I love all your thg designs, but your Peeta design has a special place in my heart…. I love it so much that I specifically sought out your blog now that I’m rereading the trilogy bc YES that is exactly how I see him in my head

That is SOOOO flattering omg!! Did you know I actually struggled a lot with Peeta’s design at first… generally speaking I gravitate towards grumpy/surly characters and found it really difficult to make innocent and friendly looking expressions. Also I couldn’t really decide on how to do his hair which you can see in my earlier artworks 😭😭 idk I always had a very strong mental image of katniss but kind of went back and forth on Peeta. So it’s actually so nice to hear that you like his design😭😭😭 thank you so much for your lovely ask <3

THE HUNGER GAMES - CHAPTER FIVE

Finally got this done! I may or may not be doing chapters in non-chronological order….😅

I really enjoyed this chapter! Peeta and Cinna are two very fun characters to draw for me, and this chapter has plenty of both. I never want to draw fire again, though. Thank you to everyone who reads and enjoys these chapters I do!

Also...I changed the typography treatment again. Sorry. It's because I discovered Procreate's text feature and it made my life a lot easier.

THG cover I whipped up for the printed version of my THG comics which i will be exhibiting next week at Comixandria! If you’re in Alexandria, Egypt from 3-5 July, swing by and say hello :)

I really enjoyed designing this cover :) I know it’s pretty typical to draw Katniss in the woods as the cover for THG but I tried to put my own twist on it. The flat style of the background and coloring is intentional to communicate that the wider narratives of Katniss’ life and her subversive actions are being literally flattened into a storybook narrative for the Capitol. (Also, a nod to her limited perspective as an unreliable narrator.) Meanwhile, in the woods, a supposed all-natural safe haven and private space, Katniss is now being put in the spotlight as a tribute in the Games, symbolizing the invasion of her privacy re: Peeta and her relationship to the woods, and the blurring of her private life and public performance into one. All of which I feel are basically a distillation of what THG, as an installment of the greater franchise, is all about.

(Try to spot maybe one or two other things I snuck in.)

Below the cut are the text-free and uncolored versions :)

I love your Finnick and Annie designs. Would love to see you draw them together

Thank you so much! I’d love to do so too but I’m still ironing out my Finnick design - I’m not quite satisfied with it yet as it is now.

[nourtarts]

Your art has made me feel intense emotions that have yet to be coined names. Ohmg Osh...

AHHH thank you so much!!! I’m so touched that my art has reached you :)
