i felt like drawing him even though i havent really listened to tmbg in a while

theres just something really adorable about flans... ok?

theyre siblings btw! i dont know why but i feel like if these two albums were people they would be twins. maybe its because they both released in the same year?

im really proud of the cc gijinka (though i feel like the ponytail is a little extra) but i feel like the lfthcs one could use a bit of work. if anyone has any suggestions for what i could change on kendall the next time i draw him please tell me! thank you

dont pay too much attention to hazels right arm... she can just do that okay? i dont know. it looks unnatural to me

if you have any questions about them ask away!

yeah

i apologize if the handwriting is really messy. i SWEAR on my entire ancestry that i attempted to make it look as best as i could

also, uhh... i apologize for the lack of modern lemon demon representation. but i mean to be fair, a live from the haunted candle shop fan made this... i did try though!

i dont really like that outfit i drew at the leftmost part of the first image. i think its very messy in general but my biggest complaints are the roller skates (which dont get me wrong i do believe are unique) and the headphones. sure, i could go ahead and tweak those two things, but im not really sure what i would replace them with in case i did. i think the roller skates could be replaced with work boots, but that would just make the character all the less unique in my opinion. ill probably just draw the design of him without clothes on more frequently in the future

im also somewhat dissatisfied with all the character info on the right. again, because i feel like the modern ld rep is scarce. though in my defense, i pretty much only listen to the stuff that came out before dinosaurchestra

i hope you all like it regardless!

oh yeah, you can draw him if you want to, i guess...

crazy how this game is 32 already

anyhow i drew this back in july and waited for the right moment to post it. i dont know why i drew it so soon. maybe it was because i had a super cool idea and had to draw it instantly. perhaps i do know why after all. oh well whatever

stupid text had to cover 4 of the sanctuary guardians just to fit it in

its crazy how much this game influenced me as a person, really. if id never gotten into it i most likely wouldnt be who i am right now. what makes me really happy is that the game that defined me the most as a person will never go away and i can just play it whenever i please

so yeah its sort of insane how my personality is in great part centered around a game that came out 32 years ago

anyways yeah i have nothing else to say

i drew this entire thing on one layer. i think it looks good

nothing too Outrageous or interesting going on in here imo just a redraw of the gfys album cover in my art style. also this is my first time drawing oingo boingo fanart after being a fan for several months shockingly

last night before going to bed i randomly thought of drawing this so i sketched it out and well... ended up finishing it for real the next day

getting neils style somewhat right was definitely challenging but i think i did well

i have a feeling that if id tried i couldve come up with a funny or witty name for this album parody thing but apparently the grey matter was scarce and the neurons werent firing all that well so i ended up just leaving it as live from the haunted candle shop. not sure if i will end up changing it eventually

to be honest i wouldve given this crossover album thing a funny or clever name relating to earthbound but unfortunately my mind was a complete blank. so now youre just getting an altered version of the live from the haunted candle shop cover. i hope you guys enjoy it regardless

i would say getting the drawing to feel like the actual album cover was certainly a challenge. neils style is just far too unique. i do think i did a fairly good job though

in case youre unfamiliar with earthbound, the characters depicted here are buzz buzz (the beetle) and two starmen

no idea if this counts as low effort or if im breaking the rules in any other sort of way. if i am well i apologize. i dont really post here all that much anymore anyways. i just thought this would be fun to share

i dunno if anyone else sees my vision but like i can ABSOLUTELY see this guy being in earthbound (but like just mother 2 specifically. MAYBE mother 3 but it doesnt feel nearly as convincing as mother 2 imo)

i can DEFINITELY see this guy giving me headaches at the department store >!during the power outage!< or in moonside or even in magicant. i dunno this album cover just looks like it would fit well right into any of those parts

now this begs the question (for any lemon demon fans who may be lurking this sub): were emmy or neil cicierega inspired by earthbound to any extent while designing this album cover or is it just me imagining things? like i know the answer is probably going to be the latter but it would be super cool if, you know, they actually did draw inspiration from earthbound though it wouldnt entirely surprise me because just look at that pillow. it just looks like it would fit right in with any other enemy

this was both extremely fun and extremely unfun to draw

not just from the entire franchise but from fiction in general

all of the art belongs to me and was done over the course of may-july

also i think i might start posting in this account more frequently because yep
