Tbh I feel like my core artstyle has stayed the same, things just look a lot cleaner and more proportional now.

It's cool to see my progress over the years!

01 appreciation post from The Commune's recent comic updates <3

(01 is nonbinary and uses they/them!)

I'm really happy with how much my art has improved!!! 01 looks gorgeous in all these panels, I love them sm :)

Letting these two relax cos they need it atp

The Commune Squid Game AU because I finished season 2 recently. (The first two images are traced/drawn on top of the show!)

They fit into this AU so seamlessly LMAO

I gotta make more AUs for The Commune, it's way too fun

Anopheles after a long day of traumatising his cultists:

[smokesalty]

24 when a literal child doesn't do hard labour to appease a cult leader:

Tbf 24 was taken into the cult when he was like 12. And he has to do a lot more to earn affection but still HE IS BEEFING WITH A CHILD.

POV: Anopheles has 1 millisecond of screentime (patreon edition)

My ibis paint gallery does not disappoint

Progress on the 01 character rig!

LIKE I AM SO FUCKING EXCITED LIKE YES THAT IS 01!! When I finally have everything set up for animation it's gonna look amazing!

Like they are alive and moving!!

Currently just texturing, still need to set up controllers and switches. Also need to implement face controls and the lot. Still need to model the inside of the mouth and other stuff.

A lot of work but so worth it!!!

[smokesalty]

Started texturing my 01 model! Still bald for now but now they have eyebrows. Joyous. It's so fucking cool to look at my model and go omg!!! That really is 01!!!

Eventually I'm gonna be able to animate with this model ARGHH exciting! I'm already planning what I wanna animate.

Writing and art is not a hobby it is a NEED

writing isnt even like a hobby to me anymore its just that theres images trapped in my head and if i dont get them out fast enough they start rotting in there and stinking up the place

[smokesalty]

Even more The Commune memes I have buried in my camera roll

[smokesalty]

Old ass memes I made for The Commune because I still think they're funny

[smokesalty]

Biblically accurate 24 (Zade from H2O, aka peak Australian television)

[smokesalty]

Teaser panels....

Argh this scene is really good for showing their dynamic and conflicts they both have as people within the cult. They both understand each other but don't agree on everything either.

Also hurt comfort but not too comforting but yes? At the same time??

The Commune official trailer!

Anopheles voiced by Domingo Castillo (absolutely NAILED his character)
