Hey so can we all ignore that one weird asf anon please and stop platforming them? They r rage baiting everyone for attention and we all need to stop playing into their hand and just, pretend they don't exist. Turn off anon asks of you need to, delete their anons and just- let them talk to a wall. Answering the weird anon asks is also ruining like 5 Carmen Sandiego tags, starting, and i can't believe I'm saying this, drama, and everyone off and bumming everyone out in the process.

Thanks y'all. I'm begging over here.

Hello! Its been a minute so please take this fanart of Momo and Ivy for abby Trott! I was hoping to get this signed but due to the fires in LA, she had to cancel which i totally understand.

Thankfully shes okay. And thus I finally decided to post this piece which was a collab between @cyanothi and I from earlier this year! She drew momo and I drew Ivy! Hope you like it!

Things the ending of Carmen Sandiego robbed us of:

Player and Gray arguing over who's Carmen's best friend

"I've known her for longer!"

"Well, I've actually met her. You know, in person."

"Guys please, can we just accept that I have multiple best friends?"

"NO." "Absolutely not."

"What about us? We're Carmen's friends too!"

“No offense, Zack and Ivy, but you guys have been around the least amount of time. That automatically disqualifies you from best friend status.”

“It does not!”

Kept seeing stuff about yesterday apparently being national dinosaur day so have some cs dinosaurs from my dino squad au lol

[captainpluto13]

i saw ur fem mime bomb art and was instantly captivated so i would like to request evil carmen and ivy bc girls as villains equals The Best Thing Humanity Has Ever Created™

EVIL WOMEN!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ These are my evil designs really not much changed for Carm but Ivy I took some inspo from the old show along with incorporating her mechanic talents. “The Mechanic” already exists for a code name so I was thinking Ivy’s code name would be “Tinker” or maybe “Greaser”

[holydreamvoid]

Yes, it's my daily cs post (btw changed my user) AND I wanna talk about how much lore has been left out on the show

I get that it's been cancelled (I think?) although I just wanna add these questions that haven't had the chance to be answered:

Who is Carmen's mother, really? Like how did she meet Dexter Wolfe? Did she know that her husband was renowned a V.I.L.E agent?

WHO are Zack and Ivy's family and why are they absent? I know that they might be orphans but it felt like they at least knew someone in Boston that helped them while they grew up

What was Carmen's real name?

If Cleo, Bellum, Maelstrom, Brunt and Shadowsan were merely faculty members then who founded or "made" V.I.L.E.?

If Antonio (El Topo) and Jean-Paul (Le Chèvre) were free from prison, then what about Graham (Crackle)? Would he still face charges?

Since V.I.L.E. has stolen many items and traded them to some other people, What about those people that they've made a transaction with? Would they also get in prison?

RAAHHHHH :((

Here’s my 2024 Art Summary, terribly late as usual! We’re back to including some black and white in this year and my months were very clustered, but all things considered I was actually surprised I ended up with as many decent samples for the collage as I did. I was kinda expecting them all to be messy sketches this year lol.

Just like with my writing summary, this year the questions are a bit abridged since I didn’t do a ton of art. That said, I’m still a rambler haha, so the reflection questions are answered up the cut. The template I used is available here in case anyone else wants to use it!

What events did you participate in (with art)?Player Appreciation Week (old art), Fandom Trumps Hate (offered), CS Case Files Zine (comic!). Not really the type of art this summary is for, but I also created my first cosplay for RCCC!

What was your biggest challenge this year? Definitely motivation. Last year was a creative slump with a lot going on mentally making stuff hard. Mostly in start up energy, since once I got going, things seemed to go alright.

Did you try anything new this year? I got into a comic zine, which was new and exciting! My original plan was far too long for the creation period, though, so I spent a ton of time trying to widdle it down to 3 pages. I also did super messy spot art sketches for a friend’s fic, which ended up being a lot of fun! I also took some screenshots and then drew other characters into the show, somewhat trying to match the show’s style, which was definitely interesting.

Where do you think you most improved? I’m going to go with rendering again! I really love playing with color and lighting, and several of my collage pieces this year were just adding rendering to old pieces. I have a lot more confidence with it now, though I still sometimes feel like my pieces don’t end up as dynamic as I’d like. I also did a lot better at following inspiration and not being as perfectionistic this year.

What are you most proud of? I’m really proud of getting into a comic zine, even though it likely wasn’t that competitive. The fact that I got in for comics despite never having done art for a zine before is crazy to me! I was a pinch hitter, so I wasn’t originally selected, but I’m still honored I got picked eventually. I also am really proud of the August fully rendered piece of Player screaming. I did that one in almost one sitting, probably around 4ish hours, and it was one of my first times doing full color/rendering without cleaning the sketch much at all. Overall, I was very excited at how well it turned out and I feel like the messy emotions really come across!

How’d this year compare to your 2023 goals?Shoutout to past Sakarrie for giving me a straight bullet point list. MUCH easier to work with lol.

2024 Goals Met:  -Number One Priority: Create for me and don’t put myself in a place to get crazy burnt out and still have requirements. If I meet this goal, then it’s okay if I don’t meet any of the others. (It would be sad.... But I would still count it as meeting overall goals.) -Participate in Summergen and PAW Week (Art or Fic) -Have a fully usable Zine Portfolio (Currently need more merch samples and rendered pieces with backgrounds) -Apply to new TOH Zines or other loved fandom zines. If I end up getting into any, I can pull back, but since that doesn’t seem likely, I want to get into the habit of always being ready to apply with what I have. -Play with different brushes and rendering styles -Not exactly art, but I want to have a finalized long-term merch display plan for all my items -Do ONE of the following:     1. 30 minutes digitized so it can be shared with music       2. Open Up Your Eyes fully thumbnail       3. Fanworks for other people’s fics      4. Participate in an extra bang or exchange with art      5. Design and manufacture a pin

The ones that don’t have strikethrough are a bit of a stretch, but I’m gonna give them to myself. While I haven’t added more pieces with backgrounds and need to reorganize my zine portfolio, it is in a decent place where I feel like I can use it and it will accurately represent my best work. I also didn’t really purposefully experiment with rendering or brushes, but it did happen naturally a little, so giving that to myself too. As for the ONE of the following list, I actually did digitize my 30 minutes thumbnails! It’s just not to music, so doesn’t count. Also holy dang, last year Sakarrie was ambitious with the proposal of manufacturing a pin haha.

2024 Goals NOT Met:-Design Handplates charm as anniversary gift (November) -Design CS Charm-Make an ongoing project list to pin to my tumblr. This applies mostly for fics, but that way people coming to my page can see what fandoms I’m actively creating for and what they can look forward to (as well as have an opening to ask questions if they’re interested). -Post more (at least 10 times throughout the year) and add my best pieces to instagram (8+ pieces by end of year). -Draw something from scratch every month, no matter how small

Yeah, these all I absolutely failed with. Oops. Probably gonna be using a fair few of these as my new goals haha.

Alrighty then, now it’s time for 2024 goals!! I think I want my main focus to be to try to draw more frequently. I’ve found that so much of what prevents me from drawing is startup energy, and once I actually get going, it all comes much easier. 

Specific goals: -Organize a go-to zine portfolio for comics, merch, page art, and spot art applications -Try to draw every month (even the tiniest phone doodle counts) -Design Handplates charm as anniversary gift (November?) -Design CS Charm-Make an ongoing project list to pin to my tumblr. This applies mostly for fics, but that way people coming to my page can see what fandoms I’m actively creating for and what they can look forward to (as well as have an opening to ask questions if they’re interested). -Post more (at least 5 times throughout the year) and maybe look into Cara or whatever the non-instagram art app is. -Experiment more with drawing in sketchy art style with full color/rendering -Experiment more with screenshot redraw/character replacements -Do ONE of the following:     1. 30 minutes put to music      2. Open Up Your Eyes fully thumbnail      3. Fanworks for other people’s fics       4. Participate in an event with art       5. Draw and post for a new/niche fandom (Infinity Train, Sym-Biotic Titan, Irondad, The Flash, etc)

Overall, how’d the year go? Better than I expected when I first started pulling up my art haha. I didn’t push myself on anything but the CS comic, and that was pretty early on in the year. I also did a fair few doodle/sketch projects and followed the muse when it wanted to do rendering without drawing.
