I made this. It doesn't look like a thing made by me, it looks so polished. There are a lot of things that could be improved, like the ... uh, face, but oh well. I am calling it done.
Using Syrup brush was good. The Jade Bots don't look exactly like that, but I like to draw a simplified version of them. The human is my Guardian in his Dragon Hunter set.
Anyway, let me explain the joke:
End of Dragons added Jade Bots, which are little personal assistants that can take 2 upgrades. Getting the upgrades takes some doing and you can't easily swap them. Most people set them to get additional crafting materials, of which blood, bone, claws and leather are the most valuable. Which, uh begs the question... from where?
Basically, the joke is the dissonance from the cute, clean, sort of iPhone way they are presented and how players actually wind up using them
This the Jade Bot Trailer and, yeah, that's the vibe they have in lore/story:

I love the hearts.

I added the hearts last minute, it just needed the jade bot responding somehow.
