I've been pretty busy recently, so I'm posting the rest of the Carsmas drawings only now 😅

Here are Week 2 and 3

Week 2: I drew Flo and Guido showing the difference between us Italians and the rest of the world when it comes to put sugar on Pandoro, since it's an important Italian Christmas tradition after all XD

Week 3: since this was about Cars ships and my OTP is Jeff x Lewis, here is Jeff being happy that he received a cute Lewis plushie 🥺

For Week 4 I'm gonna post it separately bc it's gonna be the Christmas special drawing 😁

Ask for @penname-artist that disappeared from my inbox because it spent so long in it.

WGP Racers Headcanons:

I’m not excessively well versed on them, but I shall give this a damn good go for you, my fine friend!

Lightning Mcqueen - Lightning spends a portion of his free time watching Doc’s old racing videos. He wants to try and pick up on anything that the older race car didn’t get the chance to teach him before he died. That and he misses him and just wants some semblance of his company again. 

Shovels food like whatever he is eating is his last meal. Sally has had to slow him down more than once to prevent indigestion. 

He snores. Really loud. It's utterly obnoxious and it can be heard down the street. If she didn't love him, Sally would have suffocated him in his sleep by now. 

Francesco Bernoulli - Francesco has travelled thousands of miles just to make it home in time for dinner. His mothers' home cooking is utter perfection and so worth every penny he spends on travelling. 

Had a small dinner party, inviting each of the WGP racers to attend. Initially, McQueen wasn’t invited.

He actually became amazing “Frienemies” with McQueen, their competitive natures slowly melting into jovial banter between them. Although their relationship is nowhere close to the friendship that Lightning has with Bobby and Cal, they still get on quite well. They often have arguments online, simply for shits and giggles. 

Jeff Gorvette - Gets along sportingly with Lewis and takes any opportunity to hang out with him. Although their hobbies and interests vary greatly from one another, they often have weekends together to just take it easy.

After his retirement, Jeff took to painting and is now a very accomplished artist. He takes commissions from his friends. Free of charge. 

Terrified of spiders. Lewis takes the piss.

Lewis Hamilton - Is a trained martial artist. He practises Shotokan karate when he's not racing and often goes to watch competitions. It's his favourite Olympic sport to watch. He has tried to teach Jeff some movies but Jeff just gets a bit scared at his intensity and runs away. 

Loves to go out partying and pretty much always invites Jeff along for the ride. They try their best to stay out of trouble, but it's hard to do as Jeff is a mental drunk. 

Max Schnell - Max adores outdoor adventuring and losing himself in woodlands and forests. He spent all his time as a child in the natural environment so it feels more like home to him than any other environment on earth. This is the first place he will go to when stressed. 

Has a real sweet tooth. Will kill for a profiterole and adores a well constructed crumble.

Max is well-versed in multiple languages as he loves to travel and wants to ensure that he is understood wherever he goes. He deems it impolite to go to a foreign land and not at least try to converse in the native tongue. He became interested in languages and is fluent in German (obviously), English, French and Italian. He is trying to learn Japanese and Shu is helping. 

Went to an engineering school and studied to become an engineer. When he became a racer, he utilised his knowledge to benefit his career. He’s incredibly intelligent and uses this to help his fellow racers and friends.

Raoul CaRoule - Raoul is pretty much the calmest vehicle in the world when it comes to problems. He doesn’t fret, doesn’t stress and takes everything as it comes. He’s great to be around in tricky situations as he's usually the first with a solution to a problem. 

He adores getting his tyres dirty. No matter where he goes in the world, he has to make sure he gets covered in dust and mud. It makes him feel alive, free, happy and it takes him right back to his roots. 

Raoul is very active and enjoys challenges. Learning new physical skills helps his restless mind. Lewis is teaching him Karate and Raoul loves it. He's going for his black belt very soon. 

He wants to learn how to dance. 

Carla Veloso - Carla loves to party. She’ll dance away for hours and not give a damn about who’s watching. She is spritely and loves to socialise at any given opportunity. 

She can drink and has drunk all of her fellow WGP racers under the table. 

Carla got into racing when she was very young, coming from a family of incredibly fast vehicles who would watch the races with her. It was all she ever wanted to do and her dreams were well supported. 

She loves tractors and finds them hilarious. 

Shu Todoroki - Although his last name means ‘thunderous sound’, Shu himself is anything but loud. He is quietly spoken and keeps to himself most of the time. Although he does end up being quite close with Raoul during the WGP and keeps in regular contact with him. 

Shu appreciates his alone time and will often go off to simply be by himself for a little while. He needs to recharge after a large gathering, though he is by no means anxious or afraid of them. 

His paint job is of the Ka-Riu dragon. He chose it to represent his incredible abilities to simply plough through any tough situation, and to symbolise his high levels of grit and determination. He never shies away from anything, no matter how difficult it may seem.

Nigel Gearsley - A very well spoken gentleman; courteous in every way. Nigel comes from a well off family and was brought up in the world of racing. He has an incredible level of stamina from training on Aston Hill Mountain that's near impossible to beat. 

He got Ramone to change his paint colour after the race at Radiator Springs. He told him to “go wild”. Fillmore ended up getting involved and Nigel ended up with Tie-Dye patterns. He certainly didn’t complain. 

Nigel is a bit of a history buff. He loved history in high school and ended up going into higher education and studying British history. He is particularly interested in subjects surrounding the royal family. 

Miguel Camino - Miguel is a thrill seeker and loves sports that involve danger and intense competition. He adores high intensity activities and has gone skydiving on many occasions. As long as he is free, he will always participate in the running of the bulldozers. 

He is a total show off. He will display himself at any given opportunity for any crowd that's willing to watch him. He exudes confidence with everything he does and is the envy of a lot of his acquaintances. 

He gets on really well with Raoul. They have a bouncy energy together and it's infectious. 

He loves gelato. He will get himself to a gelato bar as often as he possibly can. There aren't many flavours that he hasn’t tried and he plans to try each flavour from each place he goes to. His favourite is lemon. 

Rip Clutchgoneski - Rip is an incredibly humble vehicle, attributing his successes to luck of the draw, when in reality, he is very skilled. He just doesn’t notice it. He lacks confidence in himself quite often and occasionally needs a little boost from his friends and colleagues, especially when he begins to question his abilities. 

He is naturally funny and often pulls amazing jokes that put those who hear them into fits of laughter. He always seems happy. Even in bad situations, he holds a strong position and keeps himself and others laughing. 

Rip is a fan of Dusty Crophopper since he feels a kinship with him. Dusty built himself from the ground up just as Rip did for himself in the racing world. 

He is an avid gamer and loves to spend hours of his spare time online with friends and strangers alike. He favours racing games but has a soft spot for Minecraft.

Everything that is different than Canon in my Marvel DC Crossover AU fanfic

-DC movies after Justice League: Apokolips War and Marvel movies after Thor: Love and Thunder are not considered ‘canon’ in this AU

-During Avengers:Endgame instead of Natasha sacrificing herself it is instead Clint Barton (which means Kate Bishop’s mentor is Black Widow instead of Hawkeye, this concept will be explored in future works outside of the main WGP fic)

-America Chavez exists somewhere in the canon of this series just not the main universe (and hardly will ever get mentioned let alone screentime, so sorry to America fans)

Additional things that are mentioned and/or included

-This crossover also branches out to the Loki Comic series (I wanted to include the comic series in this as I had found it around the time I started working on this project) but just that specific comic series

-There is the concept of the multiverse and different dimensions as well as Variants in this fanfic (it’s incredibly simple in this first fic though don’t worry)

-Damirae ship, this Fic was started primarily BECAUSE of this ship so expect a lot of fluff and cute moments between them

Long term plans for WGP as a series

-WGP (or “With Great Power”) is the first fic I have planned in a series of fics detailing the events of the main storyline that shapes nearly all of my other works (yes it is all connected, no that’s not just a theory because it’s canon. I’m writing it into existence)

The order will go:

WGP

-Crossover DC/Marvel Damirae fic

WGP: Intermission

-this one is a side story and mainly focuses on Kara and her backstory, Multiversal Lore gets a bit more intense than the first fic (The Ninjago universe will be the primary setting for this one..you’ll see why when it comes out)

WGP: Part Two

- The official sequel to WGP! All the characters you know and love from the first fic (and some from the intermission) will make an appearance. Also the multiversal Lore gets cranked up to 100 in this one so read at your own risk. (this fic has less of a focus on the Damirae ship so if you started reading WGP just for that I encourage you to stick around but if this one isn’t for you I totally understand!)

WGP: The epilogues

-A series of one shots and short stories of the aftermath of WGP: Part Two

-either set right after the events of Part Two or years after when the main cast are all adults

-there may not be many of these depending on what I’m planning to do with other projects or if I’m just not feeling it/OR there may be a LOT of these…it just depends on what I’m feeling and the overall reception to these stories

And that’s everything for the WGP “franchise”! If you’re intrigued consider following me for updates :D

CARSTOBER 2023 - Day 24

Favourite Crew Chief: Mach Matsuo

I could finally post this one day late 😅

Later I'll also make the one for today

Anyway, as his bio says, Matsuo used to be one of the greatest Japanese champions and he used to race in Europe too, but then he decided to start a new carrier as coach and so Shu became his pupil

I like this bc it sounds like Doc and Lightning's dynamic, but here the pupil is actually disciplined. Pretty fitting for a Japanese team 😆

Hope you like it ☺️
