UNDERTALE x Rift of the NecroDancer portraits I drew & concepted!

I’m especially happy to draw anything related to my favorite Undertale character (Muffet) and to put NecroDancer in a bad wig. It’s like a dream from a fan artist’s perspective, I got to be silly and self indulgent!

Getting to collaborate with Toby also feels unreal, the me getting hyper fixated on Undertale 10 years ago could not even imagine this happening. I’m just happy I can contribute anything to this beloved game and story! 💚

Hi. Your art is cool and awesome. Ok that's all I wanted to say hope your having a nice day

thank you very much! hope your day is nice too

[pipertonic]

Is there a reason why ur sketches use grey as a base color? Just curious!

I like a medium or dark grey as a base bc it’s easier on my eyes! And it allows brighter colors in a design to pop out more. It’s more of a painterly approach

Part 2 of the hololive x Rift of the NecroDancer sprites!!!

This time I included some sketches to show some more of the process that goes on behind making these cutie patooties.

Credits to Madeleine Gray and Sunny Ren who helped line & color some of the Gura sprites, and @vvnhuang who lined & colored all of the IRyS sprites! Y’all saved my butt and helped us meet deadlines 😭🙏🏼

(Also at the time, Gura was still with hololive when we did the production for this collab! So pls, don’t ask me where she went cause all I did was draw anime girls man 🥀)

It’s the hololive x Rift of the NecroDancer sprites!!! Finally!!!

Drawing these was such a huge honor, every idol is so different from each other so they were fun to simultaneously draw, like style whiplash lol. I also watched a ton of their streams just so I could understand their personalities better, some of the most unhinged research I’ve ever had to do 🤣

Anyways I hope I drew someone’s potential fav hololive idol in a way that represents all their cutest attributes! 💚 I drew others but I hit the picture limit…so I’ll just make a second post 🤷

[pipertonic]

Hololive x Rift of the Necrodancer was a particularly crazy collab to work for. At least I got to draw stupid Cadence merch. Which would y’all buy? I would get the Cadence phone so I could throw her at walls

Wanted to share the illustration I did to promote the Hatsune Miku collab with Rift of the NecroDancer! 🎸💻🍉🎶 Oh to be summer again…doing jam sessions with music legends…

Anyways don’t worry about the floating wooden porch they’re on or the fact that the sun is slowly coming closer right behind them. They’ll live

I got to make sprites for the Rift of the Necrodancer x Friday Night Funkin collab!!! 🤚🏼🎤 I think this guy’s name is…FriendGuy or somethin idk

Anyways he is really fun to draw lol I loved thinking of these poses. I did try to sneak in some of his base game gestures as fun callbacks tho ✌🏼

Artwork I did for the Rift of the NecroDancer: Hatsune Miku Music Pack!

The cool thing about these poses I sketched and rendered is that they received very little changes in the approvals process. It’s really cool to see the Miku that was basically in my brain now in a real game!

Shoutout to everyone that has been following me since middle school, DREAMS AREN’T OUT OF REACH, WE DID IT Y’ALL 🥂🎆🕺

Ranma 1/2 might as well be Akane 1/2 to me

Peppino please….why are you wearing a second hat on top of your other hat

BUT he finally got an apron lol

[pipertonic]

Once again, I love drawing Peppino

ANOTHER Rift of the Necrodancer character I designed! Say hello to Zad, or BeastMaster!

It was fun to interpret his more limited pixel art sprite into a fully fledged illustration! We went for a big, buff, and extroverted personal trainer with an 80’s flair. I have a really fond memory of the notes I received on him, summarized by: “more skin, please” 🤣

I feel like a rarely draw men, so this is nice to have proof that I do occasionally draw them. Especially if they wear crop tops and knee socks 🧦✨

[wizzroboe]

EVERYBODY LOOK AT THEM RIGHT NOW

[pipertonic]

fun fact: i drew this

Here is the last Rift of the NecorDancer boss (bosses?) that I made a human design for: Deep Blues!

They’re art critics, but I chose to take them in a slightly different direction than a typical runway fashion/artsy-fartsy design. I thought it would be fun to make them so full of themselves that they think only a CERTAIN decade is the best, and have that pretty much limit their artistic tastes. So, I chose the 1970’s!

Queen & King went through the most iterations compared to other bosses. Initially I tried making them look more like their boss counterparts, but then direction changed to make them appear MUCH different in silhouette and design. Lots of different 70’s apparel was experimented with too, and it was so fun doing that research! Eventually we landed on a “1970’s meets old money” type of look.

Which designs do YOU like? Do you miss King’s mustache? Did he play that funky music, white boy? (please get that reference)
