Just another quick drawing session.

Daxter is so difficult to draw in his human form. I don't blame Naughty Dog for rarely drawing him in concept sketches and using his model for 2% of the entire TPL game.

For those that wish it, they may partake in the Bingo Card that is "Damas, please, your child has the zoomies again and he's downed like four barrels of cactus juice. I don't even know how he FOUND it, but he's covered in mud and jam and you are literally the only person who can calm him down!" And other such shenanigans.

Several bits were contributed by the other bugs in the Jar, and I honestly don't think this would have been as fun to make without them!

Please share with your friends! Do alone or as a group! Have fun with it!

Thinking about Samos and Jak's relationship. It's interesting that Samos is not a father figure to Jak, from either side's perspective. For one thing, Samos has a daughter who explicitly refers to him as her dad, while Jak never refers to Samos by any familial titles. And then there's the scene in Jak 3 where Jak tells Damas he never knew his father.

I like to think that at some point, Samos realizes that he is not fit to be Jak's sole guardian. Not only is he not equipped for it temperament-wise, he has conflicts of interest that mean he cannot be trusted to be the sole caretaker of Jak's well-being. Samos' first loyalty is to Haven, and knowing what he knows about the future, he's always going to be balancing what he needs from Jak against what Jak needs.

But it begs the question, how did Samos end up identifying as Jak's mentor but Keira's father, even though Jak was his first dependent? Samos arrived in the past with only Jak in tow—when and how did Keira appear in the picture? How did Jak feel about Keira being able to call Samos her dad, when he couldn't? How the hell did Daxter fit into this? I'd love to see how that drama went down.

Okay.

I originally screenshotted this to rant angrily to a friend before deleting it, but the more I think on it, the more I wanna address it.

I did not 'abandon' the community.

I was barely a part of it in the first place.

I loved and still love drawing and writting for it, but like most fandoms I get sucked into, I find the fandom has some major problems.

One, the underage fans. They invade any and all fandoms and make a lot of interactions very uncomfortable. And worse? The older folk do not moderate them at all.

Two, the absolute lack of support for content creators. Yall complain if we stop making things for you for free, but you don't actually tell us how much you like it in the first place. I've got bills to pay and so little free time, why would I spend it making content for a fandom that either reposts my work without credit or leaves a like and moves on?

Three, it's so damn difficult to talk to people in fandom spaces. I've made some awesome friends from fandoms over the years, but the obsession over OCs and self shipping buries a lot of other content. I *looove* OCs and I fully support self shipping, but I also wanna see actual content. I wanna see stuff of the characters from the fandom itself, not the OC a 14yo made to act as their stand-in to ship with 90% of the cast.

On the other hand, with certain fandoms, you have the opposite problem. OCs get ignored completely. You can put hours of effort into them, some fandoms look at OCs like they're scrap. Yet will look at 'unique' AUs of characters and go hogwild.

Additionally?

I just got married like a week ago. I've been busy af???

I left a lot of fandom discords because it was stressful and honestly on longer worth the heartache of working hours on a piece to have it ignored.

I will still make content, art and writting, but comments like this do not encourage one to want to.

[Edit] And another thing, because I'm still angry;

Do you not see the shit happening in the world rn???

I had planned to do so much art for the Jak2 anniversary, but then Oct7th happened and fanart mattered a whole lot less.

People are dying. Genocide is happening.
