This is one of my favorite recent pieces that Tumblr hasn't seen yet, so I thought that I'd upload it here, too! A little interpretation of a humanized Fluttershy and Discord, because I am soft for them. ☺

one of the cutest things humans can do is discover a thing and immediately show it to a friend who will like it more. deriving joy from something that a friend likes solely because you love your friend is cute enough, but seeking them out to show them the thing is priceless

Some Muppet/puppet doodles of my persona! I'd love to make a real puppet version of the gremlin one day, what do you think?

A commission that I made for a close friend! It's a cute little capybara on a donut. 💖 Also, just as a reminder, I have commissions open! 👏 You can follow the link in my bio to Ko-Fi, where I have an example sheet -- and if there's something that you'd be interested in that you don't see there, just let me know!

What are your three favorite things about Vincent and Witherspoon as individual characters? There are lots of things I love about them, but I want to hear from you as the creator!

Awww, thank you so much for the ask, that's so kind of you girl!! C: That's a really nice question, and I really appreciate being able to ramble a bit ehehe!!

For Vincent, I would say, A) as someone who has grown up Southern, it meant a lot to me to create a Southern character who was portrayed in a positive light. He's unabashedly Southern but he's not a stereotype of it, if that makes any sense. He IS a bit silly, but he's also very intelligent and capable! It feels very comforting to me to have a character with a Southern drawl.

B), Vincent is genuinely kind. He really and truly wants the best for everyone around him, even if they call themselves his enemy, and it's zero to none for him to actually hold a grudge against anyone. He's not perfect, and has his own flaws, but he hasn't let the often very cynical nature of the world affect him to the point of allowing him to grow bitter, even though he's had a lot of chances for this to happen.

He's truly a safe person to be around.

C), I can't really go into it too much because it's spoiler-y in nature, but in-story he is associated heavily with trippy dream settings where reality is altered in uneasy ways, where liminal spaces and crazy aesthetics come into play. This is one thing that I'm REALLY looking forward to showing visually! It'll get very weird!

For Witherspoon, A) It's a bit simple, but it genuinely makes me happy that he is based on Bluejays. :) They are my favorite bird, and honestly it just makes me happy to see them.

B), Witherspoon is someone who thinks that he is a very bad person, and he instinctively wonders quite often why anyone would want to be around him. He's a loner by nature, but this added causes him to isolate himself and sometimes even hate himself. Little does he know, though, he is SO loved, and he is loved for exactly who he's always been. He's the most loved person in the whole story, and he has always deserved to be loved.

C), It may be a bit silly, but despite the fact that he is a vigilante/hitman in profession, I also imagine him as a very safe presence. He truly tries his best to make the right judgment calls, and he is honest to his core. Witherspoon would be very hard-pressed to ever lie or show dishonesty about anything, even to his own detriment -- (which happens). Even if he's dealing with those he doesn't like/trust, he absolutely refuses to cheat anyone. If he has sworn an oath to you, he'll never break it.

I made a YouTube video where I redesign Shadow the Hedgehog in my style (just for fun)! I enjoyed making my own little interpretation! Follow the link in my bio to go to my YouTube channel, or look for Jazzleeillustrates there. What characters (Sonic or not) would you like to see me take a try at redesigning?

Hello! I'm a Christian artist who loves to create fun, quirky and colorful art! This is a cozy place where you can come in, relax, and liste

Ta-da! I decided to make a Discord community server! 🎉 I will be posting updates about my comic, sharing art and making fun projects and events here! 👀👏 If you'd like to join, please follow the link!

And YES, more than half of these tropes fit Discord, that's why I cannot shake this scrunkly even 10+ years later...

(Especially since I really love the headcanons that say Discord was an artifically created being/homunculus... it's not canon but... it's not not canon either)

Some of my favorite tropes!

(just for the heck of it)

Character who starts out as an antagonist/villain and goes through a redemption arc

^ The above, but after they are redeemed, they still struggle to integrate in with 'the good guys' and have a long road of earning the trust of others

Homunculus/artificially created being who is misunderstood by others/longs to understand humanity

^ Especially when they are good but were created by someone evil

As an alternative take, a homunculus/artificially created being who was made by someone very good and struggles to live up to their creator's light

A very hard to get along with/seemingly jerk-y character who is actually extremely loving and sensitive deep down, and it shows around the people they trust

Siblings who are mirrors of the other (what they might be, could have been, and wish they were), who understand each other more deeply than anyone else but struggle to reconcile themselves to one another

Villains/antagonists who give the hero a terrible time but are actually really kind and considerate to their own associates (has a found family with all of their henchmen, has really good healthcare benefits and perks for their workers, is able to upkeep positive relationships and is actually respected)
