So I ended up getting dragged to mcm by mates, was aight but my feet are murder
Within 10 seconds of leaving the house in the pouring rain and getting in a mates car I discovered my actual con badge had disappeared
I just expected that when I lent over to do my shoes up inside it had fallen out so I wasnt too fussed, and it gave me a reason to draw my own badge this year.
And I wasted this opportunity for laughs, when we pulled into a mcdonalds on the outskirts of london I got my pad out, half emptied my hip flask and uh
Couldnt think of anything worth drawing
So I wrote a stupid ass message on it (the first version included my drinking in the mcdonalds and we didnt wanna risk getting kicked out for admitting to turning up (potentially) drunk
Then by the time I decided I was gonna draw millweave I drew his head then we had to leave
Later in the line I realised I took my flask in with me (was gonna leave it in the car) and in a moment of brilliance and dumbfuckery I emptied all of it into a bottle of sparkling water and fucking downed it
And they didnt even check my bag hard enough to find the flask to begin with.
A guy stopped me to read my tag and got a laugh out of it so it was all worth it
I added to the picture anytime I had an opportunity, but in the end I never got past the basic body and just opted to finish it later
I commissioned someone for a cute picture of Brittlebee aswell for £15, wouldve gotten one of my characters but I definitely don't have any actual refs of my characters yet (in the new style atleast)
After getting dumped off and joking about having to hunt for my con badge in an alleyway
Atleast it was laminated.
I woke up actually wanting to draw stuff, so I finished the millweave in the picture, then realising I had a shitload of space and I added moonie for laughs
But then realised there was space for a third character to the left, and I hadnt changed a character to go there
Then I decided sod it and followed the inspiration trail
And I drew Tourniquet in the new style!
Theyve still got the puffy hair, and the hat m needle n shit
But instead of having a big thread spindle on the back for the needle it now feeds off a wooly jumper theyre wearing, no idea what anyone else thinks but I thought it was neat
Shes now got dungarees over said wooly jumper, cos they all do now and its got a bandolier of smaller reels of thread on it
Shes got a Raggedy Ann nose aswell, cos the triangle nose fit better than anything else I could come up with
So with 3 characters who could actually fill the space I finally finished it, way too late for the con but heck, its something decent I guess
Thus concludes the huge text wall for this Sunday
Hope its not too terrible lmao
