Propaganda under the cut
Rtas ‘Vadum X Thel ‘Vandam - Halo
They've been through some shit together.
Fangus Klot/Stranger – Oddworld (More Specifically, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath and Oddworld: The Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot)
Though Fangus Klot is a character from a cancelled game, it gives me (and a possible few) the freedom to imagine their dynamics! Would it be fluffy? Would it be angsty? Would there be tension? Who knows! But other than that freedom, their aesthetics go quite well (in my opinion) and so do their colors, too! The dark gold and green of Stranger compared to the dark grey and yellow of Fangus Klot. All and all, it works! (If not, considering this is a ship between a canon character and a cancelled one, then that's fine, too.)

Victory Spit
Yesterday, I finished my Stranger's Wrath playthrough I started 3 years ago. It was pretty much all I did yesterday, played from that Packrat Palooka boss to the end. I actually started from Jo'Momma boss a few days ago but didn't play for long since well, those two bosses after it were tiring... I almost gave up with the game but I decided to go on and I'm glad that I did! Those outlaw bosses after Packrat were a lot easier... The difficulty wasn't really linear; even killing that huge Sleg was harder (it seemed quite broken, the model was quite warped; I played on PC)...
But frankly, that outlaw part wasn't really my thing but I started to like the game much more after that reveal part, getting into fighting Wolvarks. I play like never shooter games but I still liked playing the game. Though, I actually found out that the best weapon is actually punching or I at least used it quite often and then just bagged the dudes...
But yeah, just felt like drawing these dudes since I finally finished the game, after 3 years... I have been thinking about drawing Stranger for a while but just didn't have enough inspiration or something for it. The photo ate the lil details I did but well, you can see the main stuff. Not my first Sekto but I felt like drawing them together, and my previous Sekto has kinda bothered me since it looks bad in my opinion... So, a good reason to try again. I had no idea how to draw them together but then it just came to my mind to draw Stranger spitting into Sekto's face since well, Stranger does that spit thing after defeating the outlaws... Idk, I just like to draw stupid silly things. I dunno how to draw these odd dudes but I tried my best. It's just that I don't personally feel like I draw well... But I gotta say some more stuff about the game:
I started to like Sekto more after finishing the game. I just really liked the way he talked and it made me laugh when he did the announcement where he said: 'Attention staff; you are expected to die on your job. No whimpering wussies. Your loyalty is appreciated.' I also liked those brutal 'no fishing' warnings.
I must say that I haven't really realized before how I enjoy stuff like this... Maybe it's the reason why I haven't really found Molluck evil... But I don't really tend to think if something is evil or not, just prefer to understand the reasons behind something since things are often complicated... Also, nothing is actually objective, not even algorithms. So yeah, there is no single truth.
Oh, and yes, I love those RuptureFarms barrels you can find in SW! It really made me feel happy to see them... I have joked that Abe's Oddysee's bad ending is actually the true ending in SW since there are Mudokon Pops in those barrels, so SW is actually from alternative timeline or whatever you call that stuff. What a great game. (Y) But yeah, still wouldn't really say that I become a fan of this game but I'll see if I feel like replaying this. Not saying that this was a bad game, no, I just enjoy those 'Abe games' more.
Oh, and I have been replaying some SoulStorm levels too this week, after like 2-3 years too... Yeah, haven't really touched the game for a few years but I did play thru it 3 times within a year, so yeah... I have played the bad and 'the true/good' ending but also finished the good ending on hard mode. That hard mode was more like just frustrating since the only difference I noticed was that the Sligs did like double damage... Getting the Muds alive thru bullet rain was kinda just about luck at that point (I'm pointing to that Slig Barracks level)... Oh, and one of those levels I replayed was of course the Blimp level! Man, it has made quite easy now, though it was never hard for me, could easily do that time trial door too, but I see the difference. I don't personally just get the hate the level has gotten... It's not a long ass level too, so I really like that thing. Some of those levels just take like 1½-2 hours to finish... It's not necessary a bad thing but well, it's at least a problem when you wish to replay them but don't feel like finishing them but would like to continue them later on since it won't save your progress like that, only if you are playing it for the first time... But I just wanted to say that maybe I also love that level because Molluck is kinda present there and yeah, I 'talk to him' while playing that level, doing my own commentary.
And talking about Molluck, I can say that on Wednesday (29th), I did do my Molluck sculpt! I have just have let him dry in peace since I did him from air-hardening clay I have had for many years... And yeah, I can confess that I didn't do a bust but a naked full body... My thirst for him just won, couldn't help myself. And I can say that it was the hardest Molluck thing I have done so far... I did it for about 12 hours without taking actual breaks, just ate as quickly as possible and so on. It was tough but I gave my everything to my baby boy! He is such a cutie and I love him a lot! I just need to add some clue to make him harder and paint him, and then I'll show him. Oh, and he did end up being bigger than I thought... He is lying on the ground and being about 35 cm long and 20 cm wide. So yeah, he ain't small but compared to the actual Molluck. But more about this after I show him!
Despite of this stuff, I have still kept feeling terrible, thinking that I should kms, but I'm still trying to go on, I even got this new sculpt to take care of; who else is gonna give him love if I'm gone... I kinda just wanted to make that sculpt seem affectionate, just to help myself feel loved. It's just so difficult for me to feel anything positive about myself... I feel so bad when I think about myself... I don't know how to get out of this feeling, I have had it for over a decade... I don't have much hope for myself but well, I'm trying.
Oh, and I wanna add that it's actually difficult for me to get into stories or get attached to any character... It feels like Molluck is even the first character whose story I have actually gotten into... So, he is actually something unique for me. When I play games, I tend to kinda ignore the story and just focus on the gameplay... I'm just bad at this stuff. I'm just saying that I have never been so attached to any character but to Molluck... So yeah, this is one of the reasons why he is so important to me. He is just my precious Gluk and I feel like giving my everything to him!❣️

Could you draw Sekto? Nothing in particular but maybe just chilling, being ok.
Everything is fine
His version of chill throughout the course of the game lol
I'll draw a better answer to your ask in the future when art block isnt kicking my ass.
Also this helps me keep it in my queue so it doesn't get deleted from lack of an answer.
