I hope everybody knew that I was definitely going to draw this crossover and I was going to lose my mind over it. Also I guess I finally get to show off some proper designs since I never really post things about Empires members other than Jimmy. Uh. I don’t think there’s things I need to explain here, least, I hope I don’t. But if you have design questions I will GLADLY talk about my Hermits and Empires guys.

(reblogs with tags or comments are super appreciated. Thankyuuuuuuuu)

Hang on I'm not caught up but did. Did the Hermits just name their empire Hermitopia

listen all i keep thinking about re: hermempirescraft smp crossover is that, for the first time, joe hills and oli orionsound will be in the same room

@shadeswift99 ‘s post about how Pix & the Vigil would deal with ZombieCleo in the hermempirescraft AU really just grabbed my imagination and wouldn’t let go.

I know Scar’s fit isn’t. a Cowboy fit. But everybody in the fandom draws it as if it is anyways, so like, why not go full throttle. I did just make the jacket a vest but honestly that’s kinda all I needed to do. And add gloves. He’s a cowboy now! And of course, more showing off my S2 Jimmy design since a lot of people seemingly missed my art of him from before. Excited for this duo. Yeehaw.

(reblogs w tags/comments are appreciated. I do not care how unhinged said tags are. thankyu)

So, Bdubs showed up and immediately declared himself a god? Well, why not make stained glass style art of him. I was messing around a lot with this one, and honestly I really like how it turned out. 

(reblogs w tags/comments are appreciated. Yes, even the unhinged ones. Thankyu)

Has it only been like. a few days since the God Bdubs episode dropped? Yea. Do I care? No. This is mostly just me trying to figure out how to draw him, I think I like the yellow cape design more, so it’s gonna be the one I go with. Also thanks to @shadesofvermillionvoid for the dialogue on the bottom!!

(reblogs w tags/comments are appreciated. Thankyu)

Trio I never could have predicted, but am absolutely enamored with??? Like. What is up with them? They are so. strange to me. Never in a million years could I have predicted this. Ok I could have prolly figured out Cleo and Joey but Xisuma being there is like. He is in the wrong room. I am obsessed. Anyways RIP Reginald, you will live on in a pirate ship.

(relogs with tags/comments are appreciated. Please do be unhinged in the tags. We are all deranged and feral here. Thankyu)

Doodle dump #2 for the crossover because it’s living in my brain now. I did censor Joe’s hand I will put the uncensored version under the cut. Also yea Grian’s still gonna have his sculk bits. I think it’s fun.

(reblogs with tags/comments are appreciated. Thankyu)

Even More doodles. I have never drawn Shelby before, would you believe it?

(reblogs w tags/comments are appreciated. Please feel free to scream in the tags. thankyu)

Me and @shadesofvermillionvoid decided to make an AU dedicated to Tango being Shelby’s apprentice solely because we didn’t get enough of it and we both love it. I won’t be explaining too much in this post just in case anybody has any questions, but just know Hermempires does still happen in this AU. Tango just wasn’t on HC when it did. Also yea he gets corrupted at least once, it’s fine.

(relogs with tags/comments are appreciated. Thankyu)

I am a few days late but I don’t care, Sculk Cub is. So...So....He’s so. That’s it. Also it is hard to tell but his eyes literally are just one color, there is no like. Pupils or Irises it’s just glossy

(reblogs w tags/comments are appreciated. Thankyuuuu)

More miniDubs, in a variety of flavors :D

(reblogs w tags/comments are appreciated. thankyuuuu)

Hermempirescraft becomes real in [NaN] hours

I'm scrambling so much because I'm not caught up with either of them but MAN...Hermempirescraft real... I can't wait to see what will happen I can't wait to see how many clips have to be edited out for family friendliness

I know it's a bit early in both series to say this, but... Hermempirescraft Season Twone?

Hermempirescraft Season Twoine! The reason the original Hermempirescraft AU worked was that both series had a season end in a catastrophic event that was fairly easy to line up together (and it was also a not insignificant amount of fix-it lol). Still, as the Empires lore develops more, I'll absolutely be on the lookout for how to cross the two over in new and interesting ways. Thank you for reminding me about that, I'd forgotten how fun it was!

Hermempirescraft Jimmy should still get canary wings except this time he has two servers’ worth of People With Experience to help him.

YESSSSSS - although given who we're dealing with here, I'm not exactly sure if "help" is the right word -

Jimmy's wings start coming in a week after the Hermempirescraft fusion. By now, he's just about figured out that something about him spells bad news in situations where death is a possibility. Every time he's walked past the Boatem hole, somebody falls into it, and he's completely given up saying hi in chat in the morning because of how often the greeting is "coincidentally" followed by a death message. In this world, though, respawn seems to be a more sure thing than in the Empires world alone, so it doesn't really cause him any stress. It's just funny and kind of annoying. The wings, though...are a bit harder to come to terms with. It was just really sudden, and it itches, and how is he supposed to use these things when he can barely even land with an elytra without breaking an ankle on a good day - !

Thankfully (?) he has Grian and fWhip! They're here! They have wings! They're ready to help! By giving wildly conflicting advice! Loudly! At the exact same time! :D

Grian genuinely wants to be helpful, but he's just had his wings for so long that he doesn't really serve as a great teacher for how to adjust to them at the beginning. Also, his "bully Jimmy" instincts are so strong that most of his "advice" just boils down to flying loops around Jimmy's head while saying "why can't you just do this, Tim! Just fly like this!" Meanwhile, fWhip has a lot more recent experience with navigating newfound winged-ness, but his daredevil tendencies really don't mesh well with Jimmy's desire to Not Die Eight Million Times in the process of learning. Any question along the lines of "well how did you figure this part out?" usually ends up with fWhip showing off his wide collection of scars from minor scrapes and scratches earned bouncing off rooftops and clipping fences as he zoomed around the Grimlands to improve his muscle memory.

Between the two of them, though, Jimmy does learn a lot! By flying away from them. Rapidly. They've concocted some game for him to "improve reflexes" that involves playing chicken with a piece of lit TnT, and Jimmy isn't really sure where this whole thing went so badly off the rails but he knows damn well he doesn't want anything to do with that -

Of course, after he does manage to get airborne in the combination of panic and explosion updraft, fWhip and Grian claim that that was their plan all along and are very pleased with themselves for being such good teachers. They genuinely are proud of Jimmy, though! They take off and fly with him as he woops and spins and enjoys the feel of the breeze through his new feathers, and they all land in a laughing heap when Jimmy realizes he doesn't have the built up muscle to stay flying for long yet. That will develop with time, though - time, more "fun games", and many more teaching sessions to come.
