So sorry for not keeping everyone updated on the same page.

we are still looking for options. I wanted to wait until the new location of the site would become ready to use. There's a lot going on both in real life and behind the scenes.

But I promise by this year well get that resolved. If not early next year. It's just been a hassle to get everything working.

Hmm...if this is still open, I might have my next little art project. I'll see if I can come up with something. I might even practice some lettering or graffiti style stuff to kind of get into the mindset. So far, I like what I see all around for different reasons. Maybe I can add something and we can manage to blend everyone's suggestions into something that is distinctly us, and this forum, by extension.

I sketched this yesterday with the intention of cleaning it up today, but I hurt my dominant hand thumb somehow, so that's been put off. In the meantime, I also kind of took elements from Lumaria's design and kind of simplified it. Proportions and everything are a hot mess though.

I also doodled out a few ideas for something like a logo, and I wound up inking this one yesterday, since I liked it the most.



It admittedly also could go for some editing.

I really want to emphasize and encourage others to just design what they feel is the best mascot for MM.

Additionally I've been wanting to design something new but I only work best with a specific type of paper. So I haven't been able to make a gallery or anything.

I figured I had that liberty, but I also agreed with a lot of your initial design and other mavericks' edits and suggestions.

Also, as someone who works with markers frequently, I know that feeling.

I like the idea of a single Men being used for the title.

I think that looks nice too. I wasn't planning on pointing it out but since you said it was intentional, then I guess it does resemble. Why don't you color it?

I'll likely get around to coloring it eventually. It might just be colored pencil over the sketch rather than inking it and making it look all nice, though.

I think I'll get around drawing something again. This time without help. I need to figure stuff on what style I want.


I might try just pixels though.

Shame that I couldn't scan it, but the one laptop in the house that could connect to the scanner suddenly has started crashing at bootup, so once again, I am scannerless. Back to low-qual phone cam!

Anyway, some of my handwriting is a little hard to read, but as I said in my art thread, I gave some flats over the previous sketch to come up  with a basic color scheme, i.e. lavender, black, white, and light grey. I then scaled out to focus on that face. Pity the sliver of lavender I dabbed on her lips isn't as apparent, but I do like the light grey eyes to match the text. I was a little pleased, and I attempted to draw a chibi me with star eyes, but the illegable script to the bottom right reads "lol I don't chibi."

That all explained, here's the lovely half-baked looking tbh attempt!:

Eugh, now that I look at it again, that ear is way far back. Welp...

I think that one has potential.
