I love it when bands do acoustic versions of things. Though, Sum 41 has a tendency to make them Japanese bonus tracks, so I just earlier discovered the existence of this.

To the point:

The other day I had a thought; how long has it been since I've made artwork for the sake of making artwork?

See, I usually do artwork for a reason; either art for a game or art to pass the time. The last time I actually put effort into making an image for the sake of making an image was that watercolor painting I posted a while back.

So I set out to make a composition for a pixel art drawing, which started by doodling ideas in my Nutrition class.

The composition originally had nudity planned.

I considered the implications of this, but then I realized something.

I keep forgetting that lately.

Anyways, I ended up making two variations, one with nudity and one without. Though, the clothes I added are quite obviously an afterthought, so I don't like that one nearly as much.

These are they:

Original (nudity)

SFW version

And yeah, that's the chick from my class-doodles.

So what do you think?

I'm actually proud of these, which I usually never say about anything I do.

Also, I made a new music track with the intention of it being not video-game music, and instead being music to listen to. I didn't quite achieve that intention, but I feel like I got at least half-way there.

Some of you already heard it, I wanted to reply to your comments but I couldn't figure out how to make an untimed, reply comment.

Part of the reason I made a second version of the drawing is that I was toying with the idea of using it as album artwork for some future musical compositions, and I figured that nudity would be unwarranted in that scenario because I'm not an 80's progressive-rock band.

That's all for now.

EDIT: WAIT NO I FORGOT.

I have a Bandcamp now, and you could buy Extraspiritual Transalienation if you were so inclined. It's like, 1 dollar for 16 tracks. That's ~6 cents per track. I don't know why I even made a Bandcamp… presumably just to have.
