Alright, so I know @ozimul-reacts​ told me that I didn’t really have to do this, but I still wanted to see what the @magicbyhalves logo I made a few years ago would look like with the official Shantae font since it was discovered a few months back. 

Took a while for me to get around to actually doing this since I’ve been heavily focused on pixel art lately. 😅 I made a lot of small improvements to it since then as well. Pretty happy with the results. 

-Minimalistic logo

-Shantae logo colors

-Icon colors

A drawing every day in October for no reason.

Day 10: Working out colors for Volkan’s Fusion Coin transformations. Volkan’s a Tinkerbat on my Shantae blog who’s been living with Shantae for a while, and that leads to some interesting changes.

🖤 - magicbyhalves (Nega-Shantae. I know they've only chatted and memed a little but I'm Curious now)

(( @magicbyhalves HI NEGA!!! no honestly this is really valid because.....

stets actually has a vaguely similar insecurity with her as he does with wilt! he’s super jazzed to try and talk to her more, but it’s a bit of a double edged sword to see her in the chat so often just because of how Easily she gets along with and goofs with everyone.

he knows that theyre really similar, at least in terms of hey! half magic half human gang! but it leaves him wondering if he could be doing Better, how Can he do better. can i be as fun to talk to as she is???

but as with all of these, he knows that it’s Really Not Fair to feel like this, so he tries to push it down. and it ends up hindering his ability to actually reach out and Talk. (he’s still really happy she reached out recently! he just feels bad now because he SUPER doesn’t know how to engage Back) ))

I'm a bit late, but happy birthday @ozimulmakesartwork! Their general art and reblogs are always fun, and their Shantae rp blog @magicbyhalves is one of my favorites on this site! I drew their version of Shantae with their mascot, the amazing Robocat, on her shoulder! You should totally go check their blogs out! Sorry it's a bit sketchy, I haven't had time to color it yet :P

You're not entirely sure how it got here, but you've received a bag of chocolate chip cookies! The bag smells a little salty when you open it, but other than that, the cookies look great! The bag's been tied off with a purple ribbon, and there's a fancy "S" on the accompanying tag. Wait... aren't YOU an S? This is a mystery, clearly.

[ It is a mystemmie. ]

[ Just kidding, he knows these are from Shantae. And he’s very happy to receive them. ]

Posted this one already, but I made a @magicbyhalves version of it. 

Original here

wanted to see if “Volkan in Mimic’s coat” was as cute on paper as it was in my head

the answer is yes.

(Volkan - MagicByHalves epilogue)

[hedjeroo]

it is an absolute CRIME that i never posted my skeleton form shantae design before so i’m posting her now! (this is a 2019 work but she still holds up tbh)

i pretty much made this design for my friend’s shantae blog @magicbyhalves though it was also in response to a very rude person on twitter demanding i stop drawing skeletons... i will draw ALL the skeletons thank u

(maybe one day i’ll do proper art for the other alternate shantae forms i’ve designed?? who knows)

body headcanons (Shantae Cast)

Shantae

Is CONSTANTLY running around adventuring, dancing, and fighting. Solid, all-around muscle base. Eats a lot of recovery food (and has quite a sweet tooth), so she has a soft appearance - not quite to the extent of her father's strongman bulk and build, but a similar vein. Cannot feel anything on her back due to burn scars from the Oubliette of Suffering that she acquired while fully human, and wears a vest as an aid for spatial awareness. Moves like lightning.

Risky

Runs on Dark Magic and needs less resources to keep going, despite her expensive tastes, so she's a bit gaunt (aside from her face - she's proud of it, and her passive Dark Magic responds by keeping it looking healthy, if a bit sharp). Wiry muscle from leaping around on her ship. She doesn't look it, but she is heavy due to all of her internal modifications over the years. Hands are somewhat calloused from working with machinery and weaponry and ship rigging, though the effects are lessened by Dark Magic.

Sky

Strong arms and back muscles from hauling around bird feed and balancing war birds on her arms. Arms are covered in scratches and small scars at most times (accidents happen and talons are sharp). Has put on a bit of weight since settling in Scuttle Town, mostly sitting around her stomach and hips. Only cares because her parents nag her about it.

Rottytops

Literally swaps out whatever she wants when something breaks. Tries to keep her appearance consistent unless she's doing a bit or needs to reach something beyond her normal scope, but can often look mismatched. Her head and torso are OG, her limbs are not. Prefers strong running legs when she can get them. Is wearing contacts for her farsighted eyes.

Locket (aka Living/Soul Rottytops)

Played baseball while she was still alive. General athletic build with some emphasis on her legs for speed and her upper back for those ideal swings. Farsighted, wears glasses.

Bolo

Worried about his appearance and keeping up with his friends, so his muscles lean more toward "show" than "go". That said, his legs are strong, as are his hands. Hands are calloused from all the odd jobs he does. Constantly covered in bumps and bruises and scrapes in various states of recovery. Nearsighted, isn't doing anything about it.

Mimic

Has decent muscles from expedition work, but most of his weight is fat in his old age. Doesn't care about it in the least. Hands are rough from handling machinery in his workshop.

A drawing every day in October(?) for no reason.

Days 30 and 31: What do you call a werewolf-genie, anyway? Well, if they’re shapeshifters, it’s just another transformation.

I hope next year is less stressful re:this challenge. Thanks to everyone who’s liked my drawings over the past month!
