The Surreal Maelstrom & BLACK LIVES MATTER

isn't jpg, jpeg, pdf, or png

Is a file extension you don't recognise (this one is a visual basic file, used for scripting, but others like exe or bat are used)

has a very low or unexpected file size (this one's is less than 1KB, or 0.001MB, a good reference should be at least 500KB)

First is a screenshot of a different tumblr post and a reblog of it. This transcript is minorly adapted for screenreaders. The original post reads: "being on this site is fucking crazy because u will see a post go around that's a little "too loud" about transfeminism for tumblrs insanely bigoted ass moderation team, and then by the evening u can go look at the same post and everyone on it will have been banned, and the next day a second post will go around pointing out the malicious and completely unreasonable bans that were executed by staff on the previous post and then by THAT evening those users will also have been banned and we're all expected to just sit there and pretend it isnt happening". The reblog reads: "i SERIOUSLY feel like tumblrs built in transfem eating machine has been getting way hungrier recently... like ive literally been on this account for a week and had at least 15 different mutuals get termed in that time. i refresh my dash and see peoples accounts go down in front of my eyes. i keep being like oh jeez i forgot to follow [mutual] on this blog? and it turns out that, no, she just got banned the second i turned my back. im literally seeing blogs get taken down that havent physically been up long enough to have possibly posted anything objectionable. im seeing "reblog to help me find my mutuals" posts going around where the op has already been nuked again. like come on".

Second is a screenshot of an email header. The subject line reads: "Tumblr Account Terminated".

Third is a screenshot of the beginning of a Wikipedia article. It reads: "The Streisand effect describes a situation where an attempt to hide, remove, or censor information results in the unintended consequence of the effort instead increasing public awareness of the information".

I wanted the birds to look like they were actually in the space so first thing after doing the draft was to do a lighting study

after that I covered the walls in letters in lieu of a projector/vr headset bc i have neither of those :) Then i take a picture of the section of wall and superimpose the lineart over top of it so I can pencil in the lines

et voila

Hey ya'll! Apologies for not having a Mystery Skulls Animated update last month, as there was some family related issues to take care of. However, we've got some pretty exciting news in store for this update.

One of our most long standing issues is finally complete! After all this time we can finally say we have finished all of our background art! The monthly image included is one of said finished backgrounds!

For the longest time background art has been something of a thorn in our side, so having that out of the way is a huge source of relief. At this point, we're still plugging away at Post Production and the last remaining special effects, but we're getting closer and closer to that finish line. While we're not quite yet ready to publicly state some sort of expected release date, we think we have a fairly decent idea of when that may be!

- Merch Update -

June 5th, we'll be working with Makeship again! This time around, the Deadbeat plush will be returning so if you missed out on them the first time around, you'll have a second chance. Also, this time they're Glow In The Dark! We'll also be introducing a new stylish Deadbeat T-shirt to go along with it! We'll go into more details when the time comes, so if you're in the market for some Deadbeat goods, keep an eye out.

That's it for this update as things are getting ever so closer to the finish line. As always, thanks to everyone for their support!
