Your art style is so fun. What are your main inspirations? Also I need more Buttons in my life lol.
Thanks! I don't know, my friends? The artists I follow?
I've been strongly influenced by the early 2000s media I grew up with: Cartoon Network shows, Disney cartoons and Jamie Hewlett's Gorillaz art (first era). I like art with strong key poses and nice lineart.
More recently Venture Bros. falls into that category, I guess.
@galoogamelady im sorry to tag you but- butts could NOT wait another second to get his noodle fix in. This isn't even half a second after a fight. He's standing over a body. im dying laughing help. sir.... where did you find those noodles...
All your followers love Buttons. How did you make him so likeable? Is it the tired, dumb eyes? The rad hair? Big ol' nose?? He's all of us, but stronger. Help us.
I keep seeing adds for that new fallout movie or whatever and I’m forever disappointed when Buttons is not on the poster. What’s the point of fallout if I don’t get to see Buttons, yeah that’s it, l love him
On one hand, awww. On the other, I am not selling him (especially not to Amazon).
Saw this while brain empty scrolling and actually paused in confusion cause I totally thought it was Val. I was like girl huh what are you doing in a dental ad??
No pressure, but I hope you join blue sky one day. I miss following your twitter but that site is so radioactive now I'm safer drinking water around the atom bomb in megaton. I understand everybody was coming out with new sites every other day for a while there so I respect your decision to stay on the burning ship if you choose to. <3
I do have a bluesky! Just tired of posting everything to 200 different places all the time and not much was going on over there when I joined. So I guess I'm part of the problem for leaving instead of trying to make it into a place full of content...
But yeah unfortunately at this point I have too many twitter followers to jump that shi(t)p as a self-employed artist. I do lowkey hope it burns down.
Have you ever put Buttons in other game's character creators? What was the worst/funniest looking result?
I think his GTA Online model sucks ass - he looks like he would be someone's meathead cousin. Not nearly skinny enough, face too rounded. But I find him endearing at this point. Like maybe this is what he thinks he looks like.
The worst one I can think of was Dragon Age Inquisition. Holy shit that was bad.
If I know a CC can't handle him, I don't even try. This includes Red Dead Online (I gave up on that quickly) and Baldur's Gate 3.
GTA Meg and Fallout Meg are 2 different moods, yet they are somehow both very relatable... On the other hand, GTA and Fallout Buttons are both the same guy but one is more nastie, and I can respect that.
It’s not that one’s more nastie…
it’s that he’s got no impulse control.
Also that one’s homicidal and doesn’t cry about it at night.
(Sorry for all the dumbass posts, I gotta get these out of my system before con starts and normal people from real life™ start showing up here, wondering what the hell they’re doing on this trash heap of a blog.)
