They’re gorgeous!!! :0 🖤💛💜🤍
So I went Back to poppy playtime since I couldn’t get serotonin from my sona- but I have Lulu! They’re a bat and was made after the failure of the catnap toys! Lulu was made with a speaker in their chest so they can record and play lullabies to help soothe children. Lulu also comes with three little bats called little lus! They normally helped children in the orphanage sleep and all the children has a little Lu with them to keep track and help. In the show Lulu the bat is made to be a friend of Catnap and they are buddies with Rabie. The trio like to gossip. they do admire Dogday, but they sadly have tried and failed to approach him due to their nerves and anxiety. They normally ran from him. It got to a point the others thought Lulu was afraid of him, but Catnap knows and finds the situation amusing.
Along with real Lulu I also have Factory Lulu who was locked up in a dark area of the factory. If near or you enter the area you can hear them crying in the dark and faint lullabies from their speaker of an unfamiliar motherly voice. Also you can see scratch marks on the wall from their desperate attempts.
For those curious, heres the enamel pin design @qibsichan was talking about! I made it a while ago but I still like how it looks so if youd like i could sell this as a first!
Poll time!
OMG WAIT. What if for the AU, Shelly wasn’t the only one left behind, but Glisten was too??
ESPECIALLY because they were both torn in two
Hold up hold up hold up
I’m making it official
Glisten and Shelly are stranded together in Gardenview until the rest of the toons come back for them
If you have other ideas please comment or reblog them!! <3
Update: @yukitiramisu suggested Forgotten Friendship which is fucking FIRE
One might be the series name while the other is the one-shot name
Bestie’s new and improved token art!! Here’s how it holds up against the old one:
Difference: six months of studying and practice!
Improvements:
Clothing folds
BEYOND insane colour palette improvement
Shading/rendering for the colour layer, including tiny dots in the shadows for depth
Experimenting with gradients on the lineart layer
Better idea of shape and direction - feet clearly flow out, hair is obviously curly
Joints that are built-in instead of being drawn onto normal legs last-minute
PROPORTIONS. I'm not sure how, but for this one it's very obvious Ollie has a small(er lol) body, and it would be easy to mistake them as a kid while wearing kidcore.
Expressions/visual communication with personality
Trying to get them (Ollie) on a keychain. :3
RAAAAAH HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAYDREAMER MAY YOUR DAY BE JOYOUS AND WHIMSICAL!!!! :333
Now he and Dogday can match!
55 BOOKMARKS :0
Okay! Planning time! As of now, Smaller Bodies is 88k words. I’m gonna try to round it off to 100k, though this may a little hard because I still have to get Catnap… apprehended.
Then?
New series, same universe.
Destroy-A-Toy starts when the world ends.
My writing’s currently stunted because of Art Fight, but I’m still writing, just slower. Several people mentioned to me that Sugar Breath takes a different approach to the other stories, in which case, thanks! :D Most of it’s been told from Catnap’s POV, but I wanted to check out how the other Critters perceive her.
I might write one-shots to do with more Theo and Ollie because I love those two BUT. As MrMateusz says: TheoNap.
In no order, here’s my list of cryptic stuff to work on:
Get Smaller Bodies to 100k words
“And Then We All Fell (Silent)”
Pre-Hour of Joy
VERY depressed Dogday
Another cat and dog
Gender phone call + enby pook
SHE’S GRANTING US VISIONS!!
*sprays Theodore Grambell with water*
Umm why is he drawing Harley Sawyer getting his legs ripped off…?
Collect my friends’/fan’s OCs for reasons
Write the dramatic scenes to Edda Hayes music 👇
“Don’t need a knight to guard the cave, can’t count the dragons that I’ve slayed
You can give it all you’ve got
‘Cause love is running through my veins, this lion can’t be tamed
There’s fire in my blood
There’s fire in my blood…
…
And finally, let me just say…
Smaller Bodies is the 1991 half.
Destroy-A-Toy is 1995.
💜💛🔥
I’m curious…
Its reception is definitely different to Chapter 3’s. So far what I’m getting:
Everyone loves Doey
Pianosaurus deserved better (yes he did)
Prototype reveal was awesome
Everyone hates Poppy and loves Kissy
The Doctor sucked and barely showed up
Can’t wait to start writing this :)
I apologise if the colouring quality has holes in it! It’s hard to get solid colours when you’re on paper…
But yeah. Kitty’s getting a trans arc. ❤️
There's a new toy on board! Introducing BigNap! (Unless a more eloquent name is suggested!)
Sarificed for research and condemned to an unsustainable body, Theodore Grambell's old body has melted away at the hands of Miss Delight and Harley Sawyer. His mind has been reignited in a different vessel - one twelve feet tall and with the power to tear a school bus in half.
But it's alright, because while BigNap may be vengeful and venomous, he's quite the dear little kitty to those dang Smaller Bodies in the Playcare.
So much so that he's introduced in the very first chapter of Destroy-A-Toy! It's underway!
Now, Bigger Bodies Catnap's question is:
(He asks because his debut is in the very first story for DAT and therefore his formatting must be worked out.)
Big Catnap, as colloquially named by the Critters, children and teachers of the Playcare, is the new-and-improved replacement for that old, faulty thing who cried too much. He is twelve feet tall and an absolute tank - if you ignore the protruding ribcage and ominous growling stomach.
The same as the Catnap found in the original Poppy Playtime. Big Catnap is a large, scrawny creature with a protruding spinal chord and disconcerting slices of ribcage jutting from his paper-thin skin. His eyes are minuscule and set deep into mouth-like sockets. His fur is abyssal-dark felt soft to the touch.
Deep inside his throat, if one were to look, pipes could be found. Who knows what they produce?
Quiet, docile and allegedly "friend-shaped" (according to my friend Foxfire), this Catnap looks like he can kill you but is in fact a cinnamon roll. At least, to people he likes. Otherwise you can expect yourself to be on the plate.
BigNap is possessive over the Playcare children and loving towards toy experiments - but has a VERY strong hostility to humans. This is an issue because of the upcoming Toy Tour…
Theodore gasses the children not out of obligation but out of concern for their health and sleep.
A creature of this size requires LOTS of food. The problem is - he isn’t given the correct amount. Why drain resources for an experiment that may not survive anyway? As such, Big Catnap is constantly just one bite off from a full belly.
His tank possesses MUCH greater quantities of poppy gas - however, it’s watered down. The gas:
Takes up to 10 minutes to knock out children and 30 for adults
Does not leach oxygen
Works slowly but surely to lull the victim to sleep
This is NOT how Smaller Bodies Catnap works. Her smoke is quick-working and oppressive while this Catnap works much more as a calm, steady, peaceful lull to sleep.
Hey there, I’m Qibs! (she/her) Author of the Smaller Bodies Initiative and Destroy-A-Toy! Lovely to have ya here! 💜🫂
