Long time no see! I'm still working on Sugarplum Cafe, but it's very hard to create a thing + post about the thing you are creating at the same time.

From time to time I need a break from game development so I'll be sharing some art I've made during those breaks! Starting with Lady Milk Chocolate, Lady Vanilla, and a pair of sugar spoons. 

I was testing out some new techniques to see if I'd want to redraw the game in this faux-traditional style, and as much as I love the look, it took a long time to draw like this. I've gotten faster since then though, so there's a non-zero chance...!

Zatanna, designed by @pixiegiftfashions and illustrated by me 🎩🪄

I had the incredible opportunity to illustrate Gina's designs for this year's Her Universe Fashion Show! We submitted three designs but only one outfit can be selected per designer, y'all are NOT ready for the design that was chosen but I got permission to share the others!

This year's sponsor and theme was DC Comics. For Zatanna, the concept was "magician and her assistant". We came up with two color schemes - the magenta is based on Justice League Action and the violet is based on Teen Titans Go; we submitted the violet for sponsor licensing reasons but I'm still partial to the magenta!

If I can get personal for a bit...longtime followers know my art used to be much more fashion-focused. I really wanted to be a fashion illustrator, especially in the geek/pop culture-inspired space - there are more gigs in that niche than you'd think! But try as I might I got rejection after rejection, so eventually I gave up and pivoted to game development. What are the odds that this would happen years after I gave up on that dream? 

This is the first time Gina's gotten a design selected after 12 years of applying, and I'm so happy to be a part of that! Not only did I love bringing her sketches to life (well, she'll actually bring a design to life in July!), but she let me get involved in the design process and offer feedback to help polish and shape these designs. I'm particularly proud of the ribbon sash, that was my suggestion!

This gig was really a dream come true, and I'm so so grateful to Gina for giving me that chance 🥹 

Batman Beyond, designed by @pixiegiftfashions and illustrated by me 🖤

Gina's second design for this year's @heruniverse fashion show was inspired by Batman Beyond, her favorite Batman animated series! Featuring a organza jacket with light-up buildings made of LED wiring, which reveals a sleek black and mesh ensemble with red removable batarangs 🦇

It's my birthday and I made it into the Neopets Art Gallery! One of my bucket list items finally came true 🥹🙌⭐

(yes my birthday is on 6/7 I did not choose this life)

The faeries have always been my favorite part of Neopets, so I knew I had to draw something for Fyora Day! I am Team Faerieland ride or die 🩷💜💚

Vacation~ Part 7

Paint the town with pride!

Happy Pride Month to everyone!
