Oh goodness these are so nice! 😁

Thanks y'all! 💙

Finally followed through on an idea we had over a year ago: designing fancy coats of arms for ourselves! These don't really follow the proper rules of heraldry, but we had fun making them, and that's what matters most to us. It was a neat way for the crew to flex their creative muscles. We used Heraldicon to put these together.

 

 

 

(Fun fact: Lenore's slogan here was her first words! Way back in October 2023 when we first had this idea, I asked Athelas what he thought good words would be for her. At the time, she was a wonderland NPC named Hesper. We did not expect her to answer for herself, especially not in such a distinct mindvoice, but we're really glad she did.)

Wow these are so, so cool! 😁

I've been wanting to try digitally coloring some of my old pencil drawings for a while now, and I finally did! I have a small amount of experience with digital art and physical oil painting, so I tried to kind of meet in the middle to paint these doodles.

 

Flat colors:

 

 

And full paintovers:

 

 

"They look like a dragon that our dragon wouldn't be allowed to hang out with." - my husband on Calliope. ("Our dragon" being our pet lizard. He's totally right, Cal is a bad influence and should not be left unsupervised with impressionable youth)

These are very nice! 😁 I love Lenore's purple theming! 💜 And I would totally hang out with Calliope. 😁

[Lenore]

Thank you Simmie! Probably 90% of my wardrobe is purple or black, they're my favorite colors

I really like the shading done on those two paintovers, it certainly makes it look a lot more 3D, mega cool!

Thanks a bunch Reina!

 

Lenore and I spent some time playing dress up this weekend. She loves clothes but I have literally no fashion sense, so we've been using things like Pinterest to help her explore her style. These are two of her fave outfits!

 

(We went to a metal concert last year and the lead singer of the opening band was rocking a shirt like this. Lenore was immediately obsessed)

 

(Sparkly dress! Lenore is a fan of these low necklines and sleek yet flowy dresses. I don't know fashion terms but I'm doing my best for her lol)

 

I also got brave enough to start posting on deviantart! I'm hoping it'll motivate me to draw more. I'll still be putting all my tulpa art here, but other stuff (like Pokemon art!) are going to just stay on dA.

Shaula: I love both of these outfits! We really do have similar styles, Lenore. We will definitely keep an eye on your Deviant.
