Here's my Trigun paper illustration made for the lovely @lovepeacezine! Leftover sales are closing soon so grab a copy here while you can! https://lovepeacezine.bigcartel.com/ Tons more photos and behind the scenes after the cut.

Close-ups of Vash and Wolfwood! I really pushed myself with this piece in terms of posing, depth, and materials, and am really proud of the results.

Close-ups of Milly and Meryl! I searched far and wide and pored through episodes to find good references for those Thomas mounts.

The true star of the piece, Kuroneko.

Here are the sketches for this piece- the idea was to show the characters' personalites through a story, so I chose to show Wolfwood & Vash hiding from Meryl & Milly, about to be caught due to Kuroneko's presence. In the final sketch, I pushed for stronger depth and posing.

The final template! Sometimes I'll make changes even after this step, as you can see with the previous Kuroneko design here, who is looking towards the girls instead of the guys as in the final piece.

I don't have many behind-the-scenes photos of this piece, unfortunately, but here's the uncropped version in the sun where I took photos and video. The sunlight made the piece brighter and has given it harder shadows than in the final photo.

I documented the framing process for this piece which I'll share a little later as its own post- it's super in depth and probably very boring to most people. 😅

I was really excited to finally use this paper that looked like wood, haha. I used it to build the crates behind Vash.

Framed! I'm really happy with how this piece turned out, especially getting out of my comfort zone to push the depth, paying more attention to the background, and telling a story with the characters.

Here's the video tour to show depth and detail:

Spin the wheel!

You are offered $20,000. In order to get the $20,000, you have to listen to the album chosen by the wheel from start to finish in one sitting. No breaks, no turning down the volume, no taking off the headphones. You have to listen to the album in its entirety.

No "I don't know this album" option, search it up yourselves and listen for a few seconds, expand your media diet

One of my favourite things to think about in Gravity Falls is that there's a kind, humble manual labourer who is repeatedly canonized as forgiving, compassionate, generous, and pure of heart. And his name is Jesus. and he's the comic relief guy
