It’s here! I’ve decided to celebrate a milestone with a DTIYS.

What’s the event?

Exactly one year ago I posted my first attempt at drawing Melody! A lot has changed since then. New platform, new medium, and most importantly, new and wonderful friends! I couldn’t have kept it up without everyone💜🩷

More plans than time unfortunately 😅

But art needs to happen!

melodygilman.bsky.social @melodygilman.bsky.social · 8h

And just need some more practice, especially with backgrounds 😭 and I need to decide on a consistent style to work in

And I’m playing around with an idea for a short one about Hazel

It’s a nice change of pace for sure, and it’s fun to see how a pretty minimal change can really impact an expression

And I need a lot more practice in the uniform if I’m ever to start the next story

It’s pretty similar indeed, just at a different pace. Instead of finding herself thrown into a world of insanity, her mundane would can slowly reveal itself to consist of madness

Well I’m not sure if the two from the other post can be included in the normal events since they’re another’s OCs, but in regards to her and Sadako, well I do love a good enemies to lovers trope ☺️

But I suppose that’ll depend on how the story ends 🤔

It seems like it’s been ages since I’ve drawn Melody in her school uniform, so I decided to take that expression practice from the other day and expand on them

I think if nothing else, we can all agree that Cadence is quite a catch ☺️

That would be interesting if she could do that. Imagine that if Melody was the only “normal” one secretly surrounded by fantastical and supernatural people

Cadence:

“Okay fine, the TV thing *is* kinda fun…

…I still don’t like her though!”

[under her breath]

“…even if she’s kinda cute…”

Melody:

“Wait what was that?”

Cadence:

“SHE MAKES ME WANT TO PUKE”

I’ve been trying my hardest to find some quiet time to watch this I already adore the soundtrack so much

It actually took me a minute because it’s been so long since I watched it, but I was convinced her name was Salem like Sabrina’s cat 😅

A wonderful commission of Cadence being the supernatural one for once!

I’m not about to argue with a woman with a gun. And gun shoes.
