THEY’RE FINALLY HERE‼️ Meet Inkblot (Blot for short), the dad of all time, the saddest not-sad guy there is, and depending on how you feel about their unrelenting support of the Beings Who Watch, the most infuriating person alive !!

I resisted the urge to make 1632 more pj designs instead to show y’all the other most important character to the story, the very plot hinges on their actions (or lackthereof)

Some more ramblings and bonus art under the cut 😋 (Credit to Comyet for og Ink :D)

- Blot is a bit (A LOT) of a workaholic, needing to be busy and having something to do at all times, and considering the fact that he kinda isolated himself from everyone, his job was the only thing he’s had to stay active for a while (until he found PJ that is)

- He is 1 singular inch taller than canon Ink, just because

- Neither of his eyelights are able to turn blue 💙 (he also cannot cry, not normally at least)

- Currently, he isn’t actually called Blot in-universe by anyone, it was a nickname suggested by my friend (hi Shay!!!) in a discord server that has so many Ink variants we needed to differentiate. It does very well have a place in the lore tho, and for that reason I wouldn’t actually recommend calling him Blot to his face ;D

- Even with his years-long halt in socializing, Blot is as energized as ever with all characters he does end up interacting with, his behavior dips into unsettling territory sometimes tho. He’s just a really positive guy nothing to worry about

Now, for the art I’ve cooked up for him overtime before getting to this reference, including an old reference lmao

(yeah he essentially stayed the exact same I’m just not very happy with the old drawing anymore, he needed to look shorter okay)

Sighh I love him so much I hope he doesn’t die <33

For a guy who never really shows interest in anyone Vetinari sure gets shipped with a lot of people huh!

Hello!! I love ur art, very yummy >:D. I saw that you're still taking requests, and if you haven't already, could you draw like a Splatoon Malleus or Riddle? Splatoon and Twst are two of my fave games. But if you alrdy have a ton of requests than feel free to ignore mine, I don't wanna pressure you or anything ^^. I hope that you have a wonderful week because you're a wonderful person (ﾉ^ヮ^)ﾉ₊˚⊹✩´-

graahhh thank u so much!!! ;; since i have a splatoon + twst side thing (twisted inkblot) i do every now n then, i might fool around w/ these designs n solidify em later on o(￣▽￣)ｄ so here's inkling riddle & octoling malleus!! 🦑🐙

i like to imagine inkling riddle has the big forehead thing like pearl and frye- and for malleus, i was gonna make him a splatoonified sea dragon (& have the draconia family be a line of sea dragons)... i'll play around with that concept too, but for now i offer Octo Mal

Creators I love you but it's time to wake up

Among rumors about our tumblr user data being sold off to Midjourney/Generative AI, recent Extremely transphobic events (that have been ongoing) coming to a head, another extremely concerning internet censorship bill being pushed in upper levels of government, and a general air of frustration over how the site belongs to and is operated by perhaps the second stupidest CEO (second only to twitters own) of our age, I'm very done with the last few vestiges of what the old internet held for artists.

And if you're reading this, you probably are too.

I know we're tired. We are all tired. It is not always viable to pack up shop and move, again and again and again.

From tumblr to twitter to anywhere else we've ever grown up posting, things no longer work. Our audiences are kneecapped by aggressive and hostile algorithms, our reach is abysmal - if we aren't shadow-banned or silenced for one (transphobic) reason or another, we're thrust into an ever growing pit of hostility where the only thing that drives clicks is fighting and contention.

We're tired. We're so fucking tired. We aren't businesses, we aren't content mills, we cannot keep this pace that modern social media has set for us, to wring every ounce of creativity out of us to profit from and leave us rotting.

The key to staying afloat here, and I cannot stress this enough, is to stay connected to your peers.

Pack up and move as units if you must. Exodus from the sites that are killing us. Push your entire friend group of artists to move from one site to the next that promises you a kinder experience.

Art drives movements, it drives change, it is all that encompasses being human. If you take that away from the shitty places, they will be left with nothing but a cesspit of inhumanity and the people who follow you will be more incentivized than ever to move with you.

Yes, this is terrifying. There are no guarantees. There never was, and never are, and never will be.

But stay connected. Stay human.

Support each other and be willing to hold hands and jump when we all - as a group - need to jump from the flames we're all trying to convince ourselves wont kill us before rescue comes.

Rescue isn't coming, rescue will be found hand in hand with each other. I'm offering you my hand, please take it. There's always a new start, there are always helping hands reaching for you. You have to look up from the doom-scroll long enough to see and take them.
