Here, have some blind Spy. First bit of God knows how long a fic.
eeeee
Everyone on my Tumblr dash, PLEASE watch this. Especially if you are a creative artist:
Adobe is going to scrap their hard copies (disks) for their software (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, Flash), and have you pay a subscription for the latest software called the Adobe Creative Cloud. $50 per month. Could you really afford such an expense in the long run?
This is really disturbing. Please hear what he has to say, it really is a serious situation for working artists. Pass this along so others may know about the Adobe Creative Cloud and how horrible it is.
Yep… Just went to see how much Flash costs. You know, to just buy the program? Guess what? After spending a while looking, it appears that you CAN’T anymore. You have to pay an outrageous subscription fee. I hate adobe. Is there a petition going around to stop this nonsense? Because I want to sign it.
Thanks! I know a lot of artists and people who like art follow me. You guys should go sign that.
Today I just signed the petition in the voice against the Adobe Creative Cloud. For those who are not familiar with what the new Creative Cloud can do to you as an artist, I really suggest you watch this video.
For those who have seen, reblogged, faved, here’s the link (as shown in the previous reblog) to sign the petition. Anything can happen, Adobe really needs to know that many artists are not supportive of them controlling not just the software..but the content worked on the Cloud.
This is really important guys, for all artists
this is fuckign ridiculous
are you kidding adobe
ARTISTS, THIS IS RELEVANT
Welp, CS6 sucks balls imo, so no point in spending money on that. Guess I’ll just have to purchase painter if I ever need to switch programs…
It’s like Russia and Ukraine are birthing a child…
Aww thank you! Yes, the actual picture is rather large. It should have a click through link, but if not, go to my blog and click on the “hi res” link in the top left corner of the picture : )

Haha thank you very much! Well, I can’t tell you too much, but I was approached by the individual heading the project and asked if I wanted to take part in working on the update. However, there was one catch. Since they had ran across my art so late in the project, I only had about 4-5 days to produce and submit a finished product.
Of course, after some muffled, high pitched squealing I happily agreed, pushed my midterms aside and tried to do the best work that I could with the time allotted to me : )
My somewhat rushed, last minute submission for the update! I am sincerely grateful for having been asked to participate in this community created update. Thank you all!
You can find the update and gallery here:http://www.teamfortress.com/roboticboogaloo/
Update’s Here guys!
When we first launched the Workshop back in 2011, we had no idea what the TF2 community was capable of. As the hats, beards, boots and hairdos started rolling in, we realized there was a huge well of creativity out there. But we didn’t appreciate just how deep those waters ran until the community-made updates started appearing. Now we’ve finally gotten to the point where we’re able to shine a well-deserved spotlight on your efforts, starting with the Robotic Boogaloo Update, which includes 57 new items—the most community items we’ve ever shipped at once. Currently the items are only available in RoboCrates, which will become rare drops after June 3rd.
This update is 100% created by the TF2 community. And when we say everything, we mean everything—the in-game content, the update hub website, the animated short, the comic, even the splash images in the Steam store. Even better, everything you created avoided the classic trap of using other companies’ intellectual property. (Those of you working on a Darth Vader Pyro mask, we’ve got some bad news for you.) Plus, in a first for the Team Fortress economy, all the creators of the Robotic Boogaloo Update have decided to share the revenue earned from the sale of RoboCrate Keys. That means that everyone involved will be profiting from this update, not just the people making hats.
This doesn’t mark the end of Valve-produced TF2 updates, by the way. As far as we’re concerned, there’s plenty of room for both to happily co-exist. We’re in uncharted territory here, and it’s exciting to be exploring it with you. Amazing work, everyone!
It’s TF2’s first Entirely Community-Created Update!
There’s so much info about this update I can’t fit it all into one post without it cluttering everything up, so here have a link so you guys can go and explore it yourself!
gosh I’m so EXCITED AAAAAH

Hah! It’s finally here : )
It was a pleasure and honor to have been able to be a part of this, thank you Valve!

Just finals taking up a good chunk of my time atm heh
For lack of anything better to post, here’s some spoovy requests/doodles from my last livestream. Somehow it turned into a running gag. But really, who’s surprised?

Started out doodling, trying to learn how to use small amounts of black to bring out certain areas of a picture. Ended up spending way too much time on something I had no intentions of doing anything with…idek lol.
Sorry it’s taken me so long to answer this, but I’m very honored that my work manages to inspire you! And I thoroughly enjoyed playing, so thank you everyone!
Still, I feel an artist shouldn’t be inspiring just on the level of their skill, but also on the level of their drive. It’s always awe-inspiring to view really great artwork, but visibly seeing the improvement of an artist makes your mind wonder, of where you might be in a year with your own art :)
Rushed this one a bit, but I am tired of seeing this floating around my desktop. So, without further adieu, more Oni Spy.
