Artist commentary:

Wheals: (Composer)

Ever since I heard the very well-made medley -3x piano solo in sound test 1, I wanted to make an arrangement that both had actual instrumentation and wasn't buried among the piles of rubbish on that album. Shwan was kind enough to give me a MIDI, which I sat on for 8 months before cranking this out. The theme (and meaning of the name) of -3x piano solo (and this song too) may not be immediately obvious -- it's songs that were used in the comic from Acts 1-4. I had fun adding four more songs to Shwan's reference list, none of which are in *Volumes* 1-4.

cookiefonster: (Artist)

Wheals' idea for this art was to make CANWC versions of scenes in every flash each song plays in, so I painstakingly redrew (read: pasted together images and poorly retraced) 24 different scenes from Homestuck, except for a few flashes that had an exact CANWC equivalent where I just stole a screenshot from the flash. Even though I barely actually drew anything (I can't draw to save my life), I'm legitimately proud of this art. Making a Fresh Jimmy version of the FreshJamz logo has to be my best accomplishment yet.
