Happy St. Patrick’s Day! With that, Jennifer sends her heartfelt wishes for the holiday. Thanks to Christina Weinman for the lines.

Ori & the Blind Forest – #OriValentine Giveaway Entry
I almost missed this one, but was browsing Twitter one night when I saw that Moon Studios were having a giveaway, in which they’d hand out some Ori-themed merchandise based on who submitted artwork. They’d pick some they like, then give those winners a prize. I never tried entering my art in contests like this (I always thought I was subpar and kind of still do), but I just decided to try something and get a piece out there.
This was the final result. I wasn’t too happy on the background but the overall piece was all right. I definitely liked the concept! So I entered it into the competition. We’ll see how it goes.
EDIT: Wow. I actually got selected and won a prize! This is just mind-blowing and completely floored me. I never expected to actually win something out of this. Thank you so much, Moon Studios. You guys are awesome!
You can check out my prize here. I also got listed on the developer’s site as a contest winner!
Overwatch x Cuphead – Color Process
This is the video process for the Cuphead x Overwatch piece if anybody’s interested. This is actually the first time I’m doing a video of my art process, so please enjoy and let me know if you’d like to see more of this kind of stuff!
Impromptu 1000th Tweet/8 Year Twitter Anniversary
So not only did I make it to 1000 tweets, I’ve had my Twitter account for almost 8 years, back when it just about started. A celebration was in order.

The Obnoxious Sidewinder
When I started to do art for the Mobius PVE group, this was a nonsense doodle I spat out one evening, a few weeks after winning their art contest. It didn’t grab a lot of heads but it was still hilarious and a few people got some giggles out of it.
PetiteGames Interview – Midnight Game Comic
Artwork courtesy Christina Weinman
Last year I got to interview William from PetiteGames about his projects. At the time a comic was supposed to accompany the interview (making light of the abrupt piano “death” sound in Midnight) but was lost due to a corrupt PSD. Due to some hardships in 2017 I never got around to drawing this myself, so I asked my friend Christina for help with this. She was glad to, and we got finally done at the beginning of the year.
Do enjoy, and keep an eye out for William’s stuff on the Nintendo Wii store!
Cuphead x Overwatch – New Friends
This took a little bit of brainstorming, but partially grabbed people’s attention. But do enjoy this Overwatch x Cuphead crossover.

Yorina and Dyma Car Doodle
Something random and silly I drummed up when sending someone an e-mail. Yes, Kashri have purple tongues.
Overwatch – Toy Store ROFL
This had been sitting around for quite awhile. About two months before I got Overwatch in 2016, I asked Christina to take Widowmaker, put her in a shopping cart and come up with something. This was the end result.
Apparently it was such a good result, that Sombra’s VA and even Allanah retweeted it. Lots of people loved the idea of Widowmaker in a shopping cart for some reason, I guess.

The Jamaican Biting Pear of Salmanca Doodle
So about a week ago deviantART had a community challenge for a new badge based on a popular deviation that was on their site since 2006. The objective was to draw said subject, in then you’d receive the badge. The original piece is a pear with a very human mouth, known as the Biting Pear of Salmanca.
I got mine, all right. While the caption doesn’t make sense, it does hearken back to when I first saw this; on a meme on 9gag in which the pear had been saying something similar.
It’s been a bit since I’ve posted something that wasn’t me coloring, but this had a different grade of advancement and did want to share. April Fools.
