Time for me to move on, I think

So, you may have noticed that this blog has been pretty dead for a while now. And, truth be told, while a good portion of that was initially because of time restraints, most recently it’s because I’ve been pulling away from the fandom more and more. With the rise of people supporting some pretty rotten individuals(not gunna name names, but goodness, there are some pretty terrible people a lot of fans look up to, that honestly probably shouldn’t be), and the equal rise of really petty and antagonistic askers/anons I’ve seen on several other blogs, I’ve sorta lost the drive to continue with this myself. Heck, I’ve all but stopped drawing anything Undertale related at this point. 

And while it is true that I shouldn’t let others change my view of something I enjoy, a large part of why I got into the game/fandom was because of the fan content I saw come out of it. It was the fan works that brought me in in the first place, and to see that all that remains of the fandom is a lot of childish/immature/”savage” people who seem to think being edgy and anti-everything is the smart way to be just makes me sad. I had a lot of hopes that a game about kindness and mercy would bring people together and give back in positives ways. Yet, all I’ve seen from a lot of the major blogs is people spouting their headcanons as facts, getting all pissy over ships/shipping in general, and generally being super negative towards the people that support them. I have seen more than one person actively respond antagonistically to critique and just criticism, and I’ve seen so many people become negative influences on their fan base. 

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen a lot of good in the fandom as well. I’ve seen really great admins/muns of blogs, who are very kind and caring to their fans. People who support their fans in whatever they do, and are genuinely kind. However, as people are moving on to different interests, I’ve noticed that fewer and fewer of those people have stayed behind. And all that has remained as the “peak” of the fandom are the incredibly toxic and disgusting ones. The kind that make jokes specifically to hurt others, and who make disgusting jokes because they think it’s super edgy and cool to do so. The kind that play the victim every time they get any sort of negative review/hate. The kind of people who act all high and mighty when they try to make their content “close to canon”, and look down on AUs and stories that don’t. The kind that clearly don’t care about the message the game they are making content based off of tried to impart. it’s because of these people that I’ve lost any sort of spark for the game. I’ve lost any kind of interest in the content I was planning to make.

And so, after months of thinking on it, I have decided to close the blog up. I dunno if I’ll get around to deleting it or not, tho. I may re-purpose it for something else, who knows? All I do know is that it was fun to draw these characters. I had a lot planned with it, too. I wanted to get into animation to do some of the scenes of the comic, and I wanted to bring in more characters with more lore. No doubt, I would get a lot of people trying to tell me that “This isn’t canon!” as tends to happen when it comes to blogs like these, but I was really into the ideas I had when I had em. Oh well.  C'est la vie.

And, as always, Stay Frosty.

Let’s Talk Hiatus

Hey guys. As you’ve probably noticed, I haven’t really updated this blog in a while.

And there are a few reasons behind this. 

The first bein that I got a new job! :D Unfortunately,because of this, I don’t really have much time to draw. I haven’t drawn anythin in about two weeks now. Just busy at work, and when I get home, I’m too tired to do anythin beyond watch videos on YouTube or play games ^^

The second bein that I haven’t been all that invested in the blog for a while.  While I still love Undertale, and still want to make content for it, and STILL love my chelds, I haven’t really been in the mood to draw them. Which sucks, because I really want to try and get my style more defined with them, and with this blog. Because I feel like a few designs could still use some work(mostly Chara’s)

And lastly because(and this is probably due to a combo of the first two) there hasn’t been much interaction with the blog. I’ve gotten a few asks in the past, but I’m honestly not sure how to answer a lot of them. And the ones I sort of know what to do with, don’t really fit the feel/theme of the blog anymore. 

So yeah, while I get settled in at work(and work on not bein as sore as i am when I get home each mornin), the blog will be on hiatus. Hopefully not for long, but at least long enough for me to get things in order.

The new style looks amazing, but it's kind strange, why'd you choose it? (This isn't meant to sound rude)

Thank you very much for askin, yo! And don’t worry, I didn’t take it as rude. :D

I chose the style for a number of reasons, actually. Not only is it much easier for me to draw in, it’s also a style that I always seem to find myself gravitatin to. I love art styles that have characters with odd proportions and thin-lookin limbs. I’ve always taken inspiration from more gothic art styles like Johnen’s style, and the style of Don’t Starve. ^u^This style is still a heavy work in progress, but I’m doin what I can with it, and seein where it will take me. ouo

*UPDATED BECAUSE I REALIZED THEIR DIALOGUE WAS MESSED UP*

*Ride of the Valkyries is probably my all time favorite. Wagner was a-

*DUDE! That song is awesome!

*O-oh, Frisk, you know of it?

*Heck yeah I do! It’s a beautiful piece about the aftermath of war, and the bringing of the souls of the dead to Valhalla. It’s awesome!

*I- that was well said, dear~

“*Uhhh... Next question please!”

[askfriskthedj]

“*They just love those bass drops. What can I say?”

[askfriskthedj]

Sorry that I haven’t posted anything on here lately. Things have been super busy lately, and I haven’t really been in the mood to draw. I did read your guys’ asks, and I will reply to some of them when I get back into the groove, but right now I dunno when that’ll be. So again, my apologies. ^^

[askfriskthedj]

IF you guys wanna send in asks that’d be super helpful. I want to draw some more responses, but atm I don’t have many ideas. ^^

A couple of drawins of the gang in this new style I’m workin on. I REALLY like how these came out. Especially Grooves. He looks awesome =u=

[askfriskthedj]

So, I’ve been toyin around with the idea of a new style for DJ/MusicTale. What do you guys think? I’ve always sorta loved the kind of art styles that have really exaggerated features to them. Like clothes that are fit in some areas, but really large in others. And body parts bein exaggerated as well, with thin arms, but huge hands and fit and such. ^u^

[askfriskthedj]

If ya want to, I'd love to see ya draw one of my MusicTale peeps ouo

Send a request!

This was pretty cool to do, thanks for the request!
