Artist commentary:
Noisemaker: (composer, booklet commentary)
An extension of a very, very short segment of a group collaboration (7 GRAND END from the Cool and New Music Team), it seemed unfitting to leave something like this in its short, unfinished state.
SplitSuns: (album help, booklet commentary)
Buffskull was originally a part of the CANMT song "7 GRAND END," with the music syncing up to the final Act 7 flash in Homestuck. This part of the song played when Vriska and her army prepared to face off against Lord English, and the art reflects this tense moment. Vriska stands in the middle of the chaos, with the house juju towering behind her. All of this is reflected in the eye of Lord English himself, his normally radiating visage forced into the position of eight-balls. The detail on English's eye is both very sharp and a little unsettling. So although this art mirrors previous scenes in the comic, it adds its own interesting twists to the presentation to make it an exciting and engaging image.
