A 1am Doodle :p I Feel Like It’s Been Awhile Since I’ve Drawn Suns

this guy in the ama gets it give him a raise PEBBLES IS WAY TOO MISUNDERSTOOD

I don't think pebbles is an "angsty teen" at all, and that downpour just wrote him kinda shittily. In vanilla he's a somewhat introverted guy who trying to explore ideas and research things considered taboo. He argues against the status quo not to be rebellious, but to try and open himself and others to different possibilities.

He's not constantly going on about how he's "misunderstood", he makes his arguments and he does it very effectively

It just sucks so badly because Pebbles isn't just some guy who's always an asshole.

He speaks to the slugcat with brutal honesty and authority. You're nothing but a bug to him, interrupting his work, but he spares a moment of his time to give you directions and the most assistance he can.

Yes he's very impatient, and can't properly communicate his emotions with Suns- who is probably not even prepared for it in the first place. His desperation and belief that he can just brute force this whole thing is what caused it. Not his arrogance. Not his disregard for Moon. Not because he's some angsty teen that needs to be disciplined

I'm so upset about how fanonized he is- ever since I stopped looking at downpour and just purely thought about vanilla, I've grown to love him so much

I'm not even trying to be a vanilla puritan, I think downpour did a good job at giving him actual interests, and dialogue unrelated to his emotions or other iterators all actually somewhat SOUND like him. Just wish they didn't treat him so terribly. That's a fucking grown ass man!

Five Pebbles, at work-

twitches my ear at you

past and present, looped together

art I made for my region mod!

yes I'm currently working on a region mod!! suntouched waterfall! it's not anywhere near done though sigh, anyway have this art of it

food for the sunstone shippers

they can fix eachother ( no they cannot )

sait

i love the idea of saint being some rabid evil(?) god rat, and they're very fun to draw like it

also this is a redraw of an old saint drawing I did soon after i first got into rainworld. it'll be below the cut.

here's the drawing, back when I gave slugcats their dumb flat oval face

I still love the way I did the eye lighting tho sigh

height chart!

I realised I haven't done one for things other than iterators so here!

pebbles is mad he's short.

I think my favorite aspects of the watcher (spoilers but you already went through all of it already. maybe tag this for ppl that haven't?? idk just covering the bases so I can say this) is the diversity of the locations coupled with all the new environmental aspects. Desolate Tract and Signal Spires are probably my favorite places. also. ROT VOID WORM. GENUINELY. HARMFUL TO MY PSYCHE HRJGAJAHZAGNGBGH. idk just dumping this here because I'm following you and I need to throw the afterthoughts of the rollercoaster at someone who has beaten it already. still trying to organize all my theories but holy moly is it insane

again obvs, WATCHER SPOILERS

like many others I have mixed opinions on the regions, some of the regions were absolutely stunning, some i liked were desolate track, rusted wrecks and outer rim. but some regions did feel a lot less peaceful as those ones, and I personally felt that some of the regions feel out of place. with the vanilla map you have context but in the watcher all you have is what you see right now. and I think this part of the watcher is brang down even more by the fact some of the spawns are awful, and how you are ACTUALLY clueless on where to go.

currently I think I have my big theories down rn, but yeah it's definitely A LOT to process through and think about

Does arti give the autism man pearls ?

autism man....

anyway yes she does, finding them gives her something to do in the city, and it's also part of the reason pebbles tolerates artificers repeated visits lol

he does also just get them from looking through old documents and data and putting that in pearls, a bit like people archiving lost media, as well as just getting them from others giving him their own stuff they've found

doodle to go with this!!
