AAAAA THANKS TO @bunnyslize FOR REQUESTING A COMMISSION AGAIN!!

AAAAA THANKS TO @bunnyslize FOR REQUESTING A COMMISSION AGAIN!!

The whole Once-ler family is working full tilt!

Here's my full piece for the VK Onceler Zine! I was very lucky to get to be a part of it...🥹 I used concept art as my inspiration this time: [link] Keep reading below for my process vid and all my director's commentary!

Thank you for being curious! Here's a video of my WIPs:

Deadlines were TIGHT for this zine! We were given only 2 months (compared to the 6 months I had on the previous onceler zine), so to make sure I could finish on time, I decided to do only base colours and lighting, with almost no shading anywhere. Still, trying to balance all the colours took the longest for me, as you can see in the vid. xP

Also idk if anyone noticed, but for the face I chose to use an already existing onceler doodle: [link] Why? Well, why not! I really liked that doodle and I didn't want it to go to waste. 😆

Things that I enjoyed sneaking in:

-the golden spiral! Vaguely, at least! At the very least I hope your eyes can follow the order of thneed production, from the fallen tree at the window to the tuft harvesting to the thread spinning, to knitting the thneed and then drawing up plans for bigger and better things, and then ending with him pulling on his iconic glove to show he's going to take control now

-15 cents, a nail, and a great great great grandfather snail, as well as a tin pail since that's where you're supposed to deposit your payment

-combining things from the 2012 movie and concept art, the 1972 movie, and the 1971 book (e.g. that funny wrench he uses to fix pipes)

-Miss O'Schmunce-ler! You can see from the vid that I added the bracelet pretty late, because it was a late decision to have a Miss O'Schumunce-ler somewhere. I chose her to be the one picking up the pencil in the end, since she's pretty good with a pencil in the movie hehe

-a thneed, a seed, and a (grickle grass) weed on the floor. The thneed is just the first of many that will soon create a giant pile. The seed lies forgotten in the corner. The weed is foreshadowing the future.

-hinting that Lorax and Once-ler were actually good friends, like they were in the Lorax musical stageplay. 🥺 I kept this part of the script in my mind for this piece:

This was aftermath Once-ler talking to the Lorax, reminiscing on their good times...and also being stupid and inconsiderate because the Lorax was in fact there all along as his friend, trying to warn him of what was going to happen. 😔

So in my zine piece we're witnessing a peaceful time before all the real biggering really starts. I like to think that in this scene, the Lorax had been sitting on the Once-ler's lap, holding his gloves for him and having a nice chat together with maybe some harmless bickering, but then the Once-ler gets a phone call so he cuts their convo short and rolls his chair over to the window to answer it. Putting business over friendship as usual, of course. Inspo for the lap sitting comes from this fanart by Emi that I love: [link]

What else...the parts that I'm proud of the most are the stool (I spent 2 days just drawing this stool), the curtains, and the Once-ler's pose. I was close to giving up on that pose because I had no idea how to draw it but I'm glad that I tried again. I wanted to show him at ease during a stage in his life that we never got to see much: the happier and more innocent days of his biggering when he only had a small shop. 😊

That's all, I think! Thanks for reading if you did! Once again it was an honour to be part of this zine!!

SOME DRAWINGS for some questions on instagram (i NEVEEEER use the app but uuhm i used it again) although the last drawing was just some silly doodles of a fem version of the onceler JAJAJJA

Helloo, my amazing and loyal cust-- Tumblrinas!

Today is the best day of the year! (Except maybe Christmas ;-) ) Why? Because it was the day I came into the world! Ha ha! And we all know it was blessed to see me !

I decided to throw a little party myself this year for a change! It'll have two parts. The first one we'll be all rolling out the paper and crayons and drawing together! The second we'll be watching one of my favorite movies!

Now, to make sure we're all being on our best behavior, refer to the rules lined out in this post!

You read all that? You ready to join the festivities? Great!

Another art dump! These ones are all rp-related. :D

1) Barbie and Ken? No, Audrey and Ben! It's mine and @lemonine's OCs wearing the western outfits from the Barbie movie, but with the colours reversed because they prefer it that way. :3 There are just so many parallels between them and the movie in terms of what we've been rping but Lemon's words made me laugh: "shes everything and he doesnt have a job 💖". Bean you are BENOUGH okay.

2) Audrey and her new friend (?) Mela doing that one parks n rec meme because I like their opposite temperaments. Mela belongs to @rafatello !

3,4) These ones I drew for an rp with @bethanygabrielleart where Audrey had to do a big villain boss fight to save her gal pal. The last pic is a screenshot redraw of Senshi from Dungeon Meshi:
