Tried drawing The Spine from Steam Powered Giraffe without his torso chassis...

I used the head design from David's makeup in the 'Hot on the Trail' music video, and I deliberately made him look more smooth snake-like rather than an actual spinal column, but with a coccyx/sacrum like end.

Wanted to share this awesome Horror portrait/charicature art my talented friend Ross Lee did of me! (The same Ross Lee from 'Ross Lee's Ghoulies' and 'Chute!' TV Shows! (which I starred in one but that's another story))

Firstly is me having my throat slashed by an undead Jack The Ripper! 💀

Then we have a sketch of me as some kind of Lovecraftian tentacle monster! 🐙

Thanks Rossy, they are amazing! Xxx

Did I mention, my BFF is a very talented musician?

@samkuchingdraws @samfrancis94 sent me this absolutely beautiful piano rendition of one of my fave Steam Powered Giraffe songs, 'It's Cosmic', for my birthday.

I'm so impressed, because SPG haven't ever actually released any of their note music...

It brought a tear to my eye! So beautifully played. 🥺😍 Thanks again hun! 💖

I would like to say a big thank you to my dear friend and wonderful Malaysian artist, @samkuchingdraws for this birthday art!

It's me, surrounded by some of my favourite characters and people! 🥰

From left to right:

The Spine from Steam Powered Giraffe, Professor Elemental, Mister B the gentleman rhymer, BD_1 (Star Wars Droid), Higgs Monaghan (Death Stranding), Heartman (Death Stranding), Egon Spengler (Ghostbusters), Nick Valentine (fallout 4), and Hancock (Fallout 4).

Thanks hun, I love it so much! 💖💖💖

Please follow his page! @samkuchingdraws

Thank you very much to @pandora-writes-stuff and @samfrancis94 for thinking of me and tagging me! 😘

Last Song: 'Back in the swing of things' by Professor Elemental

Last show: The Bastard Son and The Devil Himself

Currently watching: Picard season 3

Currently reading: 'The King in Yellow' by Robert W Chambers, and 'Trigger Warning' by Neil Gaiman (plus a few extra books I started and haven't carried on with yet! I'm a book hoarder!)

Current obsession: Fallout 4. Yes, especially Nick Valentine 💘 and Hancock ❤️. I play it every day to unwind. I also draw and write erotic fan fic from it.

Unrelated obsession: David Michael Bennett, aka. The Spine from Steam Powered Giraffe. A massive unrelenting crush. 💖

Anyone else see this and wanna join in with this too, please do!

I drew 'Cosmica', The daughter of space, from Steam Powered Giraffe's Vice Quadrant album story.

🤍💜💖💜🤍

This was a different style for me to try and fun to do. I love space stuff, and my name/handle has been Cosmic since I was 15, soo... It made sense! 😅

Omg I am sooo in love 😍 with this beautiful art my lovely BFF @samkuchingdraws did for me, of me (well, my Fallout character, who does look a bit like me) with my robot love, Nicky Valentine 💘

Thank you so so much hun!

HAPPY (Nick) VALENTINE'S DAY! 💘

🥰💋💖🌹

Just a couple'a photo edits I did of this pic of me in cosplay as Nick Valentine...💘

A quick Xmassy Spine Sketch I did on Christmas eve!

Massive THANK YOU to the wonderful artist @samkuchingdraws, who painted me this personal artwork of my Fallout 4 character as The Silver Shroud, with my fave fallout boys, Nick Valentine and Hancock for Christmas! ❤️

Thanks again and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

🤍❤️💚✨🎄🎅⛄🎉

(Please be kind, this is my first SPG fiction submitted here...)

Hatchworth stood back and admired his handiwork, hands on his hips, stars in his eyes. He had spent hours decorating Walter Manor for what the humans called 'Christmas' and 'Yule'. It seemed to be a popular celebration, and he wanted to make the Walter Workers feel the jubilant merriment of the season. Shiny metallic tinsel in silver, copper and gold hung around the large family portraits in the halls. Strings of blue and green lights twinkled along the door frames, windows and fireplace. A large fir tree, complete with many sparkly baubles stood in the main entrance hall next to the grand staircases.

A deep reverberating voice behind him stirred him from his thoughts of upcoming festivities, "Hey Hatchworth." he turned to face the tall figure, "Oh Hello The Spine! I have just finished doing the decorations. What do you think?" He looked at him with excited glee. The silver automaton glanced around at the extensive adornment around him. "It's... Very nice. Very... Shiny!" He wasn't sure what else to say about it. The shorter robot was gazing up at him with twinkling blue eyes and a pout upon his lips, protruding from under his orange mustache.

The Spine frowned, "Hatchy, what are you doing?" Hatchworth pointed to the ceiling above them, where hung from a piece of red ribbon, a plastic toad figure, with what looked like a toy gun fixed to its back. The Spine stared at it for a few seconds with a look of pure confusion, trying to process what it was. "What the...?!" The other robot piped up, "Its Missile-Toad!" Sudden realisation crossed Spine's electronic brain. He gaped like a fish, then face-palmed. "Hatchy! Do you mean MISTLETOE?!"

Hatchworth laughed awkwardly. He could feel his boiler bubbling from embrassment. The Spine looked down at him and his expression softened to a side smirk. "Oh you are Silly..." He sighed, and leant in close, planting a gentle kiss upon Hatchworth's cheek. "Happy Holidays Hatchy." If Hatchworth could blush, he would have, he felt the circuits in his face heat up. A small spurt of steam escaped from the top of his hat with a toot. The Spine placed a hand on his shoulder and patted it, "And good job on the decorations!" he praised with a wink, before turning and striding off.

Hatchworth touched the place where Spine's lips had touched his face, and smiled to himself contentedly. That was all he wanted for 'Xmas'.

Things which inspired this writing...

A few more The Spine memes from his latest video lol. Sorry not sorry. 🖤🤖❤️

SPG dropped another video of The Spine, and if you pause it at any point, it's really meme worthy with his expressions...

So here's a few I made.

Sorry, not sorry, but its time for another SPG meme!

I randomly came across this photo of SPG, and I just found it very funny coz David looks really out of it!

So I had to make this meme...(Sorry David!)

A sketch of Hatchy (Hatchworth from Steam Powered Giraffe) aka. @samhears

Oh look! It's a Nick Valentine sketch💘

Tried to do it slightly comic booky this time. Not bad for second attempt at drawing him?

I used a photo of myself in Nick V cosplay for the pose reference.
