Actual real experiences from Anaheim Fan Expo 2026 that I had to draw out featuring my wonderful crew I attended it with

[sandboxmagician]

Fuck it we florp

[yumezuke]

felt like drawing a bunch of the cool VA interactions i had at FanExpo Anaheim, mostly the IZ cast but a couple others too!! i had so much fun this weekend fr, i'm still lowkey wiped from all the traveling but i would not have traded it for the world :']

[sandboxmagician]

So i guess tumblr is where I go to tell everyone I did shrooms at the Primus show

[sandboxmagician]

Tonight, Primus becomes my most seen in concert band! Genuinely will be at every concert these guys have in my state ive been obsessed with them since I was like 15

i should really start explaining my art so im gonna throw all the lore for these three + some extra notes under a readmore, but in short, Sabitsuki is very musically-adept which fascinates Zim, who has no concept of music lol

ok hi if youre here that means you want rambles so here we go.

before being affected by the Rust disease, Sabitsuki was a musical prodigy who used her abilities to get full ride scholarships to attend very prestigious schools, as her family was very poor. she has a genuine love and talent for music, which stayed with her when she began to reside in Fluorette's house (this is a whole other giant tangent lol). Sabi can frequently be found playing piano, or practicing her singing for her performances (another big tangent). her newfound siblings all seem to enjoy her piano playing, including Zim, shockingly

Zim is another recent addition to Fluorette's home, and one that still seems to stick out among the many colorful characters he now resides with. being hard of hearing, Zim isnt necessarily an *enjoyer* of Sabi's piano, but i imagine he enjoys it for the same reason cats often sleep on top of pianos: the vibration of the notes soothes them, so Sabi intentionally closes the top of the piano so he can enjoy it to the fullest. adding to this, i imagine it also has the same effect on him that music therapy does for people who have suffered/are recovering from brain injuries or surgery, and it helps his usually very noisy brain calm down, even if just for a moment. as for the singing.... i don't think he can sing, but by gosh is he gonna try and fail as many times as he has patience for lol (spoiler: its not many)

Dib isn't a resident of Fluorette's, as he has his own home and family to return to, but he is a part of the big friend group that Sabi is part of, which is how they know each other. Dib gets along with Sabi just fine, though i imagine due to lore reasons i've yet to yell abt, Dib would be much closer with Urotsuki and the others in that group: regardless, they're chill with each other, and Dib uses the shared connections Uro and Sabi have to Zim to spy on him further (he doesnt believe they can handle Zim on their own. he is incredibly wrong in this thought process.)

extra non-lore note: the musical notation in the second image is actually real sheet music! if youre curious, heres the song in question i used :>

anyways if you made it this far THANK YOU FOR READING and if you have any questions i would LOVE to answer them lol

[saintsacademyhq]

hello! some concept sketches to get us started, but in as short as I can...

Saints Academy is a story I dreamt up about a year ago now where seven teens were raised to fully believe they are the following saints: Joan of Arc, Francis of Assisi, Catherine of Siena, Therese of Lisieux, Augustine of Hippo, Ignatius of Loyola, and Lucia of Fatima (she's practically a saint...there's a method to this madness I'll probably elaborate on at some point)

They are in a secluded in a home deep in the Appalachian wood, in an academic program run by the angel Uriel to be witnesses to Christ in the end times

Join me in the biggest game of "just trust me" creative process I've ever attempted :)

[matildamaxmickey]

Currently at the Fan Expo in Anaheim, dressed as Dib. I might like Invader Zim a little bit. First image is my best art piece I did for it and the rest were sanity doodles drawn at work. I am so normal about Invader Zim guys trust
