Seems like a good time to mention I've been all checked in as design lead on Hazbin Hotel S2. We have the most ridiculously talented team and we've been busy sinners! Look forward to it 😈
My In the Spider-Verse artbook FINALLY found its way to me from whichever dimension it's been stranded in for the last three months and I remembered I hadn't posted any of my own Spider-Verse art yet
I say "Spider-Verse art" but it's predictably all just Doc Ock
@VivziePop
Funniest thing about Beelzebub is the only reason they’re associated with flies at all is because they originally were a Philistine god that the monotheists liked to make fun of by calling “lord of the flies/shit pile”. Original Baal Zebub is a bull so like how far back to go lol
So happy to see so many people embracing our little cringe and free Emberlynn.
Having spent my early 20s as that weeby fangirl, aspiring to this level of pastel goth cuteness, I knew my time had come when I designed her
#HelluvaBoss
Since the 1400s people have been playing around with the idea of various demons being representations of “deadly sins”. There are hundreds of depictions and they get WILD! So if you have your own design concept for a Sin you can just…go ahead and draw that
@Coelasquid
Someone made a more symmetrical and flip-friendly edit and that cat instantly lost a good 25% of its personality and charm.
It’s fine for a drawing to be ‘imperfect’ on a technical level if you’ve captured an energy.
POV Stella wants to cut you... a slice...
I really like the furious bird wife. Ordering your husband's assassination over breakfast with him? Sorry that's just iconic.

So tomorrow’s Helluva episode is pretty special to me on a personal level. The last couple of months have been kind of a whirlwind and I haven’t had chance to really take it all in yet, but I do know that I am so incredibly grateful 💜
For no reason in particular today I'm thinking about this wonderfully articulated interview segment with Stephen Fry, where he talks about the many joys of swearing
This was my favourite shot to key!
How often do you get the opportunity to draw such a brutal throw-down between two angelic warrior women, cracking each other in the faces with furniture! No punches pulled 🔥
I had way too much fun helping design Barbie’s human disguise (along with giving her imp-self a little spruce)!
Very in love with this perfect girlfail so I’m super happy you all get to meet her at last 💕
Beyond ecstatic to finally be able to say I'm now a design lead on

Couldn't be happier to have jumped in with this ridiculously talented bunch and I can't wait for you all to see what's in store for the rest of season 2!
@HannahCCoach
I’m sorry but this is just completely unscientific claptrap. Our amygdalas don’t exist suspended in thin air, they bridge to other parts of our brain that store memories, enable learning, and the ability to identify, understand and process our own feelings and emotions
Reductive discourse around whether depictions of uncomfortable subject matter should be "allowed" in media and art unfortunately plays on a loop so I'm just going to share this excerpt from playwright Jen Silverman's essay 'Art and (Im)morality'
On Thursday I had to say goodbye to my beautiful sweet old girl Luna, so this will be the first time in 23 years she won't be coming through into the new year with me and I'm heartbroken.
There are too many photos of her I love but here are just a few 🧵
rings the dysfunctional old men dinner bell
Come enjoy Angel’s negative rizz and Husk’s lil kitty noises (and butter smooth speaking voice too I GUESS 😏)
Aaanyways Breton’s illustrations are far from the only depictions of demons and demon royalty, but here’s a bunch of my favs from his collection of bonkers little guys
Actually this might be one of my favs. Fucking love the idea you can just snatch a demon up with your bare hands and hold him like a cat who knocked over your onions. It’s good stuff
A lot of the popularised demonology design ideas you see floating around come from the more recent 19th century book, The Dictionnaire Infernal, illustrated in its last edition by Louis Le Breton (who took a break from drawing endless sail ships to design a ton of sick demons!)
So there’s no fixed canon when it comes to demonology. It’s a fluid collection of concepts built on over centuries by various religions, fiction writers and scholars. There is no “supposed to look like” or “wrong” interpretation for these guys only a big pot of ideas to draw from

And the wee cinnamon roll still brags about it.
Fury Road possibly the only recent movie that can take me back to my Lord of the Rings 'tell me every scrap of information about what these babes did on set' days
@yesmaaike
I felt like Mirabel had made the extra effort to excel at crafty things because it was her own personal way of feeling special after she was denied her magical gift. She wore it all over her clothes as an outward show of her exceptional self taught skills!
That goofy old pink doctor was one of the first things that got put on my desk to design last minute when I joined the studio. Today was the day I learned he was voiced by Joel (look how far we’ve come etc etc)
@redthespian1
I always want to know what people mean by “accurate” Hell when Hell is debatably not even a concept in the Bible let alone a literal place that’s actually described. All depictions of Hell are fantasy inspired by theology lol
I forgot to say thanks for the love on these!
Ep7 was a busy one but I managed a couple of design contributions with these two crowds.
When you have a ton of seats to fill it’s very fun to try and pack ‘em out with the kind of details people might pick up on a pause!
Yeah it’s extremely obvious that none of the changes made here are ever for our privacy, but the fact that hiding likes has been forcibly applied overnight with no way to opt out instead of just the very obvious ‘default but optional’ tells me their reasons are entirely shady
@spikermonster
Their point of reference goes back as far as like 2010!
Turning Red is so obviously influenced by 90s anime like Ranma 1/2 and Sailor Moon. They even utilise the anime style cut-away frames, like sweat drops and the screen cracking, to give a visual form to her internal emotions.
Oh heyyy the first Helluva Boss short, Hell’s Bells, just dropped (hope all the sexy LVL UP people enjoyed the first look on the big screen)! So excited it’s finally out in the wild, we had a blast working on it. Go watch sisters being adorable together!

@TheSpaceHatter
These drawings you see shared around all the time out of context are from ooold pre pilot mini commission streams where people would sometimes ask for the characters as humans. They were told many many times in-stream that the resulting doodles weren’t canon
@HannahCCoach
Talking about fully grown adult humans like they’re babies or animals even, with no capability for emotional intelligence, unable to examine or process any instinctive feelings that come up in them when consuming fiction is some wildly infantilising hand wringing
This episode of
#HelluvaBoss
was the very first one I got to contribute to when I was hired onto the design team over a year ago. A huuuge honour to be able to see it over the finish line as design lead months later.
And how beautiful is it?!

episode is here!! Visually, this is I think my personal favorite episode so far. The team absolutely slayed it!! the colors are so so yummy! I am very proud of it all! 💖 I hope you enjoy the return of Striker! 🤠
Nimona defying the odds and pushing through after being dropped from production during a mega unfair studio shut down feels miraculous, but there must have been a whole lot of people really digging their claws in behind the scenes and wow just props to them! Brilliant news!
Nimona is coming to Netflix!

party but ah well. And it's more a Spider-Villainsona, because I definitely do not have what it takes to be a good protagonist and I can admit that
Been working on these ladies for a hot minute and I think I've finally pinned down their designs! The business blonde is Esme, the hippie red-head is Jules.
@hattersarts
I’d always assumed that the original Tellytubbies WERE the juvenile form of their species and that they ended up alone on their weirdly barren little planet via some kind of Superman origin scenario
I’m not ready to process the possibility that Tellytubbies are adults who fuck
@VoicesByZane
I remember playing Riven with my mum over a period of months, filling a whole notebook with the info we found bc all of it felt important for figuring out puzzles later on and learning about the world
So its “what if that was all just openly meaningless generated filler” instead
There's never a wrong time to simp for Kathryn Hahn, but I caught up on WandaVision and had to gussy-up some sketches I did of her amazing face a couple of years ago
