swiggity swooty

I’m finally feeling confident enough to open up commissions!

I’m up for doing half body portraits or heads of your characters.

Rules:

No NSFW.

One character per portrait.

(Not to ignore Sombra being there; I’m fucking thrilled Reaper’s new star student is tailing his old one).

But. Let’s just talk about Jesse. Obviously we’re getting the most hamfisted visual cue imaginable that McCree is sad. The dude’s alone in a bar on Christmas, black-out drunk. Not generally how people spend their holiday.

Fanon has collectively painted McCree as an easy-going doofus, but if you think about it he has to be one of the most miserable, down-trodden heroes in the Overwatch setting. By the age of eighteen all of his major life choices were decided for him. From his conscription to just a few years before Overwatch collapsed his entire existence was Blackwatch. In ten+ years he didn’t venture beyond that. Being a Blackwatch agent was all he ever amounted to, and it was the only good he’d ever accomplished. It was his home and his family. It was the cornerstone of his entire identity. Through it, he thought he’d made up for the mistakes of his adolescence.

Turns out that even his “redemption” was rotten. Anything positive he ever did was washed under the tidal wave of public condemnation for all the wrongs, the manipulations, and the secrets. He can’t even look back on the years he spent atoning with Overwatch and feel proud of it, because everywhere he goes the debate still is whether or not the U.N.’s peacekeeping force was ever anything but a means for the corrupt to hold power. If they’re right, what is Jesse McCree but a man who’s never done anything but fire his gun for the bad guys?

The worst part is McCree is stuck in purgatory. Responsibly, he can’t answer Winston’s recall. This new incarnation of Overwatch is going to have a hard enough time overcoming global criticism and the failures of their predecessors – failings like those of McCree himself. If they want to win back public support then they can’t afford to be taking in wanted fugitives, least of all the former protege of Gabriel Reyes. The best thing McCree can do for them is stay the fuck away. In the meantime he’s got nothing going on save for thwarting occasional robberies and the odd train rescue here and there. He’s got no one he can count on without dragging them into his troubles with the law. There’s nowhere for him to rest his head. He doesn’t even have an identity beyond a “not good, not bad” mercenary who’s simply adrift. 

THE MCHANZO HALLOWEEN GIVEAWAY

In honor of Halloween and the upcoming Halloween gear Blizzard will be launching for Overwatch, we here at the McHanzo blog have decided to do a mini-giveaway (before we announce our much larger giveaway in the near future). Below are the rules and prizes at stake:

RULES

Begins on October 6th and ends October 12th.

1 like = 1 entry // 1 reblog = 1 entry

You may reblog this as many times as you’d like, but Tumblr only allows you to like the post once.

You do not have to be following the blog, mostly because I know folks can just unfollow once the giveaway is over (if we made following us mandatory). Only follow if you really want to.

You must be a McHanzo shipper (or at least ship them to a certain extent).

You can get credits for any system (PC, Xbox One, PS4). 

PRIZES

1st Place – $10 Credit (11 Loot Boxes)

2nd Place – $5 Credit (5 Loot Boxes)

3rd Place – $2 Credit (2 Loot Boxes)

Another Hallows End challenge thing, and I’ll be making the actual large versions of these available on Patreon!

I’m sorry Kalec, I really tried to take you seriously. 

Okay seriously, I know people started to hate Thrall because of how much Metzen was pushing him for a good long while now, making him the World Shaman and all that.  I totally get it, I felt annoyed by it too, but at the least I didn’t have some condescending floating asshole sucking his metaphorical dick.

“stares at Xe’ra”

Seriously, whoever has been preparing to take over for Metzen this last year must have the biggest fucking stiffy for Illidan.  Not only have I had to see people talk him up every which way (even Altruius, the anti-illidan, is now all “Glory to Illidan!”) but then I have to go through a long quest chain talking up all his worst traits and making them out like the best traits ever, and some prophecy that he will be some light warrior demon hybrid whatever. Okay sure, fine…

Then that floating butt plug has the audacity to tell me that it’s MY fault for killing Illidan in BC and fucking everything up, and that saving Illidan is MY redemption to make up for me being corrupted by hate for him.  Fuck you, Xe’ra, I did half that shit for your damn Naaru in the first place, and you have the giant drooping space balls to say I am the bad guy that needs to atone for stopping a mass murderer that was ripping out peoples souls?

I already sort of spoiled it above, but intense spoilers below. You keep reading at your own risk.  Skip this over if you don’t want to see it!

If you did Black Temple.

I wept when I touched your consciousness in the Great Dark, mortal. For I saw his fall, and I saw you, your shadow casting a dark pall over his body. I felt hatred in your heart as it corrupted your mind. It was not Light’s Heart, but you, that needed preparation. Now you know truth. Are you prepared to do what must be done to save your world and all others? When the time is right, I will call upon you to begin the hunt for Illidan’s soul. His rebirth will be the story of your redemption.

If you didn’t do Black Temple.

In the end, the denizens of Azeroth and Outland came to exact their vengeance upon Illidan.  Though you did not strike the blow against him, you were complicit in his fall.

I showed you Illidan’s life so that you would understand why he fought and made the choices he made.  Yours was the vessel that needed preparation.

If the hatred and doubt in your heart has subsided, take you place at the side of the Light.  Soon I will call upon you as we begin the hunt for Illidan’s soul.

What makes the matters worst, is the vision of Illidan dying at the Black Temple is called “Experiance True Betrayal”.  He didn’t betray us.  WE BETRAYED HIM!
