I save all my Holy Waters for that single fight. If I find Shreds of Memories, all the better.

When did your obsession with hot toxic women begin?

My DD2 complaints:

- Waaaay too unforgiving if you lose even one hero
- No universal "Let's not do this event at all" option- I wrote to Red Hook about my lone Leper being all LEEROOOOOY JENKIIIIINS! at a Resistance
- Still smarting after my first encounter with the Exemplar, RH; thanks for asking

Find the trinket that boosts the Vestal's healing and spam Divine Comfort throughout every fight. It's why I had to stop playing.

It's been a time since I played it (DD2 is a much more polished game with moderated- if not gone- RNG in its engine) but yeah: protect the healer all the time, every time. Keep their stress below 50 and if they become Afflicted, GTFO.

I've beaten DD. Oh it's frustrating; I quit for a time after Trip #1 into the DD itself saw my Leper shuffled every turn* and I had to retreat- auto-killing the archer and losing legendary trinkets.

In fairness, the game tells you EVERYTHING. It's the RNG that's cruel.

* Ohhhh. "SHUFFLING" Horror.

I am leaning towards this game being my favorite fighting game ever. Lifehack: if James Goddard develops a fighter, buy it. Plus, y'know... HISAKO.🀘

Playing General RAAM in KILLER INSTINCT, likely due to an unexplained connection I feel towards tall guys in long dark coats who command swarms of thousands of small toothy monsters

Then they are not our concern. The people who DO care are.

I stress over trends and ever changing technology as well, but sticking to my guns has been my best and most proven strategy as a niche artist. Keep plugging away, and appreciative people will come. And keep them in your heart.

I've seen all manner of banned horror films and created numerous stomach-churning grotesqueries of my own, but nothing could have prepared me for the skin-crawling nausea of my employee accidentally leaving their vape on my office desk overnight

That's the cost of fan art. You get the keys to the car but you aren't guaranteed the original creator's savvy of the safest roads.

Plus, killing kids in ANY medium ALWAYS get a reaction. Spesh here in America, which venerates child safety COUGH-COUGH while bombing them COUGH.

Great piece, tho. πŸ™‚

Why stop your chemical chimera at caffeine, alcohol, and endorphins when you can stir in ketamine and adderall by getting Musk and Trump to sweat in it?

Today's fighting games feature brief barbs between fighters before a match starts. The Slashers in MY splatter fighting tabletop game do the same.

Thank you so much! I loved the miniatures in gaming magazines and decided to make my own. Self taught since the age of 4!

A large pipe cleaner figure I built of the Mothman of Point Pleasant. It is a insect-like humanoid with blue and black coloration, long antennae, piercing red eyes, spindly forearms, a brown underbell, and large bat wings. Its stinger can be seen.

A pipe cleaner figure I built of a Roper from Dungeons and Dragons. The Roper is a somewhat amorphous brown-yellow monster with six tentacles, a single eye, and a huge mouth. This figure has the mouth at the base of its trunk, surrounded by four tentacles, while its angry blue eye and two longer tentacles crane from a neck. It measures 3" (7.62 cm) high.

A pipe cleaner figure I built of Sadira, a playable character from the video game KILLER INSTINCT. Sadira is a Thai woman with yellow and red eyes, long hair, and blades on her wrists. She wears a burgundy hood, jewels, torn leggings, and a spider midriff. Web lines trail from her wrists. Her head and arms come off for AMPUTHEATRE combat, and she stands 3" (7.62 cm) high.

Congrats on 18K follows! Your excellent work deserves them all!

I'm The Gil-Monster, pipe cleaner horror artist. After twisting up a figure, I add paint, felt; etc. I make established characters, custom work (DM me), and OCs- such as for my splatter TTG #AMPUTHEATRE!
