Iād suggest Tango and Mumbo, though I know others like Doc, Impulse, and Xisuma are great too
For Hermits that focus more on the building/creative aspects, Iād suggest Bdubs, Scar and Joel (though this oneās hard to recommend a specific person because they all have such unique building styles!)
**Of course itās not always black and whiteāa lot of them focus on both (or neither), too. These are just starting points if you have a preference :D**
If you like a lot of frequent uploads on Youtube, Iād suggest Cub and Joe. This season they both have had insanely fast upload schedules for Minecraft Youtubers lol (70-80+ episodes so far!) and I find their videos tend to be a bit chiller and slower-paced because of it. (XbCrafted also seems to upload very frequently, tho Iām not as familiar with his content.) But most of the other Hermits have fewer overall episodesāin the 30ā50ās range for most at this point in the seasonāwhich is probably much more manageable if youāre just starting out!
Some Hermits do live streams as well! (They stream both Hermitcraft and other games, depending on the streamer) I personally love the āG.I.G.G.S. crewā: Grian (he joins streams, but doesnāt normally livestream his POV), Impulse, Gem, (Goodtimeswith)Scar, and Skizz. They often play games together and it makes for some great longer-form contentātheir Twitch channels (and other Hermits that stream) can be found on hermitcraft.com and Iāve also linked their VOD channels. That being said, a lot of Hermits stream, Iād totally recommend checking out a bunch of different streams if thatās something that interests ya :D
Overall, my personal favorites to watch are Mumbo and Joel.
Mumbo was the first Hermit I was introduced toāback in 2021 during Season 8ābut this season especially he has been one of my favorites. He has such a unique editing style, and this season heās been incorporating more creative aspects (more building, storytelling, and even drawings!) to his videos, as opposed to mainly redstone like heās done in the past.
Joel is actually one of the two Hermits that only just joined at the start of this season (the other being Skizz), but Iāve found already that heās become a common favorite in the community. Heās insanely good at building, makes for lots of fun interactions with other Hermits, and his editing style is just hilarious!
These are just a few starting points for , thereās obviously a lot more than just these few categoriesāeach Hermit is their own unique individual, Iād recommend watching all of their videos if I could but thatās not really possible lolāand things get even more complicated when you factor in the overlap the community has with others, like Empires SMP and the Life Series. Idk, hopefully this helps and isnāt too confusing :ā)
Of course, at the end of the day, thereās no right or wrong way to get into the Hermitcraft fandom, just as long as youāre having fun. This is a crazy community of over 13 years, but itās made a special home in my heart (as you can probably tell lol). If any of this sounds at all interesting to you (and to anyone who sees this and is new!) then yay! Welcome to the Hermitcraft community :)
TL;DR: Thereās a lot of ways to get into Hermitcraft, but starting with the Hermitcraft Recap channel is useful. My personal favorite Hermits are Mumbo and Joel but at the end of the day whatever you like is best for you :)
So Iāve kinda been getting into Stardew Valley lately and, well. āØKrobusāØ. My new obsession lol
I found out about this little guy and I am now convinced that heās probably the best video game character ever pretty much. A little adorable shadow that is super polite and sweet and adorable that you can hug and be platonic partners?? HECK YEAH. (And, yāknow, he happens to kinda look like my OC. Bonus points, if you ask me.)
So yeah. Enjoy this little doodle (cough while I procrastinate all my other tasks cough)
