Suddenly, Giant Lichen Colony

130 replies [Last post]

So, I started playing Spiral Knights about a month ago, but it wasn't till yesterday that one of these monstrosities decided to appear.

You've probably been there, seen that; a room of sorts brimming with little Lichens, nothing blocking them from merging together. Hey, I'd even gotten used to expecting Lichen Colonies. But suddenly...

Now, I'm fairly easily spooked. The other evening I managed to get scared by my own shadow while out biking, so this thing popping up out of "nowhere" kinda, well, surprised me. Cue mass-screenshotting. I beat it easily enough, though. :V

To the actual point of this post!

I drew fanart. :3

Figured someone else on here might like seeing it or something, so hello. .o/

Eeeeew! No wait: oooooooo!

Eeeeew! No wait: oooooooo!

I read the story several days ago. Didn't have anything to say so I just waited for an update. Will there ever be another? :(

I'm not currently sure. :/

I'm not currently sure. :/ Knowing that at least one person would like there to be makes it more likely, though. I'm such an attention *word that's probably censored*, it's horrible. D: Lack of feedback just stops me sometimes. ._.

This, though.

Frekin sweet man. keep em coming.

I thouroghly enjoyed that picture. It made my day.

If you keep drawing at this

If you keep drawing at this amazing rate, you'll hit 200 pages easily.

Also, I am veeery tempted to make a Lichen Colony jell-o dessert. And make a stuffed Snarbykitten. >:

#56
Oh goodness, you should

Oh goodness, you should totally do that. :o And then post pictures. Both sound potentially absolutely amazing. :D

Speaking of crafting things, this is my love puppy to be. http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z121/Mazzelh/Photoon2011-11-11at1058…
Just needa stop lazying about and actually sit down and work with it. The whole "this stuff is sort of toxic" is discouraging me a little cos I'll wanna get done in one sitting.

*sniff*Sniff*

what IS that? I have no clue

Off-topic babble, hurray!

I saw your post in the daily questions thread, so--

Copy and pasting does indeed work in SK. You can only copy things that are in type boxes (like the chat box, auction search, or mail), but you can paste from clipboard. I've done it when I'm trying to sell or buy stuff. I use ctrl + v, so I'm not sure if you're using a PC? I mean, cmd + v might be Mac or something, I wouldn't know. Dx Maybe that's why it doesn't work for you?

Try contacting support if it still doesn't work. It's an included feature, so it'll hopefully soon end your endless 3 woes.

I'm glad it works! Yeah, SK

I'm glad it works! Yeah, SK is kind of limited on the stuff it can do, but since the game download is so tiny, I suppose it's to be expected.

Oh man, your guild sounds awesome! "I'd like to buy a vowel", hahahaha.

Also, how you do you make someone look so cute with, like, 4 lines and some circles? Gimme that talent. D: (Also, I tried to make a jello ball the other day...it didn't work too well. I might try something smaller, but we'll see xD)

#62
These are pretty fantastic.

These are pretty fantastic. Keep it up!

#63
You have a lot of

You have a lot of talent!
I'll be checking in now and then to see some more fabulous drawings!

@Godzy: Oh woah. :O Dem

@Godzy: Oh woah. :O Dem lichens AND all dem ice cubes. And blast cube. Looks painful. :O
Also, giant lichen screenshots are totally welcome here. After my initial being absolutely terrified I have come to love them. Gotta head down to the final level of the Briar Bone Barrage next time it's available, wanna check out dat Toxilargo.

@Rubyeclipse and Tennis: Thankoo and yay. :D

@Myllakka: Yeah, I'm just glad I've been made aware of how it can work. :D Also, my guild is totally awesome. Good peeps in thar. \o/
The cute-in-few-lines thing is a matter of practice. :P Big, shiny eyes and tiny face often works well, though.
Too bad about the initial jello ball fail, but I hope next attempt turns out better. :)

@No one in particular: I'm working on another piece o' lichen fanart, but meanwhile, have some non-SK stuff. Kittens! 2-3 minute scribbles done to cheer a friend up.

XDDD That is the best thing

XDDD That is the best thing ever, possibly topped by the Snarbykitten. I love the detail and though that went into the harness. I bet this would be the softest ride ever, even though the Colony has a tendency to speed up and stop randomly.

@Incoherrant

I've seen that somewhere in black & white on another thread. Looks very nice in color. Just noticed: is that one of the vendor backpacks on top of the Lichen Colony? And is that a smaller Lichen on top of that?

#69
Yes to all

....

Yup ^^

#71
So are Incoherrant and Zoph

So are Incoherrant and Zoph the same guy/girl?

Thanks Lemonadium.

Nice job once again Incoherrant/Zoph by the way.

#72
@ WindsickleYeah.

@ Windsickle
Yeah.

@ Incoherrant
Now I want a ridable lichen colony... :|

#73
There's a demand for lichen

There's a demand for lichen mounts? Hold on, lemme round up the herd...

And yes, Windsickle. To quote myself:
"Yo peeps, now I can actually sign in with the account I play and a character I wouldn't mind carrying the name of... :V"
Zoph's the nickname I sign with and get called by real life friends. Inco works too, though. \o/

#75

Businessy Update

Thankoo, peeps. :)

Nothing new to post this time, but I figured I'd state that I'm quite willing to take commissions on, although possibly a bit expensively.
Would be something like 3.5k ce (or $10 flung at my paypal) for a simple-but-detailed pic like the one of Kalaina, easily a lot more if complex poses, background or other time consuming stuff.
On the other side of the scale, a simple coloured scribble for 1000 or less should also be entirely doable without making me feel I'm spending time and effort for no pay. Or something like http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z121/Mazzelh/Derps/Yarnkitten.png for around 100 ce. Who knows.
It wouldn't -have- to be of Spiral Knights related things, I can draw other stuff. :P

If interested, lemme know what you want and what you're willing to pay. I'm flexible, but I'm also highly insistent on actually getting something for my effort. :o If not interested, ignore the existence of this post. Will keep drawing regardless of whether for someone or for my own entertainment. \o/

/love

yes, /love
Gospel is full of love!

#82
oh Incoherrant, where art

oh Incoherrant, where art thou? :(

#83
:o

I'm around, just a bit hiatus-y (been playing more than I've been drawing lately). Whussup? :o

#84
you look at my thread

you look at my thread recently?

#85
OMGOMGOMG

Your drawings are damn good !! Please please pwease Crown-Commissions ..... damn pleeeeaaaase... sry..

#86
Replies and a scribble :o

"you look at my thread recently?"
I haven't really, it was getting so many replies that I fell behind reading it and then stopped looking for a while. Much activity spooks me. ._. Whatcha made?

"Your drawings are damn good !! Please please pwease Crown-Commissions ..... damn pleeeeaaaase... sry.."
You know you can buy ce for crowns ingame, right? That said, I'll gladly take crowns equivalent to current ce prices instead of actual ce. Heck, I'll even take cool items for trade if you randomly have some I'm interested in (and with items actual value is less important than my excitement over getting one).

On another note, what a giant lichen colony with a santyhat would look like if someone paid me 100 ce to draw it:
http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z121/Mazzelh/Santyhat.png
I read they don't actually have santyhats like the rest of the mobs do. :(

#90
Because

I said I -might- draw it. :o I like the idea and do wanna scribble it, but you're not paying me so quit trying to make me do it faster, silly. It puts me off of wanting to. :(
/fickle artist

If I wasn't poor, I'd totally commission something. ;c

I was sad that a lot of mobs don't have hats when I thought all of them were going to. RT has teeny tiny hats on their canons, and JK has one inside him (which seems...uncomfortable), but Vana doesn't.

#92
I appreciate that you would<3

Snarby has one on its tail. It looks delightfully silly.
Very disappointed lichens didn't get any, though. And very distracted in a graveyard where dust zombies poured out of the ground with pristine little hats. x)

#93
*~*

Okay! i pay you, better?
=3

#95
*~*

Already payed! i expect great drawings my friend

#96
Wuvpuppies forever! <3

I love your art, Inco! I also love your fanfic :D Can't wait to see your love puppy!

PS, is there another thread that you changed to? Cuz The last post was two weeks ago...

Looks like the aging has jaded him a bit. Rather cute, though c:
