Day 13 | Amelita

Morning everyone! I finally organized Amelita's character profile today ✨

She's a 3-year-old from the Living Hair tribe. Her fluffy hair moves freely like tiny hands, and its color shifts in floating rainbow shades depending on the weather, temperature, and sunlight. Sometimes magical little paw pads — like cat toe beans — appear in her hair. 🐾

She’s one of my most precious OCs. Drawing her always helps me forget my worries and makes me feel lighter. I hope soft, hazy little Amelita can bring you some comfort too. 💕

Day 58 | Ame Eating Cake 🎂

Happy birthday, Amelita!

Today is her special day, and her parents prepared a big cake and lots of sweet treats 🎂🍪🍓

Wishing her lots of happiness, and that she grows up healthy and joyful!

Day 57 | Magic Fluffy Paw

After a lovely, graceful dance, the girl holds out a small fluffy ball to you.  

“Here!”  

As you look closer at the soft little ball in her hand, you realize it has turned into a tiny cat paw… gently wiggling. 🐾✨

Day 56 | Friendship Plan: The Dance of Living Hair

Being all alone in the nursery felt lonely, so Amelita decided to take action!

She began to shake her head from side to side, dancing in a dramatic, graceful way. Her Living Hair scattered through the air as she gathered it back, kneading and kneading it again…

Ta-da! A magical Living Hair kitty paw is born! 🐾✨

Day 54 | Drawing Together 🎨

Amelita lies on the library floor, using her Living Hair to hold several crayons as she carefully draws.

Soon, the other children join her — Kuru the dragon girl (Plurk: blackmoonn2) and Fanssfann the little magician (Plurk: Fanssfann).

They join in the fun, drawing portraits of each other. In the end, they complete a beautiful drawing of the three of them holding hands!

Happy birthday, Keling! 🎂✨  

This is a collaboration with Spring Bear (IG: a.spring.bear) — we created an owl ice cream for the three of us to enjoy together!

Day 51 | XD Personified ✨

I heard that using "XD" is considered old now… is that true? 🥲

Day 50 | Dreamscape Fragments

There was a time when Zentangle-style art was really popular, and I found it interesting, so I tried using that style to illustrate my dream journal.

Later, I completed the final version digitally during a color palette study event (色票研究所).

Day 49 | Amelita — WIP ✨

All the kids have gathered around!

Day 48 | Nom Nom Series — Couples 💕

After the Nom Nom series, I started pairing up my characters and drawing them with backgrounds!  

Now they’re happily sharing sandwiches together!

Day 47 | Nom Nom Series!

The Nom Nom hamster was too cute, so I made more in the same style!  

From a nom nom heart❤️ to a nom nom sandwich🥪—  

Different characters, same nom nom… all so cute 💕

Day 46 | Nom Nom Hamster! 🐹✨

I played a drawing game with a friend and drew my persona playfully "nomming" their hamster OC.

It was so cute that I had to redraw it properly in CSP!

Day 45 | Amelita's Self-Portrait (Process) ✨

Free time at daycare! Amelita decides to draw.

Come take a look at the drawing process!

Day 44 | Amelita's Self-Portrait ✨

Free time at the nursery! Amelita decides to draw. She grabs some drawing paper and a box of crayons, picks out the pink for her hair and eyes and the colors for her outfit, and carefully draws a self-portrait! Does it look like her? (She gave herself a 100/100 for the likeness! 🤣)
