Ooohhh... so this is Picsou's mysterious 'new saga' Celoni was talking about:

"Scrooge's Destiny" by Fabio Celoni.

Fabio Celoni, taking care of both script and art, and Luca Merli (color) celebrate our big Uncle's 75th birthday with a new story picking up right where Romano Scarpa's legendary "Le lenticchie di Babilonia" ended.

#i'm curious #art is amazing #but colors are out of this world O.O #scrooge mcduck #scrooge mcduck 75th anniversary #fabio celoni #luca merli #new saga #romano scarpa #topolino magazine #disney ducks #italian disney comics #wonders from lucca #lucca comics 2022

Happy birthday to the number one princess in the world!! 💖

~from her biggest fans :)

ramble of my scattered thoughts on the piece under cut as usual cuz i love talking 😋

This has been an idea I've been cookin for a while, and it was so cluttered and unlike any other ensemble piece I've made... and I decided I oughta do it anyway. I love Miku, I love Vocaloid, and I wanted to do something really ambitious and crazy for her anniversary. Crazy that she's turning her "canon" age this year TwT

I had the idea floating around since like, May...? And then finally started acting on it around June 18. I'm terrible with deadlines, obvious with how I can never make a silly birthday post in time, so I started wayyyy ahead to make sure I have some room to be lazy lol, especially with an idea as ambitious as this.

This was finished on July 12! So I had to sit on this for an annoying amount of time. Very difficult for someone like me who just wants to talk about everything I'm working on to the masses. But at the very least, that gave me the time to work on the draft for this post.

~~~

Here's some ~behind the scenes~ scribbles leading up to the finished piece!

Left is the chicken scratch plan i made in my handy dandy notebook (whenever things are getting real and ambitious, i always made a rough ROUGH plan in there. Usually I'd do a rough pass of the full thing, but this was too complicated for me to do traditionally. I majorly benefited from digital tools to make this possible). CyberDiva and CyberSongman were considered, but I ended up cutting them cuz I just didn't feel like drawing them sorry-- (just pretend they're off to the side. They gave Ruby and Clara the pizza lol). Right is the "final" completed sketch (before I decided to include Chika mid-way through coloring and VY1 and VY2 near the finish line). I started by drawing the main "groups" separated on a different canvas so I can plop them into the main canvas for easy rearranging and transforming. However I got lazy and ended up drawing everyone in the bottom right corner directly on the canvas since I liked seeing the big picture of everyone's positions. Y'know.

Almost excluded Chika! But I like her design so much that I just felt like including her last-minute. You win this time, Chika fans. VY1 and VY2 were very close to being cut! I added them when I began doing the banner and thought "eh why not". I figured their non-human designs would be pretty easy to include pushed back in the bg. Ik VY1 is more commonly associated with the fan design, but I referenced the hairpin cuz it was simpler and the fan looked very annoying to draw 😭

Sorry to the fans of many Vocaloids I had to cut because this composition was insane enough as is. I promise I wanted to include fellas like CUL, LUMi and Sachiko 😭 I will admit I was a little biased on who I wanted to include over others. Like, I don't normally care for Bruno and Clara, but I wanted to get some more international 'loids in the mix. Also wanted to stick in the realm of official designs and not fan-designs since, as much as I can appreciate those, are just a whole "wait who is that guy supposed to be" situation I didn't wanna deal with. I also did wanna include even more character references through the balloons, but they ended up being kind of ugly and overcomplicated the BG :,) (Oh, and while this was originally planned to be a Vocaloid-only piece, I did end up including Teto, Neru, and Haku 'cuz those are Miku's besties dude!!! They may not be Officially in the club but they're her girls and it would be criminal to not invite them to her birthday).

Anyway, this project marks the first time I've drawn a lot of Vocaloids. Lily, Piko, Rana, Yuki, Yukari, Miki, Maika, and many more lol. All of 'em I've heard or seen in passing, but now I actually drew them, and some have really cool and fun designs!! I got into a habit of drawing Merli after this since I just love her design for example. And I'll probably be drawing more lol!!

Oh and the last thing I'll add for now!! The cake is indeed made up of various song references!! I wanted to reference the "big four" producers, just absolute icons in Vocaloid history. The pink/black checkerboard is "World is Mine" (Ryo), the crescents on the side is "Rolling Girl" (Wowaka), the smiley faces is "Matryoshka" (Hachi), and the three hearts on the side is "The Vampire" (DECO*27, which is sort of a symbol of his whole Mannequin album tbh). I know "The Vampire" is a bit modern but I couldn't think of anything else off the top of my head. I'm a fake DECO fan I know 😔 "Matryoshka" was originally going to be referenced in the colors of the candles but believe me it looked like shit so I just went for something else last minute 😭

That's all I have to say!!! Hope you didn't mind the text wall if you made it here. I hope you like it as much as I do!!!! Happy freakin' birthday Miku!!!!

I have to deal with tagging all these characters now for my page,,, in the drafts my tags got cut off after a certain point so I think I'm massively breaching the tag limit 😭 um... I'll figure that out later...

not losing sleep that i can't tag everyone, even for page organization purposes because some characters have pretty generic names and some are a little hard to see in full yknow. If you're one of those people who tag every character in the art piece you reblog... I am very sorry.

Which Vocaloids have Twitter?

as twitter slowly burns to ash, a question that may have crossed your mind is "how many vocaloids are still using twitter?"

just for fun, i've put together a list of every official vocaloid twitter account i can think of! this list includes account handles, when the account was made, the language the account promarily posts in (usually the vocaloid's native language), whether the account is still active, and any other notes i think are interesting.

these are organized by vocaloid release date, not twitter account creation date.

Hatsune Miku

Japanese account (cfm_miku) created January 2010, English account (cfm_miku_en) created February 2014

both accounts are still active

Camui Gackpo

Japanese account (GackpoOfficial) created July 2023

active

GUMI

Japanese account (GUMIfromMegpoid) created November 2016

active

SONiKA

English account (SonikaVocaloid) created July 2009

inactive since November 2012

SONiKA was the first Vocaloid to have an official Twitter account!

Lily

Japanese account (DjLily_Vocaloid) created February 2011

inactive since April 2011

there are only 20 tweets.

SeeU

SeeU doesn't have an official Twitter, but a Twitter account was made to promote and celebrate her 10th anniversary (SeeU10thAnniv)! it was made in August 2021 and posts in Korean and is still active!

Tone Rion

Japanese account (tonerion) created October 2011

inactive since August 2012

OLIVER

English account (vocaloid_oliver) created November 2011

he also has a Chinese account (Oliver__China) created in July 2021, but that account still frequently posts in English

both accounts are active

his main English account was inactive for a while, i believe between 2017 and 2020, but he's back on the net!

CUL

Japanese account (CUL1224) created June 2021

active

Bruno and Clara

Spanish/English account (V3BrunoClara) created August 2013

inactive since December 2021

they shared!

IA

this drama queen has had 4 accounts. one is IA_Official (Japanese account, created July 2019, active), another is IaWorldpage (Japanese/English account, created April 2014, inactive since August 2014), the third is the account she shared with her little sister ONE, IA_ONE_Official (apparently deleted?) and last is IA_GLOWB (English account, created July 2022, active).

these accounts are largely focused on IA as a CeVIO and Vtuber/virtual artist rather than as a Vocaloid.

Aoki Lapis/Merli

neither individual Vocaloid has a Twitter, but i-style Project, which was focused solely on them, had a Twitter account under the handle i_style_vc3. it has since been deleted.

Luo Tianyi

interestingly, Luo Tianyi has only a Japanese Twitter account (LTYjp), created in January 2018 and inactive since August 2020

none of the other Vsinger characters seem to have Twitter accounts. this is probably because Weibo, which they DO all have accounts for, is more widely used in China than Twitter. (and at this point? i'm jealous of them.)

AVANNA

English account (VocaloidAvanna) created August 2012

inactive since new year's day of 2014. her last tweet was: "Wishing everyone a wonderful 2014!"

YOHIOloid

English/Japanese account (YOHIOloid) created April 2013

inactive since September 2013

in case you didn't know, yohioloid was released on september 10, 2013. his last tweet (out of a total of 5) was made on september 15, 2013.

MAIKA

mostly English and only sometimes Spanish account (VocaloidMaika) created September 2013

inactive since October 2022

Macne Nana

Japanese account (macnenana) created June 2009

inactive since June 2020

Macne Nana was released for VOCALOID3 in 2014, so this account must have been initially made for her debut as a GarageBand and Reason plugin

anonkanon

Japanese account (Anon_Kanon) created February 2014

inactive since June 2015

flower

flower has 2 accounts! both are Japanese. the first one, v_flower_jp, was made in April 2014 and has been inactive since June 2021, except for 2 tweets in April 2022 about flower's CeVIO release. flower's second account, Ci_flower_, created for the CeVIO release, was made in March 2022 and is still active.

Tohoku Zunko

Japanese account (t_zunko) created July 2011

active

Rana

Japanese account (rana_0909) created June 2014

inactive since September 2022

Xin Hua

her Twitter account was XinHuaOfficial, but it was...suspended for violating the Twitter Rules!? what did she do?????

unity-chan! (Kohaku Otori)

Japanese account (UnityChan_PR) created December 2013

active

it should be noted that the account was made when she first debuted as Unity Japan's mascot, and this account mostly focuses on promoting the Unity engine. she hasn't posted anything about her Vocaloid release in quite a while.

Xingchen

English/Japanese/Chinese account (quad_stardust) created December 2015

active

this account mostly posts in English, though the bio is Japanese and the tweets and retweets sometimes contain Japanese or Chinese. i assume most Chinese posts, like the Vsingers, are made on Weibo instead.

Otomachi Una

Japanese account (otomachiuna) created May 2016

active

MATCHA and AZUKI

the project they were created for, Project 575, has a Japanese account (project575) created in May 2012. this was for MATCHA and AZUKI's private V2 voicebanks.

this account has basically been inactive since late 2017, but they do still diligently post happy birthday messages each year for the main Project 575 characters

LUMi

Japanese account (ava_lumi) created June 2017

inactive since June 2021

Mirai Komachi

Japanese account (miraikomachi_PR) created May 2018

active

this is kinda similar to unity-chan where Mirai Komachi, as a character, is essentially a mascot affiliated with Bandai Namco. but unlike unity-chan, she still seems to frequently acknowledge her existence as a Vocaloid.

Haruno Sora

Japanese account (harunosora17) created May 2022

active

MEIKA Hime and Mikoto

Japanese account (himemiko_jp) created June 2019

inactive since June 2021

Hime and Mikoto shared the account and would frequently sign off tweets with their respective emojis and katakana characters; Hime's was 👹 and �� and Mikoto's was 😈 and ミ.

#i can't actually fit all of these in the tags even when removing the ones that don't 100% count. oops.#bonus #btw sorry for the lack of links. i don't like the idea of linking directly to twitter right now.
