your art really inspires me!!! in a few ways. i'm really in love with your use of shapes and lines, its so nice in a really particular way that resonates with how i want my art to be, and its ALSO really inspiring to see you just. post your own ocs and draw them over and over as much as you want, its so cool. at times ive felt a bit weird about how my main creative drive is often just about my little guys that nobody actually knows- but thats the same thing as anyone whose ever written an amazing story, isnt it? freedom and peace and light on planet earth 😌☀️⭐️

That's such a lovely thing to say, thank you!

But if I'm being honest, and I've mentioned this before, I've also felt weird, embarrassed and guilty about being obsessed with my characters and wanting to draw them over and over again. Somewhere along the line I got really nervous and cautious about sharing any oc content, I didn't want to talk about their lore/stories/backgrounds publicly and I tried to draw them only as a treat between other works. I guess I just thought people were finding them tiring and unrelatable (despite there being no evidence to support that) and that I was being selfish for drawing my own characters so much. I also believed that if I wanted to be a proper artist and develope my skills, I should be making art that looked "frameable", stuff that I could potentially present to people irl. I'm very proud of those pieces but making them didn't feel as creatively and emotionally fulfilling as making character art always is.

Around last May however, after a bad six month art block or so, I just thought I'd be properly self-indulgent for once and draw Machete as much as I liked. Vasco joined him about a month later. And I've been having such good time doodling them, I've been more inspired and productive during this summer and fall than in past five or six years combined. I'm delighted to see how liked they are, and the support and interest they receive continue to fuel my fixation ;_; <3

[crabbbage]

GUESS WHO WON THIRD LIFE :D

Recent grian cosplay for Ozcon!

@sleepyyghostt for the crocheted scar and bdubs!

[m0ther-of-p3arl]

i have crocheted a three foot tall owengejuicetv

what is my life

this was heavily inspired by @sleepyyghostt's goodtimeswithscar plushie, and id absolutely reccommend checking it out as its what gave me the idea to do the same but for owen's skin :D

if u want to do this urself for a diff skin, i would totally recommend it!! it's super easy but if you need some help getting started or assembling the plushie, this website is a massive help.

[orimar-vale]

tempted to try to make my own little minecraft guys based on @sleepyyghostt's guys. i haven't crocheted in ages, but honest to god, i think it's be so good to have a little tango doll... for my health

[notahorseindisguise]

followed each other on tumblr two days ago and met in person today everyone say hi to new friend @sleepyyghostt

[bean-there-done-that]

EXCUSE ME WHAT!?!?!?!

@sleepyyghostt

Hi I was today years old when I realized some people truly don’t have to think about every single thing they do. They don’t have to have an imaginary set of rules (I’m not allowed to put on my bra until I’ve brushed my teeth) to function.

[borealopelta]

hhi for the love of god hello i was talking to friend irl about gloryhammer today and. keep in mind she is Prime Candidate to inflict with gloryhammer brainrot. but she has ANOTHER friend i haven't yet met who also likes the band. and she was like,'yesterday my friend showed me this powerpoint someone posted on reddit' and i asked her to describe it and REALISED IMMEDIATELY THAT IT WAS YOUR ONE. I WAS PLANNING ON SHOWING IT TO HER SOMETIME. SOMEONE ELSE BEAT ME TO IT. WAITi just found the original post and its got like 100 upvotes HOW IN THE HELL

AHAHAHA THE BRAINROT SPREADS ETERNALLY ‼️

no fr how it got popular is basically just. i posted at high activity time, people like having a shortcut for Explaining The Lore (useful -> lots of interaction) and also. not to sound conceited but i'm funny as fuck and the powerpoint is entertaining. i'm over the moon about its reception (people linking it under lore question posts! not even me! other people! people showing it to their friends!!!!!😭) it's a dream come true for little old me (looove explaining stuff in fun ways) especially with how much work (A LOT) went into it. i'm sorry someone else got around to indoctrinating your buddy but hey at least they have taste sgfhfjkdl

wait??? how did you (almost) end up in a mrbeast video?? :O

ohmygosh okay so

with my good old lifelong youtube special interest, i had a period where i was just FASCINATED by all the actual workings behind the various mrbeast channels (and the story of how he got there), particularly mrbeast gaming (which was basically just minecraft videos)

and- ok this might just turn into an infodump for a sec cause i find the operations of it rlly interesting sdfsdk. i had a wonderful rabbit hole week where i watched a ton of videos from the perspectives of ppl who were actually in those challenges, which led me to find out about the mrbeast gaming discord server...

A monstrous thing with 60,000 members and zero channels you can talk in (thank god). It took a while to even JOIN cause it was always at member limit.

The whole thing basically got nuked last year and reformed into some sort of fortnite thing that ive never quite looked at since, but the way it worked was members would fill out a google form with their discord info, and anytime they needed people for a video they'd use some kind of bot that randomly selected a bunch of those form submissions, and checked them against people whose discord accounts were currently online. those accounts would be given a role that let them into some extra discord channels that held the relevant details for whatever the event was.

I joined the server, filled out the thing, and months later, ACTUALLY GOT SELECTED

a couple hundred people, if i recall correctly, had been as well, and the mods announced they were going to hold interviews over a couple hour period later that week, looking for people to be in a future unspecified video.

the odds of me having even gotten to this were crazy so i was already hyped, but i kept my hopes low just to manage it all sbjdhf

The interviews were done in five voice chats, with enough room for one player and a mod. someone would join, get interviewed, then leave the call, then there was a split second opportunity to click on that call with just the right timing as a hundred other people tried to do the same.

somehow, i got in one! i was interviewed by a guy called brethoodie, who was the actual head of mrbeast gaming behind the scenes?? I think??? and like-it actually went super well. we were vibing and it was just a really nice conversation tbh. he had a question they asked like 'if you won 100k and had to spend it on something for urself (rather than donate it, pay off debt, all the other realistic but generic responses), what would you do?' and i thought abt it and realised that in this fantasy land, i'd go all out crazy on materials for some kind of massive art project or sculpture type creation, and he said that was one of the most interesting responses he'd had!!

after that i continued to watch the voice channels and i realised that at the rate they went, they really couldve only interviewed like. i dunno. 20-40 people max? so i was feeling PRETTY good about my chances. he said theyd get back to me in a week or two if i'm in, but I just never heard anything back.

which was like, fine? was disappointed ofc but like. Oh Well. it was an interesting time regardless

a couple months later a video came out, i figure this was the one they'd been working on so i have a look and...

thats

well, that's not me. but it is someone with a STRIKINGLY similar username to the sleepyyghostt that i am

Now, its perfectly possible that i just simply didn't get picked. but a part of me..... like really wonders if they got the usernames mixed up somewhere along the line. like maybe the hoodie guy was like, oh who was that person i talked to, sleepy something? (grabs a different sleepy someone) You!

or maybe, they just picked other people. which is fine! i just.. i told this whole story to my friend a couple weeks ago and they were INSISTENT that they totally meant to pick me and my conspiracy theory was correct x_x

either way!!!!! an interesting story!!!
