I think these extra snow days threw everyone off, to be honest.
Like, we were trapped in this weird transition state between the holidays and “normal life” that wasn’t fully complete due to being stuck at home. Everything suddenly seemed much longer.
Now things are finally starting to creak back to life. Of course, with COVID still bouncing around, who knows how long that’s going to last, but whatever. Enjoy it while we got it.
Pip could use some elves.
And some sleep.
He does have an email address, but sometimes he doesn’t get around to checking it.
So summoning ritual it is!
Also – would like to point out that is smoke and not a wading pool.
A better question should probably be, where the heck did they get all that coal from?
Because is it truly an October drawing challenge if I don’t draw my mini Cthulhus?
There we are! All 31 prompts in the bag (even if it isn’t quite October anymore)! Had a lot of fun with this challenge, with a bit more focus on characters than last year, which mostly focused on a moment in time/scene.
And now my hand hurts. Time for a rest.
What a time for everyone to show their colors off!
I need to actually map out where everything is in this universe.
Not everyone lives in the immediate neighborhood – Cleo and most of the Paw Pioneers, for example. And the mermaids, of course. Unless they had a saltwater swimming pool.
Also pretty sure the Seasons live somewhere else, but they just like to hang around. Especially Spring and Summer.
Been drawing these guys a lot lately, and thought they needed a formal introduction!
Kind of funny how they started off as a Inktober drawing and somehow morphed into this – like Arugthor, who I haven’t drawn in ages. They are fun to draw – even if I keep needing to remind myself which kid has which markings.
Also was trying to come up with a job that would allow Pip to work from home so he could keep track of the kids, because single dad. For some reason, children’s book illustrator was literally the first thing that came to mind. So I just rolled with it.
Seriously, Pip. Hide the grimoire.
One of those basic rules of raising your mini Lovecraftian horrors: always keep your grimoires out of reach.
