[Caliper Beetle]

These bug studies are really great! I just saw your Grasshopper piece too, bright colours, great attention to detail and you make them look very cute!
Are you planning to do any other bug studies?

Wabulyte responds:

Awww thank you so much I really appreicate it! ;w; I'm hoping to do more studies over summer since I've been inspired by the sweet bugs in my garden!

[Happy Obon from Mo and Fortune!]

The Japanese/American culture-colliding reminds me very much of Ace Attorney!

DreamsBellArt responds:

haha thank you, those games are a big influence on how i write my "world", so the comparison is apt!

[Donkey Kong Bananza]

Great energy and motion! Feels like a frame out of a cartoon!
K. Rool deserves a comeback

[Retro Game Office]

It's amazing how an adjustment of palette can completely change the mood of a piece! The hand-drawn effects are a very nice touch and as usual love you finding creative ways to flex your Gamer Knowledge (tm).

Also Cool Spot!!

DreamsBellArt responds:

Thanks a bunch! Yes it's been fun to figure out how color schemes can really drastically change that.
You spotted the spot!

[Boo.]

I'll register you as a...
good piece of art!!!

[Travel Pak]

Great piece! I really love the thick outer-outlines combined with the white-highlights! Makes a really bright and cheerful feeling piece!
Also I spent way too long trying to figure out if that's a real Kirby cartridge or not lol

DreamsBellArt responds:

Thanks so much! I've been enjoying trying to make my art feel like photos where the bright direct sunlight has blown-out the white balance. I'm glad you enjoy!
ps. incase you were still wondering, it's Kirby's Star Stacker :)

[Looking for Love]

I love this and your Snufkin piece!
The way you coloured and lined this is very fitting for Tove Jansson-inspired pieces, very storybook-looking linework with great atmophere in the lighting. Excellent work!

Saw this on the day I just so happened to finish reading Comet in Moominland!
Very cute little Moomintroll, love how you captured the motion/weight in the running pose especially!

[mushroom farmers]

Really love this one! The slug-worker would absolutely need a sun-hat to work in the fields or they'd dry out! Very thoughtful character design!
Were you inspired by the IRL ants who grow mushrooms in their nests?

Pammeenevaeh responds:

Hey, thanks!

Ironically I genuinely didn't know that. I've just been wanting to make little ant civilians for a good while now. Cool ant fact

[it's me!!!1]

Really cool piece! I love the lines and the colours a lot! Full of style and energy!

What does the text say in the background? Or is that a secret?

skrepkaaa responds:

OMG THANKS !! <3
