Magical guardian Py!! This is my magical girl sona design ✨

This is the page I drew when finalizing the concept and to serve as reference, but I plan to draw this design a lot more to represent myself! The little fox there is a little magical mascot/familiar based on an imaginary friend I made when I was little kid. I got some more notes about my process below!

A few years back I made a magical girl outfit design for myself because I love magical girl stories and designs, and you can do whatever you want forever! I HIGHLY recommend that anybody who feels comfortable depicting themselves to make a sona based around something you absolutely love. It's a lot of fun!!! I think at this point this design has gone through about 4 main iterations? I expect more tweaks in the future because I always like to have a design that reflects me and currently this is what I'm really vibing with! Tweaking this took SUCH a long time to get to something I really love right now, so this really feels like a triumph. When I set out to design this, I had created a bit of a wishlist of aesthetics and other elements I wanted, and then it was a matter of balancing everything visually and making some choices to remove and heavily tweak aspects of it so it wouldn't be too cluttered or lose visual harmony. I also played around with the lengths of different parts of the outfit for visual interest.

In this design are a few nods to some magical girl designs I still really love, but in recent time I feel like there's been a bit more inspiration from european renaissance fashion seeping in because I've been dabbling into period accurate costuming! Now, it's not at ALL accurate in this design but that's not really the point; I just wanted to give the sleeves and breeches that extra poof 👌 The rest of it just just really self indulgent, like the big butterfly wing cape was an ABSOLUTE must for me. My favourite colour is featured prominently. I wanted the inner wings and bow to look like the night sky or kind of galactic so that all those sparkles would really show up and evoke stars, but the orange pinks on other elements of the outfit compliment the blue-greens and give the look and overall sunset/sunrise at twilight vibe.

I kind of love the difference between them here. Watanuki finally gets a little moment of joy and immediately wishes that someone else he doesn’t even know that well could also be as happy as him. 

And Doumeki admits that she probably would if she actually ate it. The bold black background to the bottom frame really emphasises the judgement Doumeki is making here. The way he says it really hones in on the fact that she is the only one that’s holding herself back from accepting such an easy joy. 

It’s an interesting parallel to the little personal journey Watanuki just went through - being afraid of something, initially saying no, but then pushing himself and doing it anyway to get a great result. The customer could have the same exact journey if she can find the same drive that Watanuki did. If she never eats it, the only one she can blame is herself. 

Especially with Watanuki trying SO HARD to provide her with opportunities.

... Actually if you think about it that way, maybe Watanuki has the right strategy. If he had to be annoyed at Doumeki to the point that he'd rather eat the cookie than admit his fears, if Watanuki annoys the customer enough it might have the same result!

Hi I just wanted to say that every time your art crosses my dash it makes me so happy! Your poses and expressions are always so lively and the colors you pick are super nice! I love drawing with alcohol markers but they way you do it makes it almost seem like watercolors! You're a big inspiration to me, thank you for sharing your art with the world!

Thanks :-] it makes me very happy everytime someone mistakes my alcohol markers for watercolor

Oh wow, What a totally predictable day!

Ohh yeah, another Prime Rick in another dress, surprising an impressive number of zero people.

I guess nobody here need to be reminded. And that's what makes this artwork EVEN LESS surprising. That's my job: UNsurprise people. Have a nice day and WATCH SEASON SEVEN.
