I felt the nostalgic urge to recolor again.

In a way, this is a redesign of my oldest persona. You see, LONG before I was Alanna Artroid, my username was Alanna the Seedrian. Back then, I had NO idea how to make digital art. Thankfully, neither did MANY other people! We were cringe... but we were free. If nothing else, this shows how much online artists have grown over the years. Recolors like this are oddly therapeutic, I'd highly recommend it.

I'm not really a part of the Sonic fandom anymore, but I got inspired to make an OC. (Mainly because my favorite Sonic character EVER is in the newest game!) I'm SO happy with how she came out, her colors are perfect! I'll call her Petal. Petal the Seedrian! :D

And yes, that IS the Scepter of Darkness she's holding. I've got lore cooking. For those wondering, the background is from the hub world in Shadow Generations.

I like how we went over 2 years without anything Asbestos related in the game at all, and then in the span of about a month we find out there are 2 hot single moms that she is apparently fairly well acquainted with

And then they also revealed that she’s the type of weirdo who goes wherever she hears rumors of strange creatures being sighted and that she takes photos of wild animal carcasses and human bones she encounters in her travels and hangs them on her walls.

Probably the single best direction they could’ve taken her character. She’s a real freak 💕⚠️💕

After the pretty good 40th anniversary covers, HarperCollins comes out with these....

Like the four covers making a circle is nice, but you're never gonna have your books displayed like that, right? Also it's just generic fantasy items.

Two minor moments I really enjoy in the Alanna series:

The important one:

In The First Adventure when Alanna's friends tease her for not bathing and she gets sick of it and tells them off. And then they apologise even though it was just in good fun, because it hurt her. Honestly a very valuable lesson to teach children that they're allowed to tell their friends to stop doing something that hurts them, even when it isn't meant to do so.

The funny one:

In the final book when Alanna gleefully ships Thayet and Jon. She is literally going "Oh my gods my ex is gonna fall so hard for this chick, he doesn't even know it's coming, but he will NOT be able to look away and she will NOT be taking any of his shit. I will get him so good."

It's just so funny to see the transition from "Fuck this guy he hurt me so much and I don't even want to THINK about him" to "Fuck this guy I have found the perfect wife for him, and they WILL marry, and he WILL learn to behave"

I GRADUATED COLLEGE!!! I DID IT!!!

[artroidsart]

Now the original for THIS one is OLD!! I made that back in 2019!!!

It's surreal looking back at the original, seeing just how much my art has changed. I drew the old one back when I first got into Jackbox! That was over five years ago! That's… that's crazy! Party Pack 6 wasn't even a blink on the horizon yet! I just… I just had a feeling in my heart that TMP was special, ever since I first saw it. Even after all these years, I still love this series. A lot of people have come and gone, and a lot of things have changed in this fandom, but I'm amazed by how much love and talent is in this fandom.

Gosh, it's weird to say I'm feeling nostalgic over a horror trivia game, but it's true. Anyway, back to the remake here! Since this line is from the original Trivia Murder Party, I wanted to use a different outfit than the one I use for the sequel. (I made a different version of it for the ref sheet, but I wasn't happy with it. The colors didn't feel right. I like this one much better!) Just for the heck of it, I drew my human version of the Wrath doll. I haven't drawn the human dolls in a LONG while! I made a few small changed to this design, but nothing too crazy.

Also, I found out why I haven't felt inspired to make digital art lately! The new stylus I have works really well, but my shaky hands aren't steady. It make digital art a struggle for me. Thankfully, I found the solution! My laptop has a tablet mode, so I can pull it into my lap to work on art! It made using the stylus SO much easier!!! Now I won't be suffering through my digital work! (Hopefully, that means I can upload semi-regularly again!)

Wow, listen to me blabber on. Didn't mean for the description to go on THIS long. But hey, this piece makes me really happy. I hope you guys like it too. I can just FEEL how much I've improved, doing these remakes. If anyone else is feeling art-block, I'd highly recommend going back to old works and giving them new life! Thank you to everyone who has been with me on this journey, both old friends and new faces. You guys are the best. <3 <3 <3

Song of the Lioness Characters: Are they queer?

Alanna: YES, what the fuck, non-binary legend George: Are you joking? Bi. Gary: No, he's straight. But he is the straight guy at the pride parade wearing oh-so-many rainbows. Straight but not narrow, folks. Thom: He is gay. Yes. Alex: He is gay. BUT after hanging out with Roger for too long he started yelling at people for, quote, "using the q-slur," unquote. Raoul: Aromantic. Francis of Nond: RIP. He was a bit gay. Thayet: Bi. Buri: Bi, lesbian-leaning, gray-romantic. Big Thor: King of my heart. Queer because his name was Big Thor. The Goddess: Patron deity of heterosexuals. Liam: Straight :/ Jon: Bi-wife energy. Dated a non-binary person one time and it didn't work out. HAS had sex with George BUT didn't enjoy it and called him "bro" in bed. He tried a second time, just to see if it was a fluke. It was not. One time Raoul said, "Everyone in this group but Gary is queer,” and Jon had an existential crisis. Homophobic, despite all of his queer friends. Truly a mystery, even to himself.
