All digital art and comics have been put on hold because the artist is finishing up his role as Lane in The Importance of Being Earnest!

Today is actually the last show, so to commemorate it, I'm posting some doodles I made in my script of a possible Chrisville Theater Society cast. We have...

Dirk as Lane

Leo Lion as Algernon Moncrieff

Jamie McBear as Jack/Earnest Worthing

A not-yet-introduced character I can't draw well yet as Lady Bracknell

Madame Croc as Gwendolyn Fairfax

The Butterfly Bear as Cecily Cardew

Wagon Wheels as Miss Prism

Moth as Doctor Chasuble

Softboy Pillowman as Merriman

The first picture is of the characters wearing more traditional costumes, while the second shows the characters wearing our cast's more modern costumes. There's a little overlap between a few roles.

Jamie has a pen pal!

After Chris started writing letters to his British uncle, he decided that at least one of his toys should get in on the fun. Fortunately, Chris’s uncle told him about Sigma: a plush panda bear in a kilt that Chris’s uncle bought at the Edinburgh Zoo gift shop. Now, the letters and packages that Chris and his uncle send each other contain smaller envelopes for Sigma and Jamie.

Fun facts: Sigma is based on a real panda bear plush I bought at the Edinburgh Zoo gift shop. Also “Sigma” may sound like an odd name for a panda, Scottish or otherwise, but that name is a reference to an old OC of mine who loves pandas.

This week’s timelapse is a drawing of Chrisville’s cuddliest (and only-est) Scottish resident, Jamie McBear!

Every time I draw Jamie, I tell myself “I should get a Clip Studio Paint brush that will take care of the tartan pattern for me,” and every time, I forget.

Like all kids, Chris keeps a rotating selection of his cuddliest stuffed toys on his bed to keep him company while he sleeps. Here is Chris’s current bedtime bud lineup, along with reasons why they’re so good to snuggle with at night.

Fun fact: In case you’ve forgotten him (which is understandable, as he’s only showed up once or twice), the toy on the far left is Grumpy Grey, the mascot of a beloved cartoon franchise in this world.

One of three beautiful works that came from an art exchange between @chiropteracupola​ (sketch), @gaymarriedinspace​ (lineart), and me (colors).

The theme was “Softboy Meets Something I Love” and chiropteracupola loves 18th-century swashbuckler-adventure stories! Dirk and Jamie McBear look so detailed and fancy now. <3 Chiropteracupola really evoked the feeling of a classic illustrated storybook, which gaymarriedinspace solidified with such clean, exact lineart. Thanks again to the talented artists who made this possible!

Chiropteracupla’s sketch and gaymarriedinspace’s lineart can be seen under the read-more:

Hey Softboy, are you into bears at all?

Don't worry, everyone. Softboy will always be loyal to his wonderful lion boyfriend. This just shows that he appreciates other kinds of plush toys as well.

Looks like Chrisville is a little short on spooky plans right now. However, everyone will keep thinking of ideas, even if they can’t get real live dead ghosts.
