A confident, smiling purple boy is now floating in my house.
My Sideshow statue Essek finally arrived!! aaaa💜

#criticalrolefanart

I know exactly what you mean! I can hear it in Matt’s voice in my head now 😂 And Essek floating while waiting in the customs line 😂😂 I can picture it so easily!

Thank you!

All those Esseks chatting about where they might be heading is cute, isn’t it? Maybe yours was chatting with mine too. 🥰

Thinking about it makes me laugh a little, he’s a master of Teleport and constantly on the run, and yet I’m imagining him arriving by plane and politely going through customs.😄

A quick doodle:

I received an email saying that the Essek statue has been shipped.

There must have been so many Essek statues in the Sideshow warehouse, all waiting to set off to the people around the world who have been waiting for them.
Ahh, I hope they all arrive safely.💜

I completely agree with you. And we still haven’t been given official art of him with long hair yet. That means it’s literally holding an incredible amount of power and importance.😂

Thanks!
Thanks to Matt giving us long-haired Essek, I get to enjoy drawing both versions.😊

Thank you.💜🧡

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

I wanted to capture that split second when you open a door and accidentally find two powerful wizards in a dark room.

(Honestly, if that were me, I’d probably freeze on the spot.)

Thank you!
This time I actually started by painting the background first, so maybe that helped everything come together better than usual.😊

Drawn with pencil and watercolor brushes.🧡💜

I got the same email this morning, too!💜

Thank you! I redesigned their outfits for skating, based on their anime looks.
Essek’s is all flowy and dramatic, and Bren’s is sleek and cool.
I had so much fun doodling this!

Thank you!
Molly would absolutely steal the show on the ice, and I feel like Beau could totally pull off a backflip.
It was so much fun imagining all of this and even more fun bringing it to life in this drawing!

I have so many plot ideas spinning around in my head.

After everything, Shadowgast leaves competition behind...
only to reunite ten years later and begin ice dancing together.
The thought of it just makes me ahhh 💜🧡

Thank you! I really love this design too, especially the arms.
I quite like how the black outfit stands out against the white ice.
I can imagine him skating through his dance steps in this costume, it would be so lovely to see.🥰

Figure Skater AU

I was watching a figure skating exhibition and started wondering… what if the M9 were figure skaters?
I got a little carried away with the idea and ended up sketching a couple of pieces, so I’m sharing them here.

(Where can I buy tickets to their exhibition?)

Whoa, this is so cool!
I had no idea 3D printers could make things like this!

Thanks for sharing it with me!

Wow, that’s such a great idea!
(It might be hard to actually find one,) but now I really want a beacon bowl!

Me: gasps😀

Wouldn’t it be adorable if I put my plushies in little soup bowls shaped like cats… or covered in stars?!

If you ever cosplay Caleb, please make sure to carry a pocket Essek in your holster and take him around with you. 😄

THEY ARE SO CUTE!😍

Ahhh, I can totally imagine Essek gently keeping a pocket Caleb safe inside his Wristpocket.

Ahhh, everyone, look look!!!
My friend drew the most wonderful comic with maximum adorable aura power!!!

I’m still smiling so big.
I hope this adorable aura reaches all of you too and brightens your day a little 😄

The Wizards’ Cat Tower🐱

When two wizards combine their brilliant minds, the result is… an unexpectedly adorable cat tree.

That soup looks delicious!

Oh, he’s absolutely doing the Shadowhand smile at Caleb but the tips of his ears are that deep plum.

These adorable wizards have completely taken over my brain.

After that little outburst, I imagine Essek clearing his throat and sitting back down, just a bit flustered.
“Ah… that last shot was nearly as precise as your keen mind, darling.”

Thank you.

Working on this piece really expanded the way I think about color. It reminded me how important it is to keep trying new things.
