Maelstromers making trouble.
#cyberpunk

Trio of Maelstrom gang members hanging on one-another, all heavily chromed with mismatched limbs. Woman in the middle wears a Tinnitus crop and plain bodysuit, cupping the chin of the man on left, who grins wide and manic. Ganger right and behind gestures wildly and rudely with both hands

Ye ye, Link should always be at least as weird as the rest of the Hylians. Both of these are great, I can't decide which I like better

Some sketches, proof I'm not dead.

Ashley V. @languidbrigand.bsky.social · Jul 1

I figured it out, + I don't know why I trusted Bluesky to not make an already *eh* photo of a pencil drawing anything but nearly indecipherable. Maybe these'll be better. #hylics

While I'm sorry to hear this, for many reasons not just for the sake of *getting more art*, I'm glad you recognized the need to do so for yourself! The age-comparison thing with art is so hard not to focus on, I'll admit as well. I wish you the best, truly!

More Split Head oc stuff. Giving the crass, rudimentary gesture. Very classy person. #Hylics #oc

Patches is one of those go-tos if I can't think of anything to draw. The perfect character. #Patchesthehyena #demon'ssouls #darksouls

Pencil sketch of Patches the Hyena from Demon's Souls, clad in rogues leathers. He's crouched with his head cocked, asking "... not a Cleric, are you?" To his new wonderful friend off screen

Wasn't 100% about this one, but I like parts of it. Still prefer the first Snosa I did tbh. #hylics #Somsnosa

Just a Somsnosa from Hylics, in blues, greens, and reds. She's lifting her cloak from underneath, showing a punchy gauntlet on the opposite hand. The cloak has subtle angled, squiggly texture throughout.

Just doodling npc heads, and throwing around some ideas for a Split Head OC I think? #hylics #oc ?

Ashley V. @languidbrigand.bsky.social · Jun 12

Thank you, I really appreciate that!

Ashley V. @languidbrigand.bsky.social · Jun 10

Much more within my Final Fantasy tastes, just all Black Mages. #wip #finalfantasy #finalfantasytactics Also yes the new MTG set is effecting my output. Somewhat.

Ashley V. @languidbrigand.bsky.social · Jun 9

Sephiroth is a creepo and I will draw him as such. I don't think I've ever drawn him previously in my entire life. Huh. #finalfantasy #ffvii

Sephiroth of Final Fantasy fame, looking very haggard, sharped or broken teeth in a crooked smirk. His long hair scatters everywhere, as he rests his sword blade on his left palm. His coat swirls about his calves a bit. He's probably saying something about the planet.

We got another update on Jonathan Joss’ murder in San Antonio. The SAPD are walkkng back on their statatement that his murder was not a hate crime. I’m glad the attention to this case is forcing the police department to investigate this as what it was. A hate crime. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

San Antonio police walk back statement dismissing possible hate crime in Jonathan Joss' murder

"Shouldn’t have done it. [It] was way too soon before we had real information, and I will own that," San Antonio Police Chief William P. McManus said Thursday.

My own take, to be clear

Ashley V. @languidbrigand.bsky.social · Jun 5

This sucks, this is a sucky take, and I'm furious. I just need that to be clear. I'm not complacent, just lacking the fervor in my words that are needed.

Been extremely pissed off about the Johnathan Joss situation the last couple of days, mostly for the injustice of it and also having to watch the media be so chickenshit about it.

The Serfs (youtube.com/theserfstv) @theserfstv.bsky.social · Jun 4

Jonathan Joss' husband Tristan has released another statement saying that donations to their old home GoFundMe are not needed at this time and would ask for everyone to direct their energy towards spreading the message about how he was in fact murdered in a hate crime

While I deeply appreciate the support from everyone I wanted to let you know that I have had a couple offers regarding covering expenses for a celebration of life. I have absolutely no plans yet on that but I will try to keep everyone updated. There’s not a need to donate to the gofundme. But I want everyone to remember the joy and love Jonathan has brought and will continue to bring forever. I have my essentials covered and our family in San Antonio is taking care of me until I get back to South Carolina. Instead of donating Jonathan and I would both rather you spread the word about the consistent injustice done to him, to us, and to our dogs. We had so many beautiful plans for the future.

I know, I don't know how something could be any more impossible to spin the way news sources do, but here we are, I shouldn't be surprised. I'm both glad that you have a human reaction, and deeply sorry for this reality, both for them, and anyone with a heart and conscience.

Everything is about an "argument" like it's some kind of neighborly dispute. Fucking hell, an animal's remains near a mailbox, on top of everything, is a fucking conscious, directed and straightup hateful message, call it what it is. It's a lynching, it's arson, it's a hate crime. Agreed.
