A little thing with Fold I wanted to get out of my system before I have to get down to some work stuff tomorrow 🤍📄

P. S. I think one of the reasons I fell instantly in love with Fold is because the fella gives me TFP Starscream vibes and I've had a crush on the latter for pretty much half of my life.

What is Coraline's opinion on Man Ray and Dirty Bubble?

Wanted to make a Valentine's Day gift for @candyheartedchy and @sweetpayaso again 🩷🩵

Another ship art with these two with Angel as a small bonus :3

Character Inspiration Template by Hellion92

Laverne Hooks (Police Academy): Laverne is the primary visual inspiration for Lucy as she's a black woman who works as a law officer in a piece of media from the mid 80s. I would also add that Laverne's character resembles the one that Owen intended for Lucy to have on Mortimer's Handeemen - a soft-spoken, dedicated woman who can sometimes get aggressive and is able to get business taken care of when needed, but, as I've mentioned in my description of Lucy, she turned out a bit different once she was brought to life, just like her fellow puppets did.

Sheriff Woody (Toy Story 1): Like Woody, Lucy is a sheriff doll character based on an old children's TV series, whose personality is somewhat different from the source material and who, while loyal and smart, is very possessive and territorial of "her humans". However, Lucy is far from pursuing a leadership role and not at all as responsible and attentive as Woody.

Marceline (Adventure Time): Similar to Marceline, Lucy has a laid-back and a bit immature personality and can be mischievous and sarcastic but also somewhat sinister and passive-aggressive. Marceline's emotional attachment to her teddy bear, Hambo, and a strong reaction to him being taken away is a good point of reference for how Lucy feels about her hosts after they end up being used as sources of life energy for the puppets, resulting in them permanently losing their consciousness, and how much she dislikes someone trying to interact with them without her permission.

Maxine "Max" Gibson (Batman Beyond): A lot like Max, Lucy is a street-smart tomboyish black girl with a sharp mind but a rather lax, reckless and straightforward attitude, despite underlying issues related to emotional attachments, who is very helpful to her friends but, despite her ability to follow the rules, can also be a bit stubborn and find workarounds to be able to do what she wants while still acting within the instructions she has been given.

The Famethyst (Steven Universe): A big inspiration for Lucy as this team of gems (in particular the Amethysts of the group) are shown be humorous and easy-going, therefore, somewhat unprofessional, guards who are stationed at the place where the superiors of their kind keep abducted humans and who have developed a sort of Lima Syndrome towards their human captives, shown by how they don't just prevent humans from escaping and making a mess but comfort them by giving them very sincere-sounding consolations and asking them to talk about their problems.

While her and them both listen to their superiors they find overbearing and perform their duties, Lucy gets along better with her leader - Mortimer, despite his physically and mentally abusive tendencies towards the other puppets, than the Famethyst do with theirs, Holly Blue Agate, and she wouldn't allow prisoners to escape the way the gems let Steven and Greg leave, but that can be attributed to the fact that Holly is more hursh and always serious and demanding towards the subordinate gems while Mortimer, despite occasional toxicity, is able to present himself in a more gentlemanly, caring and benevolent light to his team and let some of their behaviours slide as long as it can benefit his ability to get them to do what he wants.

Breakdown (Transformers: Prime): Just like Breakdown, Lucy is the muscle in a team of antagonists who try to overtake humans, who expresses her loyalty to the group through her willingness to follow orders without much questioning, shows capacity for friendship and camaraderie that is rare among her kind and, despite her strength and nonchalant attitude, can display genuine care towards her friends, even within the harsh hierarchy. Both characters' intelligence is often underestimated, eventhough they can be rather quick-witted and adaptable. Additionally, both have a notable trait of being more humane to the group that's perceived as mostly just resources by their colleagues and superiors.

Mary (School for Vampires): My and @ben-the-hyena's creation of Mary started with Ben's idea of Count Frakula having had a wife named Mary based on him referencing having known a woman named Mary after he was offered to drink some Bloody Mary in his episode.

Mary I of England "Bloody Mary": Considering the already meantioned association with the term "Bloody Mary", I think it's understandable why I designed Mary after this historical figure, which also fits the School for Vampires show as we already have examples of characters being references to historical figures with sinister contexts attached to them, such as Bathory.

Beatrice Horseman (BoJack Horseman): Ben suggested her as a character similar to Mary in terms of her family situation, which I agree with: both Beatrice and Mary are women who got trapped in unhappy marriages with bad husbands, becoming passive-aggressive, neglectful, cynical, bitter, jaded people who drink to cope with their misery, which led to them being horrible mothers to theirs sons who, because of that, end up being very messed up, egotistical and manipulative men. Though, personally, I imagine that Mary has a bit more self-awareness and doesn't think of herself as a “great mom" like Beatrice. I think while both have resentment towards their sons as the boys felt like another chain holding them down in this prison of a marriage, I don't see Mary having the entitlement of trying to gaslight her son into respecting her and believing he's lucky to have her as his mother.

Miriam Pataki (Hey Arnold!): I think Miriam is a good reference for Mary's general state: an aloof wife and neglectful parent who just mopes and sleeps around the house all day, mostly indifferent to everything around her because of her depression and alcoholism.

Squidward Tentacles (SpongeBob Squarepants): Both me and Ben agreed Mary has a personality a lot similar to Squidward: an intelligent but a very grumpy, sassy, introverted, sarcastic, snobby, miserable, apathetic, and pessimistic person who views everything in a negative light, hates their life routine and spends more time sleeping or engaging in small personal distractions, like consuming something to their taste, the only difference being that Squidward, despite all that, still has ambitions that he actively persuits, even if he's not always good at it or people don't see appeal in his performance, while Mary is head-deep in depression and doesn't really have drive for anything.
