Cat's out the bag! I've been teasing this for a while now but today it's finally here:
A new png model I will be using for future streams is HERE! Been wanting to shake things up a bit, and a new P3 style portrait just felt fitting!

Amazing art by: https://t.co/K2RlbrcwkA

I've been throwing myself into soulsborne again to help get my mind off of a bunch of shit, it eventually bled into things i wanted to make art wise for a bit. Hope you like it I'll put the art station link in the comments and i'll post more of a breakdown later.

@hanromii no literally i think im gonna give myself like another month of saving so i can show the people around me i am capable of making money but after that if a switch 2 shaped hole shows up in my bank account it is what it is

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

making some money from a side thing (prob the most I've made in like the last 2 years so it's lowkey the main thing) and while i definitely should save up/spend on practical things the one thing constantly ringing in my head is '"pokopia and a switch 2 are only 200 dollars away"

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

anran beat the fuck out of juno and stole her bottom lashes

[Overwatch Cavalry @OWCavalry]

First Look at Anran in #Overwatch 🪭

What are your first impressions of this DPS hero? 💭

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

deadlock is fun when you arent going against the equivalent of 3 mundos on the enemy team

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

The majority of the characters from the last 2 drops being conventionally attractive (WHITE!!!) humanoids is actually fine when:
1) I find them hot
2) The game isn't Overwatch LMAO

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

i like seeing people use the new batch of deadlock characters as another opportunity to try and whack overwatch as if deadlock isn't also trending towards generally attractive humanoids with each major patch (and the game isnt even out yet!!!!)

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

Moral of the story is don't go on Artstation after a long hiatus and look at the highly skilled professionals that followed you and gave you the time of day it just might make you want to splurge your feelings on Twitter 🥴

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

Been basically half a year since I've decided to highkey give up on game dev and while it's for the better and I'm doing much better than I was for the past 4 years I can't help but feel a little sad

[Derek, Hanging in There @_Dechta]

I've made great friends due to game dev and gotten to interact with and be acknowledged by some amazing artists. In that sense, I don't regret much. Frankly this is the best thing I've done for my mental. However, it'll always be a little bittersweet
