Some quick sketches

Wish i had more free time((

Got a bit carried away with a card drafts. The idea with tarot was hunting me for a while. The thing is fitting with Veronica's character pretty good by me. I think she could have an incomplete deck (nobody knows that it's not full), but she would have used it more pragmatically. Like not in a usual magic-prediction way, but more like in giving-people-hope way. And that's why there would be no cards with negative meaning in it.

Really enjoyed the game REPLACED, so mandatory fan art time! This is the protagonist, Reach. I love squinting at sprites and heavily stylized art to try and piece together character designs, it's one of the greatest joys of indie game fan art. Chose to interpret some of the shading on the promotional art as a scar because scars are cool and I like drawing them.

Also, you give me a story about an artificial intelligence that somehow finds itself in a human body and I give them the quintessential human experience: a stomach ache.

Big fan of the idea of a nigh-super soldier getting taken out by stomach issues of all things. Food poisoning spares no man.

Something I notice is, when men discuss the manosphere, they either centre the reason boys fall down that pipeline on some inner weakness or defectiveness of the boy, ie. "they're just autistic weirdos who want rules for women because they can't get their dick wet," or they centre the reason on women, "feminism had made women too woke, mean and impossible to socialise with."

What I noticed while working is that every single little Tate goblin I had to work with had conservative parents, and I have never once seen that aspect of all this discussed. Boys will reflect the social norms they are raised in within their household. The biggest preventative for manosphere bullshit I saw in the boys I worked with was a dad who isn't a fuckwit and a household that isn't LARPing the 1960s.
