This is a story/concept I came up last year. Where kids(or anyone under 18) with troubles would be transported to another world and be taken care of by a “Guardian” until or if they’re ready to return back to earth. It’s heavily inspired by 1980-1990’s cartoons such as mlp, carebears, etc.

The story would follow Nova and Astro, who was a new appointed guardian as he tries his best to learn to take care of her. This is the main plot I had while drawing this, As you can see some things changed including Nova’s design. I originally drew a bunch of kiddos on a canvas and picked one, nova was the winner (tho Marianne and Arthur were really close!!). Who knows they might come back.

I then redesigned her to correlate wit Astro, like giving her “Astro” puffs and such! The other hairstyle is for winter. I made her rainbows more saturated and changed her ribbons to bracelets, then bam she was done!

Astro is a very energetic dog who’s a bit of a jock! He’s so naive an playful that he’s still referred to as a pup, he’s also the newest guardian! Since he’s new to being a guardian he still has trouble understanding how to take care of Nova, good thing his friends are here to help!
