all things stikbot, all the time!

i dont hve that much about him i just think he's cool as hell. heres him compared to my other stiks so far(kash and lacey), mostly because if i put his fullbody alone it will be incredibly big with how tumblr formats images.

also about kash, im not really satisfied with his current version, mostly because when i made the base i didnt really account for how it would look in more transparent rigs, so theres a lot of clipping between parts as well as the connecting string- not being connected. It would also have taken more parts, the bare base is already 46 accessories, i would need at least six more accessories to complete the string. I'd also need to switch out the head, since i used the default one it gave you when you didnt want a dynamic head on, which had a smaller head inside(this would become revealed once you lower the opacity on the head. This is fine in concept, but also making any changes to the body package breaks the entire rig and offsets every single accessory you have on. theres a solution to that though, if i just exported everything in an accessory combo, copied it, pasted it somewhere else to save it so i could copy the new head ID, then paste it in, then grab the combo again and import it again but im LAZY and i dont want to do that rn

anyway build yap aside,

the orange stikbot's name is Leland, and some interesting things about him is that he's actually 2 inches taller than the average stikbot, which means by the average of 5'0 from my general story he'd be 5'2

i also thought it would be cool for him to have a weapon thats bigger than him, so he has a red laser sword named Paradisio thats 6-7 feet long. It can be hidden when 'sheathed', or the light part blade is just basically turned off for the most part. He doesn't bring it with him most of the time, as he lives in a small town thats relatively peaceful, despite a record of paranormal/weird events.

Because of that, he's a lot more tolerant of weird things happening, as well as being desensitized to forms of destruction and violence in general. in the stikbot world it behaves as more of a clean dystopia, whereas the 'real' world its more spontaneous. He's also in pine ridge, so that effect is higher. This also gives him a really delayed response to danger, and a failure to quickly recognize that he himself may be in danger. Also, exposure to humans is also why he wears clothes and actually accessorizes himself, whereas Kash and Lacey are pretty barebones, they were cityborn in the stikbot world. Kash still lives there, but Lacey is in a different world as of recent, so he got a pickaxe(not depicted)

He wasn't born there, but he is a legal resident of the U.S., where the town is situated in in the first place

I guess he's in a similar situation as Lacey, only much more fortunate, and lived there much longer than Lacey did(They're meant for different games: Leland ended up in pine ridge-small town paranormal- and lived there at least five years, Lacey ended up in remnants- post apocalyptic city- he just ended up there)

hes also up on artfight, go check him out!
