Drifting where the leaves fall

uhhhh. Well I do draw a lot for my friends. Often as a semi gift or repayment. On occasion they will actually commission me for stuff.

Drift in particular has known me since Pre-school and is one of the closest people to me lol

That being said, Most of the time I spoil them since they spoil me offline relentlessly and I treasure them

🥺 👉👈

They do have plenty of Socials, but they don't post often. They're a very anxious baby and I am officially showing them off for this question hehehehehe.

but their Tumblr is @driftfall which I have tagged more than once and their other socials can be found tied with mine on occasion. Like on artfight I refer to them as well lol. I even tagged them on youtube for Wicks Ad Read and Poor Wick animatic's.

Here's his ref sheet, which does have a lot of info about him on it - https://toyhou.se/33656752.wick#102037818

---------------------------------------------------

Wick is a fox made up of candle wax, who originally would've melted just having close contact with fire. I forgot what lore I came up with originally for why he did this (I'll have to come up with new lore, lol), but he ended up making some sort of deal with the devil so that he would no longer fully melt (He'll still semi-melt a little bit when his emotions are on the extreme side of the spectrum), and he can control fire, however, he'd have to work for ths devil in return.

So Wick secretly works at the casino (he's kept this a secret from any/every person he knows/is friends with outside of the casino) as a card dealer, where he also keeps an ear out and collects valuable info from anyone sitting at, or around, his card table, for the devil. Sometimes he'll be on stage with the band playing his saxophone, however.

Other times, he's working at Porkrind's Emporium as a cashier. When he isn't working, he'll sometimes, if not most of the time, be hanging out with the cup brothers in whatever shenanigans they're getting up to.

---------------------------------------------------

Also, as for the animatics and such Gears has given me, those were both originally joke suggestions from me when they wanted to do something, but was unsure what. It very quickly became a reality when I came home and saw them working on it, lol.

I appreciate/treasure both animatics so much that there aren't any words I can think of to describe how happy I am about them <333

Also, on occasion, I have drawn for Gears and would like go draw more for Gears, but again, I've been struggling heavily with my art for a while qwp Sometimes I can, and it's great when I can, but most of the time, I have heavy artblock that I struggle to get out of, no matter how much I try, which leads to months of nothing being drawn qwp

Heeeeeeyyyy. I did another thing for my friend @driftfall for their Cuphead Oc Wick lmao.

So please enjoy....

'Poor Wick' a Storyboard Animatic ^^

I made it. lmao

I love absolutely EVERYTHING about this and what I talked about regarding writing her with nuance they manage to hit every nail dead-on. For starters this characterization doesn't excuse her abusiveness, nothing should. A character who is fundementally abusive and awful to their partner or in general anyone has no true excuse for their actions because at the end of the day they always have the option to leave them be but choose not to and instead resort to abuse. This however doesn't excuse her actions but instead EXPLAINS them which is a giant difference.

This characterization allows people to understand why kitty is the way she is without ever trying to pass off her actions, especially on some basises like "well Felix gets away with more"—this doesn't free Felix from blame and in fact possibly even puts him to blame more because we get to see kitty's perspective and understands her anger with him yet that STILL doesn't justify what she does, we just understand it now and we can empathize a bit. This allows for character development in two different ways where she could get better and overcome her own issues, or stay in her narcissistic ways and never admit fault, no matter what though these options show that this type of characterization isn't just flat, has depth, and has some nuance too it. This is some of the absolute BEST ways to keep a character's canon negative traits yet without that inherently troubled source of said traits (mysongy and sexism) allows for Kitty to be so much more

Animated icons for:

I finished The Milk carton re-draw!!!!!!

The original is HERE if you would like to compare them heehehehe. ^^

It's been 5 years since I drew the Og woof time flies.

....

I'm so happy with how it came out. Sorry this took so long. I was trying to figure out how to draw one of the new ask's and opened up a bunch of my files to find a reference and he just popped up which led me to impulsively finishing him in under an hour somehow! XD

Decided to doodle a lil mugmutt and ended up doing a full piece somehow lol.

It's just the boy's 'Fighting'

They're enemies... rawr No they didn't fight just to kiss you're imaging things :3

This is for my friend @driftfall based on a nuclear Nightmare story we have where cuphead's a secret alien and Bendy is in the Army sent on a fun lil mission to collect info with his companions. ^^

Ok... so I should be working on stuff.... (ADHD I know lol)

but my room mate the second she noticed I had drawn the Super Mario Brothers wiggled her eyebrows and, I kid you not, said if I started attempting to draw Bowser, that she would start to pay me to draw Bowigi. I can no longer escape her XD

(Not that I mind, I like Bowigi it's cute <3)

So here's your Bowigi Drift XD

Needs a little workin' on but... I think this is a good first attempt at Bowser :D (Also I'm sorry if the ghost puppy has a name. I only watched Jacksepticeye play a little bit of Luigi's haunted manor back when that released and I was sick so I barely remembered any of it QWQ)
