LOOK AT ALL THE FUCKS I GIVE 8D
GUYS. I ARTED.
Escargoancitizen: Ven! Push me! We have to go do justice!
Hermitcrabthenian: For the last time, throwing water balloons at hipsters is not “doing justice…” even though it is really fun…
Mala and I were talking, and we decided that I should draw Escargoancitizen as Kyle’s favorite superhero. I was informed by Ven that this superhero was Professor X. Much harder than drawing a cape.
And no, I didn’t draw all of Hermitcrabthenian. I’m not an artist.
Also, I’m sorry it’s sideways! I’ve tried everything when it comes to rotating it, and it won’t do it. D:
“You know what would be cool? If Oancitizen did a season-by-season retrospective of The West Wing the way Linkara’s doing with Power Rangers.”
Or The Wire. Either one.
He’d probably more likely do The Wire, as he’s obsessed with it.
Also, that’s a really good photo of him.
“I’ve been considering doing some digital paintings of some of my favourite TGWTG members so that I can practice with my tablet and make some cool fanart, but I’m too worried. I can just imagine them stumbling across them and thinking I’m some creepy fangirl, especially since most of them would be male.”
(Posting right the fuck now, fuck the queue, because your paranoia can go fuck itself. You do it, woman, man, person, whoever you are. You do it now. I order you to proceed with this. I will not rest until you get over your stupid fear because TGWTG fanart in that style, even when it looks like the Brad picture from Questionable TGWTG Art, is my absolute favorite. Hell, you might end up being better at it than me! -Mosu)
You know, the way I got a gig as a title card artist was by doing a CRAPLOAD of TGWTG fan art. And not just random vanilla fanart… I had a whole series of TGWTG people with (or sometimes AS) otters, for absolutely no reason. And then I started advertising my willingness to take commissions for people’s TGWTG porn art, because I didn’t have a job and I needed the cash.
I’ve drawn some incredibly… unusual… and graphic… shit for people. I’m pretty sure there are probably still assholes out there who call me “the perverted artist” because of that, even though I haven’t done it in quite some time. The producers don’t exactly seek out the more graphic stuff. And just doing regular… PG-13 or lower rated stuff? PFF. That’s nothing but a good way to get higher hit counts on DevArt. The only way to get on anyone’s bad side doing that is to flood the DevArt community with REALLY REALLY BAD art, stuff made with online dollmakers, or blatant plagiarism.
Anon, if you want to do digital paintings of TGWTG people, I’d love to see them. Go for it! :)
The Fibonacci sequence showed mathematically, and in a moderately understandable way for the first time in modern history, the essence of the mystery of Sacred Geometry: the spiral that connects here and there, reconciling the paradox of the energies of Creation, Destruction and Existence. Those who know, understand; those who do not must seek.
Whenever I see spirals in nature in the form of shells, etc., I always just think to myself “patterns and math are all present in nature.. damn”
Maaaalaaaaaa
Veeeeeeeeen
YOU CANNOT ESCAPE IT. EVER.

“When looking at the 4th year anniversary signed photo for sale, I saw that the description in the Channel Awesome store read, “This will most likely be the last anniversary on this scale, so it could be your last chance to get a nearly full CA group autographed image.” This really made me sad…
New media is an ever-evolving thing. Web-based review shows aren’t a genre that can be as timeless as the Godfather movies or Citizen Kane. People who want to be successful in new media need to evolve with viewer trends. If viewer trends mean they can’t fund a movie on the scale people expect and still make a profit, the project needs to be dropped or reworked. It’s that simple.
But FFS, TGWTG isn’t going anywhere. Not any time soon. The potential audience there is still MASSIVE by any calculation and that many people are NOT going away any time soon. The site still makes money because people go there to find stuff to watch from many different producers, talking about many different subjects. That formula will last longer than any individual show or reviewer will. So don’t worry about that.
Linkara has been watching us the whole time.
For some people, this is worse than Benedict finding their blog.
I was gonna say Oancitizen is looking at my blog and judging me, but then I remembered that Ven is doing that for him. So cries.
Actually he’s doing it a lot more effectively and consistently than I am. I only just figured out that tumblr has a search function. Mostly I just rely on my designated tumblr spies to tell me when anything of importance happens on here.
Also, guess which review is coming up this weekend?
Escargoancitizen by Ven.
That’s not the art for the title card. That’s just something I drew to troll Kyle while we were watching Game of Thrones. XD But you are correct about which episode is being posted this weekend. ^_^
(401): Eberyones makin fun of me cuz I found a snail and caught him and put him in a bocks for u
I swear, if my kitten could text, this is something she would send Kyle.

I’m really happy all you shippers out there got to see your dreams come true, but unfortunately I cannot join in your joyfest other than to say “Woah, dude! That’s awesome for ya!”
… I can’t even bring myself to watch the video.
It makes me that uncomfortable.
… And for some reason, that makes me feel really bad.
However… if, one day, Kyle dons a pair of eyestalks and Ven gets some claw hands to wear, I would watch the SHIT out of a live action Escargoancitizen and Friends. XD
You know, I collect Folkmanis puppets. It’s really a sin that I don’t have a crab or a snail yet…. ;)
I also make my own puppets that work from a lifesized marionette rig I built in my basement. Someday, I will make this happen. XD
