Special Upcoming Stream, Lots of Art Projects, and the Stanley Parable Part 3!

A Special Upcoming Game Stream!

Guess what loyal patrons? I've decided to get another stream ready in the coming weeks! But it'll be different than any stream I've done in the past! This will be a gaming-centric stream!

I've had a new working computer system for about a very short while now. But in that short time I have observed smoother editing, and while I've only tested it out a little bit the gaming and recording functions not only run smoother, but I can also run the programs at higher qualities. So I decided to get a game stream ready to show off just how much better some of the future content is likely gonna look!

And there's more neat news......you guys get a chance at first pick for choosing what games I'll play!

I will be playing for a period of 6, 8, or 10 hours (haven't decided on how long to go). I'll play a game for a period of two hours, then switch to different one for another two hours. Partially I am doing this to show off my new setup and system, but also to hopefully get you guys engaged a little as well!

Now there are some games that my previous laptop could run fairly well (like Among Us, Simulacra 2, and Plague Inc.) however with this new computer I can try playing games that my previous one couldn't handle well or at all. I'm giving all my patrons the chance to suggest 2 games that they would like to see. Whichever two options have the most votes is what I will play for the first 2 sections (4 hours) of gaming before I start to ask the general audience for suggestions. The games I'd like to play, or continue, is as follows:

• Subnautica -- my sister will also be willing to participate
• Alien: Isolation -- it was offered for free on Steam recently and my sister suggested it
• Jurassic World: Evolution -- after playing and editing choppy episodes of this it's bound to look good
• Blair Witch -- I purchased this before I realized my old computer couldn't handle it....
• Rust -- this game interested me when I saw Mark, Bob, and Wade play it long ago
• Layers of Fear: Inheritance -- I've completed the main storyline....but there's another story
• World of Tanks -- can be fun from time to time I've come to realize
• Kholat -- I started this horror title a few years back because of the story's origin but the graphics were too advanced

I wish I could add Saints Row IV, Red Dead Redemption II, and Last of Us Part II on this list but my system cannot connect to the PS4.....so alas.

Quite a few of those listed are horror titles, not to mention some of these games you may have never seen on my channel before, but there are reasons for me presenting all these options. I want to show people how good these games run and stream. I especially want to experience for myself how much better these games run on my new system that I put a lot of patience and money into!

So go ahead and plug your 2 top picks into a comment and we'll see where this goes! The stream will likely take place on Sunday May 23, but perhaps the following weekend! We shall see, but get ready, because this gaming stream is definitely happening!!

Lots of Art Projects

What a variety of art projects I've been working on lately, and each for very different reasons!

Obviously, there's my Hunters comic as the most prominent project. I will admit to have fallen behind just a slight bit behind with finishing some of the comic pages ahead of time for patrons to view early. But hey, at least I'm getting the public releases on time! Still, I would like to get patrons as early of access as I can. This new page is already showing promise. My sister even mentioned liking some of the panels, and I loved what I did with Diala's dialogue. Even before this page would ever be finished, I knew exactly what to do with it, and also what to do with the next page. I get fired up thinking about how all these pages will go, you know!

There's also the art request from patron Joseph Bauer. He requested an Enchanted Forest piece. While he gave me some ideas which I took, I also added in some of my own Otterpop flair to start what I think will be a pretty fantastic piece! I've also been trying some new outlining and color tactics that are already starting to show some promise with the potential final result. Don't think I'll be putting the final result here though! That will belong solely to the requester for 2 months before I put it anywhere else!

After a random individual requested I draw some bush beans (aka mosscreeps) from the Hollow Knight game set, I eventually turned it into something a lot more with my Tranquil Bench final result. I received some feedback for improvement (the coloring and outlining I mentioned with the Enchanted Forest piece?) and asked my boyfriend, a huge player and fan of Hollow Knight, what to work on next. His suggestion? Deepnest, specifically Herrah's Den. I've been working on it occasionally, a piece I have dubbed Remembrance, and it's been hard! That being said, it's a fantastic challenge. I've decided to do more with Hollow Knight fanart in the future, and I've even decided to give the future series a title: The Vessel and the Vespid. Pretty sweet, no? If you're curious why I've decided to title it that just feel free to ask! But I put a lot of thought into it, and I think overall I will have a great deal of fun with the series.

I've also done a slight bit of work on one of my Hunters anthology art/video/music projects. Not much, but a little. And guess what? I'm planning on recording as much of the processes as I can so hopefully I can get videos sped up and edited for some early access! Digital art is not my strongest, but it is something I am trying to work on every now and then, and of course, it's the thought that counts.

Let's not forget the fanart work I was also doing for a while with Alpha Betas! I completed the fanart for my versions of Alpha Team, and have done some work with Charlie Team with plans for Delta Team! I still have hopes for this show you know, and I absolutely show my support for Alpha Betas and the YouTubers behind them! Besides.....if the show could kick off, and if it got a little successful they COULD add some other friends as characters into the show.......and come on! That would just be simply fantastic!

What else.....of course! I put together a little project I barely managed to finish by May 13th. A year ago on that day, I joined an art Discord server called Backseat Drawing and I am so thankful to that community, and especially the hosts for continuously remaining active with the server and its members. I've grown so much artistically, more so in the last year than the whole of the 10 years I've been drawing that I made this little piece of myself and the 4 hosts of BSD (Josh, Sarah, Eric, and Ali) to show how much them and their community means to me. It's just a little gift, but it means everything.

The Stanley Parable, Part 3!

I've still got a couple of old Stanley Parable videos to edit, and this was one of them! And boy did I have a fun and hilarious time with this particular playthrough! The Stanley Parable may not be the most exciting game but I've certainly had a fun time with it! Check out below if you'd like to see what I mean!
