Hastur was surprised when he woke up in the body of a soldier on the front lines of the first world war, but despite landing in a world with no magic- he didn't just survive, he thrived. Unfortunately, his new definition of 'thriving' meant starting his own gang and a string of illegal speakeasies in prohibition era America that lead him to an inevitably messy end fourteen years later.

Just when Hastur thought it was all over he woke up in his own world, back in his own body, neck deep in a mess made by the guy whose life he'd been living on Earth. Things have changed since he was last home but Hastur has returned with new skills and technical knowledge that could shake his world to its foundations...assuming a certain hot, jaded detective doesn't arrest him first.

Hey all! So this is something I'm writing for the True Love on Tapas event and I'd super appreciate your support! The top 15 entries get a 10k writing contract and I am foaming at the mouth for that kind of opportunity over here X'D

Unfortunately, the contest isn't judged just on quality, but also number of views/subscribers, so if you guys could go and drop a like on the chapters posted so far and give it a subscribe I'd be forever grateful!

Hello there Detroit: Become Human fic writers!

If you're still on the fence about joining the Reverse Big Bang this year, your time is running out!

Still not sure if there will be an idea you want to write for? Here's the ideas our artists are playing with (the ones that want to tell):

We've got hurt/comfort, we've got angst, we've got fluff, we've got RK1K, and Allen60, and Luthara, and so much more. There's something for everybody.

You only have until this Sunday to get the application in!

You can join the discord or send us an ask at this tumblr if you have questions for the mods, the pinned post on this tumblr contains both the schedule and the rules.

What else is a guy supposed to do but start spending a lot of time in the gym when his bae dies, comes back to life (?), joins a terrorist organization, saves the galaxy (again), blows up a solar system, then gets put on lockdown in a military facility for committing war crimes?

Kaidan's got a lot on his plate in the relationship department but at least he got hot af about it X'D (this is why he upgraded to heavy armor in ME3 you can't change my mind)

Dress Up Game (3)

My muse has been an elusive creature lately so to prime the art pump I wanna draw ✧・゚: *✧fashion✧*:・゚✧, so lets do another dress up game!

Hit me up in the asks with some fun and/or sexy outfits and I’ll draw them on somebody from either Mass Effect, Horizon Forbidden West, or DBH.

(you can suggest a character with the outfit but no promises if I’m vibing with someone else for it)

oh shit rpg maker xp is completely free to own this week on steam??

if you have OCs go redeem it. if you love making fanfic/fanart go add it to your steam account. even if you've never thought about making games go download it.

you'll never know when you want to get into game dev and it's not nearly as hard as it seems. want to make a 5 minute walking sim of your blorbo? wanna see your OCs in a little game? you can do that!!!

hey this ends in a few days on February 19th noon cst 2024. go get it if you haven't already. even if you already own a different version of rpgm, grab this- each version has different features and they remove features between versions. just go get it.

In search, it shows as 90% off, but when you go to its page, it's free.

Hello Cryptid-Jack! I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction to acquire a Kaidan rig for use in Blender. I haven't been able to source him through my usual places like Agora, Animator's Airtable, and Animation Methods. Thank you!

Yeah, no problem @masweird ! Believe it or not, Deviantart is actually a super good resource for 3D models- it's where I get most of mine!

For some of them, however, especially those from older games, you might find that they're in the .xps format, which means you're going to need the program XNALara to open them up so you can export them as an .obj, which you can then import into Blender for use.

Here's a DA group that has just about every ME model you could ever want! Although, actually, just looking again I found a Kaidan specifically for the Blender cycles engine here in that same group.

Also, if you're looking for a good 3D resource I highly recommend OPEN3DLAB, they've got a lot of great stuff, esp if you're looking for models from your fave games.
