By the way, if you want to help to get me out of an art block, feel free to send me your old sketches, lineart or whatever kind of unfinished drawings of the safe-for-work kind that have been sitting in your drafts folder for far too long.

Just post/reblog your stuff here on tumblr and add something akin to @omnomnomwisenom Finish It challenge or whatever in the description so I can see it in my notifications.

Hoo boy. Okay, for anyone seeing this, this is in response to a conversation @i-am-darth-feanor and I had in the tags where they wondered what Homestuck was about and I asked if they wanted me to explain, to which they answered yes.

Alright.

Homestuck starts with a boy named John Egbert on his thirteenth birthday. He is waiting for a Sims-like multiplayer game called Sburb to come in the mail so he can play it with his friends Dave Strider, Rose Lalonde, and Jade Harley. Playing the game, however, triggers a meteor strike aimed directly at John’s house, which he escapes just barely through a mechanic of Sburb. This reveals an entirely new dimension, in which John’s friends slowly join him to discover a whole new world of quests and rpg-like adventure even as Earth is destroyed by a whole storm of meteors.

As the kids explore this new dimension, they begin to interact with a group of internet trolls that have been hounding them all for months. It turns out that these internet trolls, are, in fact, members of an alien species called trolls, and played their own session of Sburb (except they called it Sgrub.) As the trolls grow increasingly important to the human kids’ session, we switch over to the story of the troll session, ending with the revelation that the purpose of Sburb/Sgrub is to create a new reality, and that the reality the trolls created is, in fact, the human kids’ reality.

Something went wrong in its creation, however, and not only can the human kids not create a new universe as intended, but a non-player character called Jack Noir from their universe gains powers he isn’t supposed to have. He thoroughly wrecks the human kids’ session, and even enters the trolls’ session, placing them in danger. As the trolls hide away and try not to break down (and are largely unsuccessful at this) the human kids learn of and implement a way to reset their reality in a way that would make their guardians the players. The four human kids escape their reality to make room for these new players, Jane Crocker, Dirk Strider, Roxy Lalonde, and Jake English, to exist in a new version of the human universe and play their own game, while the original four kids and the surviving trolls make their way through the spaces between universes to this new human reality.

During the four new kids’ adventures, we learn of a new pair of characters: Calliope and Caliborn. They are of another alien species known as cherubs, and exist in yet another reality. In the end, Calliope joins all eight human kids and the surviving trolls in the new human reality to finally create a new universe where humans, trolls, and the non-player characters that populate Sburb’s alternate dimensions can all live in peace. Meanwhile, Caliborn goes off to become the highly destructive time-traveling villain known as Lord English, who made all of the shenanigans and horrors necessary by time-traveling his ass around everywhere and turning the blasted plot into a stable time loop. I’m absolutely not bitter at all about this

Now, what all this plot summation does not describe is that Homestuck is also about a thousand random references and memes in a trenchcoat. It’s also a masterpiece made up of 8000 pages of art (both still frames and gifs), narration, and chat logs, multiple flash games, impressively long flash animations, and a ridiculously huge soundtrack, much of which doesn’t even get used in the series proper. There’s time travel and alternate selves galore. There’s intermissions you think are completely random until hundreds or even thousands of pages later and it turns out that was important, actually. There’s one event that literally retcons dozens of previous pages. It also retcons an entire timeline and this is integral to the success of the heroes. There’s an entire rpg-like system of classes and aspects (typically known as aspects). There’s a fascinating yet confusing system of four types of romance, only one of which actually bears any resemblance to normal romance. There’s an entire blood color/Western-zodiac-sign—based caste system for the trolls. Toby Fox of Undertale fame lived in the author’s basement for a while and contributed a lot of the music. The fandom apparently was so huge and influential it permanently changed the way fandom and conventions work. The author is a character in the story and he dies. One actually very important event is told solely through shitty claymation. The entire thing is bound up in themes of narrative and fate and escaping them.

*ahem*

Homestuck is quite an adventure, but it’s worth it, in my opinion. If you’d like to read it, you should download the Unofficial Homestuck Collection (PC only), which is free and has pretty much everything you need to have an OG Homestuck Experience. (The original site is pretty much completely broken due to most of the links that went to external sites being broken over the years, plus flash dying broke a huge chunk of the rest.) If not, then I hope that my explanation has been helpful.

Also, there’s a huge amount of info that I just can’t feasibly include in this explanation and still have it make sense, so if there’s anything specific you’d like to know about just ask!

(Fair warning if you do decide to read Homestuck, there some bigoted jokes and a number of racist stereotypes, of about the quantity common to 2000s/early 2010s internet culture, in the comic. Just a heads up. The Unofficial Collection does have an option to remove slurs, if that helps.)

OK so i convinced my sister to read homestuck! she will read one page for each reblog on this post !! lets get her into this hell >:]

i was reading Hero of Ages and this is the first thing i thought about

[i-am-darth-feanor]

I recently started a DND campaign with my friends... here's my character! His name is Drimrekh Thanoril and he's an edgelord drow paladin who's really bad at being edgy. He has a whole backstory and a planned character arc but he's basically lifted from the secondary villain of the draft of And the Deadwood Burned, lol.

His whole deal is that he wears a mask to hide his face because he is an important person travelling on a secret quest. The mask stays on for a while until he gets comfortable with his party. It was originally going to be made of dragon scales but since we're starting at level one it's just a metal mask carved to look like dragon scales.

Inktober 2022 Day 5: Flame

Maedhros falling into the fiery crevice... I kinda lost my sketchbook for a bit so I’m behind on Inktober but catching up I promise!

[i-am-darth-feanor]

Inktober 2022 Day 13: Kind.

He was as noble and as fair in face as an elf lord, as strong as a warrior, as wise as a wizard, as venerable as a king of dwarves and as kind as summer.

some elrond for y’all. I think he should get to meet Summer. :)

Giving up on ink and brush, ballpoint for the win. (this was so violently american it hurt me to draw it guys) but it’s one of my better artworks so far!
