Martin design throughout the seasons! plus lonely martin,, also he dyes his hair cause,, yaknow, and fogged glasses in the last 3
(lonely martin is meant to look more like his younger self when he felt a lot more closed off from the people around him also being very blunt ))
ahhhh the way you visualize the avatars is so cool!!!,,, ,i have been having trouble trying to figure out what highlight? design element? buried avatars would have like hezekiah and whatnot, how would you do it?
this is how i would represent the buried!, markings of hands coming from bellow, waiting to take you and drag you down
oh love, kissing someone on the cheek has to be one of the most inherently romantic things i can imagine. i dont know why but the idea of waking up early in the morning and seeing your partner still groggy and just giving them a simple kiss on the cheek as you wait for the morning haze to clear.
more of them being happy for once: cue my craving to make soul crushing angst art, maybe just maybe… soon
martin said no to cuddling cause its way to damn hot, and jon decided to mope abt it (i drew this bc i hate the humidity here but man do i want to be held)
Realizing how whenever Jon gave a statement on the current area in season 5- that was just glorified info-dumping (more so eldritch horror info-dumping)
You know the brainrots real when you find images and all you can do is relate them to tma
martin always needs to be takin care of someone or else he’ll go fuckin crazy,
this definitely happened i dunno what ur talkin bout! (i just want aggressive comfort man)
it was just a matter of time of when i would do an aftermath comic
speak of the devil! there he is! part 2
funfact for when i draw hair in my style: they are bald underneath always bald
part 3,,, annabelle’s havin to open up all the windows again smh someones gonna think the cabin is on fire with how much fog/smoke there is
part 4, middle of nowhere
got some of those eldritch pains
ok ok fine ill drop the tma playlist (ignore my wack ass music taste i dunno what im on)
hypothetically elias wants a man like peter, but the multitude of divorces say otherwise
they found a lake near the cabin! time for some lake adventures!
(hc- jon never bothered to learn how to swim. In contrast, martin loves to go swimming)
a night in the cabin
(whenever jon is sleeping/relaxed he appears to look like his ‘archivist’ form (like a true form of himself), even if jon rejects the title of archivist this is kinda a sign that its rooted much deeper than he thought. always branded with that permanent reminder of what you are, and have done :-) *tumbs up*)
doodle of thems <3
i was just gonna do one of those pre-generated pallets but i didnt quite stick to the colors- woopsie
Here’s something I don’t think I posted- (it’s from a couple weeks ago))
Text:
Martin- “You are not just an archive for horrors which you unknowingly tempt.
You are more than for what you’ve been used.
You are a tale of your own, one that is to be spun by a masterful creator.
You are a story of love.
You are not one to dwell on fondness, but I see nothing else.
For you are mine, and I to you.
So…?
Jon- I liked that one.
Martin- I thought you hated poetry
Jon- I don’t understand most of them.
That one I did, and it was… nice.
Martin- are you sure it’s not just because I wrote it for you?
Jon: hmm
Perhaps
they still got their problems
and nightmares plague the mind.

“some say they would trade the world for the one they love. I did. And im glad about it. But things are still hard.”
drawing them comfy just makes me hapy <33
Jon doesn’t like ordering for himself
MY DAD SAW THE “I DIDNT WANT TO ORDER” POST LAST NIGHT AND ALL I HEARD WAS A CACKLE FROM HIS ROOM-
HE KNOWS THESE CHARACTERS- HE IS CURRENTLY LISTENING TO THE MAGNUS ARCHIVES
BUT THE THING HE CAME IN MY ROOM TO TALK ABOUT WAS THE DUMB TURTLE SANDBOX IMAGE I PUT AFTER IT- HE LOVES THAT FUCKIN TURTLE MAN
decided to doodle jon wearin stuff i dont usually draw em in! mans snazzy 2nite
Take a shot every time jon says “I suppose” challenge! If your re-listening to it you might notice how often he says it
may or may not be making another animatic, this one may be a bit upsetting, (also its quite a bit longer and im doin a ton more drawings for this one))
anyways! sneak peek!
Yall I found this cat in a sewer drain last night, didn’t know what to do with the poor thing. Should I keep it? It seems very paranoid, any suggestions? (Season 1 jon has dumpster cat energy)
Anyways! Here’s another sneak peek, currently finished up to 55 frames! Woo! Dunno how many I got left but we’ll find out eventually!
Showed my dad The Mechanisms,
i think he’s even more in love with Jonathan sims now
Hands you a tim stoker in these trying times:
70-ish frames in! (all fully colored, and I’m using something different to edit this time! I’m using adobe cause my school lets us get it for free- and I simply refuse to watch any tutorials so I’m teaching myself, as I tend to do with most programs)
Remembering the time I said “jumper” un-ironically when referring to a sweater- to give context, I am from the south, like pretty Deep South and the only time you really use the word “jumper” is when you refer to a romper (at least in my context) so this just goes to show how brain damaging British people are, I’ve also gone on to say other British phrases because of this damned podcast, lord save me
Heart wrenching Idea I came up with: so when Jon is trying to find Martin in the lonely, what if when he used his abilities to *see* what he saw was Martins perspective of Jon- like during his coma, how every day Martin went to visit, left flowers and everything. How Martin would always prepare a second cup of tea even when he knew Jon would most likely say no. How during late nights in the office Martin would get a blanket for him. Just little things like that. And that’s how he was able to find him.
Additional: when Martin was trapped in the lonely, those were the thoughts playing back in his mind. All those one sided actions, how his little crush on Jon could’ve just made him feel even lonelier, all the little things he did not expecting anything in return. Followed by his line,
“I really loved you, you know?”
had to do a drawing based on that idea i had this morning,,
all the little things that went unnoticed for so long, just for them to come back in a flood
took a break from working on the animatic and did this dumb doodle- someone needs to keep me away from random ass images
Heyo! I know you've already got a lot on your plate, drawing that very lovely animatic, but I've been wondering if you would ever draw (distortion) Michael again?! :0
I loove your design for him so much!! He's so funky :D
sure thing!! it was nice to take a break from the animatic to do this- actually gettin to use more colors outside of the pallet i have- an absolute icon just for you <33
ITS DONE! IVE DONE IT! IT TOOK ABOUT A WEEK BUT ITS DONE!! 100+ FRAMES N ALL!!
ill be posting frames from it here shortly!
some of my favorite frames from the animatic!! thank you guys for all the nice comments!! <33 ive never really done character interaction with audio before like this- so it means a lot!!
dumb doodle before i go to bed
based off of this image
The Archivist now has a personal ‘bodyguard’ to prevent further kidnappings
Based off of that one image- if I find it again I’ll link it
Season 1 Jon doodle just cause i miss this disgruntled cat of a man
My horrid outfit skills on full show when I draw Jon- I’m bored as hell so I made a outfit for him
(Lmk if I should do more of these outfit boards))
(Also if it isn’t obvious I love patterns and clutter- clutter core aesthetic <33))
i keep finding these old illustrations and some of them are absolutely hilarious and give off major tma vibes-
i love how multiple people have said my season 1/ pre season jon looks like he should be shoved inside a locker (my exact intentions)
this idea has been done multiple times but i jus wanted to hop in (doodle for today))
Happy birthday dear archivist,
(Another scene from the animatic that I had fun doing))
Another outfit board! This time for Martin- it was so hard deciding if I wanted these printed pants with a scene or if I wanted to pick a sweater with a scene but here’s a fit for him! Y’all seemed to like the Jon one sooo
This one goes out to the anon asking for how Jon would comfort Martin- I had this idea that sometimes Martin has quite literal ‘brain fog’ days and just needs some time to wind down, and the ultimate remedy for this is just settling down and watchin a movie!
sometimes i like 2 remember how clingy this man is,
this man has to put up with this menace on a daily basis
ITS FALL!! PLEASE LORD I NEED COLD WEATHER NOWW I NEED AN EXCUSE TO CUDDLE UP WITH THE HOMIES!!
thank you to those who sent me images!! here ar some of the ones i did <33
Screw it, puts Jon and Martin in the reality where the mystery flesh pit exists
