'the Personifications' - Swearing - Final Video (w: Loud)

'the Personifications' - Swearing - final video (w: loud)

There was an old Game Grumps audio going around IG at one point, and our brain immediately started matching it up to the Personifications lot. So have a whole lot of swears.

bonus DJ (Sound), who's never actually seen:

get you a viera that looks like this:

'the Personifications' - Fortuna // 'Luck'

'O' Fortuna, Lady Luck. At least, she tells people she's the Personification of Luck, but the other gods know what she really is.

Some gods lay low whilst governing their jurisdictions, and then some run a highly-exclusive Las Vegas casino, run around in a copy of 39-year old middle aged man's body, and keep a collection of human workers who've lost their free will in a bet.

As one does.'

'the Personifications' - 'the Collection' Concepts

'Like moths to light, the Carousel Casino lures in the most powerful members of society: those who have it all, yet crave so much more.

They often find themselves surprised, intrigued, by what greets them: a colourless domain of shapes, patterns, and staff all dressed up in twisted, Venetian-esque costumes...

It's not until they catch her eye- Fortuna, Lady Luck- that they realise just exactly where people keep disappearing to.

Well, should they lose the gamble, that is.'

The psychological horror side of the Personifications is something so dear to our heart, and god is it so fun to design. Fortuna's 'Collection': a reminder that the Personifications are still Gods no matter what they look like.

Perhaps a controversial opinion, but having finally drawn the West-End Oompa Loompa...

Not a fan of the design that much.

The actual FX of the outfits are fantastic- that's such a Great way to get around the height issue- but their actual designs don't really stand out in a way you'd expect from an Oompa Loompa. 1971? Iconic. 2005? Very memorable. Musical? honestly quite forgettable. The same goes for the book too: despite CatCF being our lifetime special interest, I had to google it to remember what they looked like.

The musical feels like it tried to keep its designs closer to the book, but... maybe it shouldn't have? We love Quentin Blake's illustrations- an English treasure is he- but other than Willy Wonka himself, none of his CatCF designs are that memorable.

It might just be an unpopular personal opinion- although we did specialise in character design/concept art during our art degree, if that gives us any credibility- but sometimes, when the source material is lacking, it's better to diverge and play about and be inventive, than glue yourself to the idea of faithfulness.

when someone comes into your art request stream, and requests 'any Homestuck character'...

you best believe we're drawing her.
