I went to a glass museum recently and they had a program where they let kids design glass artwork and it brightened my day so much that I had to share some of my favorites:
Kids have such neat ideas and I love that a group of artists were willing to bring them to life.
made a textmode art of some Vylet Pony characters (specifically based on the album Carousel)
I randomly remembered that textmode art was a thing the other week and decided I needed to draw Creekflow with it.
I used the Commodore 64 character set + color palette but tbh next time I do something like this I'll probably just make my own color palette cause the palette I used really wasn't that good for drawing these characters.
This was sort of based on the story stuff that corresponds with Bass Cannon and originally I also used some lyrics from Bass Cannon but I decided to change it to lyrics from The Carrion Child because the original lyrics I chose didn't really fit with the drawing very much. Although The Carrion Child also has a lot of stuff in it that could be really interesting to draw so maybe I'll do something based on that sometime.
Anyways here's some WIP stuff from this since I spent maybe too long on it.
The first image is a little thing i drew over a screenshot to try and help figure out how to get the expressions and stuff to work better. When I did this I was almost done with the full thing though.
The second image is what would have originally been the final thing. But I didn't like how Lulamoon looked in it in like a lot of different ways so I eventually just decided to fully redraw her. Tbh I do think I like the original better in some ways but the newer one is a lot better overall.
The third image is an older version where I had the original lyrics I was going to use. The background also is much emptier.
Anyways posting this so that I don't spend like another week just tweaking it.
This year, Ego wanted a GIF of their most favorite thing in the world, and that thing was this half-second clip of these CG cats bobbing up and down from the 3D Adventures of Sailor Moon computer game.
Thanks for hanging around when I was streaming and guiding me though animating this thing! Oh, and also thanks for being one the sweetest, funniest, and all-around coolest people I know! Can't forget about that!
Also, here's the raw GIF just in case you want to see these cats bob up and down to your own custom music!
