I found this Prototype paper doll type thing that I made last year. At some point it disappeared into some deep dark crevice in my room and it randomly appeared on my desk the other day.
Super nice of the ghosts in my house to return this for me ❤️
I made some other cookie run kingdom paper dolls during this time, I might post them to if I feel like it

GARDENCLAN'S 666 DRAW THIS IN YOUR STYLE - RESULTS !!!
YAY ! It's finally here !!! First let me say - I am SO sorry this took as long as it did. It was not my intention to have this stall out until February, but my laptop breaking really slowed me down. Thank you all for being so patient.
Below are the 25 submissions we received for the event. I am in AWE of how many of you wanted to participate, and I'm so grateful to each and every person who took the time to join in. I have typed out a bit about every piece, and would like to ask everyone reading this to give each artist featured SO MUCH LOVE <3
Here is the original piece! You can find out a bit more about it here, in the original post. Let's get into it, shall we?
Our first entry comes from @spotsonwings !! I am so in love with the textures used here. I love the blending on the sand, and how you can really see every individual streak like a brush stroke in the sky. The black lineart, especially the wobbly panel, looks so nice, and I love the shadow making the panel pop from the fire in the background. And Imp looks SO CUTE - I'm a huge fan of her big fluffy tail !!
The next entry is from @monkmain2 !! Imptail's sad expression, especially with the big ol' eyes, is so dear to me. I love his polite little sit, their droopy ears, and the tiny, perfectly curved devil horns. The star representing Heaven uses an edited picture of a real cat's eye, which is SUCH a cool touch, and I love how much the jagged pupil compliments the black border.
Next is @homo-fart-face 's entry!! Imptail has WINGS !!! I asked people to play with her design and this totally delivers. The eyelashes are such a fun touch too. I really enjoy the way the background is so out of focus, really pulling your attention to Imp and the star, like they're the only things in the world that matter in this moment, and its the only thing she can focus on.
@galixye is up next! The textures provide a lot of visual interest, no matter where your eye falls. The perspective here goes so crazy, and i love how the sky grows darker and darker as you look upward. Imp's expression is so compelling, so concerned, and they really look like they're afraid of being watched by it. The two big stars in its halo too... I love the attention to detail and symbolism there. And Impy's big fat mane means the WORLD TO ME and the inclusion of the marbling on their paw is adorable.
Our next entry is from @nimbusclan . I am blown away by the way the stained glass here was done. What a smart idea! I love how all of the shapes fit together - there is SO MUCH to look at and take in. I am quite obsessed with the pointy cheek fur and big horns. The colors used are such eye candy to me too! The choice to have Imptail faceless has me GIDDY. It really contributes to the uncertainty he feels, as well as their struggles with their own personhood as a cat and not a star any longer.
This entry comes from @dreamclan-clan-gen !! The choice to have Heaven as a shooting star is SO fun and interesting to me. It makes the moment feel sudden, and fleeting, almost like an intrusive thought or a vision. I love the glowing effects going on. Imp's fluff looks so soft and pleasing, and I cannot stress how obsessed I am with their huge feet and big claws being out. It really adds to their stress in the moment!
Next up is @hope-clan-chronicles !! I really enjoy the depth of the background here - the hills and mountains in the distance give it a sense of scale and depth that makes Imptail feel small and alone, even as the focus of the piece. I love the way the star practically spotlights him, and the glittering swirls of stars make the sky feel very big and deep. I also think their long, curling tail is so cool, and really enjoy its twirling shadow below.
Here we have an entry from @rootclan-files ! I love the soft colors on this one, and the way each streak of sky is a slightly different color from the last. The way it transitions from warm near Imp to cooler near the edges is very beautiful, especially coupled with the radiating halo. The way that only Heaven's star is the stark, pure white was also a really great choice. Imp looks so cute and soft here, and I really enjoy that you brought her stripes up onto her orange patch from her tail.
This entry was done by @dog-clan !! There is so much fun texture and color happening in the sky. The perspective and rendering on the ground is also really pleasing to the eye, and I love the lineart. I really like the glowing highlight on Imptail. And her proportions are everything to me!!! You really capture how low to the ground he is! Their long ears and thin tail are so cute, and I'm a big fan of their curved, spiky horns!!
This entry was done by @veryinterstinguser ! I absolutely adore the shapes used for Imptail here. She looks so fat and round, and his big paws are PRECIOUS. I am such a huge fan of how her eyes are drawn too, and the highlights on them. The way the ground is rendered is also gorgeous. I really enjoy the loose, swirly atmosphere in the sky and how it contrasts with the sharp white lines of the main star. The pupil detail is really cool.
Next entry comes from @libraoffice ! I am blown away by the amount of depth and detail that was captured here. I love all of the colors so much. The shapes and swirls in the clouds make the scene feel so ethereal. There's so much texture everywhere, down to the shadows in the sand. And Imptail looks SO SO SMALL and lonely, surrounded by a big, beautiful world she doesn't feel like a part of. It's so atmospheric.
This entry belongs to @coyotelynnart !! I am so amazed by the rendering of the fur here, and I LOVE love love the way you drew her mane and tummy. The furry horns also? SO CUTE !! There's a lot of emotion captured in both his face and body language here, and I feel like it's very easy to connect with how they feel. I love how the sky peeks out behind the clouds, and how soft the lighting feels while still staying so bright and sparkly.
Up next is @theocracidal !! This piece feels so COOL to me. I love the stained glass effect, and how each line is so deliberate in giving the piece depth. I love how it contributes to the rocky terrain, and really helps to set apart the sky and the earth. There's only one star in this sky, and coupled with her expression, there's no doubt what Imp is focusing on and feeling here. The text reads “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil” - such a unique and compelling addition, especially considering where Imptail's character will go ;p
This one is by @asters--28 ! YAY FOR IMPTAIL TEARS AND I MEAN THAT!!! I LOVE that you've put the focus entirely on Imptail, only showing Heaven reflected in his eyes. I think that is such a strong artistic choice, and really makes the piece about Imp themself. The expression is so devastating, so frustrating, so desperate!! The little details in Imp's design are so cute too - I really love the alternating eyebrows and how spotty her orange is.
Next entry is from @reddroomba-art, and was done with oil pastels! The horizon in this piece feels like it's on fire, like the last light of day is still holding on the glowing even as the stars rise. I love the flecks of white as the stars. Imp looks SO CUTE here. Her pose is really well done, and I am such a big fan of her long, long tail. I like that her orange sort of blends into the red of the background, while the black offers a very harsh contrast more akin to the deeper sky. SO pretty!
This entry comes from @ajolteonnamedsparky !! Imptail looks precious here. I love the shapes used for her, especially the long horns and pointed tail. Her big paws are so cute! I'm a big fan of the little stars in her eyes, and how they're a different shape from the ones in the sky. The deep black chosen for her fur is also really lovely, and gives the piece a lot of really cool contrast. The sky looks so alive here, and I really like the mix of the black lines and the more subtle shifting colors behind them.
This grumpy little Imp was done by @capgrascinnamon !! There is so much cool, detailed stuff happening here. I am obsessed with the fire effect in the background and how carefully rendered it is. The more human eye in the star feels so haunting and surreal, especially as it breaks out of the panel. The textures and lighting are so cool... The way the sky functions as a star map is also SUCH A COOL IDEA !! And Impy looks so itty bitty teeny tiny cute and small!!
Next entry is from @squilf-divorce-lawyer !! This Imptail looks so pensive, lost in her own thoughts. I love the way the panel is separated from the flames in the background, just by two walls. The different colors of the stars, coupled with the way every single one of them glows so bright, is really pretty. It contrasts so well with the simple way the sand is rendered, really pulling your focus up to the Heavens!
This one comes from @fenceclan ! I love that you went so cool and focused on the purples and blues. It really looks like Imptail went out to wander in the middle of the night, and her little gasp makes him seem captivated by the stars above. The posing here is such a fun take, and I like the little liberties you took with Imp's design. The spikey horns and black tail tip are really fun!
Next entry is from @jaspers-a-gem ! There's a lot of really fun contrast here. The cool, empty sky and Heaven's star placed right behind Imptail help to put front and center Imp's struggles with his mission and the expectations on his shoulders. This Imp feels like the burden of carrying Heaven's will might just crush her. Their sad expression breaks my heart - I just love it!
This entry was done by @cursedjoywni ! Imptail here feels like she's trying her best to climb back to Heaven, while Heaven's gaze stretches out across the sky above - so close but still unobtainable from where she stands. It feels like a conversation between them and Heaven should be taking place, as they interact even so far apart. The inclusion of the wings makes Heaven's star look HUGE, and so otherworldly. I love the tweaks on her design, especially the alternating colors on the eyes and his new, extra stripes. The soft yellow sand and pale pink sky really help the red lineart pop too!
@gladepaw did this next entry, which is just SO pretty. I am on my hands and knees crying over how round and low to the ground Imptail is here - the ideal body type for them. The contrast between his round shape and spiky fur is so well done. The detail on the frame is insane, and makes everything feel so intricate. The black shading gives the scene such a sense of atmosphere and isolation, surrounding her and trapping her beneath Heaven's eye while it stares back - silent and judgmental. I so enjoy how conflicted his expression is, like she knows its gaze should be comforting... but it's just not.
This entry was drawn by @as-the-raven-cries-wolf !! The pen work here is SO IMPRESSIVE. The hatching and lines give her so much depth, and the anatomy is killer too. It's a really wonderful translation of Imptail's shapes! I love the limited colors and the use of the white/silver pen to do the stars is so cool to me. I really like the detail of his eye shines being stars as well, like the sky is reflected within them. Coupled with their expression, it really captures how conflicted they feel! It's gorgeous.
Next is from @littleladybugart !! I adore this precious, tiny Imptail - especially the big paws and thick, curly tail. The colored lineart is really beautiful, as is the shading!! I love the different textures and sources of light in the sky. The big stars with the wispy clouds and soft glows all play off of one another very nicely. And the way the ground is done looks very natural and pleasing to the eye. Another really nice touch is the dots within the flames of the background!!
Our last entry comes from @rainy-wc !! I love how much is going on here. There's so many different patterns and colors and they all work together so nicely. I enjoy how jagged everything feels. The white outline on Imp really makes them pop out, and I love the way the rays of the star cut through everything. I love the way the halo rays in the back look like a setting sun, and how the green dances around behind everything. The pattern behind the panel pulls it all together beautifully too. Imp's pensive little expression really gets to me ;')
AAAAND that wraps up all 25 of the submissions received !! I hope I was able to really spotlight what makes each of them special and unique. It blows my mind to see my beloved Imp drawn so lovingly across so many styles and mediums. Everyone featured here is SO skilled and creative. I feel like I barely scratched the surface, but I hope you all know how important each piece here is to me.
You can find each individual post reblogged and tagged with #gardenclan666 on this account. If you feel inclined, please go give these artists some love. Everyone was so kind to join in and play along, and I hope you all had fun.
Thank you again for your patience as I worked through my laptop troubles to bring this to you. I hope the wait was worth it! I had a lot of fun revisiting and reexamining every entry though. If you followed me after this closed, or just missed it when it was happening, fear not! I look forward to being able to do this again! I maayyy have already passed several of the milestones I'd planned to celebrate, so we might have to play pretend when the 777 contest rolls around - but I won't tell if you won't, okay? ;P
Sorry ya'll I was surprisingly busy this past week so I really didn't have time to finish this week's prompt so I'm just posting the wip that I might finish later just to post something
