[Faust needs to take a self-care day {Guilty Gear}]

:0 this is probably my favourite piece from you so far. Really great concepts and read. I love both versions of Faust in the cannon, and this design really is a great mix of Faust’s concepts throughout the years.

I’ve really been wondering what’s happened to Faust since his appearance in strive, we have some hints in “Another Story” but not much

Really good use of the colours on his outfit here, he looks like a great cross between both a doctor and a patient, which is what he essentially is at this point in time.

Also good touch with him getting help from Ky and Testament ^_^ I can easily see them and many other characters potentially helping Faust out in the cannon game and I’m crossing my fingers that happens.

I hope we get an in game explanation for him some day, would love to see this concept done in the cannon

Great work as always ^_^ keep going with the great art and concepts!!

Cheers ^0^

Thank you kindly! 8D 👍‍

People are still confused by Another Story lmao. We've got "Square One" and him spaghettifying himself from magical strain, but still not sure about what else.

My mind associates Faust with the color green a lot, and ever since looking at his old designs that had green and his Strive design lacking any green, my brain was like "HIM. GREEN. NOW." ashda. Faust needs therapy and a hug.

Thank you for noticing me putting Ky and Testament in there! If I recall correctly, Faust assisted with Sin, and Ky is overall just a cool dude. Then there's Testament, who is the one that freed him (as serial killer Dr. Baldhead) and gave him his long scalpel all the way back in Missing Link, and they hadn't seen each other since XX until Strive where Testament now loves themself and life instead of being an enraged misanthrope. Strive Testament would most likely not let Faust's physical self-neglect stand.

Yeah, we need some clearer explanation, people are still confused/arguing about what exactly happened to him (Is he literally dead and now a walking corpse? Did he just give something up instead of sacrificing himself entirely? He's got red eyes now even though he's said to not be a Gear...) lmao.

Once again, thanks! 8}

Cheers! 🥂

[MonMonth Day 4 - Eared Mew]

So happy to see someone finally drew this little guy ^_^ he was my absolute favourite in the anime, he’s so adorable. I also spent a lot of time grinding in the GBA games for one.
Nicely done ^0^ cheers ^0^

[buriburito]

TYY !!

[Bloodthirsty Bridget]

Fantastic art :o

Don't be too hard on yourself when it comes to the 9th floor, a lot of people get stuck in limbo there due to the players; Theyre all REALLY good. Have fun ^.^

gogamaton responds:

:O Thank you!! I’m still having fun with it, actually it’s the first fighting game i’ve been able to really enjoy outside of smash bros

[Irken Organs]

This is insanely good :0 very very creative. Which episode is this from again? Of course the Dark Harvest was about organs but I’m not sure I recall where this scene is from, I wanna go back and watch it.

Organs from aliens have always interested me in media, even if their very scary >.<

PS IM SUCH A HUGE FAN OF YOU OMG YOU ROCK ^0^

MayaMalice responds:

AAAA THANK YOU SO MUCH DUDE <333

I'm pretty sure it was from Gir Goes Crazy and Stuff but I gotta double check, It only flashes on screen for a few seconds lol

[PREPARE FOR THE GENDER NEUTRAL!]

That looks really good! Sorry, I don’t really have much advice on art critique here, but I really like the angle you put them in. It also really compliments the shading as well, having them look downwards really sells the way in particular this was shaded, if that makes any sense, and it looks really clean :0

Nicely done

[The Man Who Rays]

This is actually fantastic. It’s like you took the Rayman origins art style and made it even better and even cuter than it actually is.

I would love to play a game with this art style, it suits Ray so well ^_^

[Long live the king]

OMG POOR KY NOOOOOO X_x
This is really funny though, great stuff

WheatBreadd responds:

Thank ya!

[Trying to figure out Slayer {Guilty Gear sketch}]

LMAOOOO No joke, Guilty Gear models in general proportionately look odd. I would even go as far to say as they look so much more normal in Xrd when compared to strive.

I hope ya don’t mind me telling you a little story here; A while back, one of my friends as a joke wanted to make Sol do a bunch of TF2 dances. When he was showing me his animation process, that was when I first noticed just how odd the body proportions are. His head looks so much smaller than the rest of his body ^_^;

When we eventually get Slayer in strive, I wonder how beefed out they are going to make him LMAO

awesome job as usual ^_^

AshlynniisBrackets responds:

Lmaoooo. With making the models do TF2 dances: Have you shown your buddy Munchyjr by any chance? Munchy's made videos like making Xrd Robo-Ky's model dance (Robo Rock) and stuff.

Guilty Gear character proportions have gotten more wacky (affectionate) ever since they moved to a cartoonier character style in Xrd. A lot of the jokes about the male characters' waists (i.e. "Sol Badhourglassfigure", I've seen plenty of jokes about Venom having a twiggy waist, etc.) didn't really pick up until Xrd, and the jokes I've seen about Sol's waist still continue into Strive lmao. With the 2D sprites (primarily XX and other games based off of its art), they + their character proportions were noticeably less exaggerated, at least in their torso areas (though the character portraits are memed to hell for their derpy expressions). Slayer's silly hairstyle was more clearly shown to be the bangs-section instead of a solid forward-swept block in the 3D models.

Lmao I hope Slayer gets in Strive. I wanna see who kills Strive Chipp faster: Goldlewis, Nago, or Slayer sgdajshdk. He doesn't strike me as somehow who'd get much more outwardly beefed out, he can already punch people into space without having any exaggerated muscles like Chipp and he seems to be someone who likes his suit silhouette more than a muscled one lmao.

Many thanks! 8}
