I didn't post anything yesterday because I was hanging out with my dear Ben and didn't get online much I KNOW. I KNOW. SHOCKING. Anyway I've got stuff for today!
Point and Click Collab! Ben and I watched a David Attenborough documentary on the deep ocean yesterday SO GUESS WHAT I STARTED DRAWING. The Deep Ocean part of the kory level is the first part, and Ssam's task is to find the bones of the Plesiosaur and put them back together. He has a couple that he has collected from other lands (IF ANYONE WANTS TO PUT SOME BONES IN THEIR WORLD I'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY. :D) but this mostly means that he has to dig around the ocean floor finding the stupid things. Most are underneath giant
isopods and
spider crabs that are munching on them, a few are found by rummaging around an
underwater lake of brine surrounded by a shore of mussels, and others are being coveted by things like
gulper eels,
dumbo octopus, and tube worms and ANYTHING ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THE OCEAN OKAY? I drew all these guys with little hearts or saying stupid stuff for funsies because i thought it was hilarious. HILARIOUS.
Ssam is pretty much alone for a lot of my level (I like the weird Myst-y sense it gives of trying to figure stuff out on your own with nobody to talk to), and while Lorna and whoever else I want to accompany him during the ocean level is around, she doesn't go beyond the Twilight Zone of the water, and since most of the bones are on the ocean floor in the dark, Ssam has to poke around by himself in the mostly barren and lonely sea floor with nothing but his flashlight (that somehow works underwater) and his own bio-luminescence on his tentacles (not drawn properly here BUT HE HAS IT. They're on the underside of his tentacles) to see and poke around. I imagine that this is how he meets his Bigfin Squid buddy, by just shining the flashlight around and then
BAM OH MY GOD JESUS CHRIST GET IN THE CAR. I love the deep ocean oh my god.
Also I got this:
I doodled this up a few days ago after getting back into the Beatles courtesy of that stupid
Rock Band Commercial (that I subsequently made into my new
new wallpapers for Sulu and Chekov and then I watched Yellow Sub a few times for good measure. I wanted to do something dynamic with cool perspective-y poses, and then I LOST ALL PATIENCE WITH IT and haven't touched it since. So it's up to you, dear watchers, to get me back in the mood to finish this picture YOU ALL ARE MY ONLY HOPE.
