     My interest in doing Homestuck fanart has waned over the past few months, but I will always have a soft spot for the exiles no matter what. So it is only natural that I do goofy exile art for an [[Explore]] arrangement! Even though I was seriously burned out on art in general when I did this, I think it turned out okay. Goofy, happy exiles always turn out okay!

     I actually did two pieces of potential art for this, both featuring Dave and Jade fighting Bec Noir, since it seemed appropriate for an intense boss tune featuring a theme associated with Jade. There was a duller version of this as well as a more comic bookish one. A panel of friends agreed that this one read better, but it was a little flat, so I started brightening it and tweaking it, but still wanted to convey '8-bit', so I started playing around with a square brush throwing in this Darwina-esque square noise, which I thought looked pretty cool. It has been remarked that Jade firing an assault rifle in the air in front of a volcano is metal as shit. That's probably my favourite commentary on the image.)

     Track Art for 'OhGodWhat Boss Battle Remix' by [[artist:kevin-grant|UWBW]] for Land of Fans and Music 3 (coming soon, I hope!!). Originally I drew this all with hard pixel edges:

-    ...but it wasn't really 'working'. It looked a little flat and also a bit blobby up close (something I didn't like about my artwork for [[track:amongst-smiling-faces|'Amongst Smiling Faces']] on [[album:sburb-ost|SburbOST]]), which would have taken a fair bit of fiddling close up to fix. So I got out some smooth brushes and smoothed up a lot of the lines and added some glowy effects to soften things and bump the contrast. That looked nicer, but then I felt the link to the chiptune feel of the piece of music was lost. I decided to do something Darwinia-esque, got out a square brush and threw in a lot of square noise.

     While I was feeling dissatsfied with the above image, before making those changes, I actually did a whole other piece of alternative track art though!

     The Wanderers is my favorite Homestuck album. Its focused premise, interesting takes on a theme, and general aesthetic all appeal to me. Not to mention the fact that it contains some of the best songs in the Homestuck discography. This song is not one of those.

     Speaking of bonuses, [[artist:noot]] did the art we used for this track. It was one of a few pieces of track art that weren't commissioned. I happened to be looking around for artists and saw this, and I already knew it was perfect.

     This was probably the most ambitious thing I have done in quite a while. WV's dream sequence was always incredibly interesting to me, and what it implied. I wonder when we'll get to see how he gets out of being blown the smitheroons.
 
     Here's hoping it isn't very long before that bit of exposition up there becomes HORRIBLY OUTDATED.
