How'd they all end up? Augustus got to melt in the sun, Violet got to sleep in the dirt, Veruca got to fight internalised ableism, Mike got back problems, and Charlie got depression

Everytime we go on the CatCF tag we feel fear

'the Personifications' - the Collection - the Attendant

Fortuna's Collection is her pride and joy, and like a middle-aged woman adoring their tiny dog, she only wants the best for those she's blessed herself to look after.

So when they've proven themselves a particularly special entity, they may be allowed a visit from the Personification of Matter themself, and no longer do they need to spend decades in that stuffy costume!

A whole new form... a little Ascension, as a treat.~

Perhaps a controversial opinion, but having finally drawn the West-End Oompa Loompa...

Not a fan of the design that much.

The actual FX of the outfits are fantastic- that's such a Great way to get around the height issue- but their actual designs don't really stand out in a way you'd expect from an Oompa Loompa. 1971? Iconic. 2005? Very memorable. Musical? honestly quite forgettable. The same goes for the book too: despite CatCF being our lifetime special interest, I had to google it to remember what they looked like.

The musical feels like it tried to keep its designs closer to the book, but... maybe it shouldn't have? We love Quentin Blake's illustrations- an English treasure is he- but other than Willy Wonka himself, none of his CatCF designs are that memorable.

It might just be an unpopular personal opinion- although we did specialise in character design/concept art during our art degree, if that gives us any credibility- but sometimes, when the source material is lacking, it's better to diverge and play about and be inventive, than glue yourself to the idea of faithfulness.

'the Personifications' - Alice // Death - Concepts

'There's nothing like dying, and finding out that Death is a 'child' with the emotional range of a stressed & done 35 year old...

who also looks suspiciously like she came straight from Wonderland.'

we are so behind on finishing the unreleased personifications. Death, Smell, & Touch are all pretty far in their concept stage, we just haven't had the time nor energy to work on them.
