Tsukasa and the Stolen Dress

Commission for @Rapid_Arthropod on twitter!

So last night I got the idea to do my own design of Doremy Sweet and I am so happy with how it turned out omg.

Artists note below:

My main sources of inspiration were dreamcore aesthetics, Rayman (never played the game but I like the design of the main character), the ENA series on Youtube (tbh IDK how much that influence did show in the design, it's more of the general vibes of that series) and by proxy a lot of Oliver Bucklands music which I listened to while drawing this. As I was doing the hands, I was also reminded of Welcome Home, mainly cuz they were soft round muppet hands and I kinda liked that. Much like what I did when doing my own design of Hisami, I made Doremys features very simplified, giving her a simple line for her nose and blacking out the eyes. I think it gives a really neat inhuman/alien like quality to a characters face. I wanted to lean into rounder and softer shapes with Doremys design. I would definitely say that this is a mix between her LoLK design and her AoCF design, as I really like the shapes present in her AoCF design so thats the one I took the most inspiration from (also the comically large hat), but I also like some of the details in her LoLK design. I noticed that a reoccurring motif in dreamcore aesthetics are eyes, eyes everywhere, heck even in the beginning stages of the design I knew I wanted to make the little pom poms on her dress eyes. It adds a little bit of irony to the design where the character associated with dreams and sleeping has a bunch of open eyes on her dress (lol). Also, I wanted her tail to sort of extend out and wrap around the bottom half of her hat cuz I thought that was cute. I wanted to detach the hands and feet to once again bring in an etherial feeling into the design. I also found a really nice colour pallete that I wanted to use, but the red of her hat was an addition by me to bring back an element from her original design. I also did two versions of the drawing where one of them has shading and the other doesn't.

Fun fact, when I introduced a friend to Touhou, they wanted to play the hardest game first (which was LoLK) and now they are terrified of Doremy :D

Also this is in complete contrast to the last drawing I did of Doremy Sweet lmaoooo

I bring you an alt design version of the chikorita line that I have designed. I combined it with my favorite dinosaur, hypsilphodon.

A Tsubakura alternative design based on Egyptian barn swallows.

And since I have no self control, it might turn into a full fledged set of character alt designs...

Recently, I’ve seen a number of people post their alt designs for Laughing Jack; so, I wanted to have a go!

I’ll probably be drawing him like this from now on, if people want it! 🤡🖤🤍

Had some more fantasy redesigns I’ve been super excited to share ⚜️ I think half the fun of these is the outfit designs ngl… I love getting to go back and do period fashion research & have some fun with layering and shapes you don’t see as often :3c

thank you so so much for both of these lovely people for letting me get creative (and a little insane)💛

THE BOI! I’m doing character designs for sans pap and frisk in class and I’m having so much fun

about those new hiveswap trolls.... yeah they get aleph null alt designs too

So I've been geeking out with Townscaper for the pas day and started building my DX alt uni version of Genova for fun and ideation

It's such a cute program, but I'm really missing options for ground elevation, since I'm thinking much of the slums are built highly differing levels with tons of steep alleyways, walk bridges, staircases, secret little courts and all that tasty stuff

and the municipal area should be towering high above the waterline as well

it needs verticality and platforms to imitate that cyberpunk feel

I managed to import an early experiment right into 3dsmax, but this larger town proper keeps getting me error messages

first vid was broken so added it again >.>

being the only Yatsuhashi fan is hard but i do everything with love

I RETURN BEARING DOODLES OF ZE KEIK!

Hello again! :D I felt like drawing Keiki because I had nothing else to do and I also wanted to draw Keiki again because C R E A T E !

{Artists Note}:

So I had some ideas bouncing around for how I wanted to draw Keiki, and the first time I went with a more robotic look that was inspired by BoTW. I also wanted an excuse to try out some stuff with collages, and so I used an 1800s drawing of a skeleton to put this together. I added a face and a head just for fun, but tbh I wasn't 100% happy with it even though I did like how it looked. I might wanna save the BoTW inspired parts for a future Okina design as I think the constellation motiffe some BoTW Sheikah stuff has fits her more (and I have adopted the headcanon that she has prosthetics, I love it so much).

Like ok, context for this is headcanons. So as I mentioned in my post about Eirin, I wanted to play around with the visual idea of gods in Touhou being very much related to what they're gods of.

So at first with Keiki I tried just making her look like a haniwa herself, but I ended up not going with that as I like the idea of her being distinguishable from the Haniwa she creates. So instead, I ended up going with a more cyberpunk aesthetic for her, inspired in part by Cyberpunk Edgerunners (no spoilers plz, I haven't finished it yet). It's also the reason why I did an alternative cyberpunk outfit for her (inspired by a dress I found on Pinterest).

I feel like the hardest things about drawing Keiki are her dress and hair bandanna. In the image above with her normal outfit, I had a lot of struggle with the sleeves, and I couldn't really get her hair bandanna right. In the faces I drew of her I had a slightly easier time, but still, it's hard to get it to look right. However in the alt design I gave her I somehow managed to make it look right??? Don't know what I did there but I actually like how it looks, so I'll keep what I did there in mind for the next time I draw her.

Speaking of her alt design, it was actually a lot of fun for me to do. I imagine that's her more "official" outfit, don't know what she'd where it for but I mainly drew it on her because i had a cool idea ok?

Also, on the day I drew her initial face render, I had watched Serial Experiments Lain and I think those vibes bled into the sketch version. Upon further inspection of the rendered and coloured version it kinda lost that but it's more to try out a different brush for my style.

Also also, I experimented with giving her earrings! Which didn't make it to the final cut, but still wanted to try it out! This also came as a learning experience on what makes Keiki look like Keiki... it's the hair bandanna, every time she doesn't have it, she doesn't look like herself.

To end it off, I think the unhinged Keiki face I drew for her expressions (since everyone I've been drawing recently has kinda all been lookin like varitations of this face -> (o _ o) gonna need to draw more expressions period actually, need practice on that) is now my favourite unhinged Keiki face I've ever drawn LOL. Expect more Keiki sketches in the future because I do love drawing my beloved blue haired blorbo.

The Pibby Apocalypse Arc

Finished my sketch! This outfit is inspired by OUAT Evil Queen Pilot episode, I love that outfit so much that i drew my OC with it, with a little touches of mine, I added stars stickers because i was afraid to mess the cape 😩 I added a Black Rose frame to give more depth! I like the results 😍😍😍❤️🤝🏻

hi id like to introduce the most dysfunctional blue man you've ever met. he cant read 😔
