Cringe but free

And yes, I do ship them. <3

I did this with my Numberjacks fanart, I might as well do this with my Little Einsteins fanart too.

Starting off with, of course, the first time I actually drew the characters. (I…still need to get around to drawing Rocket.)

I’d like to think I’ve improved since then tbh

(Also, here’s the reference image I used for Annie’s boots. It was one of the first images to appear when I looked up ‘cowgirl boots’, and I just thought that they fit her to a T.)

Why did I give Annie cowgirl boots? For two reasons:

It’s a reference to the pilot.

I didn’t want to just give everyone except June sneakers. (I usually end up including sneakers with just about every new clothing design I make since I’m terrible at designing shoes.)

Anyway, moving on. Here’s what I made for Halloween last year. (And alongside it, I included a vague lore dump for my fic series, wink-wink.)

Next up, a group of drawings revolving around a sweet little headcanon that I have regarding Annie.

Whenever someone she’s close with is upset, Annie usually just…knows. She then goes into ‘Emergency Comfort Mode,’ and does everything in her power to cheer that person up. Whether it be her big brother Leo’s mood lowering even the slightest, Quincy struggling with his nyctophobia, or June having flashbacks to [REDACTED], Annie becomes their shoulder to cry on.

And it’s clear that her friends appreciate this too. Because whenever Annie is upset…they take the opportunity to return the favour.

Next up is my first attempt at drawing in the Rhythm Heaven style. (And the first time I finally got myself a watermark because I’m a dumbass.) I promise my attempts get better later on-

Here’s what I drew for Christmas…

(Hi Melody. <3)

…and then New Years.

The next drawing is more of a shitpost if anything.

So there was one time when I showed my sister a clip from LE that I found pretty amusing, particularly out of context. She proceeded to comment on how uncanny the laughing animations were, and said something along the lines of, “Wiggling meat things.”

Ah yes, one of my biggest fixations: ‘Wiggling Meat Things’.

So I decided to draw the Little Einsteins…as worms. That’s…literally it.

(They look kinda cute ngl)

The next bunch of drawings is a result of me being bored and deciding to draw one of my favs… (June)

…and sometime afterwards, I did the same with my other fav! (Annie)

And here’s the last LE-related thing I want to crosspost thus far: a sweet little drawing I made for Mother’s Day, entirely based off of a crackpot headcanon!

The crackpot headcanon in question: The first time I drew the LE’s, I joked about June being the (future) daughter of MC Adore and the Tap Trial Girl from Rhythm Heaven, due to her sharing some similarities to them both. Then the headcanon snowballed into another headcanon in which both franchises take place in the same universe. Then it became legitimate - I eventually realised it would actually make sense since they’re both very music-oriented, and neither of them make any sense if you think about them too hard. Plus it makes worldbuilding in my fics more fun.

I’ve also drawn MC and TTG’s younger selves before, so I might as well share those pieces too.

Here’s when I first drew MC for Valentines…

…and when I drew them both together. <3

[Link bc I hit the image limit]

I made a few drawings for this month. (And one of them is still only on my Wattpad art book because of the whole ‘confidence’ thing I mentioned before. I may be cringe and free, but I’m still not fully confident enough to share absolutely everything I post there.)

Anywho, let’s just get on with it.

Starting off strong with Transbian Hatsune Miku, feat. Humanized Transfem Numberjack 5!

And speaking of Humanized Numberjacks, here’s the rest of the main four. (Demigirl 3, ace 4, transfem 5 and bi 6.)

Aaaaand…

…obligatory June.

Remember how I brought up in the post that I had a transfem headcanon for Numberjack 5, and that I had a set of drawings focusing around this hc that were based off of the MV of a song?

Well, here they are! The song that this was based on is ‘Ego Renegade Boy’ by FLAVOR FOLEY (or Ego Renegade Girl in this case), a Vocaloid song.

For those who are unaware as to what Vocaloid is, it’s a vocal synthesizer software where people can control digital voicebanks (consensually provided by real people) to make them sing. There’s usually characters that are marketed alongside these voices, with the most popular example by far being ‘Hatsune Miku’ (who I’m wearing a shirt of right now).

I could ramble on about Vocaloid all day, but that’s only semi-relevant to this, so I’ll move on. (If you want to know more…you could look it up.)

Ego Renegade Boy is quite a recent Vocaloid song that’s about being trans, and it uses things like murder and court trial imagery to represent ‘killing’ one’s old self, and being treated like they killed somebody.

…I don’t want to bore you by rambling on any further, sooo…enjoy the art!

Original song:

I’m aware that I could pass this off as pride art, but:

I made this before pride

I’m not very comfortable with linking back said art book rn due to “confidence reasons,” to put it mildly.

Putting that aside, though, here’s some of my art featuring my humanised Numberjacks because, as my account says, I am cringe but free.

Starting off with my designs for the characters themselves.

(Heh, love Magical Girl 3. So cute and fitting.)

(I think 5 would really love sunflowers. Dunno why. She just gives me those vibes y’know? I also like to think that she’s the one who designed the main four’s hero outfits since the show mentioned that she’s quite fashionable. It’s also very funny to imagine 3 begging 5 to make the former’s outfit a magical girl design when the others allow her to go on missions-)

(Fun fact that I mentioned in the art book: Some aspects of 6’s design here are little gifts from the other members of the main four. 3 gave him the patches, 4 gave him the shades and 5 gave him the sunflower brooch under his number brooch.)

(I love this one.)

(9 is gorgeous too.)

Now, here’s a piece I made for Easter sometime after I’d drawn the main four for April Fools.

I love her. <3 (/p ofc)

…aaaaand take a wild guess who my favourite character is.

(Also, as for the headcanon mentioned alongside the doodle in the bottom right…I headcanon 5 as transfem. My dumbass younger self somehow mistook her for a boy, and now I’m kinda just rolling with it. Hell, I even made a set of drawings based on this hc that I’ll share soon. ;) )

And now, here’s what you’re probably here for.

Yes, I drew the Meanies too, dw.

(I actually really like Spooky’s design, along with the Shape Japer’s. I actually used to be not-too-confident in my ability to design clothes. And now…look at this.)

(…Okay I’m still not the most confident in the world-)

(Let’s be honest, I did not need to change a thing about this design-)

As mentioned earlier, I also have some other drawings that I want to share as well, albeit on a separate post. I’m choosing to do this for two reasons.

I want this post to have some space and feel less ‘crowded’, in a sense.

It’s a set of drawings based on the MV for a song.
