As promised in my last post, I cosplayed as Harley Quinn for Athens fantasy festival 2k24!

I had SO much fun at the con, it's unbelievable. I got lots of stuff (mostly Harley/harlivy themed, with the exception of a Zelda sticker that a friend got me and a d 20 choker):

(here is the stuff mentioned)

And met lots of people:

About the cosplay itself:

I sew the top, the shorts and the gloves, wore some normal red/black socks I already had, and wore some really cute platformed converse shoes that I found at a flea market for 5 euros which you sadly can't see in any of the pics.

You can expect new Harley art, based on my cosplay, pretty soon, hopefully!!

New animation!!

Harley and Ivy lady and the tramping on a date at mama macaroni's!

I ran out of ideas for a week or so but thankfully a friend of mine came in clutch and gave me the idea for drawing Harley and Ivy on a date, which I originally didn't really care for, but then I got the idea for the lady and the tramp kiss scene, so I did that (the doughnut is a tribute to my friend because he suggested doughnuts).

I wasn't even planning on doing more Harlivy for a bit, but they're too cute not to make fanart of, also I started reading the eat bang kill tour comic and I LOVED the art style so I tried replicating it for this animation, and I think I did a pretty good job at that.

I have no clue what I'm gonna be doing next, but there's like a 70% chance of being more Harlivy lol.

Also, I'm planning on a Harley Quinn cosplay, so expect that around the end of this month!

New animation!

This has been my longest project so far (started it 2 days ago, probably at least 24 accumulated hours), and of course also my longest animation (which doesn't really mean much tbh)

I'm not too happy with how this turned out (mostly Ivy) but part of learning is making stuff you don't think is perfect, so I will use my mistakes to learn for the next time. I do like how I did Harley's bangs though. Also I did the entire thing with no reference for the animation itself which I'm pretty proud of, although it's probably a stupid thing to do. Nor did I storyboard or keyframe or anything, which probably made the entire process unnecessarily hard but I managed to do it anyway.

This was a pretty fun project, but I'll probably do less Harlivy for the time being because I've exhausted my only three ideas for them.

I hope you enjoy!!

Ahoy again!

I got bored of the album cover I had as my wallpaper on my phone, so I decided to make a new one, based on my latest hyperfixation!

Feel free to use it as a wallpaper if you for some reason want to, I don't mind.

This one was quick and fairly simple, made it in about 7 hours maybe.

I hope you enjoy!!

Ahoy, New piece!

I watched the Harley Quinn show recently and kinda got obsessed, so I decided to make this, based on my favorite scene in the show (every time I watch it I audibly aww).

This is also the most intricate animation I've done so far (which doesn't mean much but still), and I had quite a lot of fun making it. It took me around 14 hours.

I hope you like it!

No fucking way, thank you so much, that's insane.

I didn't know who you were till a few minutes ago so I was really perplexed as to why so many people were reblogging your reblog and why I got so much attention out of nowhere and then I looked you up and oh my fucking god you're the guy that created the unbeatable squirrel girl comics (which by the way I've read I think all of and obviously loved)!

I'm geeking out hard rn, absolutely giggling and kicking my feet.

Squirrel Girl!

Easily my fave superhero, she's so cool and cute and awesome etc.

I think this turned out pretty good, considering I was hungry and sleep deprived for most of the time I was making this in.

I did the doughnut thing in blender!

First time really using blender, of course following blender guru's tutorial, and I think it turned out pretty good, although too realistic for my taste.

This was just a test thing, to learn to use the program, so I'm of course gonna go back to low-poly, because I prefer both the style and the process more than this more realistic style.

Ahoy!

Today I made this, which is my first dip into 3d art, and I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I haven't had this much fun making something since I was like 10 building with Lego.

I didn't make art of my oc this time, because I wanted a little break from that (might make a little model of her eventually though), because this time I wanted something more chill and more important to me, so I made this, a *new* 3ds with animal crossing New leaf ready to play.

The new 3ds was my first ever console, and new leaf is one of my favorite games of all time, so it felt fitting for a nostalgia-based piece.

I worked on this for about like 14-15 hours, and I absolutely love the result!

Needless to say, I'll be making more low-poly.

Another piece of pixel art of my oc (yeah I'm mildly obsessed, o genuinely can't draw anything else at the moment), this time as a painting using the lorulean equivalent of the bow of light.

This time I decided to do an animation because why not, and it was I think the quickest piece of the three I've posted be ause of how simple it is.

I think this one's pretty good, especially considering it's my second ever animation.

Another drawing of my oc (with a bonus Hilda painting because I ended up not using it in the actual piece).

The background is kinda shit tbh (that's why I blurred it) but generally I think this one's pretty alright.

[gloriavankuik]

Ahoy, this is an oc I made for the legend of Zelda, which is a mix of Ravio from a link between worlds and linkle.

I have only seen one person try to combine the two, so I decided to do it myself.

I hope you enjoy!
