The switch is now on off...

I am so excited for everything new going on with OFF! It's been such an inspirational game, and I'm so happy to see it revisited and remastered. I'll be sure to pre-order the physical release when I get the funds, but in the mean time, here's a Finch with a Switch.

this joke was not originally mine, credit to birdnormal because I saw this post on the tag and laughed

I've got to stop getting inspired by Brandy's old AUs lol Here's some Wing AU drawings from today, including additions of Finch and a friend's oc, Michael.

This post inspired me to do a little doodle with how some of my elsens do this. Little guys get so stressed their eyes change, lol

My favorite thing in OFF fanart is whenever someone draws the Elsens they draw them normally but when they’re considerably distressed out of their minds their eyes pop out

LIKE DAMN WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED

Ask The Cast!

Hello all! In the lead-up to Tiny Terror's release, I thought I'd introduce some very special characters that show up in the larger story.

I will be opening this account's ask-box so that people can submit questions to be answered or prompts to be draw featuring these characters. I will be avoiding spoilers, so if your question is not answered right-away, please understand it is probably something that will be explored in either Tiny Terror, or the larger Project GoldFinch.

I have been eager to create more content with these characters, I hope you all will enjoy!

do you have a job finch? if so, what do you do?

Finch is Enoch's Head Researcher. They've been tasked with finding ways to maximize sugar production, and have focused specifically on Burning and how it affects an individual. There is a connection between the burning of the furnaces and the natural process of becoming a Burnt that Finch intends to find. Finch spends almost all of their time in a morgue-like environment, among the dead (some bodies are brought to them instead of going directly to the furnaces).

If you're fine with a question less about the cast and more about yourself, what's your favorite kind of Burnt?

Yeah, I am down to share personal anecdotes as well ^^

My favorite burnts are definitely the Pastel Burnts! Finch's design is heavily influenced by them because of that. Here's a loose doodle of Finch's Pastel design next to a regular Pastel for comparison.

I also like Critics and Calvaries, but Pastels are the best by far imo.

OFFtober Day 12 - "OC" I was traveling for my birthday (the 12th), so I couldn't arrange the post like I wanted. Here it is a day late!

Den, Bandit, and Finch, the 3 identifiable/unique elsens showing up in Tiny Terror (the demo for Project GoldFinch). I hope to add more in later editions, but for now it's just these three.

[doughguts-art]

Various digitized sketches! Featuring Louis, Bandit, Cole, and some early concept Finches (you can tell because they aren't compressed in these, lol).

[doughguts-art]

So I got @enbyhoneyfluff 's old School AU on the brain again. Plus general Human AU shenanigans

Drew more of the Human Bandit, and finally drew the adorable Human Louis design!! I love them both so so much. Legit the most perfect human designs for em, I consider them canon aa I also did human versions of my elsens Monty and Finch. Monty being a teacher who disappeared, and Finch being a new student. I tweaked the design a bit to add a personal touch, but I also doodled some fanart of the School AU's Human Seneca. I wanted to somehow include the original Seneca's unique head, and I settled on a deformed lazy eye and facial scarring.

[project-goldfinch]

Although Finch has existed since 2019, their design has gone through many changes since their initial creation! Full credits for the wonderful Wheat on Toyhouse for Finch's old design, it was the groundwork for what Finch is now. I really appreciate all that Wheat has done.

Hope you enjoyed this trip down memory lane.

What does the cast like to do in their free time? :D

Not everyone has massive amounts of free time, but if they manage to sneak away, this is what they'd do. Some don't have that luxury, though.

If you cannot read the text, there's a transcription below the cut:

Finch is almost constantly working, but they enjoy sneaking time to read old human anatomy books.

Tart likes to spectre-watch. She enjoys keeping notes on the interactions between the creatures and naming individuals she sees often.

Samson likes to chill in the outdoor areas of Zone 1. He also enjoys sneaking treats to the cows when he can.

Boss uses all of his time to manage his "business". There is no rest for the wicked. He does enjoy a sweet from time-to-time though.

Den has no free time, not even to sleep.

Monty liked to write in journals in his free time.

Louis likes to relax in the library of Zone 2. He can't read the books, but he enjoys the quiet.

(Bandit's caption) Wouldn't you like to know weather boy? /ref

Finch! Lot's of Finch stuff completed this week,,

Some of these are cleaned up RP doodles with a friend, so that's why you see Michael and the Cocos (both an oc and original spectre design belonging to that friend)

[project-goldfinch]

How tall exactly is Finch? I believe they're shorter than the other Elsen.. (I love short characters)

They are MUCH shorter than the average elsen! I usually draw these characters at a "relative" height (I play fast-and-loose to focus more on posing for compositions), but for reference's sake, here's a height chart.

Finch, in this case, is 3'5". But if you also want to play fast-and-loose, just think "Finch is just about hip-height".

Hope this was helpful!

Not sure if this will go farther than tests, but I'm making my own little fangame! Tentatively called "Project GoldFinch", it would follow a small elsen from Zone 3, Finch, trying to escape from under the control of both Enoch and their addiction to sugar.

Here's pretty much everything I've made of this project so far. No promises I'll take it further, but I'm happy with what I've managed to make over these past few days. Please excuse the default chipsets. I just make facesprites and charsets lol

All of these are just screenshots of the files. I kinda want to keep fiddling with them, and I don't want to share files I'd be changing later. Plus I don't want people to use them since they're either mine or a friend's ocs..
