Hey, want to see what a landsquid looks like when you haven’t drawn one in a few months? My imagination is weird. Also, in celebration of the haunting season being afoot, you can read my new ghost story, The Door
Alpaca Overlord Week: My Rise to Power
Today, I will tell you, my minions, of how I overcame Kit and her accursed landsquid to rise above the odds, to conquer trials and tribulations, and to inspire you with feelings of my greatness. And to warn you that
