A mock retrospective of my 2025, reading β€œA look back at my year in art” next to a picture of me smiling and drawing, followed by a paper with a turd and β€œCRAP!” written over it, then an illustration of an overflowing garbage can with β€œTRASH!” over it, then an illustration of scribbled out mess and β€œUGGHH” written over it, and finally a doodle of Chun Li and its phrase simply being β€œCHUN LI!”

Cheryl Williams (The Evil Dead)
#evildead
Cheryl, the sister of Ash Williams, from The Evil Dead (1981), after she’s been demonically possessed and trapped in a cellar, peeking through a trapdoor. Her hair is chaotic, her eyes red, her face inhumanly wrinkled and patchy. Though the imagery of this moment is iconically creepy and taunting, I’ve instead drawn her resting her chin over her folded arms and smiling amiably, like she’s posing in a photoshoot.

Princess Daisy (Super Mario Strikers)
#nintendo #fanart
A drawing of Princess Daisy from Super Mario Strikers on the Gamecube. She is hunched over in a nigh crouch while her elbows are raised. Her fists, teeth are clenched. She wears soccer garb: an orange short sleeve top, orange shorts & socks, and a small crown atop her long brown hair. Her attitude looks feral because she seems ready to stomp people out in that game.

Hellboy
A profile portrait of the comic character Hellboy, a red-skinned half-demon with shorn horns and glowing yellow eyes. He has receding hair that is tied back in a knot, and it continues as a beard down his ample jaw to meet at a strip on the chin. The collar of his tan overcoat stands up.

Ulala (Space Channel 5)
An illustration of Ulala from Sega’s Space Channel 5. She wears blue headphones over pink pigtailed hair and smiles at the viewer. She wears scant, retro sci-fi clothing that feels like a mix between 60s and Y2K, all of it orange with some light trim. The top is like a sports bra that rises into a flared rigid collar, and below is a short miniskirt that also flares out. She wears orange gloves that cover the forearms, and her left hand is holding her Space Channel 5 microphone (she’s an investigative reporter). A blue ray gun is strapped to her right thigh, and a jetpack attached to her back.

Morrigan #darkstalkers #art
A rough illustration of Morrigan from Capcom’s Darkstalkers franchise. She is facing left in a midair pose, her left knee raised to her bosomsome chest which is barely contained by the dark bodice over her purple, bat-patterned tights. She has long flowing seafoam green hair, and 2 pairs of purple bat wings: a large set on her back, and smaller wings coming out of the top of her head as if from a Halloween headband. Her arms are relaxedly outstretched for balance, the biceps covered by a ring of feathers attached to her leotard, and the forearms covered by pale orange sleeves.
