Which leads me to think there’s something fundamentally flawed in the way I approach character illustrations that I manage to sidestep entirely when drawing TADC stuff.

I find this extremely vexing because I was trying to draw a bday pic for a character from a different show I really really love, and I found myself getting stuck and bored while working on it. (The image remains incomplete.)

Today I am haunted by a single question: what makes drawing TADC characters more appealing to me than other media I enjoy

As an analytical aside, I take this to mean Jax was an internet-addicted piece of shit. We kinda already know this from Goose’s asks (confirmed 4chan lurker 💀) but I think this is the first time it’s being demonstrated in the show’s animated media. (I consider the 4th wall stuff Jax loser behavior.)

I saw some non-EN speakers trying to dissect Jax’s “chat” line and the explanation I can provide is basically - “chat” is a term video game livestreamers use to refer to their audience. It’s equivalent to “you guys” / “you all” but internet poisoned. Jax saying it also ties into his 4th wall-isms.

Throwing himself on the ground just to get the upper hand…..He’s shameless in all the worst ways. A real piece of work.

I will cherish this image always

“should we put her down, chat?” he’s so cringe. 😭 petition to give Jax the old yeller treatment.

It’s Valentine’s Day! He didn’t get you anything 🥰 #tadc #tadcjax

cute little idea where those shadowy dream versions of Jax and Ragatha from Episode two are physical manifestations of Pomni’s consciousness, basically shoulder angel and shoulder devil #tadc #digitalcircus #theamazingdigitalcircus

realized i didn't post the sketches/warm-ups i did for this here #MyArt #TADC #Jax

In the past I’ve peeled myself away from Jax type (annoying guy) characters even though I liked them bc I was self conscious about it. I think Jax might be the only instance where I didn’t reel myself in and hghghfhfhfhfgfhfhfhfhdhdhdhdjhdhdhdhsjdhdhdhsjdhshajfj

I like Jax so much it makes me really mad
