@whalekeeper yaaay Whaley you’re here!! And thx for the encouragement!

Also…yall…not me literally looking back and this old WIP and remember/really realizing…

I WROTE 50,000 words for this book….

This is the first (and maybe only) book I wrote 50,000 words for…

That’s…an accomplishment.

And at the point I was at when I did…[Read more]

@raxforge Whoa…that’s weird.

lol

as long as you pronounce my first name as Kayla (Keilah is the Spanish/Hebrew spelling cause I’m of Puerto Rican descent and my parents pulled it from the Bible) I don’t care how you pronounce the rest of it.

Oof the /aytch/ or /haytch/ debate.

I’ve always said it the first way but I don’t get into fights over it lol

Not sure why I had to say that. But it’s 10 at night and I’m tired and have no idea what I’m doing. So.

@raxforge So your voice is more Scout, less Sniper, got it.

(Scout’s the male new englander character of the squad. Huntress is his twin sister, and also the only character I created rather than pulling from the game series I based the world off of.)

I have a weird attachment to Australian accents. They can be subtle or they can be the most obvious thing, but I’ve found many of my favorite characters have one, even if I don’t realize it at first.

But ehh, I mean, I don’t know you except through a screen, so I’m not disappointed.

@raxforge you sound American then?

lol

Looking at it, I can see his shoulders are wonky and his arms aren’t quite posed right, but his little smirk and the way I did his talons make up for it for some reason.

And Sniper! hehe

I think he was one of the first ones I drew. I have far better drawings of him but I still love this one, it’s just something about it.

@rae lol I don’t mind posting old drawings, but only to a point. Before 2021 most were kinda cringey. There were a few gems though.

Anything TF2 related is from 2024 though so….

but anyway, here’s Demo with his wings spread and his sword in hand!

@rae AHAHAHAHAHAHA

That’s too funny.

My parents know I love to make creatures and honestly? They don’t mind. But my dad loves sci-fi books so that’s probably why. My brother thinks some of them are weird, but he loves others. He has his own, too, and they’re really cool.

They don’t know much about Soldier as a character (I haven’t shared the…[Read more]

My first drawing of him:

These drawings weren’t perfect, and I’m thinking of re-doing them, but I’m still proud of them. Especially Sniper’s and Demo’s, which I’ll show later if you want.

My own art lol. You can tell it’s significantly less quality, but I try.

This one shows him a little better, but not by too much.

his wings and tail are super hard to see here but ehhh

Same kinda vibe:

Scene doesn’t exactly have to be like this but here’s my brother’s current lock screen:

@rae lolll yes Soldier is definitely involved.

I’d love to see it! Bad drawing or not. I’m terrible at scenes too, don’t worry.

It was actually supposed to be the scene of them fighting the giant bread monster but just doing Soldier teleporting bread will be funny!

I’ll post some pics of him so you can have references.

I’ll have to get to that tomorrow or something.
