#first time i had to redraw frisk

[jennyyart]

You're filled with Determination

Howdy guys! I’ve decided to redraw one of my first digital artworks, featuring Frisk - my favorite character from Undertale!

Drawing this makes me feel really nostalgic as I miss the time when I was still in the fandom and how much fun I had back then. I remember all of my sketchbooks were filled with Undertale fanart, and I’d spend a lot of time binge-watching Jacksepticeye and other YouTubers’ gameplay.

As for this artwork, redrawing it makes me realize that I have improved quite a lot over my past 8 years of drawing digital art. I’m happy with my progress and I’ll continue to get better with my skill ( ^ω^ )

Who’s your favorite Undertale character? Feel free to share them in the comment （≧∇≦）

Four years ago, I drew my first ever finished digital art piece, using a Huion 420 tablet off of Amazon, and Krita. I was so proud of it, I showed it off to my friends and family on instagram, and I didn’t think I could get any better than this. Fast forward to the next year, and I drew it again, just to see how much better I could make it.

This time I used a Wacom tablet with Krita. It was one of the cheaper ones, but still an upgrade. I was even more proud of this one, but I wasn’t really that happy with it. I didn’t like how Papyrus turned out, and it seemed so awkwardly spaced and posed. I knew I still had more to learn, and I rushed it, since I didn’t think I could do any better. I then decided to redraw it again the next year.

This time I used Ibis Paint X and a small stylus on my phone. I was ecstatic with how this came out. I thought this was the absolute best I could ever do, but I still had little nitpicks about it. Again, I struggled a lot with drawing Papyrus, but this time I was also unhappy with the colors and shading, and how Sans was drawn (I have no idea why I made him thicc). But again, I redrew it the next year.

This one was a huge confidence booster for me. I had just gotten a brand new laptop from my parents: A Lenovo Yoga, with a Wacom bamboo ink stylus. It was the best gift I ever received, but on top of that, they got me Clip Studio Paint PRO. So I was ready to make some good ass art. This time I sketched everything out on paper, then finished it in CSP. I even attempted a background, which didn’t come out too bad. Papyrus doesn’t look horribly off model, and the poses and composition overall was just better. I used a clean sketch for the lineart, since that was a big struggle with my previous versions, and I used colors other than black and white for shading. After I made this, I felt like I didn’t need to continue redrawing it, because I thought I was at my peak.

I redrew it this year.

I used my Lenovo Yoga, but this time I had a Wacom bamboo plus, and Clip Studio Paint EX. I added more characters, and took a little bit more inspiration from the original, but I mostly wanted it to feel more alive. I finally perfected how I draw Papyrus, and Toriel, Asgore, and Frisk aren’t statues anymore. I showed off what I’ve learned about lighting and shading, did actually clean lineart, and I even did a full background! I’m so proud of this, and so happy with how far I’ve come as an artist, and I can’t wait to see what my future self draws next year.

Here's some more deleted scene panels that never made it in

sorry there's no captions, there's just too many panels to describe and i'm tired. hopefully i'll have the energy/rememebr to do so tomorrow ):

IM REALLY SAD THIS ONE DIDN'T GET IN. I even drew asriel shutting flowey in a box for this joke to work. There was going to be a visual gag of it being a "soap" box. Haha.

Asgore was originally going to tell Asriel to think of something nice to get his mind off of his panic attack.

Which, while funny, took away the feeling of intense panic the audience and asriel should have been feeling at the time. It just didn't fit the pacing/mood. It also showed that -well, i don't know if this is a legitimate grounding technique or if it'd be read as "its ok just think happy thoughts <3 then ur panic attack would end" which... is not.... how that works. Even if it was only to give Asriel a moment of respite, it's shown as effective until Asgore brings up a bad memory. So. bad comic sequence.

more stuff under the cut

I had a really, really hard time balancing the tone of the scene that is currently happening in the redraw. it's why i'm so behind in my drawings, so i'm only now sketching the next couple month's updates.

This chapter has gone through SO MANY changes. I feel that comes with it being the first chapter to completely diverge from the original tumblr version.

Asriel was originally going to have a very on-the-nose nightmare about Flowey feeling excluded from the family and fearing drowning. Now, the whole darkness/water metaphor for suicidal depression will be introduced when that stuff starts to come into play in chapter 4...

i mean, just to really hammer home how much i had to delete for this: i actually did sketch out the original tumblr version here. I had it all ready before chapter 2 began posting. But as I was finishing the color for the warship section I realized, shoot, I don't wanna repeat it.

When I first made the tumblr version, i was getting burnt out and the characters just became so much... meaner? rude? to each other. some bickering or annoyance is fine but I have a bad habit of going overboard. That's something I hope to correct in the rewrite -and focus more on less drama and more wholesome/loving moments.

(note the above scene is shown not in full. its jumping around a bit)

Even tho I was mostly keeping chapter the same the first time I sketched it for the redraw, I added this scene. The idea was that when the house was on fire, Frisk would of ran off to the right of the house to where you can see Old Home.

There, even tho Frisk can't verbally talk, the two have a nice heart-to-heart. Chara remember Frisk has [spoilers] issues. Chara was going to own up to their bad behavior.

Now well, hm. Chara's got a lot of shit going on. Frisk of course has forgiven them (like they do for everyone in the underground -_- oh frisk...) and it's going to be something that's addressed down the road. for now, they've held hands, and shown solidarity for each other. As kids, they're going to goof around and be buddies and not let the cruddy stuff chara did earlier matter. things are so much less of a big deal when you're a kid.

[imbonewary]

I am suuuper writer's blocked right now, so no new chapter, but I did redraw my JumbleTale roster! I will update the blog header soon, but for now...

Here is the main cast, as they appear around the time Serif first arrives in JumbleTale!

Just because I can, I’ll drop some lore as well; everyone’s souls are displayed here and, while monsters do have white souls, the light they give off is tinted slightly, which reflects character traits and magic affinity; not that a monster can't learn magic that doesn't match their soul color, but it's easier to learn magic that does. That said, here's everyone's attributes (and call signs), from left to right:

Serif is a True Blue (Integrity). Technically, Serif isn’t native to JumbleTale so a different set of rules apply to him, but he is still associated with a soul color. Blue, or Dark Blue, is associated with Integrity; not that Serif can’t lie, he actually lies a lot, but he stays true to who he is, to his core beliefs and principles, no matter what he goes through. “Despite everything, it’s still you.”

Lucky Papyrus is a Just Yellow. Despite being raised to be a weapon by [Redacted] Gaster, Papyrus always had a strong sense of right and wrong no matter how much Gaster tried to beat it out of him. He cares less about what’s technically legal than he does about what’s fair.

Sanatos (Sans) is a Persevering Purple. A mix of Patient and Determined, Sans was quite adept in the realm of politics, until he best friend, King Asriel, died in his arms, causing Sans to retreat from everyone and everything. His specialty is to pick apart a problem into its component parts and recognize the intricate web of side effects a potential solution might have.

Hero Frisk and Buttercup Chara are both Determined Reds. I know there’s theories that Red isn’t actually Determination, but I’m going to go with it anyways, at least until a more concrete explanation is available. I’m also going to cover both at the same time because of how connected they are and that comparing the two is the easiest way to describe them both. Despite both being very Red, Frisk leans more towards Brave Orange while Chara leans more towards Persevering Purple, ending up at a more raspberry color. While Frisk is more likely to brute force a solution, Chara will step back and analyze the situation before finessing a solution. While not technically related to soul color, Frisk’s lack of empathy makes him more ready, willing, and able to do literally anything it takes to accomplish his goals, no matter who he hurts along the way.

Amber Alphys is a Brave Orange. Surprisingly. She is the embodiment of the phrase “Courage isn’t the lack of fear; it’s being scared to death and moving forward anyways”. Trained to be a bodyguard and steed in the Labs, she is powerful and skilled in combat but lacks confidence in social interactions, mostly due to lack of experience in her youth.

Starling (Mettaton/Mettané) is a Persevering Purple. As a Purple bordering Determined Red, Metta ends up with a hot pink color and is surprisingly similar to Chara, who is a Red bordering Purple. Metta is just as dramatic as his robotic counterparts but is more focused on puzzles and riddles than entertainment and fame, putting his detective/deduction skills to good use once Gaster erased himself from existence and left a big hole behind. While most interpretations of Mettaton are a bit of a gossip, this Metta doesn’t mind keeping what he learns to himself if the one it’s about wants him to, happy that he was able to find the knowledge at all.

Doc Toriel is a Kind Green. The driving force behind basically everything Tori does is the deep seated need to help others; this is the main reason she accepted the title of Royal Scientist, not because she loves science, but because she wanted to use the position to help the Lab victims. Bordering Cyan, making her more of a teal/turquoise, highlights her nurturing nature. This also makes her the perfect partner for Metta when working with Lab victims, bringing a gentleness Metta lacks while digging into the truth.

Captain Asgore is a Patient Cyan. Rounding out the group, Asgore embodies Patience in every aspect of his life, from training newbie Guards to dealing with the general public as a Peace Keeper. Patience and Kindness often go hand-in-hand, so he is often mistaken for a Kind Green, but he more just utilizes kindness to get the results he wants; however, he knows that some people aren’t motivated by gentle understanding, and Asgore has no problem using force when needed.

While not pictured, I know the soul colors of several other important, or at least interesting, characters as well. [Redacted] Gaster is a Just Yellow, which Papyrus inherited; he could “justify” anything as being “for the greater good.” Queendyne, or Queen Undyne, is a Brave Orange, bordering Red, and is a bit of a political wrecking ball. Frisk’s cousin, Marriweather or Marri, that took them in before they fell is a Kind Green bordering Yellow, making her a sort of olive green, and we’ll see more of her later. Spear Mouse (Scarf Mouse) is a True Blue while Bronze Masque (Nacarat Jester/red demon) is a Patient Cyan, despite his coloration. Doggo and his protégé Tomcat (Burgerpants) are Patient Cyan and Brave Orange respectively; they fit together like puzzle pieces.

I wrote out a ton more, like five paragraphs worth, before realizing I really should just make a new post for background characters and who all is jumbled.

This is the same pic from above but with some extra added bits, like Metta’s eventual robot body and Alphys with just her dress and showing off her stripes. Some interesting notes about design choices, in no particular order, are:

Alphys' coat and dress are the same colors as Papyrus' vest and shirt, respectively.

Doc Tori's apron is her Royal Scientist uniform; white lab coats were optional anyways and she likes differentiating herself from the trauma of The Labs. Before the Underground, the uniform was made of leather and styled more like a Blacksmith's apron, since that's more-or-less what the job entailed, but now days it's just sturdy brown cloth. I always did like brown and purple as a color combo.

Asgore's head and mane were really hard for me to wrap my head around before so this time I took a shortcut and traced Simba from The Lion King before I started messing with the design. He still looks a lot like Simba, for better or worse.

I swapped the stripe colors of Frisk and Chara's shirts, partially to reference their jumbled character traits, but also because I think Yellow Justice suits Hero Frisk and Purple Perseverance suits Buttercup Chara better than the other way around.

Sans is the only Boss Monster displayed here, though Asriel, Undyne, and Gaster are all Boss Monsters as well. Boss Monster souls give off more color than their regular counterparts and this can be used to identify them as early as a few years old. In trying to expand on this I’ve come to realize that I really need to write a full post about how Boss Monsters work in JumbleTale, and probably get into monster reproduction as well.

For Metta's wheelchair, I took colors form Mettaton's original box form. Turns out, wheelchairs are really fucking hard to draw. Metta's in particular is based on a more sporty, versatile wheelchair design rather than the common hospital-style wheelchair.

Asgore and Toriel are often compaired to goats but I always thought they looked like they had some lion-like traits as well. Since Doc Tori and Captain Asgore are not Boss Monsters and are not related in any way, I decided to highlight these differences by making Tori a pure goat monster and Asgore a horned lion.

Annual Update 2024

Alright everyone! New year, new updates for all my stuff!

Starting with ...

AtDFF and AYC

(The new signatures for my main art, AtDFF, and AYC)

As some, and by that I mean most of you have probably noticed, I rebooted AtDFF... again. I technically started a revamp all the way back in 2020 where I was redrawing the older updates to better match the current style and reformat the asks and text for better readability, but that didn't impede on the main updates (well, besides putting more onto mine and the rest of the team's work load.)

The Reboot

This past year though, I made the decision to completely reboot the comic for a few reasons. One was an attempt to renew my motivation, another was wanting to rework some of the lore, yet another was being inspired by @askfallenroyalty to remake the comic and post to ComicFury, but I think the main factor was... I wasn't all that happy with it. I think I kept comparing it to other comics, especially Fallen Royalty, which is my own issue, please don't go blaming anyone else. I knew I could do better, especially after over 5 years working on this, but now looking back, part of me feels that, rebooting it again is, in a way, diminishing those years. Even with the 2020 revamp, prior to it you could go through the updates and really look at how my art has progressed, and though true you can still scroll and find the old updates, it's just... not quite the same. Same can be said for the 2023 reboot.

Does that mean I'm going back on the reboot? No. I already have the next updates planned (I just haven't had a chance to work on them that often) and I really like the new lore of the world that I've come up with. I just think this will be the last time I ever reboot the comic. Whatever happens, happens, and I need to just roll with it. Even if what happens is our little roadtrip getting derailed into a corn field again, lol.

Comic Fury and New Comic?

With that said, what do I have in store for the new reboots of AtDFF and AYC? (yes AYC got rebooted too, I just haven't posted the first update like I did with AtDFF) Well, I mentioned a Comic Fury, which surprise. Both AtDFF and AYC have their own Comic Fury pages now! Don't worry, I still plan on posting to Tumblr as well, but now you can also find them on Comic Fury. Along with another comic I'm planning to do (eventually), Undertale-ish: The Comic. Ever wonder what Ish Frisk's journey through the Underground was like? Want to see what happened in most (not all) of their 800 runs? Want to see this child grapple with their self insecurities, perfectionism, and the responsibility of having full control over time and an entire civilization's lives in the palm of their hand? Want to see Chara as a ghost? Well that's what you'll get with Undertale-ish: The Comic! Coming I don't know since I such at scheduling and time management for these things!

Schedule

Speaking of scheduling! When are any of these comics coming out? Well... I just said I suck with schedules, and I can't promise really... anything when it comes to release but like... I know I for sure would like to release things... regularly? Even with the start of the reboot, I started it in April, and that stuff extended until at least August. Every summer I naively think "Oh! I'm gonna have so much time to work on the comic!" and then I get a summer job. Because I'm nearly 20 and going to college and even if I'm still living under my parent's roof, I can't entirely rely on my dad to pay my tuition. Only for half the year. Then during the school year, I have classes, and I feel burned out by the time I get home, and- It's a whole thing I need to find someway to work around or else nothing gets done and my brain just screams at itself. So, I think scheduling is something I'm gonna figure out throughout January, and try and get a backlog of updates ready throughout February to April or May so maybe we can start posting again in summer. Does that feel like a long wait? Even being near a year from the first update of the AtDFF reboot? Yes. But also I'm trying to over estimate and give myself the time and space I need while still attending college, and I wouldn't just be working on one comic update, but multiple. I'm trying to give myself space and some grace instead of making promises that feel hollow after a while of being unfufilled.

Lack of Motivation and How to Fix

Another thing to address, is my motivation when it comes to these series. I don't think it's accurate to say I've felt completely unmotivated to work on either comic, I mean, I was motivated for some of the beginning of last year to full on overhaul them, but I will say that, these comics have started to feel like a job. It's been something I've felt for a couple years now, where I've been having less fun with the comic as it's begun to feel like actual work. Believe me, I'm super excited for some of the later plot points of both AtDFF and AYC, and I love Undertale-ish and these characters but to get to those points or character moments, it feels like I'm slogging through what comes before it, which isn't good. This is something that sure, rebooting helped for a bit, before I got caught up in school and other stuff, but it's not a permanent solution and I've felt myself slipping back into the comic feeling like a job.

So how might I remedy this? Well, I think the solution might lie in another series I started this year, Drawing Junior Secret Squad until Chapter 3. Even if DJSSuC3 is more Deltarune focused, I've enjoyed drawing Chicago and my other fankids pretty much daily as, there's not that much pressure on it. Definitely not like there is with AtDFF or AYC. I don't have to line, or even color them since, they're just little doodles. I don't have to worry about missing a day since, I'll just do multiple the next day. They're quick, they're easy, I can just draw whatever idea I have with the characters I want, I'm having fun. Back when Ask the Dreemurr-Font Family was nothing but an ask chat on Amino, that's what I did it for. For fun. I wasn't worried with popularity or being like other creators, I just did silly little character driven roleplays for fun. I think that's been my issue with the comics. They aren't fun anymore. They're work because, I feel it's my job to tell this story rather than just... telling it because I want to. So, I think going forward, I'm gonna try to have more fun with the comics and Ish in general. For you all, that's probably gonna look like more sketches and doodles getting posted and maybe even just sharing small comics based off ideas that pop into my brain or from roleplays that happened in my server. Little things to help me regain the enjoyment I had with these comics and world.

Deltarune: Fool's Fate

I think that's all I've got to say on the Undertale based comics, so how about now we move onto something Deltarune related? As I was doing DJSSuC3, I introduced an idea called Deltarune: Fool's Fate. Aka, Chicago and Co's adventures through the Dark Worlds after Kris denied their destiny. So far, this has just been little doodles, character designs, and a roleplay I've been doing in my discord server. I've been having quite a bit of fun with that RP, we're nearly to the end of what would be the first "chapter" and have been fighting Dorothy, the secret boss of the Attic Dark World and who some of y'all might recall I made a real life doll of when my old computer finally kicked the bucket earlier this month. (I've still yet to make her dress or crown) I think roleplays have always been the thing I find the most enjoyable when it comes to character exploration as, I don't have to spend forever drawing comics and I get to sorta live through the characters. It's something I've been doing for characters from even before I was in this fandom. With the Fool's Fate roleplay too, I've also got to come up with elements that could feasibly be in an actual video game without, you know, actually coding a video game.

I don't know where Fool's Fate will go from here, while it'd be cool to have it be an actual fangame, I don't have that sort of skill. Nor the budget to pay a team. (My team for the comics is really just a bunch of friends I convinced to help me out for free.) Even with a sprite comic, it'd be too much. So, for now, it'll likely just remain a concept and roleplay. But, who knows. Maybe someday I could make it into something. I mean, after watching this year's Underevent I wanted to.

Other stuff

With all the UTDR stuff out of the way, what about some of my other stuff? (Because, surprise, Undertale and Deltarune aren't the ONLY things I do. Just the things I hyperfixate on the most.) Well, I've got my Fakemon region, Azmayca, POW-R, Dragon Riders, and Kinder Eyes which I started last summer. I don't really have any plans for them, asides from bugging people for ideas and doodling whenever I'm in the mood. However I think starting this year, I'm gonna try to post more of the doodles I make. Either ones in my sketchbook since DJSS gave me the confidence to post sketchy silly little doodles like that, or sketch doodles I draw digitally as warm ups. Though who knows. Maybe a hyperfixation swing some time during the summer will cause me to actually try to do something crazy like outline the whole Azmayca region and hypothetical game. Hopefully not something like that though. Making the evolutions of my redesigns of the starters might be nice.

Commissions

Another thing I'd like to finally do next year is update my commissions sheet. It's something I've had in the work for a while now, and was working on along side launching the comic updates. But, like the comics, school and work got in the way so... I sorta forgot about it. Regardless! I'm gonna try to post my updated sheet some time within the next few months, it's mostly just been havin to draw or find recent examples of my work. Hopefully then I'll actually get some more commissions because, um *looks at the whooping $3.94 in my checking account* I could really use the extra money. I might work during the summers and get grade payments from my dad but, that stuff is to pay my tuition and some of my lunches during the semester, and even with lunches, 500 dollars is spread thin through 17, 16 ish weeks. That's like, only $30 a week, which is maybe enough to cover buying lunch at the campus food court like, once or twice from the food court. Maybe three times if I'm lucky and conservative with my spending. Not to mention that $300 of that went to my new laptop, and even if I should be getting $300 from a paycheck I was never paid back when I worked at Arby's 3 summers ago, I still haven't gotten that gift card in the mail so... Yeah. If I was living on my own, I'd be screwed. Which is why commissions and Patreon are like, my only source of income during the school year. (I still need to look into getting an on campus job for this upcoming semester but that's its own whole big can of worms.)

Patreon

Speaking of Patreon, that's another goal I want to set. Actually posting to it again. I had a burst early last year were I was regularly posting to Patreon with early access chapters of The Puppet and the Real Boy (before I retconned that with Fool's Fate) and thanks to my only Patreon ever @kierangecko, I managed to make around $50 bucks which ended up being used to help get blanks for some of my Christmas gifts for people (thank you Gecko. I know I did stop posting after like, May, but that money really came in handy.) So for this next year, I'm gonna try to post to that again. Be it WIPs of the comic, scripts, little doodles I don't post on Tumblr or whatever, I want to make Patreon another source of income. Which involves posting to it at least monthly. And even if I don't, then you guys won't have to worry about anything since I've got it set to not charge for months I don't post anything.

Resolution Review

So, to review some of my... I guess you could call them resolutions, though I'd rather think of them as goals I don't absolutely have to hold myself too but would just like to accomplish, I'd like to...

Have more fun when with AtDFF and AYC through drawing and posting more loose, silly comics and doodles

Try figuring out a posting and work schedule for AtDFF and AYC by then end of January

Hopefully get a back log of updates for both comics ready to release by summer

Start on and release Undertale-ish: The Comic sometime this year

Keep doing Drawing Junior Secret Squad until Chapter 3 until Chapters 3 and 4 of Deltarune hopefully come out sometime this year.

Possibly design hypothetical secret boss predictions for Chapters 4 and 5 of Deltarune before the next chapters come out.

Keep working on, designing characters for, and coming up with Dark Worlds for Deltarune: Fool's Fate. Perhaps even drawing some tarot cards with the chapter bosses.

Post more about my other projects, even if they're only sketchbook drawings or warm up doodles.

Update my commissions page and hopefully take more commissions to earn some extra money/save up for college or to move out.

Post regularly to my Patreon, also to earn some extra money.

Generally have a better year than 2023 and to find more enjoyment in my art and projects.

Closing

Ho boy! That was... A lot! This has turned out to be one very long post. Hehe. Well, should be over now that I've said all I need too. Also, if I haven't said it already, I'd like to thank all of you for supporting me and my art. Be it my comics, DJSSuC3, my other projects, or anything I've posted this year. It means a lot to me that people even like what I draw and you all mean the world to me. With all of that out of the way, thank you Creative Creators and I hope you have a Happy New Year.

Clothes stealing Papyrus headcanons pls?

Pfff heheh, okay so I’m just going to call him athleisure Papyrus and the reason I made him in the first place was because @mmhinman shared some brain rot with me that planted the idea that Papyrus borrowing my clothes would just end up looking like a crop top on him. I think we can agree Papyrus looks absolutely amazing in crop tops~

Now the first drawing I made of Papyrus borrowing a sweater was def meant to be more typical classic Papyrus. He was cleaning around the house and found your sweater draped over a chair in the bedroom. He was about to toss it in with the rest of the laundry but then it hit him, your scent, and it was lovely. The familiarity making his smile wider. Perhaps it didn’t need to go into the wash quite yet, it looked clean, it smelled pleasant, to him at least. As he turned the garment in his hands he thought to himself that it might even fit him, perhaps a bit short in length but he knew he could rock it. With an all too giddy expression he burst into his signature Nyeh Heh Hehs as he admired the fact that it did indeed fit and it looked so amazing in fact that he admitted he might be wearing it for a while.

Now then… I think what more people might be wondering about is the version I keep redrawing in the same athleisure outfit, where the top is more of a hoodie with a mesh front…….. WELLP……. I REALLY liked the idea of Papyrus borrowing my clothes and I love wearing cool but comfy athleisure and I was like dang… Papyrus wearing things that I consider “my style”…. yes please! Not to mention I love drawing a suave Papyrus with half lidded eyes. It’s more of a guilty pleasure as I fall deep into a Papyrus shaped simp hole lol but let’s jump into headcanons I have swirling around in my head for him.

Post Pacifist Papyrus, an undetermined amount of years on the surface have passed. Papyrus has finally had the chance to make more friendships, but has ultimately found satisfaction in his closer friendships with Undyne, Frisk, Sans, and Flowey. With no royal guard being needed he eventually turned his passion and drive into mastering the art of expertly crafting noodle dishes of every kind! Not only that but he has built a reputation with the local youth, for crafting the most clever and thrilling puzzle installments at the local parks (minus the spikes and flames… though he did try to make an argument for them) . Alright alright why am I saying all this you might wonder? What I’m trying to express is that Papyrus has built a life that he feels a lot more happy and content with. There is no longer a pressure to go above and beyond for what he wants, don’t get me wrong he definitely still goes above and beyond, but now it’s with more of a calm confidence. He may no longer struggle to gain friendship or recognition, but over the years he realized he’s still yearning for something…. or perhaps someone. It was love at first sight when he finally laid his eyes on you. There were no doubts, definitely not compared to all the other unsuccessful dates he had been on. This time he felt an instant connection. He may no longer be trying to capture a human but he was certainly looking to capture your heart. This Papyrus has definitely finished reading the dating hand book, and properly returned it to the librarby. In fact he’s read several more similar books on the surface and by similar books…. I mean he actually switched over to reading romance manga thinking they offered sound advice and examples of how to romance a potential date mate. Technically, Undyne was the one to suggest the manga route and Papyrus, always eager to learn about combat or cooking from a trusted friend, had no reason to question this advice. This inevitably lead him down a path towards reading romance novels and eventually….. fanfic (hehehehe LOL). So now we have a Papyrus with a cool confidence, fueled by the power of every romance trope, convinced that he knows how to sweep you off your feet and make you fall for him. Well it worked, because the two of you are dating and he can tell how much you’re enjoying every second of it. Papyrus just can’t help how much he loves seeing how effective all his research was because it reliably gets you to blush your brightest when he puts it to use. Every win just fueling his confidence further and further, he has no doubt that his next plan will work like a charm and you can see it from his expression too.…. hmmm yeah those are the thoughts swirling in my head for now related to clothes stealing, athleisure Papyrus hahaha

Hello visitor!

This account and the comic will be discontinued due to my lost interest in the comic. I still love undertale and it's fandom and my comics but things happened and I had to moved on. Now, I'm using Facebook for posting my art :https://m.facebook.com/Sarahs-lover-V%C5%A9-tr%E1%BB%A5-m%C3%A0-t%C3%B4i-y%C3%AAu-th%C3%ADch-1671599856254814/?ref=bookmarks

If you're interesting in Losttale's story here's a little description: Our protagonist's name is unknown_000. She's the first creation and the first "human Frisk" of this game made by Tobi. Things started when Undertale is not the game that we knew today, it was when humans and monsters lived in peace. That day, a code worker tried to deleted the game using an unknown virus for personal revenge. It was too late when Tobi discovered it. He couldn't save his daughter also our protagonist from being distroyed. She failed from saving her own best friend forever which is Sans and everyone else. The only things she could hold on was a piece of save file of him then she fall into slumber. Tobi frozen her at that time till now. Using every last save files she still have in, Tobi create Undertale . Years later, for an unknown reason, she woke up in underground after the true ending. Unable to recalls all of the lost memories. This comic is where she have to choose to save herself from being delete again or destroy her own self to save every single lifes because she now carrying that deathly virus which is a part of her body. The Sans that she dear is nowhere to exist, she had no reason to continued on. Will she try to revive Him? Or Tobi ever really care about his on creation like daughter?

Q&A: True reason?

- Ya know my dad Rip my iPad , artblock, endless amount of study and finally time

When will the comic can be continued?

- It depends on the situation, plus I have others projects. To be honest, with the lack of family support for what I did and my mental health being worse than before. I don't know

This account is offline forever? - I used it to read comic but please don't send any message here i will not read

FUCK YOU! - I know!! I'm sorry for being a brat in the past. I was young and naive, I really wanted to slap my 12 year old right now T.T - I'm not a person that likes attention now cuz.. ya know? up there..

I didn't have any expectation for anyone would read this post but if you did, thanks

Anyyyyyway thanks you for reading and bye!! Please enjoy this redraw of mine

Weapons: Magical Scythe (besides blasters and bone attacks)

Magic Colour: indigo  (Which represent faith, the main trait of this AU)

HIS STATS:

*HP: 999 (Yhea, it is a high HP for a Sans)

He started with a normal 20, then went to 1 then a bit by bit every reset he gets more and more due to Frisk’s fights he had, killing her every time

*LV over max, but it is glitchy and it can be seen as 20

*DEF: 100

*His attacks are pretty much the same of a normal Sans, blue bone attacks, normal bone attacks, blaster attacks, the special ones are impossibly fast and frenetic, he have his scythe attacks, which he uses an incredible speed to attack with

SOME BASE INFO:

*Both of his eyes light up when he is angry and uses a lot of magic

*He is persistent and patient

*He has a good memory and remembers some of his resets and some of the erases

*He loves his brother, even tho he can be sometimes a jerk (Papyrus is the right hand of Undyne)

*He can shape shift in other animals

*His wings are mostly hidden, he uses them for advantage

*His feet have a layer of magic that protects him from getting cold paws

*His claws have a protective layer for him not to scratch constantly

*His fangs are magically protected since they can be quite dangerous if he looses the control of himself

*The bones under his clothing are dark, since his natural bones are black, he puts up a facade, so his hands, feet, face and half of the neck is white, his facade falls when he wants to or he is too tired

*His code is broken, so he can easily go out from the game

*His tattoos from the rib cage glow when using extreme amounts of magic or pushing himself too much, but it also glows when he absorbs magic or sensing magic

*He can see souls without being in a fight, he does actually to focus not to see them

*he likes to read

*He likes to spend times in Waterfall between the echo roses looking at the glowing stones from the ceiling

WHAT HE DOESN’T LIKE:

*the resets (this one is obvious)

*when his brother tries to be the hero and stops listening to him

SOME HISTORY:

*He is the son of W.D. Gaster (Demonstale!Gaster) and older brother of Papyrus.

*When their father disappear, he was 8, he took his father work and started to work along Alphys, then he gave up on that, working as a guard for Undyne, with his brother, secretly Asgore makes him the judge and the punisher of the Underground and the next 7 fallen children

*He was pretty active, but because of the resets that Frisk was doing, he slowly was getting lazier and serious, he stopped making puns, getting his brother worried when he observed that his brother stopped making jokes

*When Frisk had made the first genocide run, the shock of seeing his brother turned to dust made him unconsciously summon his scythe

So, 2019, huh? On a scale from 2016-2019, 2019 was worse than ‘18, but not as bad as 2017. Still sucked ass, though. However! I can say that throughout the decade, I was never stabbed!!! Which is definitely a plus.

Hit the read-more for the reasons why I chose what I chose for each month, and 2019 in art!

I wanted to dedicate this year of my art towards making finished, fully-coloured pieces. It’s been something that I’ve been struggling with for the past few years, and something I still think I can improve on!!!

January -

My first, really, quality finished piece, an art trade with @vaaloirr of her character, Alex. I especially wanted to showcase THIS piece as the first, because, honestly? Valerie has really done alot for me in 2018-19, even if she doesn’t know it!!! So, mini letter to you, Vaal!!!

Valerie, I first discovered you because of the Gasterblaster!AU when I saw 1nky promote your werewolf!frisk blog. Werewolves have ALWAYS been something that I really loved, especially as a kid, but I lost touch with it because I thought it was embarassing of me to like. (When it’s like??? Totally not)

YOUR au is what really got me back into werewolves, and loving undertale even more. I fucking adore how much Frisk has gone through and grown over the years, and you’ve been such an inspiration for me to start RoF, especially!!!! Crazy right?! Which is my whole fucking pride and joy!!! I feel like I’ve known these characters my entire life!! You, along with my boyfriend @meat-junkie have so far been my most engaging audience, and have really driven me to evolve my characters and story throughout the year. Like, fuck. (I’m crying a little writing this)

You’ve also been such a huge inspiration to me in coping with the fact that I’m autistic, because it’s something I was struggling with, too! Valerie you’re literally like the older sister I’ve always wanted, you’re so good ;w; Love you, sis.

February -

This month was kinda rocky for me. I don’t want to go too too into it, but it was the same month I had a breakup with someone of 3 years, and it kinda fucked me up emotionally during that time. This was probably when I really started coping with Nathanael, lmao. Just a good fucking boy!!! Look at him

March -

A redraw of a verrrry old Renaicus picture (not that old...it’s from a year prior oajasojaso)

Renaicus himself has been the character that I believe has evolved the MOST throughout RoF, not just in design. Hell, he used to be the antagonist of RoF!!! Like fuck!! it’s nuts!!! Renaicus used to be mean, jealous, skinny as all hell, and.,,,white. It’s hard to imagine that he used to be white, god. Looking at old art of him, I can hardly call them the same character!! They’re too different. old renaicus is like one of those sims that’s a complete duplication of your own aojsaosa

Renaicus is good, boy, I love him.

April -

One of my absolute favourite pieces of the year, actually!!! This was really when I started to get into doing linework, and I really just fucking love the result. Luci looks excellent, I love that enby lesbian

May -

Oh boy, religious trauma and homophobia!!!

2019 was really the year I started to really,,,get attatched, to Nath, in particular. Everyone says that their oc’s have a little bit of themselves in them, but, for nath and i??? Like,,,I put 2/3′s of myself in him this year. This was another piece I’m super proud of, and also another redraw! I really struggled with religion this past decade especially, and it was good to use Nath as my punching bag (asjosajoaoj terrible)

June -

,,,Listen

Honestly??? This whole fucking piece was kind of an omage to my boyfriend, who is, as they say, a DILF connoiseur and someone who I think has (somewhat) excellent taste in fictional men. George? One of those men. I REALLLLLLLY love how my boyfriend draws, ok? The fuckem,,, colours. Those neons. I go fucking APEHSIT. GOD. This was REALLY the time I started experimenting with colour and shading and different types of clothes and all that jazz. I couldn’t think of anyone better to showcase for June than everyone’s favourite plague doctor demon dilf. (aa)

July - (My birth month!!)

Hoo!! Not gonna lie, mid-summer is really where I get kinda laggy with art. I was struggling with some,,,other stuff that I don’t really wanna get into for personal reasons, and so it was just a kinda bum month. BUt FUCK if I’m not gonna draw GAY MEN being GAY and PLEASANT

August -

PLAGUE DOCTOR CLUB PLAGUE DOCTOR CLUB!!!

This was the month plague doctor club started >:3!!!

I’d like to say that this point in the year was really when I started getting closer to my Tumblr gang ( @artnerd1123 @anonymousfandomtrash @deviltufts​ and Vaal!!!) Like, this whole year was when we got close, but FUCK, aUGUST WAS NUTS

I’d live for plague doctor club... *mickey mouse voice) I’d live fow it...

September -

AH FUCK UNDERTALE YOU’RE IN FOR A LONG FUCKING TREAT WITH THIS ONE FOLKS

god, what do I say about this gotdamnn game??? shit!!! A fucking insane game with fucking amazing canonical queer rep with a fucking amazing story, AAAA

GOD, THE STORY

Undertale?? full of fucking trauma that I could relate the shit out of, like, a

(Hey toby? Can chara and asriel just be happy? thanks)

Damn it, Undertale’s the game of the fucking decade. Fight me. Undertale had such a cultural impact and changed so many lives, I’ll never be able to let it go. Can’t wait for what Deltarune brings!!!

October -

S p o o k y time

October!!! Heck!!

October was about the peak of when I tried to do a plot thing with RoF... (which i scrapped the majority of aojasosajosa, it was weird, uneeded,)

This was around the time I reaLLLY saw how much i was projecting onto Nath, and how it came to the point where it got super unhealthy for me. (Ever dissociate? Wish I never fucking did, thanks OJSOASJO)

The end of 2019 was really where I started to cope with some OOOOLLLLD trauma that I had repressed into my mind (until it decided to come the fuck back up AJOASJOSA)

The end of october was really when I started to change things around in RoF’s story and make it way better than it’s ever been! This is also one of the better fully-shaded and lineworked pieces!!! Linework is icky :(

November -

AAAAAAAAA IT’S MY FAVOURITE PIEEECE AAAA

Fucking. Shit. Colours. I love shading with red. and neons. god. I’m . I’m sorryI really don’t have much to say I just love this one so much

December -

I’d like to think that this piece is the kind of, goodbye, as it were, to my projecting of Nath. I really related to him (still do!) but it was time for me to fix things with his backstory and make him less of a punching bag and more of,,,a character I didn’t feel so bad about. But, religious trauma is religious trauma, and DAMN IT if I’m not gonna end the year with some catholic imagery (I wasnt even catholic, lmao)

SO, UH, YEAH???

this happened

this was a year

Sorry I don’t know how to format (No wonder I always got bad grades on MLA-styled essays)

This year??? Shit for life, but fuck, was it great for art.

Thanks for the whole year, Tumblr. It’s been,,,somethin.

How do I end posts like these? Well, I guess I just did

OH

Happy new year

here’s to a new decade!!! Can’t wait to drink alcohol in a few years wOOOOOO

The Flower of Acceptance.. or is it? - REDRAW

First drawing was made back in 2016 and the second one is the redraw--

Haha. Yes, it is my UnderGroove bby's--- Chara ((Frisk)) and Frisk ((Chara)) ahhhh--

I've always wanted to do these kinds of things but, I always say to myself that, " Nahhh.. maybe some other time when I really improved on art and junk. " I kind of had this conversation with myself again, whether I will actually do this or not. I decided to do it, as you can see and I kinda feel better about myself. Seeing that, I improved on my art really makes me happy.

A li'l story as I was making this tho.. I got some peeps comin' here at my house and I was, yes, trying to draw this but, I can literally feel them just staring at me. 2 kids where at my right and left. Really, REALLY close---

I tried my best not to look at them but, I looked anyways. I don't know why but, my head turned to them and it just made my hand go and work faster on this thing XD I mean, it's actually a nice feeling that people here in the same room as me are way more interested on my art than talking with one another but, I just felt really awkward and it made me want to try to make this art as fabulous as possible but, ended up just doing...that--

Gahhhh- mixed feelingsssssss

But, yeah. Anyways!--

Hope u like See you around

[askfallenroyalty]

It occurs to me that we never saw kris or suzy in the epilogue (though I think the latter was mentioned once? Idk). Did uh… are they doing decently?

// the darkworld arc had been abandoned/retconned. while there IS a UT-universe version of Kris and Susie (assuming Frisk isn't Kris in UT, tho Kris is still very much their own person regardless) in AFR, we will only know Susie in the redraw. (again... assuming UT Susie is Suzy and not a sister like the catty and catti situation.)

x-x we just know too little about DR we don't even know how the universes mirror each other and the timelines are all WHACK. its a nightmare to write for or even theorize about. i esp dont wanna think about how they'd change in the time skips of AFR.

anyway in the redraw we'll see a LOT more of Susie as Frisk's whole journey is about befriending her. i didn't add her and MK into the epilogue because we need a proper foundation that the redraw will provide. at that point, my Susie would diverge from canon Suzy heavily as her story would be quite different.

uh. speaking of that arc...

So. My original plan for the rewrite was for Gaster and Riverperson to have worked together in the prime timeline. then gaster got yeeted from time, leaving his work behind. Then, Chara would run away to the underground looking for a purpose and an escape from Asriel's BS and the island. (though, thinking on it, logically Mt.Ebott wouldn't be on monsterland... as that's exiled from humanity. so idk about that anyway)

Anyway exploring true lab Chara accidently uncovers an artificial darkworld and gets stuck as a ghostly narrator again, this time as a cherub with Feylow. Frisk, Susie and MK would be the party and they'd have to make their way home together. I've heavily considered this portion being a fangame-only material, for better play-value.

but uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

ughhhhhhhh.

ugghghh.... gaster.

The story itself can keep gaster to a bare minimum. The guy is scattered across time. he's not directly involved at all. at most we know he did SOMETHING to chara in the prime timeline with their soul and now things are on the fritz (what caused this AU) up until fake DW, where they're possessed again.

(˘･_･˘)

I just don't want to play with DR canon at all anymore. darkworlds are inherently going to tie into that. and granted, in UT canon there's entry #17 that implies a growing darkness... it's not a stretch that Gaster could of done this. And he DID have a DT extractor, and the timeline is vague but the similar wording (and how old the core is) could imply he was around Chara's time. None of this is a stretch

buuuut working with Darkworld, even if it's a fake one, is too close to DR canon and we just don't know much yet. when i first did the darkworld, i thought it'd be a fun excursion into the same chapter 1 area... but i got too into the improv and imagination side of things without understanding the original at all. (and bad improv) it didn't really hit me that DR was it's own game and lore until Chapter 2, and I realized just how early on we are into that game's story.

I just... I can work with what I've got, I can avoid DR canon as much as I can but ultimately, I'm working with 2/7ths worth of puzzle pieces.

I don't wanna do any of this. Gaster used to be a "free for all" in the fandom to do whatever timeline/lore thing you wanted to pull of cause he was free real-estate. but now DR is treating him more and more as a character and I don't wanna touch the guy as he's going to be jossing the story.

idk what to do in all honesty. The darkworld portion IS important, Chara goes through major character development that the Continue Arc is built on. But I've been struggling with Feylow as a concept, and well, this. what the hell am I going to do.

[xxtc-96xx]

wow, Undertale is two years old now O.O (tomorrow actually) so I thought I’d redraw one of the very first pictures I ever drew of the Undertale crew, I had actually planned on doing it for the first anniversary but time got away from me

it’s crazy what a year and a half difference will make on your drawing style...mostly that Frisk shrank and everyone else got taller xD  

[undertalepre2re]

Did a redraw of my first time drawing Sans, Frisk and really Frans in general. It was for @fransweek for First ____  and I chose meeting. I’m trying to practice after someone commented that my drawings had a chibi style, and that's not really what I want. So I need to focus on anatomy more.

[stripestheboar]

Liiiittle bit of a vent, so excuse me. No important information. Just me exhausting my frustrations, and unfortunately, frustration is my weakness. Too much of it and it destroys me from the inside.

So.

Now I remember why I quit drawing a couple years back. I was never good at it, and yeah I know “practice makes perfect”, and I practice regularly. Despite my frustrations, I’m getting better. I’m improving inch by inch. Following tutorials and finding examples from other amazing artists are very helpful.

But still.

The artist is their own worst critic.

I start off excited and eager, listening to music as I have the image in my head. I feel confident. I’m ready.

I start drawing. I draw. I draw and I draw, and at first, I genuinely feel like I’m creating art that displays weeks of constant practice. I’m eager to finish it and post it and see the reactions of my followers.

I finish it up, look back over it, and… well… I’m sure anyone who’s been an artist knows what this feels like. I barely need to explain. It just… looks wrong. Everything I thought I was doing right has turned out to be a disaster in my own eyes.

And so comes the erasing. The redrawing begins to take forever as each stroke is now ugly and doesn’t fit into place. Before long, a few hours have passed and I barely have anything down because it just doesn’t look right, but I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I have the image in my head, but I can’t seem to get it down.

Frustration sets in slowly, at a rate to where I can’t even recognize I’m getting aggravated over the imperfections of my own hand. All the music I love has become annoying and unlistenable, and I don’t know what else to put on because I’m not in the mood anymore. Drawing in silence, however, sounds like hell, so I bear through it. I get that pit in my stomach as I get more irritated, though I’m not angry at the art, but instead myself for not being able to work out something as simple as the shape of a face.

Eventually, I realize the state I’m putting myself in, and have to force myself away. I feel humiliated I wasted four hours on something so small and yet so ugly. Ugly to me, anyways. Nothing I can think of makes me feel better, so I just sit in silence and start writing. It’s the only thing that can bring me out of my foul mood.

Despite my frustrations, I tell myself I’ll get better. I look back at some of my earliest writings and remind myself I only came this far and with this passion through practice. Lots and lots of practice. I tell myself to get over it and try again tomorrow. Maybe it won’t look so bad when I wake up.

No matter what, I repeat myself that I get better with each day and with more and more practice. I think back to what I had learned through practicing. I learned how to make Papyrus now looks thinner than the other characters and I’m finally gettinng his teeth down. I’m able to finally get Undyne to stand in a confident-looking pose and how to make her look smug. I think I’ve gotten Frisk’ hair to look right. Hands have become easier to work with. I just need a good pose of me doing something with my hands as a reference and it becomes easier to work with.

I think about the things I need to work on. I need to work on drawing Frisk and Chara’s clothes, I still need to be able to get Alphys’ glasses just right. San’ skull needs more work. I’ve gotten Undyne’s body down, but I can’t get her face right; I have the same problem with Firsk, who is either too thin or too thick. I’ve established a shading style, but I need to work on how I shade and lighten hair. The heads are almost always gigantic in size, so I have to work on proportions, especially with arm length as well. I still need to work on hair at different angles.

I need to practice.

Writing all this down makes that pit in my stomach disappear, and I’m thankful for anyone who has taken the time to read this.

Sometimes I think about quitting and just going back to only writing, but then I think of the people who follow me for a reason, and I find the confidence fo pick my tablet up again the next day and get back to drawing.

Thanks for your support. Many of you don’t talk to me or interact with me, but just the fact that you take the time to look through my writing and my random shitposts and occassional pissy attitude is enough to make me feel giddy inside. I really appreciate you all; you’re my motivation.

Who knows, maybe I’ll post some of my imporovements. Depends on how I feel about them, or if anyone even wants to see them.

I feel better. But right now, I need to get back to writing. It makes me feel better.

HAVE A SKETCHDUMP WITH OLD SKETCHES (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

So here is that sketchdump I mentioned somewhere, was supposed to be longer but can't be bothered to scan more sketches in atm, so here goes I guess <: gonna have to make like 2-5 something more as I just have too many sketches, and even then there are some I can't post as they are spoilers for things I am working on hahaa

Comments and stuff down below because I love to explain stuff 

Ok First is a sketch of Fresh, our favourite parasite guy thingie! Wearing a shirt I brought around the time I sketched this due for it immediately made me think of him and also because it was hella cool! actually wore that shirt underneath my Underswap Papyrus hoodie when I cosplayed at Närcon actually xD

Sketches of Undyne wearing two different outfits that some of the contestants of Melodifestivalen wore, the Swedish outtakes for the Eurovision song contest, because those two outfits just screamed Undyne so had to sketch them up, the big pic is THIS  dress the singer is wearing and the other is THIS, both of those songs are actually pretty good, need to redraw her wearing the red one because yeeeees  

Some sketches figuring out how to draw Frisk, or at least their clothes, because I just love those overalls thingies whatever they are called, still pretty proud of that face actually

Ok next up two swap paps with like a month or so time in-between! because I thought it would be fun to compare the two or something, the one on the left is the older one, wearing that skeleton bra that I drew him wearing so long ago now, like back in January or something, just when I began here kind of something I think xD and to the right is a newer though still pretty old swap pap wearing a pair of swimming trunks with giraffes on, sketched it because of a imagine/headcanon I read that I really liked with how all the skeletons I think would do on the beach and what they would wear and stuff, can't remember who made it tho but I ended up never finishing it tho <: because I couldn't decide how to draw the giraffes hahaha! still I should totally like make a third sketch with him in this pose just to see if I have gotten better or not

And lastly is Underfell Gerson, who I suddenly wanted to draw ages ago xD because I remember I was all like "wait there is no Underfell Gerson? well let's change that!" and then pretty much immediately after I found some UF Gerson pics so yeah, I had written a bunch of ideas around him tho, mostly that he has a habit of breaking ppl's kneecaps with his big ass hammer and that he got a bad back and stuff xD

Anyhow that's all, enjoy 

[undertale-refuse]

REFUSE Backgrounds

Since I wasn’t able to make an update today, I’m pulling some background from older pages to post instead. Sorry, it’s not as nice and shiny as a page, and it’s not technically new content, but I get a lot of comments on my backgrounds so hopefully it’s at least a little better than nothing! Feel free to use these as wallpapers if you like.

(Image heavy post below.)

from pg 1 - basically just that page without the characters and text.

these are from page 2 - the underground exit (which…doesn’t look quite like it did in the game, whoops) & the house. that was the first time i drew the house before i made the model of it! i was still getting the hang of backgrounds then.

page 3 - my repaint of the final ending scene from the game. this took me almost a week to finish, lol. 

also from page 3 - one version with & without the campfire, because despite spending ages on it i still don’t love how it turned out. FUN FACT: whenever i have stars in this comic i use a real photo of the milky way. 1. i can’t paint skies well but 2. really i wanted them to really be under the real sky in the most concrete way possible. i use the same photo for all the skies and just play with the levels/smoothness/contrast/saturation/etc.

from pages 4 & 5 - i’m really only throwing these in here to show you how much better i get at them later, haha,

more night scenery. purple purple purple. i confess i was getting a bit sick of it by the end. by this time i had built my house model and could simply trace a shrunk-down version to make it accurate-looking from a distance. well worth the time sink, because as you can see the other houses look a bit crappy lol

stairs are my worst enemy. this piano took ages! i would have liked to have shown you all the version with plates and chars, but i put them on the “characters” layer and it would have been practically redrawing them to separate them out again.

told you i got better at these. for fun i cropped this second one a bit wide, see? you can see where the borders of the frame are because the dining room in the back ends and the sunlight on the piller behind the couch and the floor coming from the leftmost window does as well, as does the texture on the wall of the house outside. i try to draw the entire background under the characters with no shortcuts as best i can in case i need to reuse elements of it later, but sometimes i don’t get every detail.

more living room. these turned out nicely so why not throw them in too? im pretty sick of drawing this room, though.

this is a stock background i threw together to put behind open windows. nothing fancy but i can reuse it over and over and it keeps things quick and consistent.

another boring one - the tv on the back wall, from when frisk is facing the couch and the camera is facing frisk. i can flip this one as needed and even mirror it if i need an entire TV, and not just the side.

from page 14 - the creepy house frisk and chara are hellbent on avoiding. i was super pleased with how nicely this turned out AND how quickly i was able to get it done. and finally…

i know i did post this just last week, but i still think it’s my best background to date. also, this version has been spruced up and color corrected a tiny bit! i wonder if anyone found gaster without having to look at the masterlist…

anyway, that’s all i’ve got - 19 total! i’m sorry i didn’t have more for you guys this week. next week for sure, okay?
