Guys, PLEASE watch the gaming episodes. Not only are they very entertaining, but they also give the VAs a much needed break from the near-constant lore episodes. Even just putting it on mute in another tab helps

Also, leave comments saying you want more games, even on the lore vids (especially on the lore vids tbh)! Besides views, comments are the best way for the higher ups to know what the viewers want to see, so don't be afraid to make some noise.

(And it HAS to be YouTube comments. The higher ups don't pay attention to the SBS discord or social media posts)

Hi, Im a digital artist and wanted to ask permission if I could redraw some of your thumbnil art as long as I give you credit!!

Go ahead!

How do you think the sun and moon show would have turned out if Sun and Moon had actually fused with Lunar and Eclipse? Do you think Dazzle would still end up getting adopted into the celestial family? If so, who do you think she would get adopted by?

- No KC, because Lumos' creation got rid of the kill code

- This also means there's no reason for New Moon/Nexus to exist either, so he also never happens

- V2 Eclipse is still a thing, and he still starts off in Bloodmoon's head. There's no team up with KC however, so he has to figure out another way to regain a body. I have no idea how that whole arc would go, honestly

- I'm not sure if they'd ever meet Solar or not, since Moon only found that dimension to help Lunar with his Eclipse trauma. I don't know if Lumos would still have that struggle. Maybe he's troubled by Lunar's memories of Eclipse, plus his own curiosity as to whether a good Eclipse exists or not, and that leads him to finding/visiting Solar's dimension? Idk

- Solis and Lumos' relationship is very.... awkward at first, to put it lightly. While Lumos' creation went smoothly due to both parties agreeing to do it, Solis' was.... not so much. His whole existence was an accident bc Sun messed up the spell to get rid of Eclipse. As a result, he came out a lot more unstable/volatile personality wise. Not quite as bad as the actual episode where Sun and Eclipse merged, but compared to Lumos, let's just say he had a much harder time coming to terms with his existence/identity

- Like Sun, Solis kills og Bloodmoon with one of the barrels. Unlike Sun, he has way less remorse about it. Mainly bc he already knows BM was behind July 16th + having V1 Eclipse's own feelings about them. He still doesn't tell Lumos however, because heaven forbid these morons communicate with each other

- Lunar doesn't die bc you can't kill someone who doesn't exist lol, meaning nobody gets star power and the Astrals have no reason to go to Earth

- Dark Sun likely wouldn't take an interest in this dimension, since his plan needs a Sun to work, which Solis isn't. Or at least, not fully?? Idk

- I have no clue how Ruin's whole thing would play out asdsfghaj. His plan either works like in the original, or he gets stopped in time.... which would lead to the family having to face off against the Creator Council. Uh-oh (maybe it leads to them teaming up with Ruin? Idk)

- If his plan does work and Solar dies, then they'd just... bring him back? Like, if Solis and/or Lumos find out V3 Eclipse (assuming he's still a thing) knows how to bring him back, they'd be willing to team up with him. Idk it wouldn't be super eventful lol

- Speaking of Eclipse, no deal with Dark Sun, or Astrals around, means he doesn't have to move dimensions (unless he wants to, anyway)

- Solis is the one who adopts Dazzle

Hey! I’ve been a fan of your art for a long time now, especially the more-or-less recent SAMS thumbnails, and I had a question art-related:

So I’ve been doing digital art for about 3 and a half years now, and no matter what I still struggle with 2 things: line shading(where you put the shading over the line art and blend it in to look like the line art) or just good shading in general-and 2: atmospheres, specifically more seriously toned atmospheres-

So I wondered if you had any tips on how to get a better grasp at it? (I have a ref of some of my newer art projects as an example)

I'm not really sure what line shading is (at least, not in the way you describe it), and I don't think I do that with my line art anyway, so I can't help you there

As for shading, knowing where your light source is is very important. I'm not at all an expert in knowing where to place the shadows and highlights, but try to think of whatever you're drawing as a 3D object and go, "how would the light interact with this?"

When it comes to atmosphere, it depends on the emotion you want to convey. Bright colors tend to make things look more intense, which can be used to show heightened emotions like fear and rage. Darker and paler colors can give off feelings of sadness, loneliness, etc. Of course, these rules aren't set in stone, so feel free to experiment

Shading also plays a big role in this. The light shining on a character and/or the way they're covered in shadow can heavily impact how the scene feels. There's also composition, but that's an entirely different beast

Sorry if this didn't help. I'm not very good at explaining this stuff asdfghj. I'd say look up pieces of art that manage to capture atmosphere the same way you want to, and study it to see what those artists did, and how you can incorporate it into your work

Fun fact: That bell Killer Sun is wearing? He took it from his Moon's hat as a trophy 😊

[meagancandraw]

Actually the July 16th one bothers me a lot because I should've drawn Evelyn the same way the other FNAF ghosts look, with the crying black eyes

Like this

What is your favorite thumbnail you did?

My is either

This one:

Or this one:

I have several

You unfortunately get crusty jpeg versions bc I'm not allowed to share the original files :(

[meagancandraw]

What character do you have the hardest time drawing?

Nexus' current form, by a long shot 💀

I'll throw Taurus up there too, just because his proportions and muscles are more realistic compared to everyone else

[meagancandraw]

What is your favorite character to draw? (Whether it be in tsams thumbnails, or other media outside of it)

Do you have a personal favorite Tsams character? Or do you for the most part just draw thumbnails for the show?

Do you have a favorite tsbs villain?

I really like when I get to draw Ruin! I wanna start drawing him outside of thumbnails lol. I also have fun drawing Dark Sun too

My two personal favorites are Sun and Ruin, though Eclipse is right behind them! As for favorite villains, my current is Dark Sun. Bro just wants to be left alone, and live his best life with his Sun therapy circle or whatever. Idk I think it's kind of funny lol

[meagancandraw]

I love your art and it looks amazing!

Thank you!!!

[meagancandraw]

What is your favorite thumbnails for Tsams? if you don't mind me asking

Right here!

[meagancandraw]

Eclipse nation, how we feeling?

[meagancandraw]

Hey! This isn't a question, but I just wanted to stop by and say I love your art! So, here! Have this!

I hope you have a great day/night!

Ahhh thank you! You too! ^_^

[meagancandraw]

If you're planning on doing the FULL song, definitely take your time!

I'll be honest, I don't even have most of it planned out yet lol. I'm off work tomorrow, though, which should hopefully be more than enough time to do so

But yeah, between my irl job, thumbnails, and other projects I'm working on, it'll be a while before the final version is finished

[meagancandraw]

Because I've been emotionally destroyed by this cover Davis did

This is a VERY ROUGH WIP, and I don't when/if I'll finish it (I'm planning to do the full song)

[meagancandraw]

I BEG OF YOU!!

Please draw a Sagittarius celestial if you haven't already!

Also I love your art and thumbnails ❤️❤️

🔥🔥

👄

Thank you, but I don't do requests! 😅
