August 2010

A Tamagotchi group on DA was holding a contest and inviting its members to create six new Tamagotchi characters, based on what sort of characters you wish existed in the Tama world! So, I went with PRETTY PLANTS. Even though the Violet Family already exists – my belief is that Violetchi is NOT PRETTY ENOUGH.

Hopefully my growth chart is pretty clear. Seedtchi is the baby, and depending upon how it’s taken care of, it may grow into either Sproutchi or Rootchi. Rootchi only grows into Apputchi as an adult, but Sproutchi may become Purantchi or Himepurantchi (a character that, in my imagination, would require a special item before evolving!).

Prettymuch this whole thing was just an excuse to draw Himepurantchi. <3<3 This was especially fun because I don't normally do monster designs, even though I'd like to. It's fun to be submitting things besides people. Variety is the spice of life!     Tamagotchi belongs to Bandai, but these particular characters are mine

I love all these little critters and the crazy, colorful world they inhabit. This one is Kizatchi, the big bro of the Violet Family, one of the many possible outcomes from the Familitchi generation of the toys.

He’s a little mischievous. >:3

OMG Tamagotchi… This is mama Majorite, big sis Makiko, and li’l sis Belltchi out for a day of shopping.

I drew this was right when I was rediscovering how amazing and adorable those little things are. The art style… the unique/insane characters… the toys and games are amazingly addictive. And there is an anime, and a movie, and another anime, and a pretty impressive Flash portal to play in.

Can’t help myself. Love everything about Tamagotchi.

Yessir, I plushed my own art!! Frilly Bows is, I suppose, my “self-insert OC” in the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic universe. (I would link to my original drawing of her but I don’t like it very much so this sentence is a placeholder until I upload the drawing that I like better.)

Hand-sewn from felt. Eyelashes, iris, and those white shiny highlights are embroidered on.

This was way fun. I just threw it all together in only a few days. Sculpting hair out of felt into those curls and swoops is, like, the most therapeutic thing. You just take your sheet of felt and freestyle with the scissors and in the end you get some fantastifabulous hair.

And I just happened to have some brown grosgrain ribbon in just the right width to actually put some real bows in her hair without just making fake-bows out of felt shapes.

IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL. LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.

From the colorful cast of everyone’s favorite trivia-boasting talking bean dogs, Mameshiba.

Machine-sewn from soft, cuddly fleece, and stuffed with love and knowledge. This is a large plush, about the size of the pillow you (hopefully) have on your bed.
