Some things that shoots laser - made for the bachelor film.
A concept sketch for our bachelor movie. Go to shepherdfilm for more visual candy.
Trying out some slightly more realistic looking renditions of some of the characters in this post. And yes, they seem a little moody.
Updated!! Also added the new Flowey Ref I made and just finished today too!!

What is Twinfell? Twinfell is an AU based around Underfell (creator @underfell) where the monsters in the underground are very edgy, hateful, and fueled with fear. At first, the monsters were just like the ones in Undertale, but after they were trapped underground, they turned to hate and fear. Asgore was the first person in this AU to fall, and everyone went down the same path as him eventually.
The story of Underfell starts after the monsters have fully integrated into this mindset, but unlike normal Underfell, Twinfell also combines the events of Flowerfell as part of the AU. Flowerfell was created by @Siviosanei, where every time Frisk dies, the timeline resets. And when they return to life, a buttercup grows on their body. The flowers could not be removed as it hurts Frisk. Despite the cruel nature of the characters in Underfell, Frisk remains pacifist.
Twinfell takes place 7 years after Flowerfell happens. (In my AU version of Flowerfell, instead of the ending where Sans uses Frisks' SOUL along with the other 6 human SOULs to break the barrier and free all of the Monsters), he instead chooses to absorb Frisks' SOUL and lets the other 6 fade into nothingness due to his depression and grief over losing Frisk, as well as his fears that even after everything Frisk did trying to teach the Underfell Monsters the meaning of kindness and pacifism, that they might not have learned anything at all. Basically instead choosing to trap the UF monsters behind the Barrier with no way to escape.
Undyne, and Papyrus however, learning about Sans GODsoul and remembering how kind Frisk was, and seeing perhaps Asgore was wrong about all humans being heartless bastards, the 3 of them decide to make a rebellion group called the "Freedom Fighters" where they vow to take down Asgore, the Royal Guards as well as Asgore's "Kill or Be Killed" mindset once and for all and make the underground a much more inhabitable place.
How did the AU initially come about ?
I was fascinated with the story and lore (as well as the overall aesthetic of Underfell) and obsessing over Flowerfell at the time, and I never noticed those two were completely different AUs until I basically did a deep dive into them both. And basically I wondered "what if I combined the two AUs together???" Another reason for it, was because I frankly got tired of the fandom for the most part sort of 'meme-ing' on the Underfell AU and other adjacent "Fell" AUs, I wanted to take the concept of Underfell and make it even more darker and twisted. And also dive even deeper into the whole concept of the Monsters losing their morality and humanity (which was the number one reason why I personally love the Underfell universe the most of all Undertale AUs I've read about and gotten interested in.) And wanted to do my own take on the verse, hence "Twinfell."
What is fighting like in the game ?
If there ever WAS a game made properly for Twinfell, I was sort of thinking the fighting system would be "real-time" instead of taking turns. (Or maybe its still turn based just like canon UNDERTALE, if you are fighting against any of the members of the Freedom Fighters group) vs the monsters on Asgore's side and The Royal Guard, who fight you based on real time.
In the RUINs, it's also turn-based, since technically the monsters are unaffiliated with either side, (some may fight you based on real-time depending how desperate they get in the fight. like during low HP moments etc.)
So I’m thinking just like in the canon Underfell Universe, that there isn’t a “pacifist” or a “ genocide” route.
More of like a Trust, Betrayal, Closure routes.
Trust: Otaku manages to befriend all the monsters and make them trust one another again.
Betrayal: Flowey or Akumu pins the monsters against each other resulting in Frisk getting blamed for it.
Closure: Otaku befriends all the monsters and manages to make them realize the wrongs they’ve committed. Finally finding closure within each other.”
((Still a WIP trying to figure out how this works))
What is the FIGHT/ACT/ITEM/MERCY interface like ? “FIGHT-ACT-ITEMS-MERCY" it’d still be the same as canon Undertale.
FIGHT- Butt heads against the monsters, but when things start getting seriously bad for the monster With them being at the last strand of HP they have, Flowey would step in and say “Maybe now they’ll listen to you” The fight option would be gone and then Mercy-> Spare HOWEVER if you ONLY fight them, it doesn’t mean they trust you, it just means they fear you. Choosing to only fight would still decide the routes.
ACT- same concept, trying to convince them not to kill you by making them trust you. Act takes longer per usual, but instead of Spare it’d be Mercy-> Convince Because by this time they have a little trust in you, and would come around wanting to help you. And themselves.
ITEMS- same thing, except you have a surprise box cutter in flowey's pot that isn’t known about until the end of the route.
MERCY - Self-Explanatory. May change to "Convince" or "Spare" depending on actions.
((Once again, might change later on. Entire AU is still a WIP))
TWINFELL Plotline:
((WIP Still Under Construction))
ALL ABOUT THE CHARACTERS:
AKUMU RENGAI
Both were abandoned on the side of the road near an abandoned shopping mall by their parents at the age 7 and for 5 years they basically lived on their own and did what they could to survive up until CPS (Child Protective Services) of Ebott City finally found and rescued them and brought to an orphanage where the twins lived in for 2 more years and would move from foster family to foster family without much success.
(Mostly due to the Fosters wishing to seperate the twins since Akumu was very rebellious, and was suffering from abandonment issues and trauma, while Otaku was very easy going and well behaved. They thought Aku was a problem child.)
To avoid getting seperated again, Akumu took and lied to her brother to go sight seeing by climbing Mt. Ebott for a "Family Photo" of the two of them standing on the mountain overseeing Ebott City, when they both tripped and accidentally fell into a massive hole near the summit and landed on Golden Flowers….
Fun facts:
The Eldest Twin (by like, 10 minutes)
Has the SOUL of Discipline. (A combination of DETERMINATION and BRAVERY)
Effects: The SOUL becomes rock-hard. Able to bounce off attacks without taking too much damage. (About half the damage.) Though if done, the attacks will eventually fall back down at a faster pace and change color to injure the host at double the attack power it would have normally been.
14 years old.
Very rebellious, and acts much older than her actual age.
Is also extremely protective of her brother, and will even kill both monsters AND other humans if it meant keeping him safe.
Practically trusts no one, except for Otaku considering he is the only family she has left that still gives a shit about her and puts up with her "bad attitude" and issues.
Able to see and use the SAVE stars, cannot RESET.
OTAKU RENGAI
Both were abandoned on the side of the road near an abandoned shopping mall by their parents at the age 7 and for 5 years they basically lived on their own and did what they could to survive up until CPS (Child Protective Services) of Ebott City finally found and rescued them and brought to an orphanage where the twins lived in for 2 more years and would move from foster family to foster family without much success.
(Mostly due to the Fosters wishing to seperate the twins since Akumu was very rebellious, and was suffering from abandonment issues and trauma, while Otaku was very easy going and well behaved. They thought Aku was a problem child.)
To avoid getting seperated again, Akumu took and lied to her brother to go sight seeing by climbing Mt. Ebott for a "Family Photo" of the two of them standing on the mountain overseeing Ebott City, when they both tripped and accidentally fell into a massive hole near the summit and landed on Golden Flowers….
Fun facts:
14 years old (younger than Akumu by about 10 minutes)
Unlike his sister, he's very kind, and able to pretty much adapt to any situation.
Is also very smart and interested in robotics and engineering from a young age.
Tries to stay positive, whereas his sister is a pessimist about most things.
Has the SOUL of DILIGENCE. (A mix of DETERMINATION, INTEGRITY and PATIENCE)
Effects: Otaku's SOUL creates a shield around itself that can withstand 2 bullet hits before it breaks, in which then the user will take twice the amount of damage when hit. The user with this SOUL must thus be more studious in memorizing the attack patterns and be more careful dodging.
Able to RESET, but cannot SAVE.
FLOWEY
Regained some of his emotions during his journey with Frisk
The boot he resides in belongs to Otaku
Uses his 'friendliness pellets' to heal the twins. Each pellet is worth 1HP everytime the twins touches one, they regain 1HP
TORIEL
Makes meat pies out of the fallen humans that had fallen into the RUINS, and stores their corpses in her freezer.
After Chara and Asriel died, Toriel become emotionally detached from everyone, especially her ex-husband
SANS
Let's Frisk take over 90% of the time
he doesn’t get flustered and isn’t always angry, he’s just very tired
let him rest
he sweats easily under that big ass jacket
he’s been holding in a lot of emotional shit, so he’s constantly radiating his powers which mostly affects his jacket fur
is technically the most powerful with the consequence of hurting himself the most (Due to KR attacking him too since he ALSO has LV, and EXP)
Loves mustard and basically puts it on everything even when everyone else thinks it's disgusting or on food that probably shouldn't have mustard on it.
he tried on Papyrus’ boots once and felt alive
Sans says “I’M GOING TO HAVE ONE HELL OF A TIME”
Oc Redesigns
Redesigns in color! I'm really happy with how these turned out. I especially love Lily's(Fern) new design and color scheme. Wasn't really satisfied with her old one.
Rose
hasn’t change THAT lot, i think, but I like it
Lil drawing for a challenge over on @askafterlife 's Discord! (@field-of-hopes-and-nightmares ). We needed to draw our OCs in winter outfits eheh
My OCs in their New Years clothes!
A drawing I finished some time ago for @askafterlife 's January art challenge over on Discord! If you want, there's a challenge every month. You can join the Discord here!
Here's a collab I did with a good friend of mine!
Inferis - Gula - Citree
I present to you the Citree general concept art. You can imagine it with even more trees and small houses, it’s been a few years the sketch was done and I didn’t have the time to finish it before now. The Citree is a collaboration between me and Daphy ( She helped me with the concept, did the lineart of my sketch and correcting this text-. Thanks again, I would have died-- ).
This place can be found in Gula and many people wish they could live there. It’s probably one of the calmest places in Inferis and the view is astonishing. Almost like a small forbidden Heaven within Hell. Cottagecore houses, log cabins and tree houses are places of choice for any creature that establishes themselves here. Despite growing in a tree, the fruits and vegetables from the Citree have the same quality as those that are cultivated in fields. One of the citizens' biggest incomes of money comes from the exportation of the Citree's wild berries, since they grow as quickly as weeds. Fireflies can be seen at night, but be careful to not mix them up with the few Will o' Wisps that may appear to try to trick people.
Some concepts for a painting :) I’ve been looking through sketches/studies from the past year or two and seeing if I can do something new with them ✨💀
🍄 Mushroom friends, mushroom friends 🍄 bringing these back because I don’t think I ever shared the whole group with colours ☺️🍄 just some simple little friends: - the mushroom merchant - the prince - the mentor - the twins 🍄 I think the twins or the merchant would be my favorite, but what about you? .
It still surprises me how nobody thought of making a Zombie Apocalypse universe with Bugsnax
I can see a very interesting story where the residents of snaxburg has to fight for their lives with the snaxs trying to take over them
It's a pretty cool idea
I might write about it and post some art about it..I'm not sure yet
I don't have time to draw this idea..but-
Wiggle Wigglebottom
DJ Grooves
Mettaton
Just them being stars
That's it..I might draw it but not now..I'm tired
Found family 💕💕
These guys concept art has been sitting in my sketchbook for months now.
Im a sucker for found family villain groups
big boss man just got back from jail
lemme introduce you to the gang
1. Dexter(Hugging dude on the bottom), The boss of the villainy group. A dopey but somehow successful supervillain. Hes very smart book wise and is quite charasmatic
2. Jane(Girl on the bottom panel), the right hand. She used to be a heros sidekick til she was offered more pay being a right hand for a villain. Jane and dexter are most certainly dating/ in love
3. Lewie (guy on the 1st panel to the left), henchman. He works here because no other job would hire him given his past. Lewie is a sarcastic ass and enjoys hanging with his best friend Olna
4. Olna (Alien gal) henchman. Shes the youngest on the crew but isnt to be trifled with. she enjoys pulling pranks and joking around with Lewie
5. Peaches (hairless cat ) henchman. Shes a debby downer. shes always here to remind you what could go wrong with something. She has the best fashion sense on the team. shes also the only one who can keep Rex under control.
6. Rex (sleepy puppy) henchman. He is not the brightest of the bunch. He is the muscle though. He would never let anything harm the team he is beyond loyal to the group. hes the biggest lovebug of the team.
hope you enjoy the concept
character up top is named willow (hes a cowboy/pirate in another universe but a selkie in this one)
i have like no proper sketches of this bc it’s difficult to draw but ive been figuring out selkies in my fantasy world. So far ive decided that they turn their skin into a cocoon within which they transform between human/seal. And going with the classic wearing their skin as a coat or clothing item bc its fun and fresh.
Solitary species, women notably larger than men (based on leopard seals). Each individual has their own unique pattern (like a fingerprint) that stays on their fur when they change into a human form. Their size as a seal is also the exact same weight and whatnot as when in human form, so it transfers over evenly.
Also some cultural shit where selkies are considered good luck and fisherman/sailors avoid messing with selkies to avoid bad luck + getting killed, but others who aren’t familiar with them occasionally try and steal their furs (very strong and protective material that also happens to be pretty).
They mingle among humans in order to steal fish from fishermen usually. Fishermen let it slide bc selkies are useful and can find fish schools easily + avoid bad weather.
chat does this look like a man reborn as a demon to you. (ive been struggling with making good demon designs) anyways,,,

Finger armour thingy I wanted to CAD and 3D print over the winter break that I never got around to.
Made the paper mockup one night at home and was super happy w it. Then did a stupid and kept it in my lanyard thing and then I lost 2 of the pieces 😢. Took longer than it should've to lose them, considering their precarious position, but I was still devastated. Tried remaking it later on but it didn't work out 😭
I tried to CAD it once sem2 started up, but I realised I have no idea how to do so. I tried to do smth where I get the profiles down w extrude cuts, but I couldn't get any angle other than complete birds-eye/side-view from looking like ass. smh i'll try again some day
Glue and pen on paper
the sound of a seagull greets him through an open window. he’s sitting in a quiet and quaint hotel restaurant. the california coast.
he looks out the window across the dock. the boats rest still in the calm waters of the pier. the autumn morning sun is bright, accompanied by a tame and salty ocean breeze. he’s thinking about someone. he thinks about home.
a chilly morning for pastel chino shorts & a well-worn, cerulean linen sweater. both wrinkled, because of the suitcase and an impatience for folding laundry. his dark blond hair is healthy and uncombed, his pale skin and slight accent likely hinting to others he’s not from around here. at ease, his thoughts drift back to kentucky, back to the summer.
surrounded by the soft sounds of silverware clinking on plates, coffee mugs being picked up & sat back down on the tables, sunlight and small talk fill the room. he focuses on the present moment, breathing everything in. people actually live like this, he smiles.
The Puppet design, the eyes aren’t porpotionate but idc
Au where Karl time-travels and then he sees Phil, looking the exact same as ever, and it's like the spiderman meme and
Karl: We time traveled to the same time??
Phil: I didn't time travel??
Karl: You didn't?? How are you here??
Phil: I never left??
Karl: YOU'RE IMMORTAL??
Phil: YOU CAN TIME TRAVEL??
