I saw your sona this morning and I really like the design and the color pallete! Could you share some of your inspirations when creating them? (No pressure of course. I’d love any sort of yapping on them if you have the energy.)
Have a fantabulous day, and I LOVE your artwork so much! Your bettyjuices have a special place in my heart, though I really enjoy the artistic fingerprint of anything you touch. Hope you’re having a warm winter, and eat something yummy today :)
first off, oh my god I'm so sorry this took me so long to answer!!!! you just happen to send it right when I kind of stopped using Tumblr.( I've just been working mostly on personal art and not fandom stuff, which I get no interaction on here so I haven't been posting, I'll include some In this just for fun though) 😭 but THANK YOU!!!? truly. I adore your art style so much, I was so shocked to see this in my inbox, it means so much to me to know other people enjoy any of the content I create.
i would LOVE to talk about my sona, I've actually had her since I was in 5th grade!! she wasn't originally based on anything, I was just always drawing in the margins of my schoolwork instead of paying attention and made her up. I've changed her design a million times since then too, currently I'd say a lot of the inspo in her design is just influence of some of my favorite artists, Julia pott and Sam Hensley! her color palette is actually a bit different from how she looks here, I was just trying to make the colors look fun on that piece. that was based the music video to the song silver by waterparks, its in black grey and army green since the video is just them wearing camo having a water gun fight with a bunch of kids. :)!!
she has. incredibly incredibly complex lore which feels almost silly to talk about here since that drawing of her is so cartoony, but at one point I got ridiculously into my own oc world so now somewhere I have like 60 pages of written down info and diagrams LOL. ( never give me permission to yap I've only ever even spoken about this to like 1 other person I could go on for 6 straight hours...even this Is incredibly condensed I have multiple pages just about the species blood types and the way their solar system works) she lives in a ringworld, in a kind of dystopian society with very advanced technology. her parents work for the government, they have her enrolled in a bunch of specialized classes for her to go into a high position working in a technology based department. so she has very little free time, but she does have one hobby, old-world biotech! computer systems with hardware based on early earth technology, and hyper advanced hardware that runs off her physical input! the design of her I made in middle school, when she got her name, she had a VHS tv imbedded into her stomach. thats what her first name came from, teli. her last name is cosmonaut, (like an astronaut) a family name, they have always been directly involved in the government and were part of the group to build the colony they live in. venturing across space to expand the reach of their species! so, blah blah blah, far future in her story she ends up being captain of an explorer ship sailing the stars once more after acidentally becoming the catalyst of a revolution and overthrowing the tyrannical government..
so she kind of became an oc in a way. but I still consider her my sona and use her to represent myself!
here is some very old and poor quality concept art I have of her biotech.. and a page of some personal stuff I did for a project!
