I promised myself I was going to post this and I forgot! I made an embroidery for my best friend for her birthday.
Commander Cosmo, from The Vice Quadrant by Steam Powered Giraffe. A truly bangin’ space opera.
I used leftover fabric from some pillowcases I made as the background. The pattern itself was lovingly designed by my other best friend @stories-to-the-end. Without her he could have never been created. I’m so proud of our son.
This was my first time using satin/silky embroidery thread and I’m really happy with the effect!

If I had a nickel for every child of Peter A. Walter II who had a giant, blue-matter-affected spouse, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Drawing of Cosmica and the Astronaut I did for Fanart Friday. This was originally posted on my Twitter.
It was done primarily with watercolor with some details done with pen or watercolor pencils.
Here’s the sketch of the drawing.
This is the original doodle I made. I ended up redrawing it to get better proportions and to fit on a larger paper, since this one is pretty small and would’ve been difficult to paint some of the details.

Steam Powered Giraffe heroes and their designated means of transport
Alright, listen, almost all of heroes in spg songs have some transport device/method which is important to their story, included but not limited to:
Captain Albert Alexander and his ship
Airheart and her plane
Rex Marksley and (demon)train he defeated [and maybe horse riding?]
Roller skate king (self explanatory)
Peter Walter IV and spacecraft Cosmo
Salgexicon and teleportation by crying
Leopold Expeditus and walking (unless he was riding on his wolf or something)
Which leads us to the final question:

For the hug prompt: piggy back hugs, dealer's choice
Peter II crouched down,reaching his hands out behind him.
"Alright,climb on."
Peter IV hummed,tilting his head to the side.
"Arent you too old to be carrying me on your back,Daddy?"
Peter II turned his head towards his son,eyes and mouth wide in exaggerated offense. "How *dare* you! I'm still the same age I was the day I married your mother!"
Four giggled."But you're always saying how much your back hurts!"
"Yeah,well,"Two looked around,then leaned in to whisper,conspiratorial,"I only *say* that so your uncle can do all the heavy lifting for me."
They both laughed,but then Four's smile faded,just a little.
"What if *I'm* too old for you to carry me on your back,Daddy?"
Peter II's gaze softened as he turned around fully,placing a hand on his son's shoulder.
"Liten cowboy,"he said,"you're getting so *big* now,you're growing more every day! One day,you're gonna be too big for me to hold! But you're never gonna be too big,or too old,for me to *love*.So let me hold you for as long as I can,and then I'll show you all the other ways I can love you,ok?"
Peter IV smiled,big and bright as a star. "Ok"
"Alright then!", Two turned back around,holding out his hands again.Four wrapped his arms around his father's neck and his legs around his father's waist,his nose pressed to the back of his father's head.
Peter II smelled of oil and sweat and cologne and *dad*.
"Hey Dad?",Four asked as his father began to walk.
"Yeah cowboy?"
"One day when I'm big,as big as The Spine,I'm gonna carry *you*!"
Peter II laughed.
"Well I just can't *wait* for that day to come,Peter."
