🌌💡My tribute to OMORI💡🌌

Zoom in please, there's a bunch of tiny details!! Can you spot every reference to the game?? 👀

I finished this in 2023 after working on it for over 3 months (with breaks and homework getting in the way ofc!). I've just edited the Omori in the middle because it looked a bit off, but everything else is from back then! This is my largest illustration so far, my computer was lagging SO BADLY (like, seriously) because of that, and I was still kind of a noob in digital art at the time, so tbh I'm still very happy this piece ended up existing at all!!

Since I was little I've always loved making drawings with a lot of characters and stuff in my sketchbooks and the like, so being able to actually do something like that in a digital illustration felt like a big achievement and a little tribute to myself as well hehe

Here are some of my fave close ups + the longest timelapse you'll ever see in your life probably (yep, I made individual pieces of most characters featured here as well, I'll post those later on!). If you're having trouble playing the video you can watch it here too!

There isn't any Spaceboy merch except for the blind bag keychain so I came up with a shirt design :D

Took a bit more than an hour

Also u can't see the cape but it's there (or mb I forgot to draw it uhh I forgot-)

And this is what it would prob look like if it was on a shirt

I got inspired by this

the first of which is my sort-of redesign of SB, I js inculded a bunch of headcanons and stuff I personally thought would look cool tbh

the orange/yellow around the eyes is meant to look similar to an emperor penguins', because I feel like SB kinda had a theme of cold and birds going on, and the birds w the coldest environment (iirc) are Emperor Penguins

also because uh something something cant touch penguins bc thin layer of oil on their feathers that protects them from the cold something something if the layer is broken they are easily exposed to the cold and could die something something spaceboy's heart is gone something something needing to break through defenses in SXH battle in a way...
