❄️ about:

heyo, I'm Snoey/Holoska! I'm a SFW artist who likes making cozy illustrations, character designs, cute ship art and silly comics ✨

I mostly draw Undertale fanart, and you'll see a lot of my Underswap take and Undertale post-pacifist future - you can find more info on those in the links below! I also frequently draw Soriel and take part in Soriel Week every year, and occasionally draw Deltarune fanart too.

please note that I'm autistic and a very quiet and anxious person, so I'm not the best at socialising. I do appreciate receiving asks, but if I take a while to respond or don't reply, please don't take it personally! I'm also a pretty slow artist so periods of inactivity will occur from time to time.

thanks for visiting!

Underswap MH (new overview post coming soon)

Undertale Pacifist Family (new overview post coming soon)

my soriel and alphyne kids were first posted in february 2017, but the ideas for them go back as far as september 2016 when my soriel and alphyne miis had kids in tomodachi life 3DS:

while the rest of my undertale fankids were designed in 2022, something I've never shared is that glitter and muffin also originate from tomodachi life way back then, but turning them into actual characters was... more complicated.

utpf glitter is mettaton's adopted kid, but tomodachi glitter was the kid mettaton had with lah, the ghost girl from sonic: night of the werehog. as far as tomodachi crackships go it was pretty cute given that they're both pink ghosts associated with cameras 💖

(I don't remember why she had red glasses. might've been trying to approximate purple eyes for lack of eye colour options)

muffin, however, is a different story.

utpf muffin's relation to muffet is unspecified, but tomodachi muffin - originally named buffet - was the kid muffet had with... a sentient banana man named A Banana.

if this isn't enough of a trainwreck already I must point out that A Banana was the son of knuckles the echidna. also buffet ended up dating tails.

her origin as a banana-spider child is the reason why muffin has blonde hair.

oh neat! I will gladly accept the excuse to not dread turning another year older in 6 months' time :'D

The muffin look-alike is entirely pink because she’s supposed to be related to muffet as well as Eight from Numberblocks, as the fact they appear in is a crossover called Octoblock’s in Love!

I can't lie I did have to look up ersatz in the fear that this is some 67-esque new meme I'm too old for, so the realisation of "oh it's just german" was a relief jhfgkjdfh

anyway I don't mind my art/fankids being used like this if it's just for fun rather than like, actual character designs you intend to use for something. but these are cute, I really like muffin's colours and that pink on glitter is pretty!

I think when it comes to community AUs you can consider any take to be 'the canon version' to you! if someone out there has a version that best aligns with your own headcanons and preferences, feels the most fitting to you or just does something you really like with the concept, no one can stop you from deciding it's your ideal version of that AU and the canon one in your heart. and if that happens to be mine I'm very flattered ahah 💜

aaaaaa gosh this is super sweet thank you ;_; I do still think about my sonic fankids now and then, I love those little guys forever!! and it warms my heart that they helped inspire you 💜

I did indeed delete a lot of my old sonic posts, unfortunately it's always been a bad habit of mine to not look back on my old art with fondness. I think it was also before tumblr added the ability to disable reblogs and mute post notifications, because any time I see someone like a bunch of my old sonic art and then follow me I just feel bad about it like "ohhh you are going to be So disappointed I don't draw that anymore"

however I do still have those refs buried in my art folders, so just for you here they are again under the read more :']

if I have to pick just one... I'll say toriel, sans, papyrus and frisk (and a reluctant flowey) all living together on the surface. it's basic, but it's the entire foundation for how I view their lives post-pacifist :'>

firstly it's potentially canon - if frisk chooses to stay with toriel - as both the 1st anniversary Q&A and the 5th anniversary alarm clock winter dialogue imply that toriel either lives with sans and papyrus or very close to them, and evidently flowey joins the surface at some point. given that sans moves in with toriel in 2 neutral endings (plus papyrus in the version he's alive for), there's no reason they couldn't do so in the pacifist ending too.

and to explain why it's my favourite: please enjoy several smaller headcanons and thoughts that result from it :D

obviously I don't think sans and toriel moving in together is immediately romantic, I imagine they have their own rooms when they first move in and it takes at least a couple years of slow burn before they become a couple. but as time passes and they grow closer, sans spends less and less time in his room until toriel's room just naturally becomes their room

the bros' tradition of sans reading papyrus bedtime stories continues on the surface, often joined by frisk and a lovingly-eavesdropping toriel

think about all the new books toriel gets to read by the fireplace, now with a small round skeleton asleep on her lap like a cat

on clear nights sometimes sans stays up late to look at the real stars, and toriel joins him and points out the constellations she remembers from a lifetime ago ✨

since papyrus implies sans tried baking a butterscotch pie, sans getting to try toriel's recipe for real and her helping improve his baking would be cute 🥧

speaking of cooking: hey remember toby's on-the-spot fanfiction from the 10th anniversary stream about how toriel could teach papyrus to actually cook

I love the idea of toriel and papyrus becoming close friends!! besides that sans and toriel need someone to yell at them when their jokes get out of control, having sans and papyrus around would be great for toriel. getting to raise frisk clearly brings her joy, but even though life is better on the surface, her protective instincts and grief from losing 8 children aren't going to disappear overnight. with the bros around, she can trust them both to look out for frisk and they can help ease her overprotective tendencies and loneliness ❤️‍🩹 (of course frisk does get into Various Shenanigans under the bros' watch, but that's par for the course where they're involved and toriel is hardly a stranger to shenanigans herself)

dunkle sans is a fandom classic for a reason, frisk dragging sans into caring again and him becoming their lesser dad is too sweet and destroys me forever ❤️

further on the topic of dad sans: sans being flowey's unwanted unofficial stepdad is hilarious and nothing will convince me otherwise. the soulless flower kid who tried to play god now having to live a peaceful domestic life with the 8 year old who pulled him kicking and screaming out of said playing god, his mother who doesn't know he's her long-dead son, the creator of his fanclub in several timelines, and worst of all that smiley trashbag who's now dating his mother is simply incredible. the catastrophic awkwardness of it all is The Point. the potential is unlimited. chef's kiss

look at these sprites from the first newsletter and tell me they aren't the perfect goofy lil family

(These are the only completed ones so far, once I finish the rest I'll share them too. As long as I'm not bothering you)

aaaa the rabbit guards!! some very good bunnies right there ✨🐇

I mean they'd probably still look pretty dead

this is in my pinned post but I don't mind reiterating it: I did watch a few playthroughs of undertale yellow when it first released, but I didn't play it for myself and I can't say I'm invested in its story or characters. I think clover's cute enough, but the fallen humans have never been a part of undertale that interests me very much and I don't have more of an attachment to clover than any other fallen human designs out there, nor am I interested in making my own designs.

I've been aware of it for years but never gotten into it; pretty much the only thing about it I'm familiar with is the spamton theme big bang, which I found in a video on the spamton sweepstakes rather than its actual intended context ahah. awesome song though :D

although I ended last year's anniversary ask blog event on a "see you next year maybe" note, I've decided I won't be running it this year. for one thing I want to add more askable characters and I have neither the time nor inspiration to work on dialogue sprites right now, but I also think it'd just be more fun for the 10th anniversary next year :] (as much as the thought of my underswap being 10 years old is. Terrifying)

my plan for this anniversary was to try and get that overview post I've mentioned a few times done, but... to make that I need to finish the main cast's overworld sprites, and getting 7 more characters fully sprited in a little over 2 weeks is incredibly wishful thinking 💔

alas, your life shall remain your own... for now

honestly even with four chapters and half of deltarune's story at our hands, I still just don't feel inclined to make any AU art for it! I barely know anything about deltarune AUs anyway, but I maintain the same feeling I've had since chapter 1 that I don't feel I can do anything meaningful with it until I have the full story to work with. I've nothing against the rest of the fandom making their many dess designs and fanmade chapters and different swaps, it's just a me thing.
