Hello all!
I think this should do it for the lines. As you can tell, it's the three big guys, or as Transformers expert Maki calls them, sound cloud, stardust and mega man.

Otaking streamed for 6 hours in a row like a badass.
And never got his straws.
We still don't know what happened to them.
Big [F] for straws.
It's a quick one, but quite a bit of work went into it as you can see! It still needs colour, shading, and a shadow under the character to connect her visually to the floor.
I hope you're all ha...
It has been a bounty of streams lately!
I think I saw some of you there. Thanks again for joining me on my odd schedule. For those that couldn’t make it, here’s a summary of what I’ve b...

But only as reference! Don't worry - I'll always be a 2D guy!
For the current and future projects, I have all the sets and locations built in (rather crude) 3D, as you may know. I made 3D shi...
