6 genuinely isn't bad, 5 is just better.

Plus it has the Virtua Fighter characters and they're fun as hell

I didn't think I'd ever get a commission of my two OCs doing a suplex but life is awesome sometimes

Here is my newest bit of animation, showing off Clear and Tay's revised outfits.

These are a lot of fun to do, but take quite a while (this took me roughly 12 hours), so I would appreciate it if people would share it.

I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.

Sidenote whenever I remember that story I feel bad for that guy getting judged for his genuine interests by someone he trusted but then I remember he tripped me during graduation rehearsal so fuck that guy actually

I've probably posted about it before but its such a funny illustration of how mainstream anime has become in America and that tons of people had to pretend they didn't like it for a hot minute

I'll never forget in high school when one of the popular kids started telling his girl that he liked anime and said that Sword Art Online was hype and her ick was so palpable he backed down on it

A decade later that girl makes Inuyasha paintings as a side hustle lmao

Think I've decided on her main look but I threw together a proper mobster look for her and it's kinda mogging the main imo

She always looks happier in her new clothes because she wears them at the end of her character arc

My friends and I went to both Belfast and Dublin in January of 2017 and just about every Irish person we met asked who we voted for and then tried to reassure us that someone would surely shoot the guy who won soon enough. We felt very comfortable and welcome, tbh.

What does it say about me that I beat Final Fight Streetwise but I couldn't play Urban Reign or Beat Down Fists of Vengeance for more than 30 minutes

I only lasted 22 minutes

I don't think it's the best battle theme in the whole franchise but dammit The Myth from Yakuza 4 is so fucking good

1. Jeez some people just hate other people having fun and are so pretentious about it goodness gracious

2. Pro wrestling is low-key incredible supplemental material for our current political climate and understanding how we got here

I'm pretty sure it actually would. A year or two ago I remember reading AAA game companies were basically praying for GTA 6 to drop and save the industry for them.

There's so much riding on it I feel like there's no way it doesn't come out, but I'm begging for it the shitshow would be so funny

Like I was not expecting to see a Terry Bogard model ported to a game and it's his fucking Fighting Layer model of all things
