Character Design And Giving Names - Tumblr Posts

I got somewhat emotional today

To be honest, when I joined for the first time the Art Fight of this year, I only expected myself to do the first attacks and get some kind defences or revenges, to hone my art skills and make some new friends in the process with any luck. But because of my sad situation with the computer that disables my tablet that I also used as screen, I can't do art properly. You don't know my surprise when I was checking my socials and I saw that someone made an "attack" on me on the website today, and when I saw what it was, I couldn't contain my tears.

Perhaps I'm a softie or something, but really, I didn't expect someone I barely knew to draw something for me without me doing the deed first 👉👈 And to top it all, as how things are going, it really is the first "fanart" I get of the characters of my AU, so the surprise was deeper for me, and I melted in the process, because it was not a single character but both of them in the same picture which is really optional but 🍏(hope you don't mind the ping @indecisive-vermin ) just made my day (or even my entire month) by drawing Spam and Sears together and... asdkjhfgkdajgfshfdgñ I don't know how to express my gratitude for that 💝

Because I'm waiting for the original author to post it on his blog first so that I can reblog it and give the credit accordingly, I can't upload it directly here. His style is loveable and colourful, a nice treat for the eyes 👁️

And well, bear in mind that all fanarts I receive of my AU will be featured in the gallery inside the game when it gets done. I'll reach to the authors by then to ask them for permission to be added to the game as special mentions.

And as for other updates, the tracker says the new PSU will arrive around the 10th, but I'm afraid that Customs will withhold it for a little longer because of the category of item and the price. I'll just have my fingers extra crossed that nothing blocks me from that replacement for this old computer.

Also, no news about our employer. The 3rd another test was requested and completed, but I believe because of the 4th of July, maybe we'll not get any news from them until next Monday. The waiting is killing us... like, we're awaiting for any response from the 3 employers to see if we're any lucky to land on any of them. Feels like we'll spend this weekend job hunting again because one should have always something in the backburner just in case the current 3 fails to contact us with a "YES U HIRED" by Monday. The interviews and the tests are long so, the quicker you get them done, the better. Man, being an 🦄 is hard in this industry...

But, PERSEVERE WE SHALL 🥊

Yesterday I got to ponder on the designs of the Tasquelings. What it's giving me a bit of headache is the design of their parlourmaid suits and how that will interface with their bodies -- if to give them the classic uniform like the Swatchlings has their own butler uniforms, or to give them something unique... I had a mind of adding a Roomba companion to them for floor cleaning, while the Tasqueling works on something else in the guests rooms. Should I add cat ears to the Roomba? Decisions decisions 🤔In a sense while encountering the Tasquelings you should "fight" against the Tasqueling and a Roomba. I think I should stylize the name of the Roomba because of copyrights... Purrmba? HAH, I think that fits if I add the cat ears to it 😁
