File:OFFrific vs TRS.png

1223-18 [edited] - Perhaps one of the more esoteric arts I've made - and perhaps a callback to making mock screenshots in general - I've made a mockshot in the style of a freeware game called OFF made by Mortis Ghost. I've joined rather late into the OFF-hypetrain as far as around June and I really liked the game so much I've also played HOME - a fanmade sequel made by FelixTheCat (God rest his soul.)

The mockshot depicts a (or rather, HS 609 (CHAOS TIME)) happening during the HS 1952E5 (Ƨaga)-HS 4FD827 (Altered) timeline, making a daring rescue mission to save Masa from the The Blood Thief's captivity - under the guise of going on a "vacation" so the other IQ superiors wouldn't get too suspicious.

I dubbed the boss' name "The Red Smith" as a pun on the blacksmith occupation, with OFF's Wide Angle description being [48 char max per line:]

The Red Smith Chief blacksmith allied with the Blood Thief. HP : ??? / MP : ??? Ludusian Sector Boss.

Overall, it started out as a simple OFF-based screenshot edit, making the sprites for Hank, Sam, Delinius and Masa on 702-18 [, with the Evernote poking in on 811-18]. Considering it took me almost half a year to finish this due to military-life getting in the way more than so previously, on and OFF (punz) it took me maybe at most a month in total to finish - including the scans* I made of The Red Smith to emulate the grayscale sketchiness that permeates the world of OFF. As a last minute addition, I decided to add Poisonshot to the party - with Masa being a support NPC.

Finally, I'm also preemptively sorry for any scares I've made with this highly-detailed sprite.

Addendums

 * * BTW, there were 2 iterations of TRS scans - both two files are of the 2nd revision - the 1st revision was similar to the 1st file of rev.2 except I deliberately wanted to start over due to internal disputes of the design. Hard to focus on sketching a RIPPED body when all you have for reference as a first is the wrestling dude from Rhythm Heaven Fever.
 * [Deprecated: Also, speaking of the military, my service is expected to end around February, so I'll definitely return at that time for an introspection on my entire service and the wiki while I was gone.. that would be fun...]
 * Update on 511-19: I decided to add a shadow under TRS to make it more menacing and authentic.
