The Joeuppet sits on the "spirit board" image from the last page of Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, surrounded by a set of black, galaxy-like polyhedral dice, that i think look a bit like end gateways. if you squint. the lighting and shadows are slightly ominous

a screenshot from Joe Hills' hermitcraft 9 episode 91 of his pinball machine, with a slightly transparent Joeuppet superimposed over the bottom left corner. The Joeuppet's glasses and shirt have been chroma-keyed out, mimicking the style of Joe's livestream facecam.

WOE! JOEUPPET BE UPON YE!

so a few weeks ago now I realized I had the right colours of fabric to make a joeuppet, and i really really like the Joeuppet :DD! so i made one! look! i can even puppet it! :DD

I actually finished it on monday, but taking the photos (i used my school's photo room for this! :DD) and writing the poem (its called sewing btw) and stuff took a bit of time. also I had to rewrite this post because tumblr deleted the draft instead of posting it.

I really enjoyed working on this. i went into it with very little planning, and it truly felt like i was just making something for the sake of making, and save for a couple moments (puppet shoes are a nightmare) this was pure fun.

anyways, as thanks for clicking read more, have some bonus pictures taken from last week's TCG meetup of the not-quite-finished Joeuppet (its head is held on by a sewing needle—not even a pin, a sewing needle!) with my friend @kannaar's teeny tiny plushy cleo

a tcg match between the Joeuppet and a Teeny Tiny Plushy Cleo, looking over the Joeuppet's shoulder

(special thanks as well to my fine MCNN friends for being just as excited over the discord joeuppetdates as i was to be sending them, and keeping me from spiraling over sewing hands and shoes)
