It was pretty funny that Pat predicted Woolie would make fun of all the Ishgard names, but still! Love that goober Haurchefant. As well as a crack at a joke someone in chat said that Pat pointed out. Fun to go back to the OG Jo Guns fit for a dumb template. And finally... I might have to apologize for the last one. It was a sketch that went too far and by the time I thought, "this might be a terrible idea" I was almost done with the flats so why not finish it.

Not biased at all, being a dumb SAM main myself. It's such a good rotation, and I'm happy to see Woolie getting into it as well! I also did something last week while I was out on vacation, but didn't really want to bother making a separate post for it so here's that as well. >!As stated, I'll only consider moving forward on that one for the equivalent of like, ten orders of three bean burritos and a Baja Blast from Taco Bell. No onions, please.!<

Remember to keep your stuff up-to-date. I do think with some dyes, Jo Guns could make the Manor stuff work.

For Pat pre-empting the stream with "this is the worst part of ARR", there was plenty of content to be had with this latest stream. These are actually in opposite order of what I was drawing, fully expecting them to wait 'til next week for Haukke. But since I was already doing it, might as well make it now!

I tried doing another one of the Jojo dance poses, but just one was a lot. And I only used my own dumb character because felt off without a third person and she's fun to draw! There's also a bonus panel on the bluesky link about the opening vibes of each chat. I don't usually like getting meta but it was too good to pass up.

I don't usually want to do any double-dipping or anything like that since I'm focused on Jo Guns, but I had this idea watching the latest DS2 stream. And it was originally going to be a picture and a gif, but you apparently can't mix media in Bluesky. So figured I might as well go all the way with sfx and nonsense!

Pat finally accepts his Hrothgar nature thanks to the power of (tail)tucking. Though if you ask me, the bun was easier to draw.

Sure, it was only for the first ten minutes of the stream but that was enough of an excuse to draw bunny girls. I may not be Nonco but I still love 'em. Source (it's me!): https://bsky.app/profile/maelstromtear.bsky.social/post/3mpmsxupgsk2t

I really wanted to add some of the other people Pat was pointing out (Mothman, Simmsy) waiting in line behind, but getting a clean bitrate shot from a stream was harder than expected... So just assume they're offscreen! Just like a line of dead Blue Mages to the right for some reason.
