I keep seeing ads for the Nutcracker ballet in the metro when i go to school. Christmas season is approaching and shops are putting out their Nutcracker decorations in their windows. It makes me think of my little Winkwell everytime haha. I would like to animate him for the holidays, maybe dancing ballet, or ice skating or something? Mousse also enjoys ballet so it would be cute to make them dance together, but their size difference makes that a bit ... challenging x)

Anyways, here's a little drawing of Mousse holding Wink like a barbie doll lol

How do you get the motivation to do refs

I have like 4 more refs to do before artfight and i am deceased

idk i'm just obsessed with my characters and love to draw them all the time haha

But i would say what helps when i don't have motivation to draw is to make a moodboard or pinterest board for my character, seeing all the pretty pictures that remind me of my oc help give inspiration and ideas for drawing.

Also i watch youtube videos of other artists who make character drawings or prepare for artfight, to get in the drawing mood! Seeing other artist do awesome art always motivate me to make as well.

You can do it i believe in you !! Remember to not overwork yourself ☆☆☆
