Dogs: Afghan Hound

Woof.

Such lustre.

Buns (1/?)

Over the course of a few days, I’ve been adding buns. Not a full page yet, but ONE DAY.

I like the fat ones best.

Meow.

Meow meow. Meow.

Meow.

Friendly Neighbour Man Spoodermin

I wanted to see if I could draw Spider-Man from memory. But I knew something wasn’t quite right, so this is Bill Spoodermin instead. He’s closer than I thought he’d be, anyway.

Bill should be in Into the Spiderverse 2, obviously.

Bill Spoodermin is such a hero, he just swings around in a unitard using his real name. I wish I were as authentic and true to myself as Mr Spoodermin.

The Batman

My favourite Batman will always be the Adam West Batman, and I wish I could see him transplanted into every iteration that followed so he could win the day with his sharp wit and sassy puns.

A dancing Batman is a good Batman

I just wish I could do more justice to this iconic scene from the movie, but I’ll keep practicing (especially different body angles) until I can. In the meantime, these are still words to live by.

Some days.

Darkness in the Mushroom Kingdom

I wanted to see if I could draw Nintendo characters from memory (as it turns out, I can only draw Mario from memory) and then it got weird.

Unsure if Toad is upset because Mario is corrupting kid Link,
or if it’s because that’s at least tangentially cannibalism to him.

King Egg & the Food Crew

There’s this artist on YouTube named Vexx whose style I really love because it’s just all bright, colourful, interwoven doodles.

So here’s my take on it, with more eggs for some reason. Suddenly I love drawing little egg people, I guess. At least these ones are mostly behaving themselves.

I have all these stories in my head about all these characters — they all have very rich lives in my brain, because I physically can’t not give them backstories. Whoops.

In the Clearing

I love the idea of taking old, worn out paintings and adding something silly and new and fun to them with some new paint. So I decided to practice with this very pretty photo I found. I’m not sure it turned out quite as well as I’d hoped, but I still like the idea, so I’ll keep practicing.

Many goofy monsters lurk in the clearing…

Dungeons & Dorks

After many trials I finally updated Evy to give her a nose, and also drew my favourite roleplaying character, Tixxi the Barbarian. A super cool titan mauler gnome barbarian who wields two gnome hooked hammers — Badgerfoe and Other Badgerfoe. I miss playing her tremendously because she liked to make friends with everyone and test poisons by licking them and smash all the things real good. Hopefully one day I can play her again.

Evy, but with a nose. Cool.
Beautiful, beautiful Tixxi,
looking super smart and competent.

A Gnome and a Skeleton Walk Into a Bar…

I decided to take another (actually serious) stab at my characters for the Carrion Crown game of Pathfinder my husband is running for me, and I like them a lot better. :3

Here is Evy Fizzwhizzle, gnome paladin-summoner gestalt and her eidolon Tim, who just happens to look like a skeleton (that speaks with a bad cockney accent that occasionally veers much closer to New Zealand than it should).

Why yes, Tim’s eyebrows are drawn on. Evy likes to make sure he can express a wide range of emotions. (Plus, Ryan is cool and lets me have an intimidation bonus when Evy draws angry eyebrows on him before a fight.)

Playing Lawful Good is weird. But mostly Evy just kind of ends up being everyone’s weird, awkward mom, so I like it. 😀

Thanks for running Carrion Crown, Ryan!
