Looking back over May, I am so proud of myself for not only completing this challenge, but drawing every entry in a different style. I learned so much in just 31 days and exercised artistic muscles I forgot I even had.

I want to say thank you once again to the organizer of Hermit-A-Day May ( @as-if-unreal ) and the artists who pledged their time and effort to provide incentives for the Gamers Outreach fundraiser ( @rendiggitydog and @belmarzi ) as well as everyone else who helped run this project.

I also want to say a huge congratulations to everyone who participated in the Hermit-A-Day May challenge for raising a total of $1,222.00 for Gamers Outreach.

Thank you for helping the kids and thank you for enjoying my art!

HERMIT A DAY MAY - DAY 26

Hermit PVP x Pokémon

I wanted to do something a little different for this day, so I drew Pokémon!

I really enjoy the Hermits impromptu battles on Gems (unintentional) beach arena, so that's the group/collab moment I decided to draw for today. And for that, I thought Pokémon would be perfect!

This is more of a design challenge than a style challenge today - all the Hermits were redesigned as regional variants of existing Pokémon. So instead of putting my references under the cut, I'm going to put the Pokémon I created variants for and their variant typings. See if you can guess them before you look!

Gem is a Water/Steel type Pawniard

Ren is an Electric/Poison type Rockruff

xB is a Water type Koffing

Scar is a Dark/Flying type Impidimp

BDubs is a Grass/Fairy type Tangela

Etho is an Ice type Fennekin

this was a lot of fun!!!! Also Etho gains the ghost typing as he evolves and Ren has a dual form evolution one form leans into the electric typing and the other the poison depending on how much time he spends in the spores hermitaday hermitcraft ethoslab bdoubleo100 bdubs gtwscar goodtimeswithscar xbcrafted xB geminitay rendog RentheDog

omg please watch the clip OP linked Im begging you

Comic panel 1 out of 3. A drawing of Docm77 discussing with Pearlescentmoon and TangoTek about his mailbox. Doc has speech bubbles of a mailbox and a Minecraft boat to resemble his explanations. Pearl and Tango are listening, though hesitant with Doc's plans. End ID.

Comic panel 2 out of 3. On the left of the image, Tango takes out his communicator and types out in-game chat:
"Etho
Doc wants his mailbox
Get on that
M'kay?"
Doc and Pearl are in the background, with Doc still talking and Pearl still reluctant. On the right of the image, Tango notices Etho come into view. End ID.

Comic panel 3 out of 3. Tango bursts out laughing as Etho frantically waves his hands and shakes his head no. Doc says to Tango, "I just need a mailbox," and hasn't noticed Etho behind him. He looks a bit confused. There is bold text "HAHAHAH" coming from Tango to resemble how loud he is. End ID.

yes doc yeS DOC *YES DOC*

A tweet from a redacted user that reads: "Maybe keep it off hermitcraft." @docm77 replies: "Well, look at it on a personal level. When you say "keep it off", that means Cleo and Gem are not welcome. That is not the case though. The reality is, wether you like it or not, I love them both dearly and they ain't going nowhere."

Doc is fighting the good fight on Twitter (calling out people who hate his rainbow beacon) and idk I thought this was very sweet

HERMIT A DAY MAY - DAY 30

SmallishBeans x Mononoke

Minecraft youtuber SmallishBeans (aka Joel) drawn in the style of Mononoke. He is in a traditional Japanese outfit which is light pink and green with sakura blossoms along the sides. He is wearing red face paint reminiscent of a tanuki and long green nails. Behind him is a painting of cherry blossoms. The entire image has a papery texture. Next to Joel is a rectangle with a green-yellow-red gradient which has his YouTube handle written vertically inside it in black. This text looks like its been painted with an ink brush.

For Joel I chose the gorgeous anime mini series, Mononoke!

I chose this for Joel because Mononoke is the most beautiful anime I have ever seen. Others have come close, but Mononoke is number one for me. The bright colors, detail, and texture variation remind me a lot of Joel's base.

The show is animated with a paper texture and looks like a moving Edo era ukiyo-e woodblock print. Still images don't do the show justice, so please go watch it.

Do note, however, that the show is technically horror. The series is beautiful but very eerie and touches on dark topics. It also has a lot of surreal imagery that could be upsetting to some people, so discretion is advised.

To learn more about Mononoke and see my style references, go below the cut.

@hermitadaymay

(Gamers Outreach fundraiser)

Mononoke is the story of a nameless person known only as the Medicine Seller who wanders Edo era Japan. The enigmatic figure seeks out restless spirits called mononoke who bind themselves to negative emotion and haunt the living. The Medicine Seller finds ways to get close to the spirits and learns their purpose for lingering in the human world, then attempts to exorcise them. Every two to three episodes follows the story of an new exorcism.

The draw of the show, in addition to its beauty, comes from unravelling the mystery behind each mononoke, since the Medicine Seller can't perform an exorcism until he understands what happened to cause the spirit to become attached to a specific place or person.

The show feels almost like a detective story, but a really creepy one where you're not really sure what's going on half the time. Mononoke is unique, and definitely not everyone's cup of tea. However, even if the genre isn't your vibe, it's definitely worth watching at least some of it for the visuals alone.

Style references:

The Medicine Seller from Mononoke. He is an elegant looking man with large pointed ears and long, light brown hair. He has pale skin, purple eyes, and red face paint that surrounds his eyes and highlights the bridge of his nose. He is wearing a purple bandana over his hair and is dressed in a light blue traditional Japanese outfit (I am sorry, I don’t know what its called, it looks like a kimono to me but I don’t have much knowledge about this). In this image he is staring down the viewer and holding up the palm of his hand in a ’stop’ gesture. Behind him is a painted background of cherry blossom trees. The entire image has a papery texture.

The show has a papery texture behind the animation, making even very simple shots look really detailed and beautiful.

The medicine seller viewed from a low angle. He is inside the most colorful building you can imagine with busy patterns along all the walls and the stairwell above him. The ceiling is checkered, there are blue columns with floral patterns, and behind and to the sides of the Medicine Seller are what appear to be giant aquarium tanks populated by goldfish. These tanks also have a floral pattern on them. The dominant colors in the image is light blue and a muted red and the entire scene has a papery texture under it.

Some episodes reach hyperpop levels of colors and patterns, though still using paper-like texture throughout. The results are stunning - I remember pausing episodes on my very first viewing just to take in some beautiful scenes.

A chaotic and colorful image that looks like a collage of Edo era woodblock prints that have been brightly recolored. In the centre is a rectangle with a green-yellow-red gradient that has the name of the show written in Japanese inside it in a large ink brush font. The text is written vertically and beside it, also vertical, is the name of the show in English letters in a small type face that looks like it came from an old typewriter. On top of the rectangle is a cat in human Edo-era clothing. To the right of the title is the medicine seller, who is standing in a 3/4 view and looking at the viewer. The rest of the image is a chaotic collage which includes a crowd of people on a yellow bridge, a red god or demon of some kind that I don’t recognize, an old Japanese building, and a wave that resembles The Great Wave of Kanagawa, which is a famous 1830s ukiyo-e woodblock print by the artist Hokusai.

The title design in a piece of art for Mononoke.

If you are an artist or just like beautiful animation or are a fan of ukiyo-e woodblock prints specifically definitely check this series out it's only 12 episodes but its 12 of the most beautiful episodes you'll ever see and you'll immediately understand why Joel's base makes me think of this show hermitaday hermitcraft smallishbeans joel smallishbeans
