Character (Linkle) © Nintendo

Let's keep that monthly poll going with what people voted for in December! Linkle is one of those characters that is slowly falling into the obscurity of Nintendo's lesser IPs and characters; but I always had a soft spot for her.
I did want to do something involving her aiming her crossbow. Elements like the Triforce felt perfect for the background, with the glows of each main character a part of it. I also wanted the lineart of two different characters from Hyrule Warriors, the same game Linkle is stuck in, as they play a big role in the story of the game.
Honestly really happy with the end result here, especially after a long while of not drawing.

The first art piece of the year ended up being a Secret Santa! I try my best to finish these before Christmas but ended up having to finish right at the deadline with everything going on. It happens sadly. At least it's done now! I'm really happy with the hair and the tail the most. While the hair is being pulled up by the shading, the tail was both fun and I felt like it did a great job capturing their design. It might have taken a while but finally here and came out so well!

Twas the night before christmas, and two centaurs have taken the task to help with devilvering gifts on Christmas day. The snow pouring down as they pull the sleigh up the mountain, as Basalees peak out of their forests once more to help and hang out. The two chat in the meantime as they get closer to an area where they can fly and start gift giving.

I always like doing these are pieces for the holidays! I think it's also the first time I did this with two centaurs, it's a little fitting ngl. I love how Hannah's attire came out the most tbh as she looks so adorable and fitting for the season. Still need to work on footsteps in the snow but it's slowly getting better and better! I feel like I'm slowly getting better with the lighting too with how they came out!

Before the end of the year, one last image for last year's OC Ballot Winner. Hannah deserves a little warm clothing for the winter season and went with this attire. Of course I had the horse jacket over her horse-half, with the upper half being a little more modern in terms of clothing. Seeing the hats with ear covers and string bits at work made me think of it as good idea. Incorporating armor felt more akin to puting a sweatshirt over a winter jacket, another layer that's easily added and removeable.

As voted by my Monthly Supporters, I drew an image of Cleo from H2O: Just Add Water. The theme for this poll was based on different IPs that helped shaped me like The Clone Wars and Madoka Magica and h2O was one of them that made me more recognize mermaids thanks to it's premiere on TeenNick here in the States, with Cleo being the one I related to the most. I wanted to make sure I did the character justice with my art style as I don't often do real life to anime art pieces. The magic was more just something for her to do and the mako mermaids always make me worried I get it right until it's shaded. The real challenge was the background as I wanted to both capture her underwater and the moon pool with the moon creeping over the abandoned volcano. It's probably my favorite part of the piece. So here's to you H20, being one of the IPs to help mold me into what I am today.

Michiko, The Bridal Princess

Years ago, Michiko was taken into a world in a book where she was a bridal princess, originally a fantasy meant to trap her their as her reality; until she escaped and looked at herself more positively. Now she is enjoying a comfortable life in the city but there are times where she does dabble back into the bridal princess form as a little treat on a day-off. And with her new cat being so affectionate, she was able to make a little bow for him so he can get in on the same joy she experiences briefly.

Designed by AzuraMermaidArts, this is the design that has impacted the most out of all my commissioned art pieces. However, I never drew it myself despite loving the art, mostly due to the fear of all the details. Now it is finally time to complete and drawing it myself made me remember why I loved it. It's so much detailed but never horribly clustered, poofy and a gown banner, the matching tiara, it all fits absolutely beautifully. Of course I wanted to do a somewhat dynamic pose, her grabbing the cloths of her skirt. I also wanted her cat Arthur there looking dapper and somewhat fitting the design.

The Guard Of The Guild

Character (https://toyhou.se/22118954.bethany-belsante) © @CentaurWorks

Bethany's job is simple but not often taken, that of a traveling guard for members of the Mercenaries' Guild. She often travels from outpost to outpost/inn. In exchange for food, bed and board, she focuses on protecting any place Guild-post. Often Extra Muscles that can be greatly appreciated. Essentially grunt work that goes overlooked but beyond appreciated by the people around her.

Inspired by MiraiHikariArt's art piece of Kisara from Tales of Arise, I wanted to have a piece where it showcased Bethany guarding one of the Guilds' locations. Getting the pose and the angle was the key thing in my mind, and trying to render the cake was something I was worried about. However, while everything else was improvised, I'm immensely proud of the cameos of Gwynfor and Haera, both my own characters. How they were done were a simple painted format, going over the sketch, using one type of brush. The result is honestly enthusiastically inspiring and makes me want to try again in a bigger image. The background being Autumn was due to a combination of the season at the time of creation, as well as wanting to match with the sunrise as well as Bethany's orange hair.

Passing the Torch

Character © CentaurWorks

Within the transition between old and new, within a storm, a clone trooper with a torch helps guide Claudia closer and closer to the exit. While she can survive, more and more this trooper gets taken by the dust storm. And right as they get close, her begins to fade as he passes the torch to Claudia.

With me hitting 3 decades of life soon, I wanted to do something to, well, pay tribute to my first character. Mikaru was a Jedi/Jet Trooper, but as you can probably tell he's no longer a character I even have on my big spreadsheet. But, the first step is always important. So, I drew Claudia who is at this point the big pillar in my lore and have Mikaru pass the torch. I tried to do something different with the shading on Claudia, matching the dusty flow. In the end, this is probably one of the last milestone pieces I wanted to do before the next birthday, and an apperciation of what has come before.

Truck-kun Midnight Secret

During the Isekai boom, there was a meme called "Truck-kun," going around on the interwebs, doing jokes about the obsurdities of the truck isekai-ing protagonists. However, I ended up thinking "What if it was doing this on purpose... and could it transform?" After that, I began brainstorming and leading to this. The design is simple, a combination of WFC (toyline) Ironhide and TFAnimated Shockwave. I knew I wanted it to pick up the body and have it's headlights focused on shining on it. It's a horror piece thru and thru, one with a WIP collecting dust for almost 3 years. While I could do more, I'd rather have it out in the wild for all to see this concept formed.

As voted, Princess Boosette took the stage. Given that this is a design more from the fans, there are many different designs and interpretations of her appearance. I tried my best to do one from several different looks and ended up with one that I thought fit her and my style. The background was harder than anticipated especially since I needed to curve the perspective. It was a struggle early on to the point I wanted to start that first end it paid off so well!
