Here's another alpaca designed for Paka Planet, Petraka! One of my favorite designs I had the opportunity to draw, she is a pure outsider that travelled from space and is curious about the colorful residents in her new home. Again, she was sadly not made into a sticker sheet. #alpaca #character
Character sheet of a purple female anthropomorphic alpaca in a space suit with a golden helmet. She has seven poses in the sheet: - Standard standing pose both front and back - Running in pursuit - Starting a campfire - At the controls of her ship - Kneeling on a branch of a tree - Analyzing a strange plant with her bracelet Black and white version of the character sheet Sketch version of the character sheet

The next character I designed for Paka Planet is the fun and brave Jaka! He's shonen protagonist coded which consists of being reliable, willing to fight for his friends and always up for battle though he can sometimes be bashful to compliments! Designed for a sticker sheet that is no longer on sale
Sticket sheet design featuring an orange anthropomorphic alpaca with a yellow bandana in six poses: - Throwing a snowball - Shielding someone in a fight - Bashful at a compliment - Looking over the horizon - Building a wooden sword - Preparing to fight with the wooden sword

Here's the next character for Paka Planet: Linupaca! He's a curious boy who savors knowledge and is willing to spout facts to you. This is one of various characters that didn't get the sticker sheet treatment, but it was still fun designing him based on the cute sketches that were handed to me!
Character sheet featuring an anthropormorphic green alpaca with glasses in six poses: - Writing at a desk full of books - Looking at a bug using a magnifying glass - Standing proudly with a laptop - Fixing up a gadget - Reading a book by candlelight - Showing off a complicated math equation

Here's my piece celebrating "The Legend of Pipi" as part of the Indie Hype Zine, the side digital only zine for @indieanimezine.bsky.social ! It's one of my favorite student shorts so I planned out a fun way to illustrate both Pipi and his heroic self which perfectly describes the vibe of the film.

I wanted to experiment with the combination of BW and color schemes for this piece to help distinguish the past and the present and I'm happy with how this came out!

I highly recommend checking out this free zine!

Here's the illustration titled "The Pain of Success" I did for Unspoken Thoughts: A Mental Health Zine! I've gone for a more personal route where I had moments of feeling if all the accomplishments are worth the frustration, exhaustion and sometimes physical pain.
