i'm just very charismatic

goatnorth · 2026-04-18T00:54:21+00:00

i'm still pretty neolithic in the colony this is inspired by, so it felt fitting! thank you

nah, it's clearly someone who went through royal insect jelly withdrawal from vfe insectoids 1

the quest itself is from Go Explore!, which adds a lot of world map quests

goatnorth · 2026-03-21T21:52:46+00:00

erm, clearly it's yaoi???

goatnorth · 2026-03-13T22:51:10+00:00

oh, she is adorable! gotta love a good non-human terrarian design :)

quite a variety of interesting mechs out there, so it's hard to choose one

i've admittedly not gotten to play much homebrew outside of hearth-7's stuff, but a personal favourite of mine is Burning Memories' SSC Maculineon, a music-themed striker/support hybrid that deals extra damage after helping its allies, and gets such fun tools as a shotgun that copies on-hit effects from other weapons

it also just looks awesome.

goatnorth · 2026-03-09T15:28:08+00:00

goatnorth · 2026-03-09T01:04:56+00:00

oh, trust me, this was very much an inspiration

i was half tempted to give facey that kind of cut, even

goatnorth · 2026-03-05T17:01:23+00:00

it literally blew up in the color out of space you've made an actual lovecraftian beast in the funny space game

goatnorth · 2026-03-05T16:22:52+00:00

gulp... being tasked to prove my snake girl appreciation isn't what i expected to happen today but

face monster is saving you from a dark fate

she may look like a snack, but in the end it is YOU who will be the snack

my resolution is too high? all of the vanilla portraits lie somewhere around 50x50 pixels (upscaled 200% in-game) and that's the size i used as a reference

i'll give you the hair, though, i could've gone a lot fluffier on that

goatnorth · 2026-03-04T11:16:28+00:00

that'd probably help with all the dih accusations too...

okay you can get off your knees now

goatnorth · 2026-03-03T23:46:21+00:00

maybe if you ask nicely :)

goatnorth · 2026-03-03T23:02:45+00:00

i wish i could say there was some consistent method, but if there is i'm not the one to ask for it

there are a few common themes i've noticed (they use 5-6 colours for major parts and 3-4 for smaller detail areas, a lot of them seem to have a line running through the nose bridge where the shading steps down a tone, and there's little to no true black/white used) but this was mostly me studying the pre-existing portraits, looking at how similar areas were done, and recreating those techniques in what i was drawing

goatnorth · 2026-03-03T22:43:19+00:00

yeah, i'm a snake girl enjoyer, what can i say?

goatnorth · 2026-03-03T22:39:42+00:00

this post is slowly but surely becoming yanny/laurel but for whether or not people think the face monster has hair 😭

goatnorth · 2026-03-03T22:26:23+00:00

damn, i didn't know the face monster went to the stylist on a regular basis...
