@quazies I can't believe the next episode of Lil Pootis is coming out already- I'm super excited! I might've just lost interest in TF2, but I'll still be sure to watch it when it comes out. Quaz is a super talented animator and artist, and it's always a treat when they post. Can't wait!

Semi-Permanent Hiatus

Hello everyone! It's certainly been a while since I posted anything here, and I apologize for the lack of updates. I'm also very sorry that this is the update that you're getting...

QUICKLY, to clear the waters, some questions you may have!

Is Kid Fortress cancelled and/or gone forever?

No! Kid Fortress is, as stated, on a semi-permanent hiatus. This may sound like a fancy way of saying it's cancelled, but it's not! Putting it simply, I've fallen out of interest with the franchise and find myself not enjoying the artwork I produce for it now. I don't want to push myself into doing something I don't take pleasure in. That being said...

Will Kid Fortress come back in the future? When can I expect it?

Maybe. It depends on if I decide to come back to it anytime soon, which is also heavily dependent on many other outside factors! With this, I unfortunately can't give you any projected date where I might find interest in it again. Don't lose hope entirely, though! As mentioned, this isn't the END of Kid Fortress!

Can I create my own Kid Fortress content in your absence?

This one's a little complicated. Fan creations are heavily appreciated, and I'll reblog it here when I can! (use the tag #kidfortressfanart if you do, I'd love to see!) On the other hand, I wouldn't appreciate someone trying to extend the story line, or someone attempting to continue what I've left off. I know it sounds selfish, but it's just a personal preference of mine.

I like your art, where can I find you if I just want to see more?

My personal art blog is @crowliphale ! It's been linked in the pinned post since the start of the blog, and is directly mentioned in the bio!

---

And with that, I bid adieu. I'd like to say one last time that I'm so grateful for the love and attention this blog has received in the somewhat short amount of time it's been active, and I'm so incredibly happy to know I've brought joy to so many people in the TF2 community! I don't think I'll EVER get over the fact that lu-undy, birbwell, AND sgt-scrimblo are following this account! I'VE BEEN ADMIRING THOSE PEOPLE FOR AGES! Ahem, anyways....

This isn't goodbye, but it is "see you later!"

Swineswinr asks: Ludwig! What kind of doctor is your father? (as in surgeon, gp, etc.) Do you want to be the same kind or something else?

Ludwig: Vater is a surgeon, just like his vater before him! I'm gonna be one too when I grow up!

Ludwig: I hope us moving in the middle of the school year again doesn't drop my science grade...

Lucien: Oh, merci, but I already have my own,

[he produces a small box of candy cigarettes, taking one out and crunching down on it. He seems to have a hint of a grin on his face as he does so]

idk if this has been asked before but do the staff like to draw with the kids or is there like a little arts and craft period and who are the most creative (sorry if I worded this weird )

There's not really a mandated time for the kids to draw, but when one of them starts doodling or crafting they all seem to follow suit with creativity. Here's some of the staff's work, since the kids drawings are currently all on display!

// note: i didn't entirely draw the car or koala haha, i mostly traced them and added in artistic elements later on. ALSO, @river-town-citizen i'm mentioning you so you can know your ask was answered 👍

Ludwig: yes... what about it?

Ludwig: Just because meine Schwester is getting into medicine before me doesn't make her better than me!

spy is such a fancy little gentleman! do you pick out your own outfits?

JJ: Oui, and.... non? I get to pick which outfit, but ma mère puts them together for me.

// also, just gonna apologize once more for how long the hiatus has been! I didn't even realize how burnt out I was until I started my break and then. Haha. Now we're here.

Anyways, please know I am still interested in this stuff and I do plan to continue it! If I weren't I'd let y'all know 👍

Little german boy should learn russian

Ludwig: Oh, I never thought of that...! Misha, how hard is it to learn Russian?

Misha: Don't know, not learning Russian right now. Maybe mama can teach you!

Ludwig: Ja! We should ask when your vater picks us up!

JJ: You shouldn't start learning another language while you're still learning English, Ludwig.

Ludwig: Oh. You're right, sorry Misha!

Misha: Is okay, was not getting hopes up.

what type of music do y'all like?

Jane: Father does not listen to music, and I do not like mom's prissy dancey stuff! I do not think I like music... Well... maybe a waltz....

Dell: Pawpaw an' Daddy can play the guitar real nice, my favorite times are when they let me come out an' fall asleep on the patio while they play! 'S country, right?

Misha: Mama likes to play russian classic, papa likes modern rock. I am not having opinions on either- Ah, I listen to Ludwig practice violin sometimes. I like that.

Tavish: Ah, nothin' like a good tune from a bagpipe.

Ludwig: I like classical music! Though, I also really enjoy jazz and.. funk, I believe? The ones with saxophones and accordions!

Luci: Ma mère listens to Edith Piaf, and a lady called Barbara. I don't have many opinions on music, but I prefer when mère plays these instead of her sad italian men.

Jeremy: You know me, ain't goin' a day without some Tom Jones!

Mick: I quite like Sinatra's early hits, though the Delltones'll always have a special place in m' aussie heart.

Pyro: [they excitedly murmur about madonna and the lovin' spoonful]

// yes Madonna's "material girl" came out in the 1980s. but Tom Jones's "Sex Bomb" came out in 1999, so allow me to drea- /hj

Dad and grandad Hale

Were more clothed. Where’d you get your…

Stripped down fashion sense?

Saxton: I figure there's nothin' to be ashamed of when it comes to muscle, especially my muscles!

Saxton: 'Sides, the only reason my dad looks all dressed up for those photos is 'cause the Hales' had only just acquired Mann Co., we had appearances to pretend to keep!
