I want to see you. I want to see you, but— You know, I wonder why? The sounds of our hearts don't resonate.
#end roll#russell seager#chrissell#kurirase#informant (end roll)#my art#realised it could be cool to put some lyrics in the post when it comes to this song-based stuff! so i'm trying that now#this one's pretty directly based on the mv for the song :>#the left and right shots especially and the line frame aspect are both referenced from the video. center russell is just inspired tho#btw the door is chris' for anyone who isn't as brainrotted. apartment 105 babyyy#chrissell playlist art#this inclusion is possibly a little biased over how much of an absolute HEAD BANGER it is#but it fits with a vibe of missing chris while knowing he can't go back#perhaps also having wanted to spend more time with him before but feeling too held back#and acknowledging a feeling of having ruined what they had#his 'cold heart crumbles apart' :)

young adult chrissell AU concepts :>

and some related doodles

#end roll#russell seager#chris (end roll)#chrissell#kurirase#my art#more little stuff for now although i swear i have bigger art cooking#did most of this like a week ago but only finally got around to cleaning up the main design sketches enough to post#i first sketched designs for this au FOREVERRR ago like it's possibly the earliest one i came up with 😭#and just never shared them bc i wasn't super satisfied yet#chris didn't change as much but i'm much happier with russell's look now. that and the general improvement compared to before too omg#got some notes about the au written there as u can see#although some details are subject to change still too#the heights are undecided btw LOL. although i figure chris got a growth spurt at some point and russell didn't. pat pat#anyway. i lov them. i love chrissell

more rpgmaker experimentation with a potential little scenario :>

#end roll#russell seager#chris (end roll)#chrissell#kurirase#my art#pixel art#i've hardly had anything to post lately i feel so BADDD ABOUT IT SOB#so here's more rpgm snippets at least ;;#OF THE BABIES THE LOVELIES AUAUGGHGHHGAAA#even tho i probably shouldn't show too much if i really go through with making it something legit#i really wanna have more full painted art again to show soon but just have been struggling w getting myself to work on it ABKFJKAAA#the flower is an anemone btw and kind of a reference to a flower fairy au for them i spent FOREVERRR researching flowers over sometime back#settled w that one for russell for several reasons even if not as thoroughly perfect as i wanted. it kinda was just meant to be overall#heheh sorry chris that one does have a cheesy meaning tho :333#also ignore the horrible map omg i threw it together in like two mins just so i'd have somewhere to put the stuff

i finally set up another of my chrissell artworks for wallpaper engine 💪

my original post for the drawing is here. it's still one of my favorites i've done of them :> steam workshop link for using the wallpaper is below:

Steam Workshop::END ROLL - Chris & Russell Cityscape [4K]
steamcommunity.com

(update 3/15/2025: changed the default visualizer and added slightly more customization options for them. since i realised the one i had there was a little too distracting for my taste)

#end roll#russell seager#chris (end roll)#chrissell#non-art tag#kindaaaa?? still is but it's not like a post for the drawing itself#i've been meaning to do more of these for SO LONG omg#kind of picked one of the least convenient pieces i could've KBJFKBJF (the whole far background was all one layer before sob)#but i love this pic a lot so it still felt like a good choice to prioritize#BTW i learnt only when about to upload this one that my whole approach for doing them was actually horribly unoptimized this entire time 😭#went back and adjusted the cozy sleepy one where i could bc that was somehow the worst#but i don't have the energy left to fix the other one too at least atm. hopefully eventually....#i didn't realise uncropped blank pixels would affect so much of the vram usage sob

some semi-recent maou!russell concept doodles for an AU i've been spinning around in my brain for a while

#end roll#russell seager#my art#doodles#you would NEVER BELIEVE who else is in the au and what happens between them 😲😲😱😱😱#(spoiler: it's a chrissell au)#GASP!!!!!!!!!!#i have so many i collect them like infinity stones.... and have so much written down about them....#everyone's in this one tho actually which is rare for me#chris is the hero/yuusha btw :333#i've gotta start designing him at some point too (and potentially everyone else if i wanna draw one of the main art ideas i have sob...)#but russell was extra exciting bc i got to be SO self-indulgent w the design#been too sick to draw at all these past few days so i'm just scraping up some of things i've already done 😔😔#not portrayed or anything but this technically is kindaaa#chrissell#so i'll tag that at least still

recent pixel art dump!!

chris portrait from a few weeks ago <3

did some more russell expressions (the first russell ones are here)

and um.... 😭 i kind of snagged rpgmaker vx ace while it was free recently.....

(some more of their portrait expressions under the cut so this post doesn't get too massive)

#end roll#chris (end roll)#russell seager#chrissell#pixel art#my art#bonus informant portrait ver too but idk if that's enough to tag him over#ANYWAY UH YEAH this stuff is most of what i've been doing for the past week or two......#once i had rpgmaker i knew it'd be too hard to not give in and get carried away 😔#i've been fooling around and gotten some uhhh ideas but we will see still whether i can actually manage to go through with anything LOL#i have a bad track record with much more reasonable projects#(THAT I STILL PLAN TO FINISH SOMEDAY THOUGH WAHHH)

alt below without chris' little question mark:

#end roll#chris (end roll)#russell seager#chrissell#my art#IS IT OBVIOUS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS NEW CHIBI STYLE#also as can probably be deduced i came across chris really late in my game HELP 😭😭#somehow never used his compass despite following a guide the whole time#and would've missed him entirely probably if not for the completionist side of me going around for the plant watering quest last minute#THANK GOD FOR THAT#it also means i have the perfect excuse to draw them together for this tho <33333#and man. high guilt russell first seeing happy dream chris........#big hurt .#maximum hurt actually

some omori-style chris and russell tag pics from several months ago that i never posted 🥺

i'd planned to do ones interacting with sunny and kel too for a whole set sort of, but idk whether i'll ever get around to those by now with how much i've moved on from omori, so especially since they could've totally been posted on their own, it feels like about time to free these poor babies

the other concepts/sketches below as a bonus:

#end roll#russell seager#chris (end roll)#chrissell#omori#my art#i always ramble in my tags but ngl my brain is too empty to come up with anything else to say here right now BJKAKBJF#uhhh they be cuties fr

The boy with bloodied hands - A Russell Playlist

Youtube | Spotify (note that Spotify is missing some songs)

My Russell playlist that I've been working on for several months! Meant to cover basically his entire character arc to the best of my ability haha. It's a decent mix of mainly English and Japanese songs. First half is the past (based on personal interpretation), and the second half is the happy dream. I really tried to keep a good flow with the songs both lyrically and sound-wise where I could, so I definitely recommend listening in order! As well as looking into the translations for the non-English songs because they are some of the most amazing fits fr. The Youtube version of the playlist uses videos with translations for any I could find it for, to help with that a little.

It has over 70 songs, so uh. buckle up haha. Song choices are subject to change here and there ofc, especially when I find new things, but all in all I feel like it's definitely been ready to share :>

Several great songs in the second half were picked from my sibling's suggestions, so big kudos to them too!! There's also a small couple from other people out there associating them with End Roll already, but I mostly tried to avoid that overall. I had to be pretty picky to keep it from being even longer, so it's not at all everything I associate with him of course either. To anyone who listens through, I hope you enjoy!!

(Obligatory CW for, well, Russell's life)

#end roll#russell seager#playlist#non-art tag#i am completely normal about russell end roll#putting this on this blog because honestly my main blog feels like more just for reblogging at this point#also bc my chrissell one will for sure be put here with its relation to so much of the art i've been doing#that one will def take a bit longer before i can share it btw bc i sort... of decided to write explanations for every single song on it...#i would with this one too if not for the fact that it's almost twice as long AFBJKA#shared this one on twt and bsky already a week or two ago but i put it off longer here oops 😭 since i had more i wanted to type up for it#much apologies to anyone this is old content to#while i'm here btw.. i swear i've been cooking actual art SOBBBBB#might try to start showing some wips sometimes here just to keep the end roll tag a little more alive#i've been deep in many wips hell ehehe... been working on some bigger things this past while in addition to some normal art and AU stuff#and trying something different too that should be ready to share very soon 👉👈
