Thing I Made In 2021 For What Would've Been Steve Waller's 70th Birthday. Credits On Albums Don't Really

Thing I made in 2021 for what would've been Steve Waller's 70th birthday. Credits on albums don't really go into the minutiae of what bit of what track who did what for so I can't quite be sure that he did what I'm about to say he did, but I've seen in live videos that he did guitar talkbox stuff, and he was Manfred Mann's Earth Band's guitarist when they recorded Angel Station so I at least have reason to believe that he was the one doing the really sick talkbox/guitar solo on Angels At My Gate, the title of which this drawing is inspired by. Not the lyrics. The lyrics are about being addicted to cards, which doesn't look as cool.

In 2019, an artist I followed on Newgrounds, called OutlawEric (though he went by idrawbutts at the time) presented the world with a fun little art challenge called Sprite Draw. On his website, at the still functioning link https://www.beaudu.com/spritedraw one would generate a random set of pixels and interpret them into a figure of some kind. Plenty of folks participated. I was one of them, and decided to do a whole five-by-five grid for some reason. Then in 2020 I decided to do it again, though I was the only one this time. This is the 2020 set, in the Cooler Daniel position next to the 2019 set.

I also decided to write lore for these as a fun creative challenge but I'm too proud of the formatting to post it without and I'd either have to go through the bother of re-exporting all of these with the little labels attached or post them separately, whereupon they wouldn't all fit into one post. The writing is also bad probably.

Tumblr Obliged Me Into Following Five Tags And I Picked Red Dwarf Under The Foolish Supposition That

Tumblr obliged me into following five tags and I picked Red Dwarf under the foolish supposition that such a choice would count among those likely to keep a feed unclogged but actually it's the only tag I'm being shown and I'm honestly very confused. Anyway I drew this in 2021 because the show was at it's 33-1/3rd anniversary and I wanted to do something about it at the time and with the onslaught of posts I feel obliged to contribute so here it is. The other squares would've had some villains but I ran out of time.

Too many arched eyebrows in this.

Eleonore Mordis Linden, a character who came about in response to the art prompt "Design a magical girl with an improbable/impractical weapon." So I went y'know what's real impractical and unwieldy? Impossible geometry. And decided to make her powers the Penrose steps. But not really because I thought them being circular looked nicer and the only way to do that (simply) is to essentially draw a turbine, the geometry of which is quite possible. I did start a different circular Penrose steps thing once that I'd conceptualised mathematically but then my laptop died and took that file with it before being brought back to life. Maybe one day.

Anyway I later decided on a name and personality, the latter of which I recently described as, "the type of person to ask you if it would be funny if she ate this entire ice cream in one go and then do it before you can respond." Then I did that redesign in the first image because my 2019 self didn't have a single clue how to design a magical girl. 2022 me is slightly better but gave her that disaster of a hairstyle that 2023 me has somewhat corrected.

2020 me would like you to see these projections from the making of that second image:

Plus the result of those, sans Eleonore:

With a mouse, too. Little guy was not acting normal.

Some old art and some moderately less old art of the same things for comparison. For an art challenge sort of.

All but the most recent one in Adobe Illustrator with the pen tool and a mouse, the most recent one in Affinity Designer with the pen tool and a mouse. It was never a good idea but I've invested too much and can no longer stop myself.
