Finally!!

After 2.5 years of waiting and medical stuff, I was finally able to start Testosterone two days ago!! (I posted this on Twitter and completely forgot about Tumblr lol) My life completely turned around when I got an unexpected call from my doctor where she told me that I can finally start T now. Before that, I was told to not expect anything until october because of summer break, and due to long waiting times I thought I would have to hold on until next year...well, until the Trans Fairies decided to just say whoop whoop f3ck summer break time for Testo NOW

So why not celebrate the probably best event in my life with a quick drawing of me and the characters that helped me through these last long months of waiting the most!

To every Trans Person out there waiting for life-saving medical care, please keep going! No matter how rough the waiting might be, it certainly was rough for me, it is worth it! Stay strong and safe everyone, you're the coolest motherf3ckers to ever exist!!

Thank you so much to everyone who supported me so far, especially the folks who stuck around from the beginning of this account and the ones who keep interacting with my stuff and saying the kindest things about it! Love you all, and have a great day!

Something to chew, better for you

I FINISHED THE TAROT ARTWORK SERIES YIPPIE

Here we finally have Barnaby, our trusted Hierophant! Actually, I struggled quite a bit with finding a fitting card for this guy. Until I read that an alternative name for the Hierophant is also "The teacher". My thoughts instantly went to how Barn seems to stick to Wally's side for most of the time and teach him to make social connections! As well as taking a role of a caretaker and teacher for Wally, he also seems to know a little more than your average neighbor since he is often found talking to home for example. Just like the Hierophant who seems to posess an aura of some sort of spiritual power. When the card is reversed, it also points at personal belief, and Barnaby is an individual with a tentendy to strong willpower.

Something that is coming to my mind just as I am writing this: I kept thinking about one of Clown's Artworks, the one where Barnaby is found headless with Wally standing in front of him, seemingly controlling him. When the Hanging Man, Wally's card, and the Hierophant appear together, it indicates some kind of transformation. While the Hierophant turns to tradition, the Hanging Man represents letting go of those beliefs, almost "taking over" the Hierophant...you see where I'm going there, right??

So yeah, making those was a blast! Time for me to actually get them printed out now lol, who wants a tarot reading?

Also I apologize for being less active, I am a busy man with a lot happening in my life, also I will probably expand my choices of what I draw a bit more again, so there might not only be Welcome Home related posts in the future, I hope you guys are still interested to see them though!!

Again, we all know and love my disclaimer: I am not experienced with the usage of tarot cards, so please don't expect me to know more than their basic meaning. Also, if you think that I should've chosen a different card for Barnaby, don't come at me, I just picked what I thought fit best!

They are so cute 😭 I draw and cry. (By the way, it's a pleasure to draw them. Simple, but nice)

You live and you lose, you sympathetic star (You know where I are)

With Sally Starlet here, it looks like have only one of our beloved neighbors left now! What makes Sally our magician? This card represents willpower, desire and concentration, and I highly doubt that there is a neighbor with more willpower than Sally herself! As passionate as she is, pulling everyone in with her eager personality, she makes the perfect magician! As well as those wondeful aspects of her character I can also see her being a bit cunning, as well as her bossy temperament which you observe in the way she acts towards Eddie (leave my man alone) Also, the magician's usual pose has him pointing one hand up and one hand towards the earth as if to say "As Above, So Below". I wonder if that has something to do with Sally's knowledge about the being that roams the neightborhood at night?

As usual: I am not experienced with the usage of tarot cards, so please don't expect me to know more than their basic meaning. Also, if you think that I should've chosen a different card for Sally, don't come at me, I just picked what I thought fit best!

[flonkertainment]

Broken over and over again, what else can I do?

Would you look at that! Its The Sun! The Sun: Full of positivity, warmth and optimism. Just like our reliable mailman Eddie Dear! Maybe sometimes a little too optimistic, but that sounds a lot better than just being grumpy, doesn't it? Always practically radiating with optimism, when Eddie is around, you know that everything is going to be okay. But...why is the Title crossed out? Is that the moment our beloved Eddie is stripped of his optimism with the shadows of Home's Eye directly between his eyes, just like a crosshair on a target? And are those the letters that the Welcome Home Restauration Team were recieving? The black goo is all over again... Oh, and please ignore that out-of-place-looking butterfly. What's a nice neighborhood without a pesky bug or two?

We all know it by now: I am not experienced with the usage of tarot cards, so please don't expect me to know more than their basic meaning. Also, if you think that I should've chosen a different card for Eddie, don't come at me, I just picked what I thought fit best!

I contend that your drinking eye has never opened

Wohoo! The pickerwheel strikes again and this time it's Poppy's turn! So what made me choose the card of the Empress for our beloved feathered neighbor? Well, The Empress embodies sensuality and nurturing as well as creativity, but she can also hint at insecurity and disharmony. Poppy seems like one of the most caring neighbors, always happy to provide with her baked goods as well as her creative abilities such as crocheting. As much as she has this nurturing soul, her personality is also flawed by traits such as insecurity and especially her inability to not worry about the littlest things, even though she mostly does that out of fear for her mutuals, such as offering Frank a third pair of oven mitts. Her scepter is her baking spoon. I had a lot of fun with this one especially since I don't usually draw Poppy, not because I don't like her, but because I have so many ideas that include other neighbors. But it was very refreshing to not draw a kind of human looking face and body, especiallyy the wings were very interesting, I found it quite fascinating to imply that she has some sort of hand? I just needed her to be able to hold the spoon properly xD Also, I'm sorry for posting less often, Flonkie's got lots in his life going on right now!

Aaaaanyways, my usual disclaimer: I am not experienced with the usage of tarot cards, so please don't expect me to know more than their basic meaning. Also, if you think that I should've chosen a different card for Poppy, don't come at me, I just picked what I thought fit best!

You said something's wrong, and I could say the same to you

My dear trusted pickerwheel of Fortune has chosen my favorite character: Frank it is! So, why the Hermit? The Hermit is a seeker of the knowledge that comes from "within". Introspection, inner guidance, maybe sometimes isolation? Frank's character just fits perfectly! Just like the Hermit knowing more than your average being, it seems that Frank might just know a little more than he is supposed to. There is definitely a reason why he doesn't have those white eyes without pupils like the others. Instead, he is looking straight at us, as if he wanted to call out for us. This Hermit has reached a heightened state of self-awareness. The black goo is already everywhere on this card. The background looks too much like the photographies from the playfellow exhibition, and what are those human hands doing in the corners? Someone has to do something before the light in Frank's Lantern goes out and the all-seeing bug catches up to him...

Again, my usual disclaimer: I am not experienced with the usage of tarot cards, so please don't expect me to know more than their basic meaning. Also, if you think that I should've chosen a different card for Frank, don't come at me, I just picked what I thought fit best!

Then you push all my curtains to the side!

Alright, the Pickerwheel (of Fortune) has decided: President Joyful it is! First things first: What made me choose the fool for Julie? The Fool is someone who is daring and carefree, and (quite literally for Julie) joyfully and free-spirited walking into the world. And Julie is the most free-spirited, playful neighbor there is! Julie can also be seen as sometimes a bit reckless and risk-taking, which embodies the upside-down fool. Also do you notice that she is standing on Howdy's Roof? Just as when she and Frank talked about one of her games where she got stuck there! The plants and the yellow ground she seems to be standing one are the same as on Howdy's Store :)

Again, my usual disclaimer: I am not experienced with the usage of tarot cards, so please don't expect me to know more than their basic meaning. Also, if you think that I should've chosen a different card for Julie, don't come at me, I just picked what I thought fit best!

Yo! If you draw a complete WH tarot card deck, you should sell them, or sell a dpf of all the cards. A welcome home themed deck sounds awesome 👌🏾 I'd buy fr

Hi, thank you so much! It makes me happy to hear that you like my tarot artworks so far! But as far as I know, Clown stated in a Tumblr Post that he does not feel comfortable with individuals making and selling merchandise of Welcome Home! You can find his post here:

Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It's where your interests connect you with your

I know his statement is already over a year old, but as far as I know, he has not updated this yet, so I would like to respect his wishes!

But he also said that you can still make Welcome Home Merch for yourself and/or friends and commission artists for One-Off Pieces! So if you would like to actually have my artworks as actual Cards, feel free to download my artworks and get them printed yourself! (The only thing I would ask you to do, if you actually want to get them printed, is to make a post with them where you credit me as the artist, but that's about it, I want people to have fun with my art and it's always great to hear that people want to have physical prints of them!)

As long as nothing is sold en masse and no one gains profit off of Welcome Home, it should be fine :) (Correct me please if anyone thinks I am wrong with anything I said!)

Sorry for the long text, but I just wanted to make sure I don't cross any boundaries!

I WAS COUNTING DOWN THE SECONDS BEFORE I IMMEDIATELY BOUGHT ONE

[flonkertainment]

Life made you bitter, I can make you tender

The Wheel has decided: Everyone's favorite caterpillar it is! I really should draw Howdy more, his four arms are so much fun :D When I read through the meaning of the Emperor Card, I had to think of Howdy the most out of all neighbors: Establishment, structure, a bit of excessive control (also beacuse of his four arms always multitasking). I also tried to transform the ankh that the emperor usually carries in his right hand into Howdy's Toy Telephone while making him hold an apple instead of the usual orb. Again, disclaimer: I don't have experience with the usage of tarot cards, I don't claim to have much knowledge about them!

Beautiful Dreamer, wake unto me

(TW: Eye Contact)

Sooo, no pickerwheel this time, but instead I had the idea to draw the Welcome Home Cast as Major Arcana Tarot Cards! When I read the meaning of the Hanged Man, I immediately had to think of Wally. That feeling of being stuck, confined, trapped. Almost as if you're not in control of yourself and your surroundings. Almost as if there were...puppet strings? I also had a little fun with the puppet tool (convenient name, i know xD) in After Effects, it does certainly NOT look great, but I'm still happy with how it turned out! I hope you guys enjoy it as well!

Small disclaimer: I have almost zero experience with Tarot Card Reading, so please forgive me if I misinterpreted anything wrong, I also just thought that the phrase "The Hanged Man" fits Wally very well ;)

Terrific Tomatoes! Look, but don't touch!

The pickerwheel strikes again! I absolutely loved Julie's Idea to put up that sign and it was nice to draw her again! I also support Julie wearing dungarees and Frank even wearing a matching vest and bowtie :3 We love the besties just doing things together and being proud of it (Also I absolutely lost my mind, I had such difficulties with drawing Julies Face xD)
