#malfood

Filled up another notepad with doodles, which means its sketchdump time again!! Once again there's quite a bit so I'm divvying it up into two parts. Here's the first half, featuring my OC Spice Trader (and her various friends and foes) since they made up the majority of the doodles:

This is one is mostly just concepty-stuff, but I did squeeze some fluff into this batch too (a lot of cake chef Madeleine since I was trying to redesign her at the time).

A small little Spice Trader thing a did as an aside: some mock-concept art for Malgelatin, one of the many food-themed baddies the Spice Trader is at least partially responsible for inadvertently creating and now has to put with during her adventure.

While the Spice Trader mainly excels in ranged combat using her pepper mill cannon, she always keeps her trusty pestle on hand to pummel baddies when she finds herself thrown into close-culinary combat.

Given her puny 10-year old arms, it isn't the most effective tool in her arsenal, but swinging a blunt piece of stone into some shins is still a reliable way to give herself some breathing room (also she lost the matching mortar, so it isn't good for much else).

Just a simple doodle of the Spice Trader I sorta forgot about; I'm pretty sure I meant to put this in the ref sheet I did for her a long while back, but never did cause I didn't know where to fit it (that or I was just lazy).

I thought it was really cute though, so I decided to make it presentable and upload it on its own.
