Fan Art: The Biggest Question in Night in the Woods
From Rad again! This one’s based off a funny moment from my Night in the Woods Let’s Play, where I have a brief existential crisis every time a Person Cat and a Cat Cat are on screen at the same time.
I love the visual of Mae carrying me around as I make all my stupid comments and generally interrupt her life.

Fan Art: Shout Out to Sir TapTap by Rad
I feel almost embarrassed posting this fan art because it’s so supportive and makes me crazy happy, but here’s a lovely shoutout comic from Rad!:

Fan Games Are No Less Protected Than Fan Art By IP Laws
Or: It’s Time To Stop Defending Nintendo Unless You Hate Fan Art Too.
(This article is available in an expanded, podcast-style form as well, on YouTube.)
A common refrain when a fan game is taken down is that it’s within Nintendo’s rights. Do you know what else is within Nintendo’s rights? Sending DMCA takedowns to every single OC Remix track based directly on Nintendo’s music. What else is within Nintendo’s Legal Rights That Are Totally Always Okay To Enforce?
Say Nintendo read every article about Cosplay and sent a DMCA notice to have the pictures taken down and demanded that the cosplayer never again display or create a costume based on a Nintendo character. Is that cool with you? Because it’s not actually any different than fan games, legally speaking.
How about Nintendo sends DMCAs to the millions of pieces of Nintendo character fan art spread across Deviant Art, Pixiv, Twitter, Tumblr, everywhere? Because they could do that. Legally.
Remixes, fan art and yes, even cosplay are derivative works. The only legal difference between them and fan games is that corporations don’t go after them.

Fan Art: Louey the Flowey by Ender Sammi
Not a spikeball this time, but still a piece I inspired: I present to you the dual horrors of Louey (Pony Island) and Flowey (Undertale), brought to you by @EnderSammi:
Commission: Sir TapTap avatar by Andrew Stewart
This one might be a little familiar since I was using it for an avatar for about two years! It’s by Andrew Stewart, and was my first commissioned artwork related to my avatar! I have a newer, more Yoshi’s Island-esque avatar I tend to use now, but that doesn’t mean I like this one any less.

Fan Art: Sir TapTap in Terraria by Bamseper
This is an oldie but still a goodie, an artwork by Bamseper. This is from wayyyy back from Terraria’s 1.0 days or so. Bamseper’s been a fan for years and a pretty chatty one. It may not be new to me, but I’d like to share all the fan art I get and this one still warms my heart to this day.
You can see other art in the Fan Art Gallery!
