Day 27 Done! Today Is Everyone's Favorite Knight, Who I Imagine As Having Griffon Features. Since Griffons

Day 28 done! I couldn't decide which of the many friends of Hermitcraft I wanted to draw, so I just fit as many as I could into today's square. If it wasn't clear from the rest of this month's drawings, all of my hermit-a-day pieces are part of a big grid of 2 in x 2.5 in boxes. I figured having boxes ready to fill in, plus a small size that limited how much detail I could add, would make it easier to actually complete the whole month. And it worked!

Day 6 done! Despite being one of the first hermits I watched, I still don't have a proper design for Mumbo. Still not quite happy with his face shape, but I like how the hair turned out. Don't ask why he's got pointed ears, I have no headcanons and just thought they looked nice

Day 14 done! One of my friends wanted a drawing of Lizzie, so I thought this lovely couple would be perfect for the group/collab prompt. Drawing this was so nice, I mimic the expressions as I draw and I was smiling the whole time. A note on the designs: they are both some kind of fairy with insect features. Joel is based on a dogbane beetle, while Lizzie is an orchid mantis!

Day 9 done! Outfit swap was such a fun idea, and it was a challenge to choose which hermits to swap. I eventually realized that Cleo would absolutely rock a suit, while Skizz has enough goofy 80s energy to match Cleo's over-the-top workout gear. My only regret is that I couldn't do this in color!

In case anyone isn't up to date with #FixTF2 and the issues the protest is focusing on, here is a comprehensive document you can read.

It has the personal testimony of one of the bothosters' victims who was swatted, MegaScatterBomb, a guy who is working on an anticheat to use in casual mode.

The bothosters and their lackeys have committed and condoned crimes that hurt people IRL, while scamming desperate players with "bot immunity" and spamming links that they brag about containing CP. They customize their Objectors to have gore on them. They have tried to funnel the anger of the playerbase on innocent, uninvolved parties and impersonated a number of TF2 players to divert attention away from the real bothosters. Recently they tried to take down the save.tf site by unlawfully impersonating Valve in order to file a DMCA.

They are allowed to conduct this sort of behavior with no consequences while Valve is still making money off the game.

#FixTF2 is not asking for more content, they are asking for security measures. People are getting doxxed just for critiquing bothosters. TF2 isn't the only game on Steam which suffers from lack of proper regulation, either. If people are supposed to spend money on your product, this product should work properly and you shouldn't be risking your personal information just from using it!

Please sign the petition on save.tf (they are aiming for 300k signatures) and spread word of #FixTF2. As a regular player and a big fan of the game, I think this is worth trying rather than just rolling over. Valve profits from this mess, refusing to openly communicate with the playerbase, fix their game nor simply shut it down. Let them know this is unacceptable.

To keep up with the developments and to know more, a good account to follow on twitter is the guy who called the fandom to action in the first place this year, Weezy. He has a youtube too, with informative videos on the matter. Shork is likewise updating on the situation.

Day 10 done! She many be a day late, but that doesn't stop her from being god's favorite princess. This is another drawing that I wish was in color, because the color pallet of Gem's season 10 skin is so pretty

Another Trimax redraw! This time of my favorite panel from Ch. 83. I'm fond of that chapter because the moment Livio committed to the cowboy aesthetic was the moment he became my favorite character

(please ignore the awful signature, I really need to make a proper watermark before I post anything else)

Day 12 done! I'm not sure why my Pearl design has hidden eyes. Maybe to fit her mysterious yet silly persona? It's definitely not because I couldn't figure out how to draw her eyes

DC focuses way too much on Batman and Batman adjacent characters, to the point where I think it’s actually detrimental to the story.

One example is DC vs Vampires, where for six issues (half of the entire series), Hal Jordan was the primary antagonist we were following. Then at issue six he gets taken out weirdly easily (can writers please stop cutting off limbs so easily, bone is not a cardboard tube) and replaced with the completely new villain of Nightwing. At this point sure he’s a character that we’ve seen around, but there’s not that connection due to the whole build up with Hal. If they wanted Nightwing to be the big bad hidden in the shadows they still could have done that without getting rid of the character we were following the entire time. Then they go and make it so some vampires can defy Nightwing, but not Hal who canonically has the strongest will? Like they literally set it up for him to take out Nightwing and take his place, and they wouldn’t even have to make up a random alien blood plot point to make him immune to the usual vampire weaknesses. But instead the entire plot is reliant on the Batman characters despite it being DC vs Vampires. Plus they made Harley the linchpin because she’s toxic to them (despite them eating the Joker just fine), and plenty of other characters could easily be toxic, ie metamorpho, but they had to go with her because she’s gotta be put in everything like the rest of the Batman characters.

Day 24 done! Behold...the Juppet
